I've been getting lots of inspiration and for some reason I've been feeling like writing more Alvin and The Chipmunks stories, thanks to the overwhelming amount of positive support I got on the one-shot I did I figured I'd make a full story since there isn't enough of them around. I guess that's all I have to say. I'll probably be focusing on this story for now and then I'll finish my Naruto story after. I hope you guys enjoy this, I have no clue how long it's going to be so we'll just go with it. Thank you all for the continuing support
(Once again, set in the CGI universe)

The sun rose once more in the city of Los Angeles, illuminating anything the light touched. The streets were already crowded with people trying to get to their day jobs early. Meanwhile, at the Seville residence, screaming could be heard from a block away and one word rung out in particular..
"ALVIIIIIIIIIIIN!" Dave yelled as he ran down the hallway after the red clad chipmunk
"You snooze you lose, Dave" Alvin giggled as he ran down the hallway, with the remaining half of Dave's toaster waffle.
Alvin ran down the hallway at blinding speeds before running into another figure who recoiled onto the floor and groaned in pain, Alvin immediately stopped running to look at the figure and knew who it was instantly. She was the lead singer of the Chippetes, Brittany Miller. Alvin quickly dropped the toaster waffle and rushed to aid her.
"Britt, I'm so sorry." Alvin said, helping Brittany back to her feet before being pushed away by her.
"Save it Alvin, I'm getting sick of this." Brittany grumbled, limping off on her own towards the kitchen.
Dave finally caught up with the red-clad chipmunk and grabbed him by the scruff of his hoodie.
"Alvin, what did you do to Brittany?" Dave asked.
"Well, I sort of collided with her when I was running away from you." Alvin said, nervously twiddling his thumbs together.
Dave sighed in annoyance and put Alvin on the couch before sitting down beside him.
"Alvin, your pranks are getting more and more out of control, what's worse you could've seriously injured one of your friends." Dave said, disappointment clear in his voice.
Alvin looked down at the ground; the regret was clearly evident in his face. "I'm sorry Dave. I'll try to tone it down. Promise." He said, still looking down at the ground.
Dave used his pointer finger to lift up Alvin's downtrodden chin, "I forgive you Alvin, but maybe you should apologize to Brittany and maybe you could try being a bit nice to her? " Dave said with a smile.
Alvin smiled and nodded before getting off the couch and heading towards the kitchen, Dave returned to his bedroom to get dressed in his working attire.
Alvin saw that nobody else was awake yet, he and Brittany were usually the first to wake up so it wasn't that surprising that she was sitting in the kitchen alone, clutching her injured leg.
"Britt?" Alvin called out nervously.
Brittany sighed in annoyance, "What is it Alvin?" She asked as she winced at the pain in her leg.
"I'm really sorry." Alvin said.
"You always say that." Brittany huffed.
Alvin thought about it for a bit, he really does do that a lot, "Actions speak louder than words" he thought to himself as he left the room for a minute and went to the bathroom, he opened the drawer and pulled the first aid kit, Alvin pulled out some small animal painkiller pills and a bandage. He went back to the kitchen and sat next to Brittany who was more than confused at this point.
"What are you doing?" Brittany asked.
"Take this it'll help, Promise." Alvin said, handing her the painkiller pill before grabbing the bandage off the counter.
Alvin looked at the bruise on Brittany's leg and felt a wave of guilt pang through him, a single tear left his eye and landed on Brittany's leg, this didn't go unnoticed by Brittany but she didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
Alvin began to wrap the bandage around the bruise, making sure he double layered it to make sure Brittany's leg was well protected.
Brittany looked at her leg, thanks to the pressure applied by the bandage and the painkiller her leg didn't hurt much at all. She smiled and looked at Alvin. "Thanks Alvin"
"You don't have to thank me; I'm the one that hurt you in the first place." Alvin said.
Brittany was to say the least, surprised by Alvin's level of maturity. Not only did he own up to his mistakes but he's trying really hard to make amends for what he did.
"Do you need anything else Britt?" Alvin asked.
Brittany was a bit taken back by Alvin's sudden generosity but welcomed the change; she really didn't have anything else for Alvin to do so she just shook her head.
"No thanks Alvin," She smiled.
"Really, you don't need anything?" Alvin asked, raising and eyebrow
"Well, I'm sort of hungry." Brittany admitted.
Almost instantly, Alvin swept Brittany off her feet bridal style and carried her towards the couch, making sure that extra support was given to her injured leg. Alvin moved the pillows on the couch so that her head and injured leg were supported by pillows.
"I'll go get you some food, just wait." Alvin said as he hurried back to the kitchen
Brittany blushed slightly at the care Alvin was showing her, it wasn't that bad of an injury but he was treating her like a queen, she made a promise to herself that she would ask him why his attitude suddenly changed so rapidly.
"Here, I know you don't like honey because of the calories so I just kept it plain." Alvin said as he handed the toaster waffle to Brittany and then sat beside her, massaging her feet.
"Alvin, it's not that I don't like the attention but why did your attitude change all of a sudden?" Brittany asked.
