A/N: In time for the next major holiday (I think), Valentine's Day, I'm starting a multi-chap fic for my favorite Chipmunk couple, Alvidore. It is a CGI story, but has no relation to my other Alvidore stories.

As disclaimer, I do not own the Chipmunks. If I did, the CGI movies would've turned into a new cartoon series.

Please review if you can and enjoy the story!

Day 1- Tuesday, February 7

Stitch to the Wound

Theodore walked lamentably into the house, Eleanor following behind. Both had just returned from their extracurricular cooking class, so everyone else was home before they were. Alvin and Brittany turned their attention from the television to the couple, expressions of worry and confusion for their youngest siblings evident on their faces. They could easily see that Theodore was sobbing uncontrollably , and somehow it was clear that Eleanor had something to do with it. What could the green-clad chipette have done to bring her counterpart to tears?

"Theodore please listen to me, it wasn't-" Eleanor started as they entered the house.

"Don't tell me it wasn't what it looked like!" Theodore snapped as he turned back around, making the girl jump a bit. "You kissed him Eleanor. Right in front of me! I had my back turned for two seconds and you had to betray me like that?"

"Theo-" Eleanor tried to speak again to explain herself.

"Don't 'Theo' me Eleanor!" Theodore cut her off again, not wanting to hear her excuses. "How could you do such a thing to me? Do I mean anything to you?"

"You're my best friend Theodore..." Eleanor trailed off, unable to finish. She knew she had made a terrible and idiotic mistake.

"You were my best friend." Theodore growled, turning around. "We're fucking through."

Everyone around them gasped in shock. Theodore was the type that never cursed, even if he was angry. And he never would've cursed at Eleanor under any circumstances. With that last sentence, Theodore stuffed his paws in his hoodie pocket and walked away into his bedroom, leaving his now ex-girlfriend with her mouth hanging open, unable to find a reaction. Brittany quickly went to her sister's side, while her boyfriend went to console his little brother.

"El," Brittany began as she sat Eleanor down on the couch. "You mind telling me what happened at cooking class today?"

Eleanor shook her head as she explained what had occurred in their absence. It was going to be a long story.


"Teddy..." Alvin jumped onto Theodore's bed.

(The room was back to the way it was before the Chipettes moved in, one bed for each of the three brothers. Ever since the boys started dating their female counterparts, their human guardian, Dave, separated them to their own rooms. One room for the three boys and another for the three girls. This was to ensure that his children wouldn't engage in anything they were too young to handle. Having two teenagers in love in the same room spelled disaster.)

Theodore sat against his pillow, attempting to wipe away his tears. He didn't like crying in front of his oldest brother, it made him feel like an embarrassment.

"I-I'm sorry Alvin." Theodore stammered as he began to hold back tears. "I shouldn't be crying over her..."

"How many times have I told you?" Alvin smiled as he held his brother close. "It's ok to cry. It doesn't make you any weaker of a person."

Theodore's eyes released the tears like a dam that just broke. Every feeling of hurt, betrayal, and loneliness poured out with them. Alvin patted his little brother's head as he felt the tears soak his hoodie.

"Sh-She cheated on me Alvin." Theodore sobbed. "I feel so used and betrayed."

"You want to tell me the whole story?" Alvin asked as he separated from the embrace. Theodore nodded as he laid down, Alvin right next to him.

Theodore and Eleanor seemed like the perfect pair. It was as if both were literally created for each other. In fact, their siblings tried to follow the youngest's example in their own relationships. Both had a love for food, their fights were playful, and they never left one another's side. In a way, the were the very definition of the term 'soul mates'. Today, that very assumption was proven dead wrong.

It had been a strange day in their cooking class that afternoon. Theodore was on edge about a new student who had appeared a few weeks earlier, a fellow chipmunk named Kyle. At first, Theodore thought nothing of the new kid and attempted to make friends. That was until he saw Kyle giving Eleanor those looks. Natural jealousy arose in the plump chipmunk and had become defensive about his girlfriend. There was no way he was going to let this new munk swoop in from nowhere and steal his girlfriend. But his worry grew as Eleanor paid less and less attention to him, and more to Kyle. Only a few hours earlier, the class worked on an assignment that took a group of three to accomplish. Being the only chipmunks in the class, Theodore, Eleanor, and Kyle were put into a group together. Being distracted by his task, Theodore had paid no attention to the chipmunk that was flirting with his girlfriend. That's when it happened. As Theodore turned around to speak to his counterpart, he came face to face with his worst nightmare. There was Eleanor, her lips in full contact with Kyle's. And worst of all, a smile on her face. The two didn't speak for the remainder of the class. Unfortunately, they couldn't avoid one another.

