what's up, here is a small updated nothing to big. I decided to keep it small because a lot of stuff been going on and if you live in Houston then you know about the storming and how the weather is being stupid. just ahead up I'm sorry if this chapter seem rush, I had tried to take it slow like normal but eh, anyway that is enough. hope ya enjoy.

The days had pass slowly passed by as there wasn't much to do because tabby had started to go home after school, not going to the mall with Luna and Sam, he tried to talk to her because he knew something was wrong but she would just smile and told him everything was ok, making him slightly upset because he knew she was lying but at the same time, he didn't want to force her to do anything but enough is enough.

Lincoln and tabby was in the band room together while Lincoln was playing the guitar but tabby was just looking at the keys on the piano, with a distant look on her face, Lincoln looked at her and immediately stopped playing the guitar, placing it down next to his feet.

"Tabby" Lincoln called out making her come to her senses and look at him.

"Oh yeah mate, what's up" tabby said making Lincoln look at her, studying her face a bit but sighed.

"Tell me what wrong" Lincoln asked her as she had just gave him a small smile, shaking her head.

"Nothing wrong" tabby said with a smile but Lincoln had refused to listen to her.

"Stop it, I know you are lying tabby" Lincoln demanded making her look at him "you haven't been yourself for almost a week now. you don't go to the mall, you hardly even play anything like you used, heck you barely talk to me anymore" Lincoln told her making her look down sadly and sigh.

"Heh it that noticable. I'm sorry mate... I just... I just upset" tabby told him "I was looking at comments of my performance on YouTube, there was some... Not so supportive comments..." She said quietly, Lincoln had frowned and went over to her, sitting next to her.

"Some called me a freak... Annoying... There was a few who said that I might be a lesbian for crying out loud" tabby said bitterly, rubbing her eyes.

Lincoln frowned deeper as he tried to think of what to say, so he said the first thing that came to mind "don't listen to them tabby, you are perfect the way you are" he said as he thought of something else "besides I sure anyone would be grateful to date you, male or female" he finished, tabby had looked at him for a moment while Lincoln had wanted to jump into a hole and die because what he said was so stupid and corny.

Tabby smiled and started to laugh loudly while Lincoln had turned a slight red from embarrassment, tabby had slowly stopped laughing and hugged Lincoln "thank you mate, I needed to hear that" she said happily while Lincoln had smiled and hugged her but was still embarrassed.

"I'm glad I was able to help" Lincoln said as they had pulled apart "come to the mall with me today, the other's will be glad to see you" he said making her sigh quietly and nod.

"Alright Lincoln, I will" tabby said making Lincoln smile and nodded "I'll meet ya after school, so go ahead and tell Luna that I'm coming" she told him making him pull out his phone and sent a text to Luna.

"Done and done" Lincoln told her happily before the bell had went off "heh see you after school" Lincoln smiled.

"Heh it kinda hard to believe a cute guy like yourself had nearly sent 3 guys to the hospital" tabby laughed quietly while Lincoln eyes widened, his face had slowly turning red while tabby had stopped laughing, realizing what she said.

Tabby had turned red as she had waved her hands in front of her, trying to say something but only random words came out before she had ran out of the classroom, while Lincoln was stuck before a large goofy smile had came across his face as he felt like he was on cloud nine.

The rest of the school was a blur for Lincoln and before he had knew it, it was time to go home but which for him that had meant that him and tabby could finally go to the mall together, which made him smile none the less.

Lincoln had found tabby and walked up to her, and she had saw him "hey mate" tabby said making Lincoln wave as he gotten next to her.

"Sam and Luna is coming, they are usually here by now" Lincoln told her making her nod as they had stood around, waiting.

"Are you tabby!?" A girl said as her and 3 other girl's had ran up to her, catching Lincoln and tabby by surprise.

"Y-yeah, what can I do for ya" tabby asked a bit nervous.

"We love your performance! Can we get a picture with you, please~" one of the girl's had asked, tabby had rub the back of her neck with a smile.

"S-sure mate, I wouldn't mind" tabby smile while the 4 girls had hugged tabby.

"Thank you!" The girls cheer as they had pulled back and pulled out their phone's, looking at Lincoln.

"Would you mind?" One of the girl's asked as they had handle Lincoln their phone.

"Not at all" Lincoln said as he took one of the phone's to take the picture "get ready, rock'n'roll on 3" he told them, they had all got close to tabby, smiling.

"1...2...3" Lincoln told them.

"Rock'n'roll" they all said before Lincoln took the picture.

"Got it" Lincoln said as he handed the phone back to the girl, who had looked at it, beaming with joy as they was catching the attention of others.

"Thank you so much and thank you to tabby" the girl said as she had showed the picture with her friends, who had told her to send it to them.

"Heh no problem" tabby said as she kept felt really nervous but at the same time, really happy.

"Tabby, I wanted to tell you that your song 'play it loud' was some moving, and seeing you always smiling, filled with joy had filled me up with so much hope" the girl's said as she had hugged tabby tightly "thank you so much" she said as she pulled back, looking at a shocked tabby, soon other people had came up to tell tabby how awesome her performance was, telling her goodluck, and hope she would win.

One of the girls had gotten tabby attention again "Yeah, you are our hero tabby, we hope you win the talent show" the girl said as tabby had looked at them before she lower her head, letting her hair shadow her face a bit.

"Tabby?" The girls asked worried.

Tabby had looked up at the group of people smiling brightly "thank you for your love and support everyone, so you better believe as long as rock'n'roll is kicking then the fire in me will never go out because one day, I will shine brighter then the sun itself!" Tabby said loudly with pride while the girl's had look at her in awe, and a few people had cheered for her.

"And I'll be there every step of the way" Lincoln had mumbled to himself as he had smile, watching her.
