Spring is in the Air

Ch4

"Spring Break Kickoff pt3"

In St. Augustine Theodore sighed and listened as Simon and Jeanette planned their activity for the day and shook his head.

"Ellie can you believe this we are on vacation and all they can think of is boring things to do. Does it ever fail? Why didn't Alvin ask us to join him and Brittany this is just boring."

Eleanor looked.

"Because they barely spend time alone Teddy. I mean face it we spend a lot more time together than they do. Why don't we go ask Dave and Ms. Miller if we can skip the museum and lay out on the beach? What do you say; unless you rather sit and be bored out of your mind on another trip with those 2?"

He sighed and felt Eleanor pull his arm.

"Ok I'm coming. I'm telling you they're going to say no. Ok fine I'll try but no promises."

He entered Dave's hotel room and Dave looked up from his newspaper.

"Yes Theodore can I help you?"

He sighed.

"Is it possible for Ellie and me to umm skip a trip with Simon and Jeanie today and go lay out on the beach? I mean Dave yes he's my older brother but I'm 16 and not a child and definitely not interested in another boring trip. Oh please Dave."

Dave looked and smiled.

"Very well Theodore just go tell Simon so he doesn't think you disappeared on them. Here are the keys to the other rental car drive safely son…and check in. Have fun you two. Oh Theodore do you need any money?"

He thought for a minute.

"Just $20 extra for gas; but that's all. Oh thank you Dave see you in a few hours. Yes I know I'll check in."

Theodore took the keys and exited Dave's room where Ellie stood waiting.

"Well he said it was alright. Let's go tell McBorington. He also gave me the keys to his rental car."

She smiled and followed Theodore to where Simon and Jeanette were still talking and he looked.

"Oh Simon excuse me please. Ellie and I are going to lie out on the beach instead of going with you and Jeanie. You know so you and Jeanette can spend some time alone without us tagging along. Just thought I'd let you know so you didn't think I disappeared."

Simon smiled and sighed with relief.

"OK Theo no problem just drive safely we're not in California we're in Florida. See you 2 later bye now."

Jeanette smiled at Simon.

"Oh finally we can spend time alone without them tagging along and complaining."

Simon smiled.

"Yes I know now I know how Alvin feels and can understand why he asked Dave to let them go on a separate vacation than us. Well shall we?"

He took Jeanette's hand and they walked out to the car. Then he opened the door for her on the passenger side and she got in. Then he carefully pulled out and drove toward the museum as she rested her head on his shoulder.

In the meantime Theodore waited on the bed as Eleanor got her bathing suit on and sighed staring at the huge sweat stain where he slept last night and shook his head. Then he dialed Alvin's cell.

'Come on bro pick up please. I need advice.'

Back in Miami Alvin saw his cell flashing and clicked the light on by his side of the bed and checked his caller id as Brittany still slept soundly.

'Yes Theo what is it? Man you woke me up its only 7:30am. Why are you freaking out because of a sweat stain on the bed? I told you a million times its part of our changes. No you're not too young to have those feelings we're chipmunks bro and start mating at 1. I can't help you with that you have to talk to Eleanor and explain instead of avoiding her.'

Theo sighed.

'I'm not avoiding her Alvin she is avoiding me. She left a huge gap between us last night when I tried to kiss her goodnight. I just don't know what is going on with her. Now she said she wants to lie out on the beach instead of being with Simon and Jeanette. You know how it is on the beach. Even with you; when you're on the beach you end up making out with Brittany on the towel. We haven't even French kissed yet. It's like she's afraid of me or something.'

Eleanor exited the bathroom and overheard the conversation Theodore was having with Alvin and stayed hidden. Theodore looked up and shook his head still talking.

'She wants affection and I'm showing it now and she's avoiding me. It's just hopeless. What am I supposed to do?'

Alvin looked where Brittany was still asleep.

'Theo calm down maybe she's afraid that if you kiss like that you'll end up on the bed. Theo come on now she didn't stop loving you now you're acting ridiculous. I told you to talk to her and let her know how the way she's acting is making you feel. Theodore listen to yourself. Eleanor loves nobody else but you and is just a little nervous it's normal. Theo pull yourself together and talk to your girlfriend and stop thinking like that. I mean it…Theodore.'

He sighed.

'Fine Alvin I'll try and talk to her. Thanks for listening I tried to talk to Simon and he ignored me like usual. Maybe you are right especially the way the girls speak on the squad maybe that's why she's acting the way she is. Ok I'll let you go now. Sorry for waking you up and have fun. Theodore out.'

Alvin sighed.

