AN: Hi! This is just a little drabble songfic type thing that randomly popped into my head one day. The song was put in later after I realized the random placeholder title I'd given the file shared the name of a song The Chipmunks had covered that really really fit the story.
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING. The Chipmunks and all mentioned characters belong to Bagdasarian Productions, and all song lyrics belong to their rightful owners. Thanks for reading!
"Alvin, you can't keep doing this to yourself! Do you even realize what harmful consequences this might have? Pick up the phone." Beep.
"Alvin Seville, pick up the phone right now or I'm coming over there." Beep.
"Alvin, I'm going to try one more time to convince you to pick up the phone. I know it's hard to get through your thick skull." Beep.
"Alvin, I'm loosing my patience with you. Pick. Up. The. Phone." Beep.
"Alvin. Please, I'm begging you, pick up the phone! Do you have any idea how worried we are about you?! Pick up the damn phone, Alvin!" Beep.
Alvin Seville chuckled as he pressed the button on the answering machine to play the next message. Simon was totally over-reacting. He wasn't doing anything that should cause his family worry.
He felt good. He was finally happy again. He was content.
He didn't have to worry about the fact he was lost to the public's eye. He didn't have to worry about the fact he was no longer a star. He didn't have to worry about anything.
A serene smile crept onto his face as he turned over his arm and was met with the mark from his last fix. That's right, he was just fine. His head was up in the clouds, now.
I can catch the moon in my hands,
Don't you know who I am?
Remember my name,
Fame.
I'm gonna live forever,
Baby remember my name.
"Alvin, a-are you alright? Simon said you haven't answered the phone for days! W-we're worried about you, Alvin. Are you sick? Are you hurt? Please call me back." Beep.
"Alvin, stop being such an asshole. People are trying to contact you, for God's sake! Are you dead in there or something?!" Beep.
"Please answer the phone Alvin. I've been trying to call you for days. Stop ignoring me. I even got Theodore and Brittany to call you. If you don't answer the next time I call I am going to come over there. Don't you think I won't." Beep.
Fame.
I'm gonna live forever,
I'm gonna learn how to fly.
High.
I feel it coming together,
People will see me and cry.
Fame.
The messages kept coming, and Alvin kept on going. The marks littered his arms.
When his brother got there, he'd know just why his calls had been left unanswered.
I'm gonna make it to heaven,
Light up the sky like a flame.
Fame.
I'm gonna live forever,
Baby remember my name.
Thanks for reading!
