(A/N): Welp, here we are. Second to last prompt of the OTP challenge I'm doing... this year, for Lolana, anyway. I might do another for a different pairing next year and keep up the tradition, who knows? This is also the last prompt of this challenge that's SFW, and thus also the last one where they're canon aged. Day 30 is, again, "doing something hot" so that's gonna be posted separately with a different rating, and of course set in the future part of the timeline. Hope you like this one, and I will be posting the last prompt probably early in November just to be an ass to those participating in No Nut November. Which is stupid but I digress. Also, I'd like to thank Captain Dodge for helping me out with brainstorming the general plot, Dodgey boy is really great with stuff like that. And without further ado, let's get into the wholesome!

One breeze autumn day, things were quite normal at the Loud house. Well, as normal as they could be, that is. Luan was making No Nut November jokes, Lucy was already writing out plans for the next Halloween in a book under a tree, and Mr. Grouse was ranting about the leaves constantly falling in his yard despite his policy of "my yard, my property."

However, the autumn spirit wasn't with everyone. Lana Loud opened the door to her room, where she saw Lola slumped over at her tea party table. There was stuff set up for a tea party, but the princess was making no move to actually host it.

"Oh, hey Lans." She greeted without turning to face her.

"Hey Lols." Lana walked over to where she was, and a wave of sorrow and pity washed over her. "Hey… what's wrong?" She asked with concern, taking a seat next to her after moving the stuffed animal that was previously on it.

"Nothing." Lola mumbled.

"You sure? You seem kinda… out of it."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It's just, you don't seem to be that happy."

"What tipped you off on that?" Lola sighed.

Lana pinched the bridge of her nose as a thought came to her mind. She wanted to banish it, but she couldn't. Her twin sister was in need, and she was gonna try whatever she could to cheer her up. "How about we play dress-up? You like dress-up, don't you?" She asked reluctantly.

"Wh… what?" Lola sat up and gave Lana a bewildered look. "But you hate dress-up!"

"Well I- but, if it'll make you happy, I'll do it."

Lola gave her a weak smile while remaining utterly incredulous.

Lana was currently clad in an overly poofy and stuffy deep pink dress. It made her wobble around a little bit whenever she tried to move. She wasn't enjoying the experience, and that fact was obvious to Lola and would be to anyone else if they saw her. She tried her best not to complain and bared with it, regardless of how hard it was to breathe in it.

"Uhh… are you doing okay?" Lola asked as she tightened the dress even more, making Lana whimper.

"Kinda hard to breathe, but I'm okay…" The tomboy replied with a strained voice and a fake smile.

Lola undid the tightening part of the dress to make it easier for Lana to speak. "Why are you doing this, anyway?"

"Because I wanted to cheer you up. Simple as that."

"So you decided to do something you hate with every bone in your body, just for that?"

"Well yeah, you're my twin and even if you weren't, I wouldn't wanna see you sad. WHat happened anyway?"

Lola let go of the dress tightener and walked over to her bed, sitting on it criss-cross style. "Get back in your normal clothes, then we'll talk."

Lana moved to the other side of the room near her own bed and did just that, then joined Lola next to her. "What's going on?"

"Not much, just school stuff."

"What do you mean by that?"

"You know how sometimes we read out loud in class and there's usually a lot of volunteers? I never raise my hand for a reason…"

"Why?"

"Do you remember that reading contest from the library, where the prize was an entire free night at Spunk E. Pigeon's?"

"Yeah, and we missed it because you didn't want to read because it was hard or something?"

"Yeah yeah, I know…" Lola grumbled and hung her head low.

"Hey, no need to feel bad. You're getting better at it, aren't you?" Lana tried to console her.

"Yeah, but the thing is… I didn't want to tell you or anyone else because any time I end up getting called on to read something out loud, I either read too slowly, or I mess the words up and that makes me read too slowly, and then some of the other kids make fun of me…"

Lana hopped off the bed, her eyes narrowed, and her mouth twisted into a scowl. "They what?! And how haven't I seen that? We're in the same class."

"It always happens when you're not around."

"Why, are they scared of me or something? If anything, I'd think they'd be scared of you."

"Apparently not, since they like to pick on me because reading isn't as easy for me as it is for them. I can still read, it's just not so easy!"

"Hmm… I think I have an idea. How about we take a trip somewhere fun for now, and then tomorrow I'll go kick their butts? All you gotta do is lead me to them."

"I… I'd like that. You'd really do that?"

"'Course I would! I've got your back, and I know you've got mine."

"So where would we go?"

"Just follow me, I think you'll like it."

Vanzilla screeched to a halt, double-parked in front of a car in front of the restaurant. Lana was back in her normal attire.

"Alright, don't take too long and don't get into any trouble, or I'll turn you both into human pretzels and tie you together. Understand?" Lori asked, turning around.

