Description [Verosika invited Lincoln to one of her concerts in the Lust Ring, where she showcased a new song. The song was a big hit and really helped her reach her fans. Lincoln felt like there some "subtle" hints about her past relationship with Blitz in there, but he felt like he shouldn't bring it up. Besides that, the song was amazing, and he got see first-hand how truly talented she really was without there being any bets or fiascos going on.]
(To my readers who want to have an idea of what the song sounds like, please follow this link to the amazing artist Paranoid DJ - PARANOiD DJ & Cycoriot - 'Signals' feat. Archnephilia (Helluva Boss) - YouTube )

[After the concert, Verosika met back with her posse and Lincoln as the white haired boy excitedly ran up to congratulate her.]


Lincoln: That was great Verosika, you were amazing up there!

Verosika: Aw, thanks, Linky. Glad you enjoyed it.

Lincoln: Yeah, it was really good. It's no wonder you're so famous. You were really amazing.

Verosika: Oh, stop. You're making me blush.

Milky: The kids right though. You killed it today V.

Apple: Yeah, the crowd was going crazy.

Coco: Not that we're surprised.

Kiki: Well, now that the concerts over and the boys are taking care of the merch, how about we all take a breather back in our room?

Verosika: Good idea. Lincoln, would you like to join us?

Lincoln: Me? Well, I uh, if I uh-

Apple: Please, Linky. We'd love to keep hanging out with you.

Coco: For sure. It's been a while since we got to spend time with you baby boy.

Kiki: And we've all been dying to see you again.

Milky: I certainly have.

Verosika: Well, Lincoln.

[Lincoln can't help but blush as the girls surround and smile at him. It's really cute and really tempting.]

Lincoln: Well, I suppose I coul-

XXXXXX: Well, well, well. Long time no see, babe.

Verosika: Huh? *Gasp* -


[A tall red Incubus with a muscly figure, black wings, long sharp arrowhead tail, and a golden tooth suddenly appeared before the Verosika, her friends, and Lincoln. This Incubus had eyes similar to Stryker, and gave off a similar intimidating vibe as well.]

XXXXXX: Verosika.

Verosika: . . . Travis.

Milky: Oh, hell no.

Kiki: Ugh, what are you doing here?

Travis: Hey, just thought I'd drop by my old girl's concert, see if she's still got the goods and her singing talent too.

Verosika: Well, concert's over, so you can leave.

Travis: Aw, don't be like that, baby. Don't you wanna catch up? Maybe have a little fun like the good ol' days.

Verosika: There were no good Ol' days with you, Travis, so do us all a favor and piss off.

Travis: Oh really? Guess I must have imagined all those times I heard you screaming when we rocked the sheets.

Verosika: Yeah, you must have.

Travis: Hehe sure V. Maybe when you come around, I can show you a good time again. Who knows, maybe your friends could get in on the action too.

Coco: In your dream's shithead!

Apple: And not even there!

Travis: Pfft, your loss ladies. Hm?

[Travis spots Lincoln behind Verosika with her posse.]

Travis: Who's the shrimp?


[Verosika smiled deviously as she walked over to her girls and stood behind Lincoln and placed her hands on his shoulders. Lincoln stayed still as he observed what was happening.]

Verosika: This is Lincoln. My special VIP guest for my concert tonight.

Kiki: And unlike you, he's a gentleman.

[Kiki twirls a strand of Lincoln's hair as she says this, getting him to blush.

Travis: Seriously Babe, you'd rather hang with this little twerp then with a real demon like me?

Verosika: Any day of the week. You were a mistake and a waste of my time.

Travis: Pfft, oh please. Is that what you tell yourself now. You were having the time of your life with me because you had an excuse to be the bitch you really are.


[Lincoln scowled at Travis upon hearing this as his eyes began to glow red from his magic beginning to stir.]

Travis: Yeah, I think I do sweat cheeks. You act like a total pop-star fun girl who loves a good bang sesh. Please, you're a whore for sex and attention. I didn't put on any airs with you. I gave it to ya straight and showed you my shit and yours, and you loved it. You loved cutting loose and not giving a shit about anyone or anything.

Verosika: You're wrong.

Travis: Yeah right. Don't pretend you forgot how great it all felt, and how much fun we had.

Verosika: I. . . I. . .-

Travis: Aww, what's the matter baby? Remembering the good ol days? Maybe you and I can-


[Lincoln's eyes flashed even brighter as the cards on his holster began emitting a light glow as well in unison with his rising anger.]

Lincoln: Hey pal, leave her alone!

Travis: Aww, look. Little miss priss got herself a bodyguard. Isn't he adorable. You rock'n cradles now, Skank or did this follow you home?

Verosika: My relationship with Lincoln has nothing to do with you. So, mind your own business.

Travis: Right. Sure. I shouldn't be surprised you'd want some pathetic little runt like this. He probably has no idea what you're really like. How sad and pathetic. How happy you are the jump the bones of anybody who helps you forget about that loser who broke your heart way back when. Pff, pathetic.

Kiki: Whoa V, you ok.

Verosika: I, uh, yeah. I'm fine.

