It was currently Friday, and Luna was sleeping in a bed on one side. As the sun started to go up a beam of light pierced the window and shined directly on her eyes. Her body slowly started to wake up before her eyes opened. After a couple of seconds, she tried to stand up remembering that she had to go before being stopped by someone taking her arm.
"Come on five more minutes." Said another voice coming for the other side of the bed. The arm that held Luna pulled her to the other side of the bed making her lay down next to someone. Soon another arm wrapped around her locking her in place.
"Sam you know how much I want to stay but I promised my brother that I will take care of Layla while he goes out with friends." Said Luna happily to Sam. Sam got a smile on her face and said.
"Okayyy, but next time I get to chose when we get up." Soon the grip around her arm was released and the other arm released her from the hug. While she wished that she could stay in that hug forever Luna promised that she'll take care of Layla.
She finally was able to stand up from the bed and put on some clothes. Getting dressed in blue jeans and a purple t-shirt that 'Rock on forever' was written on. Before she left, she kissed Sam on her forehead promising that she'll come to her tomorrow. She left the room while Sam went back to sleep with the biggest smile. Soon she reached the bathroom where she took out her hairbrush that she had laying around.
While Luna brushed her hair, she began to think about her plans for today. Firstly, she would take care of Layla until Lincoln came home. Secondly, she would also try to reconnect with some of her sisters. It's been some time since she had a normal conversation with them. Then her thoughts switched to Lincoln. When they were younger her brother would always come to her for advice or if he needed anything. And if you would ask anyone about who's Lincoln's favorite sister then everyone would answer Luna except well Lincoln who would say that all his sisters are his favorites. She finished brushing her hair and began to brush her teeth while still deep in thought.
But as time went on, she began to talk less and less with Lincoln. Mostly because her band and Sam taking up most of her time. She did miss talking to her only brother but couldn't because of two things. She was scared of Sam leaving her again like last time. But she was also scared of how Lincoln would react. 'Would he be mad at her because she stopped talking with him and only now came back?' She hoped for the best and went out of the bathroom.
When she arrived in the kitchen, she began to make an omelet. She made a little extra just in case Sam wanted. She looked at the clock noticing it was only a bit past 11. Luna soon finished the omelet and put the plate in the dishwasher before heading into the 'music room'. When Sam bought this apartment, she allowed Luna to stay if she wanted. After Luna started coming here more frequently, she slowly moved all her instruments to Sam's place. Luna pretty much lived here.
She reached the 'music room' and entered it. The room was about the same size as Lincoln's room. The room contained a drum set far back and 2 electric guitars hanging on the wall. One was a light blue that had an engraving that spelled out 'S.S' which stood for Sam Sharp. And the one beside it was a purple guitar with 'L.L' engraved in it standing for Luna Loud. She picked up her guitar and began playing.
Throughout her entire music session, she was deep in thought again, but one event stood out like none other 'Wednesday'. The day that her brother's life changed forever, she remembered that day. She and Sam were late due to 'having fun' as they put it. It was mostly a fun day, small talk with some of her sisters and eating her dad's amazing food but one thing weirded her out that day.
'Lincoln wasn't talking or even looking at us only at the ground' She thought first that he was mad at her for the lack of communication but when she asked Lucy she said that he was a bit silent the last couple of months but that this was the worst yet. She remembered how her brother looked. Bags under his eyes while looking like he wanted to fall down and sleep. Sam saw also this and wanted her to talk to him, but she was scared of making it worse. Some of her sisters tried to ask but got barely any response. She wanted to talk with her brother and try to fix their relationship, but she didn't want to risk making things worse for both Lincoln and her.
And then it happened, the door got called and she approached it. When she opened it, she looked around and saw nothing until she looked down. A small basket with a baby in it, she was shocked and froze as everyone else started to surround her to see what it was with only Lincoln being the one to not look.
