"Just where do you think you're going, Seville?"
"Catch me if you can, Britt!"
I raced at full speed dodging the trees and avoiding branches in attempt to run away from Brittany. I caught her in my arms and threw her in the lake because she kept teasing me about how I lost to her on Just Dance 2016. Let's say she is now soaking wet and extremely pissed at me and that I'm just laughing lots and running for dear life.
"I swear, Alvin, when I get my hands on you I'll-" She approached me but I managed to run faster.
"Last I checked, Brittany, chipmunks got paws, and you can do nothing against me." I laughed at my comment, knowing it would only piss her even more. She growled furiously in response. Boy, I was right.
"Oh, really? Then why are you running away, if I can't do anything against you?" When she said that, I didn't have a quick comeback and stopped, not knowing what I was doing.
Brittany didn't notice my abrupt stop and crashed into me. We both yelped and rolled on the grass until I stopped on top of her.
I opened my eyes and saw her rubbing her head. "You stupid idiot, why did you stop-" When she saw the position we were currently in, her face blushed dangerously. I couldn't help blushing also, and we just stood there, looking into each other's eyes, not knowing what to do.
Brittany's eyes were always beautiful to me, but being so close to them right now put me into a sort of trance. The two sapphire blue irises stared straight into my golden hazel ones and a bunch of memories rushed through my mind. By the look she was giving me, the both of us were thinking the same, and it made me crack a smile. She smiled sweetly at me and quickly realized I was still on top of her. She shook her head.
"Would you get off of me?" She asked sharply, snapping me out of my thoughts. I was starting to like this, so I wouldn't give up so easily.
"Nope. It's really comfortable here. I think I'll take a nap." I said, nuzzling her neck and hugging her.
She rolled her eyes. "Alvin, I want to get up. Save your nap for when we get home." I chuckled and looked up at her. "Only if you promise to be my pillow."
She huffed out a sigh, clearly annoyed. "Never in a million years. Get off."
I sighed and gave her my cutest puppy eyes, pouting. She arched an eyebrow and smirked. "Why all of a sudden you want me to be your pillow? It should be the contrary."
I raised a brow, smirking back. "But I asked first. Therefore, you have to be my pillow."
"Fine. Will you be my blanket?" She smiled and rolled her eyes playfully.
I smiled back and hugged her close to me, already giving the answer. She wrapped her arms around me and giggled. "I'll take that as a yes."
I laughed and nuzzled into her neck, closing my eyes. We were silent, enjoying each other's presence, and I honestly couldn't believe it was happening. If someone told me yesterday that Brittany and I would be hugging each other on the grass of the park, I'd call them crazy at the point of saying something so ridiculous.
I started playing with the fur on her cheek tracing soft circles in it while I heard her soft breathing. My eyes were still closed and I breathed softly against her neck, until I heard her call my name.
"Alvin?" I raised my head to meet her eyes. She just smiled and stroked my cheek. "I love you." She whispered softly.
My eyes widened and a smile appeared in my features. I gently ran my paw through her hair, stroking it. "I love you too."
Her smile grew wide and we locked gazes again. I soon found myself leaning towards Brittany and I could tell she was doing the same.
Our faces were only inches away and I could feel her breath getting closer…
My eyes closed and our lips were almost touching when I heard someone…
Alvin…
I opened my eyes a little to glance at Brittany. Nothing escaped from her lips.
Alvin... Come on…
I raised an eyebrow. What's going on? I closed my eyes again.
"ALVIINNN!"
And that's when I opened my eyes quickly screaming.
"Brittany!" She was gone. I breathed heavily, acknowledging my surroundings. I was in my bedroom. No park. And no Brittany. Dammit. Would it hurt to wait a few minutes? We were about to freaking kiss!
"Oh, finally Brittany let you go, I see." Simon said sarcastically, crossing his arms.
I groaned, rubbing my eyes. "What do you want, Simon?"
"Get up and have breakfast. Everyone is waiting for you downstairs." He lowered his voice. "Even Brittany."