"Yes ma'am!" Lola replied and handed her a wad of cash.

"Yes sir- I mean ma'am!" Lana said while doing a soldier salute.

Lori paid the flub no mind and watched them exit the van and go into the building. They found an empty booth and took their seats. Seven different animatronics were singing on the stage in front of them and the smell of cheesy pizza wafted in the air.

"Wow, this place is even better than I thought it'd be!" Lola mused as she looked around. "After I blew that contest I never thought I'd get to come here."

"Yeah, it's not the cheapest place but I think pooling our allowances for some grub 'n stuff here is worth it."

"I still can't believe you'd do something like this just because I was feeling down." Lola replied, though with a smile and an appreciative tone. She picked up one of the menus and looked through the items being offered.

Just then, a group of different kids, including Lindsey and Lacey, came walking by. They caught sight of the twins, particularly Lola, and smirked.

"Hey, look who it is! Having trouble with that menu, Lola?" Lindsey swiped it out of her hands and shoved it back into her face. "How about you sound it out? Here, I'll help you!" And in a very slow, buffoonish and consensendingly mocking voice, she said, "Thhhhiiiisss heeeeere iiiiis… peeeeeeperoooooooniiiii… piiiiiizzzzzaaaa…"

"Leave her alone." Lana growled, standing up from her seat and moving towards Lindsey.

Lindsey dropped the menu onto the floor and laughed in Lana's face. "Hah, and what are you gonna do?"

"Uhh, Lindsey, you do know who she is, right?" One of the other kids piped up.

"Of course I do, she's that dog of a twin of that dummyhead over there." Lindsey snarked and pointed at Lola who shot her a glare.

"Yeah, what's she gonna do, throw mud at us?" Lacey added in, then turned to the irked tomboy. "Guess even after a classy dog show you're still a dirty mutt like that other dog of yours. Heard the other kids don't like you, which is no big surprise. Not surprised that your sister's just as dumb as you, either."

"Oh, you again. Look, I don't care what any of you say about me, but nobody picks on my dog or my sister!" Lana whipped around, practically shooting daggers with her eyes at her, and baring her teeth. Lacey may have been bigger, taller, and a year older than Lana, but she was not the least bit intimidated.

Lacey chuckled snootily and gave her a daring smirk while the other kids sans Lindsey looked on nervously. She swiped the tiara right off of Lola's head and put it on her own, dodging the pageant princess's attempts to grab it back, each attempt getting more and more violent. And that's where she screwed up.

Right then, Lana started seeing red and flew into a rage with an animalistic roar. She lunged at the bully and with no hesitation whatsoever, snatched the tiara off her head, gave her the mother of all atomic wedgies and let go with a loud *snap!* Everyone froze in place for a few moments, aside from Lindsey who stepped back before running off.

"I said… Leave. Her. Alone." She snarled deeply, her face flushed with anger and her eyes burning with fury. She shook a bit, clearly itching for a fight but trying to hold herself back. Lori did tell her and Lola not to get into trouble, after all.

The rest of them started to slowly step back as well and Lacey fixed the wedgie. She glared at Lana and moved a step forward as though she hadn't had enough. That was quickly shut down and that anger turned into fear once Lana whipped around and shot back her own glare.

"UNDERSTAND?!"

Not another word was uttered from neither Lacey nor the rest of the group. They weren't about to risk being on the receiving end of one of those wedgies, or anything worse that they knew Lana would be able to cook up. Something really grody, probably. And so they made their getaway before she could go after them.

"Whoa…" Was all Lola could say as she picked the menu back up off the floor.

Lana panted and took her seat, trying to calm herself down. She handed Lola the tiara back, who put it back in its proper place. "Sorry about that."

"Wh- sorry for what? I wanted to say thank you!"

"No prob. I've got your back. Hopefully that taught them to keep their distance. But if anything else happens with them or anyone else, you know who to call." Lana pridefully said. "Anyway, where were we?"

"Getting something to eat, I guess?" Lola focused on the menu and looked for something that would satisfy the both of them. She found something, and pointed to the item on the menu. However, she hesitated on reading it out loud.

"Hey, I know those jerks were a bunch of booger rags to you, but don't pay attention to them. Just sound it out, you got this."

"Hmm, okay…" Lola squinted at the colorful text next to the picture of said food item. "La… lar… large pepe… roni…"

Lana sat there patiently as she waited for her to finish. "No need to rush."

"Pepe… roni… oh!" Lola suddenly had a eureka moment. "Large pepperoni pizza!" She said proudly.

"See, I knew you could do it! And yeah, that sounds good. Anything to drink?"

"Hmmm…" Lola mused as she looked through the menu again.

From then on, they had a pretty good time at Spunk E. Pigeon's Pizza Palooza Paradise with all the pizza, arcade games and music they could ever want.
