Start of a New School Year

Ch.3

"Brittany vs. Bad Angels pt. 2"

Wednesday came and Brittany watched the clock impatiently for the lunch bell to ring. She noticed Alvin fell asleep again and sighed as she finished her classwork thinking.

'I hope I make the final cut; I've been a cheerleader all my life practically.'

Finally, the bell rang and Alvin woke up and noticed Brittany was gone. The teacher approached him tapping his desk.

"Mr. Seville fall asleep in my class again and you will have detention and not be allowed on the basketball team understood! Now I advise you to finish today's assignment and make sure you turn in your homework tomorrow when you get in my class or I will go to the coach."

As he picked up his books and put everything in his backpack he grunted as he exited the class searching the halls. He didn't see Brittany and sighed. Then he caught up with his brothers and Brittany's sisters in the cafeteria.

In the meantime, Brittany, Sofia, Alicia, and Monica ran over to the bulletin board to see if they made the first cut. Behind them Vanessa and her little clique appeared and also read the bulletin board. Vanessa grabbed Brittany again.

"I am not kidding you little pop tart, break up with Alvin or else!"

Brittany grabbed her arm and slanted her eyes as she slammed Vanessa into the bulletin board then the wall.

"I am not afraid of you! So you can threaten me all you want. Now if you'd excuse me Ms. Bad Angel I have to put a new routine together for the final cut Ciao! See you Friday if you all passed the 1st cut."

As they made their way to the cafeteria Brittany talked to them about their routine for the final cut for cheerleading coming up on Friday at seven o'clock. The other girls giggled as they continued to walk. As they approached the cafeteria Brittany saw Alvin sitting down with his arms crossed, not touching his food. She walked over to him and asked.

"Alvin what's with you, you aren't eating your lunch? You seem really angry about something."

He didn't answer and just stayed silent, Brittany walked to get her lunch and wondered what was wrong with him. Through lunch she kept pestering him asking hoping he would open up to her about why he was being the way he was. She knows how much he hates school just as much as she does. Throughout lunch he still stayed silent not touching his food. His brothers looked starting to worry like Brittany. Simon knew he could be the one to get Alvin to open being his brother. He turned to Brittany.

"Brittany don't take it personal, I'll find out what is with my brother and let you know."

Brittany sighed as the bell rang as she made it to her next class that she had with Vanessa and the rest of the Bad Angels. Her other friends also had class with her so it wasn't that bad. Class ended and Brittany caught up with Alvin who was by his locker still not talking. Simon shook his head as Jeanette met him by his locker. She approached him and greeted him with a kiss.

"Simon did you find out why Alvin was acting like that at lunch? Did you even ask him yet?"

Simon shrugged as he closed his locker.

"No Jeanie he won't answer me, I asked him and he just ignored me. Maybe Brittany can get it out of him."

Brittany overheard and approached him with her arms crossed.

"Alvin Seville you better tell me what is eating you? I was trying to tell you something at lunch and you ignored me. Now I want an explanation on why you refused to eat at lunch and were so angry. I am your girlfriend and demand you to answer me chipmunk boy!"

Alvin looked up and slammed his locker glaring at her.

"I fell asleep in class in homeroom, and was threatened by our stupid teacher not to fall asleep in his class again or he will go to my basketball coach and I'll be off the team! Does that answer your question Brittany! That is why I was so angry and didn't feel like eating. I can't hang out with you after school today either he called my father and I was told to go straight home and do my homework plus the classwork from today. I despise school I swear! It's a waste of time! See you later babe, if I get done earlier I'll call you. Also watch your back Vanessa and her clique were talking again."

Brittany nodded as she watched him storm out of the school toward his house. Then she caught up with her friends and headed toward Sofia's house to put their routine together. They all made up a part of the routine and rehearsed for two and a half hours. Around six-thirty Brittany looked at her watch saying.