'You're welcome Theo that's what elder brothers are for. See you after Spring Break bye now. Alvin out.'

He hung up his cell and shut the light off and drifted back off to sleep.

Eleanor saw Theodore and smiled. Then she sat on the bed and watched as Theodore entered the bathroom to get his swim trunks on. Then she packed their beach bag and went in her suitcase to find the sun block. She found it and put it under their towels and dry clothes so they could go out for dinner after the beach. Theodore exited the bathroom and saw Eleanor packing the beach bag. Then he grabbed her waist and kissed her on the neck.

She giggled.

"Theo stop that it tickles. What are you up to? Ok I'm sorry for acting the way I have. I'm just nervous the last time we shared a room we were just friends and now we're boyfriend and girlfriend. It's just my feelings for you have suddenly changed and not in a bad way either."

He smiled slyly.

"Oh really changed in what way exactly? I'm listening sweetheart."

She sighed.

"The same way yours have changed toward me causing you to sweat at night when I sleep next to you. But we haven't even French kissed yet that's why I was afraid to tell you how I've been feeling lately. Oh Theo can you ever forgive me I'm so sorry. I could never stop loving you; you're my everything."

He smiled and kissed her on the cheek.

"So are you my everything Ellie. I'm just glad we had this conversation my brother was right. So shall we get to the beach or would you rather stay in?"

She shook her head and took his hand as he grabbed their beach bag. Then he locked their hotel room door and they headed to Dave's rental car. He put the bag in the trunk and opened the passenger side for Eleanor. Then he pulled out carefully and drove toward the beach. As he drove Eleanor played with the radio and their latest song came on and she smiled as she rested her head on him. Then she put her hand on his lap and he held it smiling.

"I love you so much Eleanor that I just can't find the words to tell you how much. Well here we are the beach. Let me find a spot to park the car. "

He parked the car and took her hand. Then he took the beach bag from the trunk and put the alarm on. They found a spot and he put the towel down and put the umbrella up. Then he lay on his back with his shades on and she looked.

"Aren't you going to put some sun block on? The sun is brutal."

He smiled up at her.

"I already put some on before we left. But I see somebody else who needs to put some on before she gets burnt. Here Ellie let me put it on for you."

She smiled and sat down as he sat up and put the sun block on his hands and rubbed it into her soft skin. She sighed.

"Oh Theo you have firm hands. You really must be working out; that feels so nice. Thank you I'm going in the water. Are you going to join me or no?"

He took off his shirt and ran after Eleanor as she ran toward the water and grabbed her from behind and threw her in the water causing her to laugh.

"Oh no you didn't just do that! You're very sneaky but you're all mine. I can be sneaky to."

He swam away and she swam after him and grabbed him dunking him under and he laughed as she smiled at him.

"Yes you can be sneaky to. I can see that; but I'm more sneaky than you."

Juliet swam by them and he slanted his eyes in anger as she laughed.

"Oh my you must be desperate dating that chubby little snob. No where near as pretty as I am. Too bad you lucked out and I dumped you Theeble."

He looked and grabbed Eleanor by the waist saying.

"You're not pretty either and my name is Theodore not Theeble! Learn how to pronounce people's names will you! Any way I'm glad you dumped me; what would I care anyway I have Eleanor and am happy now. At least she's prettier than you and doesn't use me to get to my stupid older brother Alvin! Which by the way he loves no body else but Eleanor's sister Brittany! So do me a favor and leave me alone! I'm on vacation with my girl!"

Juliet laughed and tripped Eleanor almost making her lose her balance but Theodore caught her.

Eleanor's face turned red.

"Ooh I hate that little blonde baby! Let me at her I'll teach her a lesson she'll never forget! She is messing with the wrong one and needs to be taught a lesson!"

Theodore grabbed her.

"Let her go she's not worth it for you to waste your strength on her. Ellie you have me why should you want to fight a loser like that and mess up our vacation hmm."

She sighed and wrapped her arms around him.

"Yes you are right but I'm like my sister and hate when other girls mess with you. It's so peaceful out here. I'm so glad we are able to go somewhere without being bored out of our minds. Can we go lay out in the sun now I need a tan and am also hungry."

Theodore laughed.

"Sure come on then you go lay down I'll go get our food."

She smiled as they headed back to their towel and he dried off. He grabbed his wallet and she put her shades on and lay back reading her Twilight book.

"Don't be too long Teddy. I'll be reading until you come back. You remind me so much of Edward it's not even funny."

He laughed.

"Ok if you say so. I won't be too long don't miss me too much!"

