Family of Two.
Chapter 126: The former Sporty.
(Traverse City Juvenile Hall.)
Lynn Jr, formerly a loud and was one of the older daughters within the family and now she is here. After the incidents with some bad luck, she is now serving her sentence for what she has done. Though she should be serving longer, she has received that she could be released once she is 15 or 16, something she did not see coming.
Lynn Jr was a depressed mess when she came there, but then her spirits were lifted when she met her new friend, Annabelle C. McCann. Now they're first encounter met in a way that hurt one of them, but they got over it and through the help of Annabelle, was Lynn able to see things clearly, that she must seek redemption and pay for the mistakes she made in another way.
Lynn gets up and she sees her roommate is changing in front of her. "Well, this seems normal."
Annabelle is shocked that she's awake and she covers her chest. "Oh wow. Sorry, I didn't know you were awake. Also, I just got back from the showers and I think you should go and do the same too."
Lynn chuckles. "Easy there Anne, I'm used to seeing a girls chest. I was in a house with lots of sisters." She then grabs her towel and walks away. "Well, see ya in breakfast roomie."
Annabelle chuckles. "Y-Yeah, see ya too." But deep down, she feels like something is building up, something she wants to tell Lynn. 'How do I tell her?'
(Later.)
Lynn is dressed in her orange attire and she walks into the cafeteria with her food and with her is Annabelle. "So, today's the day huh?" asked Annabelle.
Lynn nods. "Yeah, today is the day I… I go and see Lincoln and Luna, or better yet they come here and see me." Lynn then eats her bacon and then she stops. "I'm sorry, it's just gonna be so hard for me."
"Soon, the boy I saw as my brother is coming and so is the girl who was once my sister. The very siblings I forsakened into the trouble that is today. I started this and now they're gonna come here and check on me. This is not gonna be an easy task to go by."
Annabelle feels her sorrow. "Lynn, I know the feeling. I still recall when my mom and dad came to talk to me and they felt happy I was changing, but deep down I was a nervous wreck and thought they'd hate me for what I did to come here. But they weren't, they knew my mistakes and they saw that I coul change and so here I am, trying to change."
"I'm sure Lincoln and Luna will see it too. You sent all those letters to them and all of them are about what you have been doing and how much you regret what you did and how you wish it would've been different and you'd still have the family you knew and love. I may not know if they'll be upset or not, but you won't know till you go and see them for yourself."
"And not just that, but we all have been down that road. All of us." Lynn sees some of the inmates there look to her with sympathetic smiles, they know what it's like to feel like you're loved ones hate you for being there, but deep down they don't hate you. Not forever.
Lynn then looks to her cellmate and smiles. "You know what, you're right Annabelle. I don't have to feel worried that they'll hate me still, all I need to know is that if they think I can be redeemed and I won't know till I see them."
"Thanks Annabelle. You're the best cellmate and best friend I could ever have." Lynn then hugs her.
Annabelle is surprised by this, but she kindly returns the hug. "That's what friends do and I wanna help you with your path to be back in society again." But deep down, she has some other thoughts. 'How the heck do I tell you how I feel?'
They then depart from the hug and continue to eat. Then Lynn has an idea. "Hey Annabelle. How would you like to come with me and talk to them?"
Annabelle is shocked. "W-What? Really?"
Lynn nods. "The reason why, is because they will wanna speak to someone who knows….. That kid from the TV. T-The one from the race thing."
Annabelle knows who she means and she nods. "I will come with you. I wanna apologize for what happened, because that bastard of a cousin bares the last name that I have too."
They were both on the same page and both of them had a lot to discuss about.
(Hours later.)
With their classes over. Lynn and Annabelle, place their books into the room they share, and then they both walk down the halls to the meeting area and both of them are slightly nervous.
Lynn feels worried and nervous about Lincoln and Luna still showing some resent after what she did to Lincoln during the summer, but deep down she sucks up some courage to see if what she worries about might be true.
Annabelle is worried that they might not like her due to the last name, but she won't know till she meets them and tells then that she had nothing to do with Chandler and hates the kid to the core for his actions and past misdeeds.
The two preteen girls are then being escorted by some guards and they make it to the meeting place and they see them. Right there, by the chairs and tables of the place with no other folks but some guards.
Wearing a white and black striped shirt with a purple jacket, blue knee torn jeans, white belt and purple boots and standing close to the table, is Luna Loud and she doesn't seem happy to be there.
Next to her, wearing an orange shirt with a dark gray jacket and still on the wheel chair but wearing dark blue jeans and white sneakers is Lincoln Loud and he looks a little nervous to be there.
Both parties look to each other in silence, Annabelle tries to walk away but Lynn drags her. Dang it.
Lynn and Annabelle step forward. "Hi guys, we have some stuff to talk about huh?" asked Lynn Jr.
Luna sighs. "Yes we do." Luna sits and Lincoln uses the hover chair to be close to his mom. "So, junior. How're things going here? Besides the fact we read about them in the letters you sent."
Lynn tries her best to come up with the words she needs to say. "Well, I'm trying to improve after some failed grades and I don't even need a tutor for it either. I am progressing in classes and…. Well, things have been not so bad in here. I mean, I used to be a snapshot when someone went near me."
"But then I calmed down and eased up a bit, when I met my roomie here who didn't wanna give up on me and wanted to help me. She's a good friend and I'm glad she's here to help me see my new clear path through, along with some other inmates who understand me."
"Good for you then LJ" said Luna. "Trying to see through the errors of the past. I think a chance for redemption could be inbound, but a long road to drive through."