"...I was so hurt." Theodore finished. "I've known Eleanor for years Alvin and we're barely holding hands and then she goes makes out with some guy she's only known for three weeks."

"Ouch." Alvin sighed as he let the story sink in.

"I thought she was the one for me." Theodore began crying again.

"Look little bro," Alvin began hugging his baby brother again. "There's a lot of fish in the sea. You can't just stick with your first catch. And sometimes you'll reel in a piranha that's only going to bite you in the ass. I'm sorry to say it, but I think Eleanor is that piranha."

"But I still love her..." Theodore trailed as he looked down.

"I don't think she loves you." Alvin responded. "If you go back to her, she's just going do it again and again and again. Now I don't have anything against El, but she's not going to change if you get together again and she's only going to keep biting you until she picks you clean to the bone. And I don't want to see you to get hurt anymore Teddy."

Theodore gave a small smile. While Alvin was irresponsible, pig-headed, and a little immature, one of his better qualities was emotional support. One would expect Simon to be the brother that consoled the youngest, when in fact it was Alvin that Theodore would rather open up to. Theodore knew if he had a problem, he could talk to Alvin about it. If he had a nightmare and Dave's room was closed, he would sleep with Alvin in his bed. Sure Alvin picked on him a bit, but it was no different than how he picked on Simon. That was just how older brothers were with their little siblings.

"Thanks Alvin." Theodore wiped his last tear away and smiled. "I think I'm going to be ok."

"That's all I want Teddy." Alvin smiled back as he stood, ruffling his little brother's hair and heading out of the room. "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll reel in that perfect fish soon enough."

Theodore giggled as he laid back down. As he thought about, he and Alvin were always close. Unlike him and Simon, Alvin never bickered or fought with Theodore. Quite the opposite, Alvin and Theodore had always had a very close brotherhood. Today, Alvin had been to the stitch to the wound Eleanor left. And that made the green-clad chipmunk smile.

Theodore soon sat up, pulled out a drawing pad from his drawer and began doodling. This was something he did whenever he needed to vent any sort of emotions. He wasn't exactly the next Michael Angelo, but he was a very good and detailed artist. His mind drifted as he drew, not paying attention to what he was putting on the paper. He began thinking about Alvin again.

Ever since they were kids, Theodore always saw Alvin as his role model. Take away his many personality flaws, and you'll find a very honorable munk. Alvin was fearless, confident, and bold. In fact, Theodore had to admit his older brother was pretty handsome too. His beautiful amber eyes, his lean body structure, his dark brown fur... Theodore snapped out of his trance just before his thoughts wandered to where he knew they would go. He gasped in horror as he looked at his drawing and cursed his detail. He had created a half-body image from the waist up of his brother, without his clothing and hearts surrounding him. He couldn't have drawn like that absent minded.

Theodore slammed the book shut and stuffed it back into his drawer. He could feel himself blush a crimson red as he thought on the sketch. There had to be something truly wrong with him. He couldn't be developing a crush on his big brother. No, it was sick, perverse, and down right wrong on all levels. Alvin was his brother, nothing more and nothing less. Besides, Alvin was with Brittany now right? They couldn't be together anyway.

The chubby chipmunk threw the pillow over his head and screamed with all of his might. He knew he shouldn't be having these thoughts about his brother, but his heart could've cared much less. Alvin had become much more than just the stitch to Theodore's wounded heart. He was the very thing that was healing it. Theodore's mind was conflicting with itself. It was bad enough to have a crush on another male, but his brother? He knew this would ruin his relationship with the rest of his family, Alvin for obvious reasons first of all. He also knew Brittany was a very vocal homophobe, though not because of any religious belief, and would instantly turn on him. Theodore was blank on where Simon, Dave, and the other Chipettes would stand. Would they turn on him too? His own family?

What the hell am I going to do?
