Brittany's POV
"I'm not harassing her. I'M BEING NICE. There's a difference. It's not surprising that you don't see that though," Alvin responded sarcastically.
My anger lessened slightly, and I chuckled at his stupidity.
"I don't recall kind people offering to hug people naked. That's something a pervert would do."
"You're not a complete saint either. Kind people— not even, NORMAL people don't threaten to shoot other people!" Alvin hissed.
"Being kind or 'normal' was never my intention", I hollered.
"Then what was your god damn intention?!" Alvin questioned.
"PROTECTING MY SISTERS! FROM THE MOMENT I WAS POPPED OUT OF MY MOTHER'S—"
"Brittany. You should calm down," Simon said sternly.
"Don't tell me what to do glasses!" I yelled in response.
"Britt, it's okay. You can stop. I'll be fine", my younger bespectacled sister assured.
I rolled my eyes and sighed in annoyance.
"Fine. I hope Chuckie here learned from this little experience."
I sprinted away from the others. They already were familiar with the school, so they could get there without me. I needed a break from Chuc— I mean Alvin, otherwise I was going to start balding prematurely.
Alvin's POV
Chuckie? Is that really the best she can do? I mean there is like no resemblance. Well besides the fact we're around the same size, but that's about it.
"So Jeanette what class do you have first period?" I asked with a smirk.
"Um I-I have Geometry with Ms. Fudge."
"What a coincidence, so do I", I said showing her my schedule much to her dismay.
"Oh, well I'll see you in class then", she said with a small smile.
"Guys we're at school", Eleanor pointed out.
"Bye everyone I'm going to go hang out with my people", I shouted while sprinting away.
"If it isn't the midget himself", a voice from behind me said.
I stopped, then turned around. The voice belonged to no other than Ryan Edwards. Right next to him were his partners in crime, Xander and Jordan. It seemed like they got taller since the last time I saw them.
"Am I a midget Ryan? Am I? Or are you just a giant."
"We actually haven't grew at all this summer", he said in a somewhat disappointed tone.
"Neither have I, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm average height for a chipmunk", I responded.
"I guess, but that doesn't change the fact that everybody in this school towers over you your brothers, and your little girlfriends", Xander mocked.
"I guess", I admitted in annoyance that he was right.
"So what class do you have first period?" Ryan asked changing the subject.
"I have geometry", I groaned. "What about you guys?"
Ryan scoffed then snickered. "We haven't even looked at our schedules yet."
"What? Why not?" I asked.
"Because none of the cool people ever go to their first period. Didn't you know that?" Jordan asked bluntly.
"If you never go to your first period, then how do you pass the class?" I asked still skeptical.
"Wow Alvin that's lame. I didn't think you cared about your precious education that much. I guess your brother is really starting to rub off on you", Ryan mocked.
I glared daggers at Ryan and his snickering friends.
"It's not like I enjoy going to class, but it's still important!" I yelled.
"Whatever", Ryan started. "The three of us are going to go have some fun. You're always welcomed to join us… unless you're too much of a pussy to come."
"Fine. I'll go with you guys."
"Great we'll be back before second period", Ryan said with a smirk.
Simon's POV
I was halfway to my art class. I sighed and glared at the ground. I was doing what I usually do for my first class of the day, show up early. However, this wasn't my ordinary first class of the day. I never wanted to take art class. There is nothing complex for me to learn or challenge myself with. I never liked to draw either. No matter how hard I tried, my artwork never came out nice. Unfortunately there was no getting out of this. My counselor informed me that I needed this class to graduate. The only thing left to do was to get this class over with, and to make a good impression on the art teacher Mrs. Potter.
I finally got to the classroom. The door was shut, and possibly locked. I looked at the windows surrounding the classroom. The classroom lights were on, so it was possible the teacher was in the room. With all the strength I had, I pounded both of my tiny fists on the hard metal door. Several seconds later a middle-aged lady opened the door. She looked straight forward with a confused expression.
"Good morning Ma'am. I'm Simon— Oh right, I'm down here sorry."
"Oh hello", Mrs. Potter said with a smile. "You're here early. Most of my students stopped showing up early years ago."
"That's unfortunate", I said in response.
"It kind of is. Come on in. Since you're the first one here you can pick your seat. Class will begin in five minutes."
"Okay. Thank you very much ma'am", I said running to the front row seat closest to the door.
That seat was the best of both worlds. In that seat I could see the board and hear the lectures the best, but leave to my next class quickly at the same time. Five minutes later other sophomores came pouring into the room. They all went for the seats in the back or middle. Eventually, some of the students who came in later filled in the front row seats except for the one right next to me. That irritated me a little bit. Am I really that bad?