Travis: Aww, what's the matter, pop star? Did I strike a nerve?! Hahahaha-Huuh?! W-What the?!!


[The red jerk of an Incubus suddenly found himself bound in a red aura and lifted into the sky. He then looked down to see Lincoln.]

[The white-haired boy's eyes and extended left hand were blazing with red energy. A look of pure fury was on the young boy's face as. His glare intensified and he squeezed his hand into a fist.]

[Travis screamed out in pain as it felt as if his body was being squeezed and crushed by an unseen force.]

[Lincoln extended his index and made a come here motion once, bringing his target towards and placing him floating directly in front of his face, forcing Travis to look directly into Lincoln's now black and red glowing eyes. Within them, Travis could see Lincoln's still forming demon side peering into his soul, ready to devour him if he dared to utter even One, More, Word.]


Lincoln: Leave. NOW!


[Lincoln voice echoed instilling absolute fear into the Incubus. Even the girls were a little afraid but were also more attracted to Lincoln than before seeing him bravely stand up to the demon. Lincoln undid his magic binding dropping him to the ground. Travis scrambled to his feet and ran as fast as his feet could carry him without looking back.]

[With the nuisance taken care of Lincoln eyes returned to normal as looked back at a still upset Verosika, with her friends trying to console her.]



Lincoln: Verosika?


[The succubus popstar didn't respond as she was wiping tears from her eyes while facing away from him. Kiki and Milky looked to Lincoln as if asking for help. The rest of the girls followed along.]

[Lincoln let out a sigh as he circled around in front of them and knelt down in front of Verosika before calling her name again.]



Lincoln: Hey Verosika, are you ok?

Verosika: Yeah. Yeah, I'm ok. This is just one of the perks of being a popstar.

Lincoln: V, who was that guy?

Coco: One of Verosika's exes. Total shitbag.

Apple: They only dated for about a month, but-

Kiki: Yeah, he was a real piece of work, and a real piece of shit as you saw.

Lincoln: Oh man. Verosika-

Verosika: Huff, it's ok, Lincoln. Really. It's just life, right? Sometimes you make giant mistakes. Mistakes like him. I only stayed with him as long as I di because he was a good screw, and he. . . He wasn't an asshole all the time.


[Verosika looked away she rubbed her arm, no doubt thinking about the time she spent and wasted with Travis. Although not all of it was that bad. Lincoln looked on in concern as it looked like she was avoiding eye contact with him.]


Verosika: In the end, it was all an act. That tool just wanted to bang and own a popstar. I thought. . . I thought he was just rough around the edges, but the girls helped me see the truth before it go too bad.

Lincoln: Yeah, it's good to know who your real friends are.

Verosika: Yeah, but it's hard to know who those people are sometimes. Especially, when you're always putting on a front, to try and be who they want you to be and it feels like you're not even you anymore. Once that happens, you feel like you're letting your real fans/friends down.

Lincoln: Yeah, I get that. Sometimes, some things are just too big to handle on your own. That's why there's nothing wrong with asking for a little help, Verosika.

Verosika: Yeah, I guess, but it's not that easy.

Lincoln: Whad'ya mean?

Verosika: I trusted someone to help me once and I got hurt. I don't want to open my heart only to get hurt again. I mean, when most of the world is fake and shit, how do you know who you can really trust? How do you know if that someone really cares?


[Apple, Coco, Milky, and Kiki all looked sad as they heard this. They wanted to help, but they didn't know what to say. In a way, Verosika was right. There were people who were jerks out there that you shouldn't trust, but there also good people out there who will be there for you. Verosika had experienced the pain of being betrayed, but she had real friends now. Even so, it seemed like the pain was still there.]

[How, Lincoln wondered. How could he show her that she could trust him, that he was different, that he Cared.]



____________________________________________________________________________________________


🎶 Lincoln: You with the sad eyes. 🎶


[Verosika's eyes shoot wide as she looks up and over to Lincoln. The girls all do the same with shocked expressions on their faces.]


🎶Lincoln: Don't be discouraged.🎶


Apple: Gasp!

Coco: No way.


🎶Lincoln: Oh, I realize It's hard to take courage In a world full of people You can lose sight of it all The darkness inside you Can make you feel so small.🎶


Kiki: Did you know he had the voice of an angle? (She smiles with tears in her eyes as she holds Milky's hands.)

(Milky shakes her head as she smiles with tears in her eyes as well.)


🎶Lincoln: Show me a smile then Don't be unhappy, can't remember when I last saw you laughing. This world makes you crazy-🎶


[Lincoln moves in front of Verosika and does the crazy swirl next to his head while rolling his eyes. This gets her to smile as she continues to listen to his words.]


🎶Lincoln: And you've taken all you can bear. 🎶


[Lincoln takes Verosika hands into his own and looks her in the eyes with his most genuine smile showing that he meant every word.]


🎶 Lincoln: Just call me up, 'Cause I will always be there, And I see your true colors-🎶

(Lincoln uses his magic to create a pink aura matching Verosika's skin tone around her to emphasize his song. He felt it would be a nice touch.)
[The girls all smile as they see this.]

