  1. It’s been around 2 months since it started, but it felt like an eternity.
  2. He doesn’t really know why, but suddenly, the majority of his sisters seemed to be against him, one way or another.
  3. Barely realizing at the beginning, it quickly started to be more noticeable.
  4. The way they acted towards him, or how they treated him drastically changed.
  5. The loving sisters he always knew were gone for some reason.
  6. Clyde was on a trip with his dads, so he couldn’t talk with his friend about what was bothering him, and he didn’t want Ronnie Anne to know how the situation was. He was effectively facing this alone.
  7. Lincoln couldn’t remember if he has done something to upset them, but it didn't matter.
  8. The only thing that matters is how it can be like it was before… easier to say than to do.
  9.  
  10. -“*sigh* Come on, just tonight…”
  11. He said to himself, with sadness in his voice, remembering how the behavior of her sister slowly transformed.
  12.  
  13. Lori started screaming more and more often, and usually, he was the reason she was screaming, because anything he did, annoyed her. She was so angered once that tried to convince Bobby to make Ronnie break up with him, or at least he thought that was the reason. But fortunately, Lori failed…even so, it feels like he always has her gaze on his back.
  14. On the other side, Leni just plainly ignored her brother. She could be happily talking but if she saw him, she stopped instantly, and looked to another place, always trying to leave the room where Lincoln was. She hasn’t talked to him directly in a month.
  15. Luna stopped using her british accent around Lincoln and also stopped asking the boy about her songs, saying something like:”What can YOU know about music?”. Lincoln always wanted to help her however he could but seems he has been a nuisance, and now she also ignores him. At least Luna doesn’t leave the room where her brother is.
  16. Something similar happened with Lucy. She kept asking the white-haired boy his opinion only about poems telling stories about fratricide. Lincoln didn’t know the meaning of that word until he looked it up. And when he confronted his sister about why was she writing about things like that, the goth just pushed him away and left.
  17. Luan’s jokes became…crueler? All her puns were to insult him, or at least, he felt them that way, and her pranks became ruthless and dangerous, always followed by a HONK!...that noise, that horn, started to frighten Lincoln.
  18. He thought Lynn was different because she acted like always. Ironic. But he quickly realized that the way she “played” with him was way more violent, much more one-sided, and recently she has started to question his...masculinity. She wasn’t different at all.
  19. And finally the twins. Lana simply let her pets get loose in his room or over his things or getting everything dirty and make Lincoln clean it, with the help of Lola, who threatened the boy to tell mom and dad things he hasn’t done or said, but they would believe her.
  20. And speaking of Lola, she just throws away his food whenever she can, saying something along the lines ”this is too good for you”, and calling him things like scum, trash or her favourite: slave, making him run errands and doing all kind of jobs, only to be met by an ungrateful gaze.
  21.  
  22. They tone it down when Mom and Dad are home, but it doesn’t stop them, it’s like if it was their mission, like if they had to do it.
  23. However, Lisa and Lily didn't change “guess because Lily is too young, and Lisa too busy to really care” he thought to himself.
  24. He was making time, hoping his parents would forget about him that night, but probably wasn’t going to work.
  25.  
  26. -“Lincoln sweetie, come down”, said Mrs.Loud.
  27.  
  28. -“Heh, I knew it.” he said, with a desolate tone.
  29.  
  30. As Lincoln left his room, he saw Lisa (and Lily)’s room open.
  31.  
  32. -“Aren’t they down with the others?” He thought while getting closer to the room.
  33.  
  34. He only saw Lisa in front of a screen, looking self-absorbed.
  35.  
  36. -“Hey, uh, Lisa, aren’t you, eh…going to dinner?”.
  37. The four years old turned around.
  38.  
  39. -“I got dishtracted, thanksh for reminding me, brother”, as she left the room.
  40.  
  41. -“You are…welcome?” what was on the screen captured Lincoln’s eyes for some reason.
  42. -E.N:FRV-08: Results:_
  43.  
  44. -“Weird… must be a new experiment”, thought to himself.
  45.  
  46. As he was going down the stairs, he remembered what was waiting for him.
  47.  
  48. -“...Let's cope with this quickly”.
  49.  
  50. For whatever reason, everyone was dinning together, so the table was a bit more crowded, but Lincoln managed to find a spot to sit.
  51. BANG!
  52. Something exploded under Lincoln’s seat, scared, he looked down to see some kind of firecracker, but the thing that really alarmed Lincoln wasn’t that noise, nor the explosion, it was the honk that followed the prank.
  53.  
  54. -“Luan!That wasn’t funny!” said Rita while Lynn Sr. was looking silently.
  55.  
  56. -“It…It’s okay, mom, let’s just have a peaceful dinner, hahaha…”, he was shaking, but he wanted to do this fast.
  57.  
  58. Every single plate had something different on it, in Lincoln’s there was some salad and a piece of meat.
  59.  
  60. -“Mom, can you pass me the sauce?” asked Lincoln
  61. But unfortunately for him, it was on Lynn’s hands
  62.  
  63. -“Catch!” she said, throwing it at full force.
  64. The noise it made when hitting Lincoln’s head could be heard all around the house, and it made him fall from his chair.
  65.  
  66. -“Ooouuch…”
  67.  
  68. –“Come on, are you going to cry like a baby? Bahahaha” said Lynn laughing.
  69.  
  70. Lincoln got up, sniffing, eyes locked on the floor.”I’m not really hungry…” he babbled while leaving the dining room. Usually, something like that won’t bother him. But after being mistreated continuously for weeks, a simple thing could make him break down.
  71.  
  72. -“Meh, he should've been careful.” said Lori.
  73.  
  74. -“Can I give his food to Charles?” asked Lana to her parents.
  75.  
  76. -“Alone with his sorrows, I only feel envy.” said Lucy.
  77.  
  78. -“Come on Linc, I thought it was ‘saucy’.” helplessly joked Luan about what just happened.
  79.  
  80. -“Hey, he can leave the table when he wants? That’s impolite!” Screamed Lana.
  81.  
  82. -“Shut up…” added Luna, with a low voice.
  83.  
  84. The only ones who didn’t say a word were Lisa, Leni and Lynn, the last one because was still laughing.
  85. The sisters were chattering too loud (heh) to hear how Lynn Sr. said to his wife to take Lily to her room.
  86. When Rita was out of the dining room, the patriarch of the Loud family smacked his hand on the table, making all the sisters go silent.
  87.  
  88. -“WHICH OF YOU IS THE ONE WHO’S GONNA TELL ME WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE?” he demanded.
  89.  
  90.  
  91. At the second floor. Rita left Lily in her room. She was oblivious to what was happening with her family. Sweet innocence.
  92. Before the mother reached the stairs, she heard muffled sobs. The point of origin? Her son’s room.
  93. She reached the doorknob and opened the door, only to see Lincoln with his head shoved into his pillow.
  94.  
  95. -“Please…leave me alone”
  96.  
  97. -“Linc, sweetie, your father is talking to your sisters right now about what happened and-”
  98.  
  99. -“I did something wrong?” he interrupted his mother, concern in his voice.
  100.  
  101. -“No, no, I’m sure your sisters got something wrong, and they have no real reason to treat you like how they’ve been doing”.
  102.  
  103. -“I…I don’t want them to hate me…”
  104.  
  105. -“Don’t say that Linc, they don’t hate you, I promise. Your father and I will find what’s happening”.
  106. Lincoln forced a smile at the words of his mother.
  107.  
  108. “Thank you…”.
  109.  
  110. -“Just rest for a bit.” she said before leaving the room.
  111. Shortly after Mrs.Loud left the room, Lincoln did too.He went to the bathroom to brush his teeth and washing his face before going to sleep.
  112. Leaving the bathroom, he heard a giggle, coming from Lily and Lisa’s room.
  113. He took a peek and saw Lily playing with a rattle.
  114.  
  115. -“Hey Lily, want to make me some company?”.
  116. He lifted the baby and was met with a kiss on the cheek, followed by more giggles.
  117.  
  118. -“Poo poo”
  119.  
  120. -“I’ll take that as a yes” the boy smiled.
  121.  
  122. Meanwhile, in the dining room, the silence was deafening.
  123.  
  124. -“And suddenly all of you forgot how to talk…” said the father of the family.
  125.  
  126. None of the sisters dared to speak, they were frozen. It was a rare sight, Mr.Loud was beyond angry. He was enraged.
  127. Some of the sisters were witnessing this for the first time in their lives.
  128.  
  129. -“Dad, you are overreacting a bit”. Lori was brave enough to open her mouth, but it only made things worse.
  130.  
  131. -“Do you think I didn’t see what have you been doing to your own brother? Treating him like some kind of rag?”.
  132.  
  133. Again, silence.
  134.  
  135. -“At the beginning I thought that something went out of hand or you just had a fight with Lincoln, but this has gone too far. I was hoping for you to patch up without my interference, but seems I put my expectations too high. First of all, I want all of you to apologize to your brother, and you are all grounded until he tells me that ALL of you have given him a sincere apology. Did I make myself clear?”.
  136.  
  137. -“Yes.” Was answered in unison.
  138.  
  139. -“And I don’t need to say that all of you stop acting like you’ve been doing this 2 months. Do I?”
  140.  
  141. -“No”
  142.  
  143. -“Ok, now everyone to their rooms. And don't think it's over. I can't think clearly now.”
  144.  
  145. The nine sisters went upstairs, only to meet the disappointed eyes of their mother.After everyone was one the second floor, she went to talk with her husband.
  146.  
  147. -“Something is weird.” said Mr.Loud “why would they start doing that from one day to another?”
  148.  
  149. -“I hope is nothing serious, our children know what’s best for them, they will settle whatever is happening”.
  150.  
  151. -“You are right. For the moment, let’s think about what we do tomorrow. ”
  152.  
  153. Back in Lincoln’s room, the boy was playing with his younger sister.
  154.  
  155. -“Guess you are the only one who really wants me around…”
  156.  
  157. -“Prrbrt”, the baby was a bit distracted playing with Bun-bun, but didn’t look away from the boy, like she felt something was wrong with her brother.
  158.  
  159. -“Well, time to go to sleep”.
  160. But before Lincoln could grab Lily, he heard steps coming upstairs. All the remaining sisters were going to their rooms, at least, that’s what he thought.
  161. He didn’t dare to open the door, but he could hear some angry stomping, and at least one of them was crying.
  162. All of them entered Lisa’s room.
  163.  
  164. -“I guess sleep time would have to wait.” said the white-haired boy, avoiding getting closer to that place.
  165. He could hear the sisters talking, but he couldn’t decipher about what.
  166. Inside Lily and Lisa’s room.
  167.  
  168. -“It’s not working…” said Lucy.
  169.  
  170. -“I told you since the beginning” pointed Luna.
  171. She was trying to reassure Leni, who could only cry.
  172.  
  173. -“We have taken it too far…” the depressed voice of Luan reflected how most of them felt.
  174.  
  175. -“Well, I didn’t shay it wash going to work, I shaid it could work…”
  176.  
  177. -Flashback-
  178.  
  179. 2 months ago, what was deemed to be another boring day, took a strange turn when a girl in the Loud house began to ramble in some odd things she noticed. She was having a good season of texting in the living room, completely at peace because of the silence of her siblings. Something unusual there. But at the moment her brother stepped inside the house, a flock of sisters were over him almost instantly.
  180.  
  181. -“Lincoln, com you gotta see what I found at-” Lana was interrupted by Leni.
  182.  
  183. -“No, Lincoln is going to try the new shirt made for him.”
  184.  
  185. All the demands were like that, wanting the boy to accompany them.
  186. Lori has started to see the behavior in some of her sisters, and obviously, it had something to do with their only brother. She went on her way to her room. She needed tranquility to think about it.
  187. Since he started dating Bobby’s sister a few weeks ago, whenever he is at home, he always has at least one of them by his side, regardless what he is doing. ALL the time.
  188.  
  189. -“They should let him some space…” she said to herself.
  190.  
  191. -“Space for what?” Lori jumped at the words of the goth girl.
  192.  
  193. -“We told you literally 1000 times to not do that!”
  194.  
  195. -“Sorry. And my question has been left unanswered”
  196. The little girl was looking at her older sister in the eyes. Well, at least it seemed so.
  197.  
  198. -“*Sigh* It’s only that all of you've been a little bit too much over Lincoln these last days.”
  199.  
  200. -“Lately he’s at home less and less time. I don’t see any wrong in wanting to spend time with your brother."
  201. Lori closed her eyes at Lucy's affirmation.
  202.  
  203. “I guess you are…right?”. Lucy had disappeared when she opened them again.
  204.  
  205. -“We love our brother, and that’s normal… ” Lori stopped talking.
  206. Some realization started to flow in her thoughts.
  207.  
  208. -“No, I’m sure all of them are just being a bit over-attached to him, nothing more. They aren’t making that mistake… Nothing more…”
  209. Lori started to get nervous, maybe she discovered something that was hidden in plain sight, something wrong. She knew too well about it.
  210.  
  211. -“I must talk to all of them about this.”
  212.  
  213. -“About what exchactly you want to talk with ush?”
  214. Lisa asked from the end of the hall as she was carrying some stuff to her room.
  215.  
  216. -“Oh, just something about Linc, I’m sure I’m just overthinking but I need to make sure that…”
  217.  
  218. -“Make shure any of the girlsh on the houshe hash shome romantic feelingsh towardsh him?”
  219. Lori eyes opened wide. If Lisa had reached that conclusion, the chances that it was true got higher.
  220.  
  221. -“What do you know about that?” Lori asked, flustered.
  222.  
  223. -“I realished that shortly after that mexican girl shtarted going out with Lincoln, all of you have changed your action pattern.”
  224. She paused and left on the ground of her room what she was carrying.
  225.  
  226. -“Every shingle one of you”.
  227.  
  228. Those words hit Lori hard, reminding her of something she thought she overcame long ago. She was the eldest, the role model, and she had a boyfriend, who was the brother of the girl that somehow, unleashed this.
  229. Even so, she couldn’t deny that there was something inside her, something she perceived as wrong. God’s sake, he was only eleven, he was so small, so defenseless, so cute…
  230. She loathed herself for what was crossing her mind.
  231.  
  232. -“Lisa, tell everyone but Lincoln to come to my room, ASAP!”
  233. She left before the little genius could say anything.
  234.  
  235. -“Mmmmh, thish may be wrong, but I could try if that theory worksh…”
  236. Once they all were gathered.
  237.  
  238. -“Why did you call us? I’ve got to practice” said the rocker girl
  239.  
  240. -“Yeah, we all have things to do” added her roommate.
  241.  
  242. -“This better be settled fast, I’m taking Lincoln to the football(or soccer. Whatever) field. I have to train too”
  243.  
  244. -“I don’t think so, I want Linc to be my butler in my game of house! ” Lola seemed furious
  245.  
  246. -“But I was going to ask him to play with…” the other twin was interrupted by Lori.
  247.  
  248. -“That’s why we are all here!”
  249.  
  250. -“We are here because we spend time with Lincy?” Leni asked with confusion in her face.
  251.  
  252. -“If it was only that, then we wouldn’t have a problem, but this is serious. Tell me what do you think of him, please”
  253. The sisters were weirded out by the question, but they answered, one by one, except Lisa, who was just observing the situation while holding Lily.
  254.  
  255. -“He is an unstoppable one-man crowd, baby”.
  256.  
  257. -“The perfect target for my pranks, he always falls for them, hahaha”.
  258.  
  259. -“He’s so fun, he isn’t afraid of getting dirty, like others”
  260. -“Well, at least he doesn’t behave like a beast all the time”
  261. The twins started to argue, while the other sisters continued.
  262.  
  263. -“He is so sweet and caring, and helps us with everything he can and…”
  264. Seems that Leni could go on for hours if Lucy hadn’t interrupted her.
  265.  
  266. -“He always listens to us, he is always there…”
  267.  
  268. -“He puts up his best, even when he knows he can’t beat me, hahaha. He never gives up!”
  269. When all of them answered, Lori shooted another question.
  270.  
  271. -“And what do you think of him dating Ronnie Anne…?”
  272. Silence.
  273.  
  274. -“Please, answer.”
  275. Only Luna said something
  276.  
  277. -“That’s a strange thing to ask, Lori. It’s what makes our bro happy, no? And I’m pretty sure everyone here wants to see him happy. For everything he does for us, because we love him as much as he loves us. Am I right?”
  278.  
  279. -“Yes.” Lori answered, “we love him, as a BROTHER, and nothing more, you understand?”
  280. She was met with gazes filled with disbelief at the question. The twins stopped arguing to ask at the same time.
  281.  
  282. -“What do you mean?”.
  283.  
  284. -“Do all of you really see him as a brother, and nothing more?”
  285. She expected, she wished for an answer which proved her wrong, but it never came. All the sisters but Lisa were looking at the floor.
  286.  
  287. -“H-hey, you’re just o-overthinking, there’s no way…” Luna said
  288. All of them were too stunned to think properly
  289. .
  290. -“Uuuh, I think….” said Luan, before going to her room.
  291. She returned with some tapes, they were from recent days. Lincoln was in all of them, always with one or more sisters. But the boy was oblivious at how they looked at him, how annoyed they seemed when he was texting to her not-so-secret girlfriend in front of them, or how happy they seemed whenever he was with any of them. Everything was recorded and there was no point in denying it.
  292. The sisters looked at each other. If it was really like this, what would people, their friends, Mom and Dad think if they knew? This was a dead end, they knew the consequences their feelings may have, but there’s nothing they could do, or at least, any of them could think of anything.
  293.  
  294. -“If all of you think thoshe feelingsh shouldn’t be there, we could try shomething” spoke Lisa
  295. The first sentence she said since the beginning of this little “talk”.
  296.  
  297. -“Whenever you try something, it ends with explosions or someone injured. Can’t we just ignore them?” said Luan
  298.  
  299. -“That won’t do, we have to get rid of them, for the greater good of the family. What do you have in mind?” Lori asked Lisa.
  300.  
  301. -“Well, shome renowned pshycollogishtsh have the theory that you can change the way you feel or the way you react towardsh shomething or shomeone by shelf-conditioning and shelf-shuggestion.”
  302. Her words were met by deadpan faces.
  303.  
  304. -“In shimpler wordsh, maybe if you shtart treating brother Lincoln badly, your brain will shtart thinking of him the opposhite way it doesh now.”
  305.  
  306. -“Wait a sec, are you telling us to bully Lincoln?” Luna was not pleased with the plan of the young girl.
  307.  
  308. -“Congratulationsh, you found a shimpler way to shay it”.
  309.  
  310. -“But, but, how can you even think about that, he hasn’t done anything to be treated like that. And I can’t do any harm to him.”
  311. Leni’s words were what every sister was thinking. But but the subject was delicate. What was better? Carrying on some feelings that would end up hurting everyone, or treating the only person who was always there for them like rubbish?
  312.  
  313. -“If any of you don’t feel like treating bad Lincoln, you could jusht ignore him”.
  314.  
  315. -“And are you sure this will relieve the darkness in our hearts, and won’t bring even more despair?”
  316.  
  317. -“If I undershtood your queshtion correctly…I’m not shure…”
  318. Lisa was somehow insecure about this too, she didn’t want to see her brother suffer, but she knew the consequences of what was happening could be disastrous.
  319. -“Pshicollogy ishn’t my best shubject, sho I can’t foreshee what may happen, but a deshperate shituation needs a deshperate sholution”.
  320.  
  321. -“We…are going to try it” interceded the eldest sister.
  322.  
  323. -“WHAT?” said 7 voices
  324.  
  325. -“The one who’s going to end up worse with all of this is Lincoln. Do we REALLY have to?” asked Luna.
  326. Doubt was in Lori’s mind, she knew any of them wanted this.
  327.  
  328. “It has to be done, and pray it works as fast as possible”
  329.  
  330. -“But couldn’t we just end up hating Linc if it works too well?” the brash twin asked.
  331.  
  332. -“It doeshn’t work that way…I think…I’ll shee if ish one of the posshible reshultsh”.
  333.  
  334. -“Nonsense, any of us will end up hating our brother, keep in mind why are we doing this, so we can be a normal family, and no some kind of freaks”.
  335. Those words were heavy, but the sisters knew the truth beneath them.
  336.  
  337. "Now everyone to their rooms, tomorrow will be the start of some miserable days…”
  338. -End of flashback-
  339.  
  340. -“This all started with that stupid theory of yours.”.
  341. –“Yeah, and now we are all grounded...but I must say the whole thing with Lincoln wasn't that bad...”
  342. -"IT WAS BAD!"
  343. The twins were not pleased, but one more than the other.
  344.  
  345. -“I see fear in Lincoln’s face whenever I’m near, I don’t want to keep up with this” added Luan.
  346. She looked tired, faking laughs whenever she hurt her brother wasn’t doing good on her.
  347.  
  348. -“Well, at least he will man up a bit”.
  349. Lynn seemed more into the plan than her sisters.
  350.  
  351. -“You are not helping, Lynn. Mom and Dad are angry, and we are grounded until we all apologize to Lincoln. Those are the only thing that we got of all of this so far. I think it's time to cut it out.”
  352.  
  353. -“We are hurting and getting hurt without a goal. Pointless”
  354. Luna and Lucy didn’t want to continue, and judging Leni’s tears, she was with them.
  355.  
  356. -“No, NO! Don’t you understand? It's not THAT easy! He is our BROTHER!”
  357. Lori didn’t accept that her sisters were giving up
  358. ”Keep it up until we think of another way, just…”.
  359.  
  360. -“NO!, I can’t keep just ignoring him!” babbled Leni as she had calmed down a little.
  361.  
  362. -“You know what? NO!. You know it’s wrong and you just, AAAGH!” Lori failed to express how she felt. “Sigh, let’s go to sleep, I’ll…I’ll think something, just…just don’t do anything stupid.”
  363.  
  364. -“I think it would be better to show our repentance to Lincoln if we don’t want to stay grounded forever” Lucy pointe the obvious.
  365.  
  366. -“You are correct, but it would be better to wait for the proper moment. Keep in mind you have been “torturing” him for shome weeks now, he may not take well all of ush appearing in his room shaying "shorry Lincoln!" like nothing happened”
  367.  
  368. The sisters agreed, some to more extent than others, as some of them (specifically Leni and Lucy) wanted to take the burden off as soon as possible, but they knew Lisa was right, waiting a little would be for the better.
  369. After that, everyone went to her room.
  370. Lincoln could hear some weak weeping accompanying the footsteps as everyone abandoned Lisa’s room. When he was sure no one was around, prepared to take Lily to her room.
  371.  
  372. -“Now for sure, it’s…”
  373. The baby had already fallen asleep on his arms. She looked so peaceful.
  374. The boy went to her baby sister room and placed her in her craddle. Lisa was also in the room, she was typing something on her computer.
  375.  
  376. -“…uh, what was…?”
  377.  
  378. -“We were talking about our punishment, the thingsh that have happened this last weeksh, and how we can short out them” her eyes glued to the screen.
  379.  
  380. -“Dad grounded you? YOU?. You and Lily were the only ones who haven’t done anything to me”
  381.  
  382. -“I have done more than you think, brother. I’ll tell you one thing, we have to ask for your forgivenessh in order to shtop our punishment, even if we don’t know yet what kind of punishment ish”
  383.  
  384. -“Great, they will hate me even more. I thought it was impossible”
  385. Lisa faced her brother for the first time since he entered the room.
  386.  
  387. -“Lincoln, any of them hates you. It’sh far more difficult to comprehend than you think. You will dishcover that shooner or later.”
  388.  
  389. -“What? What do you mean?”
  390.  
  391. -“Nothing you can undershatnd. Not yet. And now pleashe, leave the room, I need shome resht”.
  392. While Lincoln was leaving Lisa said two words, two words he couldn't hear.
  393.  
  394. -“I’m shorry…”.
  395. She slammed the door and turned around to look at the screen.
  396. ‘E.N:FRV-08: Results: After all these days, my first impression is_’
  397.  
  398. -“…but I need more data.”
  399.  
  400. Lincoln was in the hallway and a door slam was heard behind him. Everything was dark, but he could see (barely) all the doors of his sisters' rooms.
  401.  
  402. -“They don’t hate me? They have proven otherwise”.
  403. A few tears dropped to the ground, but he quickly brushed his face with his sleeve. It’s been a long day. He wanted to sleep.
  404.  
  405. Surrounded by darkness, Lincoln was looking at the ceiling.
  406. He was having a hard time trying to find a way to find the slumber he was longing for. What kept him up was the words of her younger sister.
  407.  
  408. -“Does she think a person can feign hating someone that easily? You can’t fake what you feel.”
  409.  
  410. -“It’s easier than you might think”.
  411.  
  412. -“Mmmmmmh” Lincoln covered his mouth with his hands.
  413. He didn’t want to wake up anyone with his screams as the voice of his goth sister startled him. After a few seconds, he could visualize her figure, standing on his bed.
  414.  
  415. -“It’s far past midnight. What are you doing awake? And more important, what are you doing in my room?”
  416.  
  417. -“I couldn’t sleep. Can I stay with you for a bit?” she bluntly responded.
  418.  
  419. -“So you can kill me in my sleep?”
  420. In this two months, and thanks to Lucy’s poems, Lincoln has discovered more than 50 ways to end a human life. He didn’t know that you could do something like that in such “original” ways.
  421.  
  422. -“...I never wanted to do such a thing. Sometimes poetry doesn’t reflect the true feelings of the individual writing it.”
  423. Her voice's tone changed, it seemed sadder.
  424. Lincoln narrowed his eyes, confused by his sister's words.
  425.  
  426. -“If you don’t feel it, then why would you write abouUUUGGH...”
  427. His words were cut short when he felt his sister sitting on his stomach. She wasn't really heavy but it caught him by surprise.
  428.  
  429. -“Uuuh, what are you doing?”
  430.  
  431. -“Some affections are forbidden, and we lie to ourselves in order to avoid our inner desires, leading to an empty life, without the ability to feel happiness.”
  432.  
  433. -“Lucy, what the hell are you talking about?”
  434.  
  435. With a quick movement, she embraced her brother. Lincoln was still.
  436. He didn't know how to react, afraid of what she could do. Their last interactions weren't precisely friendly, so he let the goth snuggle against him for a bit. After some minutes, she finally did something.
  437.  
  438. “I am sorry, Lincoln.” She whispered, tightening her grip. Her voice was quivering, something odd in her as she always spoke in the same tone.
  439. Her eyes showed true grief and repentance. He was surprised he could see them.
  440. He was processing what was happening, but he couldn’t find any logical answer.
  441. He had the thought of his sisters despising him engraved so deep on his brain that nothing was coming out of his mouth.
  442.  
  443. -“It’s…ok.”
  444. Those were the only words that he was able to mutter. Seemed like a half-hearted response, but he really meant it.
  445. He wasn’t spiteful. He wasn’t vengeful. It wasn’t in his nature. He could forgive anyone, despite the pain that person caused to him. And Lucy knew it.
  446.  
  447. -“*Sniff* I’m sorry…” the girl repeated.
  448.  
  449. -“...I see it, but can you loosen the hug? I can’t breathe well.”
  450. She released her brother, only to put her hands on his shoulders.
  451.  
  452. -“Lucy? What…” there was nothing more he could say before his lips were fused with Lucy’s ones.
  453. Lincoln was dumbfounded. He wasn’t able to think straight. It was so sudden that it took him a few moments to comprehend what was happening. When he was sure this wasn’t some twisted dream, he tried to speak.
  454. Emphasis on 'tried' as his mouth was busy with another thing.
  455. Lucy moved her head back a bit, giving some space to the boy.
  456.  
  457. -“Seems that you want to tell me something” she smirked.
  458.  
  459. -“LUCY! DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE DONE?” angrily whispered Lincoln.
  460.  
  461. -“What happens, you didn’t like it?”
  462. She said with a playful tone, unusual on her.
  463.  
  464. He could lie, or he could tell the truth, it was useless. Lucy would know what he was thinking even if he put up his best "performance".
  465. He wanted to feel some affection from part of his sisters after everything that happened, but he didn’t expect that kind of affection.
  466.  
  467. -“Look, Lucy. I don’t know what you are thinking. I’m.... uuuuuuh...glad that at least you don’t hate me anymore, but this is kind of wrong.”
  468.  
  469. -“…I never hated you, and I must prove it. Not only to you, also to me”.
  470. Grief was no longer in her eyes. They looked lively, more than ever.
  471.  
  472. -“…”
  473. Lincoln didn’t know what to do. He could get out of his position easily. But he was still so hurt emotionally, that the show of affection drained completely his strength.
  474. After a few seconds of both looking at each other eyes, it was clear who was the one in control of the situation.
  475.  
  476. -“There are no more obstacles hindering my way...” she said as she guided her brother’s hand down her pants.
  477. The touch of skin and sweat confirmed it, those pants were the only thing she was wearing.
  478.  
  479. -“Lucy…” one last attempt to put some sense in the situation.
  480. It was meaningless, as Lucy rose her body to get rid of her pants and shirt, he felt something else rising, trying to be free from a fabric prison.
  481. The goth girl saw the face of the white-haired boy. It was crimson red.
  482. Lucy, by that reaction, though he also wanted it, but was unable to say it. Stupid sense of morality. But that sense was slowly dripping away.
  483. Lucy had enough of seeing her brother like that, so she made him a favor, and liberated his member. Lincoln would surely “appreciate” it. She wasted no time and started rubbing his log against her crotch.
  484. His size wasn’t something a kid the age of Lincoln normally had. Lucy thought that it may seem bigger because of her size, but she was wrong. The kid was well endowed.
  485.  
  486. -“How it is...?”
  487.  
  488. -“I don’t know…” the trembling in his voice proved that he really did know how it was. It was good. It was better than it should. All this quaint situation.
  489.  
  490. -“There is no need to lie, brother. I know you will enjoy IT!” she elevated a little her voice, as she put her brother inside her.
  491. With a wet sound, the deed was done. Lincoln felt a bit of disgust mixed with an overwhelming feeling of pleasure.
  492. She placed her hands on his shoulders again and started to move.
  493. A single tear fell from Lucy’s eyes.
  494. Maybe she wasn’t completely ready for this. Maybe she didn’t care.
  495. She moved her tiny body up and down, time after time for some minutes before uniting her lips with Lincoln’s again.
  496. Her hands squeezed Lincoln's shoulders everytime he kissed her insides with each thrust.
  497. Lincoln was not able to control his movements anymore.
  498. He sped up and Lucy reciprocated. Every time his member rubbed against her inner walls, she let out louder moans. She had troubles keeping them down, as she was self-absorbed in pleasure.
  499. After some minutes thrusting, both felt near climax.
  500. The creaking of the bed and the wet sound as their bodies collided time after time flooded the room. The ending was near.
  501.  
  502. -“Lucy!” he said one last time before shooting inside his little sister.
  503.  
  504. She was ecstatic. Words could not describe what she was feeling.
  505. A bunch of things invaded Lucy’s mind while finishing.
  506. How she longed for this. How wrong she felt when she was mistreating her caring brother. How good it was knowing she was the first, HIS first. And lastly, Lincoln’s face while he was connected to her.
  507. She would never forget any of those things.
  508. Lucy dismounted and laid down on Lincoln’s side. Both siblings were looking at the ceiling as time was slowly passing by. What was going to happen now?
  509. She rested her head on brother’s chest, feeling it’s warmness.
  510.  
  511. -“I love you, Lincoln...”
  512. She pressed against him.
  513.  
  514. - “Lucy...you know th-?”
  515. He was left hanging. Lucy fell asleep on him before he could answer. He exhaled and drew a small smile.
  516.  
  517. -“...Me too”
  518. He kissed her forehead before drifting to sleep.
  519.  
  520. The sun shined through Lincoln’s room window. As soon his eyes were open, everything that happened last night flowered in his mind.
  521.  
  522. -“Damn it...Lucy?”
  523. Silence. A silence that proved she wasn’t in his room anymore.
  524.  
  525. “Was it just a dream?” he wondered.
  526. But a wet stain on his bed and a sweet flavor on his lips confirmed that it wasn’t.
  527.  
  528. -“This is going to be troublesome, I'm already feeling it”
  529.  
  530. -“Lincoln, sweetie, are you awake?” Rita asked her son from the door's other side “May I come in?”
  531.  
  532. -“NO!”. Quick response.
  533. He noticed the smell, and how untidied everything was. His mother would get suspicious something happened there. He needed to clean everything before anyone could enter his room again.
  534.  
  535. -“Okay, Lincoln” she desisted.
  536. She had an idea of how her son might be feeling about what happened during dinner last night. Little she knew about was bothering the kid at the moment. It wasn’t even close.
  537.  
  538. -“If you are feeling right, do you want to accompany us?”
  539.  
  540. -“Wha…Where?”
  541.  
  542. -“*sigh *It was a surprise. Dad and I need to buy some things, so we were going to take you all to the mall, and after that, we were going somewhere to eat and spend some time in family. But after what happened last night, your father was hesitating to do it.
  543.  
  544. -“They are going out?” Lincoln thought. “I’ll like to stay, please, if it doesn’t bother you”.
  545.  
  546. -“Don’t worry, sweetie. I’ll let you some lunch prepared, you’ll only have to heat it.”
