Chapter 9 Jealous

Alvin's POV

"Aallviin!!!" Dave screamed.

I woke up. Another Monday had come and another day of school. I heard steps coming upstairs, and my door was roughly slammed open by Dave.

"Alvin!!!" Dave screamed again "You know that you should had gotten up a long time ago, so get dressed and go to school!"

I looked at his angry face and I tried to come up with an good excuse or lie for staying home. "Oh, you see, Dave you know that I wouldn't miss a day of education, but after our trip to Sweden I think that I might have damage my arm from the guitar. I think it would be best if I stayed home for today just to be safe," I said and tried to make my arm look like it was damaged, but Dave just stared at me like that was one of my lamest excuse ever for skipping school. I sighed because I knew that he didn't, but then I had no choice but to get up. I got dressed and headed outside. Simon and Theodore had just left, so I was able to catch up with them before they had arrived to the bus stop. Theodore was relived that I wasn't too late, and Simon just shook his head.

"Alvin? I must ask you this," Simon said "Why do you keep trying to stay home every single Monday when you know that Dave never lets you? It has been on my mind for awhile now."

I looked at Simon and I couldn't help to laugh about it, because it was such a silly thing, Both Simon and Theodore looked at me confused at my strange behavior. "Sorry about that," I said and wiped some tears from my eyes. "But I have realized that I haven't skip school on a single Monday since the start of the school year, so I have kinda decided that at least once I'll try to stay home on a Monday. It's such a stupid thing," I said and began to laugh even more. Both Simon and Theodore laughed with me when they heard my answer and agreed that it was stupid.

"Alvin!!" I heard someone yelling my name, and I smiled when I saw that Brittany was running towards me. I gladly accepted her in my arms and kissed her like it was our first kiss once again. Never had her lips been sweeter as they were now. "What you did on stage in Sweden was crazy and so romantic," Brittany said and kissed me once more. I didn't wanna think about anything else then, but her lips at mine. I couldn't help to feel worried of what might happen today. While we were riding the bus I could hear the others whispering, and I could feel that they had their eyes on us. I knew that it would be problem when everybody knew, but at the same time, it felt right that they did know. I just ignored all the trash talk and rumors about me, but when it came to Brittany I sure would fight it. We arrived at school, and I saw Bobby was waiting for me. I gave Brittany a kiss goodbye and told her that I would meet her after the first hour. I walked up to Bobby and greeted him.

"Well, welcome back, Alvin," Bobby said.

My eyes widened with surprise. "Since when do you call me by my name?" I asked him.

"What? Do you miss you're nickname that much? You know that I can always go back to it if you like?" Bobby said and smiled.

"Oh, for heaven sake, no! Don't do that," I said, almost begging for him not to bring up that name again.

Bobby laughed. "Man, Al, I never knew that you and Brittany would end up together. With this, you have dated every 10 pointers and the class above it in school... I wonder how long this will last." That last thing he said was really offensive. I knew that Bobby was a joker, but that wasn't funny at all.

"For you're Information, Bob!" I said a bit harsh on him. "Brittany is the greatest girl I have ever been with, and you're betting on our relationship?! That's uncool man"

"Whoa, dude I'm sorry. I didn't know that she meant that much to you, my deepest apology," Bobby said regretfully.

I sighed and gave him a friendly hit on his shoulder assuring him that it was okay for now. "I'll meet you and Thomas for lunch and bring Linda with you if you like," I said to him and headed for my first class.

"Take care, Al," Bobby said.

I met up with Simon and we prepared for History class with my favorite teacher Mrs. Kensington... Yeah right. "Good day, Mrs. Kensington. It's always a pleasure of having class with you," I said, completely lying to myself. I even felt bad about it, and Mrs Kensington was just as cold as ever.

"You may sit down, Mister Seville," she said. "And then turn to page 53 in you're book," I gave her a fake smile and sat down. About an half hour of reading I was receiving a from note somewhere in the room. I made sure that Kensington wasn't looking then I unfolded it and read it: "You lying son of a Bitch. Brittany is my girl, and you stole her from me. Break up with her immediately, and no one will get hurt, it said. I became angry and tore it asunder. So it begins, I thought to myself of the jealousy of me and Brittany. The class ended and Simon noticed that I was upset.