🎶-Shining through I see your true colors, and that's why I love you. 🎶


[They all gasp as they hear these words.]

[Verosika smiles brightly as tears appear in her eyes as she looks down at the white-haired boy that had stolen her heart.]


🎶 Verosika: So, don't be afraid, to let them show. 🎶


🎶Both/Duet: Your true colors True colors are beautiful. 🎶

(A red aura appears around Lincoln as he floats up and presses his hand against Verosika's as their voices harmonize together, and the two begin to slow dance. Unbeknownst to the two of them, their singing and dancing had drawn in a crowd and a few of them were recording the whole thing.)

🎶 Lincoln: I see your true colors-🎶

🎶 Verosika: True colors,-🎶

🎶 Duet: - Shining through True colors I see your true colors. 🎶

🎶 Both/Duet: That's why I love you So don't be afraid To let them show. 🎶

🎶 Lincoln: Your true colors- 🎶

🎶 Verosika: True colors- 🎶

🎶Both/Duet: Are beautiful. . . 🎶

🎶Lincoln: Like a rainbow~.🎶

🎶 Verosika: Whoa-oh-oh-Oooh, Like a rainbow~.🎶


[The two gaze into each others eyes as they sing the last notes, the music that had been playing in the background from Lincoln's phone beginning to fade out.]

*Music fades out.*

🎶

____________________________________________________________________________________________


Verosika: Thank you, Lincoln.

Lincoln: You're welcome.

Verosika: You really are the best.

Lincoln: Nah, I just did something special for someone special.

Verosika: I don't suppose you Really meant that?

Lincoln: Huh?

Verosika: What you said. Did you mean it or were those just the song lyrics?

Lincoln: Oh, OH, that? Well, I um, *gulp* I. . . I.

*Lincoln blushes brightly as he looks up Verosika, but can't keep looking her in the eyes over how embarrassed he is.*

Lincoln: I. . . I-

Apple: Linky!

*Lincoln suddenly found himself grabbed, hoisted up, surrounded, and being squeezed from all sides by the girls.*

Apple: That was beautiful!

Coco: I had no idea you could sing like that.

KiKi: Just full of talents aren't you little man?

Milky: A real winner this one.

Verosika: Girls, girls, calm down!

[The girls all looked to Verosika as she was gesturing with her hands for them all to relax.]

Verosika: Now that the fiasco is taken care of, how about we get our little VIP home?


[The girls all smiled to each other and then to Lincoln as they were looking forward to the long and comfy ride back. The ride back to the IMP building was about an hour, which for Lincoln was a whole ride back of the girls being snuggled up close with him. Though he wasn't complaining one bit.]

[As they arrived the girls walked him upstairs. Lincoln put his merchandise in his room and came back out to give the girls a proper farewell and thank them for them for inviting him out.]


Lincoln: Thanks again for inviting me to your concert Verosika. It was really amazing.

Verosika: Anytime Linky.

Kiki: And she does mean any time cute stuff.

Coco: Yeah, we definitely have to hang out more often.

Apple: More time with Lincoln sounds great to me.

Milky: Looks we're all in agreement on that.

Lincoln: Hehe, ok looking forward to it.


[The girls turned to leave, but before they did, Verosika stopped and turned back to Lincoln who looked like he was about to get back to work. A warm smile spread across her face as she remembered how he sung for her and how their voices harmonized together. Verosika walked back over and knelt down to Lincoln's level.]

[The girls all noticed this and turned around to watch her.]


Verosika: Oh, by the way Lincoln.

Lincoln: Huh?

[Before Lincoln even had a chance to react, Verosika grabbed his chin and brought his lips to her own for a kiss. Lincoln was in such a shock that he didn't move muscle, except for his eyes that shot as wide as possible as Verosika kissed him for a solid minute.]

[The succubus popstar pulled away giving the white-haired boy a deep look in his eyes wearing warm smile as she stood back up. She then made her usual grin as she giggled at his shocked face.]

Verosika: Hmhmhm, hopefully you can give me your answer next time. Till then, bye Linky.

[Lincoln was stunned and dumbfounded as he watched the swaying hips of Verosika walk through the door leading to the stairwell.]

KiKi: Oh, Linky.~

[Lincoln turned to see the excited faces of the other girls as they were eagerly eyeing him. He knew exactly what was coming and did his best to mentally prepare himself for it. It didn't help.]

Kiki: Don't forget about us.

[Lincoln found himself sharing a kiss with Kiki, Apple, Milky, and Coco. After which they all stepped through the portal after they're lead girl.]

Apple: Bye Linky!

KiKi: (blows a kiss to Lincoln) Till next time cutey!

Coco: See ya soon baby boy! (Shoots him a wink)

Milky: Later!

[As Verosika Mayday and her posse disappeared beyond the portal, Lincoln Loud found his face dropping into a dopey love-struck grin before falling flat on his back onto the office floor.]

[The next day Lincoln found himself being bombarded by everyone at IMP about his little duet with Verosika. To be fair it was mostly Loona asking questions about singing with Verosika in front of a crowd, and Millie asking dozens of question about if Verosika or any of her posse got up to any "funny business" with him.]
