Chapter 10-Too Far

Before bed, the Chipmunks and Chipettes decided to watch a movie and sleep in the living room. They all ran upstairs to get their sleeping bags. Simon noticed Jeanette struggling to carry her sleeping bag; it was kinda big and awkward for her.

"Here, I'll help you," he said as he took the purple sleeping bag and started to carry it toward the living room. Jeanette quickly walked to the living room.

"Carry my sleeping bag for me to, will ya baby?" Brittney said as she threw her sleeping bag at Simon. He glared at her as he reluctantly carried three sleeping bags to the living room, struggling.

"Simon," Jeanette said when Simon walked in the living room, "you didn't have to carry mine to. Had I known you were already carrying Brittney's I would've…"

"Its okay," Simon said, "it was no trouble at all." He smiled at her reassuringly. She couldn't help but to smile back as if something had forced her to and she couldn't stop it.

"Oh no," she thought to herself, "could this mean I'm falling for Simon again? Oh I can't do that, I have …"

"Jeanette," Alvin's voice interrupted her thoughts, "what movie do you wanna watch? I want you to decide." Jeanette gasped; Alvin never wanted someone else to pick the movie.

"Hold it!" Brittney snapped. "What makes you think you get to decide who picks the movie?"

"Jeanette never gets a say in anything!" Alvin defended. "We should let her pick for once."

"I hate to admit it," Simon said, "but I have to agree with Alvin…for the first time in my life."

"You stay out of this!" Brittney shouted. "You worthless piece of…poop!"

"Don't talk to my brother like that!" Alvin hollered. "He's my worthless piece of poop! Also, he was just saying what he thinks!"

"I don't give a flying crap what he thinks!" Brittney screamed.

"How could you say that about your boyfriend?!" Alvin shouted.

"He's not my…I mean…that's none of your business!" Brittney shouted. "I wanna pick the movie, Jeanette will just pick something boring! Like…uh…"

"Boring?!" Jeanette cried offended. "I will not! You're being so unfair, Brittney!"

"I'm being unfair?! Alvin's…."

"Stop it!" Eleanor shouted. "Knock it off you three! I have an idea, why don't we let Theodore decide who he thinks should pick the movie?"

"Why Theodore?" Brittney spat.

"Because Theodore is the fairest person here," Eleanor replied.

"Okay," Brittney replied reluctantly.

"Who would you like to pick the movie Theodore? Brittney or Jeanette?" Eleanor asked.

"Uh…" Theodore said nervously and hesitantly, "w-well…"

"There's no pressure, Theodore," Jeanette said comfortingly.

"I-I want…Jeanette to pick the movie," Theodore said. Brittney sighed and rolled her eyes as she sat down on her sleeping bag. Jeanette smiled from ear to ear; she liked this kind of attention. She liked to be noticed by someone other than her sisters. Alvin and Simon both smiled when they saw her smile. One major thing the two had in common was that they loved to see Jeanette happy.

"What are you smiling about?" Brittney snapped at Simon. "You're supposed to be on my side, remember?"

"I'll take whoever's side I want," Simon snapped back calmly, "you don't own me, you know." She grabbed his shoulder and pulled his ear toward her lips.

"I own you until I…err…we get what we want," She whispered. Simon sighed and nodded reluctantly.

"There has to be another way," he thought to himself, "this is pure torture!"

"Ooh!" Jeanette screeched. "I wanna watch Ice Age!"

"Good choice," Alvin complimented as he put the movie in the DVD player and put it on play.

"I just know something bad is gonna happen to that squirrel," Jeanette thought to herself when the movie got to the part where it was raining and the squirrel climbed on top of a pole. Suddenly, the squirrel got struck by lightening, and everyone started laughing. "I knew it."

Simon felt someone shaking him in his sleep.

"Simon," Brittney whispered, "Get up." Simon opened his eyes and rolled over.

"What do you want?" he snapped.

"I want…sex," Brittney replied.

"What?!" Simon said as he sat up. Brittney rolled her eyes.

"Don't tell me Dave hasn't had the 'talk' with you…"

"Yes, yes, I know what sex is," Simon interrupted, "but we're way too young! Besides, how would that help our situation?" Brittney crossed her arms.

"How much do you like Jeanette?" she asked in a smart tone.

"More than you'll ever know," Simon replied, "but…doing it with you won't make her like me, it'll get me in a lot of trouble and she'll just think I'm a sick pervert."

"Would you do it if I was Jeanette?" Brittney spat.

"No," Simon replied, "not even if you were the hottest girl on earth! Well…to me that is Jeanette, so no. I'm not stupid, Brittney. Heck, Alvin's not even that stupid." Brittney glared at him. "Brittney, this isn't working. You're doing this COMPLETELY wrong."

"Okay, Einstein," she said in a smart tone, "tell me how you think we should deal with this." Simon leaned over and began to whisper his idea to Brittney.

Clearly, Britt doesn't understand the whole…well you know, the whole "adult thing". lol. Please review!!
