A/N: Hey you guys, I'm back!
So, I shall not keep you waiting any longer; I don't own Loud House nor The Expendables, they belong to their rightful owners.
And I shall see you guys…AT THE BOTTOM!
Lincoln, Barney and Lee were dressed up in their clothes that Bonaparte had left them; Lincoln was wearing a pair of black denim jeans, a black long-sleeved t-shirt and black running shoes. Barney had a black and red polo shirt on that had a pocket on the front, blue jeans and his usual boots while Lee was wearing a basic white tank top, blue flannel, black jeans with his boots on.
They made it downstairs to the lobby and broke into two groups; Lincoln went with Lee to the couches where the entrance was, and Barney surveyed the bar where Delgado was close to. The Expendables all had radios and earpieces in so they could communicate with each other.
"You got a good shot of him, old man?" Lee asked through the radio as he heard a growl from the leader. "Yeah, I do, infant." Barney shot back through as the Englishman was about to retaliate when Lincoln punched him in the ribs; obviously telling him to focus on the job.
Then, Delgado was heard talking on his phone to an unknown source; it sounded serious. "Do we have everything we need?" He asked in his Spanish accent as he heard the voice on the other side reply.
"Good, we'll hit it as soon as we can." He said as he closed his phone and walked away. Barney knew it'd be a good idea to grab him when he was heading to his room; but Lincoln would need to hack into the hotel's camera feed so they wouldn't get kicked out or get the Romanian Police involved.
"We'll grab him when he heads to his room. Lincoln, I want you to hack into the hotel's camera feed and block the camera that is pointing to our room so we can cover our tracks, we only need about 30 seconds." Lee and Lincoln heard Barney's instructions over the radio. Lee handed the hacker the key to their room and watched him leave.
Lee and Barney nodded at each other and waited for Delgado to head the exact same way as Lincoln; luckily, he didn't see the 11-year-old heading to the second floor. While Delgado was trying to impress the ladies at a bar, Lee and Barney were still thinking about what the main mission was about and why it was so easy.
Lincoln was in front of the room and was about to enter when he kept thinking of the mission. Why is it so easy, Lincoln thought as he entered and went to get his laptop up and running. "Barney, I'm in the room waiting for your signal." Lincoln stated to the Englishman and the leader as he got his software ready; he was just a click away from seeing all the camera angles and the security network.
In the lobby, Lee and Barney were watching Delgado like 2 hawks watching their babies. He had about a couple whiskey and cokes, so maybe the alcohol would kick in quick enough for Delgado not to resist the takedown.
"Oi, he's heading back to his room." Lee announced to the leader as he looked over to see that Delgado was heading towards the elevators.
"Let's go. Lincoln, be ready on my signal." Barney said as Lee followed him to the elevators so they could be there to take down. The leader and the knife specialist got on the second elevator and followed Delgado to the second floor. They made it to the second floor to see Delgado fumbling to get his room key into the slot; it gave Barney enough time to radio Lincoln so they could take him down without alerting hotel security. "Lincoln, blind the camera for about a minute so we can knockout Delgado and take him into our room for interrogation." Barney instructed Lincoln to block the camera as he saw the red light turn off on the device.
"You got one minute before they turn it back on for backup power." Lincoln replied as Barney and Lee moved in. Delgado didn't know what was going on until he was put in a sleeper hold by Lee and was choked unconscious before being moved into the room.
45 Minutes Later
Barney and Lee dragged the drunk rival mercenary leader into their room; tied up and gagged. It was a new sight to for Lincoln to be seeing; a man tied up and gagged while leading to interrogation. Then, Delgado started to wake up and was in shock to be tied up and in a room he knew wasn't his. Lee punched the bastard across the face and was now angry.
"What do you have planned?" Lee asked angrily as he hissed at the Spanish man while removing the cloth from his mouth so he could speak. He just sat there until he mumbled something in his native tongue. The Englishman pulled out his blade and held it towards the man's jugular vein.
"Speak…up!" Lee growled as the man looked at him and laughed a bit.
"No obtendrás nada de mí, hijo de perra europeo." Delgado spat in Spanish as Lee looked like he was going to beat this guy to a bloody pulp. Lincoln nudged for him to calm down and gave him a look as if he was saying 'I got this'.
"Por favor, hazlo fácil para ti. Todo lo que necesitamos es información suya." Lincoln replied in Spanish as the rival leader, Barney and Lee were shocked to see the hacker speaking the same language.
"Todo mi equipo y yo estamos buscando es el Monasterio de Comana. Hay cierta persona y algo que estamos buscando allí." Delgado explained as Lincoln was a bit surprised to hear that they weren't here for taking out a rival team, but because they were looking for something.
"¿Quién y qué estás buscando en el monasterio?" Lincoln replied as the man urged him to come closer so he could whisper in the 11-year-old's ear. "Vlad el Empalador, Príncipe de Valaquia. Su corona vale 80 billones de dólares en moneda estadounidense, pero el doble que en pesos." Delgado explained as Lincoln didn't know what to say; he understood the priorities of being a mercenary, but it was going to get crazy for this job.
"I got the info. I'll be in the bathroom trying not to hyperventilate." Lincoln said as he made a run for the bathroom. "Kill him Lee." Barney ordered as Lee nodded with pleasure and put the Spanish leader in a hold by wrapping his strong arm around the man's neck and snapped it like it was nothing.
Lee let his lifeless body drop down to the floor and went to go check on Lincoln. "Oi' Lincoln. How do you know Spanish?" Lee asked as Lincoln came out and sat on the bed.
"I used to date Ronnie Anne, a Latina. Plus, my sister is dating her brother. So being around them helped me learn Spanish a lot." Lincoln explained as then remembered the job. "Delgado told me that he was here to find Vlad the Impaler's body and crown, so his crew could steal it; it's worth 80 billion dollars. So, we need to find the crew before they head to the Comana Monastery." Lincoln brought up as Lee and Barney were absolutely gob smacked.
"This is gonna be big, I can tell you right now. Right Barney?" Lincoln asked as Barney only nodded. "We need the guys here as soon as possible. I'll go pick them up while you two contact Bonaparte and see what we have to do with Delgado's body." The leader explained as Lee and Lincoln took in the info. Barney hauled ass downstairs and went to catch a cab. Lee and Lincoln called Bonaparte on the disposable phone they had and began filling the man in on what happened.
"So kid, you managed to get the information out of one of the most ruthless mercenaries in Spain…just by speaking calm and asking nicely?" The merc asked as Lincoln gave a sound of approval with a cheeky smile on his face while Lee was impressed as well.
"Well fuck me. You managed to do something we couldn't. Good job, I'll make sure you guys get a little extra in your cut." Bonaparte sounded super impressed as he wrote down the info in his notepad.
As Lee and Lincoln were talking to Bonaparte, Barney was at the plane when he got out his phone to call Yang so he could update him. "Hello?" The Asian asked as Barney got the plane started and was about to take off. "Yang, get all the gear together and the rest of the guys at the hanger when I call you." Barney said as the plane was roaring down the runway.
"Yeah, but Romania has a huge time difference, so we'll be waiting for about 10 to 12 hours." Yang explained as Barney groaned while turning the plane a bit.
"This is going to be the biggest op we've ever pulled; so please get everything ready." Barney ordered as he heard the Asian sigh and give in. "Okay." Yang said as he hung up. Barney knew it was a bitch for the whole-time differences when on jobs; but it was all part of being Expendable.