She finished her thoughts at the same time as her music ended. Luna pulled out her phone and saw that she had been playing for almost an hour. She started to panic hoping that she would not be late. She ran to the front door and started putting on her shoes. She quickly picks up a hoodie just in case, but she would probably not need it since it was really hot outside. She went outside and started walking. At this moment she wished that she had a car, while she does have a driver's license its kind of useless without a car.
Soon she reached her house where she grew up. Walking up to the door she hoped that Lincoln was still at home, she had really missed him. She gave a quick knock on the door before hearing something move inside the house. The locks got unlocked and Lincoln opened the door. He was looking better than the last time she saw him. He had visibly fewer bags under his eyes and didn't have that sad look in his eyes. This made her happy to see her brother better, and she hugged him instantly before he even knew what was going on.
"Hey bro, thanks for asking me to take care of her. I'll promise I will do a great job." She said. Lincoln looked like he was in a rush because as soon as he put on his shoe, he went out the door while telling me.
"Good Luck Luna. You could do it." That gave me a smile on my face. After he left, I closed the door and went to the note my mom placed for me. It had different times on when to feed her and when she should sleep and when she wakes up. Noticing I got about 10 minutes before Layla wakes up, I got up the stairs to check on my other sisters. At first, I arrived at Lola's and Lana's room. I opened the door to be greeted by.
"Lana your weird pet ate the jewel on my tiara!" Lola screamed while showing that in fact, the tiara didn't have a jewel. They both look at me when I try to close the door and walk out of this situation.
"Luna could you ask Lisa to open up Lana's pet so I can get my jewel back." Said Lola casually making Lana freak out.
"Luna tell her that she probably lost it. El Diablo hasn't even been on your side of the room these past few days." Argued Lana.
"Girls chill out. Lola, why do you think that El Diablo ate the jewel?" Asked Luna.
"Because every time something goes missing it's because of your pets Lana!" Said Lola.
"Now Lana, why don't you think that El Diablo ate the Jewel?" Said Luna
"Because he would never do that." Said Lana. Both twins continued to argue with Luna almost giving up and leaving until she noticed something glimmer on the ground. She bent down and to no one's surprise, it was the missing jewel.
"My jewel! Thank you thank you thank you!" Said Lola.
"Now apologies to your sister Lola." Said Luna.
"I'm sorry that I accused your pet, Lana. Next time I'll take your word for it and try to search." Said Lola while opening both her arms expecting a hug. Lana didn't hesitate to hug Lola and apologies if her pets did cause trouble for her. This makes Luna both happy and sad. Happy to see that two siblings can always work things out but sad that she can't work things out with Lincoln right now. She's too scared of ruining their bond even more. She left their room after snapping out of her thoughts, walked to the next room. Her old room, where both she and Luan used to bunk. 'I miss those day' she thought as Luna knocked on the door. But to her surprise no one opened, she tried again before deciding to try another room. She went and knocked on Lynn's door, again to her surprise no one opened it.
'Maybe they both went outside.' She thought but just then a strange noise could be heard coming from Lisa's room. Knowing that Lisa never leaves her lab she walks to her door and knocks. Then silence. Suddenly the sound of the door unlocking fills the hall and the door opens.
"Hey Luna, didn't know you were home. Me and Luan were about to head out. Seeyoulaterbye." Said Lynn quickly before both her and Luan rush by me with a bag sounding like it contains glass. I hear the front door open and close and look at Lisa.
"Want to tell me what that is about?" Luna asked.
"No." Said Lisa before closing the door on me. She just stood there not knowing if I should demand the answer or just leave it be. Luna quickly checked the time on her phone and saw that its time for Layla to wake up. She went downstairs and into her parents' room. In the room was a small crib that she remembers was Lily's. Luna went up to it and saw Layla sleeping peacefully inside. Luna picked her up and she began to awake. It was the cutest thing she'd ever seen except for Sam.
They left the room and went into the kitchen where she sat Layla down in a baby chair while she went to the fridge to get the baby food. She pulled out a spoon and tried to feed her.
