I only own my OC!


Moving In With the Chipmunks

The Next Day, Early

I walk out the door, dragging a suitcase. Dave's here, and Ian's gone, which means we've got a window of time for me to get away. I, for one, can't wait to get out. I'm wearing a white cap sleeved T-shirt with cherries embroidered on the front, a denim skirt with cherries embroidered on the pockets, and a light pink hoodie with embroidered cherries. My hair is braided into two braids, and secured with red ties.

I look up when I see feet stop in front of me. "Ready to go?"

I grin up at the human. "Yep!" Dave opens the passenger door and lets me in before closing it.

"You okay?"

I nod. "Tired…" I sigh. "But I was up all night…"

"Ian?"

I nod. "Then I realized I needed ta pack before Dave came, so…" I shrug. "I'm fine, though. I'm safe now."

Dave turns to me. "I'll keep you home for a couple days so you can settle in, but then it's back to school."

I smile. "I can live with that." I fiddle with my braids as I continue. "Thanks, for doing this… Ya really didn' hafta take another chipette in…"

"It's no problem…"


Dave's House

After we dropped the six off at school, Dave takes me to their house. He shows me around quickly, then takes me to my room before leaving me alone. It looks bigger than the room the Chipmunks and Chipettes share, but it's really about the same size—theirs just has more furniture, and more people living inside than mine does.

I put my clothes away, then pull out my backpack and settle at my new desk with my homework. It doesn't take me long to get it done, and, after putting it away, I start exploring.

I soon wind up in the Chipmunks' and Chipettes' bedroom, and look around for a minute before starting to look under beds, and in drawers. I'm not trying to snoop, but I am curious. Ultimately, I wind up standing on the top of the boys' bunk beds, looking through a shelf of Goosebumps books and DC Comics for something to read.

"Shey? What are you doing in Alvin's bed?"

I freeze before looking over to Dave slowly. "Tryin' ta find something to read that won' scare me to death or bore me ta tears." I say as if it's obvious. I hate stupid questions.

He sighs and holds out a hand. Once I climb in, he takes me into the living room. "Alvin's not allowed to have his monster stories anywhere near Theodore, and Brittany hates having her magazines messed with. The others keep their books on the first two shelves."

I look at my feet. "Sorry…"

He sighs. "You just got here. You didn't know." He sighs. "I'm sure Alvin's told you a lot about me, but I'm not always hard on them. Alvin's just…reckless. As long as you listen, and you're careful, you won't get in trouble."

"Okay…" I climb off his hand and start looking through the books before slipping one out and dragging it back to my room. "Thanks, Dave!"

"You're welcome…" He sighs. "I need to finish this song. Will you be okay on your own?"

"Yeah…go ahead." I smile up at him. "I'm just gonna read in my bed."

"All right… I'll come get you when we have to pick up the others."

"Okay."

"Come get me if you want anything to eat. I don't let the others mess around in the kitchen without me anymore. They've made some pretty horrific messes in the past."

"Okay…" I look up at him. "Why do I get my own room, while everyone else shares?"

Dave sighs. "You're used to being on your own, while they've always had others around. I was thinking about moving the girls into that room in a few months, but I need to let you get used to the chaos first."

"You don't have to do anything for me, Dave…"

He sighs softly and crouches to me. "You're not with Ian anymore. Around here, we help each other out." He smiles. "That means, when someone needs it, we help them. It doesn't matter if they're family, friends, or strangers; we do whatever we can to make their lives better."

"Okay…" I smile up at him. "Then thanks."

"Now…" He stands. "I need to get back to work. Try to keep the noise down, and don't break anything."

"Yes, Sir!" I giggle. "Later, Dave." I run into my room, still dragging the book, and throw it onto my bed before jumping up after it. I open the book to the first page before lying on my stomach to read.
