Opening Statement: Chapter 2 everyone, and boy is it a good one, I actually came back up here last minute just to change out what I originally had in place. And as a fair warning... there's some mature themes in this chapter, nothing major though.
Disclaimer: Chapter 1 for full disclaimer, and I also own Luke.
It was lunch hour of the next day, Sandra was eating her lunch in the music room, deciding to do so after she was invited there by her boyfriend Luke... yeah the two had escalated their relationship to the girlfriend/boyfriend stage, and so far Sandra didn't regret a thing, though was confused with her suitor's choice of venues, and started to gesture her question to him, "Why are we here? Not that I don't like the seclusion I'm just curious." Sandra asked, before Luke smiled and kissed her on the lips briefly, "I'm going to practice for the talent show, and I wanted you to watch." Luke replied, before he hopped up onto the stage and hit a button on the stereo, a tune from Maroon 5 playing and making Sandra blush... she understood what Luke wanted, he intended to serenade her, and she was all too thrilled with the prospect and decided to just sit and listen to her boyfriend's voice.
"I'm hurting, baby, I'm broken down,
I need your loving, loving,
I need it now!
When I'm without you,
I'm something weak,
You've got me begging, begging,
I'm on my knees!" Luke sang, Sandra blushing a bit as she smiled her encouragement, Luke winking an eye to her and standing up to walk around the stage a bit, all while continuing with the song.
"I don't wanna be needing your love,
I just wanna be deep in your love,
And it's killing me when you're away, ooh, baby!
'Cause I really don't care where you are,
I just wanna be there where you are,
And I gotta get one little taste!" Luke sang, hopping down from the stage to approach Sandra, her blush deepening as he got closer, until he pressed a brief kiss to her lips. Then he chuckled lightly and resumed to the chorus of the song.
"Your sugar,
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?
I'm right here, 'cause I need,
Little love, a little sympathy!
Yeah, you show me good loving,
Make it alright,
Need a little sweetness, in my life.
Your sugar,
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?" Luke sang, taking Sandra's hand and guiding her up onto the stage, seating her in a prop chair as he continued with the song.
"My broken pieces,
You pick them up,
Don't leave me hanging, hanging,
Come give me some!
When I'm without ya,
I'm so insecure,
You are that one thing, one thing,
I'm living for!" Luke sang, Sandra giggling silently as she tried to hide her blush, though by this point it was red enough to be seen through her facial fur, Luke chuckling a bit before he continued his performance.
"I don't wanna be needing your love,
I just wanna be deep in your love,
And it's killing me when you're away, ooh, baby!
'Cause I really don't care where you are,
I just wanna be there where you are,
And I gotta get one little taste!" Luke continued, once again stepping over and placing a brief kiss to Sandra's lips before once again singing the chorus to his song of choice.
"Your sugar,
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?
I'm right here, 'cause I need,
Little love, a little sympathy!
Yeah, you show me good loving,
Make it alright,
Need a little sweetness, in my life.
Your sugar,
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?" Luke sang, smiling to his voiceless girlfriend and blowing her a kiss, Sandra making a motion to catch it and slip it into her pocket, a silent giggle escaping her lips before Luke continued with the song.
"Yeah, I want that red velvet,
I want that sugar sweet,
Don't let nobody touch it,
Unless that somebody's me!
I gotta be your man,
There ain't no other way,
'Cause girl you're hotter than a, Southern California day!
I don't wanna play no games,
You don't gotta be afraid,
Don't give me all that shy shit,
No make-up on,
Yeah, that's my,
Sugar!
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?
I'm right here, 'cause I need,
Little love, a little sympathy!
So baby, you show me good loving,
Make it alright,
Need a little sweetness, in my life.
Your sugar,
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?" Luke sang, pulling Sandra up and into a bit of a dance, nothing fancy or even all that great, just a fun little dance between two people.
"Sugar!
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?
I'm right here, 'cause I need,
Little love, a little sympathy!
Yeah, you show me good loving,
Make it alright,
Need a little sweetness, in my life.
Your sugar,
Yes, please,
Won't you come and put it down on me?" Luke finished the song, panting a bit from the exertion needed to maintain his notes, Sandra loosing her footing and tumbling onto her suitor, knocking Luke over and causing both to laugh, though only one voice was actually heard.
