Chapter 19
"Well the thing is that I promised my sisters that I would bring them to Burpin' Burgers around five that afternoon but the limo and everything in between got the best of me" Lincoln explained looking down on the table as a pair of hands placed his treat in front of him. He then grabbed his utensils and began to eat the expensive brownie.
"Ohh...I see. So you let the whole thing get to your head, Lincoln?" Alexa asked. With a small frown, he nodded slowly.
"Hey cheer up. It happens to some people. It's quite normal. When you're in that life, everything seems to be better than you imagined?" Audria reassured as she rubbed his back.
"Yes, cheer up son. I've seen people get really into it before and it really changes them. If you were to ask me how I feel about, I would say that I'm in between happy and sad. Happy because you live life better than others in a way and sad because you think that it really isn't right" Luthor said looking a bit sad from that statement.
"Here's you're check guys" The waitress said handing Luthor the bill.
"How did you guys get rich anyway? You said after you gave the Louds the basket with me in it, you said you don't really remember anything afterwards but I do believe that there's more to it" Lincoln said gaining Audria's attention. Each of the Burlington family members took a quick glance at one another and then the two parents and Lexi nodded their heads to Audria, telling her to lie.
"Well to be honest, we're not entirely sure what happened. We believe that a rich person generous enough gave us a lot of money to help us. I don't what the name on the check was" Audria informed.
"So you ready to go home kiddo? To the Louds?" Alexa asked. After a nod, all five of them went to the limo that recently pulled up in front of the restaurant. They soon dropped Lincoln home.
"Bye. Love you, Lincoln" Audria said as she wrapped her arms around him but not before giving him a kiss on the cheek. Lexi and the two older adults did as well.
When Lincoln was out of the limo, Audria then questions her parents.
"Mom, Why did you want me to lie to Lincoln?" Audria asked.
"He already knows that we're his true blood family" Lexi added.
"True but it will be worth it tomorrow when we tell him along with the rest of the kids and staff at the fundraiser tomorrow at his school" The father explained.
"Yeah...but I still think that we should've told him" Lexi inquired feeling sad along with Audria that they had to lie to Lincoln. After that, the ride back to the mansion was piecefull.
Walking into the house, he was then tackled by a happy and energetic Lynn. Hard to believe she still possessed a lot of energy at night.
"Welcome home, Linky" The jock said giving him a bear hug.
"H...h..ey Lynn...c..can you g..get off me?" He asked struggling to even talk.
"Sorry about that Linc. I'm just happy to see you" Lynn said happily.
"I can see that due to the pain I'm experiencing after that death hug you gave me" Lincoln said panting.
"I'm going to go to bed. I'm kind of tired" Lincoln said going upstairs.
"Oh...ok" She said sadly.
"Would you like to join me?" Lincoln said looking over his shoulder towards her. This just made the jock perk up. Running up the steps, both of them went to Lincoln's room for the night.
The next day, Lincoln got off the bus and headed towards the enterance but a voice yelled for him.
"Hey Lincoln!" It said happily. Turning around, the white haired boy spotted Lexi standing next to Audria. With curiosity, the boy walked over to the two Burlington family members.
"What are you doin here?" Lincoln asked looking at them with pure confusion.
"Well my family and I are here for the fundraiser for Alzheimer's. Our grandfather had it pretty bad back then. Too bad he isn't here to help" Audria said looking down. Without Lincoln knowing, he was being watched by the school's newspaper committee.
"Hey, why are the two daughters of one of the riches families in Royal Woods talking to that loser?" One kid asked to his friend, who was currently jotting down notes.
"I don't know. Maybe they know him from somewhere and they want to say hi" The partner asked as he continued to write down more notes. Lincoln and the Burlington sisters parted ways towards their respective destination.
"Hey Loud, How do you know those two girls? They're like one of the riches families in this state" One of school reporters asked the Loud boy.
"Well I've known them for a long time. It's been a long time since I saw them" He lied to the reporter.
"Well ok" The other reporter said then walked away with his partner.
A few periods in there was an assembly out on the football field. Some of them were excited to watch this family talk about the disease of Alzheimer's because they wanted to be a doctor in the future while others could really careless.
"Alright, you kids. Settle down" The principal said over the mic. The kids soon calmed down and took their respective seats.
"Good. Now that everything is all situated, let's begin" Huggins said fixing his notes for the introduction.
"Well as some of you may know, today is Alzheimer's Day and no it's not a fun filled day. Today is the day we reflect on the ones that died from the disease. Today, we have very important people joining us today. They are the Burlington family " He continued as they walked up on stage next to the old guy.
Now without any further ado, I'm giving them the floor" Huggins said moving over to the side. Lexi then tapped the mic lightly to check the sound.
"Hello guys, my name is Lexi and this is my younger sister Audria and of course, my parents" She said as they waved to the audience.
"Before we start this meeting, we would like to bring up a special someone who just met us recently about a couple weeks ago, who would hopefully help us in this fundraiser and support" Lexi said gaining the confusion of the crowd.
"Is Lincoln Loud in the audience today?" Mrs. Burlington asked. This caught everyone's attention to why would they ask about him as the boy made his way up to the family members.
