"Rock n' Not Loud Adventures!"
Chapter 22: Parental Point of View...
(October 14. Not too far from The Loud House, Franklin Avenue. Royal Woods, Michigan.)
The school day is done, as usual and we now see Lincoln and Luna, the two siblings are walking to the house, and talking about what have happened today, but mostly... They're talking to each other about what had transpired through some chatter from the school student body.
"Everyone at school is talking about how tough, calm and stern you were to Mick Swagger" replied Lincoln. "That kind of attitude to talk back to a famous rockstar, that sure is something sis. Tabby has now fallen to respect you, for who you truly are. An extremely talented and awesome musician."
Luna smirks. "Thanks, little brother. I'll talk to Tabby when I have the time. That kinda thing has been going on at the High School too, a lot of folks talking about how I stood my ground and denied the offer from Mick Swagger, and Principal Rivers is fine with it, because she bought the ticket from Sam."
"The big issue, were the boys at school. They have seen me as a goddess of some sort, but that is just disturbing and downright creepy. They have been trying to flirt with me, and even offer me some things that I would want, but they don't know me at all. I am really getting annoyed by them."
"At least Assistant Principal Oliver, and the guards stopped the boys and they will be dealing with a week of detention, and some will be attending detention for the rest of the weekend till the end of November. Some have tried to sneak stuff into my locker, and they got a shocker. Lisa's new security system works like a dang charm."
Lincoln is surprised to hear that his big sister is facing these problems, and yet she is managing them. Luna then asks. "So, you ready for tonight and your first ever sleepover at Hunnicutt farms?"
Lincoln nods. "Sure am. We're gonna be spending some awesome and fun farm style fun, and I'll be fine sis. We don't know where we will be staying, but I can handle this. Not my first rodeo to do this kinda thing with sleepovers. Wait, did I just say a country style pun?"
Lincoln and Luna continue to head to the house, but they both have some concerns. 'Mick Swagger won't stop. He will come back again, someday and he will try to reason with Luna/Me to go to his rock n' roll concert. But that will not happen again, we know what to do if he does come back.'
Lincoln and Luna arrive at the house, and then they open the door. They see Leni is on the couch and she is reading a magazine, the twins are watching TV, and Luan is going through her notes on her next birthday gigs, and that she can't do them if they are on October 31. Lucy of course, she is by the chimney and she is ready for the next poem to make, she feels happy about what happened a few nights ago at the Royal Woods Theater.
Luan sees Lincoln and Luna. "Hey guys, welcome home. Also, this is weird. I had this strange feeling that someone did a country style pun about rodeo or something." Luna looks to Lincoln, and the boy is surprised, and this proves it true... Luan Loud is a pun-detector! Get it? Anyone? No one?
Lori then comes down the stairs and she sees them. "Good, you two are back home." She then blows her whistle, and all the louds look towards her, and even Lynn who has her soccer ball and a cold can of Gatorade. "Alright gang, Michelle is at work and she'll be home later. So, sibling meeting. Our room." they all don't know what this is all about, so they all follow Lori to the bedroom which she shares with Leni.
Everyone sits down, and then Lori uses her shoe like a gavel. "Alright, this meeting is now in order."
Lisa then intervenes and she has a paper. "Alright, I shall now speak of what we did during the previous meeting..." Lola goes over and she takes the paper, and this annoys Lisa. "And again, no one wishes for me to finish. Typical." she goes over, and she sits next to Lucy.
Lori then speaks. "Sorry, Lisa. But this meeting has nothing to do with the previous sibling meeting which involved Gran-gran. This meeting which we are having, this is about our siblings, Lincoln and Luna." Lincoln and Luna are confused, and the others look towards them.
Lincoln and Luna then speak. "Excuse me?"
Luan then asks. "Lori, what does this meeting have to do with them?"
Lori then explains. "Guys, for the past few weeks. Lincoln and Luna, I have noticed and I am sure that some of you have also noticed. They have had some instances with the woman caring for us, Michelle Lewis, and so... Lincoln Albert Loud and Luna Marie Loud, we wanna know how you guys feel about Michelle Lewis." they all are surprised to hear this, and so are Lincoln and Luna.
Lincoln speaks first. "Well, if we are going to be honest with you girls. The day we met Michelle Lewis, we didn't like her. Why? Because our parents, Lynnard and Rita hired her and Doug Rockwell to ensure Luna would stay within the range of rock n' roll for their own cause."
Luna then continues. "But then came the day when Michelle ran into me at the mall..." she recalls her other worldly incident and chooses not to tell them. "And she listened to what I had to tell her, about my story and who I am and that I don't wanna be what our damned parents want me to be."
"She listened and she accepted my choice, and she was touched and moved by my story, and then because of her she saved Lincoln from her partner, and got rid of him and then ensured America's Next Hit Maker would never ever come back to make the same mistakes and wrongs from before."
