Hi guys! We meet again , well , this is the second chapter, same as the last one, please tell me how I did on this chapter. (This is still a introduction.) By the way, I read some story and there's actually disclaimer( o.0 ), well, just in case, the characters doesn't belong to me but the plot and any extra characters are mine.

I Need Your Skills

As the Sevilles walked down to the house of Millers, they continued their conversation.

"As a conclusion, you are finding yourself a girlfriend, right?" Alvin repeated again.

"I just… don't know." Theodore sighed sadly, "And the worst part is, Dave is forcing me to find one!" Theodore cried out in despair.

"Just let everything go smoothly and naturally, okay?" Simon hold on to Theodore's shoulders and look him dead in the eyes, "That's how I got my girlfriend anyway."

"No way, man." Alvin persisted, "I actually have to asked the girl out! You have to asked a girl out sooner or later, its your decision."

"I guess so…" Theodore said, slightly pouting in sadness.

"Seriously, how you get a girlfriend without asking her out? You must have a kind of love potion, right?" Alvin whispered to Simon. Simon nudged the waist of Alvin, but slightly too hard, causing Alvin to flinch in a sudden pain.

At that precise moment, the 3 chipmunks reached the Millers house and two figures were standing in front of the porch. From far away, They could only see a pink blob and a purple one.

Spontaneously, Simon speed up and collided with the purple figure, They put their hand around each others and hugged in happiness.

"I missed you." Simon said slowly as he smelled the same scent of his girlfriend, and how her brown silk hair ran in his finger, smooth like baby skin.

"Me too." Jeanette replied, she was wearing a normal purple sweater and a short skirt, a few enhancement to emphasize her beauty as her pink spectacles rested just above the bridge of her nose.

Theodore just sighed at the sweetness of the scene, whimpering in his heart for he could never find a girlfriend and lose himself in this kind of beautiful moment.

"Ew, I hate nerd's love." Alvin made a choking sound at it, pretending to be vomiting over it. Theodore rolled his eyes upwards, slightly annoyed that how his brother could be so cruel.

Unknowingly, Alvin's eyes meet another blue ones. Brittany never said anything but turned her head away, refusing to look at the red-clad chipmunk.

"Eleanor, the boys're here." Miss Miller's voice rang from the internal part of house, followed by a tiny squeal and sounds of footsteps.

From the corner of his eyes, Theodore saw the same blonde girl came out from the door which he meet since he was just ten. Her hair was the same , the typical pigtails with ribbons tied around it. Eleanor was wearing a simple T-shirt , but with some lace around the top of it and a short spring green skirt.

"Alvin!" Eleanor squeaked in excitement, as she threw her arm around Alvin's neck and nuzzled at his neck.

Since a few months ago, Alvin and Eleanor became a couple, Brittany never admits but Theodore knew she was hurt from it. Frankly, Theodore has a crush on her when they're ten. But he gotten over it fairly quick, he told himself that actually this world has many kind of chipettes and soon he will stumble across his true love. However, since that day, Theodore doesn't have any feelings towards Eleanor anymore. In addition, they grew distant, even their friendship are just hanging on a thread, they rarely talk anymore.

"Hey, Eleanor." Alvin replied unenthusiastically as if he was annoyed, he grabbed both of her arms and put it down. She's a bit way cheerful…

Eleanor was slightly confused but obeyed him anyway, she let out a tiny sigh, nobody heard but only Theodore.

"As much as I hate the school, we need to get to it quick, and fast." Alvin insisted everyone, "Let's get the daily introduction cut away and off to the school."

"If you can actually drive now, we would be there right now." Brittany stated non-chalantly.

"Hey woman, having my age too young is so not my fault." Alvin snapped at her.

"At least you could called a cab to fetch us, you idiot!"

"At this kind of freezing morning? You're crazy!"

"Guys, we shouldn't really be arguing right now." Eleanor tried to stop them by using her words, but ultimately, it failed.

"Scared of a little weather and chickening out?" Brittany teased as she pinched the tip of Alvin's nose.

"You're really getting on my nerves now." Alvin growled in a dark deep voice, instilled with anger.

"So what? You just screwed my perfect day!" Brittany yelled slightly at his direction while poking her index finger on the surface of Alvin's chest.

Before anything could get more worse, Theodore quickly stepped forward and grabbed Brittany's wrist.

"Brittany," Theodore started, "Its useless wasting time on Alvin." Theodore stated in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Yeah, but even looking at his face, I'm going to lose my sanity!" Brittany scoffed at Theodore, but the anger are set on Alvin.