"Well girls I have to get home now. We had a great rehearsal. Tomorrow after school we will rehearse at my house in my yard. See you all tomorrow at school ciao."

As she walked out Sofia ran after her.

"Brittany please be careful, Vanessa and her clique hang out at the park after school. They see you alone they will jump you and I don't want to see you get hurt. I heard you tell Alvin that you will be careful don't go back on your word I mean it Britt. You are tough, but so is she and she can't fight on her own always has her friends with her. Call me as soon as you get home lass."

Brittany smiled as she responded.

"Yes I will call you Sofia, see you at school tomorrow."

As she walked passed the park Vanessa approached her laughing with her other bad angels behind her.

"I guess you thought that was cute before lunch huh pop tart? I warned you to dump Alvin or I will make sure you don't make it to the final cut Friday after school. Obviously that didn't sink in I saw you with him by his locker. Now as I promised you will be in the hospital tonight after I am done with you!"

Brittany slanted her eyes in anger and threw her backpack on the ground, taking off her leather pink jacket facing her.

"Fine you think you can hospitalize me, let me see you try! As I told you I am not afraid of you and will not give up Alvin. Now instead of running your mouth take a shot at me miss so called bad angel! I will teach you a lesson to mess with me!"

Vanessa went at her with a punch and Brittany ducked and knocked her into the swing set glaring still. Vanessa got up angrier and darted toward Brittany knocking her into the jungle gym, instead of hitting it Brittany reached up and swung on the bar and kicked Vanessa right into a garbage can making the top fall on her. Vanessa climbed out of the garbage can and ran at Brittany at top speed.

"Why you, little wait until I get my hands on you, shorty you will pay for taking Alvin from me."

Brittany dodged her attack and came up behind Vanessa taking her arm and flipping her on her back punching her dead in the mouth. Her punch was so powerful that blood spurt on her white blouse and she grabbed Vanessa's collar.

"Mess with me again and I will hospitalize you, consider yourself lucky that I didn't severely injure you!"

Brittany went to grab her backpack and the other bad angels came at her. Tabatha took out a knife from her back pocket and went at Brittany. Brittany seen it from the corner of her eye and drop kicked it from her hand. Then she punched her in the mouth making her bang into the pole by the swing set. Christine lunged at Brittany trying to get her off guard, but Brittany grabbed her leg and used her elbow to crush her knee cap. Christine fell to the ground on her back unable to get back up. Then Brittany glared at Susie.

"You want a piece of me blondie? You better get your friends some medical attention. Obviously you bad angels aren't as bad as you all claim to be! Because I am a chipmunk and just beat three of you by myself! Well anyway I got to go now!"

She picked up her backpack and made her way home unnoticed, then she ran up to her room and changed her blood stained shirt and threw it in the washer. A few minutes later her phone rang and she answered it.

'Hey Alvin, I just got in from rehearsal. Did you finish your assignment or do you need some help with it since you slept all through class? Yes, I paid close attention to the lesson and will help you. Yes, Alvin Miss Miller finally finished remodeling the house I have my own room now. Okay I will see you in fifteen minutes."

Back at the Seville house Alvin went into Dave's room.

"Dave I am going over Brittany's house because I need help on the assignment from homeroom."

Dave had his arms crossed.

"Why can't Brittany come here Alvin?"

Alvin got frustrated.

"Because her new room just got finished and it is past her curfew? Can I please go Dave?"

Dave stayed silent and got Alvin angrier.

"Why is it when I want to go by Brittany's to do my homework? You always have suspicions, and when Simon and Theo want to go by their house you have no problem? I am not a child anymore Dave, and it is not right that my two younger brothers have more freedom than me! I have proved myself responsible so many times when are you going to trust me?"

Simon appeared by Dave's room.

"Maybe when you stop acting like a child Alvin."

Alvin glared at his younger brother.

"Who asked you Brainiac? Stop trying to act like the eldest because I beat you by five minutes. Now go stick your head in some boring book and let me talk to Dave."

