Chapter 7-The Noodle Dance
"Okay, now why did you drag me here?" Simon asked sitting on his bed.
"Hello?" Brittney snapped. "Doesn't it bother you that Alvin and Jeanette are together?"
Simon hung his head and stared down at his feet sadly.
"D-did you know I…like her?" Simon asked softly.
"Yeah…well not until I noticed some of your reactions today," Brittney replied.
"W-what kind of reactions?" Simon asked afraid to hear the answer.
"Let's see;" Brittney began, "your face turned red every time Alvin and Jeanette even looked at each other, you kept shooting glares at Alvin when he wasn't looking, and I think I even saw you crying a bit once."
"I-I wasn't crying!" Simon said in denial, "I-I…I just had something in my eye." Brittney crossed her arms and raised an eyebrow, showing that she didn't believe him. Simon sighed. "Okay," he admitted, "I-I guess I was crying a little, but what does any of this have to do with you?" Brittney gasped; this question had caught her off-guard.
"Oh…um…well," she tried to think of a good lie, "I-I…I just don't want Alvin to go out with my sister. He's too much of a jerk for her." Simon nodded in understanding.
"Well what are we supposed to do?" he asked. "They really like each other." Brittney sat and tried to think of a good plan. Simon sighed.
"I saw this on a show once," Brittney finally said, "let's do the noodle dance until we come up with something!" Simon rolled his eyes.
"Oh please," he said, "that never works."
"Prove it!" Brittney hollered. Simon said as he began to sing and do the noodle dance.
"Noodle, use your noodle
Noodle, do the noodle dance
Solve a problem, it's no strain
Use your noodle that's your brain
Noodle, use your noodle
Noodle, do the noodle dance
There's an answer you can find
Use your noodle, that's your mind
In a bind, just use your mind
Use your noodle!"
"See? I got nothing!" Simon said when he finished the dance.
"That's 'cause you didn't do it right!" Brittney shouted as she began to sing and dance herself.
"Noodle, use your noodle
Noodle, do the noodle dance
Solve a problem, it's no strain
Use your noodle that's your brain
Noodle, use your noodle
Noodle, do the noodle dance
There's an answer you can find
Use your noodle, that's your mind
In a bind, just use your mind
Use your noodle!"
"Ooh!" Brittney said, "I have an idea now!" Simon rolled his eyes knowing that it would be something stupid. Brittney whispered her plan in his ear.
"Ew!" he cried, "I am notgonna do that!"
"Whatever," Brittney said teasingly, "I'm sure Alvin and Jeanettewill be veryhappy together." Simon sighed in defeat.
"Okay," he said reluctantly, "I'm in."
In the basement, the other four chipmunks were playing ping-pong.
"Get it Theodore!" Eleanor cried, but Theodore missed the ball.
"Aw nuts," he said, "Sorry, Ellie."
"Its okay, Theodore," she said reassuringly, "it's just a game." Eleanor picked up the ball and tossed it to Alvin. Alvin paddled it to Theodore, and Theodore hit it to Jeanette, but she missed.
"Oh, poo," she said, "Good job Theodore." She complimented as she went to retrieve the ball.
"Thanks," Theodore replied.
"Kids!" Dave called from the kitchen, "Dinner!"
"Oh boy!" Theodore cried happily as he rushed up the stairs with the others behind him. When they got to the table, Alvin pulled out a chair for Jeanette.
"Thank you," she said as she sat in the chair and Alvin pushed it in for her. Simon and Brittney were heard coming down the stairs laughing. Everyone looked at each other with curious expressions. Simon and Brittney walked into the kitchen holding hands.
"Oh Simon," Brittney said, "You're so funny! I just love you!" She pinched his cheek.
"I love you to…honeybun," he said reluctantly, sounding truthful. Everyone, even Dave, gasped. Simon and Brittney just walked to the table as if they didn't even notice.