Hours Later in New Orleans
Barney landed the plane on the runway leading to his hanger where he saw the rest of the guys waiting there outside. He made sure the plane was able to load up quickly and go again.
"Hurry up guys, we gotta move quickly! Make sure you grab Lee's and my gear too!" Barney said as he helped with the crates of weapons, gear and other miscellaneous stuff they needed.
"Yeah, yeah whatever." Gunnar said, not in a good mood, but ready to rock and roll. "So, who's our guy?" Caesar asked with interest as Barney got the plane ready to make another take off.
"It's gonna be Lincoln briefing us because he was able to translate what our target gave us." The leader said as he managed to start the plane quickly this time. The guys were surprised to hear that Lincoln was able to get the information out of the target; but it was time to go to work, so no fucking around. The plane was in the air in a matter of seconds after they loaded up and the guys were sitting down; loaded up and ready to get down and dirty.
Yang remembered what Barney had said to him earlier; it was the biggest op they would ever pull, so they needed to be ready and vigilant. "So, what did Lincoln get out of our target?" Barney heard the Swede ask him as he sat down in Lee's chair; normally he wouldn't allow anyone to sit in his chair without his approval, but he wasn't here to say anything. "You know Lee would be pissed that you're sitting in his chair." Barney pointed out as if it was the only thing to start talking about. "Eh, I don't care right now. What did Lincoln get out of the guy? Are you going to tell us at least what we're going after?" Gunner asked again as Barney groaned and put-on auto pilot to turn to the others.
"Listen up! Lincoln was able to translate what this 'Jose Delgado' told him in Spanish. But let me tell you; the info was very big and is unlike any other operation we've ever been on." Barney announced to the others as they now were extremely interested in what they signed up for obviously in the first place.
The plane ride was surprisingly quick; according to Barney because he stopped keeping track and didn't even pay attention to the time. Everyone checked their gear numerous times; it came in handy to check it repeatedly so no one would get shot whilst in a gunfight.
They touched down hours later and the guys got were a bit tired due to jetlag; but they were used to it. It was 6pm when they reached Romania; they still had to find a place to set up their stuff. Lee and Lincoln were waiting in the little hanger when they saw the plane touch down. They had found a ton of stuff to do to occupy their time; Lee took Lincoln to get food for dinner the night before and today as well, Lincoln had to reschedule the airsoft meet up with Bonnie due to looking like they would be in Europe a little longer.
"It's been almost 24 hours since you left Barney. We got rid of Delgado's body and Bonaparte gave us some known locations of where the rival team may be at." Lincoln said as he stretched his arms due to being in one spot. Barney checked his gear and got ready before addressing the others. "So, we'll split up into groups and check those spots to see if they are there." Barney said as the others agreed to the plan.
"Before we do, Lincoln has to explain why and what these guys are after." Barney continued as he gave said hacker the signal to explain. "Well…these guys are looking for Vlad the Impaler; Prince of Wallachia and he was a horrible person during the 15th century. By that, I mean he impaled his victims while he ate a meal; by the meal being the victims themselves, hence why his name is 'Vlad The Impaler'. They are looking for his body and crown which is worth $80 Billion US Dollars or more." Lincoln finished explaining while showing the pictures he had on his computer. Toll Road, Yang, Caesar and Gunner were petrified by what they were going after. They had to kill these men, so they wouldn't walk off with Romanian History and make the biggest cash pile of all time.
"So…we have to keep these guys from walking off with a dead prince and crown worth billions?" Gunner asked as Lincoln nodded and pointed to a picture of the crown that the prince was wearing in the picture.
"Of course, they'll be on high alert so we gotta take extra precaution." Barney said as he began pointing the groups. "These are the places Lincoln and Lee wrote down from what Bonaparte told them where the crew might be at." The leader said as he read out the assignment. "Gunner and Yang, you two scout the Deane Pub, Caesar and Toll Road will check the Council Square while Lee and I will check Saint Nicholas Church. Lincoln, Bonaparte's French agent named 'Ines' is coming to watch over you with her two guards while we try to scout for these guys." Barney concluded as they heard a throat clear; it was the same French female agent who picked up Barney, Lee and Lincoln before. "Ines, is it?" The leader asked as the woman nodded and showed her credentials, which consisted of an Interpol badge. "I'll be glad to watch over this cute little one." Ines said as Lincoln blushed and kept his head down from the guys so they didn't see his tinted red cheeks. "Yeah, we need also good communication, so we don't fuck up on this job." Toll Road said as Caesar gave him a concerning look.
"I swear on my life in Paris that I will watch over this child and do my work correctly." Ines said as she gave an oath like promise. The guys nodded and took the cars that were sent for them so they can get to their locations. All the guys left and it was quiet in the little abandoned hanger where Ines and Lincoln were left alone to prepare for what was to come.
It was 20 minutes later when Ines began to break the silence. "So, where do you come from?" Lincoln was surprised to hear the Interpol agent ask him a personal question. "Uh, I come from Royal Woods originally. But due to me messing with the government, I took an offer to get away from my troubles and work for them instead of going to juvie. So now I live in New Orleans, and to be honest…I love it there." Lincoln explained to the agent as she began fixing her brunette hair. "I bet it's beautiful there in New Orleans." Ines replied as she stretched her arms out wide; also making 2 missiles almost prepare for launch from her shirt, which made Lincoln stare and blush super deep.
He got ahold of himself and began contacting Barney. "Hey boss, you there yet?" He got a response almost immediately. "Yeah, Lee and I just arrived and will be listening in for a group of men talking about the monastery. We'll contact you when we get something." Barney replied through the radio as Ines looked on the hacker's computer and was impressed a 12-year-old knew how to do something this advanced; but she knew it was none of her business.
With Gunner and Yang
The Swede and Chinese mercs were at the Deane pub, ordered a beer and sat at the back table so no one knew what they were doing. "Do you think we can get these guys, Yang? This is Romanian History we're talking here that they could steal." The tall merc asked a said small Asian nodded firmly.
"Yes, I do. And to be clear, it's Transylvanian History. But I do agree…$80 Billion Dollars for a dead prince and his crown." Yang whispered as he drank his beer and listened for any conversations that had to do with the Comana Monastery.
They observed the crowd in the pub; nothing too particular at all. There was a man who looked to be watching lesbian porn on his phone, a cute blonde waitress who looked to be in her 20's serving beers and other alcohol while the rest of the pub had nothing suspicious in it. Then about 7 bulky men came in and sat started to find a seat at a table big enough for them to sit at.
Gunner and Yang eyed them and kept a close watch on the men as they scared some people out of the pub. "So, do we still go along with the plan since Jose is not here?" One man said with a thick German accent and shaggy hair. "Yes, I haven't heard from him in 24 hours. Something is wrong, but we still move on the Impaler job later." Another replied but with a Canadian accent and brown buzzed hair.
Both Gunner and Yang's eyes widened from the info. They had their guys in the bar with them, so they needed to alert Lincoln and the guys so they wouldn't lose these guys; but if they did, they would be stationary outside the monastery.
"Hey Lincoln, we found the crew. Let Barney and the other 3 know and tell them to meet us at the pub." Gunner said as Yang kept his eye on the crew, making sure not to attract attention.
"Okay Gunner, it's gonna take me a minute, but I will. Make sure they don't leave." Lincoln replied on the radio. Yang and Gunner ordered another beer and waited for Barney to radio them.