  547.  
  548. -“Thanks, mom.”
  549. Rita walked away from her son's room. In the way, she found Lori leaving her room. She had accused eye bags.
  550.  
  551. -“How’s your sister?”
  552.  
  553. -“How is she? How I am! She’s been weeping and sniffing all night and I couldn’t sleep. But she really doesn’t feel good. Even after I mentioned her the trip to the mall, she still doesn’t want to leave her bed.”
  554.  
  555. -“It’ll be better to let her stay. She could look over Linc.”
  556.  
  557. -“The twerp isn’t coming either? Hmpf. I’m sure he is the one who is going to look over Leni”.
  558.  
  559. -“Don’t be so rude! And go downstairs, everyone is waiting”.
  560. In the first floor, Lynn Sr. was still angry. To less extent, but angry.
  561.  
  562. -“And I don’t want to lose sight of any of you at any moment, okay?”
  563.  
  564. -“Yes...” Most of the sisters present answered.
  565.  
  566. -“Leni isn’t coming.” said the mother while descending the stairs.
  567.  
  568. -“Honey, you know I don’t want them doing whatever they want. They are grounded, remember?”
  569.  
  570. -“I know, but she wasn’t feeling well. Leni doesn’t want to come to the shopping mall. You know how odd is that? I think it's better this way”.
  571.  
  572. -“…Guess you are right... Ok, listen girls, on vanzilla I’ll tell you what you can and can’t do while you are grounded. It was going to be a nice trip and it's been reduced to...this.”
  573. While mumbling more things, he left the house before the rest of the family to make sure the vehicle was working properly.
  574. The sisters already had everything they needed, so they were waiting, thinking about their things, with an upset face. Except one.
  575. Lucy was humming something with a grin on her face.
  576.  
  577. -“I always thought you hated everything happiness related.” Luan said.
  578.  
  579. -“There are moments where joy widely overcomes sorrow.”
  580.  
  581. -“Girls, come here if you are ready” shouted Lynn Sr.
  582. The kids and the mother left the house, but before entering the car, Lynn asked something to Lucy.
  583.  
  584. -“That face you are making has something to do with you returning to our room in the middle of the night?”
  585. Lucy smile just got wider, as she ignored the question.
  586.  
  587. Vanzilla engine ignited on the first try.
  588.  
  589. It’s been a while since Lincoln heard his family leave, so it was time to get the job done. He put his bed sheets and blanket in the washing machine and flooded his room with air freshener.
  590.  
  591. -“This will do...I hope”
  592. Lincoln’s stomach started to roar as soon as he ended the sentence. He didn’t have any dinner nor breakfast and was almost eating time. He needed to something to fill the emptiness he felt in his stomach.
  593.  
  594. -“Welp, let’s see what mom has left.”
  595. He was surprised. In the kitchen, there were two plates. Was there anyone else at home? When he left his room, every door was open except Lori and Leni’s room one. He quickly deduced that it was one of the two.
  596. What was better? Continuous yelling or complete disregard?
  597.  
  598. -“Whatever, I’m hungry. I’ll deal with it when she wakes up”.
  599.  
  600. In the kitchen, he looked the two plates, they had the same content. He picked one and turned around. With a graceful movement, he knocked down the other one to the ground.
  601.  
  602. -“Great. Uuuh, I guess there has to be something else to eat in the fridge…better pick up the pieces first.” He said, looking at the pieces of the dish lying on the floor.
  603. The sound of the broken ceramic made someone awake from her slumber. Leni didn’t leave her room immediately. She didn’t want anyone to see her like that. Red eyes, eyebags...The fashion diva has had better days.
  604. She put on some light makeup, and her green dress, but the signs of a bad night without sleep were pretty much still there, although less marked.
  605.  
  606. She went downstairs, rubbing her eyes with her forearm, thinking about what happened last night in Lisa’s room. She was one of the sisters who wanted to settle things with her brother as soon as possible.
  607.  
  608. -“I need to apologize, I haven’t been a good big sister *sniff* I’ll tell him when Lincoln returns from the…kitchen?”
  609. She stopped the monologue and peeked inside the kitchen. Lincoln was there, throwing something in the bin.
  610.  
  611. -“Phew. I think that was everything”
  612.  
  613. -“Lin...coln?”
  614. The boy slowly turned around
  615.  
  616. -“H-hi, Leni…Good day” That cleared the doubt of which sister was in the house. It was probably the best option. However, it was different from the last days. She was talking to him, by own will.
  617.  
  618. -“You...You didn’t go with the others?”
  619. Leni didn't know what to say. She wasn’t ready for confronting him so soon. But it was going to happen nonetheless.
  620.  
  621. -“N-no, mom let me stay. And you?”
  622.  
  623. -“I am not feeling well…”
  624. There were much more things in Leni’s head than people actually gave her credit for. But at the time, all of her thoughts were about how all her sisters and herself had been towards their brother. It was like her own guilt was stabbing her.
  625.  
  626. -“Well. You want to eat something?” Lincoln offered her a plate of food.
  627.  
  628. -“Fine, but first let me…Where is yours?”
  629.  
  630. -“I just messed up. Don’t worry, I’ll find something else.”
  631.  
  632. Always putting the others first. It only made worse how Leni was feeling. She felt another stab-like sensation.
  633. Her stomach was closing up, but she couldn’t refuse her brother’s offering, so she looked for a fork and started eating. Lincoln made a sandwich to palliate his hunger.
  634. Halfway eating, Leni asked him something.
  635.  
  636. -“Aren’t you mad? I’m getting the yummy food.”
  637.  
  638. -“Hey, this sandwich is MY masterpiece, you know? There’s no way I am mad with this in my hands.” Lincoln joked, so carefree.
  639. A normal person could’ve broken with only a fraction of what he was going through. Leni felt another one.
  640.  
  641. -“Besides, it's fine...It’s the first team we speak like this in over a month”
  642. And another one. Leni was unable to say a word.
  643.  
  644. -“...You are really quiet...Sorry Leni, I should've known I was bothering you. I'll...I'll leave."
  645. But Leni didn’t felt that way. She couldn’t handle it anymore. Her eyes were quickly filled with tears.
  646.  
  647. -“He-hey, I didn’t mean to make yo-UGH.” as his sister put him in a tight hug, lifting him off the ground and pushing his face against her chest. He wasn’t able to speak nor breathe.
  648.  
  649. -“IaMsoRryiAmSorRYIaMsOrrY!”
  650. It was the only thing Leni was able to babble, time after time.
  651. Lincoln managed to free his head and get some fresh air.
  652.  
  653. -“*Uuuff* Leni, I see you are sorry, but I need to breathe to continue living!”
  654.  
  655. -“…I’m sorry…” she muttered one last time before letting him on the floor again.
  656. Both went to the living room so Leni could calm. It didn’t take her too long thanks to the constant pampering of the boy. They chatted non-stop for a good half hour, and by chat I mean, Leni telling her younger brother all she couldn’t during those two damned months. Her face was beaming, and the only reason for that was Lincoln, and that silly smile she saw for the first time in weeks. The tears were no more. Leni had once again confidence in herself. It felt like she could take on anything, that failure wasn’t an option. On anything...
  657.  
  658. -“Well, It’s been pretty fun, don’t you think Leni?”
  659. She didn’t answer, her brain was mesmerized. Her lips were forming a small circle. She couldn’t look away from her brother. Lincoln found it a bit strange, but he didn't give it importance.
  660.  
  661. -“I’m going to clean the kitchen, do you need something else?”
  662.  
  663. -“Yes... Could you give me another hug?” Leni timidly asked.
  664. Lincoln could only smile at that innocent request. He did not hesitate in fulfilling his older sister her wish. He closed his eyes and embraced her waist, placing one side of his face against her stomach. While he was holding Leni, he felt something odd in his head. The tact of cloth. He let go his sister only to see a green dress touching the floor.
  665. Lincoln slowly started looking up, inspecting every single inch of her legs...her panties...her slim belly...the bra holding her beautiful breasts...her face...her smile...and finally, her eyes, gazing at him intensely.
  666. It was happening again.
  667.  
  668. -“Tell me, Lincy…Do you want another hug?” she asked softly.
  669. Lincoln could feel his own reaction, his own HARD reaction. He had to stop it while he could, or it would be "Lucy's situation" all over again. However, there was a difference with the night before. He didn’t feel completely weak. He had to redirect the situation before everything got even more tangled.
  670.  
  671. -“L-Leni, stop and think about what you are doing.”
  672.  
  673. -“They say I'm not a good thinker.” the girl said as she unhooked her bra.
  674. You can’t say Lincoln didn’t try, but the vision of Leni’s bosoms was enough to make anyone change his mind.
  675.  
  676. -“Lincy…” she took a step closer “you didn’t answer my question…”
  677. She carefully grabbed the sides of his head and approached him to her body. She was soft, her smell was hypnotizing. An indescribable sensation.
  678.  
  679. -“Linc...Your hair tickles. Come sit down.” She said between huffs. She guided the boy to the couch.
  680. He felt numb, it was too much to handle in so little time. Leni started undressing him. She took away the jeans, letting her see the baby-maker.
  681.  
  682. -“Leni…Stop” He couldn’t forget that they were blood-related, but it didn't matter last night, and it didn't matter now, as the touch of Leni was rendering that fact useless. Too late to turn back.
  683.  
  684. -“But I want to keep going...” she uttered as she dropped his undies.
  685. Leni met lil’ Lincoln, and it was a pleasure. She grabbed it and started to stroke it.
  686. When Leni was focused, her naivety disappeared. Or was the nature of the situation what was driving her? Who knows.
  687.  
  688. -“Le-Leni..." Lincoln finally gave in. "can you...Can you use your…”
  689.  
  690. -“Naughty...” Leni playfully interrupted her brother. She knew what he was going to request. She placed Lincoln’s dick between her breasts and started to stroke his member again.
  691. Lincoln moaned, the sensation made him go limp. And when Leni started to kiss the tip, he completely lost it. She continued for some minutes before stopping abruptly.
  692.  
  693. -“Whaaa?” That piece of linguistic beauty was the only thing Lincoln was able to say before realizing his sister standing in front of him, panties in hand.
  694.  
  695. -“It’s only fair if I get to feel good too, no?”
  696. Lincoln couldn’t agree more, but it was really safe? With Lucy that danger didn’t exist, but with her…
  697.  
  698. -“Leni, if we do it like this, you could get pr-”
  699.  
  700. -“Don’t worry, it's a safe day”
  701. Was it? Could he really trust Leni? It wasn’t a secret that she tends to forget things. How can he be sure about it? And how was Leni guessing everything he was going to say? Can it-
  702.  
  703. -“AaaAaaAhHHh!” His thoughts were interrupted by her sister sitting on his pole.
  704.  
  705. -“You were a bit distracted, so I helped myself. Do you care?”
  706. He absolutely didn’t care, but it was surprising. He never saw this side of Leni, accommodating and impatient.
  707. He quickly began to move his hips, getting more and more turned on with Leni’s moans. He was massaging her buttcheeks while doing his job. The difference between Lucy and Leni was obvious, but both of them felt great, but in different ways.
  708. He couldn't believe what he was thinking. He should be avoiding this, not enjoying it.
  709.  
  710. He bound his arms on her back and burying his face in her chest. She returned a hug, one completely different from the ones he gave to her before. She was embracing him with all her self, with everything she had. With everything she willingly was giving to her dear brother.
  711. She reached climax, and Lincoln soon followed her.
  712. If she wasn’t on her safe day there was going to be a problem, because he didn’t let a single drop outside his sister.
  713.  
  714. -“I am sorry, Lincoln.” she said, with a small thread of voice.
  715. She lifted his chin with her index finger and placed a small kiss on his lips.
  716.  
  717. -"I love you." she added, with a smile that could outshine the moon at night.
  718.  
  719. -“…I love you too, Leni.”
  720. He wasn't lying, he loved his sister. But everything got out of hand pretty quickly. Twice.
  721. They took some minutes to get back some energies again and get dressed. Fully clothed now, Leni gave Lincoln another peck in his mouth. The boy smiled a bit concerned.
  722.  
  723. -“Leni, I hate being a hassle, but we need to clean this.”
  724.  
  725. -“Oh, sure. Let’s just use the machine that washes things.”
  726.  
  727. -“I don't think we can use it to clean the living room...Uuuuuuh, you reminded me that I have to take out my bed sheets out of it”
  728.  
  729. -“Why are your bed sheets there?”
  730.  
  731. -“…It’s a long story”
  732.  
  733. -“I see... Okay!” Leni happily said.
  734. She approached the window and looked at the street.
  735.  
  736. “The others must be on their way back, right?”
  737.  
  738. -“Almost sure.”
  739. Lincoln thanked his usually negative luck that they didn’t appear while they were doing..."that".
  740.  
  741. -“Lincoln, the sky looks angry, do you think it’s going to rain?” She said, looking up.
  742. Lincoln looked out the window, grey clouds were almost above their house.
  743.  
  744. -“Probably. Now help me cleaning this, please.” Lincoln insisted.
  745.  
  746. It’s been a few hours since the rest of the family returned, and like if rain was waiting, it started to pour as soon as they entered the house.
  747. Almost all of the sisters went to their rooms upon arrival except Lynn and Lana. The first assaulted Lincoln with wrestling moves a few times since they arrived, mostly because dad banned ball games inside the house. She was careful enough to not let her parents watch her doing those maneuvers. Fortunately for Lincoln, she was watching TV now.
  748. On the other hand, Lana has been wandering up and down in the house, stopping here and there and reenabling her march. She wanted to go outside and play with the mud the rain was forming, but that would awake her father's wrath.
  749. Lincoln was helping his parents with the things they bought: new silverware and some furniture to replace the ones the siblings had broken.
  750. Lincoln was walking out to grab another box when he heard a yell.
  751.  
  752. -“HUUUUURRICANRANAAAAA!”
  753. No time to react. Fast as lightning, Lynn enveloped Lincoln's neck with her legs and dropped him into a wall. It hurt more than he was willing to admit.
  754.  
  755. -“Uuugh”, he groaned, attempting to stand up.
  756.  
  757. -“Come on, it wasn’t that much. Don’t be a sissy”
  758.  
  759. -“Weren’ t you watching whatever the heck you were watching?”
  760.  
  761. -“Yes, but they started the chitty-chat, so I’m making time for when the action starts again”
  762. Lincoln looked at the TV. In the screen, there were three heavy bearded guys, one with a sheep mask. It was weird. What the hell was his sister watching? Whatever.
  763.  
  764. -“Wasn’t Lana here with you a few minutes ago?”
  765.  
  766. -“You said so, 'was', but she disappeared.”
  767.  
  768. -“...I’ll keep helping dad”
  769.  
  770. -“Don’t worry sweetie, there isn’t much left, you can rest now.” said Rita carrying a box herself.
  771.  
  772. -“Heh, reading time I guess”
  773.  
  774. -“Uuuuh, reading, so exciting” Lynn mocked him, returning to the couch.
  775. Only Lincoln knows how much he wanted to retaliate, but that would probably backfire. He let it pass by and went to his room. He was so close to the door when he heard Lola calling his name that he regretted not being a little bit faster.
  776.  
  777. -“Lincoln!”
  778.  
  779. -“*Sigh* Ye-yes, Lola?”
  780.  
  781. -“Shut it, scum. Have you seen Lana? I have something for her to do and she’s nowhere to be found.”
  782.  
  783. -“Uh, no I think…”
  784.  
  785. -“Ugh, USELESS! Now who’s going to clean this- SLAM!”
  786. The sound the door made when Lola closed it made Lincoln’s eardrums to ache.
  787.  
  788. -"And dad grounded them? They are acting as always..." The boy said to himself.
  789.  
  790. At least, he avoided being forced to do some ungrateful work. Now in his room, Lincoln grabbed one issue of Ace Savvy, thinking about the difference on how some sisters treat him in comparison. At least, those last days. His face went crimson only from remembering it.
  791. It took him less than five minutes to find the perfect position. He wanted to be in his underwear, but due to the rain, the room was too chilly to be without clothes, and he didn’t want to catch a cold.
  792. The rain created a great ambientation for the activity he was doing, but from time to time, the raindrops distracted him. He looked outside the window to see if the rain was going to persist much more.
  793. Grey clouds expanded beyond the horizon, but that wasn’t what captured Lincoln’s attention, no.
  794. It was Lana.
  795. She was playing and running in the backyard, despite dad telling them to not leave the house without his permission.
  796. Lincoln hurried outside, not only because of what might happen if the father found out but because she could get sick by being overexposed to the rain. He cared about them regardless their actions.
  797. He reached the place in less than a minute.
  798.  
  799. -“Lana!” she stopped in her tracks. “I think it would be better if you go inside. It’s raining too much!”
  800. The girl hesitated on what to do. She knew what the consequences of being outside might be, and the fact that was Lincoln the one asking her to enter the house filled her with remorse. What could she do?
  801.  
  802. -“Catch me if you can!” she said, before throwing a ball of mud to Lincoln landing on his shirt.
  803.  
  804. -“Lanaaaa!” he began to chase her.
  805. Initially, he was serious, but as Lana was playfully avoiding Lincoln through the puddles, as they were rolling in the wet grass and as he heard Lana’s giggling he started to have fun. So much fun. Enough to make a few hours feel like minutes.
  806. The rain was slowly stopping while they were outside.
  807.  
  808. -“Lana, come on!” he said between laughs
  809.  
  810. -“Come on, big bro. You can’t win, I’m in my element”
  811.  
  812. -“Yeah? We’ll see abouaaaAA!” the sentence ended abruptly as he tripped into the biggest puddle in the yard.
  813.  
  814. -“Lincoln! Are you ok?”
  815. The boy rose covered by that brown mix Lana loved.
  816.  
  817. -“Whoooo iiiiiiis Lincoln? IIIIIII aaaaaam the Muuuuuuuud Menaaaaaaaace!” said Lincoln, attempting to do a bad impersonation of a comic villain. Attempting.
  818.  
  819. -“Pfffthahahaha! Noooo! Help meeee!” Lana also tried to imítate the classic damsel in distress. Tried.
  820. Lincoln’s ‘muddy’ persona was pursuing Lana to the front yard, but they didn’t realize it.
  821. From the window, Lynn Sr. was observing the scene. He was upset because Lana disobeyed him, but seeing his son having fun with one of his sisters, after all, softened him. It was a face he hadn’t seen in months, even if covered by mud.
  822.  
  823. -“...I’m being too kind... but guess I can make an exception.” he uttered to himself, before addressing the siblings.
  824.  
  825. -“Lincoln. Lana. Go inside.” He calmly said, leaning at the door. The kids interpreted it as a death sentence as if they were done for. Lincoln bravely stood up for her sister.
  826.  
  827. -“Dad, it was my faul-”
  828.  
  829. -“You two, go take a shower before dinner. You are drenched.”
  830.  
  831. -“Dinner? What time is it?” Both kids asked confused.
  832.  
  833. -“7:30 pm. How long have you been outside?”
  834. They didn’t dare to respond as it could make the situation worse for the girl.
  835.  
  836. -“Just go take a shower.” he said while ruffling his children hair. “Especially you, Lincoln” realizing his hand was covered by mud. He went to the living room after that.
  837.  
  838. -“Lana, want to go first? Go ask mom for help, I’ll wait.”
  839.  
  840. -“…Okay. Moooom!” she yelled.
  841. Lincoln had a good time, but some successive sneezing made him question if it was worth it.
  842. Yes, definitely it was.
  843. Most of the sisters were now in the living room under the watchful gaze of Lynn Sr., waiting for the dinner. Leni and Lucy waved when they saw her brother. He timidly reciprocated and proceeded to go upstairs. At the second floor, he heard some noise in the bathroom.
  844.  
  845. -“Must be mom and Lana.” Lincoln thought to himself.
  846. He went to his room, looking for some clean clothes and left. Outside his room, he saw Lana sitting in front of the bathroom’s door.
  847.  
  848. -“Lana? Weren’t you and mom inside there”
  849.  
  850. -“I was, but mom wasn’t.”
  851.  
  852. -“But I told you to-?”
  853.  
  854. -“I want to bathe with you.”
  855. Blunt.
  856. And kind of unexpected. Lincoln wanted to avoid the situation. He was used to showering alone now, plus, he didn’t know how to help her. Boys are pretty fast in the shower, but girls seem to take their time in the bathtub. And with previous situations with two of the sisters ending in quite forbidden situations, it was for the better to end it right there.
  857.  
  858. -“Lana, that’s horrible idea. Mom will be far more helpful than me.”
  859.  
  860. -“But I already asked her if I could bathe with you...” She said, twirling her fingers.
  861.  
  862. -“Instead of asking her for help, you asked her that?”
  863.  
  864. -“Yes…Pretty please?”
  865. Lana looked at her brother with puppy eyes, adorable enough to make Lincoln have a change of heart.Also, it was pretty flattering that she preferred him to their mother.
  866.  
  867. -“Fiiiiine”. Lana was too innocent and young to know about the birds and the bees, Lincoln thought.
  868. Although Lucy was also supposed to be and it didn’t stop her. Remembering that made the boy doubt.
  869.  
  870. -“Yayyy!”
  871. Lana entered the bathroom before Lincoln could say anything. After taking a deep breath, he followed.
  872. Both started to take off their clothes. It was awkward for the white-haired boy.
  873. Lincoln stepped first inside the tub, as he was dirtier. He applied a good quantity of shampoo and body wash. Almost all the mud went away with that first application. Shortly, Lana followed.
  874.  
  875. -“So many bubbles!” she said as she entered the bathtub. Lana enjoyed the dirt and the mud, but she also enjoyed playing with soap bubbles. She was a kid after all.
  876.  
  877. -“Okay, Lana. Stand still while I clean your head. Right?”
  878.  
  879. -“Yes, sir!” She playfully answered.
  880. Lincoln still had some dirty spots, but he wanted to get his sister clean and out of the bathroom before continuing his own shower.
  881. While he was putting the shampoo in her head, she broke the silence.
  882.  
  883. -“Linc, I am sorry…”
  884.  
  885. -“I know. If you weren’t we wouldn’t have been playing for hours outside. Don’t you think?”
  886.  
  887. -“Hehe, it tickles…you are right.”
  888.  
  889. -“Now let’s keep this going.”
  890. Lana cleaned her body parts while Lincoln was doing so with her hair. It took Lincoln 5 minutes of continuous scrubbing to make sure all the dirt was gone. Faster than he expected
  891.  
  892. -“There you go. Get out and dry off.”
  893.  
  894. -“Already? It was boring!”
  895.  
  896. -“Don’t push your luck.”
  897. He said turning his upper body around to grab another shampoo pot. When he returned to his original position, Lana was looking down, directly at his crotch.
  898.  
  899. -“...Lincoln…did you clean that place?”
  900.  
  901. -“Uuuuh, not yet.”
  902. Lincoln wanted Lana to leave the room before he started washing his nether region. And he certainly didn’t want his little sister watching it so closely.
  903.  
  904. -“...Mom gets angry if we don’t wash properly.”
  905. She snatched the shower head and started the water flow, aiming directly at Lincoln’s shaft with warm water.
  906. As the water fell upon it, the girl began to scrub it. It seemed she had no idea about what she was doing, but the way she was looking at her brother's member proved that she knew perfectly
  907. .
  908. -“La-Lana, stop it!” he grabbed Lana’s arms, stopping the movement.
  909.  
  910. -“NO! I-I've been horrible to you.” She struggled enough to break free from her brother’s grasp. “And, and this is how adults apologize for …I-I...I think.”
  911.  
  912. -“Where did you get that idea!? You don't know what you are doing!”
  913.  
  914. -“Yes, I know! I’m…I’m making you feel good.” She grabbed the boy’s manhood again. Lincoln's brain was telling him to stop his sister, but his parts had another idea as they started to harden.
  915. She placed her newfound plaything in her mouth and started sucking. Lincoln wanted to resist, to convince himself that it shouldn't feel good, but wasn’t trying to stop her anymore.
  916.  
  917. -“L-Lana, where did you learn this?”
  918.  
  919. -“Puaaf. *pant* In a strange soap opera Lola was watching. She didn’t take her eyes off the screen when I asked her what it was. She told me that it was a grown-up thing with a weird grin.”
  920.  
  921. So, it Lola’s fault? No, it wasn’t anyone fault. That's what he wanted to believe.
  922. Lana continued sucking for a while. The feeling made Lincoln's leg to crumble and made the boy fall on his butt.
  923.  
  924. -“Lincoln” she stopped, “it feels funny…down.”
  925.  
  926. Lincoln hesitated, but his instincts were raging.
  927. Doing it may hurt her. She was small, smaller than Lucy. It wasn’t going to fit.
  928. He touched her cooch with his fingers to what she let out a cute moan. Lincoln had an idea. One of which he was not proud of. The man with a plan, for any situation.
  929. He grabbed Lana and lifted her, preparing for the next movement.
  930.  
  931. -“Lana, hold onto me.”
  932.  
  933. -"Like-Like this?" without doubt, she followed his instructions.
  934.  
  935. -“Now you are going to feel...something getting in down there. At the moments it hurts, tell me.”She nodded.
  936. Carefully, he let it slide inside. She let out a yelp, but she was expecting more pain.
  937.  
  938. -“Keep…going…” she said.
  939. The water and all the slippy products made everything easier. He kept descending Lana, feeling her tightness.
  940. Lana clenched her teeth and pressed her face against Lincoln's chest, but she didn't tell him to stop.
  941. He went on until Lincoln’s tip some kind of wall. This is as far you can go.
  942.  
  943. -“It...doesn’t go further.” He said slowly.
  944.  
  945. -“I-It’s supposed to? What now?”
  946. She knew how to start, but not how to continue. It was Lincoln’s time to teach her sister something.
  947.  
  948. -“Now we…”
  949.  
  950. -“LINCOLN, LANA!” Lola slammed open the door.
  951. She entered like a hurricane in the room as Lincoln and Lana froze in fear.
  952.  
  953. -"What's taking you so long!?"
  954.  
  955. Only a curtain was separating them. The two siblings didn’t dare to make a move, mostly to not give a clue of what they were doing.
  956.  
  957. -“Dinner is ready and mom wants to know what is taking you so long! And she made ME find it out! Can you believe how unfair it is!?” the princess wannabe ranted.
  958. Lincoln nor Lana found the words to answer their sister. She was getting impatient.
  959.  
  960. -“I don’t have all day!”
  961. Lincoln gulped, but the sight of Lana’s face, taken by fear made him react.
  962.  
  963. -“It’s taking more time than we thought, we spent a few hours outside under heavy rain and covered by mud. We got…uh, dirtier than we expected.”
  964. “God. What a generic excuse, Lincoln, you are a genius” he thought to himself, ironically.
  965.  
  966. -“Yikes. Mud. I don’t know why you find fun playing with that. Oh, another question. Why are you holding Lana?”
  967. Their eyes widened. Lincoln quickly reached the conclusion that their shadows played a trick on them.
  968. What now, Mr.genius?
  969.  
  970. -“There was a place I couldn’t reach, and I was afraid of slipping and getting hurt, so Lincoln lifted me and is helping me now.” Lana answered the question her twin asked.
  971.  
  972. -“And he can't do it without carrying you? Hmpf. Whatever, but do it fast, I also want to bathe when I finish dinner.”
  973. And with those words, she left the bathroom. As soon as the door was closed, Lincoln’s legs failed. He fell on his butt. Lana moaned with the impact. He had forgotten the position they were in.
  974.  
  975. -“Oh, shi-, sorry Lana”, her only response was to strengthen the grip with a few tears escaping her eyes.
  976.  
  977. -“Lana…I’m hurting you, we must st-”.
  978. She denied with her head before the boy could end the sentence.
  979.  
  980. -“No, it’s only…Is-is this really that bad?”
  981. Maybe it was innocence, maybe it was the naivety of her young age. She only knew that what they were doing, could be used to show your innermost emotions.
  982. And she wanted to show him that she loved him. The only problem is that it’s not the usual way siblings show their love…although lately, it’s becoming a habit in the life of Lincoln.
  983.  
  984. -“It…kinda is. If others knew, bad things could happen.”
  985.  
  986. -“I don’t want anything bad happening to you.”
  987. She smiled at him. It felt like a punch in the gut. Gosh, how could she be so cute when they were doing...THAT? Lincoln’s inner thinking was interrupted when he felt Lana moving. Up and down.
  988. He thrust, trying to follow her pace, with the intent of avoiding hurting her. She moved her tiny body helped by Lincoln’s arms, making this easier for the girl. She was doing a big effort trying to not let her voice be heard over all the house while her brother was plunging her.
  989. After a few minutes, both were ready to end, even if she was doing her best to keep going. But spending more time there would have raised further suspicions, and it was already too much for her. Lincoln pulled out and let go all the white juice over Lana.
  990.  
  991. -“Hey” she panted “It’s sticky, hehe”
  992. Not every day you see your sister playing with your own goo. That image would be etched in Lincoln’s mind for a long time. For better or for worse.
  993.  
  994. -“Better clean that before getting out of the bathtub”, he said, catching his breath.
  995. One last round of water before they got out, dried off and got dressed. Thay had now to reunite with the others and probably respond awkwardly to why it took them so long to have a simple bath.
  996. When Lincoln and Lana joined their parents and their elder sisters in the grown-up table, they were halfway done with their food.The mother was the first to speak when they appeared.
  997.  
  998. -“There was something wrong? What took you so long?”
  999.  
  1000. -“Just more cleaning than we expected. We know you get angry if we don’t wash properly”, those words were met by sidelong glances from some sisters, but Rita looked convinced.
  1001.  
  1002. -“Good. Now start eating before the food gets too cold.”
  1003. Lana and Lincoln had to take separate ways now, she went to the kiddie table while Lincoln stayed with at the grown-up one (there’s no way back, bro). He seated between Luna and Leni and looked at the last one, who responded with a smile bright as the sun. He couldn’t say the same when he looked at his other sister, who just kept finishing her meal.
  1004.  
  1005. During the time he spent having dinner, he learned how Dad punished the sisters. Any of them couldn’t leave the house without his permission and had to warn him whenever they had to go somewhere because of obligation.
  1006. Lori was banned to take the Vanzilla, and she had to recharge her phone during the night and “survive” the day with the battery it had in the morning. It was going to affect her social life.
  1007. Leni wasn’t allowed to make smoothies nor design clothes yet they weren't banned from the house, only that she couldn't make them.
  1008. Luna was banned from playing her instruments, with a few exceptions. Lynn Sr. wanted to be severe, not a monster.
  1009. For Luan, pranks were forbidden. Also, most of the items she uses in her pranks and jokes were locked up, but they would be returned if she started losing her sanity, which was probably a matter of time.
  1010. And finally, Lynn, who’s punishment Lincoln knew already.
  1011. That was for the older sisters.
  1012. Lynn Sr. was far more indulgent with the younger ones, as he only banned Lana from playing with mud.
  1013. Lucy had to be always accompanied by someone. No dark places, no sudden appearances.
  1014. Lola was prohibited to practice pageants, something that made her mad at Lincoln and let him know by throwing his own dinner to his face.
  1015. Finally, Lisa couldn’t do any experiments, a punishment she was already ignoring.
  1016. Even tho the patriarch warned them that those punishments were only a decimal part of what would happen if they didn’t solve the things with their brother, some of the sisters weren’t willing to give in.
  1017.  
  1018. The family members abandoned the table as soon they finished, Lincoln leaving last, as he began later than his sisters and had to go for another dish thanks to Lola.
  1019. After he ended and left the dish in the sink, he went to the living room to be with the rest of his family, well, with some of his family.
  1020. Rita took Lily to her bed earlier and was making sure she fell asleep.
  1021. Lynn Sr. was in his room. The day was exhausting for him.
  1022. Lana and Lola also weren’t there. Lincoln remembered that Lola also wanted to bathe and surely have her beauty sleep, and Lana…she was surely tired.
  1023. Luna said before leaving the grown-up table she was going directly to her room, she needed to think about something.
  1024. The remaining sisters were changing channels on the TV, trying to find something everyone would like to avoid confrontations. For the moment, they haven’t been successful.
  1025. When the boy sat on the couch, immediately felt Lucy snuggling against him, and Leni resting her head on his. It was a bit awkward, given the “situations” where they have been involved, but he felt cozy nonetheless, at least until he noticed Lori staring at them.
  1026. Well, more at "him" than "them", her eyes were piercing through Lincoln, judging, with something more he couldn’t describe. She maintained her glare before looking back to her phone. He felt guilty; even if Lori didn’t know what happened between them and some of his sisters, he did. He wasn’t free of blame.
  1027. Since accommodating themselves, Lucy and Leni didn’t say a word. They started ignoring the TV at the moment Lincoln sat. They were falling sleep over him. The only thing keeping them awake, Luan and Lynn arguing over the remote.
  1028.  
  1029. -“Girls, keep it down, these two are trying to sleep”
  1030.  
  1031. -“If they want to sleep, they should go to their rooms, and stop using you as a pillow.” remarked Lori, proving further she was not happy with the scene
  1032.  
  1033. -“Yeah, Lori is right, and you, give me that!” said Lynn, pointing to Luan.
