Where'd Our Lives Go?
Chapter 7
"Simon!" Alvin called out as he shook his brother
"Alvin, if you don't get your hands off of me I'm going to rip them off." Simon threatened as he bundled up in his covers and rolled away from Alvin. Since when does he wake up early on a Saturday anyway? Simon thought to himself. Oh Crap! It's Saturday! He thought, sitting up and throwing his covers off of himself, he grabbed his clock and stared at it, everything seemed fuzzy, and he shook his head and grabbed his glasses. "Ten o'clock? Alvin, we don't have to be at the Chipette's house until three." Simon said, standing up he stretched his arms and popped his neck. Alvin stuck his tongue out in disgust.
"I'm taking the first shower, you might want to go get your morning coffee and get ready" Alvin suggested. He ran out of Simon's room and shut the door. Simon stood and let the blood flow get to his legs. Picking up his phone he saw he had a text message from Brittany.
"Good morning sweetheart, I miss you.
I can't believe that it's prom night already!
I have to get my hair done and wow you beyond belief"
Simon chuckled at the text message, he just sent back a message saying I love you and slipped his undershirt back on. He opened the door almost bumping into Theodore
"Oh, Simon, I was just coming to tell you that your breakfast is ready." Theodore said after he regained his balance, he turned and walked downstairs with Simon following in toe. When they got to the Kitchen Simon smiled, Theodore had made him French toast and eggs.
"Thank you Theodore" He told his brother as he grabbed a coffee mug and filled it. He grabbed a packet of artificial sweetener and poured it in. mixing it with a spoon he grabbed. "Are you ready to dance with Ellie tonight Theo?" Simon asked, taking a seat where his plate was sat.
"Well, not exactly, I've never quite been good at dancing." Theodore said, sitting across from Simon. Simon crossed his arms and looked at Theodore sternly.
"Theodore, you'll be fine tonight, just let Ellie lead, it'll make everything easier." Simon said, cutting into his first piece of French toast, he nodded at Theodore for approval; Theodore rushed off to get ready. Simon sat and looked out the window to stare at the sky. Why did I agree to go to this dance again? It's just going to be a lot of nonsense, but then again, Brittany wanted to go. It's best to listen to the girlfriend, better listen to hear, I'd rather not die. Simon thought as he sighed.
"Simon, the shower's open!" called Alvin from the upstairs, pulling Simon from his thoughts.
"Alright, Theodore you go ahead and take your shower!" Simon called upstairs; Theodore barely acknowledged but nodded where Simon couldn't see him nod. Simon started eating his French toast and pondering the previous night. What if Brittany really was pregnant and she was just lying to me… No, she wouldn't lie. Not my Brit. Besides, I have no idea what we'd have done if she was. Oh well, I have to swing by the convenience store on the way there and pick up some condoms for tonight. I hope I have enough time to. Who am I kidding; I don't have any extra time today. We'll just have to pray for safety. Simon thought, he pulled himself out of his thoughts long enough to throw away his table scraps and put everything in the dishwasher.
"Simon, it's your turn to use the shower!" Called Theodore from the upstairs and Simon sighed. He went upstairs going into his room and grabbed his provisions for his shower and quickly ran to the bathroom.
"What is Brittany so worried about if we do it tonight, she'll start her period tomorrow." Simon whispered to himself as he took off his clothes and turned on the shower, letting it warm up. "Besides, I'll be careful tonight. I have to or Eleanor's going to make my package into a mantelpiece." Simon said, shuddering, he looked in the mirror and saw the hickey that Brittany had given him in their first "Endeavor". On top of the right side of his chest, he touched the bruised flesh and winced. "It's been a week and a half and that hasn't healed, that's the strange part" Simon said, once again getting tied up in conversation with himself.
Simon removed the rest of his clothes and took his shower, he paused for several minutes between lathering, rinsing, and repeating to let the warm water run down his skin. That was always his favorite part about his showers, the alone time. He finished up and stepped out, grabbing his blue towel he commenced to drying off and doing his normal bathroom routine.
Simon walked to his room and started getting dressed. He looked at his phone, 2:30. "I need to hurry up and get over to the Chipette's house" he said as he hustled and got dressed in his tuxedo, almost choking himself with his tie. He finally got that situated and ran downstairs, tripping and catching himself before he could fall down all the stairs. He ran and grabbed his phone and Brittany's blue corsage out of the refrigerator. "Hope she likes it" he said as he grabbed his keys and closed the door behind him.
Simon started his Lamborghini and backed out of the driveway, his phone started buzzing but he ignored it this time. It only took him ten minutes to get to the Chipettes house; Alvin and Theodore were on their way. Before he could even get his hand to the door to knock, Jeanette opened the door.
"Hello Simon, you're early." Jeanette said, only letting her face show in the door.
"Only by a few minutes" Simon said catching his breath. "May I come inside?" he asked, hiding his corsage behind his back.