15 minutes went by and the group of rival mercenaries were still drinking; looking more shitfaced by the minute. "Jeez these guys should be leaving soon, they've already had 5 shots of whiskey, 4 beers and even 3 White Russians." Yang said as he observed the table of bottles and shot glasses during the guys' drinking escapade.
"Gunner, the guys and I are almost there. We should be there soon, so make sure they don't go anywhere and if they do, follow them!" Barney radioed the Swede as he made sure not to draw any attention to him or his Chinese comrade. It felt like ages, but finally, Barney and the rest walked in and made their way towards the two other Expendables.
"So, are those the guys there at the table closest to the door?" Barney asked the Chinese merc as he nodded.
"Yes, one sounds German and the other sounds Canadian, he had a strong accent though. But the others we haven't identified what their nationalities are either." Yang explained as Barney looked pleased enough. Just then the rival group began to leave the bar, which Barney and the guys weren't gonna let that happen.
"Let's follow 'em Barney, you can't be that old just to let them get away." Lee said as he tried not to cackle from the insult while Barney waited until the men walked out the door so they could pursuit.
As soon as the door closed, the Expendables immediately got up and followed them. When they exited the pub, they saw the men heading towards the Nicolae Titulescu Park.
"Why are they heading to the park? I'm fairly sure it would be closing." Toll Road said as all of comrades were as confused as he was.
"Hey Lincoln, do me a favor and see if this nearby park has a closing time." Caesar asked the hacker on the radio as he heard typing from the other side. "The park is open 24 hours, Hale. I'm not sure what the heck these guys could be going there for. And I know it isn't for dropping flowers in the water or sightseeing, so something is up." Lincoln said as the guys tried not to snicker from the explanation. "Alright, thanks kid." Caesar replied as the guys went back to being serious now and continued following the rival mercs.
The followed the rival to a wooded part of the park when they stopped and saw the group entering what looked like an underground military bunker. A hatched was seen and it looked like the only way in or out. "How in the hell did they get a bunker under a park like this?" Lee asked as everyone else shrugged while he heard typing from Lincoln's end of the radio.
"Apparently they did some underground work in the park and put a bunker back in the 1980's. So that's probably why there is a bunker like that in the park." Lincoln explained through the radio as everyone still looked puzzled. "It still doesn't explain why it's a military bunker. This is weird." Yang said as Barney turned towards them and cocked a brow.
"I'm with you guys on this as well. But I guess we might have to do the same old tactics on this op." Barney said as Lincoln got a plan all well-organized. "I might have a plan, Barney. Instead of going all out with tactical gear, you guys will wear bulletproof suits that Ines has a tailor for and will order some for you guys, take some automatic pistols or an MP5 with suppressors on them and later, take out the rival team before they strategize their Monastery plan. It's also a good idea so people don't think you're all soldiers trying to start war or something along that category." Lincoln explained as the guys were astounded by the details; Lincoln had come up with a good, strategized plan in just a matter of minutes. It sounded risky as well, but the guys have taken risks all the time.
"I think I'm gonna have to go with Lincoln's plan, it sounds legit and no offense Barney, but yours just sounds too boring and old school." Lee said as the other men said the exact same thing. "Alright fine, we'll go with it this time." Barney replied to the knife specialist as they headed back to the old hanger where Ines and Lincoln were waiting.
It was something way different that Barney and the guys were used to, it may have been in public, but it needed to be done quickly, no matter the cost. When the boys returned, they saw either full black suit sets or very dark navy-blue sets in wrapping on the tables with their names on them. "How did these…" Gunner was about to speak when Ines spoke before he finished.
"They had some in stock with your sizes, so I ordered them and they got here super quick. They are right down the road." Ines explained as the guys inspected their suits, and they were impressed with the details of the well-made material that could stop a bullet. Lincoln had a good plan up his sleeve and he thought bulletproof suits would work.
As the boys tried on the suits, they were impressed with the way they fit, and they didn't itch whatsoever either. "Now, like I said, all you guys have gotta take with you is duffel bag filled with a couple MP5's and some pistols. Hopefully, we can take these guys down." Lincoln said as the guys nodded. "I'm hoping that we can take these guys down too. I don't feel comfortable breathing with these guys having a piece of world Transylvanian history." Barney said as the others fully agreed with him.
"When do we leave, Barney?" Gunner asked as he fixed his shoes while the leader lit up his cigar. "We'll be leaving in about 15 minutes." Barney replied while making sure the suit fit right on him; it was a habit he had, he wanted to make sure everything fit right.
"Alright! Let's go!" Barney called out as the guys had their duffel bags ready to go.
"I'll be right here waiting for your signal, Barney." Lincoln said as he sat in his chair waiting on any orders that his boss had for him. The guys made their way back to the park as the sun set to darkness. By the time they made it to the underground bunker, the light posts were on and fewer people were on the streets. "Alright, now let's get this done so we can get paid." Barney said as the guys were ready to go in balls deep.
They opened the bunker entrance slowly and entered. It was dark for a few minutes until they saw a couple lights leading into a room; it was very suspicious indeed that there was a bunker under a park in Romania. As they entered the room, they saw shadows leading into yet another room, then Gunner recognized the German accent he heard from the pub. "Now that we are loaded up, we can hit the road to the monastery and kick off the Impaler plan." The man said as Barney and the guys started spraying bullets. The chaos was real; very real to be exact. Guns blazing, hollering and violence kicking off more deadly than having a knife fight with Freddy Krueger in a Cutco Factory. Barney shot 2 of the men while Caesar and Toll Road got the other 2 with their guns, but the last two got away and ran towards the back exit they had. "Yang and Lee, go after those two and take them out!" Barney commanded as the two did as told and ran after the rivals. The Asian and the Englishman gave chase and found the two standing in a wide hall, trapped.
"Let's make this a dirty fight and get it over with. You up for it, Yang?" Lee asked as the Asian whipped out some shurikens and nodded. The two rival mercs rushed Lee and Yang but were immediately outmatched by their martial arts.
Lee kicked his opponent in the thigh super hard and punched him across the face several times before performing a roundhouse kick to his head, where finally his head smacked onto the floor, killing himself. Yang blocked his opponent's punches and stabbed him in the stomach, injuring him. Then the Asian grabbed a handful of the guy's hair and slammed his down on his knee, busting his nose. Lee then decided to finish Yang's job and shoot the guy in the head execution style.
"I had it under control goddamnit." Yang said as he could not help but crack a small smile.
"Yeah, sure you did." Lee said as he playfully slapped the Asian's shoulder, and the two checked the deceased for confirmation. Barney and the others came up behind them to check on them since they had run off to catch the two, which of course they succeeded. "You guys got them?" Barney asked as Lee nodded while he fixed his collar on his suit. "Uh guys, I don't mean to ruin the victory, but you got Romanian Police heading your way. They're a few streets away so you might wanna skedaddle, luckily there's no people in the park right now for some reason." Lincoln announced on the radio as the guys started to leave. "I thought we'd catch these guys at the monastery. Thank god we didn't." Caesar said as the guys closed the hatch to the bunker and went back to the hanger to meet Lincoln so they could leave.
It was a successful but challenging op at first, but they got it done. Barney thought all they had to do was take down a rival merc team just because they were getting info from the city, but it turned to be something big; and they took them down before they did any damage.
