Chapter 4: Are we cool now?
Theodore and Simon arrived at the kitchen, they saw Jeanette and Eleanor getting a bottle of water from the refrigerator (Human Size) and also a straw for Brittany to sip in.
The two chipmunks headed towards the Chipettes.
"Umm, Jeanette? Can I have a word with you?" Simon asked.
Jeanette and Eleanor looked at each other like they are talking using their minds, after a few moments, Jeanette nodded, "Ok Simon" she replied.
"Come with me" Simon said and grabbed Jeanette's hand, making her face red and hot like a chili pepper, then the two walked away, leaving Theodore and Eleanor with the bottle and the straw.
Simon and Jeanette stopped walking, far away from anyone to hear their conversation.
"What do you want to tell me Simon?" Jeanette asked, noticing that Simon is still holding her hand tightly, she blushed at this then giggled.
"Why are you laughing?" He asked a little confused.
"My hand, please?" She said, letting out another giggle.
"Oh" He said loosening his grip and quickly let it go.
"So?" she said quietly.
"Oh, sorry about what Alvin did a while ago, it's all my fault, I let Alvin do that" He apologized "I should've been more responsible, Dave counted on me, and I can't let him down." He added.
"It's ok Simon ,It's not your fault , we all know that Alvin could be very naughty and crazy sometimes" Jeanette said in a comforting voice.
"I..I think your right" He sighed, "Thank you Jeanette" He said softly.
"For what?" she asked.
"For the time" He said.
"No problem Simon" Jeanette smiled.
There's a long silence between the two, then Simon broke the silence, "Would you like to go to the Library tomorrow?" He asked.
"I'd love to Simon" Jeanette nodded.
"Come on, let's go back where Theo and Ellie are" he said.
"Right" Jeanette said, waiting for Simon to hold her hand again, but he didn't, she felt a little sad because of this.
-Back to Eleanor and Theodore-
"Um, Ellie? I'm sorry Alvin did that, he didn't mean to" Theodore apologized.
"It's ok Theo" Eleanor said.
"Are you mad?" Theodore asked.
"Of course I'm not mad Theo, I could never do that, especially to you" she smiled.
"Oh, ok" he said shyly. "Let's cook together sometimes" he added.
"Ok!" she said with joy.
Then someone shouted behind them "Hey guys!" they turned around and saw Jeanette and Simon.
"So, what did he say to you?" Eleanor whispered.
"I'll tell you later." She whispered back.
"What are you two mumbling about?" Simon asked.
"Umm, girl talk Simon" Eleanor said.
The chipmunks only shrugged, "Come on, let's bring this to Britt, she must be very thirsty with all that sobbing and crying" Jeanette said, "Could you help us boys?"
"Sure" Simon said, "Come on Theo, we'll lift the bottle and let the girls bring the straw".
"Ok" Theodore replied, lifting the bottle up, then the four headed towards the living room where Alvin and Brittany are.
-At the living room-
Brittany is still in Alvin's arm, resting her head on his shoulders. Then they heard tiny footsteps, they quickly let go of each other.
"Britt" Eleanor squeaked and jumped into the sofa. The two chipmunks jumped into the sofa too, Eleanor opened the bottle and put a straw in it. "Here you go" Eleanor smiled.
"Thank you Ellie" Brittany smiled back, taking a sip from the bottle.
"You're Welcome" Eleanor said.
"So, are we cool now?" Alvin asked the Chipettes.
The Chipettes gently nodded, "Just don't do that ever again Alvin" Brittany reassured.
"Promise! Close my heart!" Alvin said, his left hand pointing to his heart and the other hand raised in the air.
The 6 sat in the living room for several hours watching the television. Then Theodore's belly grumbled, loudly enough for everyone to hear it, "You must be very hungry that your belly grumbled very loud" Eleanor giggled.
Theodore blushed, feeling hungry at the same time ashamed.
"So, who want to eat snacks?" Alvin asked. "Me!" the 5 said in unison. "Into the kitchen!" Alvin said pointing the kitchen.
Alvin opened the cabinet, their jaw dropped as they saw an army of cheese balls, "Whoa, I didn't know that Dave would leave this many for us" Alvin said in amazement.
"Dave is really kind and thoughtful" Brittany said.
"Let's pick one for us to dig in" Simon said.
"Hmmm…do you guys like spicy cheese balls?" Alvin requested pointing the spicy flavored cheese ball.
"Ooohhh….let's try them" Theodore pleaded.
"Mayday!" Alvin shouted and threw the spicy cheese ball down at the table.
Simon opened it using a pair of scissor, "Bon appetite" Alvin said to his fellow chipmunks and Chipettes.
"Aren't you gonna eat Alvin?" Simon asked, "No thanks, still not hungry" Alvin replied.
The 5 dig in, as Alvin watches them, then after a while, their face started to burn, and turn red, their ears let out a whistling steam.
"What's the problem guys?" Alvin asked.
"Water! I need water!" Simon shouted, trying to find fresh water.
"At the sink quick!" Brittany shouted. The 5 ran into the sink, and quickly opened the faucet. The water splashed at them, quenching the spicy flavor in their mouth, but a little only.
Alvin picks up the spicy cheese ball and tried it, *munch*munch*gulp* "It's not bad at all, in fact, it tastes perfect!" He said, eating more spicy cheese balls.
"The water's not enough, my mouth is still burning, and my tummy starts to ache too" Theodore complained. Eleanor sat beside him and comforted him.
"Hmm, guys, I just want to share a fact, drinking milk rather than water is more effective in quenching the spicy flavor in our mouth" Simon explained.
"That's true! Good idea Simon!" Jeanette agreed.
Brittany quickly headed towards the fridge to find milk, "Where is that milk?" Brittany said, trying to find the milk inside the fridge.
"Look behind that big box" Simon said pointing into the big brown box. Jeanette helped Brittany to push the box, and they saw the milk.
"Jackpot!" they both shouted.
"Guys! Drink this milk, it'll sooth the spiciness" Jeanette said, handing Theodore and Eleanor a cup of milk.
They both drank it, "Wow! It really works!" Eleanor said in amazement.
Theodore is still drinking, then let out a loud *burp*, they all giggled, except Alvin who is still busy munching the cheese balls.
"Jean, Britt, Let's drink it too" Simon said, handing the two Chipettes a cup of milk.
*glug*glug*glug* "Ahhhhhhh….it's really more refreshing than water!" Brittany said in satisfaction.
"What about Alvin? Do you think he like to drink too?" Jeanette asked.
The five looked at him, still digging in the spicy cheese balls, "Naaa, I think he's alright" Brittany said.
Brittany looked at the clock and her eyes widened, "Oh my gosh! It's almost dinner, we have to go!" she said to her sisters.
"Aww, but I want to stay a little longer" Eleanor said.
"We can't, Miss Miller would be worried" Brittany said.
"I also want to stay a little longer but, Britt's right, we have to go now, or Miss miller would be worried" Jeanette agreed.
"Well, I guess it can't be helped" Simon said cleaning his glasses.
The chipmunks escorted the chipettes towards the door, but before they say their goodbyes, Brittany remembered something.
"Wait!" she yelled, "I almost forgot, Miss Miller asked if you want to come over to our house for dinner" she said.
"Sure! We want to come, right boys?" Alvin said, wrapping his arms around his Theo and Simon's shoulders.
"Ok" Theodore squeaked.
"Count us in girls" Simon said in agreement.
"Well, see you there later, Bye!" Brittany said, the chipettes waved goodbye, the chipmunks waved back then closed the door.
