A/N: I'm so sorry if this chapters short, I personally find Theonor extremelly hard to write about which is why there's less of them and are most likely to ammend faster than the other ships! Also I'm going to be editing the first few chapters soon to clear up mistakes. I've been thinking about stopping this book already, I'd re-write it again in the future but for now I don't think I've developed a good enough writing style to be publishing stories. For now I'm carrying on though because I'm still decinding. Enjoy this chapter :)
Chapter 3
*Theodore's POV*
A delicious, sweet smell of pastries hit my nose as I strolled down the Food Tech corridor, ready for my lesson. The one thing I love about being at school: learning new recipes and new techniques for future cooking tasks. From what I can remember, I believe my friend Freddie is in this class. I'm thankful that I have a friend in this class, every year I get paranoid that I'll be on my own. Although to be fair I've always been an anxious person, ever since I was a child and we lived in the forest. Unfortunately, I wasn't fortunate to have a double Food Tech lesson therefore we aren't able to cook anything, atleast I can work on my strategies though. Its quite strange to think that in a years time, I won't be walking down these corridors, I'd have left and hopefully my plan on gaining a top restaurant will succeed. I'll obviously still be singing with my brothers, we have talent and aren't wanting to give that up however I would like to be recognised as some other than 'Alvin's baby brother' or 'the back up singer'.
Furthermore, it's crazy to think that in two months, me and my brothers will be leaving for our worldwide tour. We're going to so many places; there's going to be so many things to see/try. Our shows have pretty much sold out now, this is the first tour where we're in enormous arenas and have sold out to the point people have started to complain as they were unable to get tickets. This tour is specially happening for the release of our new album. The boys and I decided to change things up, yes we still have our trios on there but there's some solos and some duets actually. Alvin has the most solos - Simon has quite a few as well to be honest but I don't have as much because I still have that worrying/shy side of me that can panic.
I looked at my timetable and saw I was in room 'C4', that's next to my old classroom from last year. There's been so much times I've peered into that classroom, it's pretty small. I think it fits a class of 10 however they have some amazing appliences. Rumours were that it was for the over-achieving students in that lesson which really didn't surprise me because it has the really expensive kind of appliences.
Walking into the classroom, I immediately see seven other students in there. Still can't get over how small this class will be. Freddie's sat at the front table, he saved me a seat opposite these people called Mike and Jodie. I've not spoken to them two that much, there's been a few times where we spoke briefly about work which means I'll most likely always talk to Freddie. Our table was located directly in front of the teachers desk, maybe half a metre away. Well the advantage is that when she does demos we get the front look with no heads in the way. Although I always had to either sit on someones shoulder or on the table because obviously I'm a chipmunk so I'm extremelly tiny
"Did you make the Red Velvet Cake you spoke to me about last term?" asked Freddie
"I did, I tried twice since it was my first time doing it. First time came out okay however the mixture was more bitty for some reason however the second time was pefect" I said, kissing my fingers like an Italian chef.
"I heard this term, up until Christmas, we're learning about international food. If that's the case then I cannot wait to serve up my own chinese food without having to order take out constantly."
"Very true", I said, "I hope we do that topic, it'll be good for if I was to open a restaurant, there's more of an option for international visitors and a fantastic experience for people who would like to try food from different regions of the world".
Our teacher, Ms. Belle, handed us some folders to store our work as well as a Food Tech textbook each ready for us to revise for tests. Whilst she handed out the folders, I looked through our booklets to see what we're making this term. Freddie was right, it was International foods. Each week it seems up until Christmas break it seems that we're learning about a certain countries food and then on the double we'll make it. This will be such a fun topic, it'll prepare for when we're on tour and we're in places like Japan where they eat food that we don't have.
"Guys, I would like you to fill in this table about what you already know about each countries food they serve. I'll let you speak but please have it at a quiet level as I have work to prepare for the new Grade 7s" Ms. Belle said.
On the sheet it had so many countries: Brazil, England, Russia, Kenya, China. Using this time wisely, I decided to look on the back table to see if there were any other people I knew. Two of them where in my classes from a year ago now, Megan and Francine. They both loved Alvin, they claim to love us all but they're part of the group that sit on the bleachers, drooling over Alvin when playing sports. It confuses me when people claim they love us/want to marry is because they're basically saying they're open to marrying an animal which is so weird. Opposite Megan and Francince, there were some familar blonde pigtails and emerald green eyes. She had on a green casual skater dress, tied with a dark green ribbon. It was none other than Eleanor Miller, an old friend of mine.
Me and The Chipettes may not talk now but I'm proud for what they achieved. We're all attending the Teen Choice Awards in a few weeks actually. We've both been nominated for Choice: Music group, Alvin and Brittany have been nominated for some of the digital/fashion categories also. Interestingly I was nominated for Choice Comedian, I never even realised people found me funny. To be honest, I don't actually have an interest in reconiling my friendship with Eleanor. No offence to her, she's a sweet, loveable girl however we've grown apart and we've grown up since we were last friends.
Anyway, me and my table spoke about the work, helping each other out. For England i just put down 'Fish & Chips' as well as 'Afternoon Tea'. I just assume that they have eat these frequently. For some places it was easy, for example Japan I put down Sushi, hoever some were hard like Russia. I've never been, I heard it's cold there though. After a long time of discussing food, the bell finally went indicating it was lunch. I finally get to eat food!
