Chapter 4 – Banana Cream Pie
Once Saturday finally came every one, or every chipmunk was running on very short patience before the night's events. The chipmunks had made reservations at the best restaurant in town, and they were supposed to meet the chipettes there at 6 o'clock.
By 2 in the afternoon, Theodore had already made half a dozen batches of cupcakes and a couple banana loafs. It was clear he was anxious for tonight, he had been up since 5 that morning and had showered twice and occupied the kitchen for the rest of the day. Simon on the other hand was only up at 7 and he had only showered once since he woke up because he was slightly more confident about the night's festivities. But not confident enough because once he was finished getting ready he went out to the shed in the backyard to do some extra-curricular experiments until they had to leave.
Then there was Alvin who thought he was 'awesome' just as he was so he had gotten up only 2 hours ago at noon and was presently in front of his laptop talking on MSN to all of his 'friends'.
'Hey, Theo, you wanna throw me one of those cupcakes, I never got breakfast yet!' Alvin yelled to the kitchen, not even looking up from the computer screen.
'Uhm, sure thing Alvin, one second I'll be right there I just have to finish frosting this chocolate cake.' Theodore replied.
At the mention of cake Alvin looked up and went over to the kitchen.
'On second thought I'm going to go out of my way to come and get some cake instead.' Alvin said getting a plate from the cupboard.
'Okay, but I thought you might like the toaster waffles in the toaster more, I just put them down for you.' Theodore, who was always thinking of others said. He also wanted the cake for later.
'OUU! MY FAVORITE! Okay, I'll wait.' Alvin said, taking a seat at the kitchen table.
'So, Theo,' Alvin began, not quite knowing how to ask his brother this; 'I was wondering if you were going to bring the girls anything tonight?' he finished.
'Uhm, well, I wasn't sure about it, but I thought I would bring them each a box of chocolate. I know Simon is bringing them some of the flowers from Dave's garden, he said that girls like that kind of thing.' Theodore replied not looking at his brother.
'Okay, well I don't think I should bring anything then, since you guys covered that.' Alvin said spinning the fork he was holding in his hands.
'Well it's up to you, Alvin.' Theodore said.
Alvin was actually a bit nervous for tonight, not that he would admit it to anyone, but he wasn't sure what to expect from the chipettes. Last night, when his brothers went o bed he made his way over to the computer and did some research on the chipettes, and he found there story, pictures and a thirty second clip from one of their songs. What he found was shocking as to what he had expected. He knew who each of them was and that there song was actually GOOD. Not as good as me Si and Theo, but they were definitely there, he thought. And they were actually quite good looking, well at least he thought so about the lead singer, Brittany was it? Again, not that he would ever let his brothers know or her. He was Alvin Seville for gosh sakes!
'Alvin, they just popped! Alvin? ALVIIIIIINNNNNNN! Hello?' Theodore pulled his brother out of his day dream.
'Oh? What? Okay, thanks Theo.' Alvin said taking the toaster waffles from the toaster.
Once he was finished and he had convinced his younger brother to go do something else besides bake all day, Alvin headed upstairs to go take a well deserved shower.
Dave is going to be here at 5 so we can drive over to the restaurant and then he's going to leave us there and go work on the CD, and then he's picking us up at 9. Just enough time to analyze the competition. Alvin thought while he was getting ready to go shower.

Meanwhile over at the chipettes house, Brittany could not decide on what to wear. She was set between a light pink dress what went just above her knees and a read dress that was cut at the waist to form the bottom half that was all criss-crossed up to her knees as well.
'Jean!! Ellie!! I NEED YOU GUYS HERE RIGHT NOW!!!' Brittany yelled out her bedroom door.
In no time the other two girls were in her room and asking what that was about.
'Well I can't choose which one to wear tonight… and there are only 2 and a half hours until we have to leave for tonight!' Brittany exclaimed over dramatically.
'Well Britt, I'm wearing that dark green skirt and matching top we bought last weekend.' Eleanor replied trying to coax her older sister into calming down.
'Yeah, and I'm wearing a new blue shirt, and that cute purple skirt you bought me for my birthday last month.' Jeanette said showing her sister what she already had on.
'Well, I don't care what you guys are wearing! I need to know what looks best on me! I know they both look great, but which one is best suited with my shoes!' Brittany cried,
Jeanette and Eleanor exchanged sympathetic looks and told their older sister that they liked the pink one the best.