*20 minutes later*
"I give up!" Luna said giving up on feeding Layla. Layla just watched and giggled, Layla was clean and didn't even have a food stain while Luna looked like she'd been dragged thru a pile of baby food.
"I'm going to need help." Said Luna before pulling out her phone.
"And I know just who to call."
"Mom, how do you feed Layla?" Said Luna practically begging her mom on the other side to help.
"You need to make the food more interesting to eat. Must go now, sweetie. Good luck." When the call ended, she stood there with no words. 'How does someone make food interesting' she thought before giving up.
"Screw it I'm calling Sam." Luna said as she began to call her.
*30 minutes later*
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
Luna went to the door to open it hoping that it was Sam behind it. She didn't want anyone to see her covered in baby food. Luna unlocked the door and opened it. And luckily it was Sam.
"Luna what happened and why are you covered in baby food?" Said Sam when she saw Luna. Both Sam and Luna went in and Luna pointed towards Layla in her baby chair and said.
"I tried to feed her. And this happened. I tried calling mom for help, but she didn't help. So, I gave up and called you for help."
"But what am I supposed to do?" Said Sam.
Luna began to explain her plan to Sam. Sam listened and didn't understand why it was so hard after all it was just a baby. After Luna finished explaining she went up to take shower and change clothes. Luna came back down after 20-minutes, she went to the kitchen and got more baby food and two spoons.
"Okay here's the plan again. You go and attempt to feed her, and she will turn her head and refuse. Then I will try to feed her from the side, it's genius she can't refuse to eat now!" Luna said sounding like a mad person.
"Are you okay Luna?" Asked Sam
"Yes, I am, don't worry now let's do this!" Said Luna hyped
They both took a spoon of baby food and nodded at each other before Sam began to walk towards her. Walking closer and Layla noticed the food come closer and started to react. 'I don't get it? Baby's normally like food.' Sam thought as she came closer
to Layla. Just then an idea struck her. 'What if?' she thought as Sam finally approached Layla.
"Here comes Ace savvy flying through the sky." Sam said in a high-pitched voice. She began moving the spoon and pretended that it flew, before starting to come closer to Layla with the food. Layla looked at the spoon and began to giggle with a smile. Just then Sam puts the spoon in Layla's mouth and she begins to eat it. Sam motions to her girlfriend to come over and give her more baby food, Luna comes closer and gives it to Sam. Sam took another spoonful of baby food and did the same thing as last time until she was feed. Meanwhile, Luna looked on in surprise that any mortal soul could feed her.
"And that was that." Said Sam while picking up a napkin and wiping Layla's face.
"HOW?" Asked Luna frustrated that Sam could do it on her first attempt.
"You gotta make the food interesting else she won't eat it." Said Sam. Luna glanced at the note that her mom left her to see what was next.
"Okay looks like Layla has some free time until we need to change the diapers." Said Luna. Sam then proceeded to pick Layla up from her baby chair and went to the couch. Sam sat down with Layla sitting on her knee, Sam motioned Luna to come and sit beside her.
"Come here Luna, I think its time for Layla to be introduced to cartoons." Said Sam while picking up a remote. Luna sat down on the same side as Layla sat on Sam's knee and relaxed thanking god that they managed to feed her. Sam began to look through the channels and found what she was looking for.
"Here Layla, this is Ace Savvy your dad's favorite superhero." Sam said while Layla began to look at the tv with happiness. While Layla watched the tv Luna decide to thank Sam.
"Sam thanks for your help. I wouldn't have done it without you babe." Thanked Luna and kissed Sam on the cheek.
"How did you know that feeding her like that would work?" Asked Luna.
"Saw on the tv that baby's need to be exited and happy to eat. Else they would think that the food is bland and boring." Explained Sam. While another question was forming in Luna's mind.
"Why were you watching a channel about baby's?" Asked Luna and Sam scratches the back of her head out of nervousness.
"You s-see I- uh. I'm just going to get to the point, I want to adopt a baby one day and raise it with you." Said Sam with a sweet voice while smiling. When Luna heard this, she hugged Sam extremely tight while Layla was still watching the tv. And started kissing her everywhere on Sam's face.