I glared at him and he chuckled. "Ha ha. Very funny." I slowly got up and hopped off the bunk, heading to the bathroom.
"Hey, Alvin?" Simon called after me. I turned around, rolling my eyes. "What?"
He approached me. "That's the sixth time I find you dreaming about Brittany. You mumble her name every time you do. What's the matter?" My eyes widened. So I talk while I'm dreaming?
"I don't know, Si. I can't stop thinking about her and I dream about her every night." He nodded. "Do you think she heard me any time?" A hint of desperation appeared in my voice.
"I don't believe so. I ask you to be careful, though. It could be really embarrassing if she found out, don't you think?" He put a paw on my shoulder and I nodded.
"Anyway, thanks for waking me up. I don't know what I would do if it was her or any of her sisters." I scratched the back of my neck, chuckling.
He chuckled and nudged me. "No problem. That's what brothers are for, right? Now get yourself ready." I smiled and watched him leave before entering the bathroom.
After I took my shower and got dressed, I went downstairs to have breakfast. Dave was in the kitchen washing the dishes and greeted me cheerfully.
"Good morning, Alvin! Have a seat."
"Morning, dad!" I answered, taking a seat and eating my toaster waffles.
He sat beside me and started eating a bowl of cereal.
"Dave, can we go to the movies after school? There's this new sequel of Star Wars and I can't wait to watch it."
Dave raised his brows. "Oh, really? Did you talk to your brothers and the girls?"
"Yep. Last Night. They want to go." I said, taking another bite of my food.
Dave smiled and shrugged. "Well, since is the first day of school and you probably won't have any homework, you can go. Guys! Come here!"
I watched as Jeanette and Brittany hopped on the table. My heart started racing and I couldn't help but feel a light blush come to my cheeks when Brittany made eye contact with me and gave me that gorgeous smile of hers.
"Good morning, Alvin." She and Jeanette said in unison. I smiled widely at her and answered. "Good morning, Britt. Morning, Jean."
Dave raised an eyebrow. "Where are the others?"
Jeanette turned to Dave. "Eleanor and Simon are trying to convince Theodore to get out of the bathroom. We have PE today and he is scared of Ryan."
"Oh, poor Theo. I'll go and talk to him." Dave got up and walked to the bathroom with Jeanette after him. Brittany stood on the table and we looked at each other.
"You're not going?" I asked her. She only shrugged. "I don't think they'll need my help. I'm not the best at the 'cheering up' subject."
"Tell me about it. You really cheered me up while we were stranded on that island." I smirked.
She rolled her eyes and smirked back. "Not helping, Seville. What did you expect me to say, anyway?"
I finished my waffles and walked up to her. "I don't know? Maybe 'Calm down, Alvin. I'm sure Dave is looking for us. You just have to be patient. He loves you, you know.', something of the sort."
She laughed. "Why didn't you comfort yourself, then? You seem pretty good at it."
"It's not the same. It has more effect when it's said by someone who's important to you." I shrugged, smiling.
Since the moment we met, my feelings for Brittany have only grown. I knew it was love since I landed eyes on her and we are best friends nowadays, not being afraid to show it to anyone. Maybe we show too much affection towards each other. If I want to hug her and kiss her, I'd do it without thinking twice, not caring about who was watching. But I don't know if she loves me the way I love her and thinking about it terrifies me. What if I confess and she doesn't feel the same? Worse, what if we ruined our friendship? I couldn't bear neither of the options, so I kept hiding my feelings, maybe waiting for the right time.
She blushed lightly and quickly shook her head. "Alvin, can I ask you something?"
"Anything." I put an arm around her shoulders.
"It was you screaming my name earlier?" She looked at me.
I froze for a second. "Yeah, it was me. Why?" It was better not lie, but I couldn't give details.
"I could ask you the same thing." She giggled, grabbing the paw that rested on her shoulder and intertwining our fingers.