'UGH! You two don't know anything! The red one is clearly the better choice!' Brittany said lifting up the red dress and going to the bathroom to change.
'Sometimes I could just…' Eleanor started.
'Don't Ellie, she's not worth it, and you know how she can get.' Jeanette told her sister on their way out of Brittany's room.
In the bathroom, Brittany was admiring how great the dress looked with her shoes, and got to thinking about tonight. I hope everyone likes it, especially Alvin… WHAT! I cannot believe I just said that! No way, nuh uh. But I did hear that red was his favorite color… UGH! Brittany c'mon snap out of it, you haven't even met him yet, and what guy won't like me! She thought to herself.
Pretty soon it was time for the chipettes to head out to the restaurant and they all looked great. Brittany did her sisters make-up and her own, of course and they were all pumped.

Back at the chipmunks, Theodore and Simon were at the door of their bedroom, eyes following their older brother moving around the room in a whirlwind.
'You know, Alvin, if you had gotten ready earlier you might have realized your cap is downstairs, and that your red tie is on the bed.' Simon said rolling his eyes at his older brother who stopped in the middle of the room.
'You mean to tell me that you two have been standing there, NOT HELPING ME, and you knew where everything was?!' Alvin said advancing on his brother.
'Yes I did, and that's because its now 5 o'clock and Dave is downstairs and your still not ready, what have you been doing all day?' Simon inquired.
'Important things, none of your business, but at least I wasn't shut off from everyone all day.' Alvin shot back. He clearly knew that all he had done all day was think about tonight as well, but he was not loosing this fight, Alvin never lost.
'Well, seeing as you now know where everything is, Theodore and I shall be waiting downstairs with Dave.' Simon said, giving up. Clearly the last remark was something he did not want to address at the moment.
Once the boys were all ready to go, they made there way to the restaurant with Dave.
At the same time the chipettes had just finished getting ready, with only minor incidences from Brittany through out the day, but by 5 o'clock they all managed to look great for the night. All wearing beautiful new clothes they had just purchased, or in Brittany's case, things she bought the day before.

Once all six of them for to the restaurant they easily found each other and were soon seated at a reserved table in the back of the restaurant. All was silent for a couple minutes and it got really awkward, but then brave Eleanor asked;
'So Theodore, I hear you and your brothers were taken in by Dave last year and that for some time you were managed by Ian. Did you know he's our manager now?' She said looking at Theodore. By the time she had finished saying this, all of the others were starring at her.
Then Alvin spoke; 'Yea, Ian was our manager but he wasn't right for the job. You see he's only an amateur and we needed someone who really understood our awesome music.' He finished.
This time it was Brittany who spoke to Alvin;
'So you're saying that he wasn't good enough for you guys but he's perfect for us? ARE YOU CALLING ME, I mean me and my sisters, AMATEURS!!??' Brittany said while her face was approaching Alvin's.
'Well maybe I am, we have been doing this a lot longer than you three have. We already have our names on the Hollywood walk of fame.' Alvin said approaching his face as well.
The other four chipmunks were so swept away by their sibling's sudden distain for one another they just sat there with their mouths wide open.
'Is that so?' Brittany said, still getting closer.
'Yea, that's so!' Alvin said closing the distance between them and making their noses touch. They glared at each other for a few more seconds, only to be disturbed by a tall waiter that approached their table.
'Do you guys know what you want yet?' He asked politely. Immediately Alvin and Brittany took their seats again and the other four exchanged a quite look of understanding and then they placed their orders.
The restaurant proved to be very busy so they had to wait a while for their food, and in the mean time they got to talking, since the events with Alvin and Brittany the 'ice' seemed to be broken and it was easy street. Why, Simon and Theodore even presented each of the girls with the flowers and chocolates. Brittany did not particularly want either of them, so the flowers went to Jeannette and the chocolates went to Eleanor.
Soon enough Jeanette and Simon were in a heated discussion about something to do with outer-space and they moved their chairs a little closer to each other so they didn't have to raise their voices. It proved they both had a lot in common and every now and then Simon made Jeannette blush when he complimented her when she made a good point in their discussion. I wonder if she would want to come over for a study party, or just to watch a movie… Simon thought.
Eleanor and Theodore were talking about what they had ordered and how they had many a time tried to make the same thing, but it had never been like the one here. They soon found out they had mostly the same talents and fears, and were highly similar, and not just with their favorite color. Before the dinner arrived Eleanor gave Theodore her e-mail in hopes that he would invite her over to maybe cook something up one day. He accepted it with great enthusiasm. Wow, I really like him, I think me and him could end up being really good friends one day, she thought to herself.