"Is everything all right Alvin?" Simon said, concerned.

"I looked at him and sighed "No... I got my first threatening letter. It said that I better break up with Brittany."

"Ah, yes, threatening letter. I had those to when I dated Jeanette in the beginning, and Theodore had them too," Simon said

"What?!.. Theodore too?" I asked a bit surprised "But he doesn't seems affected by it at all?"

"I know. he has grown so much lately. He even fights his own battles, now... look, Alvin, we all have been where you are now, and believe me the only thing you can do now is to fight it. Don't let this take over your head and remember. If you're ever feeling down you can always talk to me and Theodore."

I smiled "Thank you, Simon. I'm feeling better, now that I know that I'm not the only one, but if you may excuse me. I promised Brittany to meet up with her."

"You go ahead. I'll head over to the library. See you at lunch, and say hi to her from me."

As I was walking to Brittany's locker I could feel it again how everybody was looking at me with their jealous eyes, but if my brothers managed to go through this then so will I. I spotted Brittany who was talking to Samantha, I sneaked up behind her and placed my hands over her eyes. "Guess who," I asked. She giggled and faced me. Then I gave her a kiss.

"Oh, so sweet," Samantha said. I ended the kiss and stroked Brittany's hair then I noticed Samantha.

"Oh, good day to you, Samantha," I said and smiled.

"Well, thank you, Alvin, but if you two lovebirds will excuse me. When I see you two spreading so much love, it wants me to do the same to Thomas. I'll leave you two alone for now. Later," she said and walked away. Brittany open her locker and was about to get a book, when I placed my arms around her waist and kissed her neck.

"Alvin," Brittany said amused "Cut it out. That tickles," She said and turned around and placed her arms around my neck and gave me a light kiss on my lips.

I gazed in her beautiful ice blue eyes and smiled. "Brittany have I ever told you how wonderful you are?" I asked her

She grabbed my cap and putted it on "Like everyday since we became one," she replied. She looks so happy, I wonder if I should tell her about the note?... maybe after school. "Alvin?" she said and smiled almost seductively. "You're going to be late for second hour."

I came back to reality. "Oh, shit. I'm late." I panicked and began to run, then I remembered my cap so I turned around grabbed it from Brittany and hurried as fast as I could.

Brittany's POV

I giggled as I saw Alvin panic, while running to his next class. This was one of many things that was so cute about him. I looked at my watch and saw that I still had some time before my second hour. I went to the bathroom... I looked in the mirror, while I was washing my hands. I noticed that some other girls entered. At first I didn't mind them, but when I saw that one of them was blocking the exit. The other two were just standing behind me and looked at me with angry eyes. I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable with it. I turned around.

"Do you have something against me?" I asked. Then one of the girls slapped me. "What the hell is you're problem?!!" I said getting angry.

"You're going to break up with him." I looked in her direction. She was a blond, and I recognized her. She always comes to see Alvin when he has a basketball practice. "You don't love him as much as I do, and the only explanation why he's with you must be that you are threatening him. For your own good you will break up with him," she said.

I stared at her with hatred. "Drop dead!... Alvin's with me because he loves me and you are just a crazy bitch fan that's just jealous of me and the fact that you can't have him."

I saw how the anger swelled inside of her, and she tried to land a punch on me. I easily blocked it and hit her instead. I might look like a pretty girl, but remember that I grew up in an orphanage and had fought my way from the streets to where I am today. The other girl tried to go against me, but I got a clean hit on her too. The third one manage to push me against the wall and held me with a iron grip. I struggled as much as I could, but the other two got up and started to hit me.

"You BITCH!!!" blondie yelled. She noticed my necklace that Alvin had given me. That's pretty. You probably wouldn't mind me if I took it," she said, while she grabbed it and roughly pulled it away from my neck.

I was in rage. "You keep your filthy hands away of it!!" I got loose and jumped at her and took it away from her then I felt a hand grabbed me and pulled me away. I lost my balance and fell and hit my head at the wall, and suddenly everything went black. When I woke up, I was laying on a bed. I tried to figure out where I was, and I had a terrible headache.

"BRITTANY!!" I heard someone yelling my name. It was Alvin, It seemed that I was in the Infirmary. He stormed in to the room. "Brittany?! Baby, are you okay" Alvin asked he was extremely worried and upset.