  1034.  
  1035. -“Come and get it! You don’t even have a “remote” possibility against me.”
  1036.  
  1037. -“HEY! Dad banned you from-”
  1038.  
  1039. -“HONK!”
  1040. Trying to distract her adversary, Luan made some noise with her horn as loudly as possible. That fateful sound made Lincoln jump behind the couch instinctively, startling all the sisters in the room. Leni and Lucy, now completely awake due to the brash movement of the boy, looked at him. He was on the ground, scratching his head.
  1041. The landing wasn’t graceful, he hit his head hard.
  1042.  
  1043. -“Lincy!” Leni jumped over the couch to reach her brother and see if he was fine.
  1044.  
  1045. -“There wasn’t anything aimed at you, brother. You can rest.” Lucy tried her best to reassure him like Leni did, but the older sister had a tad bit more of practice doing so.
  1046.  
  1047. -“…Hey Lynn, you know? You can have the control…” Luan dropped the remote and left the room, with a forced smile that contrasted the orbs on her face, full of misery.
  1048. That was what she achieved, she wanted to change her feelings, but ended up changing his own brother. She only felt defeat while going upstairs.
  1049.  
  1050. -“HA! I always win!” exclaimed Lynn while picking up the remote, unable to read the situation.
  1051. Lincoln calmed down pretty quickly. He felt somehow bad for his reaction and how it seemed to affect Luan, but it wasn’t something he controlled anymore, his survival instincts acted on its own.
  1052.  
  1053. -“Are you feeling better?”
  1054.  
  1055. -“Yeah, thanks, Leni”
  1056.  
  1057. -“And Lucy” the goth added with a gloomy tone.
  1058.  
  1059. -“Yes, yes, thank you too.” he said with a smile. Lucy blushed a bit, but only she knew that.
  1060.  
  1061. -“Kids, brush your teeth and go to your rooms!” Mama Loud shouted. It was time to call it a day.
  1062.  
  1063. -“Dang it.” Lynn didn’t have time to gloat in victory. “Come on, Duchess of darkness. I don’t want you to keep me up with your poems.”
  1064.  
  1065. -“Greatness is not appreciated by the simple-minded.”
  1066.  
  1067. -“What does that mean?”
  1068.  
  1069. -“Nothing.”
  1070. Both went upstairs, leaving Leni, Lori and Lincoln in the living room.
  1071.  
  1072. -“I’m afraid they’re never going to completely get along.”
  1073.  
  1074. -“You are afraid Linc? Is there something spooky? You can sleep with me if you are scared.” Leni said, hugging her brother.Sometimes she heard what interested her. Or maybe this was genuine good-will and there were no hidden intentions behind? Probably the second.
  1075.  
  1076. -“The twerp is not sleeping with you. Get it?”
  1077.  
  1078. -“Why? If he is scared I’m not letting him alone. Or-” she gasped. “You want him to sleep with you”. The way Leni said it, sounded as an accusation.
  1079.  
  1080. -“Leni, stop saying literally nonsenses if you know what’s good for your own health.” Lori said, gritting her teeth.
  1081.  
  1082. -“Uuuh, Leni you should sto-”
  1083.  
  1084. -“You’ll get wrinkles if you are angry all the time, you know?” She said with a frown and a smile.
  1085.  
  1086. -“UPSTAIRS! TO YOUR OWN ROOMS! NOW!”
  1087. When the last word escaped Lori’s mouth, Lincoln ran, feeling his own life on the line. It was for the best to avoid Lori's rage. Leni, on the other hand, didn’t move. Standing still, she was defying Lori’s authority.
  1088.  
  1089. -“NOW!” The eldest pointed at the stairs.
  1090.  
  1091. -“Hmpf, I don’t know what’s gotten into you”
  1092.  
  1093. -“ME!? YOU and I are going to have a looooooong conversation.”
  1094. Lincoln was listening to that from the bathroom, but probably the rest of the family members also heard the two sisters arguing. As soon as he felt them going to the second floor, he hustled to his room and tried to watch them over an aperture on the door.
  1095. But they were silent, they entered and left the bathroom in less than 2 minutes, without uttering a single word to each other.
  1096. The calm before the storm.
  1097.  
  1098. -“This is messing up. Messing up badly.” Lost in his thoughts, he still didn’t notice the other person in the room, who had waited enough for the white-haired boy to notice her.
  1099.  
  1100. -“Lincoln, turn around.”
  1101. The leap Lincoln made, allowed him to touch the ceiling before putting in scene the second ungraceful landing in less than 10 minutes.
  1102. Watching from the floor, he asked the visitor:
  1103.  
  1104. -“What are you doing here?”
  1105.  
  1106.  
  1107. In each one of the sisters' rooms, the situations were completely different.
  1108. Lori and Leni were having the “conversation” Lori wanted, but it wasn’t going as she desired. Leni could be happy-go-lucky and a bit of a birdbrain, but she knew perfectly what could mean trouble for her… and for Lincoln.
  1109.  
  1110. -“Leni, I’m not asking you again, something happened today?”
  1111.  
  1112. -“I’ve already told you, I woke up late, and Lincoln prepared my lunch. After that, I apologized to him for how I’ve been treating him and we watched TV together until all of you returned. It’s not hard to understand” the sassiness in her words only infuriated Lori further. Was she questioning her intelligence? SHE!?
  1113.  
  1114. -“I don’t care if any of you have stopped doing what Lisa told us, that self condam…condotia…SELF CONDITIONAMENT CRAP...well I do, but now I want to know if you have done something bad to our brother!”
  1115.  
  1116. -“I haven’t done anything harmful to him like YOU have. And if you excuse me, I’m going to sleep”
  1117.  
  1118. -“LENI! Do you want me to believe that after two months of ignoring him, he has forgiven you so easily? That half an evening watching TV solved everything?”
  1119.  
  1120. -“Goodnight Lori.” Leni turned off the lights
  1121. Lori didn’t enjoy how her sister was behaving today, too defensive, questioning everything she said as if she had something to hide. Lori realized with ease that interrogating Leni wasn’t going to work. When her ideas were clear, Leni was a quick thinker.
  1122. -“It's not over yet, Leni.” she said, before laying on her bed.
  1123. The situation was quite different in Luna and Luan’s room, the rocker was trying her best to stop the crying of her younger sister.
  1124.  
  1125. -“You are overreacting. ‘Hate’ doesn’t exist in his vocabulary. Lincoln is unable to feel hatred towards someone, and less towards any of us…even after how we’ve been treating him.”
  1126. Luan’s face was burrowed on her pillow. Only sobs answered Luna.
  1127.  
  1128. -“Look" Luna sighed "maybe if you do what Dad told us and apologize you’ll feel better.”
  1129.  
  1130. -“And how I do it if everytime I get close to him, he just cowers in fear?” Luan bawled back at her sister.
  1131.  
  1132. -“I’m sure that’s because you prank him almost everytime you two cross your paths. And that stupid horn of yours probably doesn’t help.”
  1133.  
  1134. -“Hey! It’s not stupid, it’s funny…” the water flow was slowly stopping.
  1135.  
  1136. -“Luan…”
  1137.  
  1138. -“Jokes and pranks are part of me…of who I am, Luna. And he is scared of an essential part of me. What can I do?” Luan said, sniffing.
  1139.  
  1140. -“I don’t know, sis. Guess you’ll have to discover it yourself.”
  1141.  
  1142. -“It’s far-Wait. I know! I just have to prove him pranks are harmless. Then he won’t be afraid of what I do anymore.”
  1143. Luan’s eyes were red, but tears no longer fluked from them, as if the idea she had was going to help more herself than Lincoln. Luna narrowed her eyes while listening to her sister. She had an idea of where this was going.
  1144.  
  1145. -“And how are you going to show him?”
  1146.  
  1147. -“Playing a prank on him, but of course.” Luan’s logic was flawless.
  1148.  
  1149. -“Soooooo, you are going to prank him until he stops reacting negatively to them?”
  1150.  
  1151. -“Indeed. It’s bulletproof, don’t you think?” Luan regained her smile and Luna didn’t want to take it away again.
  1152.  
  1153. -“Suuuuuure. But if by any chance it doesn’t work, I’ll be happy to help you.”
  1154.  
  1155. -“Thanks Luna…by the way, have you?…you know”
  1156.  
  1157. -“Apologized to Lincoln? Nope.”
  1158.  
  1159. -“I thought you wanted more than anyone to…”
  1160.  
  1161. -“Lisa said to not force the situation. Besides, he hasn’t talked to me yet, so I’m taking it easy.”
  1162.  
  1163. -“Okay… Thanks again. Goodnight”
  1164.  
  1165. -“Anytime, sis. Goodnight” Luna said, going to her own bed.
  1166. Luan was nervous, she had a lot of thinking to do. Her next prank had to be epic! It was something important for her, she couldn’t mess up.
  1167. Meanwhile, Lucy and Lynn’s routine didn’t change much. The jock was talking about sports, usually the ones she played and the goth pretended to listen.
  1168.  
  1169. “And then I caught the ball mid-air, and…” the words Lynn was speaking were lost in the air, as Lucy was immersed in a book.
  1170.  
  1171. -“Mmh-mmh” the black haired girl murmured, it usually kept her sister going but tonight things took a small deviation
  1172.  
  1173. -“Don't ‘mmh-mmh’ me. I asked you something!”
  1174.  
  1175. -“I wasn’t listening” she answered without taking her gaze away from the book.
  1176.  
  1177. -“Yeah, I know. Normally you hide it better. You’ve been weird today…well weirder.”
  1178.  
  1179. -“Just your imagination.”
  1180.  
  1181. -“What? You have been ignoring us most of the day. In the house, in the mall, starting with the thing I asked you this morning. You didn’t answer!”
  1182.  
  1183. -“I don’t recall any question.”
  1184.  
  1185. -“Uuugh, Why did you return to our room when it was almost dawn?”
  1186.  
  1187. -“…Remorse didn’t let me sleep, so I went to ask Lincoln for forgiveness. Happy now?”
  1188.  
  1189. -“That’s all? I thought you were sacrificing rats or something like that.”
  1190.  
  1191. -“Hilarious.” The fact that Lucy didn’t move her head a single inch during the conversation was making Lynn more annoyed than it should.
  1192.  
  1193. -“What’s with all of you? I don’t think what we were doing was THAT bad to need an apology. It sure wasn’t nice, but it will harden up Lincoln’s character. He must face challenges. He is too bland!”
  1194.  
  1195. -“You are treating him like a punching ball, as you always do; that’s why you think what we’ve done is not bad. Lincoln is fine as he is. You should not obligate anyone to act as you wish.”
  1196.  
  1197. -“But it will help him! That’s why I’m not apologizing to him until he shows some guts.”
  1198.  
  1199. -“Everyone grounded because you don’t want to say three words. I’m sure the others will be delighted to hear that.”
  1200.  
  1201. -“I don’t care! Goodnight!”
  1202.  
  1203. -“Stubborn. Sweet dreams.”
  1204. While in these 3 rooms there were different kinds of conflicts, in the other two silence reigned. In Lisa and Lily’s room, the baby was already sleeping while the genius was getting ready to do so. And in the twins room, Lana was also sleeping and Lola…well, Lola wasn’t there.
  1205.  
  1206. -“How rude, Linky. Do you know the meaning of tact?” the boy wasn’t ready for this unexpected visit.
  1207.  
  1208. -“Uuh, sorry? I don’t know any other way of ask-”
  1209.  
  1210. -“Silence, you trash!” she yelled as she hit the wall with something she was holding.
  1211.  
  1212. -“What…is that?” Lincoln asked, fearful of how she could react
  1213.  
  1214. -“This? Oh, it’s just a whip. Daddy bought it to me as a souvenir when we went to see those horsies. Was a fun day. Don’t you remember? Anyway, thanks for noticing.”
  1215. The fast change of attitude from one sentence to another was only frightening Lincoln further. Those were the moments Lola was more dangerous. His words had to be chosen carefully, or else…he didn’t even want to think about it.
  1216.  
  1217. -“Y-you’re…”
  1218.  
  1219. -“Hush!” another movement of the whip stopped Lincoln mid-sentence. All his body tensed. The safest option right now was to go along with her.
  1220.  
  1221. -“It’s my turn to ask you something, dear big brother.”
  1222. Sweat started to fall from Lincoln’s forehead. He didn’t like how that sounded, or where this was going. He had to get out of there. But where he could go? He was already in his room, going out would surely wake up someone.
  1223.  
  1224. -“Do you think I’m stupid, Linky?”
  1225.  
  1226. -“Wh-what?” any answer the boy could think of only had negative backlash from Lola in his mind. He was looking for an escape route. He would rather have any other sister shouting at him for waking her up than being facing Lola right now.
  1227.  
  1228. -“Stop looking at the door, you dimwit, and answer my question” She was getting enraged by every second it passed.
  1229.  
  1230. -“…No?”
  1231.  
  1232. -“Oh, if you think I’m not stupid, why you lied to my face? ” she poked the whip on his cheek.
  1233.  
  1234. -“Wh-what are you talking a-about?” his words were followed by a lash crossing his face.
  1235.  
  1236. -“I KNOW PERFECTLY WHAT YOU AND LANA WHERE DOING IN THE BATHTUB!”
  1237. Lincoln felt a shiver. Did someone hear what she said? The pain he felt was irrelevant in comparison to the concern of someone else discovering it.
  1238.  
  1239. -“Lola, please, keep your voice down.”
  1240.  
  1241. -“You are not in the position of ordering me around, you stupid idiot.”
  1242.  
  1243. -“Please, I’ll… I’ll do anything…” he felt humiliated, but he had to protect Lana.
  1244.  
  1245. -“That’s more like it! You would be a great slave.” There it was, a word that stripped away any right a man could have. Lola loved to use it towards him, but the chances to do so where slim, so she took advantage of each and every one of them.
  1246.  
  1247. -“What do you want me to do?” he said, gritting his teeth.
  1248.  
  1249. -“Something soooooo simple, that even you can do it.” Further humiliation. Lola enjoyed taking away Lincoln’s pride for some reason. “I want you to entertain me. Pretty easy, huh?”
  1250.  
  1251. -“Entertain you? That’s too ambiguous, I-I have no idea how.”
  1252.  
  1253. -“See Linky? You NEED to follow orders. Okay, I’ll tell you how to start. Take off your pants and kneel.”
  1254.  
  1255. -“You can’t be serious.” Another lash, this time to his leg. He felt a stinging pain that almost made his legs fail, but he could maintain balance, mostly to avoid another sample of Lola's displeasure.
  1256.  
  1257. -“Do not question. DO.IT.”
  1258. Lincoln dropped his pants and kneeled, much to Lola enjoyment. She was observing the newly uncovered skin and underpants, poking him here and there until she reached the crotch. Now her attention was settled in that zone, touching it with the whip through his undies, delighting in Lincoln’s moans.
  1259.  
  1260. -“You are enjoying this, aren’t YOU?” and another lash. The boy was twisting on the ground. This one hurt 10 times more than the others, and yet, Lincoln found himself with a growing erection.
  1261.  
  1262. -“Return to your position, slave.” Lincoln fought the pain and did as he was commanded. “Now let me see what you have below that filthy underwear.” Lincoln hesitated but seeing Lola preparing another swing made him obey, dropping the undies to his knees.
  1263.  
  1264. -“Impressive. But maybe I overdid it a bit. Look how ‘swollen’ it is” she kissed it twice to make it feel better. It somehow worked.
  1265.  
  1266. -“L-Lola.”
  1267.  
  1268. -“I haven’t given you permission to talk. Now stand still for a bit, I’m going for something” Lola left the room, leaving the door open. Lincoln was shaking. What if someone went to the bathroom now and saw him like this? On his knees at full mast, quite an embarrassing position. "Fortunately", Lola didn’t take too long to return. Now she had a bottle in one hand and the whip in the other.
  1269.  
  1270. -“What is that?” Lola glared at him but answered the question.
  1271.  
  1272. -“Oh, just an EXPENSIVE face lotion mom bought for me. But I’m willing to let you use it.” Without giving him time to react, she let out the contents of the bottle over Lincoln’s penis. It was cold enough to send a chill all through his body
  1273. .
  1274. -“Come on. Entertain me” Lola said with a grin. Lincoln slowly began to stroke his shaft in front of the expectant sister. It went on for a few minutes, up and down, time after time...
  1275.  
  1276. -“Stop it! This is boring. "She said with displeasure "Mmmh…I know! Lay down.”
  1277. Lincoln prepared to reach his bed. Lola had other plans.
  1278.  
  1279. -“No, no. The bed is for me. You lay on the floor. But before that, take off your shirt.” Lincoln was following orders almost mindlessly, only feeling anger and fear towards Lola, thinking of how after Dad scolding them, and even some sisters showing true repentance, the behavior towards him of others got worse. He did as the little mistress commanded him. On the ground now, the boy could only see his sister face, staring at him over the edge of his own bed. She was doing strange movements, but Lincoln couldn’t see them.
  1280.  
  1281. -“Continue.”
  1282.  
  1283. -“Lola… I don’t want to…”
  1284.  
  1285. -“You don’t want now, but you wanted it before, huh?” her tone rose for a moment, but quickly calmed again. She repositioned herself and sat on the edge of the bed.
  1286.  
  1287. -“I think you need a little incentive” she threw something pink at Lincoln’s face. When he grabbed and unwrapped it, he gulped at the sight of what it was. A pair of pink panties. Lincoln looked his younger sister, to see they were in fact, the ones she was wearing a moment ago, and they were wet.
  1288.  
  1289. -“Enjoying the view, big brother?” She jumped off the bed and put a foot on each side of Lincoln’s head. He could see everything, without censorship. His hands were automatically reaching his member again, unconsciously wrapping it with the piece of cloth. Before he could do a single movement with his hand, Lola sat in his face.
  1290.  
  1291. -“Consider those a present for you. Can use them right now while you lick me like the dog you are!” humiliation again, Lincoln tried with all his might to not react to the treatment Lola was delivering, but his body betrayed him, as he started to stroke his hand and lick the slit he had in front of him.She grabbed his hair and pushed his face further into her. Lana said that she knew what to do by catching a glimpse of a “weird soap opera” Lola was watching. He wondered what kind of things she was really watching to get these ideas. To do everything she has done.
  1292.  
  1293. -“Enough.” She panted “Come here.” Lola moved the action to Lincoln’s bed. Trying to avoid his sister's eyes, he rested his head against the pillow and let Lola do what she wanted. She was preparing the ground for the next step. She dropped a good quantity of lotion on Lincoln’s member and got rid of her dress. Standing over it, she told her brother:
  1294.  
  1295. -“This will feel better than Lana”
  1296. Lincoln noticed something different. Something that contrasted the dominance she was showing before. A crack in her voice when the other twin was mentioned. Lincoln didn’t have time to think, for when she finished those words, she engulfed his log, as far as her tiny body let her.
  1297.  
  1298. -“UNNNNGGggghh…” more than she could handle.
  1299. -“Lola! Stop this! You are hurting yourself!”. After all, he was worried more about his sister than himself. Her face began tearing up when she started to move. She was in deep pain.
  1300.  
  1301. -“S-shut up. If she can do it, I can do it better!”
  1302.  
  1303. -“Lola, what kind of sick competition do you think this is? Stop!” he grabbed Lola’s body, rendering her unable to move while he was still inside her. Forcefully popping out might hurt her even more.
  1304.  
  1305. -“Let me go! I want to do this. I must…” tears falling faster and faster, undoing her make-up.
  1306.  
  1307. -“Look, whatever happened to you and…”
  1308.  
  1309. -“DON’T SAY HER NAME AGAIN! THIS IS NOT ABOUT LANA?. THIS IS ABOUT YOU AND ME!” Lincoln didn’t expect those words. She started hitting his chest with almost no strength. “Why do you always try to avoid me in the house?" she sobbed " Why do you look for excuses whenever I-I want to play with you?...Why did you choose her over me?...” she asked with a thread of voice, still hitting her brother.
  1310.  
  1311. -“Lola…I didn’t choose anything…It...it just happened.”
  1312.  
  1313. -“And why it couldn’t “just happen" with me?”
  1314. Lincoln, half-incorporated, which made his sister meep. She was now sitting on his lap, still connected to him. The fear and anger he felt before faded away. He couldn’t stop himself from hugging his sister.
  1315.  
  1316. -“You think I’ve been unfair to you? Then I promise I’ll make it up.”.
  1317.  
  1318. -“Aren’t you mad?” she sniffed. Lola didn’t understand the reaction of Lincoln. She was toying with him, insulting him to his face. And yet, he still wanted to help her.
  1319.  
  1320. -“I was mad. You said and did pretty hurtful things to me. But I think everyone can have a bad day…or weeks.” A big smile appeared on his face.
  1321.  
  1322. -“You are a doofus” she smiled back, wiping away the tears with her forearm.
  1323.  
  1324. -“Kinda. Now let’s see how we fix this…” Having a catharsis while inside someone can be quite an experience.
  1325.  
  1326. -“Linc…I want to keep going.”
  1327.  
  1328. -“Lola, you don’t-”
  1329.  
  1330. -“Please…”
  1331.  
  1332. -“…You asked me to be gentle. I’ll do my best.” Lincoln began to thrust slowly, helping Lola move. The pain she was feeling before slowly faded, turning into pleasure as time went on. Lincoln was keeping up his word.
  1333.  
  1334. -“Lincoln." she said out of the blue "before you keep going, I want to say…Well, you know it already. I’m-I’m bad with this things.”
  1335.  
  1336. -“Oh, but I want you to say it” the smile on his face turned smug.
  1337.  
  1338. -“You cheeky…I’m sorry. For today, for this weeks…months.”
  1339.  
  1340. -“You are forgiven, but you must find another way to show your feelings.”
  1341.  
  1342. -“I’ll do my best.” Lincoln continued softly caressing his younger sister while going back and forth in her insides. The previous teasing from Lola made Lincoln unable to hold it much longer.
  1343.  
  1344. -“Linky, that white stuff…they say it’s dangerous, right?”
  1345.  
  1346. -“Yeah, but still you are too young...that doesn’t make it better…” said Lincoln, remembering what he was doing.
  1347.  
  1348. -“And…And how it feels?”
  1349.  
  1350. -“You’ll know in a secOND!” He moaned before shooting his seed all the way inside Lola.
  1351. With each discharge, both siblings bodies twitched. In mere minutes, the dominance showed by Lola turned into insecurity, and Lincoln’s anger turned into relief. Brother and sister reconciliated, not in a normal way, but sure it was effective.
  1352.  
  1353. -“Hehe, it feels funny...and kind of gross. But I liked it.” Lola said happily.
  1354.  
  1355. -“Lola…even if you liked it…you understand why you can’t say to anyone what happened, right?” the blonde nodded. ”And now sorry if I sound bossy, but get dressed again. You must go to your room before anyone notices.”
  1356. After a minute, both had acceptable looks again. Lincoln opened the door a little to see if there was anyone there. Thankfully, it was clear. Before stepping out of the room, he felt a tug on his shirt.
  1357.  
  1358. -“Lincoln, can you…carry me to my room like, you know, a-?”
  1359. He quickly picked her up and put her in the position he knew she wanted. The bridal carry.
  1360.  
  1361. -“Not a problem, my princess” she blushed heavily, with a timid smile.
  1362.  
  1363. -“Onwards, my knight!” She said, carefully grabbing his neck. The sweetest thing she said to him in a while.
  1364. When they were reaching the twins room, Lana suddenly opened the door. The princess and the knight got startled, but they quickly saw Lana was trembling, in the verge of tears. When she realized the figure before she was Lincoln (carrying Lola), she hugged his leg, with immense strength.
  1365.  
  1366. -“Linc, I-I was g-going to your room…I h-had a bad dream. Som-someone hurt you and, and then you, you were no longer with us and…”
  1367.  
  1368. -“Hey, hey! It’s okay Lana, it was only a nightmare.”
  1369.  
  1370. -“But-but it was real, I saw it!” She babbled” Can I- Can I sleep with you?” words were starting to fail her.
  1371.  
  1372. -“Sure, I can get a pillow and find a place in your rooAGH!” the pressure on his neck augmented.
  1373.  
  1374. -“WE sleep in YOUR room!” Lola wanted to ask him that first, but her twin popping out of nowhere was something she didn’t expect.
  1375.  
  1376. -“Fine, fine, just let me breathe.”
  1377. The three of them walked back to Lincoln’s room. He accommodated a bit the messy bed and hopped inside. Then Lola and Lana followed. Each grabbed one of Lincoln’s arms, and rested her heads, on his chest. The boy observed them with affection.
  1378.  
  1379. -“Goodnight, you two.”
  1380.  
  1381. -“Goodnight, Lincoln” both answered.
  1382. The siblings soon drifted away into sandman’s sweet embrace.
  1383.  
  1384. Two nights in a row, Lincoln had company during his sleep time. However, this time, the guests were still there when he woke up. The first rays of dawn bathed his face, and only one thing popped into his mind when this beautiful new day started.
  1385.  
  1386. -“Dang it. I’m still tired.”
  1387.  
  1388. The boy began to scrutinize his surroundings. Quickly, he realized the twins were still attached to his arms, with the most peaceful expression he had ever seen on them. Lincoln took a time to watch his sisters. It was fun how in the span of one day, things can completely change. Lana seemed to be enjoying her sleep, like if that ‘nightmare’ that woke her up last night never happened. On the other hand, Lola, even if sleeping deeply, didn’t look so good. Rests of her mascara and make-up were still on dripping on her face mixed with the tears she shed hours ago. She would have screamed if she saw her own reflection. Lincoln didn’t understand her fixation with her image, she’s always been pretty. And Lisa was scribbling something in a notebook while standing at the side of the bed, how typical of her.
  1389. Wait, what?
  1390.  
  1391. -“Lisa! What are you doing?” he ‘whispered’.
  1392.  
  1393. -“Don’t rishe your voice, brother. Or you’ll wake up theshe two”
  1394.  
  1395. -“Oh, yeah. You’re r- ANSWER ME!”
  1396.  
  1397. -“I’m jusht gathering shome information. Don’t worry, I’m already finished. You can go back to shleep if you wish.”
  1398.  
  1399. -“Information? About what?” Lisa stared at him with an unamused expression.
  1400.  
  1401. -“When you…free yourshelf, I need you to come to my room. I have shome queshtionsh for you. Farewell.”
  1402.  
  1403. -“Lincoooln, don’t make so much noise, please.”-“Yeah, it’s still too early”
  1404. The twins showed their desire to keep sleeping. Lincoln wanted to follow Lisa, but in his situation, it was something rather difficult. He spent the next half hour looking at the walls of his bedroom. Questions? Lisa never asked questions, she confirmed what she already knew. This meant trouble for him…for them. His thoughts were interrupted by the opening of the door.
  1405.  
  1406. -“Lincoln sweetie, I need you to….Daaaaw, aren’t you three the cutest little bunch?” If their mother only knew.
  1407. Lincoln was caught by surprise but kept calm the best way he could. Acting oddly in that situation would raise suspicions. What Rita saw were just three siblings harmlessly sleeping together, and her vision should remain untouched.
  1408.  
  1409. -“Anyways, I need you to accompany me to the grocery store. Your father left early in the morning, an emergency at the job. And technically, your sisters are still grounded so you are the only one who can do it. Your dad probably will get mad if he knows I allowed them to go without his permission…I know what they did was completely wrong, but maybe he’s being too strict.”
  1410.  
  1411. -“Fine, I’ll get ready. But I need to get out of here first.”
  1412.  
  1413. -“Oh, that’ll be easy. LOLA! LANA!, stop pretending to be sleeping and go to your room!”
  1414. The twins got up with thunderous speed. They knew Mom’s authority shouldn’t be questioned.
  1415.  
  1416. -“Thanks for letting us sleep with you!” both said before getting out of their sight.
  1417.  
  1418. -“We’ll be going in an hour. Be ready.” she kneeled and kissed her only son forehead. It was soothing and relaxing, it was something he needed. While Lincoln was getting dressed, he heard some murmur coming from the oldest sisters room. He didn’t give it importance, his priority was to choose his attire. He decided for an orange polo and some jeans. A classic. When he finished, the murmur had vanished. Now it was a full-blown dispute.
  1419.  
  1420. -“Don’t start with this again so early in the morning!”
  1421.  
  1422. -“Leni, do not ignore my questions!”
  1423.  
  1424. -“G-girls, what’s going on?” Lincoln tried to meddle between the eldest sisters. Mistake. Lori grabbed him by the arm and put him in front of her. She was going to get what she wanted, one way or another.
  1425.  
  1426. -“Okay twerp, if she doesn’t want to talk, I’ll make sure you do it. Did-” before she could continue, Leni snatched her brother from Lori’s grip and put him on a hug. Lincoln was filled with confusion. What was all of this about?
  1427.  
  1428. -“Stop that! You’ll hurt him! Are you okay Lincoln?” Fire could be seen in Lori’s eyes. Only morning and her rage was at boiling point.
  1429.  
  1430. -“Leni! I was talking to him!”
  1431.  
  1432. -“No, you were going to force him to say what you wanted to hear!”
  1433.  
  1434. -“Uh, girls, sorry to interrupt, but what’s going on?”
  1435.  
  1436. -“Lori has the stupid idea I’ve been hurting you and doing bad things.”
  1437.  
  1438. -“It’s not an idea, I know it’s literally happening. I just need evidence!”
  1439.  
  1440. -“You are one of the ones who hurt me the most this last two months...” Lincoln covered his mouth with his hands instantly at the moment he said that without thinking. He was going to retract, but Leni tightening her hug and Lori looking away from him made him reconsider.
  1441.  
  1442. -“Tw-…Lincoln…not that kind of bad things…something even worse.”
  1443.  
  1444. -“Lori, I promise you Leni hasn’t done anything wrong to me.” Lori felt no faltering in his voice, which made her feel weak. Was she mistaken? No, there had to be something else. Without a word, she turned on her heels and re-entered her room. A silent place inside the loudest house of Royal Woods was something quite rare, but Leni and Lincoln were there, standing in a hall completely surrounded by quietness .
  1445.  
  1446. -“Lincoln…you lied to Lori…”
  1447.  
  1448. -“I haven’t lied, you…you didn’t do anything wrong. We did. I’m not letting you carry the blame alone. Besides…what we did… it’s as wrong as you think it is.”
  1449.  
  1450. -“We don’t deserve you.” she started rubbing her cheek against his face playfully.
  1451.  
  1452. -“Hey, it tickles. Please let me go, mom is waiting for me.”
  1453.  
  1454. -“Are you going somewhere? Buy me something nice!”
  1455.  
  1456. -“We are going to the grocery store. We’ll be back in no time...”
  1457.  
  1458. -“Oh. Then…see you!” she happily went downstairs, humming something. In reality, there was still twenty minutes until they leave home but a visit to Lisa’s room was due. Did she want answers? She was going to have questions. Lincoln opened the door without knocking first. Lisa didn’t pay attention, she was busy with some test tubes with mysterious liquids.
  1459.  
  1460. -“I’ll be with you in a moment, brother. Meanwhile, can you attend Lily? She sheems quite pleashed to shee you.”
  1461.  
  1462. -“Poo-poo!” she raised her arms, expecting to be lifted from her cradle, and her big brother didn’t disappoint her.
  1463.  
  1464. -“What you wanted to ask me, Lisa. I’ve gotta go.”
  1465. She let the tubes and turned on her computer. The first thing in the screen was familiar to Lincoln. That weird document, now with much more things written.
  1466.  
  1467. -“It might be awkward to anshwer thish, but… which of our shishters have apologized to you?”
  1468. Lincoln found the question strangely normal. He expected something more convoluted.
  1469.  
  1470. -“It… Lana, Leni, Lola and Lucy.”
  1471.  
  1472. -“In that order?”
  1473.  
  1474. -“Uh, no. Does it matter?”
  1475.  
  1476. -“Not really, but I prefer knowing it.”
  1477.  
  1478. -“It was Lucy, Leni, Lana and Lola.”
  1479.  
  1480. -“That’s more logical, but Lola ish an anomaly in my calculations” the genius was speaking to herself now in a low voice, but in a silent room Lincoln had no problem to listen to it.
  1481.  
  1482. -“Calculations?”
  1483. -“After father’s outburst, I tried to foreshee the order in which the girlsh would break and go to ashk your forgivenessh. But it sheems I didn’t conshider shome factors.”
  1484.  
  1485. -“That’s a bit…psycho.”
  1486.  
  1487. -“Intelligence can be mishtaken for inshanity. Now, shecond queshtion. Remember what I told you two nightsh ago? How did they apologize?” There it was, the conversation was starting to take a path Lincoln didn’t want to walk.
  1488.  
  1489. -“Wh-what?”
  1490.  
  1491. -“Are you playing dumb or do I really have to reformulate my queshtion?" Lisa sighed "Did they jusht tell you ‘I’m shorry’ or there wash shomething elshe?” Lisa asked in a mocking tone.
  1492. Lincoln’s eyes widened. Like he thought before. Lisa never wanted answers, she already knew. But was all that happened part of one of her experiments? For how long has she known? It was Lincoln’s turn to ask.
  1493.  