He headed to the snack bar and ordered their food. Then he sat down and waited until the food was ready. He sipped his root beer and looked at the walls sighing. Their food was ready and he grabbed it after he paid for it.

"Thank you again and have a nice day Mr. Seville. It's so nice of a rock star to finally come to this little town of Florida nobody seems interested in."

Theodore smiled.

"You're welcome and thank you again. Just don't say it to loud I don't need to get mobbed while I'm on vacation and spend the rest in a hospital. Besides my girl is waiting for me back on the beach. Bye."

He walked back over to where Eleanor was waiting and she sat up and helped him with the food after she put her book mark in her book and put it down.

"Oh thank you Teddy. What is it with you and Alvin with the root beer? Do you drink anything else?"

He laughed.

"Yes we do but I was in the mood for root beer and got you lemonade. I also got both of us a bottle of water. You're welcome that's what boyfriends are for."

She smiled and looked at him.

"Yes and mine is the best one to. I love you so much my Teddy bear."

They ate their lunch in silence and then after they were done eating he threw out their garbage and put his shades back on and lay back watching as Eleanor read her book in silence.

Back at the museum Jeanette smiled as Simon held her waist while they looked at the exhibits. He smiled ad kissed her on the cheek.

"So what do you want to do next? Whatever you want to do we can I won't mind at all."

She smiled and sighed.

"I don't really know. I mean we've been to almost all the museums here and I don't want to bother Ellie and Theo they're on the beach. I'm out of ideas."

He thought for a second.

"Hmm maybe we can go to the zoo and then get a bite to eat. If you're up to it that is?"

She smiled and nodded her head.

"Sure the zoo sounds fun."

He took her hand and they got back in the car as he drove toward the zoo. Then he looked at his watch.

"Oh let me check in with my father. I'm going to let him know we're going to the zoo."

She smiled and rested her head on him as he drove toward the zoo playing with the radio. He picked up his cell and called Dave.

'Hey Dave just checking in with you. Yes it was peaceful without Theodore and Eleanor. We're heading to the zoo. Ok Dave talk to you later also make sure you tell Ms. Miller Jeanie left her cell at our room cause it's dead. Ok bye Dave. Simon out.'

Back in Miami Brittany and Alvin were at TY Park in the swim lagoon. He sat on the chair and put his shades on catching some rays. Brittany looked.

"Are you going to lie there all day? Alvin don't you want to go swimming with me? Come on the water is just right and our session at Castaway Island isn't for another 30 minutes."

Alvin laughed.

"I just got done eating nachos I'll go in later go in and enjoy yourself. Brittany stop pulling on me I'm going to fall. Brittany I said stop!"

She walked away and dived in and swam around in 5feet when a guy was flirting with her.

"Hey there Hot Stuff you're a great swimmer. You remind me of the hot lead singer of The Chipettes! I don't think I've seen you around here before?"

She looked and sighed.

"No you haven't I'm on vacation from California. Oh no you must have me mistaken for somebody else Brittany Miller wouldn't be here in the open like this. My friends in school also tell me I look just like her. What are you looking at?"

He stared at her neck and saw the chain with the A and looked suspiciously.

"If you're not Brittany then why do you have a necklace like she does with that A on it? You have her eyes, her body and hot looks!"

She sighed as she did a back stroke.

"Oh because my boyfriend's name also starts with an A like hers but my man's name is Albert. We're on vacation and happen to be close friends of Brittany and Alvin's we go to the same school. They are actually down to earth when you get to know them. Actually all 6 of them are really cool. Not so conceited as people make them seem. Can you excuse me for a minute?"

She swam away and went back to where Alvin was still lying down.

"Alvin will you please come in there's a guy hitting on me. He thinks I'm Brittany Miller but I told him that I'm not; just a close friend of hers and Alvin's. Oh if he asks what your name is tell him Albert."

He looked.

"Albert are you serious? Where did you come up with a name like that? Couldn't you just say Al? What am I going to do with you Britt? Ok if my name is Albert what's yours?"

She looked.

"Umm Tiffany."

He sighed.

"Ok if you say so. I'm coming. Go on I'll be right in. Let me throw away our trash."

She kissed him and dived back in and swam around. Then Alvin dived in and grabbed her from behind when she came back up for air. She giggled.

"Stop that you're tickling me. I said stop it. Why I oughtta dunk you under. Ha ha slow poke come and catch me I'm faster than you!"

He came back up and swam after her and grabbed her once again.

"You were saying now who is the faster one? Now where's the guy that was hitting on you?"

She saw him coming and pointed.