(Later in the day, Kevin's POV)
Oh GOD! Why did my classmates in gym have to be so freaking hot! I know most are humans but that just means you can see their muscles even easier, and that eventually get's distracting. "Kevin? HELLO! Earth to Kevin... There's a spider on your neck." I heard my sister Amy say, causing my eyes to widen before I yelped and flailed about in a vain attempt to rid myself of the arachnid. Then I clued in and growled, "Amy... you know I HATE spiders!" I said, Amy chuckling before rubbing her neck a bit, "Well, you were zoning out... AGAIN! I wanted to get you to look over there!" Amy replied, pointing over to the left of me. I followed her gaze and gasped at what I saw, there right on the other side of the gym was a beauty of a squirrel, his body was covered in silvery grey fur, with a white furred belly. He had the most gorgeous set of eyes I've ever seen on anyone, let alone a fellow rodent, each a shimmering jade green color similar to sea water, and he was dressed in a very nice outfit, a golden yellow t-shirt with a deep violet over shirt.
For a while I simply took this sight in, until I caught the sound of music, at first thinking that I was hearing things until I glanced around and found Amy with her phone out, playing the song "I Wanna Know What Love Is" from it, causing me to growl softly, "What? Just trying to set the mood." Amy said, gaining herself a roll of my blue eyes before I took off towards this new guy, a good foot away before I manages to trip over my own feet and fall onto him, loosing a yelp from his throat as my face ended up buried in his shirt covered chest. "WHOA! Hey watch where you're... going..." the guy said, though his words trailed off upon seeing me, and with that I knew he at least found me distracting, causing me to blush a bit before I stood up, "S-Sorry about that, I wanted to properly introduce myself but... I tripped." I explained, the squirrel chuckling before he stood up and held out a hand to me, "Well, it's fine I guess... what's your name cutie?" he asked me, nearly making me faint with his words alone, "K-Kevin, Kevin Seville..." I replied, able to feel my cheeks burning with a blush, in turn bringing a giggle from this new male, "I'm Danny, and as you may be able to tell, I am a homosexual... judging by your blush I'm gonna guess that you are too." Danny said, causing me to giggle and grab hold of my tail, twisting it around my fingers a bit as a coping mechanism, "Y-Yeah, how could you tell?" I asked, Danny leaning close to me and lightly sniffing my fur, "You use lavender scented shampoo... only time I've ever heard of guys, like us or humans alike, using that was when they either wanted to impress some girl, ran out of their usual stuff and used what was close at hand, or they were like us." Danny explained, causing me to let out a soft laugh before gazing up into his eyes, those jade green orbs of his practically looking into my very soul, and for a moment I forgot where I was and leaning toward him, only for the bell to ring and make us both jump in surprise, unfortunately causing our heads to knock together rather painfully.
"Ow... Danny are you okay?" I asked, Danny rubbing his head and chuckling a bit, "I'm fine... Mom always said I had a head like a rock." Danny replied, bringing a light giggle from my lips as I held out my hand to help Danny up.
(after school, Regular POV)
Sandra, along with the rest of her siblings, were just lounging about on the front steps of the school building, Luke of course was sitting next to Sandra, and the two were conversing with one another about their day, the sight causing Kendra to grumble to herself, this not going unnoticed by her younger sister Jade, "Kendra? Is something wrong?" Jade asked, Kendra sighing and shaking her head, "No... not really," Kendra replied, Jade adjusting her glasses a bit before placing her right hand on her older sister's shoulder, "Kendra, I know you and Sandra were close... and despite her spending nearly every moment with her boyfriend, this is just a phase in the relationship, eventually they will become a bit more independent of each other-"
"Are you trying to say that I'm jealous... of Luke?" Kendra asked, Jade chuckling a bit before letting out a sigh, "I never said that... but at the same time, it's fairly obvious that you are envious of Luke's current bond with our older sister... face it Kendra, she's a bit more grown up than we are... even if we all have the same birthday." Jade explained, Kendra rolling her hazel eyes before shaking her head a bit. Meanwhile, Sandra was telling Luke about herself, things she hadn't mentioned yet to him anyway, "I can actually play the ukelele fairly well, I was taught how by my Uncle Simon." Sandra explained, Luke smiling a bit at this, "Really? What other secrets have you been hiding?" Luke asked playfully, Sandra shifting her eyes around before she shot her suitor a devilish grin, her hands gesturing her message, "I can do something else too... but to see that you gotta earn it." Sandra replied, ending with a wink of her eye and a smile, Luke blushing upon comprehending what she meant.