When they arrived at the hanger, Ines had set up a little chair rig with the random pilot chairs that been left in the building. It was Saturday evening, so Toll Road still wanted Lincoln to have some time to himself before he had to go back to school and take his test. Speaking of said hacker, he had fallen asleep moments after the guys had killed the rival team. As all the guys got their regular clothes back on, Barney walked up to Ines and stuck out his hand. "Thanks for watching the kid, I appreciate it." Barney said as Ines returned the handshake.
"It's a pleasure, now I have to get back to my hometown in France, but Bonaparte will bring your payments in a couple days." The French agent said as Barney nodded and thanked her again.
Caesar had carried Lincoln onto the plane so they could leave. All the guys were ready, and the plane started spluttering as it always did, and they were off!
Hours Later in New Orleans
It was around 6 am Sunday morning and Toll Road was sleeping soundly in his bed with his and Lincoln's dog. He decided since Lincoln had to cancel his little airsoft hangout with Bonnie due to them being on an op, he would take them to the airsoft place New Orleans had just up the road to make up for it, since Lincoln had told him about him cancelling it in the first place. The demolitions expert got up from his bed and went to wake Lincoln for a brand-new day.
The Aussie pup followed him as he opened the door and saw the 12-year-old sleeping in the fetus position. He couldn't resist on chuckling as he woke up the young Expendable, with the Aussie pup jumping on the bed to cuddling with him. "Lincoln, wake up. I'm gonna make eggs and bacon for breakfast." Toll said as Lincoln rubbed his eyes in a sleepy manner and yawned. "I'll go take a shower so I can hit the books after I'm done." Lincoln replied as he got his shower stuff ready. "Well, I thought you might wanna go and have fun with Bonne today by playing Airsoft, if you still want to." Toll brought up as Lincoln looked at him with excitement.
"Okay, I'll call her after breakfast though, since she is probably still asleep." Lincoln explained as the man smirked and went to get their morning meal ready.
As soon as Lincoln took off his shirt once more in the locked bathroom, he noticed his toned chest standing out more. It wasn't like Caesar's or Toll Roads, but it was a start for the 12-year-old. Even his arms were changing little by little; it was something Bonnie would screech over in an excited voice.
He also noticed his lower body changing, it was gonna be embarrassing to go through puberty and explain the things he'd go through to Toll Road and the guys, but they were once like him, so it would be smooth sailing when the time came. He turned on some soothing forest music and jumped in under the warm water.
The water felt very nice on his skin, since he hadn't had a shower for a couple days. He grabbed the shampoo, applied it in his hair and scrubbed until it felt covered enough. Lincoln couldn't wait to play Airsoft with his girlfriend later on; he loved her with all his heart and would do anything for her.
After his shower, Lincoln got dressed in a short sleeved blue compression shirt, compression shorts and black jeans on with his black converse on as well. He loved the clothes that he got, but he felt like he needed some t-shirts with logos on them.
Toll Road was flipping bacon and eggs while wearing blue and black buffalo shirt with dark brown cargo pants on. "How many eggs do you want?" He asked as Lincoln put two fingers up, basically showing him. He finished cooking breakfast and brought their plates to the table, along with chocolate chip muffins as well.
"These muffins are for after you finish your eggs and bacon." Toll said as he looked at Lincoln with a serious face, then he chuckled and handed him one in kindness.
After breakfast, Lincoln decided to study for an hour before calling Bonnie for their hangout. He was halfway done with his studying when he got a call from her; and it didn't look urgent.
"Hello?" Lincoln asked as he heard a tired but sweet southern voice on the other end.
"Hey Lincoln, are you back from Italy yet?" Bonnie asked as Lincoln smiled and laid in his bed. "Yeah I am. I just got back hours ago so it was a long flight. Plus, I had fun too." Lincoln replied as he heard a blanket moving around on her bed. "That's good. I just wish we can still go play Airsoft together, we could've had fun." Bonnie said as she sounded sad. Then Lincoln brought up the big cheese.
"Do you still wanna go? I have all day and tomorrow to play." Lincoln said as he heard his girlfriend gasp. "That sounds great! Why don't you come on over in a bit so I can show you my arsenal." Bonnie responded in an excited tone as Lincoln giggled from her voice. "Okay, I just need to get my stuff ready then we can hit the Airsoft field." The hacker said as Bonnie sounded more excited due to her getting her clothes ready.
They hung up and Lincoln got straight to putting his books up for the time being. He was going to have a good day with Bonnie, he could feel it.
At Bonnie's House
The redhead 11-year-old couldn't wait to hang out with her prince charming of a boyfriend at Eagle Airsoft. The place opened last year, and she was begging her mother to go ever since. As she got her shower stuff ready, she saw her sister waking up in their bed.
"Mmm, morning squirt." Brooke said as her little sister ignored her completely while grabbing her towel for her shower. "Why are you ignoring me, Bonnie? I haven't done anything to you!" Brooke hissed as her father came out into the hallway, wondering what was going on. "What the hell is going on this morning, it's too damn early for this." Jack said as his wife came out as well.
"Brooke, what's happening?" Mrs. Duncan asked her oldest daughter who just shrugged her shoulders at her.
"She's just in a pissy mood I guess." Brooke said as Bonnie turned around and softened her gaze. "I just didn't want mom and dad to find out about me and Lincoln." She said as Mr. and Mrs. Duncan exchanged looks and glanced at their younger daughter. "Sweetie…what's going on?" Mrs. Duncan asked as Bonnie sighed and decided to spill the beans.
"Brooke is the only one that knows that Lincoln and I are…dating." Bonnie finally said as her mother ran up to her, picked her up and spun her around like she was young again.
"My baby girl is finally becoming a woman! I can't believe you're dating already, I'm so proud of you!" Mrs. Duncan screamed in excitement as her father came up and kissed her on the head while hugging her as well.
"Looks like I'll be having 'the talk' with him soon. Am I right?" Mr. Duncan said as Bonnie groaned while Mrs. Duncan pulled her husband back into the bedroom so they can start the day, but not before Bonnie spoke up.
"Wait mom! Can Lincoln and I go play Airsoft today, please?" Mrs. Duncan was surprised to hear her daughter ask that question, even though she had to cancel it because Lincoln was in Europe.
"I thought Lincoln was in Europe." The southern matriarch said as Bonnie shook her head in denial. "He was, but he got back hours ago and is home right now." Bonnie replied as the matriarch nodded and gave in.
"Okay, but let me get ready and before noon hits, I'll take you. But you better get ready too young lady." Mrs. Duncan said as she smiled and went to take a shower.
Before Bonnie hit the shower, she ran downstairs to the basement where she kept her arsenal of Airsoft guns and equipment. One wall of the basement was a rack wall of Airsoft guns of all models and sizes; from rifles to pistols and to shotguns. She picked her UMP45 with red dot sight off the lower part of the rack and put in a bag designed to transport Airsoft guns, along with a Beretta M9 and put it in the bag as well. Bonnie also grabbed two chest rigs with some holsters and extra magazines.
After everything was in the bag, Bonnie needed a shower. She was sure her mother was done so she could jump in the shower and get the day started with her boyfriend. Bonnie had lots of friends that went to play Airsoft on the weekends, even some that were a bit older than her went to play.