"How about we leave right now, seeing him in detention would be a pleasure for you, right?" Theodore suggested. Dave did asked me to find a girlfriend which happens to be the crazed and furious cheerleader, Theodore thought as he rolled his eyes mentally. Might as well starting from right now.

When Brittany looked at him , her ironic flaming but icy-blue eyes could kill Theodore on the spot. Theodore tried to resist from flinching when she gave him the look. Instead , he put on his totally innocent face and slightly fluttering his eyelashes in a cute way.

"Please?" Theodore pleaded and pouted at her, tugging at her sleeves. I really hope this will work. Theodore cringed in his mind, If not, He immediately shook with fear as he thought, She'll stab me to dead with her high heels!

Brittany was silent for alwhile. After that, Brittany just gave him a weak smile and sighed so loud that everyone could heard it. She stopped Theodore's fingers from tugging her sleeves and stared into his eyes.

"Ok…" Brittany said softly, Eleanor was utterly shocked at this point as her thought repeated itself in her mind. How in the world Theodore did that? "But only because your little brother says so!" Brittany turned her head at Alvin and sneered.

Alvin opened his mouth but nothing came out, he was panting from all the shouting he just did. He took a deep breath and released it, making himself calmer.

"Theodore, my little teddy." Alvin called as he shook his head in defeat.

Theodore looked at him sympathetically and shrugged, telling him he was sorry.

"Even you're fourteen…" Alvin stand on another side of Theodore and put a palm on his shoulder as he continued, "You never change, you're still sweetest and kindest guy I ever meet." Alvin coulden't help but felt lucky to him as his brother, he was grateful that today there won't be any arguing again.

"Anyway, lets just go to the school, Okay?" Theodore offered Brittany once again. Come on, just listen to me and get to the school!

"Sure." Brittany answered, grinning at him for stopping the confrontation that just happened. She quickly put the fighting scene behind and continued walking, followed by Alvin who just slid his hands into his pockets without any emotion. Theodore smiled behind them. Finally, Theodore bit his lips in happyness. It means I still have a chance on hitting her!

"Nice." Simon commented on Theodore, "We could always count on you to stop any fighting between those…" Simon tapped his chin twice, searching for a suitable word, "Petulant Wags."

Before Theodore began to ask him, Jeanette joined in the conversation, "It means impatient jokers." Jeanette explained to him before giggled at Simon's humor, every girl in the school always says that Simon is boring, but not to her. Sometimes, Simon never even attempts to make Jeanette laughs, but their relationship made Jeanette to be a laughter. Particularly, she only laughs at Simon's jokes.

Jeanette and Simon's fingers automatically intwined as they followed behind Alvin and Brittany while they started to talk about school works, science fiction and some jokes which only they could understand.

Theodore looked before the scene revealed before his eyes, and kinda worried that this will be happening between himself and Brittany once everything worked out. Geez, not that I don't like Brittany, but this is too weird. Soon there will be kissing, marriage and baby, or even babies! Theodore shuddered at the last word. Just for Dave, Ok? Dave…Theodore gulped the mind shredding thoughts and continued walking.

Eleanor was slapped mentally as her jaw dropped wide open, How come Brittany always listens to Theodore but not me, hold on… Eleanor walked silently behind Theodore as she squeezed her brain juice, desperate to think of a plan, From the way how Theodore acts, maybe I could… A happy smile slowly formed on Eleanor's face as she approached Theodore from behind.

"Hey, Theodore." Eleanor greeted him happily as she walked beside Theodore.

Theodore was confused as he raised one of his eyebrows, She never greet me automatically, is she up to something? "Hey, Eleanor." Theodore replied casually, "Long time no see." Theodore had to admit, it was nice to listen to her sound again after a long time.

"Yeah, we never talked after…" Eleanor was deep in thought as she searched anything related in her mind, "I'm not sure, I guess we just grew apart?" Eleanor suggested optimistically.

Theodore simply shrugged. "Maybe."

"Well, actually I was wondering…" Eleanor fiddled her fingers around nervously as her sentence trailed off.

"About what?" Theodore tilted his head aside as he was really pointless now. He wasn't sure why if Eleanor has a question, he would needed to answer it. Isn't this Simon's job?

"How do you always make Brittany listen to you?" Eleanor quickly blurted out everything in a fast motion.

Theodore blinked, What? "What do you mean by that?"

"Let me see…" Right now, both of them are just standing there, facing each other , completely forgetting about school. "Everytime I tried to convince or asking her for something, she'll always blow me away as if I was nothing." Eleanor told Theodore as she sighed in defeat.

"I'm…not sure." Theodore thinked for a minute, "Why would you want to….um…command her?" Theodore asked anxiously, he can't really find a suitable word for it.

