Welcome, little readers, to Kuro's latest creation! Firstly, there's a link in this chapter, and just in case it doesn't work, there will be a backup on my profile, as usual. NOW! This will be Cartoon version, pairing… Alvin x Brittany! Chapter one, READ ON!
"Do you think he forgot? He didn't forget, did he?"
"Relax Brittany. I'm sure Alvin wouldn't dare to forget something so important as this."
Sixteen year old Brittany Miller, dressed in just her signature hot pink silk robe, was leaning against the windowsill, staring out at the starry night sky. Her light blue eyes were slowly darting from star to star, and she turned from the wide open window. She looked at her younger sister, who was wearing the same robe as her, but in a royal shade of purple.
"Are you sure, Jeanette? I'm starting to worry." She said.
Jeanette nodded in response, lying down comfortably amongst the velvety blankets of her bed. "Even on tour, he'd remember to call you or something." She told her, removing her glasses. "Besides, we've got to get rested up. We're on tour as well, in case you've forgotten."
"I know… but today is special… I just can't believe our groups had the misfortune to have world tours today…" Brittany let out a disappointed sigh, sitting down on the window sill, one of her feet dangling outside.
"Listen. Just try to get some sleep; I'm sure Alvin is just as anxious as you are." Jeanette stopped to yawn, covering her mouth. "Or you can make the first move and call him." She suggested.
The purple clad girl was fast asleep soon after, breathing quietly as she slept. Brittany sighed again, unable to rest at all.
'First move, eh? I don't know… they're probably busy…. I can't just call him… can I?'
She fished her phone from the pocket of her robe and dialed Alvin's number, holding the phone to her ear.
'Please answer… pleeeease answer…'
The dial tone rang in her ear for what seemed like an agonizing eternity. Regrettably, Brittany hung up the phone and brought her knees up to her chest, holding her head down. A tear glistened as it streamed down her right cheek, falling down to the ground below.
'Don't you still care, Alvin? Do you even remember what happened that night?'
*~Flashback~*
"Don't push!" Brittany warned.
"Oh will you just relax? There's something I gotta tell ya." Alvin said, rolling his eyes.
The red clad was leading her to his room, a bit of a smile splayed on his face. He pushed his door open and gestured for her to sit on his bed. "I just can't let the others hear this. At least, not yet."
Reluctantly, Brittany sat on the very edge of his bed. "So? What's so important?"
Alvin locked the door and sat down beside her, resting one of his paws on top of hers. He looked out at the window, admiring the night time sky, countless stars hung up around the brilliantly gleaming moon. He sighed peacefully. "It's beautiful, isn't it?" he asked.
Brittany nodded, following his gaze. "I guess it is."
"You know what day it is, right?"
"Uh huh. Valentine's Day."
"And do you remember two years ago, today?" Alvin asked.
A slight blush had appeared on Brittany's cheeks as she nodded again. "Th-That was just an accident…" she whispered.
"It didn't feel like it. When we got close that day… I felt something. Like sparks, Brittany. Sparks." Alvin said.
Brittany shook her head and stood up, walking towards the door. "I didn't feel anything. It was an accidental kiss. I was falling, and you were just there." She said.
Alvin grabbed her by the arm gently. "Britt… I know when you're lying… A guy learns that about a girl he's interested in after a while." He looked into her eyes. "Please, sit back down."
"Fine." The pink clad plopped back onto his bed, legs folded Indian style.
"Look Brittany. Ever since that day, I just couldn't stop thinking about you. You were all in my mind, my thoughts, my dreams, everything. A day couldn't go by without me taking a few measly seconds, to countless minutes, just imagining what it would be like if we were together." He told her.
Her blush steadily grew deeper as he spoke, and Brittany tried her best to hide it. "I… I was thinking a little about you as well…" she admitted.
"Then I think you know what this means…" Alvin took both of her hands into his own, gently rubbing the smooth fur on the back of her hand.
"But… but… we're always arguing. Besides, the others would never let us live this down." Brittany insisted.