"It was because of Michelle, she helped us deal with our idiotic parents and their stupid nature to make sure we only had our talents, she made sure they needed the lessons to become better parents and see the error of our ways. We owe it to her, Lincoln and myself owe it to Michelle for all she has done for us."
Lori sighs and she nods. "I understand, and we do owe it to her for all she has done. Another thing I wanna point out... You said our parents by their names, and you two seem to call Michelle mom a lot. We tend to do that, only sometimes. So, we wanna know why."
This is something Lincoln and Luna didn't see coming, but since Lori wants to know why, it seems like they should tell them, and so Lincoln goes first. "Okay, we will admit it. We see Michelle Lewis more as a mom than a friend or even a family friend. Because she has done things that Lynnard and Rita never could. Standing up to Ruth, helping with some of the stuff around the house, resolving some of our problems, paying attention to us... But mostly, listening to me and Luna."
That part makes them confused, and so Luna explains. "Girls, back when Lynnard and Rita were still around, the only thing on their minds for us was either getting us what we want, or need, and making sure that the talents we have are doing alright for the future, which is why they tend to want me to become what they seek, a rock n' roll gal. But that is not me, and never will be."
"And recall, that they always tend to forget that they have "11" kids, and they always forget or ignore our only brother, whom they barely even bother with and just getting him something to either stay out of the way or to keep him occupied. Lynnard said he would never ever kick out any of us, well he seemed very content in kicking out Lincoln in a heartbeat, during the whole No Such Luck thing."
"Making him feel like a black sheep, and I get that feeling too." Luna goes over, and she pulls her brother close, and he looks down with sadness, and recalls when he heard what they all said, and it hurt him a lot to know that his parents and sisters didn't want him anymore, it made him feel unwanted, and unloved. But he is glad that Luna showed him that he was still loved.
"Michelle Lewis, she helps listen to the problems we have and to try and resolve them, to comfort us when we feel vulnerable or at our weakest, or when one of us is hurt physically or mentally. Lynnard and Rita were not, and ever since the day Michelle stood up for all of us and placed Aunt Ruth in her place, that was the day when Lincoln and I saw her as a mom, and I know some of you have seen that too."
She was not wrong about that. That day when Michelle stood her ground and put that wretched Aunt Ruth in her place, they felt like looking up to her, because she did what their former parents would never ever do, and something Rita was too blinded to even notice.
Leni then speaks. "Lori and I understand, we have seen this and ever since that day, I kinda feel like she is a mom to us, a better one. Heck, a better parent." This surprises the others, they didn't see this one coming.
Lori then speaks. "What Luna says, is all true. I have seen and noticed it, when I wasn't always occupied with what I always do. They never ever listen to the words Luna says, and even when she says she doesn't wanna be into rock n' roll, those two never ever listen and they keep pestering her, and it is literally annoying, mostly to Luna."
"They tend to forget that they have a son, a middle child within the family. I recall, the day when the Yates came into the neighborhood, our parents talked to them and they told them that they have "10" kids, and from what my memory recalls, they never even mentioned that they have a son. That got me hit hard good, and didn't make sense in my head, but now I know. Michelle listens to Lincoln and Luna, and girls..."
They then see Lincoln has some tears, and he is shaking in fear and sadness. Luna then looks to Lori, and Lori nods. "Go ahead Lunes, take him to his room and keep him comforted, contact the Rosato's if necessary." Luna nods, and she escorts her brother out of the bedroom and away into their own room.
Seeing Lincoln that way, makes them feel bad. Leni, Lucy, the twins and Lily wanna go and comfort him, but then Lori speaks. "Girls, we need to respect Lincoln a little bit more, and not make him feel like he is nothing. Our parents have proven that so many times, and with things changing for the better... We need to change out of our old and very annoying ways and become better people, because we're all growing up and out youth moments can't stay in the past forever."
"We should respect how Luna and Lincoln feel whenever they see or call Michelle mom, we do not intervene or do something to ruin the moment. If they wanna call her mom, then so be it. I have heard some of you call Michelle mom, are we clear on that?"
They all nod and understand, but she fails to notice Lynn Jr, she didn't nod. "Alright, this meeting is dismissed." The other loud sisters leave the room. But Leni, Luan, Lucy, the twins and Lily head for Lincoln to see if he is alright.
Lynn Jr goes back to her own room, and deep down she is in thought. 'What the heck is wrong with those two? What the heck is wrong with the others? I know our 'rents did something stupid and wrong, but they are our parents and I don't even care about what they do or what they could be doing next. I need to remind Lincoln why Lynn Loud Sr and Rita Loud are our parents, but how?'
A/N: There you go and a thank you very much to "Marvelomac1010" for the concept, I am so happy about this and I look forward to more to come, and this also acts as a stepping stone to the start of the episode "Pasture Bedtime" but without the Pool Party. I hope that you all enjoyed reading this newly posted chapter everyone.