"I had a talk with Dave. He said that I need to stop being so annoying and that I need to act nicer to you." Alvin smiled.
"Alvin… I wasn't that annoyed with you. I'm sorry I made such a big deal out of it" Brittany said, keeping eye contact with Alvin.
"Don't apologize Britt. You had every right to be mad at me, I promise I won't pull a stunt like that ever again and... I'll try to be nicer to you. He said the last part with a smile.
Brittany smiled at Alvin, "Thanks Alvin it means a lot." She said with a smile.
Before they could continue the conversation any further the remaining four chipmunks woke up from their sleep and exited the room.
"What are you guys doing?" Simon question as he looked at his brother rubbing Brittany's feet
Alvin scratched his head nervously, he couldn't think of anything to say. Luckily Brittany saved him from complete embarrassment
"He's being nice to me, for once." Brittany said, winking at Alvin.
"Alvin… is being nice?" Eleanor said, confused
"Hey! I can be nice!" Alvin pouted
Everyone giggled before Jeanette gasped, she saw that her sisters leg was covered in a bandage and immediately rushed over to assist her.
"Brittany, what happened?" She said, looking at her bandaged leg.
Alvin felt a pang of guilt go through his body as he saw the scared look on Jeanette's face.
"Well, I sort of slipped and hurt my leg. It's nothing to worry about." Brittany said, rubbing Jeanette's shoulders.
Alvin looked surprised as Brittany lied about how she got the injury. Alvin looked at the worried expression on Jeanette's face, he knew that he had to tell the truth.
"Jeanette, it was my fault." Alvin sighed, looking at the Chippete.
"What did you do this time?" Jeanette said.
Alvin put his hands in the pockets of his hoodie and looked at Brittany before returning his focus to Jeanette.
"I was being stupid, I was running away from Dave and I didn't look where I was going and I ran into Brittany. I hurt her because I took my prank way to far." He said, his eyes were focused on the ground.
Jeanette scurried over to him and put her hand on his shoulder. "At least you confessed to it Alvin, I assume you put those bandages around her leg?" Jeanette asked.
"Yeah, she looked really hurt and I felt… guilty." Alvin said
Jeanette smiled at Alvin, he was actually being really mature about the situation. "Alvin, I'll take care of Brittany for now. Why don't you and the boys go get ready for school?" She said.
Alvin smiled and nodded he walked off the couch and looked at Brittany, who mouthed a 'thank you' with a smile on her face.
"So, what's with the sudden change of attitude Alvin?" Simon asked, putting a blue hoodie over his head.
"Well, Dave was talking to me and I guess I realize that my pranks don't really make people laugh, all they do is hurt people." Alvin said.
"I like your pranks Alvin." Theodore said with a cute smile.
Alvin smiled back and ruffled his little brothers hair, "I'm just going to tone them down for a while, ok Theo?" He said
Theodore smiled and nodded and slipped his green hoddie over his head.
"Fellas, you ready?" Dave asked as he poked his head inside the door.
The chipmunks nodded and make their way outside, as they exited the room Alvin saw that Brittany was still limping and had a sad expression on his face.
Alvin looked up at Dave, "Hey Dave, do we still have those small crutches from when I hurt my leg?" Alvin asked.
Dave looked confused but then Alvin returned his gaze to Brittany, Dave noticed this and smiled. "Yeah I think we still do. They might be in the spare room, but don't take to long. We're leaving in 5 minutes." Dave said as Alvin ran off towards the spare room.
"Where's Alvin going?" Theodore asked.
"He'll be back soon Theo." Dave said as he motioned the Chipmunks and the Chippetes towards the door.
Alvin rummaged through the old stash of memories looking for the crutches and came upon a picture that made him smile, it was the first time he and Brittany performed a song together, they both had one arm wrapped around each other and were taking a bow.
"I promise I'll try harder to be a better person." Alvin said as he rubbed the photo before placing it back down and picking up the crutches and running out the room.
"Alvin, hurry up!" Dave yelled.
Alvin heard this and picked up his pace not wanting to make Dave late work again, he finally caught up with everyone else and slowed down.
"Where were you?" Eleanor asked.
"Just getting these." Alvin said as he gave Brittany his old crutches.
Brittany gasped and smiled, Alvin was getting major points in her book right now. She'd never admit it but he certainly started looking like boyfriend potential.
"Thanks Alvin.' She said as she but the crutches under her arms, it felt a lot better than limping around everywhere. That was for sure.
"I'll carry your bag." Alvin said as he picked up Brittany's school bag and made his way towards the car with the rest of the Chipmunks, leaving the Chippetes behind.
Brittany sighed happily as she watched Alvin walk away; her sisters noticed this and smiled at each other.
"So when's the wedding?" Eleanor asked a cheeky smile evident on her face.
Brittany was taken back at this and rolled her eyes at her sister, "Please, we're just good friends, Nothing more." Brittany responded.
"Why did you start smiling when you saw him then?" Jeanette asked
"Shut up Jeanette!" Brittany blushed and pouted before her and her sisters made their way towards the car.
The Chipmunks and Chippetes got out of the car and waved goodbye to Dave, before continuing to walk.
