I am sooo sorry! There were some things going on that I needed to take care of, with school, and family. But I'm not dead. Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!
Simon's POV
Because Danielle alienated everyone I care about, I had to get them back. It'd been 3 days since the Slammies. Theodore forgave me right away. He's always been the sweet caring one. Alvin was still on the fence. I mean, he was talking to me, but wasn't, you know. The Chipettes had a completely different approach. Brittany hated my guts , but that might've been for calling her a petty liar. Every time I see the girl she kills me with her eyes. Jeanette didn't talk to me, look at me, stand near me. Eleanor was kind of like Alvin, she would say hi, bye, but never hold a conversation. I decided to start now. She'd either kill me, or...kill me.
"Uh, hi B-Britt." I sttutered.
Alvin shook his head next to her, but didn't say anything. Neither did Brittany.
"I-I wanted to a-apologize, for calling you, p-" I started.
Alvin hit me on the arm, mentally saying, 'DON'T SAY IT!'
"It's okay, Simon. I forgive you, for now." Brittany huffed.
I would've said more, but we walked up to the front of the school.
Jeanette walked by, talking to Eleanor.
"Bye Ellie." Theodore said.
"Bye Teddy!" Eleanor giggled.
"Bye Britt!" Alvin said, letting go of her hand.
"Bye-bye, Alvie!" Brittany said, batting her eyes.
Alvin groaned, then trudged to his friends.
"Bye Netta." I said, hoping for some type of a response.
"Bye, Britt!" she said, as if she didn't hear me.
I can't say I didn't deserve that. I'm definitely going to get her back.
How is a completely different thing.
Alvin's POV
I've got to help Simon. We all know he screwed up, but, he's a human, er, chipmunk, and we all make mistakes. Brittanyw as mad at him, but she felt sorry for Jeanette. You would think she'd be happy now that she could go out with Simon, but Brittany says that Jeanette is 'holding her dignity.' I guess it's a woman thing. Anyway, he's just so mopey. He came home today, moped to the couch, and watched the Spanish channel. And we don't speak Spanish.
"Si?" I said.
I saw him look up, and his eyes looked dead.
"What?" he said.
"You okay?" I asked. I know, not a smart question.
"Yes, Alvin. I completely screwed up my chances with the girl of my dreams, and now she hates me. I'm on cloud 9!" he said sarcastically.
"Look, Si, I've been thinking, and I've decided you need help." I said.
"Really?" he said, sarcastically.
"Yeah" I said.
"How are you gonna help me?" he questioned.
-Simon's POV-
"Look Si. You know Jeanette better than me, so I can't offer much, but I do know this. Jeanette isn't Brittany. If I had pissed her off like you did Jeanette, I'd be limping right now." He said.
"Your point being?" I asked, even though I knew he was right.
"Jeanette is a forgiving person. You have to let her know you care." He said.
"That's the thing Alvin; I have no idea on how to do that!" I said, desperately.
"Well, Si, I don't have any ideas." Alvin said.
"Alvin! Please! You watch all those sappy movies with Brittany! Those have to be jam-packed with stuff!" I begged.
"You're the genius. Use your Einstein smarts or whatever." he said.
Brothers. The ones you count on. Most of the time.
"Alvin, can't you just help me." I said.
"Well, y'know Si, if you're just going-" he started, but I cut him off.
The idea hit me like a ton of bricks. "I got it." I whispered getting wide-eyed.
-Alvin's POV-
'Aw, damn. He's getting wide-eyed.'
-Back to Simon-
I had the perfect idea.
"Earth to Simon. Helloooo?" Alvin called.
"Al, I need a solo on Saturday's concert." I said, excited.
"Si, that's more like Dave's department." Alvin said from the refrigerator.
"Oooh cake!" he said.
I got off the couch, and walked into the kitchen. He had already dug into the chocolate mousse cake that was in the fridge.
"Where'd you get the cake?" I asked.
"Fwige." Alvin said with a mouth full of cake. Then, I heard Theodore walk in the house.
"Hey Theo. Do you know where-" I started.
"MY CAKE!" he shrieked.
"Oops." Alvin chuckled nervously.
"Alvin," Theo whined. "I made this for Eleanor. It was her favorite. Raspberry chocolate mousse cake with white chocolate shavings." He said.
"Well, Theo, you didn't really leave a note." Alvin defended.
"Yes I did!" he said picking up a pink post-it note.
"Don't eat. –Theodore" Alvin read.
"Heh heh." Alvin chuckled.
I just shook my head disapprovingly, and headed down to my lab. I had work to do.
…
-Jeanette's POV-
The Chipmunks and Chipettes had just finished an amazing cover of Party Rock Anthem. Everybody waved and blew kisses (Brittany and Alvin), and walked off the stage. Well, except for Simon. He stood on the stage, with a mic in hand, and said.
