"You didn't say anything?!" Lori shouted with indignation towards her own mother who was lounging on her master bed reading through old high school classmate's social media posts.
"Like I said, Lori, your father said he had it covered." Her mother calmly stated. It seems that some of her husband's laid back attitude had rubbed off on her. That or she did just need to relax some.
"She's like 20!" Lori shouted.
"No she's not, Lori." Her mother told her with a hint of annoyance lowering her reading device. "At most she is probably Leni's age."
"Moooommm." Lori groaned.
"Don't mom me, dear." Her mother finally snapped at her. "Leave it alone, Lori, Quinlan is having dinner with us tonight so just leave it for now. We can discuss this tomorrow. Who knows you might really like her."
Lori stomped out of her mother's room throwing her head back to make an audible 'ugh' sound. Waiting outside the room was a handful of her sisters: Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, and Lola.
"So what she say, dude?" Luna now had time to be concerned for her little brother after she finally lost eyes on the utter babe of a girlfriend he revealed to them.
"It doesn't look good girls." Lori looked around to her family for some comfort. "Dad and Mom seem okay with it. Literally waiting to see how things turn out."
"Whoa really?!" Lynn announced her amazement. The rest of the group also looked unsure. I mean how would you feel to find your brother was dating a girl with wicked hot looks and years beyond him. It seemed like a gold digger but for some reason she was aiming for a young boy...that in itself was of greater worry.
"Do you think she's like using Lincy?" Leni finally said what they were all thinking. There was a silence between them all. Maybe, but they needed proof.
"Yes I think she is…" Lori had gone into protective older sister mode. She would deal with the whole 'not dating Ronnie Anne situation later'. Her brother needed her help from this big butt harlot!
"Big butt harlot?" Lola said. Lori's eyes opened wide as she didn't know she had said it aloud.
"Don't repeat that, Lola…" She motioned for everyone present to huddle in. "Look Lincoln's 'Thicc QT' is staying for dinner, we need to get as much information out of her and him as we can so it's game plan time."
"Yeah! Let's cut her down a peg! Hahaha! Get it?" Luan looked around to the group. They all had confused looks on their faces. "Because her last name is Timber."
Some ohs and ehs were passed around in the huddle.
"Oh I thought you meant because her thighs are the size of logs!" Luna stated. The group stared at Luna a bit. "What? Lincoln brought home a babe, so sue me."
"Literally, whatever! Let's just come up with a plan." Lori tightened the group together and begun whispering to everyone.
Lincoln ran back into his room where he had left QT to her own devices while he convinced a few of his sisters to his side. Lucy's thing for forbidden love was enough for to be indifferent to the whole situation. Lana wasn't on board until he mentioned that QT's car needed an oil change. That alone wouldn't have done it until she peaked out of the window to see that it was an Impala, a family hand me down, beaten up but still a wonder to behold. Lisa… already made up her mind to not interfere beyond stating their age gap while concerning would not be once they grew up. She doubted their romance would last that long but as long something bad didn't happen she would stay out of it.
"Good news." Lincoln ecstatically said while entering his room. "I got three of my sisters on board. I also got someone to do your oil change for you." He stopped dead in his tracks and the finger he was raising drooped some. QT was going through his clothes and she was holding up his Ace Savvy cosplay.
"Ahh!" Lincoln quickly ran and snatched it out of her hands. QT looked at him acquisitively.
"Why are you going through my clothes?!" His breathing was ragged due to the embarrassment he was being put through. She gave him a sly smile. Getting on all fours she began to crawl towards him with bedroom eyes.
"I was just looking for things for you to wear on our date tomorrow." His eyes went wide, he had nearly forgotten about their date tomorrow. "But perhaps it doesn't matter as I'll be undressing you with my eyes the entire time~"
"QT!" His blush had swarmed across his freckles. She giggled uncontrollably.
"Sorry, honey you're just so much fun to tease." She pulled him to her criss crossing her legs to put him in her lap. She pressed him against her chest and he flinched some. QT always liked how much she could tease him. Still this wasn't the most flustered he could get. One thing she loved about Lincoln was that the best way to tease him was to go for a kiss.
They hadn't done it a lot but they had a few pecks on the cheeks and lips some. Not a full blown make out session though. QT didn't think he could handle it yet. All her previous boyfriends were much more interested in her body first and it was heavily evident in the way they approached her. But in Lincoln's case she was the one who approached him. God he was nervous when she did but they were both having bad days so why not share it together. That little whim she had on that day had sparked into a fire of passion.