  1494. -“You…knew what was going to happen?” feigning ignorance won’t do in this situation, less against the person he was standing. Lincoln had to face this situation directly.
  1495.  
  1496. -“I knew what might. Shincerely, it wash more a matter of ‘when’ rather than ‘what’ will happen.”
  1497.  
  1498. -“When…since when?”
  1499.  
  1500. -“For a long time, I had shuspicionsh, but when you shtarted sheeing that girl…Ronnie Anne ish her name? Well, I confirmed it.”
  1501.  
  1502. -“And if you knew, couldn’t you have warned me? Or…prevent it?” Lincoln was still not sure of his own actions. He no longer considered them wrong, but they were far away from ‘correct’.
  1503.  
  1504. -“You wouldn’t have believed me. Beshidesh, I actually tried to prevent it, but I failed, That’s why I’m doing thish. To control the conshequencesh, I need to be shure of everything. Sho I need you to anshwer me.” The boy looked down, to the smiling baby in his arms. He felt the worst he has ever felt. What could he have done to change what was happening? But asking that to himself wouldn’t change a thing. He had to carry on with the decisions he “made”.
  1505.  
  1506. -“…Yes…we”
  1507.  
  1508. -“I don’t need shpecific detailsh, that would do.”
  1509.  
  1510. -“…What did you mean before?...consequences?”
  1511.  
  1512. -“Attachment or repulshion. Thoshe were in short the two different endingsh. After what you told me, only one of them has become a reality.”
  1513.  
  1514. -“…Well, Lori seems more frequently angry with me, and Luan…”
  1515.  
  1516. -“Lori ish kind of a shpecial cashe…It’s enough. Mother might be waiting for you.” She was right, twenty minutes had passed in a blink of an eye. He had to go. He let Lily in her cradle and prepared to leave the room, but something stopped him. He wasn’t completely satisfied.
  1517.  
  1518. -“I… have more things…”
  1519.  
  1520. -“I know. You will undershtand in due time.” She began to write the new information as the boy went to join his mother.
  1521.  
  1522. The trip to the grocery store was silent with only Vanzilla’s engine was making any kind of sound. Lincoln was thinking about everything Lisa told him, while mama Loud was trying to remember if everything she needed was on the list she made or something was forgotten. When they arrived, Rita handed her son a note.
  1523.  
  1524. -“I need you to look for this. Do you know where everything is?” Lincoln took a quick glance at the list.
  1525.  
  1526. -“Yeah, no prob.”
  1527.  
  1528. -“Look for me if you can’t carry everything.”
  1529. The boy started looking for the first article on the list but was cut short by a familiar voice.
  1530.  
  1531. -“Heeey, bro. How you doing?”
  1532.  
  1533. -“Bobby? You work here now?”
  1534.  
  1535. -“Yeah, it’s not badly paid. Haha." The number of jobs that young man had was astonishing "Anyway, have you had another fight with my sister? She seems upset these last days when looking at her phone.”
  1536.  
  1537. -“We’ve been…busy in home. I’ll make up to her. And…thank you for defending us back then.” When Lori tried to make them break up, Bobby stood up for them, successfully calming the beast.
  1538.  
  1539. -“Hey, I want to make Lori happy. But screwing my own sister? That’s messed up, she understood my position”
  1540.  
  1541. -“Talking about Lori, have you seen anything ‘strange’ on her lately.” Lincoln remembered Lisa’s words about her big sister. Special case? He needed to go deeper. Santiago raised an eyebrow.
  1542.  
  1543. -“Strange?…I don’t think it’s strange, but every time I ask her about how is her family going, she gets flustered, saying something about your sisters, you being too naive and young and needing to be protected… She’s really concerned about you. Well, I know sisters can be…” Bobby paused for a long moment, like he was remembering something. He shook his head quickly resumed the dialogue; “but I think it’s a bit excessive! Hahaha.” He said with a forced smile. What Bobby said contrasted the image Lincoln had of his sister.
  1544.  
  1545. -“I see, thanks…By the way, do you know where all of these are?” Lincoln showed Bobby the list.
  1546.  
  1547. -“Mmmh, yeah, follow me. We’ll be done in a moment!”
  1548.  
  1549. Bags and bags were shoved into the van, they seemed endless. Buying for 13 people was sometimes a challenge. Bobby was helping Mrs. Loud and Lincoln with their task and with the effort of all, it was done in a few minutes. The Louds thanked Bobby for his help before he went back to work. Lincoln and his mother entered the Vanzilla and fastened their belts. Everything was settled to return home when Rita received a call. Lincoln didn’t pay much attention to the conversation, he had better things to think about, at least until his mother hanged the phone a bit annoyed.
  1550.  
  1551. -“Lincoln, I have to go elsewhere before going home, you can tag along or walk home.”
  1552.  
  1553. -“Mmmh, I think I’ll take a stroll.”
  1554.  
  1555. -“I’m sorry sweetie, I’ll make up to you.”
  1556.  
  1557. -“Don’t worry, mom”
  1558. The boy waved at the Vanzilla as it drifted away. He hoped the walk back at home would help him relax. He was tired and in need of more sleep. Yesterday was exhausting for him, physically and mentally. And today didn’t have a better start. Talking to Lisa only made him more outworn. He just wanted to hit the hay and sleep until the next day. While going back, he passed near a park, there where too many people there to his liking, but something stood up between everything that was there, at least, for him. In a football (or soccer, whatever) field there were some kids playing. In the distance, he could see a very well known figure for him leading one of the teams. Black hair, light brown skin, a purple sweater… he wanted to talk to her, but this wasn’t the moment. He quickly took a glance of another known figure leading the opposing team. White and red sweater, Brown hair and a ponytail.
  1559.  
  1560. -“Lynn? What the…? If dad finds out she… No, it’s her problem, not mine.”
  1561. Lincoln resumed his walking after looking one last time at Ronnie Anne. With what face could he talk to her now, after all he has done? Solving troubles, getting more. Such is life. It took him 25 more minutes to reach his house. He was walking straight to the principal door when something over the side roof of the house distracted him.
  1562.  
  1563. -“What the heck…?”
  1564.  
  1565. -40 minutes earlier.-
  1566.  
  1567. Luan and Luna just woke up. It was almost a miracle their oldest sisters screams didn’t interrupt their sleep. Luna was refreshed, she quickly got dressed and grabbed an electric guitar to practice a little before breakfast. Luan, on the other hand, had a gloomy face, she looked somewhat disappointed.
  1568.  
  1569. -“Any brilliant idea?” Luna asked tuning her instrument.
  1570.  
  1571. -“No… I’ve thought of everything: pies, water buckets, plastic wrap…nothing will do, they are too boring! This would be easier if I had my ‘tools’.”
  1572.  
  1573. -“Good luck, sis!”
  1574.  
  1575. -“Yeah…didn’t Dad forbid you playing that?”
  1576.  
  1577. -“Dad and mom are not home. They would have woken us earlier if they were.” She started playing something slow.
  1578.  
  1579. -“Guess you’re right." She sighed "I’ll go look for something in the house. I need ideas. Anything good. It can’t be that difficult!” Luan got dressed and left the room leaving Luna alone. At least she regained some of her energy.
  1580.  
  1581. -“This has aaaall the chances of ending badly, luv.”
  1582. Luan stormed down the stairs, went to the kitchen and ate something fast. Every single second was precious! On every step she took she examined her surroundings, hoping something would pop in her head, unfortunately, it didn’t work.
  1583.  
  1584. -“Come on, Luan, you’re good at this. Can’t block noooooow!”
  1585.  
  1586. -“Hey! Shut it, you’re interrupting us!” Lola’s yell was coming from the living room. She was getting her hair combed by Leni, still looking bothered for her early discussion with Lori. Lana was also there, playing with Geo.
  1587.  
  1588. -“Oh, excuse me, I didn’t ‘hair’ you! Hahaha, get it?” Lola facepalmed.
  1589.  
  1590. -“Is there something wrong, Luan?” Leni asked.
  1591.  
  1592. -“No…well yes, it’s…You know how it’s the situation between us and Lincoln, no?” the other three sisters blushed, the twins trying to hide their smiles.
  1593.  
  1594. -“Yeah.” Three voices, one answer.
  1595.  
  1596. -“Well I wanted to apologize to him, but with style, you know? I don’t want a half-heartedly ‘I’m sorry’, I want something personal, something that spells my name!”
  1597.  
  1598. -“You are going to prank him, aren’t you?” Lola stared at her, unamused.
  1599.  
  1600. -“Indeed! But it has to be the best thing I’ve ever done. The situation we are in is…complicated. I might screw up if I don't get it right”
  1601.  
  1602. -“If it helps you…” Lana interrupted “yesterday we had so much fun playing with mud in the yard. We were covered on it and he was laughing and I would say he was enjoying it as much as me. He may find funny something involving it.” Leni and Lola showed disgust at the idea of being covered in the mud under the rain.
  1603.  
  1604. -“Mud, huh?” she rubbed her chin. “mmmmhMMMH I like how you think Lana! It may do…but it’s outside…” even if her parents were not in the house, she was willing to fulfill the punishment they assigned to her. “I know!” She rushed upstairs, looking for the closest window to jump outside. Taking small steps over the roof, with extra caution. She didn’t want to have an accident and probably she shouldn’t be there in order to avoid one, but it was something she had to do. She got close enough to see a big puddle in the backyard.
  1605.  
  1606. -“Now that’s something!” Luan began to think ways of using it. She spent nearly 10 minutes on the roof, trying to form an idea. She had different things in mind, but when she tried to choose one, a voice called her name.
  1607.  
  1608. -“Luan? What are you doing up there?” The girl turned around to see her brother looking at her confused.
  1609.  
  1610. -“Oh, Linc-”
  1611. A bad step.
  1612.  
  1613. -“LUAN!”
  1614.  
  1615. Every second felt like an eternity. It wasn’t a big fall, but definitely, it was going to hurt. A lot. Luan thought while falling about everything that led to this situation and how easily it could have been avoided. But regretting now would do nothing. She closed her eyes, covered her head, and braced for impact. Even if the landing was on humid grass, at best, she will have one or two broken bones. At worst… *THUD!*.
  1616. She tried to move, arms, legs, body. Nothing hurt. While he was wondering how, her brother’s voice interrupted her thoughts.
  1617.  
  1618. -“LUAN! ARE YOU ALRIGHT?”
  1619. The boy was under her, holding her body with his arms, laying on the ground.
  1620.  
  1621. -“Lincoln! Did you try to catch me? Are YOU ok!?”
  1622.  
  1623. -“Yeah, it’s not like you weigh a lot. But when I grabbed you, well, I kinda lost balance. Hehehe.”
  1624.  
  1625. -“Y-you could have hurt yourself!”
  1626.  
  1627. -“Better than you getting hurt. Anyways, let’s make sure you are right.” Always thinking about others before himself. The boy stood up, lifting his sister in an impressive feat of strength for someone his age. Luan was speechless, enjoying the moment more than she should. The mood drastically changed when the boy took the first step. Lincoln bent his leg, unable to walk.
  1628.  
  1629. -“Heh. I think I hurt my ankle.” Both laughed it off.
  1630.  
  1631. -“Hahahaha…Don’t worry Linc, I have an idea.”
  1632. The main door of the house opened, capturing the glances of the three sisters in the living room. The three of them snickered at the sight of Lincoln hiding his face behind his hands while Luan carried, bridal style. The irony.
  1633.  
  1634. -“Hey Lincoln, are you comfortable?” The ruthless twin asked, trying to hold back her laughter.
  1635.  
  1636. -“It’s soooo romantic” Lola knew it. Being carried like a princess. Been there. Done that.
  1637.  
  1638. -“It’s so cute!” Leni was smiling at the sight… yet she felt a bit jealous.
  1639.  
  1640. -“Lincoln hurt his foot. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of everything!” the jokester and her brother went upstairs. The other sisters resumed their activities. The morning for them was boring so far, and now they couldn’t ask for their brother to do something with them. It was going to be a long day. Lincoln didn't say a thing until Luan was carrying him upstairs.
  1641.  
  1642. -“That was embarrassing…”
  1643.  
  1644. -“I've recorded more embarrassing things about you. I give this one a 6/10.”
  1645.  
  1646. -“Ha.Ha.Ha…Wait, where are we going?”
  1647.  
  1648. -“To my room, but of course. Luna can help! She used to take care of you when you were younger. She never left your side whenever you didn’t feel good…And whenever Lori let her do it… So I think…” They entered Luan and Luna’s room, only to see that the rocker wasn't there.
  1649.  
  1650. -“Perfect!” she said with frustration “Fine. I’ll do it myself! Rest a bit in my bed while I look for something.”
  1651. It’s been a while since Lincoln entered any of her sisters' room beside Lisa’s without any kind of uncertainty about what they could do to him. He was glad the things were returning slowly to normality, but he doubted ‘how’ they were doing so. If someone knew…his parents or the others…In the beginning, he tried to control it, but it was no longer in his hands.
  1652.  
  1653. -“Linc, I’m here.” She was carrying a bandage and a bag. She would love to have her robe and clown nose at this moment. It was the perfect chance! But unfortunately, they were taken away.
  1654.  
  1655. -“Luan, I think it’s a strain. I only need rest.”
  1656. -“No! I’m not risking it.” She started slowly bandaging the foot, knowing it was the moment to ask ‘the question’. She gathered all her strengths and formulated a question she never thought would be asking to her own brother.
  1657.  
  1658. -“Lincoln…are you scared of me?”
  1659.  
  1660. -“What? No!”
  1661.  
  1662. -“And of my pranks? My jokes?” As she finished covering up the foot, Lincoln remained silent. His previous reactions made clear what he thought about them. By instinct, he was avoiding Luan lately, and the pranks she always tried to do...and the sound that followed them.
  1663.  
  1664. -“These days…you were a bit more dangerous and offensive with your jokes...you know?”
  1665.  
  1666. -“Yeah… not nice from me. And I have to be honest with you…You are hurt now because I was trying to set up another one. But it was going to be different! You were going to see how fun pranks are supposed to be! But I messed up…like always.” She grabbed the bag and put it over Lincoln’s foot. Lincoln shivered at the contact. It was cold, so it was probably ice to help him heal the strain.“I’m sorry Lincoln, for everything…for this….”
  1667.  
  1668. -“Hey, this was just an accident and it wasn’t your fault. And about your pranks…they’ve never been exactly harmless, but at least you knew where the line was. Can they be like that again?”
  1669.  
  1670. -“I’ll do my best, Linc” she smiled timidly, positioning herself side by side with her brother.
  1671.  
  1672. -“And please, get rid of that stupid horn.”
  1673.  
  1674. -“HEY! IT’S NOT STUPID, IT’S…fine.”
  1675. She rested for a few minutes besides Lincoln. It felt so comfy. Being able to be near him without him trying to run away. She could be there forever. Her heart was beating so loudly, he could surely hear it. She could be with him forever…
  1676.  
  1677. -“L-Lincoln, are you feeling better?”
  1678.  
  1679. -“Mmmmh? yes, your bed it’s really comfy, and my foot almost doesn’t hurt anymore.” The boy was half sleep, oblivious to the obvious direction this was going.
  1680.  
  1681. -“Lincoln” she cooed “Do you know how it could feel even better?” she was carefully caressing his hair, making him go full aware.
  1682.  
  1683. -“Luan…you don’t have to…”
  1684. She had to. Slowly, her lips got closer and closer to Lincoln’s, until they gently touched. At first, he was a bit weirded with the taste of metal her braces left in his mouth, but quickly started to ignore it, going with the flow. After their tongues met inside their mouths a few more times, Luan deattached her mouth. A trail of saliva was hanging from it, directly to her brother’s.
  1685.  
  1686. -“How was it?” Lincoln didn't answer, but her flirtatious voice and timid smile proved she already knew how it felt. “Playing the silent game? Then hooooow I’m going to know if I’m doing it well?” she said mockingly as she started massaging his crotch. The boy let out small moans. He had been in this situation before, yet it felt so different every time. It was like a first time over and over again. Luan stopped for a moment, to strip her upper part. She quickly tossed away her shirt, but took her time to unhook her bra, teasing the boy. Even if Luan was the one dominating the situation, she was far more nervous than Lincoln who was kinda getting used to it. After all, it was Luan's first time doing this. When she finally took off the piece of cloth, she started trembling, looking away from her brother. After all open mic nights, after all the performances she had done, this was the first time when she was really nervous.
  1687.  
  1688. -“Wh-what do you think…?”
  1689. Not going to lie, there wasn’t much under the bra as she was still blooming, but it didn’t seem to trouble Lincoln. He had seen, touched and felt Leni’s, which were far larger, but there was something about them that had the boy hypnotized. Without saying a word, he reached one nipple with his mouth and playfully played with the other one with his hand.
  1690.  
  1691. -“Lincoln” she nagged “careful, be gentle…”
  1692. She resumed her massage in the boy’s low area, now feeling a bit different. Below the pants, his manhood was getting bigger and bigger. She unzipped the pants, to see her brother’s tool poking out. At the sight, she quickly repositioned, leaving Lincoln suctioning air, trying to reach his sister’s moving body with his mouth.
  1693.  
  1694. -“Don’t get needy, lil’ bro. We are getting to the main act.” Undressing her skirt and panties, she noticed how uneven she was with her brother. He was enjoying a full view when she only had seen the tip. “Come on, Linc. Let’s get equal.” He nodded. Still lying in Luan’s bed, he took off his polo, while Luan striped down the pants and underwear with vicious intent, letting on the floor the bag of ice that was resting on his foot. She didn’t know if it still hurt, but it wasn’t the moment to check it out. She was getting hasty, no longer in control of her own desires. She wanted it now. Ready to take off the underwear, an uneasy expression from Lincoln made her halt.
  1695.  
  1696. -“S-something wrong?”
  1697.  
  1698. -“No, no It’s just….” Lincoln looked at her blushing. Every time it was the same. He knew they shouldn’t be doing that. And yet, each time was harder and harder to avoid it. He strived for the love of his sisters, but the love they showed to him until they changed their behavior 2 months ago. Still, the love they were showing now…wasn’t that bad after all.
  1699.  
  1700. -“Everything’s going to be alright, Lincoln. Let’s keep going”
  1701. Lincoln tried to relax again. Well, most of his body. One part wasn’t going to get rest in a while. Luan slowly swung her body over Lincoln’s penis, rubbing it with her inferior lips everytime she got near it. There was something fun in tempting Lincoln: the struggle he felt, how he tried thrusting, without success. But it was enough, she wanted it as bad as him.
  1702.  
  1703. -“SURPRISE!” she yelled, dropping all her weigh on Lincoln, inserting his boner inside her. The pain was erased by the feeling of ecstasy she felt at the moment... Letting her tongue out, grasping for air, it was too much for Luan to handle all of the sudden. The boy wasn’t ready for it either, as a big moan escaped his lips when she descended. Luan didn’t think twice and began to move, leaving her brother in awe. He couldn't do anything, but to follow her lead.
  1704.  
  1705. -“I’m loving this bumpy-ride, hahaha” she said between huffs, moving her hands all over Lincoln’s torso, exploring every single gap. The boy retaliated, grabbing her sides, fondling her hips and legs. However, when he was going to reach her bottom with his hands, he drastically stopped. The sight of an uneasy expression Luan’s face changed again the pace of the situation.
  1706.  
  1707. -“W-wait Luan, I’m hurting you? You shoul-”
  1708.  
  1709. -“N-No, silly.” She said between moans “Don’t you see it? This is only happiness.” She leaned forward, leveling her face with Lincoln’s. “Now kiss me again” her tongue traveled all across Lincoln’s mouth once again. The boy went on and grabbed her butt, pressing it against him. The touch of her skin was charming, making him go faster. Luan kept working his mouth as she kept going back and forth on his log. The boy weakened the strength of his grip more and more each time he rubbed against his sister’s inner walls. The girl separated her mouth and placed her hands on his shoulders, looking at him straight in the eye without stopping her movements.
  1710. His face was so cute. His cheeks were crimson red. His eyes were fixed on hers. With his mouth ajar, he was letting out small moans each time he thrust, trying to reach again the lips he was tasting seconds ago.
  1711. What she was seeing, what she was feeling…something she wanted and thought would never get…it was heavenly. To feel her little brother inside her, pounding time after time. She wasn’t going to be able to hold it much longer.
  1712.  
  1713. -“…Lincoln…Lincoln” She repeated her name numerous times as she reached climax, and by his face, she could tell the white-haired boy was also getting near it.
  1714.  
  1715. -“L-Luan!”
  1716.  
  1717. -“YEEEESSSSS!?” she said with a high-pitched voice. Her face was the vivid image of joy. She got what she wanted. Her younger brother forgave her; she got to show her true feelings and everything went on perfectly. Her tribulations had ended. And the heavy burden on her shoulders was lifted. She squeezed her brother’s manhood with her insides as she reached the zenith of her orgasm, making him release his load without being able to do anything. For a second, he thought in the possible problems of doing so. Was it a dangerous day?
  1718. However, his tribulations quickly disappeared as the last drops of his seed were suctioned by Luan’s insides.
  1719. She rose up a bit her body to break the link between her and her white-haired brother. When she heard a wet pop, immediately fell down at his side. With her last strengths, she hugged her brother.
  1720.  
  1721. -“Thank you, Lincoln…”
  1722.  
  1723. -“Luan, this…This” He was interrupted by Luan’s snores. Their intercourse exhausted her and wasn’t able to keep herself awake. “Heh, I’m a bit tired too, you know?” with slow movements, he grabbed the messy blanket and covered himself and his companion, trying to not wake her up.
  1724. -“Five minutes can’t hurt…” the boy closed his eyes, enjoying the embrace his sister provided. When he reopened them, he could easily tell that a few hours had passed. Lincoln quickly darted his eyes across the room. The first thing he saw, was Luan sleeping beside him, the second…
  1725.  
  1726. -“Sup, bro. Enjoyed the nap?”
  1727. Lincoln desperately tried to wake Luan. They were in deep trouble.
  1728.  
  1729. -“Luan, move, this is serious!”
  1730.  
  1731. -“Nmnnmh, five more minutes.”
  1732.  
  1733. -“Luan!”
  1734.  
  1735. -“Linc, why ar- EEEEEEP!” When she managed to open her eyes, didn’t expect what was in front of her. Of them. She covered herself how she could at the sight of her older sister.
  1736.  
  1737. -“Well, now that you two are awake, care to explain me this?” She had a carefree tone. Her head resting in her arms, crossed over the back of the chair she was sitting on. Lincoln and Luan couldn’t talk, looking down, filled with embarrassment. The girl covering her face. What could they say?
  1738.  
  1739. -“Lu-Luna, this-” Lincoln gulped.
  1740.  
  1741. -“Bro, don’t tell me ’this isn’t what it looks like’ or ‘it’s not what you think’. I’ve heard them lots of times from mom and dad.”
  1742.  
  1743. -“Bu- wait, mom and dad?”
  1744.  
  1745. -“Well, there’s a reason you bunch are in this world, and I assure you the reason isn’t a freakin’ stork. And now, stop avoiding my question.”
  1746.  
  1747. -“Luna, it’s-”
  1748. -“Hush Luan, I want him to speak.” Lincoln swallowed. It wasn’t only him the one in danger. On his words rested Luan’s fate as well. He could only tell what really happened.
  1749.  
  1750. -“Luna…Luan and I have done... this thing, and-”
  1751.  
  1752. -“And you know how that ‘thing’ is called?”
  1753.  
  1754. -“S-sex…”
  1755.  
  1756. -“Correct. Now, answer my question. What have you done?”
  1757.  
  1758. -“Luna you are making this more difficult. Just-” Lincoln stopped Luan, looking at her with a secure expression. He still wasn’t sure of what he was going to say but had to do it.
  1759.  
  1760. -“I’ve…had… I’ve had sex with Luan.”
  1761.  
  1762. -“Yep, that’s what I thought.” Luna got up, grabbed their clothes and handed them to her siblings. “Cover your shame.” While Luan and Lincoln were dressing up, Luna was looking through her clothes, whistling, like the thing she discovered wasn’t important. The half-naked siblings looked at each other awkwardly, but somewhat happy it wasn’t scaling further. Lincoln gathered enough courage to ask Luna.
  1763.  
  1764. -“W-What are you going to do? Are… are you mad at us?”
  1765.  
  1766. -“Mmmh? Me? Nah, don’t sweat it. But I thought you were smarter, Lincoln. I expected Luan getting caught doing something like this, not you.”
  1767.  
  1768. -“Hey! What do you mean!?”
  1769. -“We’ve been sharing a room for too long, sis. You know perfectly what I mean.” Luan blushed one more time. “Aren’t you hungry?” Luna changed completely the subject. “You’ve skipped lunch.”
  1770.  
  1771. -“Lunch? For how long have we’ve been sleeping?”
  1772.  
  1773. -“It’s…16:21. We ate a bit after your incident outside. How’s your foot?” If Luna hadn’t reminded him, he would have forgotten about that. It didn’t hurt anymore.
  1774.  
  1775. -“You saw it, huh? I’m fine. Luan helped me.”
  1776.  
  1777. -“I don’t want details on how you two got in the bed.” Luna said, with joking intent. The other two smiled, insecure if they should do it. “Anyways, a few things happened when you were sleeping. I had to make sure no one else entered our room, Luan. You are lucky I was the first to find you. Aside from Lori, I had no problem fending away the others.”
  1778.  
  1779. -“Lori?” Luan asked.
  1780.  
  1781. -“She wanted to watch some of your tapes. Yesterday’s ones, specifically. I managed to not let her enter. I think she’s mad at me now. At least Leni won’t have to face her alone now. Hahaha.”
  1782.  
  1783. -“Heh, luck with that. Dad made me give him all the cameras.”
  1784.  
  1785. -“The ones he knew existed. Don’t play dumb with me, sis.” Lincoln knew why Lori wanted to see those recordings and wondered how many of his ‘deeds’ were captured by them. He had to talk with Luan about that later. “Also, Lynn, can’t leave her bedroom. Dad arrived home before her and got caught when she was trying to enter through the back door when she returned from wherever she was. Unlucky her. He left again shortly after that… Oh, and why there was a soaked bag at the end of your bed? I had to clean a mess while trying to not wake you up.”
  1786.  
  1787. -“Oh, yeah, that. My fault, hehehe.” Lincoln and Luan’s stomachs roared, interrupting the conversation. As Luna pointed, it had been a while since they last ate something.
  1788.  
  1789. -“Your lunch is in the fridge. Go get it.” Luan left the room without hesitation. She wanted to get out of there and resume the talk with Luna at another time when she felt calmer. The rocker girl resumed the search in her wardrobe, but Lincoln remained there. He had something more to say.
  1790.  
  1791. -“Luna…”
  1792.  
  1793. -“Hey, you’ve been quite silent for a while. What is it?.” Luna stopped for a second.
  1794.  
  1795. -“…Thanks for covering us…No…for saving us. I’m s-”
  1796.  
  1797. -“Stop it. I’m the one who must apologize. I’ve said and done pretty mean things to you these weeks.”
  1798.  
  1799. -“But, after all, I’ve done, after…”
  1800.  
  1801. -“Bro, I can’t say what Luan and you did is good. But I also think there are things far worse out there. The question I made you answer before, was to make sure she didn’t force you or anything like that, to make sure you knew what was going on. Sometimes you are too nice for your own good. Makes us think that people could try to take advantage of you. Know what I’m trying to say?”
  1802.  
  1803. -“I…I think I understand.”
  1804.  
  1805. -“Now, c’mere!” In a quick movement, she lifted the boy and hugged him, and started to violently rub his head.
  1806.  
  1807. -“Noooo, this is embarrassing!” He said laughing. After struggling a bit, he got free from her sister grip. “Thanks, Luna, I owe you one!” The boy left the room running like Luan did before.
  1808.  
  1809. -“I’ll remember that! And now go eat something, you must be starving!” After the bonding time, Luan returned to her thoughts, examining her clothes.
  1810.  
  1811. -“Embarrassing? After what you’ve been through, that’s what you find embarrassing? You truly are naive, Lincoln… And after all we’ve done, you are still the one apologizing…Lincoln, Lincoln, Lincoln…You remind me of a certain someone…” she stopped shuffling the clothes when she saw her old attire. The one she used to wear before her drastic turn. The one she wore the day her life changed. She kept it to not forgive who she was once, and who she was now. She unhung it, looking at it closely.
  1812.  
  1813. -“A certain someone I know well…” She licked her lips. “Let’s have some fun.”
  1814.  
  1815. When leaving Luna and Luan’s room, Lincoln saw Lola and Lana in the hall, standing, with sunglasses covering their eyes. The boy had an idea why they were there, but he asked anyways.
  1816.  
  1817. -“Hey girls.” His voice startled them a bit. They didn’t know where their brother had been for hours, so his sudden presence was a surprise. “What are you doing?”
  1818.  
  1819. -“We’re making sure Lynn doesn’t leave the house again.” Lola answered.
  1820.  
  1821. -“Yeah, dad’s orders.”
  1822.  
  1823. -“She brought this upon herself.” Lincoln thought to himself “I don’t bother you anymore then, continue the good job.” The boy ruffled the twins hairs at which they blushed timidly. The contact with their brother reassured them to an extent no other thing could compare. Lincoln waved goodbye to his sisters and spent no more time on the second floor. He continued his way to the kitchen realizing Luna was right, he was hungry as hell. But to reach his newfound objective he’ll have to get past the living room, place where Lori was now. He tried to make as little noise as possible, but years of Lori taking care of her other siblings, especially Lucy, gave her an above average hearing.
  1824.  
  1825. -“If you think you are a master of stealth, you are wrong.”
  1826.  
  1827. -“AAAH! I mean, hi Lori, didn’t know you were there.”
  1828.  
  1829. -“Sure.” She was serious, but at least, not rageful like this morning. “Come here, I have a few questions for you.” The girl was looking at her phone, swiping the screen with her finger. How important could it be if she wasn’t even bothering in looking at him? Unfortunately, he knew t was important, and for the wrong reasons. As Lincoln stood in front of his sister, a loud gulping sound echoed through the room. He was never ready to face his sister.
  1830.  
  1831. -“Booby has texted me…Hmph, seems you get to see my boyfriend more than me these days. Tell me, do you think I’m acting “strangely”?” Dang it, Bobby.
  1832.  
  1833. -“Y-you are being more authoritarian than ever these days and-”
  1834.  
  1835. -“Authoritarian? You think I’m being… “authoritarian”. Caring for all of you and trying you don’t make any stupidity is called BEING AUTHORITARIAN.” Lori reached her limit faster than usual. For the second time in the day, she was on the verge of exploding. “I WORRY ABOUT ALL OF YOU! I DO MY BEST FOR YOU, BUT YOU ONLY SEE ME AS SOME KIND OF MONSTER!”
  1836.  
  1837. -“For 2 months you haven’t…” The boy muttered looking at the floor. After glancing up, he wished he had thought his words twice. Lori twitched her head to the side, gritting her teeth, giving Lincoln a petrifying gaze.
  1838.  
  1839. -“Come again!?” Lori heard her brother perfectly. She was giving him a second chance, one to rethink his words, but even if the white-haired boy wanted to change his poor choice of words, he didn’t. He said it, he meant it and retracting wouldn’t do a thing. With some regret, Lincoln reaffirmed his last sentence.
  1840.  
  1841. -“You’ve been treating me horrible these last months! The others apologized!” some of them at least, he thought. “But you? What about you?”
  1842.  
  1843. -“You think 2 months is a long time!? How about years!? HOW ABOUT A LIFETIME OF HAVING TO BE THE RESPONSIBLE ONE, THE ONE OTHERS LOOK UP TO!? YEARS OF RELINQUISHING EVERYTHING FOR YOUR GREATER GOOD!? YEARS OF RESTRAINING THE THING I WANTED MOST FOR-” Lori stopped in her tracks as she saw her brother stepping back. She was trying her best to not let her wrath take control, and she was failing. The oldest sibling held her breath for a few seconds and resumed the one-sided conversation “You don’t know anything, Lincoln. I care about you, more than anything, but you turn a blind eye to it.” Lincoln tried to find the words to rebut his sister’s speech, to reinforce his own argument, but it was useless. Before he could think of something, Lori resumed her assault.
  1844.  
  1845. -“Want me to show how much I care about you? Then answer this, where have you been these past hours? I looked for you everywhere, but you literally vanished. I’m supposed to take care of my siblings, but all of you disappear whenever you want. What if mom or dad return? What I’m I supposed to tell them if you’re not here?…Answer me Lincoln.” In a place she must never know, doing something he probably should’ve never done. He didn’t know what to say. Tell her he’s been in the house the whole time? She’ll ask “where” again. Tell her he’s been with one of their sisters? That will put the chosen one in serious troubles. Tell her the truth? Bad, bad idea.
  1846.  
  1847. -“Answer me!”
  1848.  
  1849. -“He was with me!” Luan appeared from the kitchen, with a dish full of food in her hands, to the rescue. However, Lincoln processed what Luan said and if it was a good idea saying it, as she basically put a noose around her neck.
  1850.  
  1851. -“WITH YOU!?” Lori eyes instantly showed her rage. Did Luan just admit what she’s been trying to avoid for months right to her face?
