Chapter 265
In collaboration with Vasmasdas1.
(Hailsbrew Apartment.)
The sun shines onto the apartment bedrooms to where Lincoln and Jordan are at. The young white-haired 12 year old boy awakens and he sees where he's at. 'Oh right. We're at Great Lake City. Man, what an awesome day we had yesterday.'
Lincoln recalls having fun with his two friends Ronnie Anne, Sid and they're crew at the park of Great Lake City and then his sister's also having fun there as well. Lincoln then looks to the girl laying next to him with messy hair. 'And looks like someone had a fun time as well.'
Lincoln then kisses her cheek, this makes her stir and slowly she wakes up. She then smiles from the very sight of her boyfriend, but still she's a bit sleepy. "Good morning handsome."
Lincoln chuckles and then he sits up. "And a good morning to you my love, are you ready for whatever this day holds for us both?" Lincoln strokes her hair which makes her giggles.
Jordan then sits up. "Well I was thinking that we should stay here a bit longer and enjoy whatever moment we have together just the two of us, but I am looking forward to whatever the day has for us here at Great Lake City. We should get changed and then check on the others."
"Then let's get to it." Lincoln and Jordan get up, Jordan grabs the things she needs and heads to the bathroom, while Lincoln takes to the hallway bathroom within the apartment room.
Lincoln then sees someone go towards him. "Good morning little brother, you and Jordan have a good time for sleep together?"
Lincoln chuckles. "Yeah, at first we were thinking of just spending a day with just the two of us alone, but then we thought maybe we should just spend what days we have left by having some fun here at Great Lake City."
Luna smiles. "Bro, you and Jordan do what you do, spend the day with just each other and tell Ronnie Anne, Sid and the others you two should have the whole day for yourselves. They'll understand bro."
Lincoln thinks about this. "You know what sis, that doesn't sound like a bad idea, I'll inform Jordan of it as well. Once we're done changing. See you at breakfast sis."
Lincoln heads to the bathroom and Luna heads back into her room to check on her phone and see if she has any messages from Sam, or from their parents.
(Later.)
Lincoln and Jordan both enter the main room and they see all of the loud sisters are at the kitchen table and enjoying themselves. Lori, Leni and Luna are cooking the pancakes, Luan is feeding Lily her baby food, Lynn Jr, Lucy, Lana, Lola and Lisa are already eating while talking about what they will do.
"Morning everyone" replied Lincoln and Jordan.
"Good morning you two." Lori hands them their pancakes. "So, one day where it's just the two of you?"
"It's the best plan we got and we talked about it to Ronnie Anne and the others over the phone earlier and they were cool with it, she said she and Sid have their own plans and that involves the skate park" replied Jordan.
"That sounds kinda like something I wanna do, but I got my own plans and it's to see if CJ can beat me at basketball!" said Lynn. "I am so going to wanna see if he can take down the basketball champ of Royal Woods!"
"I think I'd rather stay here and write some poems and also check on the eagles to see if they need some company" said Lucy. Then she had an idea. "Or I could be the one to keep an eye on Harrier, Artemis and Freya so Patriot and Valkyrie can keep an eye on you two."
"I think that's an awesome idea, and I think they think so too" said Lincoln. They see Patriot and Valkyrie take some pancakes and then fly off, but not before nodding to Lucy and then heading back to their nest. "Looks like you got a whole day to spend some time with the eagle's chicks."
Lincoln and Jordan then join the others and eat pancakes at the table. "Anyone else got any plans today?" asked Jordan. She then pets Ajax and gives him some pancakes, the others pets are also eating.
"Lola and I are going to the Casagrandes apartment to play with Adelaide and Lola is bringing her pink car with her, though we gotta be careful since there are a lot of stairs and not much ramps" said Lana.
"Adelaide can truly learn from someone who has been playing princesses and dragons for a long, long time" said Lola. "And I am truly meant to show her the ropes."
"Well, better not burn the whole thing down, otherwise the playdate will be a fairytale story! Hahaha! Get it?" said Luan. They all groan. "Anyway, what I got planned to do is to explore the rest of the city with Leni and Lily, and we're going to have some company from Carlota."
