Spring Getaway
Ch 1
"The News"
It was a Sunday night and my sisters and I were over at the boys having dinner when Dave dropped the news about our Spring Break.
Alvin looked at me and then at his father.
"Ok so you're telling me that this year for spring we're actually on vacation? No concerts or anything? Wow I can't wait we need a vacation; we're overdue. That will be nice for all of us. Don't you think Britt?"
I smiled.
"Yes I think that would be nice for all of us. Hopefully some quality time for all of us without our hectic schedules. Just kick back and relax taking on the sites of Bali and the beaches too. I need a tan for real."
Alvin just looked.
"You look fine you don't need a tan. Yes I heard the beaches were nice and there is a lot couples can do there. Simon and Theodore what are you two doing? Did you hear a word that Dave said? Oh man am I the only one listening about our Spring Break?"
Simon looked.
"Yes we heard Dave that's what we were talking about with the girls you hot head."
He just looked.
"Oh really then why didn't you answer when Dave asked you what you thought about it? I did and so did Britt? So now explain genius!"
I heard Dave yell.
"Alvin can one night go by that you don't fight with your brother? What is it with you 2?"
Alvin sighed as he took the dishes to the sink and washed them. I just shook my head and looked at my sisters.
"Come on Jeanie and Ellie we have to get home it's dark. Besides we have school in the morning…..and have to get our beauty sleep. Goodnight boys see you in the morning. Goodnight Alvin I love you."
He dried off his hands and took my hand and his brothers did the same. Then all 3 said at the same time.
"We'll be right back after we walk the girls home. "
Dave just laughed.
"Alright boys see you in a bit. When you get back Alvin I want those dishes done! Do you understand me young man?"
Alvin looked.
"Yes Dave I know. See you in a bit. Bye."
I couldn't help but laugh.
"You're something else I swear Alvin darling. But I'm glad you're all mine. Just think a week in Bali away from our fans, the paparazzi, and work. I can just imagine what is in store for you and I especially since spring for us is…..you know what season?"
He just stared.
"Umm yes but can we not talk about that right now both my brothers are looking at me. Britt please we'll talk when they're not around us drop it."
I stared and just snuggled up to him as we all walked to our tree house. When we got to our tree house my sisters and I invited them in for a bit. Because Eleanor made a fresh batch of brownies that she wanted us to try. He agreed and him and his brothers entered out tree house behind us and sat at the kitchen table. Eleanor dished out the brownies while I poured the milk for all of us. Then we joined them at the table and had our milk and brownies. After we finished our brownies and milk the boys kissed us goodnight and we watched as they walked down the street toward their house.
We all entered our tree house again and Jeanette did the dishes while I cleaned up the table and we all got ready for bed. I stared at my ceiling and sighed as I stared at his picture smiling at me. Eleanor entered my room and tapped me.
"Can you believe it? The Chipettes are with the Chipmunks? We have everything Britt, our fame, the popularity we so longed for, and 3 wonderful guys that love us? What more could we possibly want? I just don't understand why it took the 3 of us so long to realize what they meant to us? I mean you and Alvin always fought and now I barely hear you two argue. When is your anniversary if I may ask?"
I smiled and looked at her.
"Oh valentine's Day though we got together a week before but we both decided it should be on Valentine's Day what about you and Theo?"
My sister just smiled at me.
"A few days after Valentine's Day I think. You're the lucky one on Valentine's Day….has he showed a romantic side yet? Or just his plain personality? I mean Theo is so romantic and I'm so glad we're together. "
I sighed and stared.
"He can be when he wants to…..but he's a hell of a kisser. I can't speak after our lips meet. He's just so sweet to me now and yells at his groupies when they try and get with him. I mean so many of his fans are constantly nagging on him to give them a chance. I mean it's not that easy Ellie…I contain my anger when he flirts but then also remember I'm the one who has the pleasure of being in his arms when he gets off that stage. A luxury his fans can only dream of! Anyway goodnight Ellie see you in the morning. I'm very happy for you and Theo."
I watched as Eleanor exited my room and pulled my covers over me after I put my cell on the charger. Then I set my alarm and drifted off to sleep holding my Alvin doll close to my heart as I slept. I heard a knock on my door and recognized Jeanie's voice.
"Yes Jeanie come in I'm still up. The door is open."
She entered and sat on my bed.
"Oh Britt I can't believe how lucky I am to have Simon holding me in his arms. All I could ever do was dream about him feeling the same way about me that I have since the 1st day we met them. Now my dream has come true and I'm the one he holds in his arms when he comes off the stage. I feel so lucky to have a man like that to love. What about you?"
I sighed.
"Oh yes I feel the same way you do. I've never had a boyfriend that showed such an interest in my well being as he does. He seems so conceited sometimes but then when he takes my hand he's a different person…and I have the pleasure of sharing it with him. He is my everything and I wish we would've known sooner. So many petty fights could have been avoided if we weren't so stubborn through the years. Jeanie I'm so happy for you; that you have finally landed a guy who loves you for who you are and not the fame. You two are perfect for one another and you have to try and get through the hurt he feels cause of his ex Gillian. According to Alvin she really hurt him after he went through so much humiliation to get with her. Then when they came back from a tour poor Simon was crushed when Gillian's lips were pressed against another guy's especially after they made a year.
Jeanette sighed.
"Yes I know that Britt; and I try to but sometimes it's so hard. She shoves it in his face that he just wasn't worth her time cause of his touring, the signings and the fans screaming when he and his brothers exit the limo. I feel his pain and want him to be more open with me about what she put him through but he won't. What do you suggest I do?"
I thought for a second.
"Try to be as supportive as you can while he gets over her dumping
him and then I'm pretty sure he'll be more open with you than he
is right now. Jeanie it'll be alright. Get some rest and be glad
you are the one he has in his arms. See you in the morning I love
you."
She smiled at me.
"I will thank you Britt. I'm so lucky to have an elder sister I can actually talk to. Goodnight Britt I love you to… Goodnight Ellie see you in the morning to."
I smiled as I fixed my pillow and put my mask on.
"You're very welcome Jeanie that's what elder sisters are 4. Now get some rest we have school in the morning."
After I knew my sisters were fast asleep I myself drifted off to sleep.