"Alright class, it looks like everyon—"
"WAIT I'M HERE!" Brittany shouted out of breath, stopping Mrs. Potter from closing the door.
What? She has this class too? She walked in with a small Starbucks coffee, which was still large for a chipmunk. I rolled my eyes. I wonder how much trouble she went through just to carry it here.
"Oh hello. Please try to make it to class on time. Please take your seat", Mrs. Potter said politely yet firmly.
"I'm sorry it won't happen again", the feminine chipette responded while placing her stuff on the seat next to mine.
"Okay I have been teaching art for many years. Anyone can be an artist. There are many different forms of art, and many methods on how to create it. For the majority of the year your work will be done based on how I tell you to do it. However, I'm going to give you a partner based assignment. In that assignment you and your partner are going to agree on how you are going to style your assigned object. This project is due at the end of the year. I will pick your partners."
After that last statement almost everybody groaned. I didn't really blame them. Their screwed if they get paired with a lazy partner. I really hope I don't get paired with Brittany. It's not that she's "lazy", it's just that she's not very punctual, and she is difficult to get along with. We'll probably spend more time arguing than actually working on the project.
"Simon. You will be working with Brittany."
Just my luck…
Alvin's POV
I was currently at a candy store called "The Sweet Sale Shop". Ryan, Xander, and Jordan had just finished explaining their plan to me. It made me feel really uncomfortable. The plan involved me distracting the cashier, who was also the manager, while they filled up bags of candy and made their get away. The manager was old fashioned so he didn't have any video cameras. I really did not want to go through with this plan. Yes I'm a trouble-maker, jerk, and narcissist, but I never stole anything before.
"Are you ready to go through with this", Ryan asked.
"Yeah", I said uncertain.
"Great you should start stripping", Ryan said bluntly.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!" I screamed feeling disgusted and violated.
I know I said I would do it earlier, but I was joking. I do wear a shirt under my sweater.
Ryan rolled his eyes. "Relax fuck boy. I'm not into naked animals. The reason you need to strip is because if you do, you'll make a more believable feral animal. Besides, if he recognized you as the chipmunk celebrity, this incident will end up on the news, and your reputation will be ruined."
I groaned loudly. How can someone so stupid and uneducated be so smart. I swallowed hard and looked at the ground. This was it. I slowly lifted my sweater and shirt over my head, pulled them off , then tossed them to Xander, who simply stuffed them in his pocket.
I had to get in through the window. It would be too obvious if I went in through the door. Jordan lifted me up in his chubby hand, and placed me onto the edge of where the window was. From the opened window I leaped onto one of the tables. Then I began to hiss in the most animalistic way I was capable of.
"OH MY GOD!" The cashier screamed.
"He immediately grabbed his broom, and started to chase me. He took several swings at me, but I was able to dodge them. I led him to the storage room, when I looked back I saw Ryan, Xander, and Jordan filling up plastic bags with candy.
As I continued jumping on boxes and avoiding attacks, I noticed a pattern in the cashier's swings. He wasn't swinging his broom hard enough to kill me. It was as if he was trying to chase me to the exit. As likely as that was, I couldn't take the chance of that not being true. While I was running I started to look for something to throw at him. My legs were starting to tire out. Luckily at the highest stacked box there was a large flyer. I jumped from box to box until I finally got to the top, and was out of my pursuer's reach.
"GET DOWN HERE YOU DIGUSTING PEST!"
After that statement I saw him about to swing his broom hard, and this time he wasn't aiming for me. Shit. He was aiming for the stack of boxes I was on. Right before he caused a small avalanche , I leaped from the highest box and threw the flyer in the elderly man's face. Boxes started to block his path, but luckily did not injure him. I landed on all fours. I ran back to the main room of the store. I jumped on a chair, then the top of a table, and from there I jumped out the window I came in from.
I was extremely out of breath, but I managed to jog to Ryan, Xander, and Jordan who were across the street. Luckily there were no cars, so I wasn't injured when I jaywalked. Once I caught up to them Ryan tossed a bag of candy right next to me, then he tossed me a red gummy bear. I caught it, but instead of immediately eating it, I just stared at it.
"Is there a problem?" Ryan asked.
"No", I said while placing the gummy bear in my mouth.
Author's note: Hey guys. I read all the comments. Thank you so much for the sweet comments and feedback. I really appreciate it. Guys I need to make a couple things clear. The endgames of this story are Brimon, Alvinette, and Theonore. I had my heart set on that for a long time. However, in the future I'll make stories with the original pairings. The second thing I needed to tell you was I'm sorry for the obvious typos in the summary and in the first chapter. I've been trying to edit them, but I'm still new here and the site has been giving me a hard time. Anyways thanks again and until next time.