And then there were Alvin and Brittany who proved to be the most similar in the entire group. They were both headstrong and very stubborn and argued about everything. Mostly which of them was better at something or other, they would not however admit that they had so much in common because they enjoyed the fighting to much.
Wow, this is really weird, I feel kinda bad about what I'm saying to him/her. But I just can't seem to be able to stop, this is really annoying, ughhhh. They thought consecutively.
Soon the food had arrived and they all ate in silence for half of the meal. Then Alvin said to Brittany while swallowing his food;
'So I heard your CD was coming out soon, are all of the songs going to be all girly or is it going to be real music? Like my CDs?' he tested.
'Well I will have you know that I co-wrote most of the songs with my sisters, and it will be a great CD with the most awesome music this industry has heard in a long time.' She countered.
'Are you saying that my CDs are nothing to yours?' he thought out load.
'Yea, I am!' Brittany said standing up, but while she did this, she smashed her hands on the table and hit her fork full of spaghetti that went flying at Alvin's face, and hit him smack dab on the nose.
He stood up as well and purposefully grabbed some of his mashed potatoes and threw them towards Brittany. Who dashed out of the way just in time to save her dress, but the potatoes hit Jeannette instead. Simon who was enraged by this, immediately grabbed some of his food and threw it at Alvin, but since he did not have very good motor skills, it wasn't even close to hitting Alvin and landed instead on poor unsuspecting Theodore.
Since Theodore was still eating his food he gladly accepted this and just started licking it off of his face. Eleanor on the other hand who was the most sporty of the chippettes was not very please with how Simon threw that in his direction, so before you knew it Eleanor was equipped with a banana cream pie and hurling it at Simon.
Now that the majority of the chipmunks were covered in food, a great food fight broke out, and soon enough even Brittany was enjoying herself despite the food all over her dress. Since the restaurant saw that it was Alvin and the Chipmunks, and their new friends the soon to be famous Chippettes fighting, they did not stop the fight, but made sure that they were enclosed in their own little area so as not to disturb anyone else. They figured that whatever damage was made the chipmunks could pay for it.
Once they were completely full of food they heard a noise at the door, and all of a sudden it became quite clear what it was, the very familiar sound of Dave coming to pick them up.
'ALLLLVVIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!' Dave yelled when he saw the state of the restaurant and then his chipmunks.
'What happened here?' Dave said.
'Well you see, the food was so good that we decided to let everyone have a taste.' Alvin explained, motioning to the table where the food used to be neatly placed.
'I don't care right now, let me go pay for this and I'll be back to take you home. You too girls. Then,' he gave the boys a scorching look; 'you have some explaining to do when you get home.'
'Yes, Dave.' They chorused.
As Dave went into the kitchen to talk to the manager, they guys went over to their counterparts.
Over with Simon and Jeanette she made sure that she was going to see him soon, and gave him her number again, since the other one was ruined. They both blushed the entire conversation, especially at the end when he was leaving and Simon reached over and moved a piece of her hair that was in her face, behind her ear.
Meanwhile with Theodore and Eleanor they were laughing about how tonight had ended to oddly, but both enjoyed themselves non the less, and made sure as well that they would get together to share recipes.
Then there was Alvin and Brittany, who both secretly enjoyed themselves during the food fight they had together, dodging and laughing simultaneously. But neither of them would admit to it, so they finished with a shrug and a goodbye, but then Brittany said,
'I had fun tonight, thanks for coming to meet us, Alvin. And I hope we see you guys soon, like when our CD comes out, I might be able to get you guys into a CD signing.'
Now even though Brittany had only meant it as an offer to be able to see him again, which she wanted to do, Alvin took this as saying that he and his brothers couldn't otherwise get into something like a CD signing for a new band. So he retorted;
'Well don't count on it, maybe we will, but maybe we won't. But the chipmunks don't need any help from anyone. See you later.' And with that he and his brothers left the restaurant when the girl's driver showed up. That night all of the chipmunks and chippettes couldn't stop thinking about their counterparts, and hoped that they would soon meet again. Even Alvin and Brittany wanted to bump into each other soon, and they would do almost anything to get it. And with all the new doors opening for the chippettes, it seemed like at the moment anything was possible, and that this was the beginning of an interesting adventure.
