Chapter 86
(Great Lake City, Saturday)
Ronnie Anne is waiting at the park for her friends to arrive and when I mean friends I don't mean Sameer, Nikki, Taber or Sid.
Her skate boarding gang are busy with some homework and junk, she got a call from Sid that she's looking for a missing green and red bird.
"Where the heck are they?" Ronnie Anne says to herself. Ronnie Anne was getting worried because earlier she saw her abuela watching her favorite TV show about some guy who predicts fortunes and it was about the people who have the fire sign and she was one of them.
The guy on TV said that she will soon find love on that day and she was getting worried that the love he might be talking about could be her best friend, but she didn't know if it was even going to be true and she didn't know if she should ask her Abuela, so she asked the one person who could help or better yet, a couple of people who could help.
Meanwhile at the Mercado, Rosa spots Vanzilla arriving. "Oh Dios mio! It's happening, Ronnie Anne will find love today and it's Lincoln!"
Lori comes out followed by Luna, Sam, Lincoln and Jordan and Patriot lands on Lincoln's arm.
"Oh no! That Jordan girl is here! What am I going to do now?!" said Rosa.
They soon meet up with Bobby, CJ, Carlos and Carlotta.
Carlos saw Sam and tried to flirt with her. Sam thought it was creepy. "Sorry little guy, I'm taken by this gal."
Luna blushes and Sam puts her arm around Luna's waist.
Carlos is completely confused. "Girls can like each other? Is that even true?"
He looks to Carlotta. "It is."
Bobby then leads Lori into the Mercado and he tells Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Sam that Ronnie Anne is waiting for them at the park.
"Thanks Bobby" said Lincoln.
"Let's hope the grandma isn't going to make things difficult for all of us" replied Jordan.
"If she does she has to get by me first" said Luna.
"I'll back you up on that one babe" replied Sam.
"Still, I wonder why would Ronnie Anne wanna talk to Luna and Sam as well" said Lincoln.
Then Jordan remembers why. "I think I know, but we're gonna have to meet her first."
Luna and Sam were confused by this.
Lincoln then let's Patriot fly. "Fly ahead buddy and f you see Ronnie Anne, just wait by her."
Meanwhile Rosa couldn't hear what was going on. She then sees Sergio. "Sergio, I need you to do something for me."
"As long as I get something in return" replied Sergio.
"You can have ten of my Tamales before dinner" replied Rosa.
"Deal! I was gonna go with whatever I wanna order on TV, but that works too" Sergio flies out the window with headsets and a satellite recorder.
Rosa sighs. "Glad I made the deal before he did, otherwise I'd go crazy!"
She doesn't even notice a green bird fly by the window.
Soon Lincoln and the others make it into the park and they spot Ronnie Anne stroking the feathers of Patriot.
Patriot squawks and she sees Lincoln and the others. "Hey guys, glad you all made it."
"We're happy to be here too. But why bring Luna and Sam?" asked Lincoln.
"You're lucky we don't have any gigs this weekend" said Luna.
Ronnie Anne sighs. They can tell something was wrong, but Jordan already knew. "Take as eat guys."
"So, what's wrong dude?" asked Sam.
"Well, you see earlier I saw my Abuela watch her favorite horoscope show and the guy said that it was a horoscope for those with the fire sign, like me. Then he said that those with the fire sign will find love today" replied Ronnie Anne.
Lincoln then figures it out as well. Jordan smiles at her boyfriend's look. "I already figured it out before you did Linc."
"So, is this about Sid?" asked Lincoln. Ronnie Anne nods her head nervously.
"Then why are you so worried dude?" asked Luna.
"Do you like her?" asked Sam.
"That's the problem! I don't know, Sid and I are best friends and some part of me feels like she's more than just a friend" replied Ronnie Anne.
Luna and Sam smile, they both know what she's going through.
"So, that's why Sam and I are here as well, you want some words of advice from two gals who like each other as well" said Luna.
"Well, you made the right call Santiago" said Sam.
Ronnie Anne blushes. "H-How did you two figure it out? When did it all begin for you two?"
"Well, I guess it started when we first went to our first concert. I met Sam in the line and it turns out she was headed to the same concert as I was" said Luna.
"At that time Luna had no clue who she was or what her talent would be, we talked, shared some laughs and pretty much enjoyed each other's company in line" said Sam.
"When we got to the ticket booth, Sam and I were seated in separate areas. But it didn't matter, we felt like as long as we're in the same place, we would be comfortable" said Luna.
"And when Luna was pulled on stage I was shocked and then she just became someone else, someone I felt deeply for" said Sam.