Back with Lincoln
Lincoln was the in living room next to the kitchen watching television, when he kept getting a thought in his head. He felt like he needed to tell his mother the truth of what was going on, but he wasn't sure if the guys would let him continue on telling his family what was happening with his new life. "Hey Toll, can I ask you something?" Lincoln asked as Toll Road was cleaning dishes in the kitchen.
"Yeah, what's up?" The demolitions expert asked as Lincoln began to tell him what was on his plate.
"Before you say anything, I know I shouldn't do it but…it's been kind of haunting me for a while and I just need to tell you straight up. I think I need to tell my mother of what's going on at the moment. She and I have the closest bond in the family, and she would understand fully of the first decision I've made when I was quote unquote 'arrested'. I just think it's the right decision, but…what do you think I should do?" Lincoln explained his predicament as Toll Road thought for a moment before deciding.
"I think you should tell her. If you and your mom are awfully close, which means you and her tell each other everything, then I think she'll understand the situation. Just tell her that you're helping the government and only the government in the end and providing safety for the teams you're with by hacking." Toll Road replied as Lincoln felt the weights lift off his shoulders.
"I think I'll let my Pop Pop explain it to her as well, just in case." The white haired 12-year-old said as he went to Skype his mother and Pop Pop. Lincoln walked in his room and opened his laptop so he could go through with plan.
He decided to call Pop Pop first, then get in a group call with all 3 of them. He got in his jumpsuit and then set up his scenario so he could reveal the whole wazoo to his mother. Lincoln then clicked his grandfather's contact and waited for him to pick up. Then he picked up and smiled; automatically knowing it was ok.
"Hey, my little look alike, how's life?" Pop Pop asked as Lincoln shrugged his shoulders and chuckled. "It's good; the food is good; I'm getting good grades and I'm now dating." Lincoln said proudly as Pop Pop whistled lowly.
"Good for you, kiddo. Anyway, so you just wanted to call and chat for a while with your grandfather?" Pop Pop asked as Lincoln looked away for a moment and then back.
"Actually, I have something I wanted to do. I want to tell mom what's going on." Lincoln explained as Pop Pop could not believe what his grandson had said.
"Are…you sure Lincoln?" Pop Pop asked as the hacker nodded to the question.
"Okay, get her in the call and we'll talk about it." Pop Pop said as Lincoln added his mother to the call. As he added his mother in the call, the two waited for a bit before they saw stressed blonde matriarch sitting on her bed, surprised to see her son and father on a Skype call.
"W-What's going on here?" Rita asked as Lincoln was the first to speak.
"Mom, can we take this to a new location very quick…away from the girls please." Rita did so and grabbed the keys to Vanzilla and made her way to the van. "Where are you going, mom?" Lynn Jr. asked as Rita stopped at the door and looked back at her athletic daughter. "Just going for a drive. Now I want you stay here and do not go anywhere, I'll be back soon." Rita said while Lincoln and Pop Pop stayed quiet on the Skype call.
"Okay mom, I'll just go play with my soccer balls." The sporty 13-year-old said as she went upstairs while the matriarch slipped out to the van. She drove the van to the nearest store while Lincoln and Pop Pop kept quiet. As she parked, she picked up the phone to see Lincoln and her father waiting to explain the situation. "Now, what did you want to talk to me about?" Rita asked as Lincoln prepared to tell his mother what his new life is about.
"Mom, I know you're not gonna like this but…we have federal government agencies for a reason to help us, right? " Lincoln asked as Rita was puzzled to the question. "Yes Lincoln, we have the agencies to help us set up for a specific purpose such as the management of resources or national security issues. Why do you ask?" Rita said as Lincoln stripped out of his jumpsuit, revealing his regular clothes while opening his black curtain to show Toll Road standing there.
Rita as speechless to see her son not in a prison, but in a regular house. "I took a job instead of going to prison. I'm helping the government by taking out wanted people that they want dead. But besides that, I'm going to school and I'm even working with these guys by hacking." Lincoln said as Rita was shocked to hear such news; she couldn't believe her son was working with the government and helping them. "So...who's the man standing behind you?" Rita asked as Toll Road introduced himself.
"I'm Lincoln's primary caregiver Joshua Kendrick. Agent Church brought him to me so he could work, go to school and just hang with friends around the neighborhood." Toll said as Rita softened her gaze and looked happy. "I'm his mother, Rita Loud. And Lincoln, I'm glad that you aren't incarcerated with other juveniles. But I'm also a little upset that you got yourself in this predicament in the first place, and again, I'm glad you decided to help the government." Rita said as Toll's phone started to ring from his pocket, so he decided to take the call outside the room.
"Well anyway, I'm gonna go before Sue gets on my hind again, so I'll see you later sweetie. And you be careful Lincoln, because when I get back, I want you to explain the last job you went on." Pop Pop said as he got off Skype on his end, leaving Rita and Lincoln alone.
"So…how's school?" Rita asked as Lincoln was delighted to have his mother hear of his school situation. "It's good. The principle is giving me a chance to graduate 5th grade early and I took the offer by taking the big social studies test." Lincoln said as he got out one of his books to show his mother. "Wow! I'm proud of you for taking the offer. I hope you use this summer to study more and more before you start middle school." Rita replied happily.
"Also, I need you to promise that you won't tell the girls about this mom, please." Lincoln said as Rita gave him a look that said 'I promise'. "Anyway, I gotta go now mom. My friend and I are gonna play Airsoft today so I want her to show me how it's done." Lincoln said as his mother looked disappointed because her son had to go. "Okay honey, please be careful." Rita said sadly as Lincoln gave her a promising look.
"I'll be fine mom, I promise." Lincoln said before ending the Skype call with his mother. Rita now knew Lincoln's new life and had to keep it a secret for 9 more years.
As Lincoln was getting his packaged AR-15 ready when Toll came in smiling. "Bonnie and her sister are on the way to pick you and take you back to their house to hang for a while before you go." Toll said as Lincoln brought out his gun with it still in the box to the living room so he could wait for Bonnie.
"Hopefully, Bonnie can help you get that set up, because I gotta fill out some papers and I won't have time at the moment, no offense at all." Toll said as Lincoln looked at him with understanding eyes. "I never asked but, why the name Toll Road?Is it like a code or something?" Lincoln asked as for the first time in his life since he was a teenager, he started to blush. "Well….eh…I went on a date with a woman one time in New York, and I had a bad experience with the toll's up there, hence why my nickname is Toll Road. I plan to tell the guys my name soon, I just don't know when." Toll Road said as Lincoln understood an embarrassing moment in his life.
HONK
HONK
Then they heard Bonnie's sister honking the horn, which meant Lincoln had to go. "Well, I'll be back later…Josh." Lincoln teased as Toll shooed him away with a smile. Lincoln carried his AR-15 into the BMW where Bonnie and Brooke sat, surprised. "Wow! You got the SAI GRY AR-15 Airsoft Rifle! I have the exact same one, but mine came with the Smith & Wesson M&P 9 in a bundle." Lincoln was surprised to hear about how Bonnie knew so much about Airsoft.
Then Brooke started to drive back to their house when she looked back at Lincoln through the rear-view mirror. "She is such an Airsoft fanatic. I swear to god if you ask her one question about the guns or rules, she'll tell you." The older southern sister explained as they were on their street now.
