Hello again! I wanted to give you all a short but insightful intro for the second story,

Here's hoping you'll all take to this one as well as the first!

Enjoy!

It was a quiet, and strangely deserted day along the lane; Alvin Seville and Brittany Miller were walking along a pathway towards a park up ahead. The quiet was not just from the surrounding nature, the young boy and girl were not speaking. Which was unusual.

Usually, they'd have so much to say to each other, they'd send the whole neighbourhood bizerk with want of quiet.

Almost a whole year had gone by with these two not seeing each other, since the girls had gone on a holiday for summer, and the boys were giving concerts everywhere, the two trio's had been separated. It was near the end of winter already. And that meant one thing: spring.

Alvin's pure blue eyes set, unmoving, on the concrete in front of him, barely registering the fact that he was still walking when an arm shot out to stop him.

He looked up at Brittany's own, crystal, eyes and back down again, having an idea of what she wanted tot talk about out here.

'A-Alvin...' she began, but wasn't sure how to word her next thoughts, 'spring is... in, like, a week...' she bit her lip as Alvin went crimson. He always did, now, when spring was mentioned.

'S-so?' Alvin replied as casually as possible.

'I... I just wanted to know...' Brittany sighed, 'why did you... why Simon?'

Alvin's eyes went wide and he tripped over his words. 'B-Brittany, you know I didn't – couldn't – I didn't want to, it was j-just that – I knew – it was not my fault, Brit...' he concluded, 'and I wish... I wish it never happened...'

Brittany nodded. 'I'm sure you do.' She said earnestly.

Unbeknown to the two, if Simon himself were here to hear that comment from Alvin... he wouldn't take it well.

'I mean…' Alvin continued regardless, 'I didn't have… a –a choice, really.' He sighed. 'It was all… see…' he made towards a park bench slowly, Brittany following.

'I just wanted to know… you seemed so different. I didn't know how to talk to you.' Brittany told Alvin slowly. They sat slowly. 'Alvin, what happened last spring?' She concluded.

'I don't…' Alvin began, but Brittany gave him a small glare that immediately registered as "you owe me the explanation of a lifetime for that. Do it."

'So... so we were in heat and... our age makes it worse, and Simon was the only one who knew, and could help me, if ever it went off randomly...' Alvin explained in all basics.

Brittany nodded. 'I know about that, already. Jeanette told me all about your "pain" thing, and how you needed that kind of thing... but...' she bit her lip as she knew she was touching a soft subject, 'when I saw you... together... you looked like a couple to me. A happy couple. I didn't know what to say.' Brittany admitted. 'Especially when Simon came down. I mean, usually, you'd tell him to go away and mind his own business, or something, but you told him exactly what we were talking about.'

Alvin had a curious look on his features; he hardly remembered last spring. 'I... I guess I was just... it was...' he frowned. 'It doesn't matter, though, Brit, 'cause spring is gone. I don't want to think about last spring...' he stood. 'And if that's the only reason you wanted to talk to me, then I think I should get back home.'

Brittany gave a slight nod and Alvin turned, making his way back home, furious with how Brittany was acting. She knew he didn't want to think about it. She knew how much he regretted having it happen.

Exhaling, Alvin paced faster towards the house.

Like I said, short, but kind of "opening credits" for the story. I was thinking how every episode usually started with the Seville's house, so I wanted to end this with that.

So, Brittany's in here a bit more than last story, but you were all curious as to why she acted so nervous, I'm sure the plot will thicken as the story goes... and, not to worry, there are many more surprises in store XD

Still, definatly, an Alvin/Simon story. But, there'll probably be some Alvin/Brittany, too. But, I'm not too much counting on it. This story will also introduce an OC of mine, Cruise, but that's later :D