"Oh... well that must be very interesting for you... holding that over my head," Luke said, before he leaned in and stole a kiss, Sandra's eyes going a bit wide before she nearly melted into the kiss, had she a voice to use she'd purr into the embrace, but settled for wagging her tail happily behind her. When the two love munks pulled out of the kiss, they were greeted by the sight of Sandra's mother, Brittany's arms crossed across her chest and her right foot tapping the ground. "Are you two done? If so then come on, You have a doctor's appointment Sandra remember?" Brittany said, Sandra nodding and then placing a quick kiss to her boyfriend's cheek, signing a quick message to him, "I'll be home around 5:30, okay?" Sandra explained, Luke nodding his head and smiling, "Sure thing... Sugar." Luke replied, Sandra giggling silently before running off to the car, Brittany raising an eyebrow before just getting into the car herself.
(Doctor's office, Sandra's POV)
I just can't stand the doctor's office... not that I don't appreciate them keeping me and my siblings healthy, it's just that every time we have these appointments we all get a needle of some sort. I wasn't afraid of them mind you, but that didn't make the process any easier to endure. "Okay Sandra, open your mouth and say- or rather just open your mouth please." the doctor said, causing me to roll my eyes and open my mouth wide, allowing him to look into my throat with a small light, "Well, still no vocal cords, but you do have some sort of residue at the back of your throat," the doctor said, causing my eyes to bug out and shift around, glad that all of us took turns in the office, but at the same time regretting my mother being right there, the look on her face one of frustrated annoyance, "Sandra... I'm going to ask you a question, and for your sake you better answer honestly... have you and Luke gotten... intimate as of recently?" Brittany asked, causing me to silently groan and nod, then sign out my proper response, "Luke sang for me Mom... I felt the need to return the favor." I replied, Mom's eyes practically bursting into blue flames before she collected herself, her next words coming through clenched teeth, "Sandra... I thought I told you-" I didn't let her finish, wanting to explain myself completely, "We didn't mate Mom... I used my mouth on him... sorry." I explained, this causing my mom's eyes to cool off a bit, but she still seemed rather pissed... and to be fair I guess I did go against her wishes, "You could have caught a disease like that-"
"Actually, animals like yourselves don't have very many STD's not like a human does anyway," the doctor cut in, nearly causing me to burst into silent laughter, if not for the revelation of total safety, than for the look on my mother's face, her blue eyes glaring at the doctor before doing that "cut it out" gesture with her hand across her neck, "Not helping here! Anyway what I'm saying is that... you know what, never mind. You seem to know what you're doing so you can deal with the consequences." Mom said, causing me some confusion before I suddenly felt ill, rushing for the nearest sink in the office and puking up what I had swallowed from Luke... what? I don't like wasting anything alright!
After I was finished with that, I washed out my mouth and glanced to my mother, an amused look on her face before she spoke, "See, that's what I'm talking about." Mom said almost mockingly, even as I spat out the wash water from my mouth and then blew a raspberry at her.
(in the waiting room, regular POV)
Sandra walked out of the office, rubbing her arm a bit as she had gotten her shot, Kevin groaning before he got up and walked out and into the office with his mother. Kendra noticed an almost embarrassed look on her older sister's face, and decided to ask about it, "Sandy? What's wrong? You look- you look like you just puked your guts up, what happened in there?" Kendra asked, Sandra blushing a bit before gesturing her response, "Luke sang for me... and I paid him back my giving him what humans call a "blow job"... and apparently I have trouble stomaching the results." Sandra replied, Kendra's eyes widening at what her sister had just said, "Wait, you gave your boyfriend head already... good lord you work fast," Kendra said, Sandra giving her younger sister an annoyed look before flipping the middle finger at her, Kendra letting out a soft laugh and pulling Sandra into a hug, "I love you too sis," she said, as Kevin came out and grumbled to himself, "Ow... why do those hurt all the time? Kendra your turn!" Kevin said, Kendra sighing and dashing into the office.
