All right, we are nearing the final day of Clynn Week here, as we go to the final prompt, which is 'Growing Up'! This is my big chance to write for a future fanfiction featuring paired up fictional characters, which I always wanted to do... and well, I'm finally doing it! Anyway, enjoy!
CLYNN WEEK: DAY 7: GROWING UP
It was early one Saturday morning when an African-American man of twenty-seven woke up and yawned. The man slowly reached for his glasses, prepared to take on anything this world had to offer, but before he could properly get up, two arms snaked around his waist, pulling the man closer to a female body.
"Honey, where on earth do you think you're going?" A brown-haired girl about twenty-nine asked as she gave a small smirk.
"I'm just going to hit the shower." The man said.
"Uh, no you're not. You're staying in bed with your sporty, strong wife!" The woman complained as she pulled him closer.
"Oh, don't give me that, you're usually out of bed. You would want me out of bed at this point." The man rolled his eyes.
"True, but for my exercise idea, I want to try out my stamina." The woman smirked.
"Isn't it a little early in the morning to be 'testing' our 'stamina'?" The man raised an eyebrow.
"Come on, Clyde, are you chicken or what?" The woman asked, frowning a little.
"I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about... you know who walking in." Clyde smirked.
The girl pouted a little as she said, "You raise a good point. I wouldn't want our little girl traumatized by our little escapades."
"Can you please let me go now so I can have my shower?" Clyde asked. "Please, Lynn?"
"Oh, all right. I suppose we'll train our stamina another way." Lynn sighed as she let go of the man. "But come tonight, when our little one is at her sleepover, we will be getting our freak on!"
Clyde just chuckled to himself as he got up. "Believe me, I'm looking forward to it..."
"I'll get Clynn up." Lynn said as she was stretching out of bed and opened up the night stand next to her to pull out a horn. "Thank you, Luna, for this lovely Christmas gift..."
"Clynn's not going to be happy with you when you do that." Clyde smirked, trying to put the reminder through her head.
Lynn could only scoff. "Oh, please, she loves these little wake-up calls!"
Clyde could only laugh as he started to head for the shower. And as soon as he closed the door, he heard the loud horn sound from the other head of the room, followed by a shriek in the other room and some voices.
"MOM! SERIOUSLY!" A little girl's voice screamed in anger.
"Get up, little warrior! We are training today!" Lynn's voice followed soon with an excited tone.
"Mom... it's too early in the morning for this!" The little girl's voice groaned.
"Come on, Clynn! Your father and I always train our bodies since we got together, you got to train yours too!" Lynn's voice said. "We can't have you pigging out all the time, can we?" Lynn pointed out.
"Where is Daddy, anyway?" Clynn's voice said.
"Taking his shower. He'll be joining us in a few minutes for exercise! Now get dressed and let's get ourselves moving! Who knows? We might visit your Uncle Lincoln and Auntie Ronnie today!" Lynn's voice said with a hint of happiness in her voice.
"Really? Oh boy! They always give the best gifts!" Clynn said in excitement.
Clyde shook his head as he decided to take his shower. After about ten to fifteen minutes of finishing up his shower and drying off, as he started to brush his teeth, the man looked at the mirror and sighed, hardly believing everything he went through since the day he fell for Lynn.
Sure, Clyde had to admit that as a kid, he never gave anyone else the time of day in terms of romance. His dream was always about falling for Lori, but as time went on, Clyde had eventually came to realize that Lori Loud just wasn't interested. He didn't know how or when exactly he fell for Lynn, but he didn't care. Even though Clyde admitted that she can be pretty pushy and intimidating, she was actually pretty cute once she managed to cool down and soften up a bit. She was still interested in sports, and she did manage to get a job as a high school coach and gym teacher as they grew up. Even when they were in the same college, they still found time to date and to help each other in their studies.
