Lincoln was on his way home from school still angry at his family and Stella for interfering in his life. Lincoln's parents showed no mercy with his punishment: no tv, no video games, no comic books and no leaving the house except for school and on the rare occasion he can leave the house not without one of his older sisters watching him. Lincoln came up to his door and entered his house to find his oldest sister Lori and Bobby watching tv on the couch.
"Hey little bro. How was school?" Lori asked.
Lincoln walked past her and up the stairs to his room ignoring his sister completely. Lori groaned before she got up and grabbed Lincoln halfway up the stairs.
"Lincoln, it's been two days you can't stay mad at us forever." Lori said.
"I can try." Lincoln said.
"Uhh Lincoln can't you see we did this for your own good." Lori said. "And you will literally thank us one day."
"Don't count on it." Lincoln said.
"What happened at the concert anyway bro? And How did you get that hickey?" Bobby asked.
"Well we had a great time, we were really able to cut loose." Lincoln said.
"I'd rather you got a cut than that hickey." Lori said.
"How'd that happen anyway?" Bobby asked.
"Well I took your advice." Lincoln said.
"Advice?" Lori said, looking angrily at Bobby making him nervous.
"I did exactly what you said Bobby, I let Maggie take the reins and I let myself be open for anything." Lincoln said.
Bobby's eyes widened in fear at his girlfriend hearing the role he played in her brother's forbidden relationship.
"I did not tell him to do that, it was a misunderstanding." Bobby said to Lori as she scolded him.
"Lincoln, you are too young to be going this fast." Bobby said. "I'm so proud of you." He whispered.
"Bro if she suggests stuff like again let her down easy." he added "Go for it." he whispered again.
"And next time things escalate with a girl, tell your family so you'll know what to do." Bobby explained. "Lie to them." he whispered.
Bobby earned an amused smirk from Lincoln and a scowl from Lori, one might mistake them for parents and their son.
"I need to have a little talk with my little brother, maybe it's time you head home boo boo bear." Lori said, grinding her teeth showing her anger.
"Uhh sure babe no problem, i'm gone, catch you guys later." Bobby said as he walked out the door not wanting to upset Lori more.
"At least someone's happy I got a girlfriend." Lincoln said.
"GIRLFRIEND." Lori said shocked. "Lincoln, you're eleven, you literally can not go out with an emo girl two years older."
"Why not." Lincoln asked.
"Well for one she's a terrible influence on you." Lori said.
"What no she's not." Lincoln said.
"Lincoln, think about it, ever since you started hanging out with her you've been dressing differently, you haven't read a single comic in weeks and on top of that you're sneaking out and literally talking back to your family." Lori said.
"What is it you want Lori?" Lincoln asked.
"It's not just me, the whole Family wants wants you to be your old self again." Lori said.
"Why so i'd be easier to push me around, make fun of me, call me names." Lincoln said. "This isn't about Maggie being an emo or too old for me, you just don't like that you can't push me around or make fun of me, you just don't like that i'm standing up for myself."
"What Lincoln, that's not true." Lori said.
"Yes it is Lori you just don't like Maggie cause she taught me I don't have to take your crap." Lincoln said. "So you should just back off because the old Lincoln you girls like to walk all over is dead." Lincoln said before going up the stairs and slamming his door.
Lori looked down at the floor in sadness and defeat on the verge of tears.