(back at home)
A little later, when everyone was finally home, Sandra went to her room to lay down, simply resting until she heard something, "What the-" Sandra immediately covered her mouth, memories from the past flooding back, as an all too familiar growl was heard, "I told you I'd return!" the Nightmare hissed, before Sandra sighed and raised her hand, "Still not afraid of you, so go away." she said, the Nightmare stomping in front of her and growling a bit, before it let out a fur ruffling roar into the hazel eyed chipette's face, Sandra remaining unfazed by this and silently chuckling, "Is that the best you can do? You'd think after a year you'd up your game a little... you're down right adorable right now," Sandra taunted, the Nightmare blinking before letting out a hissing sigh, "Fuck... you have grown up... but I'm here for a reason, something in your head is a wee bit insecure... does it involve that new guy Luke?" the Nightmare asked, Sandra trying not to react but unfortunately couldn't help the soft whimper that escaped her lips, the Nightmare hissing a bit before it lunged for Sandra, only for her to throw her fist up and send it flying into a wall, gesturing her response, "I'm not in the mood right now to try and mess with... SO FUCK OFF!" Sandra signed, the Nightmare groaning a bit before it got up and shook it's head, "Not a nice way to treat your subconscious you voiceless reject!" the Nightmare growled, before it yelped at being shifted into a tiny little mouse, Sandra silently chuckling from the bed, "As I said, don't fuck with me right now, I'm aware of being in a dream right now, and I could really use some stress relief right now!" Sandra said, the Nightmare crossing it's arms and grumbling to itself, "Isn't that what masturbation is for? Not your subconscious mind!" the Nightmare said to itself, before Sandra sighed and laid herself on the bed, immediately waking up from her dream and sighing silently to herself.
Then she considered what her nightmare beast had said, glancing around and slowly reaching between her legs, shivering as she found her pleasure buzzer and let out a silent moan, really getting into it when she heard the door opening, "Sandy, your mother told me-" Alvin's voice cut off upon seeing his daughter with her hand between her legs, her hazel eyes wide at having been interrupted during a bit of self exploration, Alvin's eyes screwing shut before he turned away and sighed, "Why am I the ONLY ONE who ever walks in on these things!? Anyway your mother told me a bit of new info regarding you and Luke's relationship... you work fast." Alvin said, all while Sandra got herself cleaned up and presentable behind him, knocking on her night stand to signal it was safe to look, then gesturing to Alvin her response, "Yeah... he sang for me, how was I supposed to-"
"You misunderstand, I'm not mad at you... nor am I disappointed, I'm just upset that you broke your promise to your mother... but at the same time, I'm proud you didn't do anything too drastic. Good on you for reading between the lines," Alvin said, Sandra giving her father a confused look before gesturing her enquiry, "Wait, you're not mad at me?" she asked, Alvin shaking his head and chuckling, "I know, I should be, I should be pissed and telling you that you're grounded, but then I realized that you're just taking after me... let me explain, when your uncles and I first moved in here, I would usually drive your Grandpa Dave crazy, and you apparently got the crazy gene from me... or something, my point is I understand why you did what you did." Alvin explained, Sandra smiling a bit until she saw Alvin's expression change, "But if you give yourself to Luke anytime soon, you'd better hope he got mine and your mother's blessing... otherwise you may find yourself in a relationship with another girl." Alvin said, Sandra's eyes widening before she put on a face of pure rage, Alvin actually backing up a bit, he's seen that face before on his wife... and to be honest it wasn't as terrifying as it was on Sandra, then he saw her hands going, nearly a blur with how fast she was signing, "Hurt Luke in anyway Dad, and I'll make YOU into a GIRL!" Sandra practically screamed, Alvin chuckling before backing out of her room, "Well, you look like you need to relax, so I'll leave and let you get back to it... and tell Luke that you're not in the mood to see him- OW!" Alvin yelped, as Sandra rushed out of her room, accidentally slamming the door into her father's nose and once more tackling Luke to the ground, nuzzling her face into his shoulder like a cat with a catnip toy.
