Chapter 203
In collaboration with avenger44.
(Royal Woods Elementary.)
Lincoln is walking down the halls of the school as usual, he already parted ways from his little sisters and is wondering. 'Where the heck is Jordan? She planning on another sneak attack on me?'
And then he's grabbed and pulled into the janitor's closet. "What the?! Who's there?!" The light turns on and he sees Jordan, and his friends. "I'm afraid to ask, what the heck is going on?"
Jordan then gives him a small kiss on his cheek. "Sorry about that handsome and to the rest of you guys, but I needed to talk to all of you before my crew got to me!"
"Umm, what is that exactly?" asked Zach.
Jordan then goes through her phone. "You guys recall that yesterday Luna, Lincoln and I had some fun time with his grandpa and Myrtle right?"
"Yeah, we saw ya'll flyin' around town. Didn't know Luna had them wing suits too" said Liam.
"She looked rockin' in that wing suit you guys made for her! Nice job Loud" said Tabby.
"Thanks, she's my sister and I wanted her to experience what Jordan and I went through." He then looks to his girlfriend. "So, what's this all about anyway my love?"
"This!" Jordan shows them an image of Kat, Joy and Cookie at Jean-Juan's and with them are three boys that they all recognize.
"You friends? And some boys?" asked Stella.
Clyde gasps. "Those boys used to be pals with Chandler, but they gave up on him when he got some new friends who would listen to him for his popularity and money."
"Artie and Lance are also the ones who helped us with Jeffrey last month, and gave us the fliers to the tango contest, a shame that Lori and Bobby didn't win" said Lincoln.
"What the heck? What are they doing?" asked Simon. The he sees them holding hands. "Are they …. Dating?!"
Jordan nods. "I have no clue why they didn't bother to tell me, but I intend to know the truth at lunch. All of us have to figure out what the heck is going on!"
They were kinda surprised by this. "Did you see them come out of Jean-Juan's after our sky gliding thing?" asked Lincoln.
"I did, when, my parents came to pick me up and take me somewhere to have dinner with them and that's when I saw my three gal pals hanging out with those three boys we barely interact much."
"Okay then, this is something we can all support you on. Also this is making you kinda scary" said Stella.
"Sorry guys, I just get cautious with my gals and when they make some choices. Mollie once made a mistake when she thought she could do a cannon ball from the roof of my home two years ago" said Jordan.
Rusty was afraid to ask, not Polly though. "What happened?"
"Let's just say there was a lot of red on her skin when she landed into the water" replied Jordan with some concern.
They all hissed at hearing that. "Sounds kinda like what I did two years ago at the community pool, on the high board" said Lincoln.
"Didn't you talk to Cookie about the whole thing after that Jeffrey guy came back?" asked Giggles.
"It slipped out of my mind, I guess I was way too occupied by other things. But this will give me all the time to talk to them" replied Jordan.
"Okay guys, with all of that pain done. Should we put this plan into action?" asked Zach.
"Like Jordan said, we talk to them at lunch" said Lincoln. They soon get out of the closet and head to their lockers, Jordan does notice something.
She sees Sadie giggling at whatever it was Artie just said, they seemed very happy with each other. 'They seem like a cut couple, but I gotta know what made all of this happen.'
(Mrs. Johnson's class.)
They enter the classroom and Lincoln and Jordan see Kat and Trent talking to each other, they seem to be very happy with each other's company.
(Science class.)
They spot Joy and Lance talking about the many things they can conjure up with the chemicals, and he assured her that if they do some frog studying, Artie will make sure she doesn't have to touch them.
(History class.)
They see Cookie and Artie talking again, and this time it sounded like he was asking her something and she said yes. This was making Jordan more and more curious as to what was happening.
And then she gets startled by Mollie. "Wondering how they got their dates I see."
Lincoln and Jordan turn around and see Mollie and Sadie. "Hey guys, sorry but Jordan is curious" said Lincoln.
"Can you blame me? I wanna know how this happened" said Jordan.
Sadie chuckles. "Lunch time. We know you're planning to talk to them and you will get your chance Jordan."
Mollie and Sadie then head to their seats, leaving Lincoln and Jordan kinda confused. "I think they knew" said Lincoln.
"Yeah, I kinda figured that one out as well" said Jordan. They then head to their seats before class begins.
(Skip, Lunch time.)
Lincoln and Jordan are now sitting with Stella, Simon, Liam, Tabby, Clyde, Rusty, Polly, Zach and Giggles.
"So, where the heck ate they?" asked Zach.
"They'll be here soon guys. Give them some time" replied Stella.
"So, anyone wanna trade for my buffalo chips and Pepsi?" asked Rusty.
Then they spot them, Mollie, Sadie, Joy, Kat and Cookie and with them are Lance, Trent and Cookie.
"Okay, this is it mates" said Tabby.
Lincoln knows the three boys, he was greatful for Artie and Lance helping with Jeffrey. But he does wanna know how the heck did those three fall in love with the three of Jordan's gal pals.