Leni gets to the table and joins them. "The city does have a mall, but we're going to get to that next time. Carlota is going to take us to the many thrift stores round the place, I wanna look for something that could give me some inspiration for a new fashion line."
"But what about the hairstylist Margarita?" asked Lincoln as he eats his pancakes. "I thought you were planning to go and see her."
"We'll get to her after we finish our thrift store look around" replied Leni.
"I for one am staying in the apartment building, I can settle fun when tomorrow once we all head to the Great Lake City zoo" replied Lisa. "I wish to discuss some things to Arturo with some of his work, he too wishes to show me what he has been doing when he was in Brazil."
They then look to Lori. "And of course we all know what you're gonna do all day Lori" said Lynn.
Lori chuckles. "I told Bobby that I'd help him down at the Mercado, then we'll get to our date next time, and to make sure Carl isn't involved Bobby's Abuelo Hector is helping us out and also Carlito and Lalo. As of now Carl is grounded for the day."
They all recall what Maria told them yesterday, Carl tried to put his own cameras so he can observe Lori and see what they all do with their habits so he may swindle them out of the cash they go with things he might have for them to enjoy.
"Carl maybe a friendly kid at times, but he's growing up" said Luna. "And when he grows up, so does his scheming ways, at least his parents are gonna set him straight."
"And what about you sis?" asked Lincoln. "Got any plans for today?" Lincoln tosses a pancake into the air and Charles grabs it and shares it with the others.
"Nothing much bro, just gonna spend it indoors as well. I was thinking of a song to make, one I can enjoy and let Sam hear when we get back" replied Luna. "You and Jordan should enjoy the one-on-one time you guys got, any idea for what kind of date?"
Lincoln chuckles. "Sorry, but that's a plan only I know. I came up with it as I was in the bathroom."
"So, no spoilers for me?" asked Jordan as she leans onto him, she then uses her eyes to look cute to get some answers.
Lincoln smirks. "Nice try my love, but it is a surprise. So no spoilers here." Lincoln then kisses her cheek.
Jordan giggles. "Well, it was worth a shot." They all chuckle and continue to eat their breakfast, they all have a big day ahead of them and Great Lake City is going to show them what it has in store.
(Hours later.)
Lincoln and Jordan leave the apartment and they wave to Lucy who is on the roof, Patriot and Valkyrie take to the skies and stay on patrol. Lori and Leni along with Luan and Lily drive off.
Lynn Jr rides onto her roller skates and Lola and Lana take off on Lola's pink car. Lincoln and Jordan look to each other. "You ready for this one day of just the two of us?" asked Lincoln.
"Show me what you got planned for me loud" said Jordan. "I am so ready for this." They both take a nice stroll around the street, Jordan was looking forward to where he was going to take her.
(An Hour later.)
Lincoln and Jordan descend from the bus and they see the arcade at Great Lake City. "So, we're gonna check out the arcade huh? Sounds like a challenge" said Jordan with a competitive look.
"Ronnie Anne and Sid told me about this place, and I wanna see how well it is compared to Gus's." Lincoln and Jordan look to the space-themed looking arcade and its neon signs and they look to the name of the place. "Game Zone Arcade-mania!"
"And the cool part is." Lincoln and Jordan look to the right. "It's right next to the restaurant Burger Blast, and the Casagrande apartment is not too far either" said Lincoln.
They both see Parr arrive and bring in the fruit delivery into the Mercado. Lincoln and Jordan look up, the two Eagles take off elsewhere to let Lincoln and Jordan play some games. "So, shall we?" asked Lincoln.
"Loser buys burger blast!" said Jordan, she then races ahead of him and into the arcade.
"Oh it is on Rosato!" Lincoln follows her in and they are both amazed by the place. There are tons of games, games they have never seen. "Let's see who can have the best score in here!"
"The rest of your friends are so not gonna believe this one!" Jordan pulls Lincoln to her and they take a selfie with the whole place. "They are so going to wanna come here one day."
They then look to the place, they do spot a monster truck racing game. "Ready to smash some cars?" asked Lincoln.
