I do not own The Loud House. All rights belong to Nickelodeon.

(1216 Franklin Avenue, 1:00 p.m.)

In the house that lives up to its name, a wild party was being thrown for the chaotic family. The party was celebrating all the family's achievements from Lori's golf trophy, Leni winning another fashion contest, Luna earning a platinum record, etc., all their family, friends, and significant others were in the living room partying, except for one, that being the sole Loud boy, Lincoln. Upstairs, with a cross look on his face, Lincoln was packing his clothes, comics, sketchbook, and guitar. Also, a receipt for a plane ticket.

FLASHBACK

Two days before the party started, Rita and Lynn Sr. decided to make an announcement.

"Kids, your mother and I are so proud of all the things you have accomplished!" Lynn Sr. said proudly.

"So, we have decided to throw a party to celebrate all your achievements!" Rita said happily.

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY" cried the Loud siblings in unison.

"This party is going to be awesome!" Lincoln said

However, the parents decided to break the ice to Lincoln.

"OH, sorry sport, but you can't be a part of this party." Lynn Sr. said to his son

"WHAT?!, WHY?!" Lincoln cried in shock

"Because this party is to commemorate all your sisters' accomplishments, while you have not achieved anything, or found your calling yet, when the day comes, you will be spending the night in your room until it is over. Sorry sport." Lynn Sr. said remorsefully

"BUT!" Lincoln shouted in anger and depression

"Sorry sweetie, but our decision is final, it's nothing personal." Rita said

"Now, let's start planning for the party." Lynn Sr. declared

Rita knelt next to Lincoln "Don't worry sweetheart, maybe next time." said Rita

As everyone started planning for the party they failed to notice, Lincoln not moving feeling betrayed and shunned once again with an irritated look on his face thinking only one thing.

"Not personal? It is very personal, because now, there is not going to be a next time" thought Lincoln

FLASHBACK ENDED

"Haven't achieved anything, or haven't found your calling," that sentence from his own father rang in his head, repeatedly. Lincoln had found his calling, but his so-called "family" has not decided to ask or let him show them. Lincoln had found his passion in art, when he made "The Full House Gang," but his sisters and parents did not care. He also found a new passion for music, he joined band class five weeks before the day of the party came, where he learned how to play the guitar, electric and acoustic, plus he knew how to sing, but once again they shunned him and did not acknowledge him. He had reached his breaking point and decided to run away.

So ever since his parents made the decision for the party, Lincoln started preparations to run away and start his life over. Using the money, he had which he hardly ever got to spend used some of it to buy a plane ticket to Nashville Tennessee. As he was packing, he heard a knocking at his door and told whoever it was to come in.

"Heya Mate!" came a recognizable voice

Lincoln looked to his door and saw one of his "dates" from the Sadie Hawkins dance, Luna's friend Tabby.

"Hey Tabby, what a surprise." said Lincoln with a smile

"It's been a while mate, how have you been?" Tabby asked with a smile

"I've been doing ok" Lincoln lied "What do you need? Shouldn't you be downstairs partying?" Lincoln asked confused

"I saw everyone else downstairs except you, so I decided to-" Tabby stopped noticing his bag packed with his stuff.

"Are you going somewhere mate?" Tabby asked

Lincoln thought about lying, but he knew he could not lie his way through this.

"Yes" Lincoln answered truthfully

"Where are you going? Don't you want to come down and join the party?" Tabby asked with a worried tone

"The thing is Tabby; I can't join this party because I'm not allowed to." said Lincoln

Tabby instantly got confused, "Why not mate?" Tabby asked with confusion

"Lynn Sr. and Rita, said that I am not allowed to join the party, because to them I have not achieved anything, or found my calling. I have wanted to show them, but they always brushed it off. So, they decided that I am to stay in my room until the party's over." said Lincoln with rage in his voice

"WHAT?!" Tabby shouted in shock

"That's not the only reason why I'm running away." Lincoln admitted

"Wait, there's another reason?" Tabby asked shockingly

"Well more than one, strap yourself in, because this is going to make you furious." Lincoln said

Lincoln told the British Rocker every horrid thing the Louds have done from the Sister Fight Protocol to the Bad Luck incident, even when he was called a "Life Ruiner," he even showed Tabby video proof of all those events happening.

When he was done Tabby had steam coming out of her head and had her teeth clenched tightly. All her respect and trust for Luna was gone.

Tabby now understood why Lincoln was leaving, he was abused, neglected, and taken advantage of for so long, and his compassion, love, trust, and respect for them had shattered.

"So where are you going, love?" Tabby questioned

"I'm heading to Nashville Tennessee." Lincoln said

"THE MUSIC CITY?!" Tabby said in astonishment

"It was my dream destination when I got into music, but I unintentionally bought two tickets and I don't know if I should throw away the extra one or give it to someone else." Lincoln stated

Tabby understood Lincoln's situation, should he go alone, or go with someone? She immediately decided to act.

"I'll go with you, mate." Tabby decided

"What? Are you sure?" Lincoln asked

Tabby nodded in confirmation

"Tabby, you do not need to do this, you have a good life here, you have a family that loves you, friends that support you and a bright future ahead of you. There is nothing left for me here." Lincoln said

"I know Lincoln, but you shouldn't go alone, with how much you went through you deserve happiness, plus I've seen you play and sing, and I love it, I know other people would love to hear it." Tabby said

They both blushed as Tabby realized she said she loved his voice.

"T-thanks, but what about your family?" Lincoln said

"I have a way to contact them, I know they will understand." Tabby said

Knowing she was not going to change her mind, Lincoln agreed to take her with him. After the decision was made Lincoln was done packing, they made a video on why Lincoln ran away, and snuck out the window. Lincoln went first and landed on his feet cleanly. When Tabby snuck out, she had accidentally slipped and fell, but Lincoln caught her, holding her bridal style causing them to blush. Lincoln let her down softly and both looked away holding their blushes. After the awkward session was over, they made their way to Tabby's house so she could pack some of her stuff. After Tabby packed her necessities, and guitar, they made their way to a bus stop.

When they got onto the bus, they sat near the front, and it took off for the airport. Tabby looked at Lincoln and gently grabbed his hand. He looked at her and saw her holding his hand and giving him a comforting smile. He smiled back at her, causing them to blush. Lincoln then looked out the window passing by his former home, thinking only one thing. "I'm finally free."