Lincoln was slightly miffed. Being the smaller one in such a relationship can be really embarrassing especially if you are a boy. He really hoped it would change in the future, but yeah, it did kind of stink for the most part. The one nice thing about it he could hear the calming sound of her heart beat. He worried that he had a big sister complex when they had gone out the first couple times but as time went on he realized she was nothing like his sisters. He didn't know how to describe it but she just made him feel different, appreciated, and he loved going out of his way to see her smile.
"Did we ever plan on where we were going to go tomorrow?" Lincoln finally asked.
"I don't even know anymore… a movie? Lunch? Swimming Pool?" She could not see his face from her position but his ears had turned red. "Oh ho ho, did you want to see me in a bikini?"
"No! I mean, maybe!" He backtracked pulling his knees up to his chest and continued in his bashfulness. "I just don't think we could… my family is kind of banned from every swimming pool. We have our own blow up one but if we did that everyone would want to join us."
"And what's wrong with that?" She asked him.
"I like when we get to talk like this…" She grinned to herself goofily and pushed him a bit.
"You like keeping me to yourself, is what you mean." He was about to stutter a response but she didn't let him. "I guess we could just stay in your room all day and chat."
"Could we!" Lincoln turned her his eyes sparkled with infatuation. Is that all he really wanted? She began laughing. It was too much for her, he was just so precious. It took her a good minute to calm down. She had not noticed she had pulled him on top of her and laid his head on her bosom. His ear was pressed up to her chest and he seemed content.
"I think we might want to use our free day more wisely than that. We do it on the phone everyday you know."
"But it just feels nicer when you're here with me…" Lincoln spoke letting it hang in the air.
"Yeah...it kind of does…" She began thinking of a compromise but her little man with a plan thought of one she wasn't expecting.
"There's a fusion restaurant not too far from here, it's called... I can't remember off the top of my head but it seems pretty popular." She pondered it. "We can go for lunch then come back here. Now that my family has met you, it shouldn't be as much of a big deal."
"Yeah, that is a decent plan but do you really want to come back here and just talk? You don't think that would be too boring?" She got the feeling he wouldn't but there was something else on his mind. He was fidgeting some, on edge, and he kept glancing up at her. He opened his mouth about to say something but then stopped. "Go on, Lincoln, I know you have something else planned."
"My sister, Luna, has an old Karaoke machine in the attic…" Her eyes opened wide. "I could bring it down and we could set it up in here."
"Lincoln, you know I'm not a good singer…" She sat up and pushed herself up against his pillow. Her face was filled with worry.
"What I know is that you love to sing…" he countered.
"..."
"It's hard to tell but this room is soundproof." QT looked around in disbelief, these thin walls? "My sisters did it for me as a gift a long time ago. With how chaotic it gets around here it's nice to have a quiet place to relax. You can let yourself go here, I don't mind...I mean...what I mean is...I want you to."
"..."
"..."
"Lincoln I think that's a wonderful plan." He grinned at her.
"GREAT! Uh-uh, I have some smooch stuff we can sing but we have a batch of random songs you can sing." He got up and reached underneath his bed pulling out a stack of disks. Lincoln had obviously been thinking about this for awhile. QT grinned at him and began looking at them. Lincoln would point out songs he knew, songs his sister Luna loved, songs he wouldn't mind singing in duet, and songs that he would love to see her perform. This boy was special to her...and she was special to him.
Lincoln had been rambling for awhile but after so long he noticed that QT was only responding with minor affirmatives of 'mhmm's and 'oh's. He grew slightly concerned and decided to look at her. What he didn't expect was she was just staring at him. For how long, he simply did not know… she began leaning in...his heart began beating rapidly...he also began leaning in…
The kiss lasted only a few seconds but as they broke he could see hearts in her eyes and she could see them in his. Their minds were a bit hazy and they were unsure if they should throw caution to the wind. Sadly that question was answered by the door opening from Lucy Loud.
The goth stared at them for awhile noticing a trail of saliva that hung like a bridge connecting the two lovebirds. She spoke up.
"Dinner's ready Lincoln...Quinlan…" She slowly shut the door.
"Uhh...we better get ready...hehe…" Lincoln tried to ease the situation.
QT had reverted to not speaking and simply nodded with an embarrassed blush coming to her face. Hopefully the family had calmed down some.