  1852.  
  1853. -“Yes. He hurt himself while saving me. Here, have this Lincoln.” Luan handed him the plate and a fork.
  1854.  
  1855. -“Uh, thanks.” The hectic conversation didn’t eliminate the fact that Lincoln was still hungry.
  1856.  
  1857. -“Hurt? Saving you?” Lori demeanor drastically changed. Luan lifted Lincoln’s pants left leg to show her the bandage. The pain faded away long ago and he even forgot he was wearing it, but that little thing saved the whole day.
  1858.  
  1859. -“A bandage!? What happened!? It’s something serious? We must-”
  1860.  
  1861. -“Lori, I’m fine! I’m old enough to take care of myself!”
  1862.  
  1863. -“…Finish that in the kitchen.” Lori dragged her feet across the room until she was outside it. She trusted almost no one at the moment, but for the first time since everything started, felt like she was overdoing it. She needed to empty her head for a while, even if that meant not obtaining the answers she’s been longing for.
  1864.  
  1865. -“Thanks, Luan.”
  1866.  
  1867. -“Always happy to lend a helping foot.” Lincoln looked at his sister unamused. Not because of the "pun", but because of what she said before “I know, I’m getting rusty.”
  1868.  
  1869. -“It’s not the pun, Luan. What made you think it was a good idea to tell Lori that?”
  1870.  
  1871. She scratched her head, offering him a kind smile. “You needed some help, and as you saved my life before, felt like I had to return the favor.” Luan carefully grabbed Lincoln’s head and softly pressed her lips against his forehead as thanks. Lincoln didn’t understand this, he should be the one thanking her, but it was like the jokester felt she was still in debt with him. She separated and addressed the boy. “I’ll be in my room for a while, in case you need something more, I only hope Luna’s not there.” She turned around and went upstairs, leaving a confused Lincoln alone with his thoughts. He followed Lori’s advice and went to the kitchen to finish his meal. After hours without eating anything, it tasted like heaven. He left the dish in the sink and prepared to go to his room.
  1872.  
  1873. -“Hi, Lincoln”
  1874.  
  1875. -“Ghghsgs” He almost choked, still trying to swallow the meal. “Lucy!” he said between coughs “don’t do that! I told you many times!”
  1876.  
  1877. -“Sorry.” Usually, that answer sounded like a mechanical response, something she had to say but never truly felt. This time, she was sincere about it.
  1878.  
  1879. -“It’s okay. You wanted something?”
  1880.  
  1881. -“Amusement. I can’t go to my dark places, and in my room, Lynn was exhausting my patience.”
  1882.  
  1883. -“Yeah, she’s plainly annoying when she wants.” Lucy got closer and hugged him from the side, burrowing her face on his shirt.
  1884.  
  1885. -“Brother, when can we be together again?” Lincoln took his time to answer, thinking. “Again”... Should I’ve been with you the first time? With any of them? He didn’t feel regret. but doubts. The lines of right and wrong were slowly getting blurred on his head.
  1886.  
  1887. -“I don’t know, Luce. Things are…weird right now.” the goth smiled at his words.
  1888.  
  1889. -“It’s been a while since you called me that.” Happiness could be sensed in her words. It wasn’t usual, but that was the effect her brother had in her. Lincoln returned a heartwarming smile that reached the depth of her black hearth. “I’ll be waiting for when you are prepared again. I know it’ll be soon” She left the kitchen after caressing his cheek with a gentle maneuver. Her destination? Only she knew.
  1890.  
  1891. -“I think I’m also going to my room.” The boy didn’t have many choices, so it’d be better to have a peaceful time surrounded by his belongings. Going upstairs, he saw the twins were no longer guarding the door of Lynn’s room. Crashing sounds could be heard from the inside. Seemed that Lynn convinced them to make her confinement more entertaining. The boy felt bad for Lucy and all she had to deal with. Now in his room, hoping to have some time alone, he started searching for something to read, something he hadn’t read more than 5 times, but a voice outside interrupted him.
  1892.  
  1893. -“Lincoln, may I come in?” The voice sounded shy…and forced.
  1894.  
  1895. -“Luna? Sure, just leeeeEEEEEH?”
  1896. Luna looked completely different from her usual self. Lincoln recognized the outfit she was wearing from photos when she was younger. It was the same outfit because Luna had clearly outgrown it. It was small, VERY small, leaving almost nothing to the imagination. He could see her slender legs and her slim belly with perfect ease, some freckles here and there. The upper part enhanced her breasts. Lincoln always thought Luna was kinda flat, but at that moment he was proved wrong. Even if they weren’t exactly big, there was something worth mentioning there.
  1897.  
  1898. -“Lincooooooln” saying his name, Luna’s game of pretending started “Earlier I saw you naked with Luaaaan. What were you doiiiiing?” Her mocking tone was still trying to be innocent, but it sounded way more flirty now.
  1899.  
  1900. -“L-Luna wha-what are you wearing? What’s all this about?”
  1901.  
  1902. -“I don't know what you meaaaan, lil’ brooooo.” This was getting weird, in a sexy way, but weird nonetheless. “You’re not gonna to answer meeee?” She got close too his ear and whispered, with a soothing voice, word for word “I. Thought. You. Owed. Me. One.”
  1903.  
  1904. Lincoln analyzed the whole situation. His sister was in the room, with her old clothes on, feigning ignorance about what happened before with his other sister, pretending she doesn’t know what was going on…Yes, it was disturbing.
  1905.  
  1906. -“Y-yeah, I said so, b-but…”
  1907.  
  1908. -“Theeeeen I want you to tell me what were you doing.” She tried to make an innocent impersonation, but it sounded lustful instead. The girl truly needed to get some acting lessons if she wanted to pull out something like this "Go ahead." Lincoln couldn’t believe he had to this again, so better do it fast.
  1909.  
  1910. -“I t-told you before. Luan and I had s-sex.”
  1911.  
  1912. -“No, no, no.” Luna shook her head, interrupting her little brother “I want more details” Lincoln was getting uncomfortable with Luna’s performance, mostly because it was arousing him. “Start again.”
  1913.  
  1914. -“…I was on the bed…when Luan k-kissed me.”
  1915.  
  1916. -“Like this?” Luna pounced unto her brother and started to devour his mouth, twirling her tongue against his. Definitely, it wasn’t like Luan’s kisses, nor like any of his other sisters. After a few seconds, she gave the boy some space. “Continue.” She said with a grin, as her brother tried to provide his lungs some air.
  1917.  
  1918. -“S-she removed her shirt and bra…”
  1919.  
  1920. -“Oh…but I can’t do that…” Effectively, she couldn’t do that, mostly because when she removed her shirt, it was revealed she was wearing no bra at all. “Am I doing it wroooong?” Again, that mocking tone. Lincoln felt blood rush to his face, making him blush profusely. Nervously, Lincoln continued his ‘story’.
  1921.  
  1922. -“Then I-I sucked her-”
  1923.  
  1924. -“That sounds booooriiing. Can’t we get to the “part”?” She asked, swaying her body from side to side. Lincoln, hypnotized by the movement, didn’t answer until Luna snapped her fingers.
  1925.  
  1926. -“Ah!R-right. She took off her skirt and-and her panties.”
  1927.  
  1928. -“So…she showed you THIS?” Luna lifted her skirt, and like before, nothing else below. Now the boy’s blood was leaving his face rushing to another place. She spread her inferior lips with her fingers. Lincoln’s eyes were nailed, watching with perfect detail a stairway to heaven. Without giving him time to react, Luna turned around and bent over. “Or maybe she showed this one?” Lincoln’s eyes widened even more. He never saw it so close, and the boy could only conclude one thing, Luna had a big bottom. You can thank genetics for that. Her playful voice conflicted with the sight she offering her brother, playfully grabbing her own asscheeks “But, Liiiinc, I saw you had no pants ooooon… Are we getting to that soon?” In a flash, Luna grabbed the zipper of his pants and pulled down. Lincoln covered the erection trying to escape his undies in a futile effort. His jeans were now on his ankles, and his underwear followed shortly., revealing his member standing tall.
  1929.  
  1930. -“Lincoln.” She said in a more aggressive tone. Games were over. Both of them wanted and she was going to please their desires. “Do it!”
  1931. Grabbing her hips, with a quick thrust, Lincoln shoved his manhood into Luna’s ass. At least this time he didn’t need to make sure an ‘accident’ wouldn’t happen. Luna’s legs trembled, seems that taking the rear entrance so suddenly was a bit shocking, but she turned the odds in her favor again pushing Lincoln to the ground with her butt. The boy was now sitting on the floor and the only thing he could see was Luna’s back and it’s jiggly end, going up and down again and again. Lincoln nailed his fingers around her waist, going along with her rhythmic movements, but Luna wasn’t fond of this, as she had a way better idea.
  1932.  
  1933. -“Bro, you can grab a bit higher, you know?” she said, holding back her moans. Hesitating for a moment, the white-haired boy raised his arms and grabbed his sister’s breasts. Luna bit her lips as Lincoln started playing with her nipples. “Yeah, that’s the stuff!” Lincoln leaned his head against her back as she fastened her pace. The sensation was indescribable. The back door surely felt completely different from the main entrance. It was overwhelmingly tighter, something Lincoln could barely handle. It’s been only minutes since they started and he was already at his limit.
  1934.  
  1935. -“L-Luna. I can’t hold it anymore!” Luna stopped for a moment and looked back. She had a maniac grin adorning her face. Lincoln shivered at the sight.
  1936.  
  1937. -“Oh, yes you CAN!” Luna moved her body to end face to face with Lincoln. Without pulling out. Lincoln could feel how his staff twisted inside the rocker and the pain of doing so. Lincoln’s scream was muffled by Luna’s hand, who could barely hold her hussy laughter after feeling Lincoln’s body twitching.
  1938.  
  1939. -“How has that been, luv?”
  1940.  
  1941. -“IT HURTS! WHAT THE HELL LUNA!”
  1942.  
  1943. -“Sssssh. Don’t raise your voice.” She said with a wide smile. “You still feeling like you have to finish?” Lincoln didn’t know what hurt more, his member or having to admit that Luna was right. He glared at his sister, who brought her face closer to his in response.
  1944.  
  1945. -“And now what?” she asked with a smug look. Lincoln took the initiative for the first time since Luna started her performance and shoved his tongue into her mouth. Luna let him have some fun as she started moving her body again. Lincoln whimpered as his manhood still hurt, but continued his duty. Luna placed one hand on the back of his head and with the other, guided her brother’s fingers into her cooch. Lincoln separated to look what Luna was doing with his hand, and she could see it clearly, why he loved Lincoln so much.
  1946. Luna knew what they were doing and it’s implications, and how not many would understand it, but it’s what she, what they wanted. And with everything, her little brother still had an aura of innocence around him. The little noises he was doing, all the effort he was putting into this, his willingness to go with her ‘till the end, to forget everything… She waited long enough to have this.
  1947. Her daydreaming was cut short as Lincoln spoke up.
  1948.  
  1949. -“Luna, it’s coming out again.” He said with a thread of voice. She put one finger on his lips and requested him something.
  1950.  
  1951. -“Hang on, Linc. Do your best, do it for me.” Luna kissed again the boy, but this time, it was more caring. The boy did his best to not bust his load and went on for some minutes more, moving his fingers at the cadence his sister was marking. The pain of what Luna did, the frustration of holding back and the pleasure mixed on his face. Luna could tell it was too much for the white-haired boy, and she thought he looked adorable. Everything he was doing for her, it was too cruel to let him suffer, so she decided to let her brother release his seed, after all, it’s not like it was the last time they were going to do it, she was going to make sure that.
  1952.  
  1953. -“Lincoln…do it” The boy closed his eyes and released various volleys of sperm inside Luna’s ass. She pressed his head against his chest as he discharged everything. At the moment he finished, a sensation of relief took over his body. Lincoln’s body plummeted completely to the floor, unable to hold himself up. Luna stood up as soon as she felt the sound of her brother crashing on the ground.
  1954.  
  1955. -“You ok, bro? Seems it was a tad too much for you.”
  1956.  
  1957. -“I don’t understand about the clothes. It was weird.” He said with some difficulties, as he tried to rise his body.
  1958.  
  1959. -“Can’t tell me it wasn’t fun.” she said laughing. “Besides… that wasn’t the weirdest thing happening.”
  1960.  
  1961. -“…I know, but-”
  1962.  
  1963. -“Look Lincoln, I didn’t get mad at you and Luan because…well, I would’ve been a hypocrite. I… also wanted it.” Luna helped her brother to stand up. “And I tried to fight it, deny it, because it was wrong. But it became uncontrollable, don’t know how to describe it. Before I knew it, I HAD to be with you…Heh, it's a bit stupid, don't you think?." A single tear fell off her face, still smiling. Lincoln moved his body with his last batch of strength and embraced Luna. “Lincoln... We’re half naked, this is embarrassing” Both chuckled at the statement, but the boy didn’t release his grip. It wasn’t like Luna didn’t enjoy it after all.
  1964.  
  1965. -“Never change, Linc. Doesn’t matter what others say or think. We’ll be always there for you as you are for us”
  1966.  
  1967. -“Thanks, Luna.”
  1968.  
  1969. -“By the way… can I ask you a favor?
  1970.  
  1971. -“Uuuuuuh...What kind of favor?”
  1972.  
  1973. -“Please, put your pants and bring me some clothes of my actual size…I forgot them in my room and I don’t want the others seeing me like this.”
  1974.  
  1975. Lincoln looked at both sides of the hall, making sure no one was there and made a signal to indicate Luna it was safe to get out. She quickly headed to the bathroom, with her current clothes barely covering her skin, clutching onto the ones Lincoln carefully grabbed from her room without anyone noticing. Before entering the bathroom, she thanked her lil’ brother with a quick peck on the lips.
  1976.  
  1977. -“Now I’m the one who owes you.” She whispered with a mischievous grin.
  1978. When the door was finally locked and it was safe for them, Lincoln exhaled with relief. Once again he avoided further complications, but that calm didn’t last long, as Lori slammed open the door of her room. Lincoln, expecting another round of verbal assault, avoided looking at her, but the eldest sister just passed him by, going downstairs.
  1979.  
  1980. -“…Lori” She stopped at his words. Lincoln wondered if this was one of those situations where keeping your mouth shut was the right choice.
  1981.  
  1982. -“If you have nothing important to tell me, don’t talk to me again. Got it?”
  1983.  
  1984. -“But-”
  1985.  
  1986. -“’But, but’” Lori was having none of it. “I told you clearly, didn’t I? Weren’t you ‘old enough’ to ignore your sister’s annoying concern? Huh? AREN’T YOU OLD ENOUGH TO-! ”
  1987.  
  1988. -“LORI LOUD!” Mama Loud shouted from the first floor as soon as she heard Lori’s tone getting more aggressive. In a matter of seconds, she was upstairs with both siblings “Why are you screaming at your brother?”
  1989.  
  1990. -“Tsk.” Lori continued her way. Lincoln felt guilty about how he answered Lori before, but he was right, he wasn’t a kid anymore...or at least it’s how he felt Too many things took place, it was no longer the same.
  1991.  
  1992. -“What happened, Lincoln?” Rita asked her only son.
  1993.  
  1994. -“…Nothing. It was my fault.”
  1995.  
  1996. -“Lincoln, don’t try to cover her if she did something wrong. They know perfectly why they are in the situation they are, so if she-”
  1997.  
  1998. -“No, mom. Really. It’s nothing.”
  1999.  
  2000. -“Alright sweetie” she sighed “I can’t believe how much your sister has changed over the years. You two used to be so close… Anyways, tonight I’ll go out and I won’t be back until late, so you’ll have to order some food.
  2001.  
  2002. -“Sweet!” the boy said with an unusual burst of energy, one that quickly faded when he realized something “But…guess I’ll have to ask the girls what the want.”
  2003.  
  2004. -“I’ve been thinking, and after what happened this morning and…all these weeks, you get to choose, but don’t tell your sisters” she said, winking at his son.
  2005.  
  2006. -“Pizza!” he exclaimed without hesitation.
  2007.  
  2008. -“Then it’s decided!” the mother added with the same energy his son was showing for the first time in days “I’ll give you the Money before I go, sweetie.” She leaned and gave her baby a kiss on the cheek, to what he reciprocated. Seeing his boy in such a good mood filled her with joy. Finally, everything was returning to normal. After thanking his mother for letting him choose, he ran into his room, more specifically, to his bed. He could barely wait for the night, and it was a safe bet. Everyone in the house loved pizza, from the Lisa to Lori…Lori…
  2009. The happiness of the white-haired boy rapidly shifted as he remembered his mother’s words: “I can’t believe how much your sister has changed over the years. You two used to be so close…” every single confrontation he and his sisters have had with Lori and the reasons behind it crossed his mind. He shook his head, but it reverberated inside his brain. As time passed, older memories kept resurfacing, making the boy feel guiltier. Even if there was no one to blame for what he was doing with some of his own sisters, he couldn’t ignore what he was doing to Lori. She was right about everything, but he couldn’t admit it, for their own good.
  2010. How their relationship became so tainted? With all his rambling, a story popped back to his mind, a story he has heard countless times from different people: Mom, dad, Leni, Luna…but never from Lori. The story of his first days, his first years as a member of the Loud house.
  2011.  
  2012. Lincoln Loud was born weeks before it was due. It’s not an uncommon thing, but he was too small and weak. The doctors feared for his life, so he was out in an incubator for a month, until he was no longer in danger. However, his body reacted strangely to the this, or at least, it’s what the doctors thought. The small amount of hair he had adopted a rather peculiar color, white as snow.
  2013. After some tests, the doctors concluded that the impromptu change of color, even if rare, was a side effect without importance and the baby wasn’t in danger. The little boy was handed to his parents without more delay, he was ready to take on the world.
  2014. When Lynn Sr. and Rita arrived home, there were 5 impatient girls at the windows looking at them with an old man trying his best to control them. As they stepped inside the house, the girls surrounded their parents, showing their excitement to different extents. Rita thanked her father for taking care of her daughters, but Albert, didn’t answer. He went directly to see what Rita was holding. The old man couldn’t avoid shedding a tear at the sight of his grandson. Lynn Sr. placed his hand on his father-in-law's shoulder and smiled, then both moved away so Rita could introduce the 5 fretful little girls the newest member of the family.
  2015.  
  2016. -“Why doesn’t he move?” Luan asked.
  2017.  
  2018. -“He’s sleeping, so don’t raise your voice.” Rita answered in a calmer tone.
  2019.  
  2020. -“I like his hair, it’s like pop-pop’s! Can I brush it?” Leni had her priorities clear.
  2021.  
  2022. “Not yet, you’ll have to wait until he grows up.” Lynn Sr. said to his daughter
  2023.  
  2024. -“Uh…have you thought of a name?” Luna shyly asked.
  2025.  
  2026. -“Lincoln…Lincoln Loud…do you like it?” Four of the girls nodded, while the other one tried to snatch the baby from her mother’s arms.
  2027. -“Lincoln, play with me!” Lynn babbled with some difficulties, grabbing the towel that wrapped the baby. Fortunately, Albert was fast enough to grab her and put her on his shoulders, avoiding any possibility of having an accident.
  2028.  
  2029. -“Not yet Lynn, he can barely move! I’m sure he’ll be eager to play with you all the time when he grows a bit.”
  2030. Lynn pouted as pop-pop separated her from the baby. It was better that way, as the three adults in the room knew she was going to try to get him again. Rita turned her head to the only one of her daughters that didn’t say a thing since the baby entered the house.
  2031.  
  2032. -“Something wrong, Lori? You don’t want to see your brother?” Rita asked the eldest sister as she slowly got closer. She was certainly curious, and her mother could tell, as the little girl’s eyes were nailed on her baby brother, but she was going through a "phase".
  2033.  
  2034. -“I’ve seen this 4 times already, I know what to do.” Lori said confidently.
  2035.  
  2036. -"So, you remember when you were 1 year old and I brought Leni home for the first time?"
  2037.  
  2038. -"Yes, I do!"
  2039.  
  2040. -“I see...”Rita said with a disappointed tone. Since Lori started school, she was trying to act more like a grown-up, Like she had something to prove. “Girls, I’m taking Lincoln. He needs to rest, so don't make any noise” The girls groaned, but obeyed.
  2041. After a few days, the initial impact cooled a bit. The girls were pending of Lincoln, but their interest quickly decreased as the newborn did almost nothing, besides sleeping and getting nursed. He didn’t even cry, his presence was silent, almost as if he wasn’t in the room. Everyone in the family didn’t give it importance, everyone but Lori. Lynn Sr. and Rita were thankful for finally having a calm baby, but to their first daughter, it was strange, strange because all her younger sisters cried every single day for whatever reason, and loved getting attention. With some doubts, she decided to ask her mother about the baby. The little blonde got near the couch her mother was sitting on and asked.
  2042.  
  2043. -“Mom… could it be that there’s something wrong with Lincoln?”
  2044.  
  2045. -“What?” Rita asked, surprised at her daughter’s words “Why you think that?”
  2046.  
  2047. -“I don’t know. It’s just that Leni, Lynn, Luan and Luna were always crying or making some noise, but he-” Lori stopped when she saw Lincoln’s eyes open for the first time, looking directly at her.
  2048.  
  2049. -“The only difference is that he’s a boy and nothing else. Don’t worry about it.” As her mother was answering her question, she moved her hand towards Lincoln. It surprised her that when he was about to reach him, he grabbed one of her fingers with his tiny hand. Awwww, I think he likes you!” Rita said, pleased to see her children getting along. Lori believed what her mother said, after all, she knew more about how to take care of a baby than her. But at the moment she moved her hand away from Lincoln’s reach, it happened. An earth-breaking cry that could be heard all around the house. Lori flinched, unsure of what was happening while the other members of the family hurried to see what was making Lincoln cry.
  2050.  
  2051. -“What? I did something wrong? Mom!?” Lori was scared, spitting question after question, without any idea of what to do, until the matriarch of the Loud family intervened.
  2052.  
  2053. -“Sit by my side, Lori.” Lori wavered for a moment but did what Rita said. At the second Lori sat on the couch, her mother placed Lincoln on her trembling hands. The baby stopped crying almost instantly. “He only wants to be with his sister.” She pressed her baby brother against her body with extreme care, and in a matter of minutes, Lincoln was sleeping in her arms.
  2054.  
  2055. -“How peaceful he looks…” Rita smiled looking at her precious baby.
  2056.  
  2057. -“I-I don’t understand…Why?”
  2058.  
  2059. -“Because he knows you’re his sister. He knows you’ll be always there for him, and that you’ll protect him from any danger…Right?”
  2060.  
  2061. “I-I’ll do, I promise!” Lynn Sr. and the younger sisters quickly swarmed around Rita and Lori, to see if Lincoln was right, and he was, he has never been better in his short life. After that fateful moment, Lincoln started to behave like the idea Lori had of a normal baby, and she wanted to be with him whenever it was possible, to the point where if she was with Lincoln, she pushed her sisters aside if they were “too close” to. She followed her mother whenever she went if she was carrying her baby brother. Rita and Lynn Sr. found this cute, but the other sisters were annoyed by Lori’s actions, as they also wanted to be with their brother, but Lori was adamant about her actions. He NEEDED to be with her…
  2062. As Lincoln grew up, and with more and more people in the house, Lori learned to “share” her only brother with the others, after all, it was only a weird attachment that would disappear over time, right? It happened when Lori started high school, everything changed. Her relationship with her siblings, especially with Lincoln, took a drastic turn. Lori cared more about her new phone than about her family and began acting in a kinda demanding way, one that evolved to the “authoritarian” idea everyone has of her in the present.
  2063. And only she knows what made her behavior change. Rita and Lynn Sr. thought it was because she was at "that" age, but they felt there was something more…
  2064.  
  2065. -“Why did I have to remember that?” Lincoln scratched his head. Those days long went by, and remembering them won’t do any good. He sat on his bed as the door of his room opened.
  2066.  
  2067. -“Lincoln, sweetie” Rita went inside the room, leaving a bunch of cash on the desktop “I have to go. Have this, and don’t doubt calling me if something happens. And don’t tell your father that I left you bunch without my supervision, I don’t want things getting worse.” Lincoln nodded as his mother left the room. Already? Time sure flies when you are remembering better times. Watching the money left behind by his mother there was one thing for sure, dinner wasn’t going to be peaceful.
  2068.  
  2069. After a few strangely tranquil hours, the night was finally upon Royal Woods, and as Lincoln wanted, the family was going to have pizza for dinner. The delivery man left after another job well done (and being paid) leaving the white-haired boy with two boxes of pizza, ready to serve his family. 9 girls were waiting for their meal. The only sister who wasn’t there was Lynn, still stranded in her room, surprisingly obeying her father’s orders despite him not being there, probably because if she didn’t, a little tattletale would get her in trouble.
  2070. Lincoln opened one of the boxes to show 12 more or less equal slices. He left that box behind and left the other one on the kitchen toe at later. When he returned, 9 parts of the pizza disappeared.
  2071.  
  2072. -“Thanks for waiting.”
  2073.  
  2074. -“Too slow, bro.”
  2075.  
  2076. -“Don’t worry Linky, there’s enough for everyone.” Leni passed him the slice that was rightfully his, and analyzed the whole ordeal…Pizza, parents not in the house… it surely didn’t look like 10 members of that family were grounded. Lincoln shrugged and sat on the couch
  2077.  
  2078. -“Well, what are we watching?” He asked Lana, as she was holding the remote.
  2079.  
  2080. -“I don’t see anything interesting.”
  2081.  
  2082. -“I know! They’re broadcasting a re-run of ‘Aaargh!’. We can-”
  2083.  
  2084. -“No/poo-poo.” 8 people, same answer. The only one who didn’t show her disconformity with Lincoln’s choice was Lori, who was strangely quiet, and even more strangely, without her phone in her hands.
  2085.  
  2086. -“While you choose, I’m going for another slice.” Luan said as she went to the kitchen. The content of the other box would suffer the same fate as the first one.
  2087.  
  2088. -“I remind you that Lynn would probably be grateful if we took her correshponding shlicesh to her room.” Lisa reminded her siblings that not every sibling was in the room.
  2089.  
  2090. -“Damn, I forgot about her.” Lincoln put two slices in a box, but as he took the first step, Lori stood up and squeezed his hands, making him drop the box instantly. “Ouch! What the-?”
  2091.  
  2092. -“How thoughtful of you... but don’t worry, I’ll do it.” Lincoln’s hands felt numb as Lori released her grip. Lori picked up the box from the floor and went to Lynn’s room.
  2093.  
  2094. -“Lincoln, are you ok?” the twins rushed to see their brother’s hands, now redder than usual.
  2095.  
  2096. -“Yeah, yeah, it’s nothing…” Lana and Lola didn’t have time to release Lincoln’s hands before everyone could hear Lori yelling as she approached them.
  2097.  
  2098. -“…AND YOU GO TO BED WITHOUT DINNER, YOU UNGRATEFUL BRAT! HEAR ME!?” Lori screams where probably heard around all the neighborhood. She threw the box to the ground while covering her forehead with the other hand.
  2099.  
  2100. -“What happened up there?” Luna asked.
  2101.  
  2102. -“I ENTER HER ROOM TO GIVE HER THE PIZZA SLICES SHE LITERALLY DOESN’T FRIGGIN’ DESERVES AND RECEIVES ME THROWING A BOOT TO MY HEAD! Lori rage was palpable and the only thing reassuring everyone in the living room was that any of them caused her anger to appear. Lori went to Lisa and moved her hand from her forehead “Can you tell me how bad it is?”
  2103.  
  2104. -“You should look at your hand to know the anshwer.” She said without wavering
  2105.  
  2106. -“What? Oh...blood...” Lori fainted instantly.
  2107.  
  2108. -“Faschinating.”
  2109.  
  2110. -“LORI!”
  2111. -“Let her breath” Lisa began to take care of the situation without hesitation “Leni, Luna, carry her to my room. I’ll take care of thish.” Both sisters quickly followed Lisa’s orders. “Don’t worry, for what I shaw, it’sh only a cut. With shome resht, she’ll be perfectly fine tomorrow.” The others were still trying to understand what just happened.
  2112.  
  2113. -“I’ll give it a try.” Said Lincoln, looking if the content of the box was still edible.
  2114.  
  2115. -“Lori will get mad at you.” Lucy warned him.
  2116.  
  2117. -“So, the usual?” Lincoln retorted before going upstairs. His march towards Lynn’s room was interrupted by his concern of how his older sister was. He peeked inside Lisa’s room to see Lori laying on Lisa’s bed while Leni and Luna watched how the little genius some substance on the wound.
  2118.  
  2119. -“Is she okay?” the boy asked from the door.
  2120.  
  2121. -“What I shaid, jusht a cut. With thish it will heal fashter. Thanksh for your cooperance, shishtersh.”
  2122.  
  2123. -“No prob.”
  2124.  
  2125. -“Oh, and Lincoln” Lisa paused and looked both at Leni and Luna before gazing back at Lori and resuming her speech “shooner or later, she’ll find out. It’s in your hand how she doesh it.”
  2126.  
  2127. -“Find about what, Lisa?” Leni innocently asked.
  2128.  
  2129. -“It’ll better if we go with the others Leni.” Luna decidedly pushed Leni out of the room. For them, it wasn’t the moment to talk about that.
  2130.  
  2131. -“It’d be even better if everybody goesh to their roomsh, Luna!” Lisa yelled, making sure she heard her advice. “Nothing good will come for shtaying awake longer…” the genius went to the desk andd turne don heer computer, ignoring her brother, standing right behind her.
  2132.  
  2133. -“Lisa, what-”
  2134.  
  2135. -“Nothing of your concern” she cutted him short, knowing what he was going to ask. A stupid question of which he already knew the answer. She was taking notes of everything in that document he saw days ago, but…what was she writting on it? “Changing shubjectsh, what are you doing with that?” the scientist pointed at the box the white-haired boy was holding.
  2136.  
  2137. -“Dang it! I almost forgot!”
  2138.  
  2139. -“That’sh for Lynn I shuposhe…Even after sheeing what she did to Lori, you’re entering the beasht’s den with nothing but a cardboard box. Brave, and shtupid. I wish you good luck.”
  2140.  
  2141. -“I’m gonna need it”
  2142.  
  2143. Lincoln abandoned the room under her little sister’s gaze, a gaze she shifted immediately to Lori, lying in her own bed. “Guessh I’m shleeping in her bed tonight.”
  2144.  
  2145. Lincoln unsurely knocked the door. Even if she was his sister and he loved her, their relationship had always been different. Her pushing demeanor, her violent tendencies, her unique way of showing her feelings…it made Lincoln avoid her more than once, but she always got her way, whichever the situation was. It made the only son of the Loud family feel powerless whenever she was involved. They had many unresolved issues, issues Lincoln didn’t dare to face. Lynn’s answer didn’t take long to be known.
  2146.  
  2147. -“Go away!” Lincoln took a deep breath and prepared himself for the worst.
  2148.  
  2149. -“Lynn, I bring you-”
  2150.  
  2151. -“I SAID GO A…Oh…it’s only you.” She was sitting in her bed, other boot in her hand, ready to throw at full strength.
  2152.  
  2153. -“Sorry to disappoint you.”
  2154.  
  2155. -“Nah. I’m used to it.” That snarkiness annoyed Lincoln.
  2156.  
  2157. -“How come you didn’t throw that to me?” He asked handing the box to his sister.
  2158.  
  2159. -“I don’t want more problems. Being grounded sucks.” She took the pizza and gave it a bite. “This is cold.”
  2160.  
  2161. -“What did you expect?”
  2162.  
  2163. -“Dunno, maybe to heat it up a bit?”
  2164.  
  2165. -“I’m not talking about the pizza, I’m talking about what you did to be grounded.”
  2166. -“Hey, we had planned to gather together a week ago, wasn’t going to let the team down!” Lincoln wasn’t talking about that morning, he was talking about those 2 months she and the others made every single day a torment, but decided to let it slide “And you know who I met there?” An evil grin formed on her face. Unfortunately Lincoln knew, and Lynn could tell by his expression. Spending almost all her day in her room made her bored, so she decided to have a bit of fun at the expense of her brother and tease him a bit. “You know… After a few games, I could tell you two make a good couple.” That was something unexpected.
  2167.  
  2168. -“What do you mean?”
  2169.  
  2170. -“Well, she’s tough and has some guts, I admit that. She put up a good fight before I defeated her team. Basically, she has what you don’t.” Lincoln was no longer annoyed, now he was offended. Lynn has always been like this to him: a bully. No matter what he did, or how hard he tried, in her eyes, he has always been weak and pathetic, or at least, is what it seemed judging her actions. Her behavior was the one who least changed when everything started, and it didn’t surprise him at all because it’s been always like this…always.
  2171.  
  2172. -“I’m out. Goodnight, Lynn.” He wasn’t going to let Lynn’s shenanigans ruin the night more. He only wanted to sleep. But Lynn was far from over.
  2173.  
  2174. -“Don’t be like that, Linc. Come on, make me some company. It’s your fault I’m after all.”
