A.N.\ I don't pretend to be a good writer. I just love writing.
Chapter Two
Dealing with Men
The Chippettes stood outside the luxurious Hotel de Raphael, waiting for the boys. Brittany was tapping her foot impatiently, Eleanor was rocking back and forth on her heels, and I was waiting silently. Suddenly a black Mercedes with flames drove up. We girls shared a look that said, 'yeah it's them'. Eleanor muttered out of the corner of her mouth "Bet Alvin picked out the design". I snickered and Brittany glared at us. Alvin was the first to get out. He had grown his hair out a bit and he had an earring. Brittany tried really hard to put on an indifferent look but it didn't work. It was to obvious she thought he was hot. To a girl anyway. Guys are and will always be clueless. Next was Theodore. He was plump, but still managed to be cute. That took talent. Alvin bowed to me, "Mademoiselle Jeannette", he said in a ridiculous French accent, "I believe zat it is your birthday, yes?". I just giggled, knowing perfectly well that I was just encouraging him. He wiggled his eyebrows. "It is an honor to be in the presence of two beautiful ladies". Brittany stood up taller, "How dare you insult my sister?". Alvin looked at her with one eyebrow raised and said in his normal voice, "Actually I was talking about them two" he jerked his thumb toward Eleanor and me. Brittany's jaw dropped and Alvin smirked, "My point". She took a step closer to him. Then she slapped him. Hard. He stared at her. Then he slapped her back. Hard. There was a moment of silence. Then Brittany tackled him, "IDIOT!" she roared. He yelled and put his hands over his head. She beat him with her fists, screaming bloody murder. "UNCLE! UNCLE! UNCLE!", Alvin yelled. Me, Eleanor, and Theodore started to laugh. A voice came from inside the Mercedes, "I told you that would happen", and Simon got out. I stopped laughing. Simon looked a lot the same. He was slim, was not muscular, large round glasses, and had gray eyes. But there was something about the way he held himself, something about the way he smiled. It was wonderful. Eleanor ran up and hugged him, "It's good to see you Simon!". He grinned and hugged her back, "It's good to see you too". Both Theodore and I glared jealously at them. Then Eleanor let go of him and ran over to hug Theodore. I relaxed. I didn't know why it made her feel that way. Just the fact that Eleanor had touched Simon put me on edge. "What is wrong with me?", I thought. My eyes wandered over to Brittany who was still trying to kill Alvin. Could I be in love with Simon? Then it hit me. Literally. I staggered and fell to my knees. My head was throbbing and it felt like I had been whacked with a sledge hammer. Or in my case, a shoe. I wrapped my arms around me as the world seemed to reel. I felt someone grabbing me and turning me over. Someone called out "Hey should we get an ambulance?". There was another yell, this one from beside me "It's your entire fault you idiot. You were the one that threw the shoe!" Brittany. "Well you ducked it" Alvin. There was another voice, "Move out of the way, move out of the way. Let me see her" Simon. I felt Simon touching my head "It's a concussion" he felt my pulse, "She's alright. She just needs to lie down for a while. Get her inside". They were picking me up but I grabbed Simon's arm and clung to it. They tried to pry me off but I was hysterical and wouldn't budge. He made them stop and keep carrying me. He walked with them, holding my hand, "It's all right Jeannette. It's gonna be okay. I promise". I whimpered. Then everything went black.
A.N\ I changed this to first person because I thought it would make more sense. And it will be easier to change POV.