"Yeah, Brittany should be down any moment." Jeanette said. She was wearing a shin length red dress that hugged her tightly.
Simon took a seat on the couch and took in a deep breath, he had never been prepared for something like this, it was killing him just to sit here and wait for Brittany, Eleanor ran down the stairs in her knee length emerald green dress and passed Simon, she stopped and turned back to look at him. "Simon, you clean up good." She said to him.
"Uh… thanks Ellie." Simon said to her uneasily. "But it's the tux, not me, trust me." Simon said blushing. Eleanor giggled.
"Oh Simon, you're so modest." She said, she pet him on the head and walked back into the kitchen.
"Simon!" there was a call from the stairs, Simon turned to see Brittany and his jaw dropped a foot. The blue dress she wore last night was traded in for an even more eloquent one and her hair was done up, simplistic yet beautiful. She wore large hooped earrings and she wore high heeled blue shoes. Simon stood and walked over to her.
"Brittany, you're… you're…" Simon was at a loss for words.
"Beautiful?" Brittany suggested, but Simon shook his head
"Angelic." He corrected her, her grabbed her hand gently and guided her down the stairs and sat her on the couch. "I got you something, but it's nothing as elegant as the rest of your outfit." Simon said, frowning. Brittany smiled at him and looked into his eyes
"What is it sweetheart?" Brittany asked him.
"Well," He pulled the corsage out from behind his back and she squealed. Simon took that as a sign of approval. He slipped it gently over her wrist and kissed her on the cheek.
"Simon, it's gorgeous" Brittany said, looking at the corsage's every single detail "Where did you find a florist to do this?" She asked him
"Well, I had it imported from another country, the name slips my minds right now though, no wait. I remember now it was Fiji." Simon said, Brittany's jaw dropped, she pulled him into a super tight hug and he kissed her neck, she moaned and pulled him closer. A knock at the door separated the two and Eleanor ran out of the kitchen to answer the door, giving Simon a glare.
"Oh, hello Alvin" Eleanor said, "Where's Theodore?" She asked, before he could make his way into her line of vision. "Oh my goodness Theodore, you look incredible!" She said pushing Alvin inside and closing the door behind her. Simon chuckled.
"Maybe she won't ride us for the rest of the night huh?" Simon asked Brittany before he pulled her in to give her a kiss.
"Ahem!" Alvin said. He tried pulling the two apart before their lips could touch. "I'm in the room here people; don't need you guys slobbering all over each other. I'd prefer if I didn't have to vomit before prom please." He said, faking gagging.
"Alvin, why don't you go find yourself a toy to play with or something?" Brittany suggested with a smile. Simon chuckled.
"That's right Si; laugh at her jokes because she's your girlfriend." Alvin spat
"No I laugh at her jokes because they're funny and catch the true essence of who you are." Simon said, he pulled Brittany closer again. He kissed her on the lips and Alvin started to fake gagging and Jeanette came into the room; she meekly walked over and hugged him. Simon and Brittany pulled apart and watched. Alvin's cheeks turned red and he wrapped his arms around Jeanette.
"Umm… Jeanette, can we talk in private for a moment?" Alvin asked her
"Yeah, of course Alvin, let's go in the kitchen." Jeanette offered pulling him into the other room, Simon and Brittany stayed quiet. The only thing that either of them could hear was Jeanette squeal and the words.
"Yes! Yes!" Jeanette screamed from the other room, she ran out and jumped, hugging Brittany and Simon. "Alvin just asked me out!" She squealed at the top of her lungs, Simon was afraid he was going to go deaf.
"Netta! That's amazing!" Screamed Brittany just as loud as Jeanette
"Yeah, Jeanette I'm proud but, I'm also sensitive to sounds above a thousand decibels." Simon joked. Brittany playfully slapped his chest and leaned in close to him. Alvin came back in blushing and took a seat on the chair beside the couch; Jeanette went over and sat with him in the chair.
Eleanor and Theodore entered the room and sat down on the chair on the opposite end of the couch from Alvin and Jeanette. "So, are we ready to go?" asked Eleanor who was holding Theodore's hand gently
"I don't see why we wouldn't be. When is the limousine supposed to be here?" asked Simon.
"It should be any minute now." Brittany answered. She laid her head on Simon's shoulder. Great, now my shoulder's going to smell like hairspray and be covered in glitter, thought Simon.
There was a honk that came from outside. "OH! The limo is here!" Squealed Brittany as she stood up, everyone got up and brushed themselves off. "I can't wait to get there, and I can't believe that they picked the Monte Carlo theme for the prom, it's going to be so beautiful in the gym. Who did they get for the entertainment? Oh my goodness this is exciting!" Brittany said as every got out of the house. The Chipettes had ordered a long black limousine and it was luxurious inside as it was outside. Everyone go inside and they rode to their school
