(A/N- I know that Sam and Tabby probably aren't sisters in the show, but for the sake of this story, they are. I do have other stories planned that involve Sam and/or Tabby, but they won't be sisters in them- for now, that will only apply to this piece. Now that that is out of the way, enjoy!)

It was a typical day in the Loud House. Lori was chatting away with her boyfriend Bobby on the phone while Leni was busy looking for her sunglasses, which were on her head. Luan was working on her ventriloquism act with Mr Coconuts, with Lily as her audience. Lynn was doing keepy-ups whilst Lucy sat in her coffin bed, writing poetry. Lincoln was sat on the couch, watching a re-run of ARRGH!. Lola was working on her latest pageant routine on the landing, whilst her twin sister Lana was outside, playing in the mud with their dog Charles. Lisa was doing some theoretical physics work. Yep, everyone was doing as they usually were.

Everyone, that is, except Luna. Rather than playing her music, the rocker was noticeably quiet as she walked down the stairs, deep in thought. When she reached the living room, Lincoln looked over at her and smiled. "Hey, Luna!" He called out, interrupting her thoughts. "You wanna watch TV with me?"

"Huh?" She said, before realising what he had asked her. "Oh! Not right now, bro. I need to go talk with mom and dad real quick."

"Oh. Okay." He watched as she walked off in the direction of their parents' room, before looking back at the viewer. "I know what you're thinking. 'Lincoln, what's so unusual about that?' Well, when you grow up with ten sisters, you notice when things are off or different with them. In this case, Luna was completely silent until I asked her if she wanted to watch some TV. It's obviously something important if she's interrupting her music practice to talk to them. Though, I wouldn't worry- she didn't look upset when she was walking through. She probably needs to ask them for a favour or something."

"Hey, mom? Dad?" Luna asked, slightly nervous as she entered their room. "I need to ask you guys a pretty big favour."

"Oh?" Rita asked, both her and her husband standing up from the bed. "What is it, dear?"

"Well… you know my friend, Sam?" Both adult Louds nodded, Luna scratching behind her head before she continued. "Well I kinda told her and her sister that they could stay here tonight."

Lynn Sr. frowned, putting his hands on his hips. "I thought we told you that you couldn't have any more sleepovers after the last one."

"I know, but it's not like that-"

"Not to mention you didn't tell us in advance," he continued, cutting her off. "You need to give us time to prepare if you're going to do that!"

"I know I do, but this isn't a sleepover, as such. I mean it is, but it isn't."

Rita raised an eyebrow. "If it's not a sleepover, then why are they spending the night here?"

"Well, she told me at school that her family had to evacuate their house after breakfast due to a gas leak, and that it isn't safe for them to stay there tonight, plus their grandparents are out of town, so they can't stay there either. She looked really distraught when I saw her, and I couldn't help but say she could stay here. She and her sister went to collect some stuff before they come here, so they'll be about half an hour." She looked up at her parents pleadingly, cupping her hands together. "It would really mean a lot if I could do this for them! Please?"

As she threw in the puppy dog eyes for extra effect, her parents relented. "Well… if they need a place to stay, I guess it's okay," Lynn Sr. spoke first. "Where will they sleep, though?"

"I said that Tabby could take my bunk bed, and I'll take the floor, since I still have my sleeping bag from the last camping trip, plus Sam's parents got her a sleeping bag, so we can share my room. Luan said she was okay with it."

"Well, if Luan doesn't mind sharing the room, then alright. They can stay here for the night."

Squealing with joy, Luna through her arms around them, squeezing them tightly. "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!" She practically screamed, before letting them go. "I'll let you guys know when they get here!"

With that, she ran out of the room to make sure her room was ready. Rita and Lynn Sr. looked at each other. "Well, I better go make sure there's enough food for two more people," he told his wife.

"I'll go get some more chairs out of the basement," she replied, before they went to do what they just said.

After her parents agreed and she checked that her room was ready, Luna decided to watch TV with Lincoln while she waited for her friends to arrive. "I can see why you like this so much, bro!" She said, as the show's credits appeared on the screen. "A bit corny, but still entertaining!"

"I know, right?" He replied, smiling. He then handed her the remote. "Why don't you put on something you want? I'm gonna go get a soda."

"Sure thing, bro!" As Lincoln got up from the couch and walked towards the kitchen, Luna started flicking through the channels until she settled on a music channel, showing a rock concert. She smirked as she stuck her feet up and started watching, until she heard a knock at the door. Realising who it probably was, she eagerly leapt to her feet. "I GOT IT!" She screamed, running to the door. Upon opening it, she saw girl her age with blonde hair that had a blue streak in it, wearing a white shirt with the RAF logo under a light blue leather jacket, burgundy ripped jeans and dark purple boots, with a white studded belt and two piercings on either ear. She was carrying a black bag on her arm, with different band logos on it. "Sam!" Luna cheered, pulling her into a hug.

"Oh, Luna!" Sam cheered back, returning the hug. "Thank you so, so much for this! You don't know how much this means to us!"

"I couldn't let you have nowhere to stay, could I? Now, come on in!" She let go of the hug so Sam could step inside. Turning back, Luna saw another girl with black hair that had a pink streak, a few years younger than her. She was wearing a black and white striped t-shirt under a dark purple jacket, a pink mini skirt and white platform boots. She had a bag similar to Sam's, only in red. "What up, Tabby?"

Tabby smiled as Luna ruffled her hair a bit. "Alright, Luna!" She replied, her accent distinctly British. "Hey, cheers for giving us a place to stay, love! You rock!"

"Hey, you're friends of mine! It's the least I could do!"