"So, I guess that's where our spark kinda grew" said Luna.
"The day I realized who my deepest emotions go to" said Sam.
"And who I truly was" said Luna.
Ronnie Anne was amazed. "B-But how did you two know you both liked each other?"
Luna and Sam smiled and looked at each other.
"To be honest, we had our own conflicts as you did" said Sam. "I was afraid of being this girl who likes this girl and I didn't wanna hurt someone's feelings, or my parents."
"I was trying to figure out what kinda teen I was, then I met Sam again and that's when it hit me, in the heart" said Luna.
"I was shy when I wanted to tell Luna how I felt, but then I saw how she felt nervous around me. So I just went with it and knew she was into me" said Sam.
"Then it all came down to the sending the secret love letter thing" said Luna.
"I knew it was Luna's, she was the only one who is in my age with the initials L. Loud. I decided to just pretend for a bit and wait for the moment to confess how I felt about her" replied Sam.
"Then the rest of it was history when we all went to our very first KISS Concert" said Luna.
"So technically it was Lincoln and Jordan who brought us closer" said Sam.
"Well, I wanted to go backstage with Smooch" said Lincoln.
"Then things didn't go as planned and I came in and brought them someplace else" said Jordan.
Ronnie Anne was amazed, all this started when Luna and Sam were in the 7th grade, kinda like her and Sid.
"S-So, what should I do?" asked Ronnie Anne.
"Well, do you like to hang out with Sid?" asked Luna.
"We hang out almost all the time, even when we're too busy with something else" replied Ronnie Anne.
"Do you two have a lot in common or something's you both can't get right?" asked Sam.
"Well, I like Lucha wrestling and Sid is good with Robotics, I'm good with Pottery and Sid is cool with knitting and so we put Wrestling and Robotics together and made something new" replied Ronnie Anne.
Luna and Sam knew it was unfolding. "Then that's the case dude, Sam and I have a lot of thing we don't have in common" said Luna.
"But we both have one thing in common, we're both horrible at baking" said Sam.
"And we knew we were perfect for each other" said Luna.
Jordan then looks to Ronnie Anne and sees a smile. "So, do you like Sid?"
Ronnie Anne looks down nervously again. "I-I guess, but I don't know if she like me back. Our friendship is gonna be super awkward."
They knew Ronnie Anne was going through some complicated stuff. "Don't worry about it too much, why not just ask her?" said Lincoln.
Ronnie Anne wasn't sure if she should. Tell her bestie that she likes her more than a friend or just wait.
"It's okay Ronnie Anne, we won't push it. You can be patient and wait" said Jordan.
"Like me and Sam, though it took us till we were fifteen for that to happen" said Luna.
"And that was a lot of emotions bottled inside us, but we held our own" replied Sam.
Ronnie Anne was feeling confident. "You know what? I'm gonna do it! I'm gonna tell Sid how I feel!"
They were shocked, but this was Ronnie Anne we're talking about here and she doesn't back down no matter what.
"Go and get her dude" said Luna. "We got your back" said Sam.
"We're all friends here Ronnie Anne" said Lincoln. "Just relax and stay calm" said Jordan.
But then Ronnie Anne remembered something. "Oh wait, I can't tell her now!"
They were all confused again. "Why not?" asked Lincoln.
"She said she's looking for some green and red bird that escaped" replied Ronnie Anne.
Patriot squawks at something that lands on Ronnie Anne's head.
"You mean that green and red bird?" said Sam.
Ronnie Anne grabs the bird and holds it. "Ronnie Anne! You found him!" yelled Sid with a net and a bag of bird feed.
"Whoa! You got here on time" said Lincoln.
"Sid then notices them. "Oh hey guys. Ronnie Anne didn't tell me you guys were coming."
"Well, the thing is, Ronnie Anne called us here for a reason" said Jordan.
"A reason that also involved you" said Lincoln.
Sid looks at Ronnie Anne and sees her nervous face. "Ronnie Anne? What's wrong? What does this have to do with me?"
Ronnie Anne was getting even more nervous, but she saw the comforting smiles from Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Sam. All of them mouthing the words, 'you got this!'
Ronnie Anne takes a deep breath and hands Sid the bird. Sid then takes the bird.
"Sid, we've been friends ever since you first moved here and I'm happy for it. We became the best of friends" said Ronnie Anne.
"Well of course, you and I we're like two of a kind" said Sid.
"Yeah and we have a lot of ups and downs. Well not much but we do have some things in common and some things we can't really get into our heads" said Ronnie Anne.
"Well, we both like skateboarding, listening to K-Pop, we both made Robot Wrestling and we both come up with amazing plans, even though they tend to backfire in the end we still manage to hold our own!" replied Sid.