"We don't have to tell them, Britt. When they're around, we can act like we always do. But… when we're alone… we can let our feelings free…" Alvin scooted closer to her until the very tips of their noses gently pushed against the other.
"I'm worried… You know what'll happen if something this big goes public? We'd never have a moment's peace." Brittany said, looking down at her feet.
Alvin's hand cupped over her left cheek, raising her face just a little. "We can find a way. We always find ways to do what we want, so why let this be any different?" he asked.
The slightest of smiles appeared on Brittany's face as she leaned her head onto Alvin's palm, her eyes closing slowly. "Who says that it will be?" she responded.
"Then… is it official?" Alvin asked.
"How's this for an answer?" Brittany pressed her lips onto Alvin's, softly sighing through her nose as he returned the kiss happily. His lips parted slightly, and so did Brittany's. Their kiss deepened, both of them pulling each other closer until their bodies rubbed against each other.
After what felt like hours, they broke apart, panting with wide smiles on their faces. "I love you, Brittany." Alvin sighed.
"I…. I love you too." Brittany replied, giggling.
"What do we do now?"
"Shut up and kiss me again."
Their lips met again in another kiss and the two stayed together for a few minutes before breaking their kiss again.
"Brittany… I promise today, Valentine's Day, that you'll get a bouquet of roses and a kiss from me as long as we're together. And I'll never in my life, ever, break this promise to you." Alvin said.
"I'm gonna hold you to that, you know."
"That's the fun part…. You'll never let me forget this awesome moment…. And I won't let you."
Brittany just sighed and rested her head on Alvin's shoulder, holding his hand in both of hers.
*~End Flashback~*
The tears were flowing freely down her cheeks now. Brittany had left the room so that her crying wouldn't wake her sisters from their peaceful slumbers. She wiped her eyes slowly as her phone began to ring. One look at the caller id, and her heart nearly stopped.
"Alvin Seville" was displayed on the screen, surrounded by pictures of herself and him together in little heart shapes.
Brittany answered the phone quickly, her heart beating like a drum in her chest.
Brittany: H-Hello?
Alvin: Hello gorgeous. How are you tonight?
Brittany: *voice quivering* I-I was worried you'd forgotten…
Alvin: Hey hey. I promised to never forget. Not even when I'm busy.
Brittany: *sniffles and wipes her nose* So? How did your show go tonight? Or did you have to cancel?
Alvin: Heh. It went down just fine, Britt. But we'll be heading out for the next stop early in the morning. Anything I can do for you while I'm free?
Brittany: Sing the song with me, please.
Alvin: Total Eclipse of the Heart, right?
Brittany: Of course.
Alvin: *laughs a little* Alright. One… Two… Three… Four.
(Play the link mentioned earlier now!)
As the song ended, Brittany kissed her phone, before tensing up.
'That last part was a little loud…. C-can it be?'
She turned around and let out a loud gasp of surprise before scrambling to her feet just as Alvin turned the corner, smiling widely at her.
"A-Alvie!" She pulled him into a tight hug, crying onto his shoulder as she hugged him.
Alvin's hand went to the back of her head, gently running through her hair. He lifted her chin and silenced the chipette with a kiss. He wiped away her tears before separating from her, kissing her cheek.
"Surprised to see me, Bright Eyes?" he asked.
Brittany could only nod, keeping her hold on the red clad. "H-How did you know where I was?" she asked.
"Simple. We were just driving by, when we grabbed word that The Chipettes would be staying here, so I didn't stop asking Dave if we could visit until he agreed." Alvin answered.
Brittany just laughed and kisses his nose. "How much time do you have left?"
"We're gonna be staying the night here. I figure that's enough time for us to do a little catching up?" Alvin said.
"That's perfect…" Brittany sighed, leading Alvin down the hall. Their hands held on to each other tightly as they walked and talked, whispering amongst themselves whenever they weren't caught up with kissing each other. And that's how they spent the rest of their night, just each other with no one to ruin their moment together, all until they eventually gave in to sleep, holding their counterpart as close as they could.