  2175. -“My fault!? It’s you, IT’S ALWAYS YOU THAT… no…it’s not worth.” Anger, a feeling Lincoln knew how to control around Lynn. It's always the same. She provokes him, he takes the bait and ends up being manhandled with ease by the sportswoman. No, not this time.
  2176.  
  2177. -“I said goodnight, Lynn.” But Lynn was FAR from over.
  2178.  
  2179. -“Oh, what are you scared of, “man with a plan”? Or your plan is running, hiding and crying like a baby, huh? Man up!” she said with disdain.
  2180. Lincoln tried to ignore it, but Lynn was TOO GOOD putting people on the edge, and once more, the boy fell for it. Knowing it was a bad idea since the beginning, he charged against Lynn, and the brunette obviously didn’t wait for him on the bed. She jumped and both of them locked arms as if they were wrestlers. Lincoln’s mistake as that gave Lynn a clear advantage. With ease, she overpowered her little brother and stumbled him to the ground, putting him on a headlock.
  2181.  
  2182. -“That’s all you got!? You don’t stand a chance against me!”
  2183. But Lincoln wasn’t going to give up that easily, not this time. Using all his strength, he managed to get on his feet while grabbing Lynn’s waist and in an unusual display of power, he slammed his sister into the ground, making her release her hold. Before she could react again, Lincoln jumped on her, immobilizing her arms with his own hands and her lower body by sitting on the upper part of her legs. Lynn struggled without much force, still recovering from the impact.
  2184. For the first time in his life, he had the upper hand against Lynn…and it was “easier” than he expected, what made him think something wasn’t right. It was then when he realized, his face ended right in front of hers, and he could see clearly her expectant eyes, accompanied by a shit-eating grin.
  2185.  
  2186. -“Oh…look at this.” She said in a burlesque tone. Lincoln began panting heavily due to the effort but made no move, so Lynn, impatient as always, put all her energies in her legs and pushed up. Lincoln would have been sent to fly if he wasn’t grabbing the athlete’s wrists. Still, he rose enough to allow Lynn some freedom in her lower body, freedom she used to twirl her legs around Lincoln’s waist before his body landed. A feat only Lynn was able to do. Lynn’s grin only got wider as she felt something poking against her nether region, only then Lincoln realized that he was exactly where she wanted. “And now what?” asked Lynn while pressing her brother’s boner against her body, time after time. However, Lincoln didn’t react, he was still looking at her in the eye, only panting, trying to control himself and not fall for Lynn ’s machinations. Soon, her expectation became disappointment, she was giving him all the chances and still, nothing. So she decided to give him a tiny, final push.
  2187.  
  2188. -“Thanks, Lincoln. Thanks for proving me right. Thanks for proving that you have no balls.”
  2189. Enough.
  2190. Lincoln grabbed the collar of her shirt and ripped it, revealing part of her chest.
  2191.  
  2192. -“Hey! That was my favooOOooUuhhh.” Lincoln interrupted Lynn’s complain by shoving his mouth on her collarbone, almost biting her. For a few seconds, he danced his lips along her neck before being pushed away. His back hit the floor with a heavy sound, but it didn’t take him much time to get on his feet again. He locked Lynn on his sights again. Her back was against the door, a door she hastily locked with one hand while holding her pants with the other. How the hell she got rid of them that quickly? In her face was that expression she always had before going on a big game, nervous yet focused, with that devilish grin she showed him before, the last thing Lincoln saw before she turned off the light. In the dim darkness, he still could distinguish her figure, slowly moving around him, waiting for his next move, but Lincoln just followed her with his eyes. With cockiness, Lynn threw her pants to Lincoln’s, but he pushed them away with his arm. Lynn followed with a taunting gesture with her arms.
  2193. She was challenging him, and he was more than willing to accept.
  2194. Lincoln charged again connecting a tackle, one Lynn could have easily avoided, but that was the exact opposite of what she wanted. The boy pushed the brunette’s back against a wall and put his forearm against her neck, then he could see it clearly. That face, always full of herself, surrounded by smugness was there, expecting, waiting.
  2195. She craved for more.
  2196.  
  2197. -“You think this means anything? I could beat you with one arm…if I wanted” One arm she used to reach his pants and pull with the same strength with which he had ripped her shirt before. Lincoln didn’t answer, nor move, but there was definitely a response, a physical one. His "response" was released with another pull. With his pants and underwear on his feet, Lynn could see his erection almost touching her, waving in front of her genitalia, with only a thin piece of cloth between them. The white-haired boy moved his arm from his sister's neck and placed both hands on her hips. With two fingers, Lynn moved away her panties and revealed her soaked slit to her only brother. “Do I have to tell you how to do it?...What are you waiting for?” she whispered.
  2198. Lincoln thrust, without care, without remorse. He felt her insides twitch as he reached as deep as he could, making Lynn dig her nails on his polo with o much force, it was probably leaving mark on his skin. Lincoln moved his hand to her thighs and lifted her legs. Without more delay, Lincoln started moving his body, back and forth nonstop for minutes, slamming Lynn’s body against the wall with each push, showing off an energy Lynn never know he possessed. The intensity of her moans slowly increased and opposed the silence of her brother. Not a pant, not a word, the only noise coming from him was the wet sound produced every single time he entered his athlete sister.
  2199. Without any warning, Lincoln released his charge slamming Lynn’s body one last time, more violently than the previous times, before separating and letting her drop to the floor. A sonorous thud echoed through the room. Lynn looked up at the figure standing in front of her, and between huffs, she said what Lynn would say.
  2200.  
  2201. -“…That's all?” No response from Lincoln. The brunette reached for a near desk, to help herself get up. When she was halfway done, Lincoln grabbed her from the remains of her shirt and dragged her to the center of the room. She was down on all fours, unable to do a thing as Lincoln stripped her panties.
  2202. It was far from over.
  2203. 2 months ago, his sisters started acting different towards Lincoln, causing him pain, sadness, a feeling of worthlessness. But with Lynn was different, she has been doing that for years. Years of frustration, years of anger, years of confusion.
  2204. No more.
  2205. Lincoln grabbed her ponytail and pinned her head to the floor, lifting up her hips with the other hand. It only took him an instant to shove his member inside her again.
  2206. Ruthless, selfish, aggressive, those are adjectives that never described Lincoln Loud, but it was the way he was acting now, and Lynn was enjoying every single second of it, even if he couldn’t see her face to tell. On the previous occasions, he made sure to ensure his companions safety, even when he clearly wasn’t the one in control. He made sure there wasn’t any kind of danger, that at every moment he wasn’t hurting them...but now, Lincoln couldn’t care less. The only thing that crossed his mind, was to attack as if he had something to prove, some kind of objective to achieve.
  2207. Lincoln put his hips in motion once more, making their bodies collide, flooding the room with the sound of slaps and gasps. New sensations were traveling across her body, sending her into ecstasy. She could sense every inch of his manhood rubbing against her walls, making her go numb with each movement, drooling into the carpet her face was shoved in. After some more minutes of continuous assault, Lincoln let out another load, this time a bit more diluted one. After squeezing every single drop, he pulled out and flipped Lynn putting making her lay on her back. The white-haired boy looked at his sister’s face, to see her smug expression was still there, a bit more sweaty and tired, but there. Lincoln grabbed her arms a put his face at mere inches from hers. He was going to erase that expression, he was going to watch closely how it faded away. Letting all his weight in another thrust, the third round began.
  2208. Lynn’s eyes were rolled into her head. Her movements were guided by instinct, looking to please the boy who was nullifying most of her brain functions. But he was unable of making her change her expression, that faces she always made when she won something. Lincoln thought it was his time to be victorious, he won’t rest until she admitted defeat…but little did he know that he lost at the moment he charged for the first time against Lynn.
  2209. Being the third time, it took him much longer to reach the critical point, minutes of pounding, of skin rubbing against skin, of sweat smell spreading all over the place, making sure of not losing sight of Lynn’s face, to see something change…but nothing. With difficulty, he shot a third time, twitching with each volley. As Lincoln released her arms separated, a trail of cum still united his erection to Lynn’s cunt. Exhaustion took the best of him, taking him some seconds to finally be able to stand up. Lincoln looked at the sweaty mess that was his sister, breathing heavily, eyes half closed, different fluids leaking from her muff… and a grin.
  2210.  
  2211. -“…Giving…up…Lincoln?” She said between pants. 3 times he tried, 3 times he failed to “defeat” her. The white-haired boy frowned and clenched his fists. He was going to pounce in for the fourth intent, but a well-known voice interrupted him.
  2212.  
  2213. -“It doesn’t suit you being the dominating one.” Lucy said in her monotone voice. Lincoln jumped back at the sudden apparition of his little sister. Of all the times she had to pop out of nowhere now.
  2214.  
  2215. -“Lucy…how long have you been here?” The first words he spoke since he started unleashing everything on Lynn, and it was because an unexpected interference.
  2216.  
  2217. -“Since you threw Lynn in the middle of the room. It was thrilling, but it didn’t seem like you were your usual self.” Lucy looked at Lynn, trying to regain control of her body.
  2218.  
  2219. -“Lucy, this...”
  2220.  
  2221. -“Lincoln, you don’t need to justify your actions to me. I’m sure you had your reasons to do it...And I’m also sure those reasons are more than enough to say why she doesn’t deserve you” With that gratuitous dissing towards her sister, she took a step towards Lincoln.
  2222.  
  2223. -“H-hey…step back…from my prize.” Lynn said, now trying to regain her balance.
  2224.  
  2225. -“I’m surprised you can still talk…yet alone move.” Lynn drew strength from weakness and stood up, only for her legs to fail her and drop on her knees.
  2226.  
  2227. -“I’ve been training for too long…to be defeated this easily.” She caught her breath, and finally managed to get up, finding somehow balance with her trembling legs. “Now do what I said!”
  2228.  
  2229. -“"…Your prize?"...That’s the way you see him?” Lucy said with an accusing tone, or at least, it’s what it seemed compared to her usual monotone voice. Lincoln was just standing there, besides his little sister, observing the whole situation unsure of what to do.
  2230.  
  2231. -“It took me long enough for him to man up.” Slowly, Lynn was regaining her energy “So I’m not letting anyone take advantage of my hard work…Lucy, this isn’t a warning, this is a threat!”
  2232.  
  2233. -“Stop it.” Lincoln's voice was barely audible to the goth and the jock.
  2234.  
  2235. -“Words are cheap. And if you believe that our brother is some kind of trophy…I’m letting you know you lost the ‘competition’ days ago.”
  2236.  
  2237. -“What are you talking about!?” Lynn’s aggravation grew every time Lucy talked.
  2238.  
  2239. -“I’ve already laid with him” Lucy’s words had something unusual in them, joy. The remembrance of one of the happiest times in her life “...I was his first and he was mine… But you’ll never experience that, how gentle and caring he was. The first time love is consummated must be something beautiful...and not what happened here.” Lucy said, slowly waving her arm in front of her, signaling the aftermath of her siblings' clash. If Lynn was a master of provocation, Lucy learned from the best.
  2240.  
  2241. -“Now you’ve done it, you LITTLE FREAK!” Lynn wasn’t going to stay silent. She prepared to pounce on her scary sister, but Lincoln’s shout stopped her advance.
  2242.  
  2243. -“STOP IT, YOU TWO!”
  2244. Silence. For minutes, the two sisters crossed looks, like if they wanted to jump to each other's throats, but why? Obvious answer: their only brother, and their differences regarding on when to revert back to her old habits towards Lincoln.
  2245. Lucy was the first to look away, turning her back to Lynn to look at her brother.
  2246.  
  2247. -“I’m not letting you get closer to him again.” The goth broke the quietness “You only hurt him, you only try to make him change. I won’t let that take place.”
  2248.  
  2249. -“ I’m just trying to help him the best way I can! Weren’t y’all worried he was too naive? Too nice for his own good? Well, I made him stand for himself! So I don’t care if he hates me if I manage to make him-”
  2250.  
  2251. -“What? Lynn I…I don’t hate you. How can you think that?”
  2252.  
  2253. -“ Yeah, SURE! I’d kick the teeth out of someone who did to me only half of what we did to you, so don’t come at me with-”
  2254.  
  2255. -“Lynn, look at me!” The sportswoman stopped her speech “You’re my sisters, I could never hate you, even after…all, I just can’t” Lincoln tricked and lied to them before, but only over petty things. They knew that their brother would never lie them about something serious like this, but still, Lynn had a hard time believing it.
  2256.  
  2257. -“Then explain to me…this.” She grabbed her ripped shirt, barely covering her. A reminder of their actions.
  2258.  
  2259. -“I don’t know, I exploded… These weeks have been the worst…I don’t know how to put it, you know how everything was, but you Lynn… you’ve been like that for years… I…I couldn’t control, I-I just poured my frustrations… I’m sorry, Lynn…I’ll make it up to you. Somehow I…”
  2260.  
  2261. -“Don’t say that! Don’t say you’re sorry! Why you are!? Just don’t…please. ” Lynn scrubbed her right eye with the palm of her hand. Something extraordinary, it was like she was holding up tears. “I-I know sometimes I push you too far, but it’s because I know you’re able of much more than you do, Lincoln! That’s how I am! But I…I never wanted to hurt you…”
  2262.  
  2263. -“I know any of you wanted, Lynn.”
  2264.  
  2265. -“People are imperfect, but you can learn to live with those imperfections. Is what makes us humans. You can’t change a person only to have an easier way in your life.” Was Lucy talking about how everyone tried to change Lincoln or about how all the sisters tried to change themselves? “You know what to say, Lynn. Only 3 words.”
  2266.  
  2267. -“Lincoln, I am sorry...”
  2268.  
  2269. -“That was 4.”
  2270.  
  2271. -“Lucy, come on, stop that. And Lynn…it’s okay…I forgive you.” Lincoln stopped a war between his sisters before it started. In a rare sight, Lynn had humbleness on her face. She didn’t lose, but neither did Lincoln. The siblings managed to find peace among them in the midst of the emotional storm they lived minutes ago. They were happy…
  2272. But now was the time to recall the situation they were in. He was naked, at least, his lower part. Also, one of his sisters had only a torn piece of cloth barely covering her skin, and the other sister was getting closer and closer to him with clear intentions.
  2273.  
  2274. -“Lincoln, remember our afternoon conversation?” Lucy started taking off her dress, getting even with her siblings “Seems I won’t have to wait longer.”
  2275.  
  2276. -“Hey, don’t take advantage. I was here first!” Lynn and Lucy pushed down Lincoln to one of their beds. The almost had a fight moments ago and now they’re more than eager to “work” together. Did they get in good terms that easily?
  2277.  
  2278. -“H-hey, I don’t think we should right now…”
  2279.  
  2280. -“Come on, Linc. Until now we were just warming up! Now it gets REAL!”
  2281.  
  2282. -“Tell us, brother. Won’t you spend with us this lovely night?”
  2283.  
  2284. It's far from over.
  2285.  
  2286. Even if it was somewhat badly, he could get some sleep the two nights prior, but he didn’t have such luck this time. All night long, Lucy and Lynn made sure he didn’t. Outside the room, it was a peaceful night, inside, quite the opposite. Even with the door locked, during the whole ordeal, he was afraid of someone entering and at any moment of the night, catching them in the act. The closest thing to that was the sound of their returning mother which made the three of them freeze, trying to avoid making noise, but still, they couldn’t hold their panting breaths. Luckily for them, nothing occurred and their mother went to sleep directly, so they continued their questionable deed. The break of dawn didn’t stop the sisters, but in the end, they gave up to exhaustion. Seems no one else was awake so they decided to cash in the opportunity that may not repeat in a long time.
  2287. The girls rested their sweaty bodies on Lincoln’s sides, still panting. He looked at the time.
  2288.  
  2289. -“8:21… Dang it...”
  2290.  
  2291. -“Yeah, it was quite the night, I doubted you have enough stamina to keep up, Linc.”
  2292.  
  2293. -“How are you feeling, brother?”
  2294.  
  2295. -“…Thirsty…and the pain...down there... feels like burning.” Both sisters giggled at the statement, but he didn’t find it funny. Even so, it was clear that any ill feelings towards each other was now gone, or at least, it’s what one of the sisters wanted to believe. Only one way to make it sure.
  2296.  
  2297. -Lincoln, are you still mad at me?” Direct. Lynn’s concern was real.
  2298.  
  2299. -“I’d say you are on better terms.” Lucy added. The jock wanted to believe that, and kinda did, but also wanted to hear it from her brother.
  2300.  
  2301. -“I…”
  2302. -“WHAT THE, WHAT I’M DOING HERE!?” There goes tranquility. Lori’s scream echoed through the house. And she didn’t sound happy.
  2303.  
  2304. -“LYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYNN!” Her destination was obvious.
  2305.  
  2306. -“She’s coming! What do we do?” Lincoln panicked.
  2307.  
  2308. -“Quick, brother, grab our clothes and come to the vents.” Lincoln did what Lucy ordered as fast as he could and followed to her favorite place.
  2309.  
  2310. -“Hey, I don’t fit in the vents! What I do?”
  2311.  
  2312. -“Sorry, Lynn. If you don’t survive, I’ll take care of your funeral.”
  2313.  
  2314. -“Lucy, you traitor!”
  2315.  
  2316. While getting deep inside the conducts, they could hear Lori slamming at the door. Talk about a rude awakening. The owed Lynn one now, but it’ll have to wait.
  2317. Without wasting time, Lucy guided Lincoln to his room, a path she knew well.
  2318.  
  2319. -“Thanks, Luce, but I feel a tad guilty about leaving Lynn alone like that.” Said Lincoln remarking the obvious.
  2320.  
  2321. -“She’ll be fine.”
  2322. Both siblings reached the destination, but only one entered got out of the vents and entered the room.
  2323.  
  2324. -” I’ll be in here until Lori leaves our room, in case you need something, also…Can you give me back my dress?”
  2325.  
  2326. -“S-sure.” answered Lincoln, blushing “I should wear something too.” He handed her sister the white shirt and striped pants she used as pajamas. She quickly snatched it and placed a kiss on the boy’s cheek.
  2327.  
  2328. -“Until next time.” She said with her best intent of flirtatious voice before disappearing again in the vents. He searched among his belongings and found some underwear and his pajamas, which he put on hastily. He lied down on his bed, wanting to rest. A difficult task, as he could hear Lori’s rant towards Lynn clearly, but fatigue this time played in his favor. He went to sleep hoping Lori’s anger made her ignore the smell on Lynn’s room, something that will inform about what they’ve done.
  2329. He woke up again for the second time that morning and seemed that his prayers were heard. Once again, he looked at the clock.
  2330.  
  2331. -“10:34… 2 hours…less is nothing.”
  2332. The flashing light of his phone caught was the first thing he saw.
  2333. 1 message.
  2334. From Ronnie Anne.
  2335.  
  2336. -“Hey lame-o, been a while since we saw last time. Want to do something tomorrow?”
  2337.  
  2338. -“…Tomorrow...” The boy didn’t want to turn down his supposed”not- girlfriend”, but there was something going on which came first on his list of priorities, his family. More exactly what he and his sisters were doing. Lincoln scratched the back of his head and made a decision.
  2339.  
  2340. -“I must take care of everything. Today... Somehow.” He was determined, but clueless about what to do, because reality was harsh. He had sex with most of his sisters. He knew it was wrong, but...they wanted it, right? He was also doing it for them...
  2341. Lincoln left his room to see the aftermath of Lori’s verbal discharge, but nothing seemed out of place. He hoped everything was settled peacefully when he was sleeping and Lynn was alright. His thoughts were interrupted by Lisa and Lori’s conversation coming out of the bathroom.
  2342.  
  2343. -“And are you sure there won’t be any mark left?”
  2344.  
  2345. -“Completely, hash been teshted many timesh before.” Lisa reassured the eldest sister, who was examining her forehead. Miraculously, there wasn’t any scar nor mark on it. Lisa’s experiments were something to behold at times.
  2346.  
  2347. -“Hey L-Lori, are you feeling better?” asked Lincoln, but he only got an uncaring an uncaring gaze as response. After that, Lori kept ignoring the boy.
  2348.  
  2349. -“Good job, Lisa.” Lori thanked her sister and started the march towards her room.
  2350.  
  2351. -“If you feel uneashy, resht shome more.” The door of Lori’s bedroom closed, making her words go to waste. Lisa didn’t care much about it, for what she cared now for, was standing near her “Lincoln, follow me.”
  2352.  
  2353. -“Huh?”
  2354.  
  2355. -“You have to tell me about yeshterday. I’m guesshing that not returning to your room after vishiting Lynn meansh you...”
  2356.  
  2357. -”Stop.” Lincoln interrupted Lisa much to her surprise. Not this again. Just what kind of twisted mind Lisa had? Lincoln was trying to deal with it and he had enough. He didn’t need to remember and explain everything every day to Lisa. He was going to make things clear to her, so he went to Lisa and Lily’s room where Lisa followed a bit confused.
  2358.  
  2359. -“Where’s Lily?”
  2360.  
  2361. -“Mother took her to the park. Now pleashe, take a sheat.”
  2362. Lincoln examined the chair she was offering him. Seemed normal, but you can never be too suspicious around Lisa. Still, he sat down without further questioning.
  2363.  
  2364. -“Sho...”
  2365.  
  2366. -“Luan, Luna and Lynn…” he sighed “in that order.”
  2367.  
  2368. -“I’m shurprished it took Lynn this long to take action. Can you deshcribe your or their feelings during the intercourshe?
  2369.  
  2370. -“…What?”
  2371.  
  2372. -“Our shishters are happy with you, sharing how they feel to the fullesht, but talking with you about it, it’sh obvioush their feelingsh aren’t completely reciprocated. it’sh something I’ve been shtudying shince Lori took my idea of “shelf-conditioning and-”
  2373.  
  2374. -“Your idea of what?”
  2375. Lisa avoided looking at her brother. He had to know.
  2376.  
  2377. -“The whole change of our shiblingsh behaviour, theshe 2 monthsh they’ve been againsht you...It wash my idea.”
  2378.  
  2379. -“ARE YOU TELLING ME EVERYTHING THEY’VE DONE TO ME IT’S BECAUSE OF YOU!?, MY OWN SISTERS TREATING ME AS LITTLE MORE THAN TRASH! THE FEEL OF WORTHLESSNESS! ALL I’VE DONE TO THEM! IT’S YOUR FAULT, LISA!?”
  2380.  
  2381. -“Not my fault. I wash againsht it, but Lori enforced it” Lincoln’s eyes wanted to leave it’s orbits.
  2382.  
  2383. -“That’s why you ‘knew’ that much! Since the beginning you wanted this to happen. I was nothing but a guinea pig, RIGHT?”
  2384.  
  2385. -“Not at all. I truly repent of giving her the idea. ”
  2386.  
  2387. -“You’re not!”
  2388.  
  2389. -“I undershtand you are dishtrushtful., but you have to believe me. I’m keeping track about your relationshipsh to make shure in cashe shomething getsh out of track-”
  2390.  
  2391. -“EVERYTHING IS ALREADY OUT OF TRACK, LISA! YOU MAKE EVERYTHING AN EXPERIMENT! YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT US!”
  2392. It was undeniable that Lisa was a cold person. She had difficulties showing her emotions and she enjoyed seeing everything in a scientific way, and sometimes she overdid it. But her brother’s words pierced through her shell. What Lincoln said hurt, and as Newton once said: “every action causes a reaction”.
  2393.  
  2394. -”And do you care about ush!?” Yelled Lisa.
  2395.  
  2396. -”What? Of course I do!”
  2397. Lisa climbed the chair and stood on Lincoln’s legs. Her unleashing was about to start.
  2398.  
  2399. -”Do you know how our shishtersh felt when you shatrted going out with that girl? THAT wash what made them change their waysh. They were fighting their feelingsh becaushe they knew it wash wrong, but in the end, they shuccumbed! They’ve given you their everything becauhse they love you, Lincoln. But for how long are they going to shettle with that!? How long until they shtart getting jealoush of each other!? How long until any of them wantsh to be “the only one”!? Did that even crossh you mind!?”
  2400. Lincoln was looking at his sister in disbelief. She was right. He felt unwanted, powerless about how his sisters were treating him, but how they felt during it, holding back and hiding their true self wasn’t making them feel better. Both sides were suffering in their own ways.
  2401.  
  2402. -”Lisa...”
  2403.  
  2404. -”I’m not finished yet! They’re going to want to feel loved again, they’re going to come back to you, they, they...” Lisa burrowed her face on Lincoln’s polo, sniffling against it. “I don’t want to share...”
  2405. Lincoln slowly enveloped her sister in a hug.
  2406.  
  2407. -“You’re right...I didn’t think about it.”
  2408. Lisa gave no response, but the sound of her fight to hold back her tears. She was a genius, but she was also a kid. She was still human and therefore, able to feel. And feelings hurt at times.
  2409.  
  2410. -“I’ve been selfish, I wasn’t realizing what it meant to all of them...”
  2411.  
  2412. -”You regret it?” Lisa finally spoke up between sniffs.
  2413.  
  2414. -”I did at first, but now...I don’t know, Lisa.”
  2415. Lincoln cradled his younger sister until she managed to calm down. She had been repressing for too long. She was only a little girl with a superior intellect and an understanding of the world that most people saw as a blessing, but sometimes it was a curse. Yes, she was only a young girl...one that wanted the same as her sisters had.
  2416.  
  2417. -”Brother, I have shomething to ashk you.”
  2418.  
  2419. -”No, Lisa.”
  2420.  
  2421. -”I didn’t formulate any-”
  2422.  
  2423. -”Lisa, I know I’m not the brightest kid, but I know where this is going. You’re too young and too small, you should know more than anyone about how dangerous what you were going to ask me is.”
  2424.  
  2425. -”My body ish barely different than the twinsh, alsho, I’m fully mentally prepared for it.”
  2426.  
  2427. -”Lisa, please. I couldn’t forgive myself if I hurt you. Lana barely understood what was going on and I know you’re more intelligent than any of us, so I’m sure you understand why I don’t want to do that to you.”
  2428.  
  2429. -”I...wait, only Lana?” Lincoln looked away for a moment before answering.
  2430.  
  2431. -”Lola knew perfectly what she was doing” Lincoln remembered how his time with Lola went, and even if it ended happily, he couldn’t say the same about the start.
  2432.  
  2433. -”I shee...I undershtand Lincoln.” Lisa got off her brother, thing that weirded him. Lisa was stubborn so convincing her so easily was odd. He thought it was because she truly understood the seriousness of what she was asking...that was before he saw her take out a remote from her pocket and pressing a button. Before he could react, some weird wires came out of the chair restraining his arms and legs.
  2434.  
  2435. -”I undershtand that I’m going to have to take a more drashtic approach to this.” Lisa started exhibiting that weird smile she got everytime she wanted to do something questionable, and boy, this was one of those times.
  2436.  
  2437. -”L-Lisa!. I’m warning you. Don’t!” Lincoln struggled in vain.
  2438.  
  2439. -”I’d shay I do this is for shcience...” she said while getting closer to her brother. She climbed again to the chair and forced a kiss on Lincoln. It was sloppy, but felt illegally good. She detached her mouth, however, a trail of saliva was still linking them, refusing to break the bond. “...but this is completely for you, Lincoln.”
  2440. Those words said, Lisa looked through her pockets once again until she found a pill. She examined it closely and swallowed it.
  2441.  
  2442. -”Hope it worksh...What am I shaying? Of courshe it will.”
  2443.  
  2444. -“What was that?”
  2445.  
  2446. -“A pain inhibitor I developed. I’m fully aware my body ishn’t prepared yet to take on thish kind activity without shome modificationsh.”
  2447.  
  2448. -“Do you realize that what you are doing is insane? What if it doesn’t work”
  2449.  
  2450. -“I’m willing to take the rishk. Now let’s shee…” Lisa slowly unzipped his pants, and what loomed before her sight was...disappointing. Lincoln’s tool wasn’t meeting her expectations. Her records marked that what Lincoln packed was bigger than what she seeing.
  2451.  
  2452. -“I thought this thing reached greater shizesh before shexual intercourshe.”
  2453.  
  2454. -“I-it’s been some rough days a-and it’s kinda cold in here, and UNCHAIN ME NOW, LISA!” Lincoln didn’t take well anyone questioning his manliness, and it was something Lynn could confirm. But that wasn’t the point, no. Now he needed to keep calm and regain the movement of his limbs.
  2455.  
  2456. -“The time runsh short to washte it on foreplaying to aroushe you. Mmmmmh, I have an idea.” Lisa went to her desk and grabbed some odd looking serum. “Open wide, big brother.”
  2457.  
  2458. -“I’m not taking anything like you did. I wiiiIIIIII!!” His eyes widened as Lisa grabbed his ballsack with moderated strength, but enough for Lincoln to feel pain. There was no time for games.
  2459.  
  2460. -“I know better than you how the body worksh and what it needsh to reagin itsh shtrength and shtamina. Now chooshe:eashy or hard way?” Lincoln opened his mouth without hesitating. Lisa dropped the serum on Lincoln’s mouth and watched as he swallowed it.
  2461.  
  2462. -“And what’s that supposed to do?”
  2463.  
  2464. -“In a shimple wordsh, reshtore completely your energy…and making you more aushpicious to aroushal. Oh, already working.” In a matter of seconds, Lincoln’s manhood began throbbing looking like it was already at critical point.
  2465.  
  2466. -“Lisa, it hurts!”
  2467.  
  2468. -”Maybe the doshage wash too much...Let’sh do thish”
  2469. Lisa stroked the phallus and in mere seconds, Lincoln discharged his seed across the room, landing on a wall. With a smile on her face due to knowing that another of her experiments was a success, the scientist grabbed a recipient and collected everything she could of Lincoln's load.
  2470.  
  2471. -“It may be usheful” she said, covering the tube and dropping it on the table. “Now how do you feel, big brother? According to my calculationsh, thish will help to balance the reaction.” Lincoln’s penis was no longer aching, but the soldier was standing tall, ready for its duty.
  2472.  
  2473. -“It’s still...Lisa, why?”
  2474.  
  2475. -“You already know… I only want what you gave to our shishtersh. I want to feel the shame ash them. II’sh only fair.”
  2476. It was a childish reason: I want what the others have. Even with a genius mind, she behaved at times like her real age reflected. But Lisa knew better than that. She pulled down her pants and stood on Lincoln’s legs, right in front her brother’s pulsating member, examining it. She considered for a moment if Lincoln was right and it was more than she could chew.
  2477.  
  2478. -“Lisa, you know it yourself, stop before you-” The little girl ignored the advice and holding eye contact with him, she guided his private parts unto hers with roughness and pushed until nothing more fitted.
  2479.  
  2480. -“It feelsh way better than I expected.” Lisa smiled, and she also discovered that the pain inhibitor worked properly. It was a good day for science.
  2481. Now without the pain barrier holding them back, only pleasure was left. She grabbed his orange polo and started moving her hips in circles.
  2482.  
  2483. -“L-Lisa, how you know-?”
  2484.  
  2485. -“Lola ish not the only one who hash been in contact with the adult world. I have my own knowledge on how intercourshe wroksh...and how to make it as gratifying as possible.”
  2486. Lisa tensed her body, tightening all around Lincoln’s member, making him squeal. Each of the sisters felt completely different, but what Lisa was able to d, probably because...he preferred not to think about it. Lisa continued carelessly moving her body up and down, amking sure he was enjoying every single second of their union. Lincoln struggled against the chains, not because he wanted to flee, but to make sure he wasn’t hurting his sister. Judging by her face, which seemed full of bliss, that was covered already.
  2487. The pain inhibitor allowed Lisa to thrust as violently as she wanted, much to Lincoln’s dismay, who was already on his limit.
  2488. Arching his back, he reached as deep as Lisa’s body allowed him and shoot inside. Lisa’s experiments were, indeed, something to behold.
  2489. She extinguished her moans against his chest as Lincoln made sure all the excess of energy left his body.
  2490. Slowly, Lisa separated her body making a pop sound that filled the room. She finally got what she wanted, and finally showed her feelings to her brother. She was going to make sure Lincoln chose her over the others.
  2491.  
  2492. -”I apologize for my waysh, Lincoln, but it wash necceshary.”
  2493.  
  2494. -”Can you untie me now?” the white-haired boy panted.
  2495. Lisa fully dismounted and cleaned her special place. After that, she looked for the device on her pants and set Lincoln free.
  2496.  
  2497. -”Don’t do that ever again”
  2498.  
  2499. -”I can’t promishe shuch thing.” Lisa was sincere, you can’t take that from her.
  2500.  
  2501. -”This goes against what you’ve told me of me not caring about how you feel and others wantiing to be the only one, don’t you think?”
  2502.  
  2503. -”At firsht shight, but if my plan goesh ash I intend, the othersh won’t be a problem.”
  2504.  
  2505. -”Lisa?”
  2506.  
  2507. -”Guessh I have to tell you. What if there wash a chance of making the othersh forget about the courshe of theshe lasht daysh?”
  2508.  
  2509. -”Erasing their memories?”
  2510.  
  2511. -”Exactly, it’sh experimental, but with enough preparation, I can-”
  2512.  
  2513. “I’m completely against it, Lisa. It’ll only make it worse for them. These days...I’ve seen them so happy, beaming...I can’t make them forget that.”