Ronnie Anne blushes hearing this. "Anyway, I kinda had this weird feeling inside of me. Ever since the whole School club thing."
Sid was a little confused by this. "What kind of weird feeling? Like there's something going on in your heart feeling?"
Ronnie Anne looks at Sid confused. "Yeah."
Sid puts the bird next to Jordan. "Like, I feel weird and don't know why I have this feeling when I'm around you kinda feeling?"
Ronnie Anne is shocked by this. "Yeah."
Sid is now right in front of her and both girls blush. "Like …. I like you more than a friend kinda feeling?"
Ronnie Anne and everyone else was shocked and all of them are thinking the same thing. 'She knew?!'
"Y-Y-Yeah" replied Ronnie Anne nervously.
Sid then sighs. "You have no idea how long I've been trying to get that out of my chest Ronnie Anne. Because I kinda like you more than a friend."
Ronnie Anne blushes. "R-Really? Me too!"
Both girls know feel awkward. "So, this isn't gonna make our friendship awkward is it?" asked Sid.
"Well, we don't have to make it feel awkward. We're both 12, we both like a lot of things and have some other thing's we're not in common with and we're both neighbors and pretty much the best of friends and tend to hang out. Like a lot" replied Ronnie Anne.
Sid giggles. "Yeah, that is true. So, know what?"
"Well, I guess we can just start with just maybe some small mushy stuff. But not too much! You know how I am" said Ronnie Anne.
Sid smiles. "Of course dude! The tough girl in the block! The skate board mistress!" Sid then mimics an announcer voice. "The Hispania-Mania!"
They all chuckle at Sid.
"Well, I guess this is the start of something ne-" Ronnie Anne is caught off guard when Sid gives Ronnie Anne a small peck on the cheek.
The others gasp.
Ronnie Anne looks at Sid, who is smiling nervously at her. "Sorry about that, but you did say small mushy stuff and a quick peck is pretty much small mushy stuff."
Ronnie Anne places her hand on her cheek and blushes. "Yeah, it is. But not in public, we can hold hands, maybe some quick cheek pecks and leaning onto each other, but nothing more, until we can finally move to the next level."
"Oh that level, well I do have some decorative feathers and it's not easy trying to make those kinds of dances" said Sid.
They all look at her with shock and confusion. "Dude, I don't think that's the level she was talking about" said Luna.
Sid then sees Ronnie Anne blushing like crazy. "Oh! Sorry, you meant like dating and small romance stuff. Okay, sorry I guess I got a little carried away."
Ronnie Anne then smiles and chuckles. "Yeah, let's not talk about that one again. But like I said, small mushy stuff."
The two of them then fist bump each other. Then Ronnie Anne gives her a quick peck on the cheek making Sid blush. "Y-Yeah, small mushy stuff" said Sid.
Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Sam thought it was sweet. Then they remembered something.
"What about both your families?" asked Sam.
"Dudes! You're Abuela is still onto the Lincoln and you thing!" said Luna.
"And that's the one thing I want her to shut up about!" said Jordan.
"Still kinda ticked off by it" said Lincoln in annoyance.
Patriot squawks in retaliation.
Ronnie Anne and Sid knew they would have to tell their families eventually. "So, when do you wanna tell them?" asked Ronnie Anne.
"Well, I was kinda thinking. Now?" said Sid.
Ronnie Anne was shocked by this. "A-Are you sure? We can wait if you want."
Sid shook her head. "No, this is something they all have to know now and I don't wanna keep my emotions and keep it a secret for too long, you know how I am."
Ronnie Anne smiles. "Okay Sid, let's go then."
They then see the rest of their friends stand up and smile.
"We got your back guys" said Lincoln and Jordan.
"We're all friends here dudes" said Luna and Sam.
Ronnie Anne and Sid were glad that they were there to help them. They all leave the park together, though Sid then holds Ronnie Anne's hadn, Ronnie Anne blushes and intertwines her fingers with Sid's.
The Love bird then lands on the head of Ronnie Anne, chirping happily, they all laugh at this cure scene.
Meanwhile Sergio who was hiding in a tree is crying. "T-That was beautiful!"
Then his communicator goes off. "Sergio! Come back home, I think I've heard enough" said Rosa.
"Uh oh!" said Sergio. He then flies off back to the Casagrande apartment.
Soon Lincoln, Jordan, Luna, Sam, Ronnie Anne and Sid make it back home, with Patriot and the Love bird of course.
Ronnie Anne then notices the Mercado was closed, early? "That's weird."
Sid also notices this. "You think they're fumigating for cockroaches?"