Artie Dombrowski: brunette pixie cut, yellow sweat shirt with a horizontal stripe in the center, blue jeans, and white sneakers with red stripes on.
Lance Chase: light blonde hair and freckles, a red t-shirt with white stripes, and blue jeans and white sneakers with blue stripes.
Trent Gragnani: brown hair, black glasses, a yellow t-shirt with green stripes and a purple short sleeved jacket and green pants with black sneakers.
The group then approaches them. "Hey guys, guess we're all here then" said Cookie.
"Please take a seat girls, we have much to discuss" said Jordan.
"Hey Loud, we saw what you and Jordan and your sister did, that was awesome!" said Trent.
"Thanks Trent, but we have to talk about something else besides what we did yesterday" said Lincoln.
"We know, we know. About us dating these three girls" Artie then boops Cookie's nose. "But to me, this cute cookie cutter."
Cookie giggles. "Oh stop!"
Jordan chuckles at this. Then she asks them. "So, how did all of this started?"
Cookie: I guess it started somewhere after March, I ran into Artie in the hallways when I stayed to help Mrs. Johnson. Artie stayed because he had detention and luckily he was out of detention.
Artie: I ran into her after I went to use the bathroom, I helped her carry all of the erasers back to Mrs.' Johnson's classroom. And then when we were alone I talked to her about what I've been doing and she told me what she's been doing, then I thought it was the right time to tell her that I had a crush on her. It was kinda awkward at first.
Cookie: It really was, and then I told him how cute he was and decided we should see how this works and so we went on one date and it all hit off from there. Then on our third date, which I can't seem to recall he asked me to be his girlfriend and of course I said yes!
Artie: I felt nervous and a wreck asking her, I got her a nice ring and myself the same thing. They combine to form a small heart. I got the ruing after hearing how Lincoln and his friends get special stuff for their ladies, I got myself a part time job at the supermarket in helping restock some items. I honestly can't believe they hired a kid like me, then my dad became the new manager of Jean-Juan's and I helped out there instead.
Lincoln, Jordan and they're friends were shocked by this.
"Wow! Now that's what I call a short story" said Giggles.
"And to think, you guys hit it off quick. Sort of" said Liam.
"Last I know, Lincoln and Jordan became a thing a few days after they met last year" said Stella.
Jordan then sees how much Cookie and Artie liked each other and smiled. Then she looks to Joy and Lance. "And you two?"
Joy: It all started after the Sadie Hawkins dance, you didn't see it but I danced with the guy. He then walked me home and we talked and then he asked me to a date and of course I said yes! I wanted to see how this would all go.
Lance: I was lucky to get the last reservation at Jean-Juan's and we started dating some more, I knew that Joy danced with Artie last Sadie Hawkins dance, but he said it was okay for me to date Joy because that was a one sided crush he had. He still had a crush on Cookie.
Joy: We aren't official, we're still dating and this guy and myself are going on another date this Friday, but this time at Giovanni-Chang's.
Lance: And once again, I was able to get the last reservation and way before anyone else get it.
Jordan is once again shocked by this. "Okay, almost in par with Artie and Cookie I guess. Plus you seem a bit unlucky with getting reservations."
"I know. I have no clue why! Am I nervous or something? Because I seem to be whenever I try and make a date possible with Joy" said Lance with some concern.
Joy places her hand on his. "Hey, you don't have to be nervous. Whatever you have planned is darn right okay with me" She then places a small kiss onto his cheek, making Lance blush and chuckle goofily.
Lincoln chuckles at this. 'Reminds me of myself, sorta.' Then he gets an idea. "You know Lance, if you want I can ask my dad to make a reservation for you and Joy should you guys go on another date."
Lance and Joy are shocked and smile. "Really?" asked Lance.
Lincoln nods. "You seem like the kind of guy who want to make your lady feel special and I've been down that road many times and I'm still driving down that road."
"Gee, thanks Loud" said Joy.
"Generous as always when it comes to friends Lincoln" said Clyde.
"What can I say? When it comes to my friends and they're romantic life, I like to help out" replied Lincoln.
"I guess it's our turn now Trent" said Kat. She pokes his nose.
Trent chuckles. "Yeah. This is ….. Wow, first time we told this to anyone."
Jordan is confused. "I'm kinda lost here guys."
Kat: I guess, I guess it all started after we did our reports on our special person in our lives. I went to the mall alone since the rest of our friends were busy with their own things. I had way too many bags with me and I was close to falling over, then …. Then he came and helped me before I fell. Trent Chase.
Trent: Yeah, I was there to check out some new video games. I saw Kat needed help and so I helped her. I even carried her bags for her, she said she had it under control but I insisted to assists her. A lady like herself needs some help sometimes and I accidently called her elegant when I said it.
Kat: He was such a gentleman to me, and he offered to have dinner with me at the food court. We both order some chicken salad and some sodas. We talked about what we were doing there, we were sorta interested in what we were talking about and then we decided to head on home. But then I found out that both my parents were busy with a friend at the hospital that I had to walk home. But then Trent offered to walk me home, he didn't want anything bad to happen to me.