"Not command!" Eleanor slightly yelled at him in a negative way, "Its just that…"

Theodore gave her a smile and put a comforting arm around her shoulder, "Just what? Something is wrong or haywired?" Theodore assumed.

"Its Alvin."

If Theodore wasn't confused right now, he would be mindless. "What's wrong with Alvin?" He was wondering himself why would Eleanor saying Alvin has a problem, or even if Alvin is the problem.

"These day, He kinda always giving me the 'silent treatment' and acting so distantly towards me." Eleanor explained to Theodore as she made hand gestures.

"Maybe he's just having stress or worrying about the next week's soccer competition?"

"Impossible, in the team, I'm first and he's the second best. Why would he has to worry about it?"

"If that is not the problem, then I have something to do with that because…?" Theodore asked as he pulled the tone of his last word.

"Because I want to learn how to make him listen to me." She simply told him.

"I thought you're his girlfriend, not commando." Theodore stated.

Eleanor slapped Theodore's hand lightly as she take that as a sarcastic comment. "I know, I just want him to pay more attention to me."

Theodore rubbed his arm alwhile where Eleanor just slapped before answering her, "Then you should find Brittany, learn how to uh… flirt and stuff like that." Theodore said open-mindedly.

Eleanor shook her head, "If I ever become like Brittany," She chuckled dryly, "Alvin and I will be always getting into fights." Eleanor simply reasoned.

"You do have a point there."

"So," Eleanor grabbed his paw in both of her arms and asked, "Are you going to help me in this serious love problem?" She gave him a pouting look.

"You mean by commanding Alvin?" Theodore asked again.

"No," Eleanor look down to her shoes, "But by teaching me the way how you act towards Brittany." She blushed and use her right shoe to fiddle her left one. "You know, making her to pay more attention to yourself and acting romantic towards her."

"Hold on, sunshine." Theodore held up both of his hand defensively and quickly took a step back away from Eleanor, "I am so not acting romantic with…" Theodore shuddered for the second time in that day. "Brittany."

Eleanor laughed and giggled at his comment, "Just teach me how to do it, ok?"

"And now you want me to act 'romantic' with you?" Theodore asked as his eyes widened and his eyebrows were raised.

"Not really," Eleanor smiled deviously with a pinch of slyness as she put both of her hand on her hips, "Are you afraid to be seen 'romantic' with me?" She teased.

"Is that a trick question? Of course I am!" Theodore exclaimed. "I'll be beaten to a flattening pie if Alvin sees it! And a big and fresh one!" Theodore vociferated in a debating manner.

"Well, I been trying to say we could do that after school, when we're alone."

"Eleanor," Theodore said and looked at her for a minute, "We're never alone."

"We will." She insisted. Please? I'm desperate here!

"You have two siblings and I have two siblings which are living in neighbourhood and actually two of them are dating right now, excluding Alvin who was dating with you." Theodore showed his 4 fingers as he continued, "Simon and Jeanette are always meeting each other, they will be…ubiquitous!"

"Um, you been hanging around Simon too much." Eleanor stated more like a question.

Theodore rolled his eyes, but in a playful manner. "It means they will be everywhere, we can't be 'romantic' without been seeing!"

"I think as long as Alvin is not there, we'll be just fine." Eleanor explained, "Our other siblings can understand this classes you're giving me."

"So now I'm your tutor on," Before Theodore say the next word, he tried to avoid the word 'romantic', "Sweet and kindness?"

"Nope."

"Uh…" Theodore stared at her.

Eleanor smirked at him, "Its called 'Flirting'." She giggled and ran to the school as their conversation took too long, if they don't actually run now, they will be late.

"What?" Theodore screamed behind her, "Eleanor? Eleanor!" Theodore continued to call her as she continued to giggle. As Theodore ran just beside her, he can't help but rolled his eyes and smiled to himself, That means I have a reason for not finding a girlfriend right now, Theodore smiled to himself. A tutoring to do! Wish Dave could understand this, especially Alvin if he ever finds out.

Yeah! Chapter 2 is finished! How is it? Is it good or worse than the first one? Erm, ChipmunkfanNo.1 ? I know Eleanor is overweight, but I don't consider Theodore to think the idea of having Eleanor as his girlfriend is disgusting, since Theodore isn't talking about her in the last chapter. Dave isn't pressuring Theodore either, he's just suggesting, I wanted to show Theodore's sensitive and overconcern side as he exaggerated what Dave told him, you do understand from my view, right?

Please read and review, give me your opinions and comments! Just to tell you guys though, I don't really feel 'okay' with heavy cursing, much of it will be just… light or childish curse.