"Not possible. There are no roaches in the Mercado" replied Ronnie Anne.
They all head inside and see in the living room is the Casagrandes, the Santiagos and the Chang's, also Lori.
They all knew something was wrong. Ronnie Anne even saw her dad on the tablet.
"Mija, please come forward. You two Sid" said Rosa.
They did so, but with Lincoln, Jordan, Luna and Sam by their side. "We got your backs guys" said Jordan.
Ronnie Anne and Sid felt confident in this. "So, what is this about guys?" asked Ronnie Anne.
"We overheard everything Ronnie Anne" said Uncle Carl.
"Abuela sent Sergio to find out what was going on" replied Bobby.
They look to Sergio who didn't feel like eating the Tamales. "Now I feel guilty."
"We never knew you were this kind of girl Ronnie Anne" said Hector.
"I've seen some of this stuff with some teens. But never in kids like your ages" said Bobby.
"No wonder why you're not into a lot of stuff as me" said Carlotta.
"I have no idea what to even think of what's happening now" said Carlos.
"I think its okay, if she's happy then she's happy which means they're both happy with it" said CJ.
"I always thought Sid was into guys" said Adelaide.
"I guess we're both sorta Bisexual, like Luna Loud" said Ronnie Anne.
Ronnie Anne and Sid were nervous. "So, are we in trouble?" asked Sid.
Maria and Becca Chang are the ones to step forward.
"Of course not girls, we will respect this and do whatever we can to support it" said Maria.
"And we know how much this means to the both of you" said Becca.
"First was the friendship you both shared and now it's this new set of growing emotions! It feels like a telenovela in here!" said Frida.
"You two are as inseparable as the two bats stuck to my arms, I really need to get these guys off of me" said Ronnie Anne's dad.
"We're not gonna judge you two, but you both can't show this in public until you're both in high school" said Sid's dad.
"Now, now. These girls seem ready to show some of it at their age" said Becca. Her husband sighs and smiles. "I guess. At least it's not a boy."
Ronnie Anne and Sid were happy that they were supporting their new found relationship. Then they looked to Abuela Rosa, who didn't look upset at all, just a bit confused.
Ronnie Anne walked towards her. "Abuela, I hope you're not upset."
Rosa looks to her granddaughter and smiles. "Of course not Mija, but this is just something I didn't see coming. I guess I was blinded from all of the things Bobby told me before Sid came, I never knew you were that kind of girl."
"So, what do you think Abuela?" asked Ronnie Anne.
Rosa looks to Sid and then back to Ronnie Anne and then smiles. "I can see how good you two are together and I kind of had this strange feeling when you two started being friends, I didn't think of it at first but now I know that the horoscope was right, you did find love today Mija."
"And she found my love bird" said Sid as she points to the bird on her head.
Rosa was shocked. "So the love bird led Sid to you! That is so unexpected!"
Ronnie Anne chuckles. "Yeah, I guess it is." She then hugs her Abuela. "Thank you for being so understanding Abuela."
Rosa hugs her back. "You're welcome Mija, I really don't care how you two show your love to each other just as long as both of you are happy. You both have my support."
Then the whole family gets into the group hug. Then Rosa looks to Lincoln and Jordan.
"Kids, I am so sorry for being like that to your relationship. I guess I was blinded by another love conflict" said Rosa.
Lincoln and Jordan were still upset at what she did when she arrived at the loud house those many months ago, but they saw that she was supportive towards Ronnie Anne and Sid.
"I guess we can forgive you Abuela Rosa" said Lincoln.
"Same here. Now we can put this stupid dispute behind us" said Jordan.
Lori then hugs bobby. "Now we don't have to worry about our families against each other" said Bobby.
Lori is also happy. "Yeah, this is wonderful Boo-Boo Bear!" Then she realizes something. "But wait! What about Thanksgiving?!"
They all gasp in shock. Frida faints.
This is going to be Lori and bobby's first Thanksgiving away from each other and it's next week.
"Oh boy" said Luna.
"And it got worse" said Lincoln.
"Way worse" said Jordan.
"I'm kinda lost here" said Sam.
"Same" said Sid.
"What's this all about?" asked Adelaide.
Then Lincoln has an idea, one that he did last week. "I think I know how we can all settle this."
And soon to come, the Thanksgiving Chapter. I know some of you don't like this ship, but guess what? There are other people who do! And I think this is a good idea, it could fix all the things wrong from my last Thanksgiving one-shot! Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
To all those who criticize me, BRING IT ON! I CAN TAKE IT!
Thank you Vasmasdas1 for this support and in the chapters concept.