"Like I said, whoever has the lowest score or loses, buys the burgers!" said Jordan. They then head to the game and proceed to play, they plan to play all the games there. While they play the games, Ronnie Anne, Sid, Nikki, Casey and Sameer race past the arcade on their skate boards.
(Two hours later.)
Lincoln and Jordan walk out of the arcade. "Okay, so we're both tied and I guess we both have to pay for lunch right?" asked Jordan.
"That does sound like a logical thing." then Lincoln sees something else. "Or we could take our business to the one place where we can have a romantic lunch time."
"And where might that be Lincoln Loud?" asked Jordan with a sly look.
Lincoln holds her hand and they both make their way through the streets, they then pass by the basketball court where CJ and Lynn continue to play basketball.
"Dang CJ, you got the moves and the skills, how the heck are you doing this?" asked Lynn as she passes him the ball.
"Like I said, I know how to play the game like how I also play soccer, tennis, badminton and ping pong" replied CJ, he then tosses the ball behind him and he scores the bank shot.
Lynn smirks. "Dang. You should really join a sports club CJ, you definitely fit the bill for the team."
CJ goes over to get the ball. "As much fun as it sounds, I'd rather stick to being a part of my club, the pirate's theater club and I am dang good at that." He then tosses the ball to Lynn.
"Well, I guess we all have our own things. What about soccer? You did say you play it too right?" Lynn then jumps over CJ and scores the slam dunk.
"That's my new plan for middle school." CJ grabs the ball and he scores the bank shot. "I am planning on the tryouts and make the big soccer game, I just hope that if I do make the cut my abuela won't do her superstitious stuff."
Lynn takes the ball and has an idea. "How about this, we get back to your place and I'll talk to your grandma about the whole superstition thing. I myself was once superstitious about luck and rituals, but then I knew that all I needed was the winning spirit, confidence and my skills. No such luck needed."
"Wow. Thanks Lynn, that sounds awesome!" CJ then runs past Lynn, grabs the ball and he scores the slam-dunk!
Lynn chuckles. "All in good time's buddy." they both continue to play, while Leni, Carlota, Luan and Lily drive by them and head for Margarita's hair salon.
(Amores Pizza.)
Jordan looks in awe and then back to Lincoln. "You romantic dog you! You always know where to find a romantic spot and here it is, probably the only pizza place in the city." Valkyrie lands on Jordan's shoulders.
"Actually Bobby said there's like ten more but their far to get there and we'd have to take the city GLART for that one." Lincoln opens the door for her. "Ladies first?" Patriot sits on his shoulders and also bows to Jordan and Valkyrie.
Jordan giggles. "Oh you gentleman you!" Valkyrie also smiles seeing this and all of them head inside.
They look around and see just how the same this place was the last time they were here, they were happy to know that the employees there were fine with Patriot and Valkyrie being there, they have heard that the two eagle winners were in the city and were honored to have them at their eating establishment.
Lincoln and Jordan head to their table and they do wave to Vito who was eating a large cheese pizza. But where are his dogs at?
Lincoln and Jordan take their seats as well as Patriot and Valkyrie. Lincoln and Jordan were about to order, but then the waiter comes back with two more waiters.
They place down four plates, four pieces of garlic sticks, two glasses of sparkling water, and a large peperoni and bacon pizza with stuffed crust. This puts stars in the eyes of the two 12 year olds and the eagles.
The chef arrives and he uses his pizza cutter to slice the pizza for them, they then take their leave and let them enjoy their lunch.
"Wow! Talk about an early access and to the newest addition to their menu too!" Jordan sees in the menu, that this pizza is new and half-off.
"Huh, I guess they were all prepared for us to order what we want" said Lincoln. "Let's dig in then." They all enjoy this delicious pizza lunch.
They do get caught up with some little kids who want their autographs. Lincoln, Jordan, Patriot and Valkyrie were happy enough to do so, and to make sure it doesn't happen like what happened at the Mick tour and the Aloha Beach Hotel and Resort: The staff have their employees set and ready to take down any horde of fans.
(Mercado.)
Lori sweeps the floor as Bobby restocks the freezer. "Man, it is so nice to have you help out Lori. Sure is a dang shame we couldn't spend some romantic time together" said Bobby.