There was another knock to the door, though before Dave could answer it, a grey furred squirrel hopped through the cat door and looked around, "Hey, Kevin... KEEEEVIIIIN!" Danny shouted, the chipmunk in question rushing out and skidding to a stop before the silver furred squirrel, "Danny! What are you doing here? Not that you're not welcome but-" "Kevin? Who's this?" Brittany asked, Danny glancing around and squealing like a schoolgirl before rushing over, "OH MY GOSH, I love your hair... sorry I'm a huge fan of The Chipettes, I'm Danny... Kevin's gay friend." Danny said, Brittany raising an eyebrow and glancing to Kevin, her eldest son blushing a bit before Brittany smiled, "Kevin never told me he met a guy... and are you sure it's gay friend or boyfriend?" Brittany asked, Danny grinning a bit while Kevin blushed, before Danny turned and smiled to Kevin, "I'm actually here to invite you to perform with me in the talent show, I want to do a duet but I'm missing my second half." Danny explained, Kevin giggling a bit before thinking it over, "Hmm... sure, what's the song? I may know it already." Kevin replied, Danny walking over and whispering into Kevin's ear, a smile spreading across the auburn furred chipmunk before he took Danny's hand and guided him to Dave's music room.
Brittany decided to follow, if for nothing else than for curiosity of what the two were going to sing, until she heard a familiar old time jazzy tune, smiling as she watched from the doorway.
Kevin: Danny and Kevin everybody!
Danny: What? Why are you talking like that?
Kevin: I dunno, but you can't stop me Danny!
Danny: Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall.
Kevin: Like the seashore clings to the sea.
Danny: Like you'll never get rid of your shadow.
Kevin: You'll never get rid of me!
Danny & Kevin: Let all the others fight and fuss,
Whatever happens... we've got us!
Brittany was impressed, it seemed that, outside of Sandra for obvious reasons, whenever a rodent could talk they could also sing, and boy did Danny have a great voice for it... so did Kevin but Brittany was more impressed with the new boy that caught Kevin's eye.
Danny: Me and my shadow,
Kevin: We're closer than pages that stick in a book,
We're closer than ripples that flow in a brook,
Danny: Strolling down the avenue.
Kevin: Wherever you find him, you'll find me just look,
Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza.
Me, and my shadow!
Danny: We're closer than smog is to all of L.A.
We're closer than Kevin to confessing he's gay?
Danny & Kevin: Not a soul can bust this team in two,
We stick together like glue!
Brittany watched her son and his boyfriend's performance, smiling warmly at the fact that Kevin had found a kindred spirit in the school. Then tried to hold in her laughter upon hearing the next part of the song.
Kevin: And when it's sleeping time.
Danny: That's when we rise.
Kevin: We start to swing!
Danny: Ooh, you think you're so jazzy.
Kevin: *lightly laughing* Our clocks don't chime!
Danny: What a surprise.
Danny & Kevin: They ring-a-ding-ding!
Happy New Year!
Alvin had heard the song and decided to find it's source, Brittany shushing him as the two guys in the room moved onto the next section of the song. Alvin was happy, admittedly he'd felt a little disappointed at the fact his eldest son was gay, but he wasn't about to discourage any of his children in their life choices, and if Kevin felt the same for this Danny guy as Sandra did for Luke, he wasn't about to make the same mistake twice and scare his son's suitor away.
Kevin: Me and my shadow.
Danny: And now to repeat what I said at the start,
They'll need a large crowbar to break us apart,
Danny & Kevin: We're alone, but far from blue!
Kevin: Before we get finished we'll make the town roar!
Danny: We'll hit a few late spots, and then a few more!
Danny & Kevin: We'll start off at Stringy's and maybe Groucho's,
Life is gonna be a wow-wow-whee!
For my shadow and me!
This part both Alvin and Brittany had to keep from laughing, they knew what was next, and they didn't want to reveal that both Kevin and Danny had an audience of two. For a while Danny and Kevin simply laughed together, genuine laughter though not just fake ones laughs for the song.
Danny: Can we do that again?
Kevin: No, I'm too tired.
Danny: Oh please Kevin?
Kevin: No, I'm swung out.
Danny: Oh come on now... I-I'll give you some money.
Kevin: I don't need money.