People walking past noticed that Brittany was in crutches and that Alvin was carrying her things for her, earning "aww's" from female bystanders, making Brittany blush.
"I'll carry your stuff to class for you until your leg feels better." Alvin said, smiling at Brittany.
"But what about your things?" Brittany asked.
"I'll just grab the things I need and carry them with your stuff." Alvin said, not wanting to worry Brittany.
"Alvin… what you're doing means a lot to me, thanks." Brittany smiled.
"It's my fault Britt; this is the least I can do for you." Alvin replied.
"We have classes together all day, are you sure you want to carry my things all day?" Brittany asked.
"It's not a problem Brit, seriously." Alvin smiled at her.
Jeanette caught up with the two and then whispered in Brittany's ear, "So, 'just friends'?" Jeanette giggled.
Brittany thought about it for a while, what was Alvin Seville to her, they were certainly friends without a doubt, but was there something more? Now that he has this new attitude it really gave her the chance to see him in a new light. All he wanted to do was please her and make amends for his mistakes."
"Sometimes I'm not so sure." Brittany said, whispering to Jeanette.
Just then, the school bell rang and all the students hurried off towards their class, Brittany sighed, she was going to be late because she couldn't move as fast as the other students.
"Alvin, you're going to be late if you stay with me." Brittany said.
"I don't mind, I'd take your company over maths any day." Alvin smiled, making Brittany blush.
The two finally reached their maths class; the teacher noticed how late they were and frowned.
"Seville, Miller. You two are over 5 minutes late. You better have a good excuse."
"Well um…" Brittany hated explaining herself to teachers, it was always so awkward.
"Britt hurt her leg and couldn't get to class on time." Alvin said, motioning toward Brittany's injured leg.
"What's your excuse?" The teacher asked Alvin.
"I didn't want to leave her by herself." Alvin said, earning even more "aww's" from the females in the classroom and a blush from Brittany.
The teacher sighed, there was no point in giving him a detention from caring about his friends.
"Fine, sit down and write down what's currently on the board." The teacher said before resuming the lesson.
The lunch bell rang and Alvin and Brittany exited their maths class and made their way to the lunch table that all the munks sat at, once they reached the table Alvin helped Brittany up to the table earning smiles from Jeanette and Eleanor and confused looks from his brothers.
"So how did Maths go for everyone?" Theodore asked.
"About as well as you think, I don't get it at all." Alvin sighed
"Me neither." Brittany said.
Neither of them were any good at maths and as such, got moved down the lower maths class where they still didn't understand it, they did lessons with Simon sometimes, he was happy to help them out as they did most of Simon's P.E assignments for him.
"You'll get it, just keep trying." Jeanette said.
"I don't know, it's just really complicated sometimes." Brittany said.
"Hey Alvin!" Ryan said, walking over with his 'crew'
"Hey Ryan." Alvin said, high fiving the man
"So you up for football practice next lunch break?" Ryan asked.
"Yeah—" Alvin was about to agree until he looked at Brittany rubbing her leg in pain.
"I'll have to miss out on it." Alvin said.
"If you miss it, I can't guarantee you a spot in the next game bro." Ryan said.
Brittany looked at Alvin; he looked at her and smiled.
"It's alright; Luke can fill in my spot." Alvin said.
"Alright bro, we'll tell you how the game goes." Ryan said, extending his fist.
"Good luck guys." Alvin said, fist bumping Ryan.
As the jocks walked away Alvin looked back at the table to see everyone's shocked look.
"What?" Alvin said.
Brittany had some small tears welling up in her eyes and a smile plastered on her face.
"Jeanette, did you want to come study with me?" Simon asked, wanting to let Alvin and Brittany have some alone time.
Jeanette quickly nodded leaving the table with Simon, "We'll go to!" Theo and Eleanor said in unison, leaving only Alvin and Brittany.
"What's wrong Britt?" Alvin asked.
Brittany didn't respond, she just leaned over and embraced Alvin tightly.
"It means a lot that you did that for me Alvin." She said, not breaking the embrace.
Alvin smiled to himself as he hugged her, smelling the sweet strawberry aroma that surrounded her.
"It's okay Britt. You mean more to me than a stupid game of Football." He said, looking into her electric blue eyes.
Brittany blushed under her fur, she leaned in and kissed Alvin on the cheek. She giggled at the shocked look plastered on Alvin face as he felt the spot where she kissed him.
"I… um… I…" Alvin struggled to get words out, making Brittany giggled even more.
"I thought you deserved a proper thank you for being so nice today." Brittany smiled.
"I'll have to be nice more often." Alvin said with a wide smile.
The school bell rang and Alvin, Jeanette and Brittany met up to go to Chemistry together.
Jeanette stood next to Brittany as Alvin grabbed her books out of her locker.
"So, still on the fence about him?" Jeanette asked.
Brittany sighed. "I know he cares, but this might just be a one day thing. I want to wait and see if his attitude stays the same." Brittany said, looking at the boy grabbing her books out of the locker.
"Okay, I got them all!" Alvin said.
"Let's go then" Jeanette said, motioning for the two to hurry to class.