"Ooh! Are you watching a Five Doors Over concert?" They heard Sam say as the blonde looked at the TV. "I LOVE these guys!" Tabby and Luna ran over to join her, plonking down on the sofa. They started banging their heads in time with the music. "Oh, this is one of my favourites!"

"Me too, sis!" Tabby told her big sister, while Luna simply threw up the devil horns.

While his sisters rocked out to the music, Lincoln returned to the room with a soda in his hand. "Hey, Luna, I'm-" He stopped when he saw Sam, not noticing Tabby right away. "Oh! Hey!"

The blonde girl looked back at the white haired boy. "What's up?" She greeted him. "You must be Lincoln! Luna was right, your white hair really does make you look like one of the cutest boys ever!" He blushed madly at the suggestion, much to her amusement. "I'm Sam."

"Oh, YOU'RE Sam!" He gave a little smirk. "You know, Luna talks about you all the time!"

"Oh, really?" She looked at Luna, whose face was turning red. "What kind of things do you say about me?"

"Oh, uh, you know… just how great you are," Luna sheepishly answered.

"Aww, babe…" She patted her on the cheek. "You're too cute."

Lincoln smiled at the sight. "Well, it's nice to meet you, Sam. What brings you here?"

"Me and my sister are crashing here for the night."

Lincoln was about to ask who her sister was, but his eyes went wide when he saw Tabby sat next to Sam, some of the colour draining from his cheeks. The black haired girl smiled at him. "Heya, Lincoln!" She called.

"Oh! Er, hey, Tabby!" He greeted back, smiling a bit nervously. "It's… been a while!"

"Yeah, I guess it has! How've you been?"

"Oh, y'know, good, good! What about you?"

"Pretty good, mate! Wanna join us?"

"Oh, er, that's okay. I, uh… have… homework! Yeah, I, uh, need to get some homework done! So, I'll, uh, see you later!"

"Sure-" he dashed upstairs before she could finish, leaving her confused. "Thing?"

"Hey, Luna, I know I don't really know Lincoln… but was it just me or did your brother seem… off?" Sam asked.

"Now that you mention it, yeah," she answered, tilting her head. "But why?"

Sam looked back at Tabby. "I didn't know you and Lincoln knew each other."

"Yeah, but I haven't seen him since the-" Upon realising what came next in that sentence, her eyes shot wide, stunned. "Oh."

Luna, also realising what she meant, frowned. "Dude, of course! The Sadie Hawkins Dance!"

"But, I thought you hung out with that other boy, what was his name?"

"Liam," Tabby answered, almost spitting the answer out. "I did, but I didn't originally hang out with him. Luna set me up with Lincoln, but as it turns out, he was going with three other girls too."

Sam, surprised at this, looked at Luna, who sighed. "Originally, my sisters and I thought Lincoln didn't get asked to the dance by his friend Ronnie Anne, so four of us each got Lincoln a date, and we didn't know until we told him. However, he told us that he wasn't asked because he avoided her so he could go the arcade, but it also turns out that she wanted to go to the arcade too. We didn't know that at the time, and neither did he, so we made him go with Tabby and the other girls we set him up with, because we were mad at him for lying to us."

"Wait a minute. That's why he was with those other girls?" Luna nodded. "Oh, man. I mean, I did get the feeling he didn't really want to be there, but I thought it was because he didn't like me that much. Or the other girls, for that matter."

"I think it was the dance he didn't like rather than you or the other girls."

"Wow!" Sam gasped. "I can't believe Lincoln would do something like that!"

"It's mostly our faults," Luna told her, "we kind of forced Lincoln into it, and we didn't tell anyone about our plans to set him up before we did it." She looked over at Tabby. "Sorry, dude."

Tabby simply shrugged. "Eh, I'm over it. He said he was happy we were having fun with his friends, and I've gotten over it. Besides, Lincoln was pretty fun to hang with- mate's got a wicked air piano!" She then frowned. "But, I don't want him to feel awkward because of that! That happened months ago, and we might not've hung out since, but he's still pretty cool."

Sam looked at Luna, both older girls having a mischievous expression on their faces, before they turn to look at Tabby. "Y'know, Tabby, you sound really concerned about my little bro," Luna spoke first.

"Yeah," Sam added, "almost sorry for him. Now, why would that be?"

Tabby raised her eyebrow at them. "What are you talking about? I just feel bad that he feels bad about what happened."

Luna's smirk. "Well, it sounds to me that you care a little bit more than that!"

As Sam nodded, Tabby looked back and forth between them, uncomfortable under their gaze. "Uhh… whatever you say, mates. Can we just watch the concert?" Luna and Sam rolled their eyes, before nodding. As they watched the concert, Tabby couldn't help but ponder, 'what did they mean by all that?'

"Clyde?" Lincoln spoke into his walkie talkie, sat on his bed. "It's Lincoln. Do you copy?"

"I read you loud and clear, Lincoln," he heard Clyde say on the other end of the line. "What's up?"

"Do you remember Tabby from the Sadie Hawkins Dance?"

"Yeah?"

"Well, she's staying at my house tonight!"

"Really? How did that happen?"

"It turns out she's the sister of Luna's friend Sam!"

"Forgive me if I missed something, but what's the problem?"

"The problem is, that the last time I saw her was the dance, and if you'll remember, I wasn't exactly the greatest date that night!"

"Ohhh, right... Well, maybe this is a chance for you to make up! I'm sure she'd be happy to forgive you."

Lincoln sighed, looking downcast. "Maybe… but I just can't help but feel bad about what happened. I wasn't honest with her, and I never got the chance to tell her truth. Plus, she told me she was having more fun with Liam than me." Clyde was silent for a moment. "Clyde?"

"… Lincoln, are you jealous of Liam?"
