Family of Two.
Chapter 396: A day of testing, and more.
(October 22. Royal Woods Middle School.)
Right now the bell rings, and everyone is prepared and ready for what this day has, and some of them are nervous wrecks and hoping that they can make the pass of this big test, because failure is not an option, this might not be the final test of their school year, but this is still serious for them.
All of the pals and gals from Lincoln and Jordan are all a bit stressed and they try to get their heads focused and into the big test coming now, and they all feel as if they might fail this, but they need to be confident they won't fail, and it seems like Dennis and Patrick are concerned more.
Right now, Clyde and Chloe are not worried at all, in fact they're not even hitting the books and the duo talk about the lessons they have learned, and what they have planned soon, and Chloe has her own plans this Saturday with her family, and that means Clyde can spend antique time with Zach tomorrow.
Lincoln Loud, is also one of the students next to Clyde and Chloe who isn't concerned. He walks down the halls and he is not in the books, he then looks around and sees everyone is stressed and trying to study. 'Dang, everyone is under pressure. Well, I hope they can nail acing this test.'
'I have been able to study and managed to coordinate everything I need to pass this test, studying and focusing and trying my hardest and all of my projects and homework is done and all of it is an A plus and the best grades I got. Second, well third smartest in the class and I know I can pass this.'
'But, I am worried about my friends. Some of them might have a hard time and they might fluke the whole thing and it'd become horrible for their grades. A dang shame we couldn't help each other, but some of them stuck by and did what they can to support each other.'
Then he sees someone he knows and loves, Jordan Rosato and he goes over and greets her, and she is not having her head in the books and Lincoln knows that she did her part and she studied hard. "So, you got plans after this test?"
Jordan smiles and she walks with Lincoln. "Well, after classes I gotta go and pick up Lola and Lana Johnson. Because Agnes Johnson called me and asked if I can keep an eye on Lola and Lana while she's gonna be busy with checking on grades, so this is gonna be a fun afternoon."
They both continue to walk down the hallway and they prepare for the big test that they have to pass.
(Royal Woods High School.)
A moment of studying and heads in the books is going on at the High School, and every student is tryin to focus and recap what they have learned, and some of the troubled delinquents are trying their hardest, when clearly they haven't even studied.
But, the teachers are also locked and loaded for this. They have all done their best and they have checked if they have the right number of test papers and they cannot leave one out of the number count, and all of them have some coffee and are also prepared for what comes after, the moment when they check all the test papers and grade them and that one is gonna be long and tough to do.
But, Luna Loud is walking down the halls and her head is not in the books and she seems fine. 'Alright, Luna Loud. You spent the whole week can calmed down, and now you can… Oh, there's…. Sam?' Sam looks stern and she grabs Luna and brings her into the band room.
They see Sully and Mazzy are in there and talking to each other, and then they see Luna confused, and her arm held by a stern Sam. "Get out, we need some alone time to talk." Mazzy and Sully are confused, and this angers Sam. "Are you two deaf?! Get the hell outta here!"
Sully and Mazzy grab their things and they bail out. Sam locks the door and she covers the windows and then she looks to Luna and she is confused. "Sammy, what the heck is wrong? Also, that was kinda too far yelling at our band mates like that."
Sam crosses her arms and looks to her sternly. "Luna, you snapped at Lincoln the other day, our kid." Luna is shocked to hear this. "How do I know? Well, Linc told me after you yelled at him! Was all that because of the whole marching band getting hurt from the other day? Huh?!"
Luna is surprised to hear this, but it makes sense why Lincoln would call Sam and she can't blame him for doing that. Luna sighs and nods. "Yeah, that's all true and I snapped when I accused him of taking and reading my diary, when clearly that was on me and…"
Sam then slaps her, and this stuns Luna Loud. She has some tears and then she looks to Sam and covers her sore cheek. "S-Sammy?"
Sam then calms down and she goes over to Luna. "That, was all uncalled for and sorry for slapping you. I was angry at what you did, because I can get that you'd be annoyed if you had a period, but to just snap at our boy and not let him explain… Well, that is a fucking load of horseshit and stupid."
Luna nods and she wipes away her tears, and then Sam places her hands onto her shoulders. "But you two made amends after what happened, and he would always love you. Even after some dumb shit that goes down, but I don't want something like this to happen again."
