This part of the story is mostly about Simon and Jeanette (shrieks and giggles!) lol I hope you enjoy it.
*Before Brittany called Jeanette*
Jeanette checked her sisters bedroom. Eleanor was fast asleep in her room, but Brittany was not in her bedroom. Jeanette went downstairs and saw that her sister was not down there either. She looked out the window, half expecting her sister to be passed out on the lawn, but she wasn't there either.
'Maybe she just slept over at Alvin's house' she thought to herself.
She fixed herself a bowl of cereal, and then turned on the living room t.v. She sat on the couch, and put on the news, and found out where her sister was.
"Alvin Seville from "The Chipmunks" and Brittany Miller from "The Chipettes" were arrested last night in Los Angeles, California for public intoxication and disorderly conduct. The two were seen walking the streets, clearly drunk, and holding each other up. Bail is set for $3,500 each."
A picture of their mug shots popped up on the screen before cutting to commercial.
Jeanette couldn't help but to laugh. Then she put down her food, turned off the t.v. and dialed Simon's number. He picked up after the fourth ring.
"Hello?"
"Hi, Simon,"
"Oh, hi, Jeanette."
"Have you seen the news?"
"No, but is my brother at your house? I can't find him,"
"Uhhh, the news may be your answer to that question,"
"Oh, god. Hold on,"
She heard him put the phone down. After a minute he came back.
"They didn't," was all he could say.
"They did," Jeanette said, holding back laughter.
"Now what?"
"I guess we have to bail them out. What more could we do?"
"We could leave them there, at least they'd never touch alcohol again."
Jeanette couldn't hold back her laughter anymore, and started hysterical laughing. After hearing the sound of her laughter, Simon joined in on the laughing. After a few minutes, they finally stopped laughing.
"In all seriousness, how are we supposed to get $7,000 in the next few days? You know Dave is still holding all of our money. And this just so happens to be his 'relaxation week',"
"Ugh, I know. But we can't leave them there. It will look bad on our behalf,"
"Hmmm...Hold on, I'm getting another call. Actually, I don't recognize the phone number, so I'll call you back, bye"
"Bye,"
Jeanette clicked over the phone.
"Hello?"
"Jeanette?"
"Brittany?"
"Um, yeah, it's me. Well, this is awkward, but I'm in jail and I need you to bail me out."
"Oh, I knew you were in jail,"
"You did? How?"
"It's all over the news,"
"Ughh, my life is ruined."
"No it's not," Jeanette tried to reassure her.
"Well, will you bail me out?"
"I wish I could..."
"You can't?"
"Well, Dave is holding most of our money, and he's away this week, remember?"
"Oh, right. He'll be mad at us,"
"He probably will. I wish I could bail you out but I don't have enough money to bail you both out. I'll call the others and see if we can get enough money together. But if not, Dave will be back next week."
Brittany groaned.
"I have to say, that when I woke up this morning, and you weren't in your room, I got worried. But then I went downstairs, and turned on the tv. And your mugshots on the screen made me realize what happened to you. Your mugshot did make me laugh though." Jeanette chuckled to herself.
"Ugh, I know, I look like a train wreck,"
"Jeanette, I could talk to you all day, but I have to go,"
"Alright, I'll try my hardest to bail you out before Dave gets home,"
"Thank you, Jeanette,"
"Bye,"
"Bye," and then the line went dead.
Jeanette quickly called Simon back.
"Well?" he asked.
"It was Brittany,"
"And?"
"They're in jail,"
Simon laughed "I know that!"
Jeanette giggled "They want us to bail them out."
"Just as I expected,"
"Well now what?"
"I have no idea," Jeanette said, sighing.
"Well, what's the rush? We don't have the money right now. We can try to get in contact with Dave tonight."
"True. I guess we'll see what happens."
"So. Do you want to hang out later?"
"Sure," Jeanette said, smiling.
"Do you want to come here?"
"Sounds good to me,"
"Is 5 o'clock good?"
"Perfect,"
"See you later,"
"Bye,"
Jeanette hang up the phone. Just then Eleanor walked into the living room, and saw Jeanette sitting on the couch.
"Hey, where's Brittany?" she asked, groggily.
Jeanette turned the t.v. back on, and pointed to it. It was a lot easier than explaining the whole predicament.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I was thinking about it all day and couldn't wait to put it to words. Thanks for reading =D