"Calm down, Mister Seville," The nurse said "She got a nasty bumb on her head, but she will be all right if you don't stress her out."

"Shut up," Alvin said. "She's my girlfriend, and I have the right to be worried... who did this Brittany?"

"Calm down, Alvin. I'm okay. It was just a obsessed fan," I said then I remembered. "Oh no my necklace!!" I started to panic.

"Easy now Miller," the nurse said and pointed at my hand. "When you were still was unconscious, you refused to loosen your grip of it."

I carefully loosed my grip of it and sighed in relief that it was unharmed. "Um, nurse, would you be kind enough to let me be alone with Alvin for a moment?" I asked.

"Sure," she said. "I was going to write a note anyway to send you home, but not too long. You need to rest." When it was just me and Alvin in the room, I scooted aside so he could sit down next to me.

"Alvin would you mind helping me put on my necklace." I pulled my hair away so it would be easier for him to put it on. He was still upset.

"How can you be so calmed after what has happened?" he asked me. I turned around and faced him. He was trying his best to keep the tears away. I guess this was too much for him to handle.

"Alvin we both knew that it would be difficult when our relationship became public."

He closed his eyes in frustration.

"Yes, but I couldn't imagine that you would be beaten up so bad that you had to be sent to the Infirmary... I'm such a pathetic boyfriend who cant even protect his girlfriend from harm."

I gently held his hands and kissed his forehead. He looked confused at me. "Alvin, you are the best boyfriend a girl possibly can ask for." I smiled and kissed him.

"I'm Sorry, Brittany, but I have to ask Alvin to leave... I called Miss Miller, and she will pick you up momentarily," The nurse said. Alvin wanted to stay a little longer. I nodded at him assuring that it was okay. "I'll see you later. Alvin, I love you," I said and the nurse led Alvin outside. I laid down and fingered on the necklace as I waited for Miss Miller.

Alvin's POV

I closed the door behind me. Brittany didn't want me to worry, but I couldn't help to feel that this was my fault. I was supposed to protect her, but I failed.

"Alvin!" Both Jeanette and Eleanor yelled, as they was running towards me "How is she?!" Eleanor asked worried.

"She's fine, but she is resting."

"Oh, thank god," Jeanette sighed in relief

"Sorry, girls, but I have to go. I already have a lot on my mind as it is. I'll call you later to check on her."

I walked away to my next class. I had to keep my mind on something else. This day felt twice as long, and I couldn't help to feel if it was wrong of me telling everyone that me and Brittany was a pair. If I hadn't, Brittany wouldn't had been hurt. I called Dave and told him what had happened, and I told him that I would be home later. I had to clear my mind.

First I couldn't help her from getting hurt by Michael, and this time she was injured by an obsessed fan. I was so angry at myself. I just kept on walking and tried to think about something else but it was hard. I went to a coffee shop and ordered a latte to go. I decided to call Jeanette and ask if Brittany was okay.

"Hello..., Alvin? Are you all right?" she asked concerned.

"Forget about me. Is Brittany awake?" I asked her.

"No, she's been sleeping ever since she got home. That's what Miss Miller told us... Oh, wait, Alvin. Theodore wants to speak with you..."

"Alvin, where are you? Are you feeling better" Theodore asked me. He sounded more upset then I was.

"Not yet, but I'll start to calm down in a bit. Thanks for asking... and thanks for keeping an eye on her for me. Theo, I will come over later."

"Hey, no problem. I'm just as worried as you are, but don't wait to long. I'm sure when she wakes up, it's you she'll want to see first."

"I'll make sure of it. I'm just going to sit down for a moment, then I will be over." I said goodbye and sat down on a bench in the park.

I sipped from my latte and looked over to the oak tree where I shared my first true kiss with her. I smiled. She was right. I couldn't let this incident let me down. Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I should be right next to her when she wakes up. I rose up from the bench.

"Hi, Alvin, remember me." I froze up that voice! It was different but yet so familiar I turned around to see who it was. My eyes widened, and I was so surprised that I dropped my latte. Then I felt so much anger swell deep inside of me it almost hurt. She had grown, but she looked like the same girl who ripped out my heart and left me.

"Charlene," I said with hatred.