"Luna, there is a child right here." Sam said while chuckling happily and pointing on Layla.
"Fine, I'll save it for tomorrow. But thanks Sam, I know you didn't want to adopt a child before because of our rock career but I'm happy that you changed your mind!" Said Luna so fast that she lost her breath for a second.
"Me too, but Luna the reason I didn't want to adopt is because of what happened in July. Not because of our busy rock careers." Said Sam. Luna now understood, Sam feared of anything happening to their relationship again like it did in July.
"Sam it was my fault that we broke up. I'm the one who didn't do anything." Said Luna remembering it clearly. The publishing company she worked for didn't want the public to know that she likes girls and tried to keep them separated until Sam had enough and left. It was Luna's fault, she was too scared to ask them to stop out of fear that they might drop her. But after Sam left, she also left the publishers in order to fix things with Sam.
"Sam, I promise you I won't make that mistake again. You know how hard I worked to fix this relationship. It took you about a month to start texting me back but still, it took even longer for us to meet again in real life. I know that I caused you pain and won't let you down again I promise." Said Luna heartfelt. Sam just began to hug Luna and tears started falling from her eyes.
"I'm s-sorry Luna I shouldn't have left you. I thought that I would be fine, but I wasn't. I missed y-you so m-much." Said Sam. While Luna hugs Sam back and comforts her.
"Don't worry were finally together and are stronger than ever. And if you feel like something is wrong then don't be afraid to talk to me. I've always got your back no matter what." Said Luna while stroking the back of her hair. Those words brought a smile to Sam's face as she proceeded to calm down. Luna looks over to where Layla was sitting and saw that she was still watching tv. The room was quiet whit the only sound coming from the tv, Sam decided to change the subject and asked something.
"Luna, I know that you have wanted to stick close to me since our break, but you have been barely spending any time with your siblings. Can you promise that you'll start spending more time with them? And don't worry about me, you can always call or text me if you miss me." Said Sam. Luna continued to hug her and nodded.
"I Promise Sam." Luna said
"Great, now let's watch the tv because I haven't seen this episode before." Said Sam before turning towards the tv and watching with Layla. Luna smiled and watched the tv with her. Hours began to pass, Lynn and Luan both returned looking like hell and smelling like trash. When Luna asked, they just said that they both accidentally fell into a trash can. They went up and Lynn still had that bag with her, Luna could still hear glass inside but didn't ask further. Then after an hour, their parents returned as well as Lori and Leni. That only left one Loud who was not home. After two hours her mom and dad came down to get Layla to sleep. Soon their parents went to sleep being too tired from today.
Then after a while, she heard a knock on the door and went to answer it. When she opened the door, it revealed a happy looking Lincoln. She then remembered why she was at home and told him.
"Welcome back bro. Don't worry I took care of Layla with some help." Luna told him. He walked in and noticed Sam on the couch.
"Hey" Sam said.
"Hey" Lincoln responded.
Luna asked him how it went at the arcade. He told me that he beat Ronnie Anne's score in some dance game. Luna then asked if he would want to watch tv with them. At first, Lincoln refused but then agreed after more convincing. They watched the tv with total silence, sometime Luna would try to start a conversation with him like Sam had asked but that went nowhere. After watching for some time Lincoln got up and went to bed. Soon after another hour, Sam decide it was time for her to leave.
"Luna wanna head home? I'm really tired." Sam said before starting to get up and putting on her shoes.
"No, I'll think that I will stay. Tomorrow the Casagrande's are visiting so I expect that Lincoln will be stressed about hiding or telling them about Layla. Have to be there for my bro." Said Luna while Sam smiled at her and wished her good luck.
After Sam left Luna continued to watch some more tv before deciding to go to sleep.
'Wait where will I sleep? I don't want to wake someone accidentally.' Thought Luna before thinking again.
'Screw it I'm sleeping on the couch.' She laid down on the couch and quickly drifted away into sleep.