Dave looked at Simon.

"Leave your brother alone Simon, and learn how to respect him he is the eldest."

Simon continued to argue.

"Maybe he is the eldest but I am the most responsible one, that is why when you aren't coming home you leave me in charge and he hates it!"

Alvin glared at Simon.

"Will you stop annoying me! I am the one in charge for now on so once again you are wrong now mind your own business. I mean it Simon I am already in a bad mood don't make it worse to the point where I hurt you now go!"

Dave glared at Simon.

"Go to your room Simon and let me talk to your brother I mean it now go."

Simon went up to his room and Dave looked at Alvin.

"I will let you go to Brittany's, Alvin but you better be in by your curfew it is still a school night."

Alvin smiled.

"Yes I know Dave I'll be in by nine. Let me go get my back pack."

He ran up to his room and grabbed his backpack and his phone. Then he exited the house and headed toward Brittany's house. When he got there Brittany let him in and greeted him with a kiss. Miss Miller looked at them both.

"Brittany dear your door stays open when Alvin is in there with you. What time is your curfew dear?"

Alvin responded.

"Nine o'clock Miss Miller."

Miss Miller smiled.

"Then at eight forty-five I'll drive you home so you will be in on time Alvin. I'll call David and tell him I am driving you home."

Alvin smiled.

"Okay Miss Miller and thank you."

Jeanette stood by her door and looked at Brittany.

"Are you going to tell Alvin what happened when you passed the park tonight or hide it from him?"

Brittany gulped.

"Jeanette go in your room and do your homework. Mind your own business missy, you're just as bad as Simon always looking to start with me. Especially after what Miss Miller almost caught you two doing when I came in and she got you both for dinner. So if I was you I would go in my room and mind my own business before I tell Miss Miller on you both! Get the picture."

Jeanette gulped.

"You wouldn't!"

Brittany looked at her with a sly smile.

"Try me and you'll see now go in your room. Oh Miss Miller!"

Jeanette ran in her room quickly as Miss Miller was coming up the stairs.

"Yes Brittany dear why were you calling me?"

Brittany heard Jeanette's door close and responded.

"Oh nothing really, just letting you know after we are done with our homework we will be down for a snack that's all."

Miss Miller nodded.

"Okay dear the cookies are on the table and there is still water in the teapot in case you two want tea. I'll be in my room watching my show."

Brittany smiled as she entered her room with Alvin behind her.

"Okay Miss Miller no problem enjoy your show."

Alvin entered her room and looked around.

"Pink much, and a huge picture of me above your bed. Okay now I know you definitely are infatuated with me. Now about the park what was Jeanette talking about? Brittany answer me please."

She lay on her stomach after she took off her shoes and opened their language arts book.

"I was walking home from Sofia's after rehearsal for the final cut Friday. When Vanessa and her Bad Angels jumped me! Alvin I didn't get hurt, but the fact is that she was really trying to hurt me because I refuse to break up with you! Then one of them came at me with a knife. I put three of them in the hospital but I don't think it's over. Please don't get mad at me for fighting them I had to defend myself."

He brushed back her bangs.

"Britt I am not mad; just glad you are okay babe. Just promise me next time you won't walk home alone again. I don't want you to get hurt because of my ex is still obsessed with me when I don't want anyone but you Brittany. "

Brittany smiled and hugged him.

"I promise I won't walk home alone again Alvin and don't want anyone but you too. Now let's get your assignment done so you don't get kicked off your basketball team okay."

He nodded and joined her on the bed after he took off his sneakers. When he finished his assignment Brittany smiled at him as she rested her head on his stomach. He looked at the clock and turned to her smiling.

"Okay what was my brother Simon and Jeanette doing that has her all shaken up? Am I missing something?"

Brittany smiled.

"Yes you are, you know how we make out sometimes on your bed and I end up only in my bra and only my skirt?"

He looked and smiled at her.