  2514.  
  2515. -”Why you have to make it sho difficult?...That may hurt’em to a greater extent in the long run.”
  2516.  
  2517. -”I’ll make sure that doesn’t happen. Your big brother will take care of everything, I promise.”
  2518. Lisa stood there for a second before jumping on him, enveloping him in a hug. “Hey, stop it.” He said with a soothing voice. “You know you girls are the most important thing to me.” He ended, giving her his most reassuring smile.
  2519.  
  2520. -“Are you shure about it?”
  2521.  
  2522. -“I know it’s wrong. Not only what we’ve done, but pretending everything is going to be sunshine and rainbows. But I regret nothing.I’ll do my best to make sure everything goes as good as it can, doesn’t matter how long it takes me, doesn’t matter what I have to do. Nothing bad will happen to any of my sisters. I promise.”
  2523. The girl grabbed his hand. Lincoln made her human side take over her. She wasn’t a heartless, cold-minded monster, she was a little girl in love.
  2524.  
  2525. -“I... No. We won’t let anything happen to YOU. I promishe.”
  2526.  
  2527. -“If you’re taking care of my safety then I’m sure nothing can happen to me.” He joked. It was always nice for his sisters to see Lincoln’s cheerful smile. It made them happy. “But now...Lori…”
  2528.  
  2529. -”You have the wrong idea about our eldesht shishter.”
  2530.  
  2531. -“But she’s been so angry lately, and she was who made all of you-”
  2532.  
  2533. -”Lincoln.” Lisa interrupted with a stern tone “Trusht me. Do what you do besht.”
  2534. Lincoln, determined, left the room hand in hand with Lisa.
  2535.  
  2536.  
  2537. -“…and there shouldn’t be any shide effectsh.” It wasn’t what Lincoln wanted to hear when he asked Lisa about the effects of what she made him ingest, but that was the last of his problems now. Going downstairs accompanied by Lisa, he stopped halfway on the stairs. Looking at the living room, he caught a glance of most of his sisters in there, carefreely doing their own stuff, playing, reading... It was the moment to take action.
  2538.  
  2539. -“Lisa, do you know if Lori’s still in her room?” he whispered to his partner.
  2540.  
  2541. -“I’m 97% shure.”
  2542.  
  2543. -“I’m going to ask you a favor. Watch them” he pointed all the girls on the first floor”don’t let them come upstairs.”
  2544.  
  2545. -“Sho shoon? You can wait to-”
  2546.  
  2547. -“No. Whatever that must happen, happens now.”
  2548.  
  2549. -“I undershtand.”Lisa let go his hand and continued her way while Lincoln turned back. Here he was, standing right at the other side of the hallway, facing Lori and Leni’s bedroom. The corridor never looked that long. He was nervous and scared, but also determined. Lori was scared, but he was doing this for all her sisters, and for him. He was ready to take the first step when he felt a tug on his shirt.
  2550.  
  2551. -“Lisa…I know you’re concerned, but-”
  2552.  
  2553. -“Linky....” That voice…Leni? Lincoln looked to his side to confirm it. She had an uneasy expression, worryingly sad... Lisa watched the scene from the edge of the stairs...
  2554.  
  2555. -“Lisa!”
  2556.  
  2557. -“Apologiesh, she wash fashter than I thought. I’ll reshume my errand.” She went downstairs again.
  2558.  
  2559. -“Linky…don’t.”
  2560.  
  2561. -“Leni, do you really know what I’m going to do?”
  2562.  
  2563. -“You are going to tell Lori, don’t you?” The boy looked at the floor and nodded.
  2564.  
  2565. -“I-I know I’m not very bright, but even I know that will be bad. I don’t know what Lori will do to you…”
  2566.  
  2567. -“Are you nuts?” Lynn and Lucy’s bedroom door suddenly open. He forgot her sporty sister was still in her room, and she heard everything. “Why are you telling her?”
  2568.  
  2569. -“Lynn, Leni. It’s only a matter of time she knows.”
  2570.  
  2571. -“You can choose another day! you heard her before, she’s fuming!” Technically, Lori was mad at Lynn, but her point stood.
  2572.  
  2573. -“No. I’m facing her now.”
  2574.  
  2575. -“Then I’m going with you.” Leni said.
  2576.  
  2577. -“No.” It was Lincoln’s duty to end this, and he wanted to do it alone, so any of his sisters got caught in the middle of him and Lori.
  2578.  
  2579. -“B-but-”
  2580.  
  2581. -“He’s not going change his mind.” Lynn interrupted her.
  2582.  
  2583. -“But he is going to take all the blame…” Lynn looked at his brother. He assented with his head. Lynn doubted if she should side with Leni on this, but after staring right into his eyes, she reconsidered it. He looked ready to take on the world, so sure of himself, so man- NO, it’s not the moment to think about that.
  2584.  
  2585. -“Leni…I trust him. He’ll do what’s best.” Leni hesitated, but she ended up giving in. Before turning around, she knelt and gently kissed Lincoln on the lips. Lynn wanted to protest about it but ended up making blind eye.
  2586.  
  2587. -“Good luck, Linky”
  2588.  
  2589. -”Go get her, bro.”
  2590. Leni and Lynn said respectively. Lincoln pressed the tip of his fingers against his lips...He was ready, now for sure.
  2591. He got close to that door, separating him from his fate. He wanted to believe he was ready, but...
  2592.  
  2593. -“The moment of truth…” he knocked.
  2594.  
  2595. -“Whoever it is, scram.”
  2596. Lincoln ignored his sister warning and went in. Lori was laying on her bed, looking at her phone. She was ready to unleash a verbal assault on Lincoln, but his words stopped her in her tracks.
  2597.  
  2598. -“You wanted me to talk to you when I have something important to say, no?”
  2599.  
  2600. -“…I’m listening.”
  2601.  
  2602. -“But first I want you to answer me something.” When a man afraid, is the only time when he can be brave.
  2603.  
  2604. -“ Shoot.”
  2605. Lincoln inhaled. He already knew the answer to some questions, but had to hear them again.
  2606.  
  2607. -“Why you put the others against me?”
  2608.  
  2609. -“That’s not your business.” answered Lori without taking the eyes off her phone.
  2610.  
  2611. -“Then tell me why you tried to make me and Ronnie Anne break up?”
  2612.  
  2613. -“Because she’s Bobby’s sister. You know how weird it is your brother dating the sister of your boyfriend? Or isn’t Mr.mature smart enough to know about that?” It sounded like a bad excuse.
  2614.  
  2615. -“…Why are you so obsessed with Leni being around me?”
  2616. Lori finally put the device aside and looked at the boy.
  2617.  
  2618. -“Because she...I don’t want her to do anything wrong to you?”
  2619.  
  2620. -“Wrong? What’s your meaning of “wrong” to you? And also why Leni?”
  2621.  
  2622. -“Don’t play dumb with me, twerp! Because Leni’s the only one dumb enough to try!”
  2623.  
  2624. -“Lori…”
  2625. Time passed slowly, as if each word took various minute to left Lincoln and reach Lori.The story of what happened these 3 days. How he felt at the beginning, broken. And how that changed.
  2626. The visit of Lucy.
  2627. The reassuring of Leni.
  2628. The curiosity of Lana.
  2629. The redemption of Lola.
  2630. The cares of Luan.
  2631. The performance of Luna.
  2632. And the truth from Lisa.
  2633. Such acts, he tried to make them sound as something sinless. As something they’ll remember happily. Something both parts agreed on, even if at times, his own wasn’t sure. But he was now.
  2634. When Lincoln finished his narration, he was ready for the worse. For her to snap, to hit him like she never did before, and it would be justified. In his head, the best case scenario was him lying in a pool of his own blood. He was looking down, expecting the first smack to come.
  2635. But it never did.
  2636. When he looked up, he saw a fragile teen girl, trembling, with her eyes in utter disbelief to the words she just heard. only a thread of voice was able to escape her mouth.
  2637.  
  2638. -“Are you telling me…All of them... right before my eyes?
  2639. An expression of defeat, lifeless, unable to cope with what Lincoln revealed.
  2640.  
  2641. -“…Yes.”
  2642. He never saw Lori in such state, he almost preferred his original idea happened. Her to unleash her anger and frustration on him, because what was happening right now was what he tried to avoid for so long.
  2643. He hurt his sister, and this time might be irreparable.
  2644. Loru burrowed her face on her knees. She wasn’t making a single sound, she wasn’t moving, she didn’t have the strength to.
  2645.  
  2646. -”Lori?”
  2647. No response.
  2648.  
  2649. -”L-Lori...”
  2650. Lincoln sat by her side. At first, he avoided contact, or looking at her, but as minutes passed, his concern made him try to look at her face. However, Lori’s sudden reaction interrupted him.
  2651.  
  2652. -“What do I do now, Lincoln?”
  2653. He wished to have an answer, something to calm her, something to make the whole ordeal better for everyone, but the truth isn’t that kind. ”What do I do? Pretend you didn’t tell me anything? Should I tell mom and Dad? Beak our family?...What can I do?” Her tone was dull, monotone, as if Lucy was the one saying those words. Again, Lincoln had no answer.
  2654.  
  2655. -“I don’t know...”Lincoln didn’t know what to do or say, but he knew why he came to the room, and how far he was willing to go for his sisters to not be harmed.“ but whatever you decide, I’ll take it. Technically, all is my fault.”
  2656.  
  2657. -”No...This is my fault, I should’ve done something, but...”
  2658.  
  2659. -”What? How’s this your fault.”
  2660. Lori finally unburrowed her head and Looked at the boy. She wiped her eyes with her arm, even though there were no tears. She couldn’t cry, not before telling him.
  2661.  
  2662. -“Let me tell you a story, Lincoln”.
  2663. Confused, Lincoln looked at Lori. She pointed him to sit in front of her. He accommodated and unsure of what to expect, listened.
  2664.  
  2665. -”This is the story of a girl, unsure of herself. She had the best family she could wish for, and every few years, it grew even larger. She loved her parents, she loved her sisters, and she loved her little baby brother…
  2666. She loved spending time with him, watching him giggle, caressing him when he got hurt, seeing how he grew up...how every of her siblings and herself did.
  2667. But one day, a big change happened. She had to start high school, and she was scared. She was an awkward girl, wearing braces and some ugly glasses, and that place was so intimidating...She didn’t want to be there. She wanted to flee, to feel safe.
  2668. That same day, the little boy started school. Before going her way, the girl caught a glance of her little brother, and she could tell he was feeling the same way. New people...new place… He was also afraid, for sure, he needed her...and she needed him. What reassured her, what made her smile…
  2669. So she decided to get away from that wretched place, but the janitor, teachers...they couldn’t let it happen...She squirmed, fought back, with everything she had. Biting, throwing weak punches...heh...”
  2670.  
  2671. -”Lori...”
  2672.  
  2673. -”Fortunately, no other kid saw that. Can you imagine everything she’would have to go through if someone did? Of course, the principal and teachers weren’t happy. She threatened to call the girls parents, but she begged them to not. It wasn’t because of herself, but of what they could do if they knew the truth...so she tried to bargain.
  2674. They wanted the girl to talk with the school’s psychologist, to understand what prompted that attack, that behavior. The professional only need one session to conclude the big sister was overprotective. Worryingly overprotective...to the point of obsession. So the tried to correct it.”
  2675.  
  2676. -”...What happened then?”
  2677.  
  2678. -“The girl was lucky the story didn’t spread. Then, the psychologist thought that if the girl spent less time with her siblings and pursued other interests, those feels will naturally go away, because she was only using her brother as a refuge of the real world, a world that deeply terrified her...and she believed it.
  2679. She distanced from her family doing what she believed to be protection because she promised she’ll do it. She will guard them...she will guard him against every danger, even if the danger was herself.
  2680. Years passed and all was going as intended. That first-day incident was only a memory in her mind, or so she thought. It changed again when she heard her brother talk about girls with his friend. It took so little to make everything resurface again: insecurities, fears...and jealousy.
  2681. She needed help again, but she couldn’t tell her parents, so she went to the only person who knew about the “problem”, that psychologist…
  2682. Seeing how things were, decided to make an experiment: the girl to meet and get advice from a boy who was in a similar situation.”
  2683.  
  2684. -”How it went?”
  2685.  
  2686. -”Pretty good, because the boy and the girl were a couple after a few weeks.”
  2687.  
  2688. -”A coup- WAIT, THAT MEANS RONNI-” Lincoln was interrupted by Lori pressing his lips with his fingers. The story wasn’t over.
  2689.  
  2690. -”The girl told him her problems and he understood. The boy told her for what he was through, and she understood too.
  2691. Day by day, they felt comfier in each others presence...they were in love. But what she felt...couldn’t be so easily controlled.
  2692. Then, one day, the girl’s brother started dating a girl. she thought it was for the better, to each follow their own way, but she realized something. Her sisters...something was wrong with them, the same thing that was wrong with herself. She couldn’t let any of them experience the same as she did, she had to protect them….and did something stupid, something that caused what she didn’t want to happen. And it was her fault”
  2693.  
  2694. Lincoln didn’t know what to say. He lived differently how Lori became colder towards them, and when she started dating Bobby. He never knew everything that was hiding behind those actions
  2695.  
  2696. -“That girl is lost...and I don’t know how the story will finish.”
  2697. Lincoln moved again to her side and gently hugged her. She’s been the one suffering most without anyone knowing. “I’m sure you’ll grow up to be a handsome and smart man, Lincoln. But I didn’t want you to grow up too fast, I wanted what was best for you...But right now, I don’t know if I was wrong.”
  2698.  
  2699. -“No, you everything for us. You did so much...” he tightened the hug.
  2700.  
  2701. -“I’m sorry, Lincoln. I could have been a better sister to every single one of you.”
  2702.  
  2703. -”No. No one would change a thing about you, I’m sure. We love you, Lori.”
  2704.  
  2705. -”Don’t do this to me Lincoln.”
  2706. What could Lori do? All for what she fought was at the edge now. Her family, her future, her relationships... Bobby told her that just once would be...No! What happened to him wasn’t his fault and she couldn’t do that to him, it was before they knew each other, she couldn’t...
  2707.  
  2708. -“I...I’ll be by your side whatever you decide, Lori.” He said, with that smile she loved, that smile that made her feel safe, that smile that she swore to protect...
  2709. Fuck it.
  2710.  
  2711. -”And what will you do if I tell someone about it?” Lori asked. ”What’s your plan for this?”
  2712.  
  2713. -“I don’t know, nothing went as I expected. I’m as lost as you…”
  2714.  
  2715. -“I can’t believe it” Lori snickered “You came here without an idea of what to do, right?”
  2716. Lincoln nodded. Nothing he could think after the most confusing days of his life. He got startled when Lori pulled him a bit closer.
  2717.  
  2718. -”L-Lori?” he asked, starting to blush.
  2719.  
  2720. -I don’t want to hurt any of you, but I can't turn my head the other way, Lincoln. There’s only one thing I can do. You’ll be safe...if I’m part of it, don’t you think?
  2721.  
  2722. -”Lori, but the others-”
  2723.  
  2724. -”I’ve been taking advice and thinking about the others for too long, Lincoln. I need this. So just this time, let me be selfish.”
  2725. She put her hand on his scalp, closening the distance between them, pressing her body against his head. Lincoln clumsily groped her body, making Lori smile for his intents, because it was finally happening. She lifted his chin with her index finger, with the intent of going for a kiss, but it was Lincoln the one who took the lead, pressing his mouth against hers.
  2726. She let him be in control for a while, but Lori’s desire made her took the lead again, her time to explore his mouth meticulously, fighting his tongue for domination. Lincoln tried to follow his more experienced partner, but even if he had ‘practice’ before, he wasn’t a match for her older sister. And he wasn’t complaining.
  2727. Still, Lori wanted Lincoln to enjoy this too. If it was happening, both of them were to enjoy it.
  2728. The kiss was great, but Lincoln was still fixated on grabbing her body, pulling, touching, making her heart race. That gave her an idea. She slowly stopped the kiss, leaving Lincoln dazed, wanting for more, but what Lori wanted to do would make the boy believe it was worth it.
  2729.  
  2730. -“Linc, don’t be so needy...you’ve seen nothing yet.”
  2731.  
  2732. -“Lori separated her arms and waited. Upon realizing what she wanted, Lincoln let out an audible gulp. He was nervous as the first time, but Lori, her touch, her eyes were transmitting him the calm he wasn’t able to find for himself. Even now, Lori was taking care of him. He grabbed the end of Lori’s shirt, slowly lifting it up, revealing her smooth skin, her slim figure, her bra...if Lincoln was blushing before, he was now on the next level. He’s been through this already, but it was like this everytime. He wondered if it was going to be like that every single time he was with a woman, as it seemed that he was never going to get used to this.
  2733. The touch of Lori’s fingers on his cheek cut his rambling short. With a grin, she lightly shook her attributes while looking at Lincoln’s groin. He was ready to go but as bad as Lori wanted it too, he’d have to earn it.
  2734. She placed her hands behind her head and waited for Lincoln to take the next step. Lincoln reached her back, trying to unhook the bra while she puffed her chest, pushing it against his face. She couldn’t help but giggle at how nervous he was. So cute.
  2735. After an eternal minute, he managed to unhook it. He moved it slowly and tossed it away. Now with her breasts free at complete display, Lincoln couldn’t do a thing but stare at them. Hungrily stare at them.
  2736.  
  2737. -“Seeing something you like” Playfully teased Lori.
  2738.  
  2739. -“C-can I touch them?”
  2740.  
  2741. -“I’ll be offended if you don’t.”
  2742. Lincoln carefully massaged her right breast, making her moan. The only one who could compare her in size was Leni, but it felt so different. Lori smiled at the sight of her little brother playing with her bust, lost on the landscape that was her body. But Lincoln didn’t want to play only, he also wanted to taste it, so he reached the nipple of the other breast his mouth. “Hey” Lori moaned “I didn’t give you permission to do that.”
  2743.  
  2744. -“S-sorry.” He stopped. Lori got upset. She didn’t tell him to stop, so, why would he do that? Maybe it was the time to take another step.
  2745.  
  2746. -“Don’t worry, Linc. But I’ve been thinking...you’ve seen one of my special places, but if you want to see the other one...” she got close to his ear and whispered: “I want to see something in return.”
  2747. She started rubbing his boner over the pants, playfully messing with the boy, she undid the button of his pants and moved the hand away. Lincoln took his pants in a hurry, consumed by nervousness.
  2748.  
  2749. -”Don’t rush it, Lincoln. You have to make sure your partner is enjoying it too.” Lori corrected Lincoln behavior, making him taking his time to remove his underwear. Lori enjoyed being in control, but this? She wasn’t simply enjoying it, his struggle, his hurryness, their yearning...It was making her wet.
  2750. The boy finally got rid of his briefs, and after covering for a second, he moved his hands away, revealing the complete package to Lori, something completely different and far bigger than the last time she saw it.
  2751. Good.
  2752. Lori stroke his erection repeatedly, making Lincoln tense every muscle, doing his best to hold his load. Lori decided to tease her brother a little further.
  2753. Stopping her hand, Lincoln was left trembling on his place, with a raging boner ready to explode.
  2754.  
  2755. -“Wh-wha-.”
  2756.  
  2757. -“Linc, you’ve been following my lead for a while, but never said what you wanted...“ the white-haired boy never complained about it, but she wanted to make this something they’ll remember their whole life. She also low-key wanted to be “above” her other sister, but that was something different. So she decided to leave Lincoln display again the dominance he showed when they were starting.”So tell me, Linc. What do you want?”
  2758.  
  2759. -“I-I-I want you!” The boy jumped on Lori, lying on top of her, rubbing his manhood against her shorts in a vain attempt at entering her. Lori didn’t try to stop it, she found it adorable, but she wanted to feel him inside too, so without halting his thrusts she tried to remove her shorts. But Lincoln wasn’t stupid, he realized he wasn’t doing it properly, he realized there was something between him and her entrance, so he brutally got rid of them, pulling with all his strength. He knew what he wanted and he was going to take it, which made Lori smile, biting her lower lip. Now, his cock was looming right in front of her slit, ready to pierce through it, so Lincoln looked up to Lori, who only smiled and said:
  2760.  
  2761. -“Do your best.” With a sweet voice, that also had some hints of lust... Placing his hands on her waist he thrust with all his strength, sending shivers through her body, but also cumming immediately. He pressed his face against her stomach, spasming as he shot all his juice inside his sister.
  2762. It was done, and t wasn’t ending there. Lori wanted more, she’s been longing for more, and she’ll have it. that’s what she thought at first until she heard her brother sniffing against her stomach.
  2763.  
  2764. -”What’s wrong, Lincoln? Did it-”
  2765. The boy looked up and she could see it. He was crying, yes, but he was also smiling. The greatest sight she could wish for at the moment.
  2766.  
  2767. -”It’s…” he started, trying his best to make his babbling understandable. “After all, you’ve-”
  2768.  
  2769. -”Lincoln.” Lori interrupted “I’m sorry.” The boy looked at her confused. It was all forgiven, they both knew him, but he had to tell him. for denying him the love of his family, for all that time of doubts, for hiding her feelings “I’m sorry, but now, please, do it for me. Leave it behind and think just in us. In this. I love you, I always did, and I’ll always do, one way or another.”
  2770. The boy locked eyes with Lori one more time giving him the confidence he needed to continue. Luna’s words resounded on his head: “They were going to be always there for him”.
  2771. He placed his hands on her sides and slowly started thrusting again. However, this time he was doing it more tenderly, with care, like if they were two lovers giving into each other, Lori started following his movements, moving her hips at his rhythm, finally fulfilling one of her darkest secrets, making them possibly the happiest siblings on earth.
  2772. Lori pressed his head against his chest, which he started to kiss with passion. She caressed his air as he fastened his pace. If what he told her was true, he had some endurance for being able to go like this for days.
  2773.  
  2774. -“Dealing with all of us gives you a lot of stamina, I see.” Lori joked between huffs.
  2775.  
  2776. -“S-seems so…” Lincoln wondered if Lisa’s pills had something to do with that, but that wasn’t important, she said they didn’t have any other effect and he preferred to trust his genius sister. Lincoln continued his assault as Lori kept one hand playing with his hair. But the other was reaching every part of his body: interlacing with his own hands, feeling his back arching trying to reach the deepest her insides allowed him to go, pinching those freckled buttcheeks...she couldn’t get enough.
  2777. Meanwhile, Lincoln was doing a similar job: lips, breasts, neck. He was making sure to kiss every part of her body.
  2778. They exchanged those signals of love for long. Everytime Lincoln pounded, she pushed his waist to help him, feeling her insides every inch of his manhood, milking it for everything it could give, and he was for sure going to give everything to her.
  2779. Lincoln fastened his pace when Lori grabbed his head and pressed it against her chest. She knew he was near finishing and she wanted to feel everything: his warmth, his skin, his tip kissing her womb...She wanted to feel her Lincoln. She needed him, she finally had him.
  2780. With a deep grunt, Lincoln started to shoot his goo, coating all her insides white while she pressed and pressed their bodies together...until the discharges ceased.
  2781. Lincoln let all his body as a dead weight on top of his sister, emotional and physically tired. He eyeballed Lori, who was huffing herself, recovering from her orgasm.
  2782. While resting under her brother, she started playing with a strand of his hair, humming and rocking her body.
  2783. She couldn’t call this happiness, but it felt right. It shouldn’t, but it did. She could stay like that forever, but she knew that for her, it was only this time. And it wasn’t going to last, so the memory of it will be perfect. She reached for her phone and took a selfie of both her and Lincoln.
  2784.  
  2785. -”Lori...if someone sees that...”
  2786.  
  2787. -”Nobody will. This is for me and me only.” Lincoln rubbed his cheek against her chest. That made her smile but…”don’t get too comfy, Linc-”. A sound in the vents stopped her. She sighed and mentalized about what was coming now. She looked at the source of the noise and clearly heard something going away. They had company.
  2788.  
  2789. -”Lincoln, put your clothes back.”
  2790.  
  2791. -”Wha-?”
  2792.  
  2793. -”I...We need to have a talk with our sisters.”
  2794. It wasn’t hard to find the clothes scattered across the room. Once they were again “decent”, they faced the door. Lincoln looked at Lori, she was far more nervous than him now. But she was the example to follow, she had to do it. The blonde reached latch of the door, opened and…
  2795. She expected a flock of girls, ready to jump on them, but there was only one. Leni.
  2796. She never left the second floor. She was sitting against the wall, her face between her knees. She didn’t realize that Lincoln and Lori were outside the room now.
  2797.  
  2798. -“Leni…?” Lincoln said. She jumped when hearing his voice. That’s when they were able to see the fashionista sister’s face.Her eyes were red, indicating she has been crying until not too long ago.
  2799.  
  2800. -“Leni, why are you here? How long…?” asked Lori
  2801.  
  2802. -”I...heard everything...Even the story...”
  2803.  
  2804. -”Leni, no...” Leni stood up and pressed her face against Lori’s shoulder, repressing her cries. This time, she understood everything on the first try.
  2805.  
  2806. -“I-I thought you were going to tell mom and dad, and then they’ll make someone take Linky away, but-but...I didn’t know...”
  2807.  
  2808. -“No one was supposed to, Leni.” the naive sister was sure the worst was going to happen. That her brother was going to disappear from her life, that everyone would think they’re freaks, that she’ll be forced to resent her sister for the rest of her life. But it was okay.
  2809. Simple.
  2810. No need for more.
  2811. Everything was okay now.
  2812. So she started to cry.
  2813. Lori enveloped Leni in a fraternal hug. They’ve been on bad terms for weeks, Lori being extra harsh on her roommate, so the fashionista felt relieved. she didn’t have to pretend to hate Lincoln anymore, she was again on good terms with Lori, and nothing bad happened to any of them.
  2814. While Lori and Leni were burying the hatchet, Lincoln noticed that Lucy and Lynn were peeking from the stairs. Lincoln began walking to them, which made Lynn flee. However, Lucy stayed.
  2815.  
  2816. -”It was you, right?” Lincoln asked. “In the vents.” Lucy nodded and looked downstairs. All the remaining sisters were there, expecting, not sure of what to do. Lisa took a step forward.
  2817.  
  2818. -”Male shibling, it hashn’t been an eashy tashk, but I managed to-”
  2819. Lincoln made a sign with his hand, indicating her to stop, and then he signaled everyone on the first floor go up to the second. Slowly, one by one, they went upstairs. Leni calmed down wrapped in by Lori’s arms, but when she saw the other sisters in there, she separated from the eldest sisters, for she had something to do.
  2820.  
  2821. -“You see” Lori started with a stern tone”...Lincoln has told me about...everything. Just...what were all of you thinking about!?
  2822.  
  2823. -“You can’t lecture us on that subject.” Lucy said. She knew about what she was talking about, she watched it in the first row. Lori exhaled, defeated. She was right.
  2824.  
  2825. -“…Secondly...all of you understand the situation we’re in, right?” 8 girls and 1 boy nodded.
  2826.  
  2827. “This...I don’t know what’s going to happen from now on, but...” Lori stopped for a second, looked at Lincoln before continuing “but we’ll cover and help each other, right? No one will be -” Lori couldn’t continue before every sibling started grouping around her: first Lincoln, then Leni, Lana...and so until everyone was part of the group hug. They were a united family again. “This is gonna be hard...and I’m still mad at you, Lynn” Lori added with difficulties, being right in the middle of the embrace. Lynn wanted to say something, but that would probably sour the moment. She was right, they still had a lot to talk about, how it started for everyone, how they were feeling, but for the moment, she decided to give in her siblings' blissful group cuddle.
  2828.  
  2829. -“Well, well, well, look at this!” While they were submerged in the hug, Mama Loud returned home, to see her children making amends. ”A few days ago I would’ve been unable to imagine all of you like this” The matriarch of the Louds was delighted at her kids' display of affect, but she wasn’t the only one. Lily, on her arms, was revolving, wanting to join her sisters and brother in the hug. Rita left her baby on the floor an waddled towards the group, hugging Lori’s leg. “I’m so glad all of you are on good terms again! You have to tell your father. He’ll be happy too.” Rita’s optimism clashed with the siblings' nervousness. Their mother was oblivious to everything, and for their own good, that way should remain, but that couldn’t ease the feeling of doing so behind her back. They’ll have to live with that for a while. All of them went downstairs. Rita offered to make each sibling their favorite dish because it was a special occasion. When mealtime was over they decided to watch a movie. There was your usual sibling fight about what to watch, but nothing serious.
  2830.  
  2831. Lynn Sr. returned home when the night was covering Royal Woods, and he was instantly surrounded by his 11 children. It was hard to believe they reconciled that fast, taking into account what he was witness of. Still, the boy’s enthusiasm and a little help his mother convinced Lynn Sr. that his son was being honest and wasn’t coerced by his sisters.
  2832. Dinnertime was the calmest and most entertaining in weeks, the youngest siblings alongside the grown-ups, sharing while dad told them about his business trip, and the sisters making plans now that they weren’t grounded anymore. It’ been the happiest not only Lincoln, but the whole family has been in months.
  2833.  
  2834. One after the other, they were finishing their meals and after a long and exhausting day, a good night of rest was what every member of the Loud family needed. There was so much to assimilate first. Seems it was going well enough, a good start, almost like a dream. Still not sure if it was a good or a bad one, that was what Lincoln couldn’t stop rambling about. The next day was important, but, what was he supposed to do, to say?
  2835. His train of thoughts was interrupted by the door opening.
  2836.  
  2837. -“Male shibling unit, may I have a convershation with you?
  2838.  
  2839. -“Sure. Something wrong Lisa?”
  2840.  
  2841. -“I’m letting you know that deshpite what happened earlier in the morning, thish scheme ish doomed, sho I’m ashking you to reconshider my offer again.”
  2842.  
  2843. -“Lisa, I already told you, I don’t want you to wipe any memory, it’ll make it even worse!” The little genius looked at her brother for a moment and took a deep breath.
  2844.  
  2845. -”Sheems your decishion ish definitive...” She sighed “The world of maths, physhicsh, chemishtry ish completely different from what people conshider “the normal world”. Everything’sh gotta be exact, perfect, your calculationsh precishe for everything to work ash intended...”
  2846.  
  2847. -”Lisa?”
  2848.  
  2849. -”What I’m trying to shay ish...my calculationsh are mosht of the time correct, but I feel like thish time, for everything to be perfect, I have to be wrong.”
  2850.  
  2851. -“Lisa, I told you that I-”.
  2852.  
  2853. -”I want to believe you brother but...I’m jusht letting you know that when the time arrivesh, I’ll make shure I’m “the one”.”
  2854. Lisa was indeed, stubborn, for her, the world had no secrets, the logical world. But the sentimental one was different as she said, and she wanted to understand it as easily as she did with the other. She wanted for herself what opened the door for her to that weird, yet comfy world. Lincoln’s lips formed a coy grin. After all, she was only a kid who wanted to spend her time with her brother. Maybe not in the best way.
  2855.  
  2856. -“Oh, before I go.” She said, already outside the room, without facing Lincoln. ” I took notice that our shishtersh want to have their own talk with you. I came here firsht becaushe Ï felt thish had to be dishcusshed in firsht place. But don’t worry, it sheemed any of them had shecond intentionsh”
  2857.  
  2858. -“I almost prefer it.”
  2859.  
  2860. -“Lincoln, I conshider that inside our family, you have a somewhat above average brain capacity, sho...I think you’ll end up doing the right thing., ”
  2861.  
  2862. -“I am already.”
  2863. Lisa smiled at the statement, but he couldn’t see it. She closed the door leaving the boy waiting for the visits there were yet to come, according to Lisa.
  2864. The second one took a few minutes to arrive. Not taking into account Lisa, who was thinking one step ahead, the first one to be brave enough to do this was the sister who loved to win. Knocking gently on the door, she opened and peeked inside without saying anything. When Lincoln waved her to come in, he realized she was holding something. At first sight, it seemed like some rag, but closely, he could see it was a torn shirt. Lincoln looked away.
  2865.  
  2866. -“Hey, bro…”
  2867.  
  2868. -“Hey, Lynn…”
  2869. An awkward silence followed. Lynn got close to the bed where Lincoln was sitting and dropped her weight on it, lying in there for a few seconds before speaking up.
  2870.  
  2871. -“How it is, Lincoln?”
  2872.  
  2873. -“How it is...what?”
  2874.  
  2875. -”Things, between us. You didn’t answer this morning.”
  2876.  
  2877. -“Do you think we are fine?”
  2878.  
  2879. -“Yes...I don’t know, I’m not good with all this stuff.”
  2880.  
  2881. -”Why did you bring that.” asked Lincoln, pointing at what once was a shirt.
  2882.  
  2883. -”Oh, this...Yeah, I thought you may want it...”
  2884.  
  2885. -”Why would I?”
  2886.  
  2887. -”You can have it as a trophy, to remember the only time you won against me because it’s not happening again.” She said with a grin from ear to ear on her face. Lincoln frowned at the statement, but also smiled.
  2888.  
  2889. -”Oh, yeah? We’ll see about that!”
  2890. Lincoln jumped on Lynn, wrestling her, but in a few seconds, she was on top of his back, stretching his arm, making him tap out.