"Yeah whatever. I'm not a know-at-all whatsoever, sissy, so don't go down that lonely road." Bonnie said, obviously a little irritated. As they pulled up to the house, two 5th graders got out and went inside with the Airsoft rifle. "I keep all my guns on a wall rack down in the basement, so feast your eyes when you see it." The redhead said to her boyfriend as she led him to her equipment room. She turned on the lights when they reached the bottom of the stairs and when Lincoln's eyes saw the wall of guns, he couldn't believe what he saw. He saw many sizes of pistols, assault rifles, submachines guns, shotguns, and sniper rifles as well as equipment from magazines to ammo.
"Wow...this is a lot of Airsoft guns. How many years have you been saving up?" Lincoln asked as Bonnie looked at him and hugged him sincerely. "Only 3. I bought about 45% of the guns, the rest my parents and grandparents bought me. So, I'm kinda spoiled in a way." Bonnie said as looked deeply into Lincoln's eyes and kissed him with her head tilted slightly. The kiss was magical because Lincoln didn't remember shutting his eyes, but he didn't care. He loved Bonnie dearly and didn't want this moment to end, until a flash from a smart phone interrupted the whole thing. On the top of the staircase was Brooke, holding her phone from the picture she took. "That is so going on Facebook for grandma and grandpa to see." Brooke said with an evil grin on her face.
"BROOKE! Delete it now!" Bonnie yelled as she began to chase her older sister up the stairs and toward their room, leaving Lincoln to chuckle in embarrassment from the whole ordeal.
"Um Lincoln, could I please talk to you for a moment?" Lincoln turned his head to see the patriarch of the Duncan family standing at the bottom of the steps with his arms crossed. "Am…I in trouble?" Lincoln asked as Jack waved his hand in denial. "No no no, you're not in trouble. I just heard that you're dating my little buttercup, Bonnie." Jack said with his brow raised as Lincoln sweating bullets. "Y-Yes, we're dating. But I swear not to lay a hand on her or hurt her feelings." Lincoln promised as Jack stuck out his hand for the 12-year-old to shake.
"I'll hold you to it. She picked the right one, I'll tell you right now." Jack said as he smiled while Lincoln drew a sigh of relief from himself.
Just then Bonnie and her mother came down the stairs with a pleasant look on their faces. "You ready to go, Lincoln?" Bonnie asked as he smiled and nodded. He then grabbed his rifle while Bonnie grabbed her gun, and her parents carried her gear to the car outside.
While Lincoln was going to play Airsoft with Bonnie, Barney was at his house waiting for Bonaparte to deliver the money from the job they did. Just then he heard a knock on the door, so he went to answer it. As soon as he opened the door, there stood Bonaparte with 4 black duffel bags of money, even though you would know on the outside.
"Morning Barney." Bonaparte said as the leader let him in his apartment. "So how much did we make for the op?" Barney asked as Bonaparte pulled out a chart from one of the bags. "Let me see…" The retired mercenary said as he checked the chart. "…you made $600,000 each, plus another $20,000 from Lincoln being able to get the info out of Delgado." Barney was surprised to hear they would all be getting bonuses from Lincoln getting the info out of Delgado, even though if it was Spanish.
"Well, that's a good thing. I'm glad he got the info out of that piece of shit, plus we were able to stop his team before they hit the monastery." Barney said as he got out his share before diving up the rest for the Expendables.
"Do you want a beer?" Barney asked as the other merc nodded and took a seat at the table. "Now, I got some more pieces of work, but the results in getting small pocket change. So I'm not sure you'll like it, plus it's only surveillance on these Ecuador people in Arajuno Canton. But if something big comes in, I'll let you know." Bonaparte said as he opened up his beer and took a sip.
Barney knew that he wouldn't be getting big pieces of work all the time, but it was good to do what he loved just for either pocket change or big fat stacks of money.
Hours Later with Lincoln
Lincoln and Bonnie had finished playing Airsoft after a long 5 hours. Bonnie had to teach Lincoln how to play Team Deathmatch, Escort/President and many others they could play. Eagle Airsoft had an upcoming event in July for marking one of the important battles in World War 2, Battle of Britain. They would usually mark the battles they would play in when the right months hit, and they would copy them; but in Airsoft.
"Oh my god, that was so much fun!" Bonnie exclaimed as the two lovers brought all their stuff into Bonnie's house after a long 5 hours of Airsoft. "I know. TDM had so much excitement in it with all the kill counts." Lincoln replied as he took off his chest rig and pistol holster that Bonnie let him use for the day.
"No, keep the holster and chest rig and holster. You're gonna need them when we go again next time. But we also need to dress appropriately for the World War 2 event coming up in July." Bonnie said as Lincoln was taken back by her words. She was giving him the chest rig and holster from her equipment rack she had. "R-Really? But this is your equipment, I can buy-" Lincoln was cut off as Bonnie pulled him into a kiss. She must really mean it when he could keep the new chest rig and holster because there would have been a bit of arguing. As the kissed continued, Lincoln put his hands-on Bonnie's hips while wrapped her arms around his neck. The trails of kisses led by Bonnie were going down Lincoln's cheeks and even lower towards the jugular and finally at the clavicle.
Lincoln moaned very softly as Bonnie kissed him with her velvet like lips. It felt like he was the luckiest 12-year-old in the world. Just then, Lincoln's phone began to ring. He was upset when he looked at who was calling him; Toll Road. He answered it after he kissed Bonnie once more hungrily on the lips, making her swoon.
"Hello?" Lincoln answered the phone with a tiny pant. "I'm gonna come pick you up for our workout routine, so pack your rifle and get ready." Toll Road said on the other end of the phone as Lincoln whined audibly and looked at Bonnie with sad eyes; luckily Toll didn't hear it, but Bonnie did. "Okay, I'll get my stuff ready." Lincoln said as he hung up. "I gotta get home for exercises. But I'll try to call you before I go to bed." Lincoln stated before kissing Bonnie one more time, making her the happiest girl in the world.
Later at the House
Toll had some new exercises for Lincoln to try, so he could work on his abs. It involved Crunches, Toe Touchers, Flat Bench Lying Leg Raises, Jackknife Pull Ins and many more. Lincoln had felt like his body was on fire, but it was 'No Pain, No Gain'. Lincoln was super exhausted after he worked on his abs, then he found out he now had life light weights for his arms.
He had to lift small weights that weighed about 20 pounds and a bit more to build up his triceps and biceps. It had been 2 hours since Lincoln had started working out, then Toll came in the workout room and observed the 12-year-old. He was dripping sweat and looked like he was gonna pass out from the exercising. "Okay, you can stop. I've got dinner in the oven now." Toll said as he took a seat to see Lincoln almost faint from his condition. "Go take a shower and just stay in lounge clothes for the night since we aren't going anywhere else for the night." Toll explained as Lincoln nodded the best he could and went to retrieve his shower stuff.
Toll was impressed with how much Lincoln had worked out. Lots of droplets of sweat was all over the big blue mat that he used for the flooring in the weight/workout room. He was making Reuben casserole for dinner, so it was a quick and healthy meal for him and Lincoln; even though it wasn't St Patty's Day, it was that damn good! It had a good little twist from his mother, who decided to add some goodies in it to make it taste better.
RING
Then his phone started to ring. Curious from not knowing who it was, he decided to answer it. "Hello?" he asked as he heard a familiar voice from the other side. "Hi Joshua, how have you been?" He knew that female voice…it was his 65-year-old mother, Dorothy Kendrick. It had been many months since he had spoken to his mother; mainly because of work. "It-It's been good, mom. I'm sorry about not being able to call you in the past few months, I've been super busy with work." Toll replied to his mother as she sneezed.