"Yea, but what does my boring brother and your sister have to do with us?"

Brittany continued.

"Well Eleanor told me today when I came home that Jeanette had her bedroom door closed with your brother in the room. Then when Miss Miller came home today she went to get them for dinner and it took Jeanette ten minutes to answer her door and she was fixing her hair too. Also Simon couldn't barely speak at the dinner table. His shirt was on backwards but none of us said anything to him."

Alvin thought for a second.

"Okay but I highly doubt Simon and Jeanette did anything but make out Britt? He was probably shocked on how he was toward your sister. Remember he never kissed a girl like he kisses your sister, well I sure hope he never kissed that two-timing Gillian the way he kisses Jean. You are worried about nothing.

In the meantime, in Jeanette's room she was in shock the way that her and Simon made out tonight after they finished their math homework. She wondered if Simon was angry at her because the way she reacted toward him when he took off his shirt as they made out. She checked her cell and still no call from Simon. She sighed and drifted off to sleep after her shower. As she slept visions of Simon's bare chest in her mind with her hands caressing it as they make out on her bed, and feels Simon's hand by her skirt and then slowly moving her shirt up over her head leaving her laying in her bra and skirt only as the kisses become deeper causing Simon to back off. She wakes up and runs to her bathroom washing her face with cold water shaking her head. 'What is going on with me I am only eleven that is the last thing that should be on my mind. I don't know what came over me. I hope Simon isn't mad at me for tonight?'

Back in Brittany's room Alvin gazes deep into her ice blue eyes and kisses her deeply moving his hands to her skirt and inside her shirt slipping it off her head as he continues to kiss her. Brittany closes her eyes and moves her hands to his shirt sliding it off caressing his chest with her soft hands. Then soft kisses along his chest causing him to sigh closing his eyes.

"Britt we can't your stepmother is across the hall and your door is wide open. Brittany we got to stop before we go further than we want to at such a young age. It's starting to get hot in here I swear Brittany we really have to stop!"

Alvin heard Miss Miller's bedroom door open and jumped off Brittany's bed. Then he put his shirt back on making sure it wasn't inside out. Brittany also jumped up and put her shirt back on fixing her hair as Alvin entered her bathroom washing his face with cold water. Then they both exit Brittany's room and enter the kitchen to have cookies and some ice cold milk to cool themselves both down. Eleanor comes downstairs and looks at them both.

"Well at least Alvin fixed his shirt before he came down. I hope that doesn't happen with me and Theodore, he hasn't even kissed me yet. It's like he's afraid to kiss me when we lay in his bed or mine. "

Brittany looked at Eleanor.

"Ellie he's just cautious. He will when you least expect it I promise. We all know how much Theodore loves you. He left Juliet to be with you just be patient or talk to him about it that's all you have to do. If it is bugging, you that much then bring it up to him when you two walk to cooking class later today. You know he will listen. "

Eleanor smiled as she sat with her elder sister and Alvin at the table eating her cookies and drinking ice cold milk. Miss Miller entered the kitchen.

"You almost ready Alvin dear, it's eight forty-three we are leaving in two minutes."

Alvin finished his cookies and milk, then he headed up to Brittany's room and put everything in his backpack after he put his sneakers on. When he finished he came downstairs and kissed Brittany goodbye before he got in Miss Miller's car. He got to the house two minutes before his curfew and saw Simon in the kitchen waiting up for him. Alvin entered after he thanked Miss Miller and walked over to Simon.

"Come on up to my room, I know what it's all about. Is Dave asleep yet?"

Simon shook his head.

"No, he's in his room watching TV. Wait a minute how did you know?"

Alvin sighed.

"Brittany told me Si. Your one mistake was not calling Jeanette tonight. Now she thinks you're mad at her. When we get in my room tell me exactly what happened?"
(Next chapter we will see what happened with Simon and Jeanette, is Vanessa done bothering Britt read the next chapter and you will see)