And despite their jobs being different, Clyde being a doctor and Lynn, as mentioned before, being a gym teacher, they still found time for each other... and it was no surprise that when they got out of college, Clyde popped the question to Lynn, which she happily accepted with glee, and both families couldn't be more proud or happy for them. As Clyde felt around his face, wondering if he needed to shave anything, his mind wandered over to the wedding, which was a most chaotic, yet wonderful affair. Heck, some of Lynn's old tendencies would kick in at the after-party, when the setting was in a basketball court. Heck, she even tried throwing their wedding cake up in the basket... and Clyde would always encourage her, much to some people's disappointments.
Still, it was pretty funny for them... and quite an enjoyable experience it was. The fact that Lynn would later go on to be pregnant with their daughter during their honeymoon was also quite a surprise for them, but they found themselves enjoying the idea of a little kid running around the house... though at the same time, Lynn knew that some of the girls had been inherited with their parent's urges (considering that the Loud family IS a very big family). Thankfully, for her, she didn't seem to acquire the ability, but judging from Lincoln and Ronnie-Anne's family so far, they already had at least four kids so far... two girls and two boys, and Ronnie-Anne definitely had another one on the way, much to Lincoln's delight and concern.
Still, Clyde was quite all right when their daughter came to be... a cute little girl that had Clyde's ears and hair color, but Lynn's facial expressions and eyes. Both of them raised their child quite well during their time, even through tough and rough times, but it had all been worth it in the end. As for the current future, Clyde didn't know yet what would happen, but he knew one thing for sure... he didn't want to let this life go.
As soon as Clyde finished in the bathroom, he started to head downstairs where Lynn was watching their little girl doing push-ups. Lynn looked up and smiled, seeing her husband brushed up and dressed for the occasion. "Hey, honey!"
"Daddy! Thank goodness!" Clynn sighed in relief as she dropped position.
"Take five, sweetie. You earned your exercise." Lynn gave a giggle as Clynn got up, exhausted.
"You overwork me too much, Mom!" Clynn said, giving a glare to her mother.
"Maybe so, but it doesn't mean you should be slacking off." Lynn said. "Take it from me, kid!"
Clyde chuckled as he bent down towards his daughter. "What's the matter, Clynn? Mom being a little strict in the exercise compartment?"
"HEY!" Lynn frowned as she lightly punched Clyde in the arm. "You know you just said that out loud in front of me, right?"
Clynn could only laugh as Clyde gave a roll of his eyes. "You're right, sweetheart. You're not strict... you're obsessed."
"Why you-" Lynn gave a smirk as she started tickling Clyde's stomach.
"Wh- hey, Lynn, I- I'm ticklish right there!" Clyde laughed. "St-stop, p-please!"
"Not until you say you're sorry!" Lynn giggled as Clynn could only watch, her eyes rolling a little.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Uncle, uncle!" Clyde laughed as Lynn stopped tickling him.
"Well, that's more like it." Lynn said as she turned to Clynn. "Well, I suppose there's no use just standing around. Hit the showers, kiddo, then dress up! After breakfast, we're heading to Uncle Lincoln and Aunt Ronnie's place!"
"Yes, Mom!" Clynn said as she instantly ran up towards the bathroom.
Clyde gave a chuckle as he turned towards his lovely wife. "You know, you really do have a knack for this..."
"I admit, I was a little nervous about parenting, but after a while, it's not so bad..." Lynn laughed... before pausing, much to Clyde's notice.
"Is everything all right?" Clyde asked.
"Yeah, well... it's just... hey, Clyde... when we do our... ritual tonight, can we do it... without... you know?" Lynn blushed as Clyde's eyes began to widen.
"Are you saying th-" Clyde started.
Lynn smiled. "I was just thinking Clynn might need a little brother or sister around."
Clyde gave a grin as he heard the water running in the shower room. "I suppose we could use another little pitter patter of feet."
Lynn gave a giggle as both of them looked out the window towards the rising sun. As they did so, both man and woman snuggled towards each other as smiles spread on their faces. And both of them had the same thought on their minds...
"This is probably the best scenario any of us could ever ask for."