Danny: How about some cheese balls?
Kevin: I'm not hungry.
Danny: *glances around* I won't tell anybody you're gay.
Kevin: *laughing* Dude! We're both gay you dork!
At this point the jazz tune picked back up, the two guys falling back into the last bit of the song again, Alvin and Brittany feeling a sense of pride at their child and his suitor's talent in singing.
Danny: Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar!
Kevin: We'll hit all the late spots, and then a few more!
Danny & Kevin: We'll start off at Stringy's and maybe Groucho's,
Life is gonna be a wow-wow-whee!
For my shadow and me!
Danny then surprised everyone present, pulling Kevin into a full on lip to lip kiss, Kevin's eyes shooting wide for a moment before he simply let out a gentle purr and kissed back, at this point Alvin letting out a cough, causing both parties of the kiss to jump in surprise and like earlier in school konk their heads together, both falling to their rumps and groaning on the floor. "Bravo! I'd give that performance a ticket to Hollywood if I were still judging for American Idol." Brittany said, Kevin blushing a bit, as well as Danny, "H-How long were you watching?" Danny asked, Alvin chuckling and holding a hand out to both boys, helping them to their feet, "Brittany was here for the whole thing, I came around when "ring-a-ding-ding" was said." Alvin replied, Kevin rolling his blue eyes and placing a kiss to Danny's cheek, "I guess that makes our kinship official?" Kevin said, Danny smiling and wrapping an arm around Kevin's shoulders, "Of course it does, otherwise I'd not have pulled that "Gone with the Wind" routine with you earlier." Danny replied, Alvin and Brittany leaving the two alone for a while.
And that's the end of the chapter! Try to imagine that bit there with that old cartoon ending theme... okay good, anyway I hope you enjoyed that, the first chapter to feature two full songs in it! And good God was it a hassle, let me know in the review box what you think, and how you'd change it to make it better, I am always open to constructive criticism, but as always outright flaming will be ignored. Anywho, I've been TimberWolf, and this chapter is over, PEACE!
And now, a Preview of the next set of Rules:
(warning: the following has to be the longest random moment skit I've ever typed out, and in order to fully understand it, one must look up the Abbott and Costello bit "7 into 28")
*Simon working in the basement when Michael rushes in with a grin on his face*
Michael: Hey, did you know that seven goes into twenty-eight, thirteen times?
Simon: What? No it doesn't- THAT MAKES NO SENSE!
Michael: Wanna bet on it? Fifty dollars says I can prove that seven goes into twenty-eight, thirteen times.
*Simon considers it and then chuckles*
Simon: You're on!
*Michael then puts the appropriate equation on the board*
Michael: Okay first, seven into two... it doesn't go there, so we're going to take that two away, and just hold it off to the side, then seven into eight... once, so I put down a one over here. Now I'm going to take the seven, and drop it right here.
*Michael then drops the seven under the eight on the equation, and draws a line under it*
Michael: Now, seven from eight is one, and now we're going to take that two, and drop it right next to the one, now seven into twenty-one... three, place that up here, and we got thirteen. Seven into twenty-eight is thirteen.
*Simon just looked flabbergasted and shakes his head*
Simon: Okay, there's a better way to prove this, and that's with multiplication.
*Michael chuckles and erases the white board, writing out the equation for thirteen times seven*
Michael: Okay, so seven times three is twenty-one.
Simon: Right.
Michael: Seven times one is seven.
*at this point, in the answer box, Michael has placed the twenty-one first, with the seven below it, then drew another line under that*
Michael: Now, one and seven is eight, and two to carry... twenty-eight.
*Simon is once again shocked and shakes his head*
Simon: Okay, addition should definitely clear things up.
Michael: *grins* you want me to put thirteen up on the board seven times and add it all up?
Simon: Yes... actually I'll do the adding.
*Michael nods and draws out the equation, then hands the marker to his uncle*
Simon: Okay... three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen, eighteen, twenty-one-
*Michael suddenly grabs the marker and counts the ones into the whole number*
Michael: twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven... twenty-eight!
*Simon is speechless and starts to scratch his head, before rolling his eyes and pulling a fifty dollar bill out of his pocket*
Simon: You win.
Michael: Damn right I win.