  2891.  
  2892. -”Okay, okay! You win!”
  2893.  
  2894. -”Of course I do!” She exclaimed, releasing his arm. However, she didn’t get off Lincoln. Instead, she rested her chin on the top of his head, and relaxed her body and closed her eyes.
  2895.  
  2896. -”This is fine...We’re fine.”
  2897.  
  2898. -”It’s the same as always, Lynn.” He said, trying to move.
  2899.  
  2900. -”I know. It’s how we are, we shouldn’t try to change each other” She finally moved away and left the bed “Still, I keep thinking you have to put a bit of muscle in that body. How about you train with me?”
  2901.  
  2902. -”That’s a terrible idea.”
  2903.  
  2904. -”C’mon, Linc. It’ll be fun! We’ll start tomorrow morning, and-”
  2905.  
  2906. -”No such thing!” Lynn was interrupted by Lola, who followed by Lana, irrupted in the room.
  2907.  
  2908. -”Yeah!” added Lana “tomorrow he’s coming to the park with me!”
  2909.  
  2910. -”Your wish! He’s the special guest of my special tea party, he must be well dressed and the first one in there!”
  2911. Lincoln and Lynn watched how the twins were on the verge of starting a fight, he decided to intercede before it escalated further.
  2912.  
  2913. -”Girls, I’m sorry, but I kinda have a plan already for tomorrow.”
  2914.  
  2915. -”You do?” Lynn mocked. Lincoln wanted to retort, but Lola wasn’t going to stay quiet.
  2916.  
  2917. -“EXCUSES AGAIN!?”
  2918.  
  2919. -“It-It’s not an excuse, I’ve got something to do for real. It’s...It’s important for me...”
  2920. Lola winced at him, he seemed serious about it, so she decided to let it go.
  2921.  
  2922. -“Fine! But you’ll have to come to the evening one! Assistance mandatory!”
  2923.  
  2924. -“Alright, alright. It’ll be my pleasure.”
  2925.  
  2926. -“And what about me?” pouted Lana “That’s going to take almost all the evening. By then every good spot in the park is already taken...”
  2927.  
  2928. -”Then I’ll go with you the day after tomorrow then. Don’t worry, your big brother promises it.”
  2929.  
  2930. -“Really?” Lana asked with beaming eyes.
  2931.  
  2932. -”Hey, if you really want to go tomorrow, I’m still looking for a partner.” Lynn noted.“Hope you can keep it up.”
  2933.  
  2934. -”I’m not sure if I want to go with you.”
  2935.  
  2936. -”Nonsense! It’ll be great.” Lynn emphasized as she grabbed Lana and Lola. “But now, it’s night time, so say goodbye to Linc and go to bed.”
  2937.  
  2938. -”Don’t forget, you have an appointment with your favorite princess, Linky!”
  2939.  
  2940. -”And remember that you promised me!”
  2941.  
  2942. -”Whatever.” said Lynn, still carrying the twins. Before leaving the room, she turned her head and said, with a sweet voice “Goodnight, Lincoln.”
  2943. Lincoln was caught unprepared. There was something about that voice that made him blush. Since when was she able of doing that? Her way of dealing with Lola and Lana, how she was behaving before the twins entered the room, those last words...It was...feminine? He thought Lynn was unable of such thing, but...he wouldn’t mind seeing it again. Also, he was surprised by the twins carefree demeanor. They knew what they’ve done and all that involved it, but it didn’t seem to affect them in the least. What’s more, they wanted to spend more time with their brother, as if it wasn’t that much. He decided to roll for a while with it, but at some moment, he’ll have an in-depth talk with the twins. A bit early in age, but something necessary given the situation.While he thought about how to take on that delicate subject, he noticed Luan, motionless, standing in front of his room.
  2944.  
  2945. -“Luan, something wrong?”
  2946. Luan went on and opened the window of Lincoln’s room, leaving the kid confused. She took some distance, looked at him and inhaled deeply. She took out her horn, and prepared to throw it away. Or so she was gonna do it, but Lincoln, the one who wanted most to get rid of that thing stopped her.
  2947.  
  2948. -“Luan,I know you love that thing, you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to.”
  2949.  
  2950. -“But I promised you.”
  2951.  
  2952. -“Yeah, but I know you love finishing your jokes with that thing, and even if I don’t like it, that would be changing yourself, and we all have learnt that’s the worst for us.”
  2953.  
  2954. -“Heh, you’re dork.”
  2955.  
  2956. -“It’s part of my charm, you know?”
  2957.  
  2958. -“Oh, ‘charmed’ to meet that part of yourself!” Luan laughed, and Lincoln tried to hide a few snickers.
  2959.  
  2960. -“But seriously, I prefer that thing away from me.”
  2961.  
  2962. -“I’ll do an exception with you, Lincoln. After all…I owe you my life.”
  2963.  
  2964. -“I’ve told you, that fall was-.” Luan stole a fast peck from Lincoln before he could finish the sentence. He pressed his lips with the tip of his fingers while looking at Luan, who had a smug smile on her face.
  2965.  
  2966. -“There’ll be more rewards for you, my hero...”And so , she honked the horn right on his face, thing that made Lincoln jump, much to Luan’s delight. It was in her nature. The girl left licking her lips, with a satisfied look, and a grin showing the fullness of her braced smile. Maybe that was going to happen more from now on…
  2967.  
  2968. -“Why was Luan smiling like that. She told you one of her jokes?”
  2969.  
  2970. -“That...was no joke, Leni.” He said scratching the back of his head. “But anyways, how can I help you?”
  2971.  
  2972. -“Oh, it’s nothing, I’m just making sure my favorite brother is doing well.”
  2973.  
  2974. -“I’m your only brother, Leni.”
  2975.  
  2976. -”Well, that’s why you’re totes my favorite.” Lincoln couldn’t help but smile. Typical Leni.“But being honest...” she continued that thing we did-”
  2977.  
  2978. -“Don’t say it out loud! Mom and dad-”
  2979.  
  2980. -“I know! The can’t find out, but...I need to know...Was special to you? Like it was for me?”
  2981.  
  2982. -“What? Of course! It was...uh...” Leni looked at her brother, expecting, with shining illusion in her eyes. Lincoln, don’t screw it up now.” Everything I do with you girls is special for me, but that, what we shared...goes beyond that. Know what I mean?” She did. It was the same for both of them. So she said what’s been on her mind for a long time.
  2983.  
  2984. -”I love you, Linky.”
  2985.  
  2986. -“I love you too, Leni.” This time there was no hesitation in his voice. He could tell that to any of his sisters without a hint of doubt.
  2987.  
  2988. -“I know, silly.” She said, trapping him in a hug, pressing his head against her chest.After the display of pure love by the blonde, she left the room tiptoeing. It’s always been a mystery what’s inside her head, but there was one thing for sure: it was never something bad, she wasn’t able of such thing.
  2989.  
  2990. -“Hey, bro. Got a sec?” Not even a minute passed until the next sister made act of presence.
  2991.  
  2992. -“Of course, Luna.”
  2993.  
  2994. -”I’ll not beat around the bush. I wanna know how are things with the others?”
  2995.  
  2996. -”What do you mean?”
  2997.  
  2998. -”Remember when I found you and Luan? More or less the same questions.” Luna had a stern expression. She was serious.
  2999.  
  3000. -”It’s...complicated. But we know the risks, and what we’re doing. No one’s forcing anyone to anything.”
  3001.  
  3002. -”That’s gooooooood, bro.” Luna said with a more relaxed tone. Her older sister preoccupation was real, it was back then too. Luna cared deeply about Lincoln’s well-being, and no one would break that, not even her sisters. She played her part for too long when Lori made the girls turn against Lincoln, but that’s in the past now, she had to make for all the wasted time. “One more thing, had quite the “creators block these last weeks, but last two days have been quite productive, y’know? So, when I finish my latest pieces, want to hang out and listen to’em? Been a while since last time.”
  3003.  
  3004. -“Of course! Just warn me a bit ahead of time so I can be free and we have a deal!”
  3005.  
  3006. -“Awesome. We’ll be rocking for weeks, bro!” Luna said in a cheerful way, tone that changed to a sultry one as she kept speaking.”But I’m letting you know that this concert comes...with a special visit to the backstage. Follow me?” She added with a wicked smile
  3007.  
  3008. -“Lu-Luna?”
  3009.  
  3010. -“Bro, I’ve seen the gates of heaven once, and you can be damn sure I plan returning there soon. And boy, you’re coming with me.” She finished, her index dancing on the boy’s chin. He tried to babble some words, but it was futile. He saw the difference between his sisters when addressing the situation they all were in. While still trying to recover about what Luna said, she winked and waved him as she went to her room. She was the only one who managed to make his face turn crimson red. Even after what he’s been through, she made it sound so wrong, and yet so right.
  3011. Lori made him return to the real world.
  3012.  
  3013. -“Twerp, lights out. It’s late.” She calmly said. Time went fast as he was talking with his sisters. They needed to talk with him after everything, but with Lori...he was the one searching for answers.
  3014.  
  3015. -“Lori, I think I need advice…” The eldest Loud sister, got closer to the boy, sitting beside him.
  3016.  
  3017. -“What’s it?”
  3018.  
  3019. -“I’ve been thinking about what you told me, about Bobby and-”
  3020.  
  3021. -“Linc...It’s something I know, but also something Bobby avoids talking of. If you want to know, you’ll have to ask them.”
  3022.  
  3023. -“But what if she takes it the wrong way? I...”
  3024.  
  3025. -“You’re like an open book, Linc. You want to know about it because you also want her to know about…”us”, right?” Lincoln nodded. “You know what can happen if you tell anyone else right?” Lincoln nodded again. “Lincoln...it was beautiful, it was something I needed...but it was also a one-time thing for us. I love Bobby, all the support he’s given me all the good times...you understand that?”
  3026.  
  3027. -“Yes…”
  3028. -“But even so, I’m willing to put it on the line and tell him, because I have to. Like you have to do it with Ronnie Anne.”.
  3029.  
  3030. -“I know.” Lincoln replied. She knelt and put herself at his eye-level level.
  3031.  
  3032. -“I promised you all, I’ll keep you safe. And I know Bobby wants the same for his family. He won’t hurt us, but the others...I don’t know. If something goes the wrong way, we might have to do something drastic...Hiding away, moving out...I don’t know. So, even knowing that, you’re going to keep up with this?” He swallowed, but the knot in his throat won’t go away. But he made a decision long ago, and he was going to keep his promises, so filled with determination, he looked Lori in the eyes and nodded one last time.
  3033.  
  3034. -”I like her, but we’ll need to know everything about each other.”
  3035.  
  3036. -“Oh, so sure of yourself. I like how you look when you do that.” The girl pressed her forehead against his. She trusted him, she knew he’ll do whatever’s on his hands to make sure it went well, and she was gonna do the same.
  3037.  
  3038. -“Time to sleep Lincoln. Tomorrow is a big day.”
  3039.  
  3040. -”Yeah...Wait, how do you know it’s tomorrow?”
  3041.  
  3042. -”Because I looked your phone”
  3043.  
  3044. -“Lori!” He groaned as she left the room. Can’t someone have a bit of privacy in this house?
  3045. The white-haired boy put on his pajamas, tucked on the bed, snuggled Bun-bun and got ready to the first night of true sleep in days.
  3046. Or that’s what he thought. There was something not letting him fall asleep. It felt like an uncanny presence, someone watching over him. He knew perfectly what that was.
  3047.  
  3048. -“Hi, Luce.”
  3049.  
  3050. -“How strange, you didn’t jump scared.”
  3051.  
  3052. -“Right now I’m scared of other things...
  3053.  
  3054. -“I know, I’ve heard.”
  3055. The goth girl got close to the bed and waited. After doubting for a moment, Lincoln lifted the sheets, allowing her to lay by his side.
  3056. Lucy was the first one taking the step, she was sure her feelings were the strongest so after hearing the conversation with Lori, she was also scared. Scared of losing everything. That may be the last peaceful night in the house, and she wanted to spend it on his company.
  3057.  
  3058. -“Lincoln…”
  3059. The boy gently ruffled her hair, trying to calm her down.
  3060.  
  3061. -”Big brother has everything under control, don’t worry.”
  3062.  
  3063. -“...” Lucy recoiled, she knew there was nothing she could do to make her brother change his mind. So if his plan going wrong was a possibility, she had to tell him everything. “I don’t want to be separated from you when I just shared my deepest feelings. That won’t change.”
  3064. Lincoln stayed quiet for a while, thinking. It was risky, and unfair to them, but...
  3065.  
  3066. -“You know, Lucy...We could return to the old days. When you wrote poems and I listened to them. When you and Lynn fought daily because of your opposite personalities. When-”
  3067.  
  3068. -“No” She cut ”I don’t want to return there. I want these memories to live forever, I want to create new ones for you. My poems, my life is empty if my source of inspiration isn’t with me.”
  3069.  
  3070. -“You know... I’m kind of surprised how ok are all of you with this.”
  3071.  
  3072. -“I don’t know the other's motivations, but I know mine. Now I have it and I’m scared of losing it. Our souls will always be one, nothing matters if I’m with you, and nothing will if I’m not.”
  3073.  
  3074. -“I...understand?.”
  3075.  
  3076. -”Hold me, brother.”
  3077. Lincoln passed her arm below her and pulled her towards him. He understood Lucy’s concerns, so he will have to do his part as older brother and make sure she was okay. “You are the one who understands me the most. I’ve given you my everything and I’d do it again. Don’t take that from me.”
  3078.  
  3079. -”Lucy...tomorrow-”
  3080.  
  3081. -”Sssh, if the day that has to come might take everything away from me, let the night be the only thing I wish for.”
  3082. Lincoln pressed tightened the hug, thing Lucy welcomed. She only wanted to feel protected, safe with him, feel his warmth, feel him. Lincoln couldn’t deny her such thing because she was right. What if the worst happened? Again, doubts assaulted the only son of the Loud family, but died down when he realized Lucy had fallen asleep on him.
  3083. He was hours away from finding how it’ll play out, so he decided to enjoy the night and sleep until the time came.
  3084.  
  3085.  
  3086. Lynn entered the house, carrying Lana in her back. The brash twin could barely move after trying to keep up with her sporty sister. Too much and too early for the little blonde.
  3087.  
  3088. -When you said “in the morning", I didn’t think you meant “this” in the morning.” She complained.
  3089.  
  3090. -”Come on, Lana, it wasn’t that much! Besides, you weren’t complaining when you were chasing those animals. Think you could’ve seen them at a later hour?”
  3091.  
  3092. -”Guess you’re right...but my body hurts!”
  3093.  
  3094. -”Because it’s the first time. You’ll do better tomorrow!”
  3095.  
  3096. -”TOMORROW!? Just let me in my bed now, I want to sleep!”
  3097.  
  3098. -”Fine, fine.”
  3099. Lynn went to the second floor and tucked Lana in her bed with care of not interrupting Lola's beauty sleep and facing her wrath in the process. Lana waved her big sister goodbye. Lynn closed the door as quietly as possible to not disturb the peace, but when she was leaving, she saw Lucy going out of Lincoln’s room.
  3100.  
  3101. -”What were you doing in there?” the jock asked.
  3102.  
  3103. -”I spent the night with our brother.”
  3104.  
  3105. -”What!? You did-!”
  3106.  
  3107. -”Sleep. And nothing else” she said in her usual tone.
  3108.  
  3109. -”Oh...Then tell him to wake up. Didn’t he have to do something in the morning? He ditched me for it...”
  3110.  
  3111. -”He wasn’t there when I finished my slumber. I didn’t hear him leave but...” she stopped for a second and licked her lips “I can tell he said goodbye to me” she finished with a faint blush.
  3112.  
  3113. -”Pssh, whatever. Wonder where he went.”
  3114.  
  3115. -”To make sure everyone’s happy.”
  3116.  
  3117. -”Huh?” Lucy dedicated a smile to her roommate. She didn’t get exactly what the goth said, but Lincoln surely had a plan or something. The brunette went to the kitchen to eat something to regain her energies. Much to her surprise, Luan was there, and she was...baking a pie?
  3118.  
  3119. -“Hey, Luan. What are you doing?”
  3120.  
  3121. -“Oh, I’m just going to make sure Linc’s having sweet dreams!”
  3122.  
  3123. -“Good luck with that, Lucy told me he isn’t here.”
  3124.  
  3125. -”Oh...That means he’s seeing Ronnie Anne...” said Luan, turning her head with a disappointed expression.
  3126.  
  3127. -”Wait, Ronnie Anne!? Why? And how you know that?”
  3128.  
  3129. -”I heard him and Lori talking about it. She’s who started this whole mess...Heh, it’s funny.”
  3130.  
  3131. -”But why? I thought he was...He had...”
  3132.  
  3133. -”You know how he is, Lynn. He wants the best for everyone, and that includes her.”
  3134. Lynn frowned. She was right, that dork, always with some stupid plan to make sure things goes as he believes right and there was nothing they could do about it now. Lynn’s daydreaming got interrupted by Luan’s usual self.
  3135.  
  3136. -“Well, it would be a pie-ty to waste this!” She said as she smashed the pie on her sister’s face.
  3137.  
  3138. -“LUUUUAAAAANNN!”
  3139.  
  3140. -“Come on, how can you be so sour after that?” she cackled. She needed that laugh. Surprisingly, Lynn didn’t jump on her and took a taste of the dessert covering her face.
  3141.  
  3142. -“You’re lucky this tastes good.”
  3143.  
  3144. -”Of course it does, I don’t do things half-baked!” Lynn groaned. She bought that one upon herself.
  3145.  
  3146.  
  3147. Meanwhile, Lincoln was marching to a near park, where he agreed to meet Ronnie Anne. He had clear what he had to do, but not a single idea of how he had to do it. He arrived in time, so he started looking for her, wanting to see her and not at the same time. It could get ugly easily.
  3148. He localized her sitting on a bench, tapping her fingers. Upon getting closer, he realized she was wearing her skating gear and had another one besides her. It was clear what her idea for the encounter was...
  3149.  
  3150. -“Hi, Ronnie Anne...” The girl got close to him with an annoyed expression “It’s been a while, right?”
  3151.  
  3152. -“Yeah, lame-o. More than 2 months since the last time.” You don’t need to be a genius to deduce she was mad. About losing every contact with her friend for so long, about her being the one who had to take the step and send the message, about not knowing why he disappeared...but being the first time they saw in weeks, she couldn’t be mad at him, so she shoved her fist on her arm and handed the spare gear. “Come with me Lincoln, I want to show you my new tricks. And while we are at it, you’re gonna learn new ones”
  3153.  
  3154. -“You know skating isn’t my strong suit..”
  3155.  
  3156. -“That’s why you’re learning with the best, lame-o!” She said, full of herself. He wouldn’t admit it in front of her but he missed her boastful attitude. It was a key piece of her personality, and after that long time...yeah, Lincoln missed Ronnie Anne.
  3157. Ronnie got to show off the fruit of her practice, while Lincoln went on with the basics. It went for little more than an hour, until Lincoln, after 2 scary falls, wanted to take a break. The girl condoned it, as she didn’t want to break him so soon. Still, they had fun and enjoyed each other company, laughing and messing the one with the other.
  3158. They looked for a quiet place to sit and catch a breath.
  3159.  
  3160. -“That was fun! Dude, we could've done this earlier if you didn’t vanish so suddenly.” She said after slapping his back. Lincoln thought for a moment that she wanted to know about it, but what could he tell her? He decided to take the safest route for the moment.
  3161.  
  3162. -“Things in home have been a bit...strange. Don’t know how to say it...”
  3163.  
  3164. -“Hey, I know how family can be at times, lame-o. Is everything okay?”
  3165.  
  3166. -“No..not yet..”
  3167.  
  3168. -“Not yet?”
  3169.  
  3170. -“Actually, I wasn't sure if I could make it here today, you know?”
  3171.  
  3172. -“Why’s that? It’s not like we’re doing something bad.”
  3173.  
  3174. -”Yeah, we aren’t...” Lincoln gulped, hesitated. He wanted, he had to tell her, but before he had to know. What happened to her and Bobby? Was it as bad as what he and his sisters did? It was delicate, he couldn’t ask her directly about it.
  3175. Wait, why he couldn't? She’d do it if the roles were reversed, but...he didn’t have the guts. But all Lori told him… Ronnie Anne looked at the nervous wreck that was beside her and started to worry, but before asking him if he was okay, he clenched his fists and started talking.
  3176.  
  3177. -”Y-you know, Lori told me a thing, and...”
  3178.  
  3179. -”Ugh, did Bobby said something to her so she could tell you and then you passed the mess<age to me? If it’s because I ate his dinner the other day, I already-”
  3180.  
  3181. -No!...No...Do you know how Lori and Bobby met?”
  3182.  
  3183. -”He told me something about the school psychologist making him meet someone like him.”
  3184.  
  3185. -”What do you mean “someone alike”?”
  3186.  
  3187. -”I don’t know, someone with his own problems or something like that, I barely remember.” But the increasing nervousness in her voice delated her. She remembered, and it was something she wanted to avoid talking.
  3188.  
  3189. -”...What problems, Ronnie Anne?”
  3190.  
  3191. -“I don’t remember, okay?” Nervousness shifted to angriness “Besides, if you have enough energy to talk, you have enough energy to go back to-”
  3192.  
  3193. -”Because Lori told me about what her problem was...and it...it involved me, you know?” Words hard to say, the knot in his throat barely allowing him to continue, but his will was stronger. “And I also know that Bobby’s problem had to do with-”
  3194.  
  3195. -”Lincoln. Stop talking. Now.” Usually, that coming from someone like Ronnie Anne would be interpreted as a threat, and she probably believed it was, but it was a plea. Not now, not him. She wasn’t ready.
  3196.  
  3197. -”Ronnie, I want to-”
  3198.  
  3199. -”SHUT UP! YOU KNOW NOTHING!”
  3200.  
  3201. -”Yeah, I know nothing! But I want to-”
  3202. Without giving him time to react, she charged unto him, easily tackling him to the ground. The sound of the discussion gathered the looks of the little people that were around. Ronnie, on top of the boy, clenched her fists, ready to throw a direct to Lincoln’s face, but stopped her arm as it was in the air, gritting her teeth. Lincoln struggled to get out from under her, but Ronnie’s weight was too much for him.
  3203.  
  3204. -”Ronnie Anne, p-please, we can-” What he saw then, made his heart sink. The toughest student in school, one of the strongest girls he has ever met, right there, was shedding tears on top of him, yet she wasn’t able to unleash all that was consuming her at the moment. At least, not unto him.Slowly, Lincoln managed to move, still scared of the girl’s possible reaction. Little by little, he grabbed her arms, barely meeting resistance. What was happening? “Let’s...let’s go elsewhere.” he said, after seeing all the eyes nailed on them.
  3205. He guided her to a semi-hided place in the park, none of them saying a word. Ronnie Anne sat on the grass, not looking up at any moment. Lincoln was unsure of what to do. He wanted to know, but he didn’t think of what she may want. What she may feel. He made this mistake already, he had to do something, but… “I...I’m going for something to drink, if you wait her-” But as he was getting up, the girl grabbed his polo and made him sat by her side again, speaking for the first time since the fight.
  3206.  
  3207. -”Why are you doing this to me?”
  3208.  
  3209. -”I don’t...I need to know.”
  3210.  
  3211. -”what you want to know? I did something horrible without even realizing it was bad, and now it disgusts me, I disgust myself...”
  3212.  
  3213. -”You can tell me, Ronnie Anne.”
  3214.  
  3215. -”You...you’ll hate me if I do...”
  3216. The boy then sat in front of her and carefully lifted her head with his hand, looking her in the eyes. “I swear that I won’t. I promise that I won’t leave you whatever it is.” His eyes were reassuring, his words so welcoming and that beamful smile...it was the first thing that caught the girl attention when they first met and still does it to this day.
  3217. Resigned, Ronnie Anne started to tell a story, a story that started kind of innocently, after a 6 years Ronnie Anne caught her parents getting intimate. They just told her it’s something people who love each other a lot do and let it aside, believing it’d be enough for the little girl. But it wasn’t. What she saw, she couldn’t make it away, it was on her head, at all times. But it wasn’t because she was traumatized, no. She was interested, she wanted to know more. It went down when she thought about the words her parents told her: “Two people who love each other a lot”. Then it was something she could do with the most affectionate and caring person she knew. One she loved a lot, and for sure he loved her back. her brother. Roberto.
  3218. The next piece was put together when she had the dubious luck of finding him in his room discovering himself. She wanted to know first-hand what that was, and how it felt despite her short age, so she jumped on him, and the boy confused and hormone-driven, didn’t fight back, thing he regretted for a long time.
  3219. The worst was that it wasn’t a one-time thing. It wasn’t usual, but Bobby and Ronnie Anne had more than one encounter, following a similar pattern: she’d be the one who starts it, and she’ll threat him to tell their parents if he didn’t give in. Why didn’t he want it? She loved him. Or he didn’t anymore?
  3220. As years passed, Bobby grew sullen, quiet worrying his family in the way. But he never told anyone, as he knew the consequences. By then, Ronnie was well aware of what she had done, and stopped doing so. She barely could look at her brother. She broke him when she only wanted to show him how she loved him, to be happy.
  3221. She felt horrible during that time, but she had to bottle it up, to not raise more questions and to not worry her parents.
  3222. Things started getting better when, after speaking to some professional in school, Bobby started to look more cheerful, smiling again, because he got himself a girlfriend. and that girlfriend had a brother whom she enjoyed spend time with and hang around.
  3223. Things were good, she could forget now, because even after what she did to bobby, he wasn’t angry at her at any moment, he never held any ill-feeling for her...
  3224. He was kind, he looked for others before himself. Qualities she saw on the white-haired boy.
  3225. She could’ve broken her family, but it was settled now...or so she thought, because the day she lost contact with Lincoln, she felt like things were going to crumble again...
  3226.  
  3227. “...And when we finally get to see each other...I end up telling you this... when I think I can finally stop looking back, this happens. I’m a monster, Lincoln.”
  3228. The boy was sitting there, immobile.It was something he could have never imagine. It was much more than alike. Lori and Bobby met by chance, because of a sibling obsession with another. It was ironic, almost funny. Lincoln couldn’t hold a snicker when thinking about it. It was like a bad joke. His laugh was interrupted by Ronnie Anne's incredulous look.
  3229.  
  3230. -”Are you laughing at me?” She said with anger, her eyes red, not sure if because of anger or holding back tears. Lincoln quickly corrected her.
  3231.  
  3232. -”O-of course not! It’s just-”
  3233.  
  3234. -”It’s just that you believe it’s a joke, huh? That I’m just messing with you? Well not!” Pent-up rage was visible in her tone. She opened to him and he laughed? It was something nobody else knew, and he trusted him, only to be met with laughter. “If it wasn’t for that bitchy sister of yours, Bobby may not have been the same ever again. You know now!? Happy!? Hate me already!?”
  3235.  
  3236. -”No! It’s just...I found it funny, you know?”
  3237.  
  3238. -”Funny? What’s so funny on a sister almost ruining her brother’s life? I...I...h-had sex with my brother, Lincoln, without even knowing what I was doing! How can you not hate me…?” It was like she wanted him to do it, she deserved it. Things shouldn’t have been “fixed” so easily, but they did, she felt guilty for it, she was. “...I’m a monster, Lincoln.”
  3239.  
  3240. -“You are not a monster Ronnie! And I...I can’t hate you. I know it’s not easy but I...I understand what you feel.”
  3241.  
  3242. -“You understand!? Can you even imagine how it would feel if one of your sisters assaulted you?” Now he was the one who grabbed her hoodie and pulled her back to the ground. She told her biggest secret, now it was his time.
  3243.  
  3244. -“Ronnie…if this 2 months I disappeared was because...”
  3245. He took a deep breath and started the story.
  3246. How his sisters made him feel unwanted inside his own family. The night his father drew the line. How the first one to be with him was Lucy, and how the others followed. How his actions led to this very moment. As he was telling the story, he was attentive at Ronnie’s reactions. Confusion and disbelief when he started. Surprise when he reached the Lucy part, weirded at times, but he could swear he heard him hold back a chuckle when he told him how Luna acted or how he managed to “beat” Lynn.
  3247. Because it wasn’t that different, because Lincoln did truly understand, because they were talking about it, right here, right now, there was only a thing she could say when he finished the story.
  3248.  
  3249. -“Woah…”
  3250.  
  3251. -“I know it’s not the same, but-” as he was speaking, Ronnie punched him in the guts, making him drop immediately on his knees, where he received another one in the nose, which started to bleed a little.Still feeling numb, he looked up and whined.
  3252.  
  3253. -“Whyyyyy?”
  3254.  
  3255. -“That’s for cheating on me.” She said as she looked for something in her pockets.
  3256.  
  3257. -“B-but we are not a couple…”
  3258. Ronnie glared at him backing up her fist again, to which Lincoln cowered. Instead of hitting him again, she moved away his arms and pressed a handkerchief to his nose.
  3259.  
  3260. -“Are you okay?” Ronnie asked, looking away from him.
  3261.  
  3262. -“I’m bleeding...”
  3263.  
  3264. -“I’ve seen you taking worse! But I wasn’t asking...whatever, forget it.”
  3265.  
  3266. -“I was scared at first, of what could happen if the others found out, but now...I only want my sisters to accept and be happy with what they are. But others-”
  3267.  
  3268. -“I can’t forgive you.”
  3269.  
  3270. -“What?”
  3271.  
  3272. -”I’ve been miserable, repenting for years, and you, how can you shrug it off so easily? And what about me? Huh? You prefer your sisters more than me?”
  3273.  
  3274. -”I-I-I didn’t say such thing!”
  3275.  
  3276. -“But it’s obvious, they’re sooooo lovey-dovey with you! And you accepted so easily to...fuck them!”
  3277.  
  3278. -”Easily!?”
  3279.  
  3280. -”Y-yeah! You only started dating me because Lori forced you! Bet you’d prefer to be with them now.”
  3281. -”Then why I’m here?” The kids looked at each other for a while. Why? After their confessions will be easy to simply go away, pretending nobody said such thing. But they were there, because they wanted it to work. “You know Ronnie...the reason of what my sisters did is you...they were scared that you’d take me away and their feelings would be left unrequited, because of you...I really, l-l-l-”
  3282.  
  3283. -“No...No...No!” She stood up quickly and grabbed Lincoln by the neck of his polo during the process, planting a passionate kiss on his lips. After exploring his mouth with her tongue, she separated, leaving Lincoln dazed. “I won’t lose you!” She exclaimed, leaving the boy confused.
  3284.  
  3285. -“What?”
  3286.  
  3287. -“I don’t care what you did with them!. That blonde bitch, that stupid jock or with that pink gremling!”
  3288.  
  3289. -“Hey, don’t talk about my sisters like that!”
  3290.  
  3291. -“I don’t care! They tried to take you away from me, and I’m showing them their place! I-I don’t care about what they’ve done and I don’t care if you know what I did with my brother. I WANT TO BE WITH YOU!” The boy blushed heavily at the confession, but Ronnie didn’t finish. “You...I need to understand it, how can you all be so happy about it, even if it was 10 times worse than what I did.”
  3292.  
  3293. -“I’d say it was exactly 9 times worse.” Ronnie unleashed another fist at his stomach. Doubling in pain, he understood why he received that one. Without giving him time to recover, she dragged his arm to where their gears were.
  3294.  
  3295. -“Grab’em. You’re carrying them to my house. I haven’t forgiven you yet, you know? You’ll have to do a lot more. Everything I say.”
  3296. -“I guess it’s fair...” He sheepishly smiled. He placed everything inside her bag and put it on his back. which was lighter than he expected. Before taking the first step, Ronnie clung to his arm without looking at him. His smile grew wider
  3297.  
  3298. -”Don’t get the wrong idea. I’m mad at you, and I want to have a talk with your sisters.”
  3299.  
  3300. -”I’m sure they also want one with you.” he answered.
  3301.  
  3302. -”You’re mine, lame-o. They can try whatever they want. I’ll show’em, Lynn, Lola, Leni or Lucy. I’ll show them they’re second to me.”
  3303.  
  3304. -”I think that the one who’s gonna give you more problems is Lisa. I’m actually scared of what she may try to do.”
  3305.  
  3306. -”I can take it.” The girl smirked.
  3307. The future was unsure. Hell, he still wasn't sure about how the relationship with his sisters was. And how will this change things at home?Too many questions that were impossible to answer now. But there was one thing for sure, he was going to fight with everything he had not only for himself, but for the ones he cared most. For his sisters. For Ronnie Anne. He’ll find a way, he always does. The man with a plan.
  3308. But the man with a plan didn’t foresee Ronnie’s immediate intentions.
  3309.  
  3310. -“You know, lame...Lincoln…Bobby is working and my parents aren’t home, so you can stay for a while after leaving the gears…”
  3311. A mischievous smile on her lips and a flustered expression on his face. Lincoln wasn’t stupid and Ronnie had a lot of catching up to do. And it was something he couldn’t refuse, after all, he had to do everything she said. Everything...
  3312. They’ll be fine.
  3313.  
  3314. END