Trent: I walked her home and we both enjoyed each other's company as I escorted her home. We made it to her place and I said goodbye to her, but then she ….. She gave me a small kiss to the cheek for being such a gentleman. I guess lessons from my dad really helped me.
Kat: Before he went home, I asked Trent if he wanted to … Go on a date with me, I asked him, he didn't ask me. I didn't know why I did it, but it felt so right! Plus he was kinda cute when he was nervous and blushing, and those glasses really make it adorbs!
They all awed at this. "Wow, talk about first times smitten" said Rusty.
"Remind you guys of anyone?" asked Polly.
They all look to Lincoln and Jordan who are both smiling. "Okay, we get it guys. Are you two dating or official?" asked Lincoln.
"Still dating and I got us some reservations for another date at Bangers n' Mosh" replied Trent.
"How did you're first date went?" asked Liam.
"It was during May 9. He escorted me to Aloha-Comrade and we had a lovely time, he ordered a special meal for us and then we talked and talked and we both started to get close and we ….. Touched hands and we both had a ….. Sort of awkward moment" said Kat.
"Yup, just like Jordan and I" chuckled Lincoln,
"Brings me so many memories of our first date" sighed Jordan.
I walked her home and she wanted to kiss me on the cheek again, but I was gonna kiss her on the cheek and we both ended up kissing each other" replied Trent. "On the lips."
They all gasped at this.
Kat turns red. "I ….. I ….. Oh gosh! That time, I understood how Jordan felt. It was awesome" she looks to Trent. "He was awesome!"
Trent chuckles nervously and then Kat kisses his cheek making him blush and almost faint, but he gets caught by Lance. "Don't pass out on us man!"
Kat giggles at this. "He's so cute when he's nervous."
Jordan smiled and felt happy for her friends. "So, I guess the crew of romance got bigger and might still be growing."
"Trust me girl, I'm not interested in anyone yet. It'll be a long time before I go goo-goo eyes on someone or find that special someone" said Mollie.
"Same with me, after what Rusty pulled on me last year" said Sadie.
Rusty chuckles nervously at that memory, Polly was there to keep him comfortable.
"So, now that we have all of that covered. Anyone wanna trade lunches?" asked Artie.
"Sure" replied Liam. "I got me a bacon sandwich."
"My dad's packed me some hash browns" said Clyde.
"I can trade you that for my egg salad sandwich" said Lance.
"Anyone want some of my cupcakes?" asked Joy.
"Only if you're willing to trade that for my caramel apples slices" said Tabby.
"I got some French fries and corn chips" said Trent.
"Trade you for my Buffalo chips" said Rusty.
"Anyone want some pie?" asked Giggles. They look to her nervously. "What? I'm not gonna throw it at you guys, I got a slice of pie. It's chocolate."
"I'll take it, and you can have my friend chicken" said Kat.
"Now this is what I like to call a lunch trade session" chuckled Simon.
Lincoln then looks to the three guys. "Artie, Lance and Trent." The three boys and everyone look to him. "Welcome to the Tree House gang."
They were all shocked by this. "You three seem trust worthy and aren't troublesome ever since so much has happened. This is the least I can do for the three of you, also in case you need some advice when making special dates" replied Lincoln.
The three boys smiled and liked this idea. "Thanks Lincoln, this is really nice of you" said Trent.
"Yeah, even if we don't hang out much" said Artie,
"When do we get to chill in the Casa tree?" asked Lance.
"That would be the day after tomorrow, or next week. Come tomorrow we have to be prepared for some new arrivals" said Jordan.
"Oh yeah! Patriot and Valkyrie's eggs are gonna hatch!" said Mollie.
"They're gonna be parents!" said Zach.
"The two eagles of Royal Woods are gonna be expecting so much tomorrow" said Clyde. "I just hope they are prepared for their arrivals."
"They will be McBride, it's in their parental instincts" said Kat.
"I wonder if they already thought about names" said Giggles.
"Depends on the genders of their babies" said Zach.
"You think we can all have a look at them? From a distance we mean" asked Joy.
Lincoln and Jordan look to each other and smile. "Sure, just as long as we do it from a distance and not at close range. Patriot and Valkyrie would also be okay with it" said Lincoln.
"Awesome!" they all cheer.
They then continue to chat and trade lunches. For Lincoln he only had one thing to say in his thoughts. 'Wait till my sisters hear about this!'
(The Loud House.)
At the Tree House watch tower. Valkyrie is fast asleep on the nest, but then she opens her eyes when she feels all three eggs starting to shake. She smiled, she knew it was almost time.
She then closes her eyes and does her best to keep her eggs warm. But one of them starts to show a small crack.
A/N: I would like to thank avenger44 for helping me with this pairing. It was about time some background characters got some attention and these three boys got it real good and will be part of future chapters to come! Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