I scratched the back of my neck nervously, thinking on a quick answer. "Well… Because…" She looked at me, waiting patiently. "…I thought it was you waking me up, but then I saw it was Simon." Gosh, Simon did warn me.
She faked a hurt look. "Would you yell at me for waking you up, Alvie?" I rolled my eyes and chuckled. "Maybe." She narrowed her eyes walked away from me. "And I thought that it would be nice to stay here with you instead of helping your brother… Guess I was wrong."
I walked up to her and grinned, knowing she was just teasing me. "Nope, you were right. I would drag you out of the bathroom if you didn't come to see me." I wrapped my arms around her waist and planted a soft kiss on her cheek. She crossed her arms and frowned, looking away.
"Jerk." She mumbled. Whoa. Did she really get mad over this? I was kidding!
"Wait. Are you really mad?" When she didn't say anything, I got my answer. "Brittany, you know I was kidding!"
She glared at me and huffed, looking away once more. I smirked. So she wanted to play it this way, huh?
"Britt…" I said softly, my arms never leaving her waist. I kissed her cheek again. "I'm sorry. Alvie didn't mean to upset you. Forgive me?" She looked at me with a hard expression and looked away. Again.
I laughed. She was so cute when she was mad. I leaned in and kissed each of her cheeks over and over, saying 'sorry' afterwards. She closed her eyes and had an arched brow. I knew she was liking it but didn't want to show, so I closed my eyes and smiled, kissing her more softly.
"Britt, why don't you forgive Alvie so we can go?"
I opened my eyes and stepped away from Brittany instantly. Her face was as red as my hoodie and I could tell the same about mine, due to the heat I felt. Eleanor was smirking and our siblings were in a laughing fit in the background. Theodore and Dave were no exceptions.
"Were we interrupting something, guys?" Dave asked, raising an eyebrow and trying to hide his amused smirk.
"Uh… Uh…" I stuttered, not knowing what to say. We usually did it in public and wouldn't even budge, but right now I felt something different, like I was being caught doing something wrong… or too right. Maybe because it was a special moment between us, I don't know, but it made the both of us clearly uncomfortable.
"No, of course not." Brittany suddenly spoke up. She was embarrassed as much as myself and I noticed she didn't want to talk about it. "Shall we? School starts in fifteen minutes."
"Then we must go. Everybody to the car." Dave said, smiling.
"Are you sure, Britt? We don't want to interrupt whatever you guys were doing… It seemed really important." Eleanor teased, slightly amused.
Before Brittany could say something, I spoke up.
"Gimme a break, Eleanor." I retorted, hopping off the table and landing on the floor.
I heard some snickering and rolled my eyes. What was so funny about it? I shook my head and ran through the cat door. They followed me to the car and I sat alone on the backseat, until Brittany came and sat by my side, intertwining our fingers.
"I forgive you." She whispered in my ear and then kissed my cheek. We both giggled and I rolled my eyes before resting my head on the crook of her neck and nibbling it playfully. She slapped my cheek and we laughed, waiting for Dave to enter the car.
Hey people of this world (and from another worlds), you just read the first chapter of my newest story "He Is Not What You Think"! I disappeared for some time but with a valid excuse: I was thinking how to develop this story (which will be a multi chapter) and because I needed to live my life (and read other AMAZING fanfictions :D). The idea for this story is just perfect, but I had so much difficult in developing it, so I took a long time to think about it and here we are with the first chapter! *sighs heavily* What did you think about it? In my opinion, it didn't go as I expected, but I guess that'll do. (Writer's block and all that crap) I learned to like it and hope you do too, cause I'm really excited about it. After reading a thousand stories for a thousand years (three, actually) it's only fair I write one myself, right? Anyway, feel free to suggest anything or to say I shouldn't write this and try another story… Revieeew XD
Did anyone see Road Chip? I only have three words for it.
Best. Movie. Ever.
Although I think the chipettes could have been more present and that they could've put some Alvittany moments into it, the movie was AMAZING :3
Please review and tell me what did you think about the story!
Peace and Love!