Lynn nods. "So, anything we should…"
"The court date is tomorrow" said Lincoln. "The court date on when we put Chandler McCann locked away for a long, long time is tomorrow and along with that friend of his from Bobbie Fletcher's pit crew team. Lori said she's gonna come and be there, Leni said she'll just listen from the radio and Lucy will be there as well as some other folks to the private court hearing."
Luna is not surprised he said that, the one thing that comes to his thoughts was that and not his former sister. Lynn understands, Lincoln is going through some hard times trying to talk to her and so Annabelle does the talking.
"Lincoln, Luna. What my cousin did, was completely unforgivable. What he did, he stepped out of line and did something his demented popularity hungry mind wanted and I am disgraced that he was part of the family, I did get a letter from my mom and dad and they told me that my uncle and auntie have disowned him and now he's not a McCann anymore."
"I assure you, I am not like Chandler. I made some mistakes when I got a bit aggressive in sports and now I'm here. But what Chandler did, is something I wouldn't do unless it's to keep my family safe. I never liked him, never did and I know that the cause of his actions was lack of guidance from his parents, the parents who are somewhere in the country and possibly into hiding."
Luna nods. "We know you had nothing to do with it Annabelle. We're sorry it has to be that way being embarrassed like that, but glad he's not part of the family anymore."
Lynn feels like this sounds familiar, like something she went through with her family. But she remains silent.
"So, I want in" said Annabelle. They all look to her, even the warden is shocked. "I want in to see him get locked away and I wanna confess the bad things he did when we were living close by. I want everyone to know just how horrid he was, even before I moved out of Royal Woods."
That one they did not see coming. Lynn is shocked. 'Annabelle was from Royal Woods? What?'
Luna looks to the warden who nods, he thinks this is a good idea. Luna then looks to her son.
Lincoln looks to Annabelle and sees a bit of himself in her, someone who has been through worse and would love nothing more than to make sure that family member is locked away. "We'll see what we can do Anabelle McCann to get you be part of the whole court. But I do wanna ask."
"What is it?" asked Annabelle.
"First the middle name C, what does it stand for?" asked Lincoln.
Annabelle chuckles. "Carmichael. My middle name is Carmichael. Annabelle Carmichael McCann."
They recall that the owner of Reiningers is a Carmichael and the last name of Kat is also Carmichael.
"Umm, are you related to a Carmichael in town who is the owner of the shopping store in the mall, or to someone named Kat Carmichael?" asked Luna.
"No" replied Annabelle. "Chances those are family removed three times from us, no clue who those folks are though."
Lincoln sighs. "Okay, I guess we should go now. That's all we needed to do here." He then moves his hover chair to go back to the main door.
Lynn gets up. "Lincoln… Wait." But Luna blocks her.
"Lynn, I know you wanna talk to him. But, he doesn't wanna talk to you. Everything that's been happening, ever since this family started has shaken him still and talking to you is not gonna be an easy stick."
"The sole reason why we came here, was for him to see how you're doing. I don't even know if I can get him to talk, or even try to start something up with you. Things aren't gonna be an easy thing to get over and we don't know what could happen next if we do come back."
"We already spoke with Lori and Leni, because we can trust them to change. Lucy lives nearby and she has been forgiven, we have no clue where the twins are, Lisa refuses to speak to us and we all know why, Lynn Sr and Rita are trying their best to try and be forgiven and as for Luan well….. Well…"
Lynn is confused. "Luna, what happened with Luan?"
Luna can see the confused and worried face from Lynn. "Luan might not be the same ever again. Chances, she's far gone down the bad side of the road."
Lynn felt sick, sick to her stomach at what she's hearing. The family is either being forgiven or has been forgiven, but some may have lost themselves and might not be the same family she knows and loves. She then looks to Lincoln who has his back turned on her.
"I understand Luna, maybe someday when you guys come back here. Then he'll talk, I know it'll take some time, but I can wait. I'm patient now, a changed Lynn and all for the better and for the future."
Luna smiles. "See you around LJ." She then walks away, but she does stop and look back. "For the record, we don't hate you, well not anymore. But we are still kinda disappointed, at everything you've done and forgiveness and trust are two things that cannot be easy to gain, you know that."
Lynn nods. "See you guys soon and take care, also kick his ass when the court is done."
Lincoln then speaks. "We will, see you around Lynn." Soon, Lincoln and Luna walk away from the place, they then leave the building and the warden also speaks to them about letting Annabelle come to the private court hearing.
Lynn sighs and she walks back to her cell, with Annabelle following behind. "You okay there Lynn?"
Lynn smiles. "Yeah, I am. I see now that they don't hate me. But even though they are disappointed, I know that deep down they know I've changed and that one day I will be forgiven and we might not be family. But at least when the day comes, we'll be friends. Family friends."
Annabelle smiles. "That's the spirit, show no worry and look forward to what will happen for the future, I'm proud of you LJ."
Lynn smirks. "Thanks." She then grabs Annabelle's hand. ""Now come on! Let's go and get you ready for the court hearing tomorrow!" She then runs back to the cell they share.
Annabelle blushes and looks to her hand that is being held by Lynn. 'Oh. My. God.'
Some of the inmates notice this as they race past the other cells and they all smirk. 'Well, it's about dang time!' Yup, they know Annabelle has a crush on Lynn Jr.
A/N: Not quite the talk and encounter some of you have expected, but I know many of you have been asking for Annabelle and Lynn to be in a relationship, well this is just the beginning of it, soon it will blossom, very soon my friends. So be patient, and be ready for the next chapter. Time to make sure Chandler never gets out and do more trouble. Leave a review and tell me what you all think.