"Hello, ladies and gentleman. I would like to dedicate this solo to someone, who is very near and dear to my heart. I'm sure most of you witnessed the Slammies last week. I was a horrible friend to this Chipette, and I hope she can find it in her heart to forgive me. Ladies and gentleman, introducing Jeanette Miller."
I panicked on the inside, but Brittany was already pushing me on the stage saying "Go! Go!"
I stood near Simon and waved to the audience.
"Jean, I hope this song can, sort of, explain the way I feel.
Soft music to Jack Johnson's "Better Together" played as Simon looked at me. I looked at him, and in that moment something hit me.
No song that I could sing, but I can try for your heart
Our dreams, and they are made out of real things
Like a shoebox of photographs
With sepia-toned loving
Love is the answer
At least for most of the questions in my heart
Like why are we here? And where do we go?
And how come it's so hard?
It's not always easy and
Sometimes life can be deceiving
I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, we'll look at the stars when we're together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
And all of these moments
Just might find their way into my dreams tonight
But I know that they'll be gone
When the morning light sings
And brings new things
For tomorrow night you see
That they'll be gone too
Too many things I have to do
But if all of these dreams might find their way
Into my day to day scene
I'd be under the impression
I was somewhere in between
With only two
Just me and you
Not so many things we got to do
Or places we got to be
We'll sit beneath the mango tree now
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, we're somewhere in between together
Well, it's always better when we're together
Yeah, it's always better when we're together
Mmm, mmm, mmm
I believe in memories
They look so, so pretty when I sleep
Hey now, and when I wake up,
You look so pretty sleeping next to me
But there is not enough time,
And there is no, no song I could sing
And there is no combination of words I could say
But I will still tell you one thing
We're better together.
Then, Simon got on his knees.
"Jeanette, I've gone over this a million times in my head, and each time, it still didn't compare to how horrible I feel for causing you so much pain. Jean, I can't take not seeing your wonderful smile every day, or hearing your soft, beautiful voice each day. I know that I can't begin to fathom how much you mean to me. Jeanette Olivia Miller, I love you. I love you more than my lab, my beakers, science itself." That caused a round of gasps to circle through the audience.
"Jean, I'm begging you hear me out. Please forgive me. Please Netta." He pleaded.
"You called me Netta." I sniffled. Was I crying? I didn't even notice until now.
The sparkle of hope in his eyes grew as he stood up and took my hands.
"What do you say Jeanette?" he asked me.
"You love me more than science?" I smiled.
"You have no idea." He smiled.
And you know what he did next…
He kissed me! On stage, in front of all of Los Angeles to see! It was the most magical and wonderful kiss I've ever had! Our first kiss!
He broke the kiss, and I was kind of disappointed.
He turned and waved to the crowd and yelled "Good night LA!"
He picked me up bridal style and carried me offstage. I giggled all the way there. Everybody else was nowhere to be found. He set me down, took my hands and looked deep in my eyes.
"Thank you Simon. I love you." I beamed. New words, yet, they felt so natural.
"I love you too, Jeanette." He smiled.
We leaned in for another kiss, but were interrupted by Alvin blowing a rollup party blower in between our faces. We looked up to see Alvin cracking up, Brittany rolling her eyes, and Ellie and Theo were sharing a cupcake.
"Okay, it's great that you guys just confessed your nerd love," he said.
" Alvin." Brittany hit his arm.
"Let me finish, woman! Okay, where was I? Oh yeah, nerd love! You guys are in love, yay! This calls for…" Alvin said.
Eleanor and Theodore were leaning in to hear what he had to say.
"A TRIPLE DATE!" he yelled.
"What?" Simon exclaimed.
"I said, you guys and your nerd love confession calls for a TRIPLE DATE!" Alvin repeated.
"I swear, for the smart one, you're pretty slow." He muttered.
Brittany giggled.
"Actually, I'm totally on board with that." Simon said, grabbing my hand.
"Well then let's go." Alvin said, strutting through the stage door to the limo, humming Sexy and I Know It.
"He's a nut." Brittany said.
"Actually, he's your boyfriend." I said, smiling.
"Don't remind me." Brittany said.
"C'mon Britt. You know you love him." I said. We all started walking towards the limo.
"Yeah, I guess." She blushed.
Alvin then came back to Britt, picked her up bridal style, and started towards the limo again. But not before winking at Simon and saying
"Yeah, I got moves to little brother." And walking off.
We just shook our heads and laughed, climbing into the limo.
I decided to add the 'Cake' scene, because I felt Theo should y'know be in here : ) Also, when Alvin and Simon talk, I had two different files, so I had to combine them. But I think the chapter turned out nice. The next chapter will be the final, I think. :( But I have a few new ideas for more stories. Even an Alvinor. So, until the next chapter, which won't take forever to upload. I swear. : )