"If work gets in the way, then I understand. You can always still email me or send a letter." Dorothy said as her son sighed and he ran a hand over his head. "I know. Also, I took in a kid too, mom." Toll said as his mother perked up. "Really? So, you adopted a child, Joshua?" Dorothy asked as Toll thought for a moment before responding. "Something like that. Anyway, I've got dinner in the oven so I gotta go." The demolitions expert replied as his mother understood the situation.
"Ok, I'll talk to you later honey. I love you." Dorothy said as Toll was about to tear up. "Love you too mom." He replied as he ended the call and wiped his eyes. Toll Road then heard the oven beeping; which meant dinner was done.
10 minutes had gone by and Lincoln was out of the shower. He was wearing compression shorts with some blue and grey plaid pajama bottoms on top while wearing a white t-shirt. "So what are we eating for dinner?" Lincoln asked his primary caregiver as he set a plate in front of them at the table where they sat. "Reuben Casserole. It's my mother's recipe that she tweaked a bit." Toll said as he placed the casserole dish on 2 oven mitts that were on the table. The two began to eat and talk about their day; it was a good day for both, especially Lincoln.
2 Days Later
Lincoln was about to walk into his first hour class when he was stopped in the hallway by Mrs. Roberts. "Lincoln, could I speak with you in my office." She said in a chill tone as Lincoln followed her to the office. As soon as they walked in, she motioned for him to sit, which he did. "Now today is the day you can study in your science class since you're ahead in it and you won't need to do work for it today or tomorrow." Mrs. Roberts said as Lincoln looked happier than a hungry baby in a topless bar.
"Thanks Mrs. Roberts, I really appreciate it. But I've also been studying at home in advance. But I guess I can go over what I have and keep studying to confirm what I have." Lincoln said as Mrs. Roberts looked as if she had something else to say. "But there is something else I want to talk about. I saw the other day while looking through the cameras, that you were involved in a scuffle with Damien Barnett in the hallway. Is it true or was I seeing things?" Mrs. Roberts asked with a stern tone as Lincoln looked shocked; but he knew not to lie to the principal about this.
"Yes. It was only because Damien pinned me against the locker and called Bonnie a redneck. But if there's a consequence, I'll accept it." Lincoln said with his head down.
"You will have one lunch detention only for today. But if I see this again, you will not graduate on time, do you understand me?" Mrs. Roberts asked as Lincoln nodded to her tone. "You can go to class now. I'll call Ms. Buckalew that runs the ISS room, so she can expect you when you bring your lunch there." The principal said as Lincoln grabbed his backpack and went to his classroom.
Lincoln made his way towards his 1st period class/homeroom and sighed heavily. Lunch Detention, that's just great he thought as he walked in the door and told Mr. Michaels where he was. The day went on until Science class; it was good for the 12-year-old so he could study a bit more for the Social Studies test.
Mr. Cortez was a burly man with some fat around some parts and he was in his late 30's, he loved his job and he loved working with kids. He knew Lincoln was able to study this hour since he was ahead in class. He watched him walk in and sit at his desk, where he placed a note with a Jolly Rancher candy with it. Lincoln read the note and was surprised to see the compliment written on it. Great work on getting your assignments done, Lincoln. –Mr. Cortez
Lincoln still had 2 pages to study in his textbook, so it wasn't much longer before he was done, be he had to step on it if he wanted to get it finished today. The class went on smoothly while everyone did their work. It was a little quiz that everyone had to do, nothing fancy, just something they had to recap to what they worked on.
Meanwhile with Toll Road
The demolitions expert was paying bills when he got a phone call from the…principal! "What's going on now?" Toll asked himself as he answered the phone. "Hello?" He asked as he heard the familiar voice from the other side of the phone.
"Hi Mr. Road. It's Melanie from the school, and I apparently have some bad news that applies Lincoln." She said as Toll's face looked upset now. "What did he do?" He asked as Mrs. Roberts sighed a bit before explaining. "If you're home and if it's okay with you, I can come over and we can talk." Mrs. Roberts said with a bit of nervousness in her voice, which Toll didn't hear thank god.
"Yeah sure, I'll message you the address in a bit. When can come over?" Toll asked as he heard paper moving around on the other end of the phone. "I can start heading that way in about 10 minutes." She replied with shakiness in her voice, which Toll thought to be the chilly air conditioning. "Okay, see you in 10." Toll noted as he hung up and finished paying the bills.
10 Minutes Later
Mr. Roberts pulled her grey 2012 Nissan Altima up to Toll's house and she stepped out. "This is a nice neighborhood that he lives in." She commented to no one as she went to the front door. As she knocked, she noticed the paintball gear laying in a box next to the door, which she raised an eyebrow to. Then the door opened to Toll Road wearing his black henley with black jeans and socks; where it also gave the principal a chance to notice his built muscles. "Hey. You want some coffee?" Toll said as he motioned her to follow him inside.
"That'll be great. I appreciate you taking the time out of your day so we can talk about Lincoln." Mr. Roberts said as Toll winced internally. He hoped Lincoln didn't get in trouble, but there wasn't a possibility he was an angel. "Now, what happened?" Toll asked as he prepared the coffee maker while the principal sat at the table. "Well, there was this student that started a fight with Lincoln by shoving him against a locker and that the student called another student a redneck, which triggered Lincoln to use some very heavy martial arts on him." Mrs. Roberts said as Toll knew Lincoln had to protect himself, but at school was a tad different.
"What was Lincoln's consequence?" Toll asked as he brought the principal her coffee in a styrofoam cup. She took a big sip of her coffee before coughing a bit. "It was only 1 lunch detention he has to serve today, that's it." The principal said as she waited for the man's response.
"I'll talk to him after he gets home. I just never thought it'd be this hard to raise a child." Toll sighed as the principal felt bad for him and went to reach for his hand, only to knock his cup of hot coffee on his crotch. "Son of a bitch!" Toll hissed as he felt the hot liquid leave a big stain on his jeans.
"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! Let me clean it up for you." Mrs. Roberts said as she dug into her purse and retrieved some tissues that were clean. "Hey hey hey, it's fine." Toll said as he tried to keep a low voice while the woman tried to rub his crotch with the tissues to get the spilled liquid out of his jeans.
"Are you sure. I can help you get this out." Mrs. Roberts said as her hands were still on the man's crotch while he suddenly placed his hands over hers. "It's 's…okay." Toll finally said between breathes as he stared into the woman's beautiful green eyes.
They locked eyes for a few moments before the principal decided to close the gap. "Kiss me." All was said with a breathless tone, that Toll heard. And holy shit he went for it; he kissed the woman he loved from when he first met her at the school. Kristy Vermillion was pretty and all, but she couldn't match to Melanie Roberts. Wait, wasn't Mrs. Roberts married?
He broke the kiss and looked at her with confusion. "What's wrong Josh?" She asked as Toll grabbed her left hand softly to reveal her wedding ring. "I thought you're married. If so, why are you cheating on him?" Toll asked as Mrs. Roberts blushed a bit.
"I knew he was cheating on me first with a younger woman. I set up a camera in the bedroom last week and it caught him fucking a younger slut in my bed! So, this is what he gets. Besides, you're way better than his chubby ass." She explained as Toll could not believe what he heard.