"Now, now Roberto, I understand that this seems to be the only way for us to have out time together. We can have romance when the time comes, for now I wanna help out in this place" said Lori.
"At least Carl isn't going to be involved with anything we all do, I hope. He's only grounded for the day and who knows what he might be up to when tomorrow comes" said Bobby.
"You helped him learn to swim and he helped you try and learn to tie your shoes, and yet he tries his best to be almost as troublesome as he was before" said Lori. "Lincoln and Jordan told me what Ronnie Anne has been through ever since all the times Carl did some money swindling."
"True." Hector finishes counting all the money in the register. "Carl is up to no good ever since his birthday two weeks ago, he's growing up and so are his ways into making his little scheme. He's not a bad kid, but somehow spoiled."
Then they see Mr. Nakamura and his dog come in and also coming in is one of their toughest customers, Mabel. She's like Scoots, but without the scooter.
"Well, looks like it's time to get to work." Bobby goes to see what Mabel wants to buy.
Lori then goes to Hector. "So, where the heck is Sergio?"
"No clue, he was here earlier" said Hector. They look around and don't see him anywhere.
(Hailsbrew Apartment.)
Sergio and his pigeon friends are hiding in the tree and they spot the eagle house. "Rawrk, you guys ready to take over and party?" The eagles nod and get their party cannons ready.
"I don't care if they're just babies!" said Sergio. "No eagles allowed!" They then fly out of the tree and ready to use their party cannons, but then they get sprayed by the loud pets, and also some of the dogs from the neighborhood.
"What the heck? Rawrk, what is this?" Sergio smells himself. "Cat nip?" Then he realizes. "Oh dios mio!"
The cat gang come out of hiding and look to the birds coated in cat nip. "Rawrk, scatter! Scatter!" The parrot and the pigeons fly off as the cat gang chases them.
All the pets and the dogs high five each other, so does Cliff who is wearing a gas mask. Good thing too, otherwise he'd join them on hunting the birds, and now they can get back to whet they were doing.
The pets and dogs all head into the tent they setup next to the eagles house, they turn on the light and they all play some cards.
Lucy makes it back to the roof with some sandwiches and she looks around. "Huh, I thought I heard something." Then she smells the air. "Any why is some part of this place smelling like cat nip?"
(Great Lake City Park.)
The best way to end the day for Lincoln and Jordan, is the usual stroll in the park as the sun is at its lowest. They look around and they see everyone having fun.
They can see Ronnie Anne, Sid and they're friends sitting by the skate board ramps and eating hotdogs as they chat, Lola, Lana and Adelaide playing at the sandbox along with Lily and Carlitos and not too far from them is Leni, Luan, Carlota and Frida al talking to each other and finally they see Lynn showing CJ some soccer tricks.
What was odd, is that they see Sergio flying haggardly back to the Casagrande apartment. He looks like he was scratched all over, by cats. What happened to that guy?
Lincoln and Jordan then sit underneath the shade of the tree. Patriot and Valkyrie sit onto the tree branch above the two kids.
Jordan leans onto Lincoln's shoulder. "You know this has got to be the best start we have for our stay here."
"We had our fun with Ronnie Anne and the others when we came yesterday, today is just the start of how far our relationship is going. Through tours, beaches and now the city" replied Lincoln. He pulls Jordan closer.
"This is just the beginning" said Jordan. The beginning of the best week we're all gonna have, and I am so happy to be in for the ride."
Lincoln looks to her lovingly. "Me too my love, me too." They then share a passionate kiss, and then they lean onto each other and watch as the sun sets. Patriot and Valkyrie share a kiss as well.
This is turning out pretty well for them, next stop for them is what tomorrow brings.
(Hailsbrew Apartment.)
Luna puts her guitar away and she looks to her lyric book. "There, now to figure out when to let this song be played."
Luna then sees she has a text from Lori. "Get Lisa and Lucy and come to the Burger Blast restaurant, we're all having dinner there." Luna smiles and she gets up, grabs her jacket and goes off to find Lucy and Lisa.
On the notebook is the new song Luna has made: Remember Me.