Luna nods and she hugs Sam and the blonde teen returns the embrace. "You made a mistake, and you made amends, and everything is gonna be alright again Lunes. Sorry for slapping you too."
Luna then calms down. "N-No, you have nothing to be sorry for… I kinda deserved it, after what I did to my son, I just… I have to be careful with what I do. He loves me no matter what, but I don't want him to be hurt again, it makes me feel hurt."
Sam then hugs her some more and Luna returns this embrace, a moment for a test has become a moment of truths, feelings and so many emotions.
(Royal Woods Elementary School.)
At the Royal Woods Elementary School, both Lola and Lana walk by some students and they don't even bump into them, and Lana even for some reason walks on the locker and she goes back to the ground and this confuses Skippy who walks by them. Right now the wins are more focused on making their grades better than before, and they don't wanna fail.
Lola. 'This is it. I cannot make a mistake! I wanna prove that I can be smart too, and with Lana we can pass this test! Also, if what my mom says is true then… Then maybe next year, I can return to pageantry, but with a whole new change, and a whole new Lola! Lola Loud is gone, and I am Lola Johnson!'
Lana. 'We can't fail this. We can do this, we have been studying hard, and I have been avoiding mud puddles and other outdoor stuff to focus on this and even Hops helped me. Let's not make the studying stuff we did fail. We have to pass and get better grades.'
As they walk by, they don't notice their mother, Agnes Johnson walks by and she has some test papers for her students to try and answer, and she goes into her classroom to begin the big test to the 6th graders. Meanwhile, Lisa seems not so upset or nervous about this.
Lisa then looks to the reader. "Why am I not worried? This the 1st grade and everything doesn't seem so hard, so Darcy and I have nothing to worry about. Also, I know what to do. Genius after all." She then goes over to her sister, Darcy and they both walk to their classroom and get ready.
Lucy is at her locker and she closes it, she then meets with her friend Rocky. "Hey, Rocky. Are you nervous about this big test?"
Rocky chuckles. "Nope, not really. I don't think this test is a big problem for me. After all, I studied and chances I am gonna pass this, and I know you can do. From what I recall…" He then blushes. "We did have that study date, right?"
Lucy also blushes. "Yeah, we did and surely we can make the grade and get better grades. How're things back home?" they both continue to walk down the halls and talk about what else is going on, and they walk by Haiku and she smiles seeing this.
'I can see that the future of Lucy and Rocky, is going to be a great one. They both have feelings for each other, and to the fact they seem to care about each other's social lives… Well, they're life is gonna be beyond their times in High School. I know it.' She then walks down the halls to her locker, to get ready for the test, but then she has this odd feeling.
'Strange, I have this odd feeling that someone is going to call tomorrow, about an ominous haunting.'
(Fairway University.)
We now go to the college where Carol Pingrey is, and as of right now she is busy making her skills better, improving herself and her skills seem to be as good as Lori Loud from long ago, but even Carol wouldn't wish to be better than Lori, she knows Lori is the best.
She makes the hit, and the golf ball flies and reaches all the way to the hole, and she nails the shot. "Yes! Nailed it! The big Petoskey Open tournament is coming up, and I wanna make a good dang impression as a freshmen of this college. Surely, we can win this!"
Carol then hears her phone go off and she goes over to her bag nearby and she sees who it's from and she smiles when she sees that it's from Bobby and she giggles at the cute picture he sent. "Hmm, cute." She then texts a response, and then she puts her phone away and she goes over to practice some more.
Carol prepares another ball, but to her surprise, one has already been placed on her tee. "Whoa what the heck? Wait, what?" Carol looks around and she sees no one. "Well, that's weird." So she goes over to put her club away and grab another club, when suddenly one of the clubs starts floating with a mysterious aura.
Carol rubs her eyes and she sees that her club is back in the bag and she sighs in relief and is confused. "You know, maybe I've been practicing out here for too long. Maybe I should… Well, get something to drink." Carol grabs her bags and then she leaves the range.
But Carol doesn't know, that this is just the start of what haunting is to come here in Fairway University. Looks like Haiku was right.
To be continued in the next chapter.
A/N: Looks like they're all locked, and loaded to ace the big test, and while that is happening, Carol is about to be "Ghosted!" Time for some help, soon and that help will be from the loud ghost and the Shapiro Goth girl. Leave a review and tell me what you all think of this chapter guys.