He dove right back into the kiss and the two went at it before she began to work on his zipper of his jeans. Toll pulled away from the kiss and whispered something in her ear. "Let's take this to my room." It was all he could say because he wanted to get right back into the sexual moment. The two went to Toll's room where he had a lovely mattress, just in case of 'moments' like this.
She had him sit down on the mattress where he handed her a pillow for her knees. They both had cheeky grins as she slowly pulled the zipper down the rest of the way, waiting to see the rest of him. After she had gotten his pants off, she now worked on his boxers, which he stood up for that part. As they slid down, she saw his member; it was a good sight to see. She massaged him and got some good noises out of the man. She giggled like a little schoolgirl when he reached for her head, which she knew what he wanted.
"Since you're a bit impatient, I'll just do this then..." Melanie said as she took him whole as Toll Road couldn't hold back and he let out a loud groan. She continued to pleasure him for an eternity it seemed like to him until she started to strip out of her clothes. Toll was amazed on how good of a woman could pleasure a man like him that had so many wonders under the rough layers.
She then straddled his waist and guided his member into her. She kissed him once more and the love making started slowly. Melanie placed her hands-on Toll's cheeks and began nipping at his lips and giving him soft love bites. Toll began to slither his left hand down her back and give her ass cheek a squeeze, which it got a soft yelp out of her.
The two made love until their releases came unexpectedly, which came too quick to be honest. Toll and Melanie were left snuggling up and entangled in the sheets of Toll's bed. "I love you Josh." Melanie said sweetly as she laid her head down on his chest. "I…love you too Melanie." Toll replied as he was surprised to finally say those words to someone he loved.
"So, what are you gonna do about whole marriage situation?" Toll asked as he fixed the hair Melanie's ear. "I'm gonna file for divorce and confront him with the video tape." Melanie said while Toll Road was pleased to hear. The two laid in bed for a while until they heard the front door open. "Toll, I'm home!" It was Lincoln. Plus, Toll Road and Melanie were still naked and under the sheets. They scrambled to get their clothes on as quietly as they could before Lincoln knew what was going on.
As soon as they finished, Toll needed to have a distraction so he could have Melanie come out of the bathroom like she was there a while and needed to use it. He got his compression shorts on and poked his head out of his bedroom door while holding his mailbox key.
"Lincoln, can you check the mail, please?" Toll said as the young hacker smiled and took the key so he could go to the mailbox. As soon as Lincoln walked out the door, Toll Road told Melanie the mini plan and they went with it; when, she did have to use the restroom, badly.
When Lincoln came back with the mail, Melanie came out of the bathroom, which it confused Lincoln. "Mrs. Roberts? What're you doing here?" Lincoln asked as he handed the junk mail to Toll Road. "Oh I was discussing your little fight in the hall with Joshua here. But he thinks the lunch detention you served was enough, since you didn't initially start the fight." Melanie said as she winked at Toll Road, who winked back.
"I should be off now; I'll be in touch about the test soon." Melanie said as she grabbed her things and walked out the door. After she left, there was an awkward silence in the living room; the two males didn't say a word for about 2 minutes until Toll Road spoke up.
"So how about I make Tangy Braised Balsamic Chicken with sautéed mushrooms and rice." Toll suggested as Lincoln's stomach made his decision for him. Toll chuckled and went to get the stuff ready for dinner. "Why don't you work on Push Ups, Medicine Ball Twists and Leg Raises. There is a book in there on how those exercises just in case." Toll said as Lincoln went to work on his exercises while dinner was being made a bit early.
Friday (Day of the Test)
It was the day of the big test for Lincoln. He had to make sure he was on point for the questions, so he didn't mess up. Said hacker had just gotten out of the shower and into some dry clothes, then Toll Road came in to check on him before they left. Lincoln was wearing a green and black flannel with dark blue jeans while Toll was wearing a beige button up shirt with black cargo pants. God why did he like cargo pants so much?
"You ready for the test today?" Toll said as he sat down in the computer chair while Lincoln was sitting on the bed getting his shoes and socks on. "Not really, but I guess I gotta push the branches away and focus on getting out of the jungle." Lincoln said as Toll Road got the meaning immediately. "Just remember all the notes you've studied and just do it." Toll explained as Lincoln tied his shoes.
"Now, I've made eggs and fried potatoes for breakfast. Let's go eat so I can take you to school. Plus we still need to figure out a name for the dog." Toll said as he and Lincoln walked into the kitchen to eat breakfast as well as figure out name for their canine friend.
As the two sat down and at breakfast, the news was playing on the radio and Lincoln decided to listen while he ate breakfast.
"Oh my god! I can't believe he decided to rob a pawn shop when there was 2 New Orleans Police Officers in there already. Maybe next time Matt, he'll think twice." The woman reporter laughed while her reporter friend laughed along too. "I agree, Abbey. Now he'll have 8 years to think about it." They laughed as Lincoln now had a gleaming idea on what their dog's name should be, Abbey.
"Hey Toll, I think I've found the perfect name for the dog." Lincoln said as the man had a mouthful of eggs, turned towards the hacker. "Abbey. Like from the woman on the radio. How does that name sound?" Lincoln said as Toll looked stunned to the name. Then he smiled and nodded to the simple, yet sound soothing name that could go well with an Aussie Shepherd. "Abbey the Australian Shepherd it is." Toll said as he and Lincoln resumed their breakfast.
The two finished their breakfast and were off to the school. It was an appealing morning outside; the breeze was marvelous, and the birds chirped together a song. As Toll drove the car, the morning was so damn beautiful he couldn't take his eyes off the sky. Toll Road had been living in New Orleans for 9 years and had been working with the Expendables for about 8, so he kind of missed his original home in Washington State. He missed his mother, brother and the home he grew up in. But this was his secret life now and he had to keep it a secret for as long as he could. The things he'd done in his past with the Expendables he wasn't proud of, but that's what made the guys human, even if they were soldiers of fortune.
They pulled up to the school and both Expendables got out of the car to walk into the school. "Now, Tool and Caesar are gonna pick you up because I have to go to see my doctor. So they'll pick you up a bit early and Tool will have you work around the shop for a bit before I can pick you up there." Toll Road said as they walked into the building while Lincoln accepted the information.
Toll Road and Lincoln went up to the office and saw the principal standing there, waiting for them. "Hey Mrs. Roberts, we're here to discuss the test info." Lincoln said as the woman smiled and invited them into her office. "Okay, now today you will be taking the test in the detention room around 3rd period, so they'll pull you out of the beginning of 3rd period, so you take it. Plus, it is not a timed test, so you will have all day to do it and its 75 questions. Does that sound good to you?" Mrs. Roberts said as Lincoln nodded and Toll shook her hand, getting a blush and a wink out of her too.
"You can go now, Lincoln. I'm gonna take to your caretaker for a bit." Mrs. Roberts said as Lincoln did as so and went to meet up with Bonnie before school started. As Lincoln walked out of the office, he went towards to his locker and sat down in front of it to talk to the audience. "So, as you now know; today is the big test to see whether if I can graduate 5th grade early or not. I'm a bit nervous, but I've studied long and hard for it. All I have to do is think clearly and use perseverance to complete it." Lincoln started to say before he saw other students coming into the building, especially Bonnie. "Today is gonna be a good day…I hope." Lincoln continued as he got up to see Bonnie, who was smiling when they saw each other.