"That good looking one with the black hair and build to die for…j/k you know no one is finer than you. Here he comes try and be nice you hot head."

He heard one of their songs come on and smiled looking at her.

"Whatever you do don't sing he'll know it's you do I make myself clear? Are you listening to me?"

She smiled as he held her waist while he leaned against the side of the pool.

"Yes loud and clear darling. That goes for you to."

He just sighed and continued to hold her waist as the guy that was talking to her earlier approached them.

"Oh you must be Albert. I was just telling your girl here that she's hot like Brittany Miller of The Chipettes and looks just like her with the same necklace she wears. So what brings you here to Florida? California is so much more awesome than this boring old state. Sorry I didn't introduce myself I'm Nick and that beautiful girl is my woman Susie. Susie come over here and meet somebody."

Alvin watched as Nick's girl swam toward them and gulped.

"Oh no Britt we have to get out of here that's my ex Susie she'll blow our cover. Besides we have our session at Castaway Island starting. Come on tell him we have to go or I'll get mobbed and so will you?"

She recognized Susie and glared.

"You went with that blonde before we got together? What exactly were you thinking? Alright Alvin we'll go calm down. Uh oh we have a problem they are going to the same session as us! What are we going to do?"

He sighed.

"Try to avoid them if we can and if she asks I'll just tell her she has me mixed up with somebody else. Come on then."

They got out of the pool and she took his hand as they walked over to Castaway Island behind them Nick yelled.

"Hey Albert wait up we're going to the same session as you two. This is my girl Susie."

Alvin stopped and shook his head. Then Brittany also shook her head. Susie looked and put her hand out to shake.

"Hey Albert I'm Susie and this hunk right here is my man Nick so much better than my ex that loser Alvin from the Chipmunks. After I dumped his stuck up ass I moved to Florida and met this wonderful guy! And your girlfriend's name is; I didn't catch it."

Brittany looked and shook her hand trying to hold in the anger.

"Sorry I didn't introduce myself I'm Tiffany and Albert and I are here on vacation from California. We happen to be close friends of Brittany and Alvin and they don't seem stuck up. We chill with them every weekend and of course in school when they're not on tour. Don't mind Albert he's just impatient to go on the slides."

Alvin looked.

"Oh yes very impatient indeed Tiffany can we move a little faster please? Ah hem Tiffany let's go already!"

She saw the anger in his face and looked.

"Umm can you excuse us; Albert will you wait up for me! Wow he is really impatient to get on those slides."

He stormed off and she grabbed his waist. Looking around to make sure they weren't close to them.

"Alvin I'm sorry. Stop being mad at me please. I had no idea she was your ex that broke your heart!"

He sighed.

"Its alright Britt sorry about storming off like that but if I didn't get away from her my mouth would've gone off on her and we'd be discovered. I'll give her loser! She has her nerve saying that! What do I care anymore I have you don't I. Come on then let's go on the big red one."

They got in line and she rested her head on his shoulder sighing.

"Still so muscular and all mine. I'm so lucky to be your girl. I love you so much and am having so much fun! I'm so glad you talked your father and my stepmother into letting us come here. "

He smiled.

"I am the best aren't I? Can you let me go now only one person at a time on the slide I'll meet you at the bottom? Britt please."

She let him go and watched as he went down the slide and laughed when he tripped. Then she got on and slid down laughing as she ended up at the bottom. He looked at her and smiled.

"What is so funny? I did that on purpose that's how much you know. Let's go on the yellow one now."

She smiled and looked.

"Fine but I go 1st this time where are your manners young man? Aren't ladies always first?"

He laughed.

"Very funny! Fine then you go 1st Talk about pushy!"

Nick appeared behind Alvin and tapped him.

"Yo Albert so what do you think about castaway Island?"

He watched as Brittany slid down and laughed as she made it to the bottom and fell down.

"Oh it's cool and a lot of fun! Sorry can't chat it's my turn talk to you later."

He waited till she moved and slid down the yellow one and laughed when he hit the bottom. She grabbed him from behind and pushed him down in the water gently.

"Were you laughing at me when I hit my knee Alvin were you?"

He laughed and pushed her down.

"Yes I was what are you going to do about it then? Hmm Britt?"

Nick appeared behind him and he looked.

"Well Tiff what are you going to do about it? I'm waiting."

She laughed.

"Ok I give let me up please. Please you're hurting me with your claws! Albert!"

He realized his claws were out and let her up.

"I'm sorry sometimes I don't know my own strength are you alright?"

She got up and looked at the claw marks in her arm.

"I'll survive! You better calm yourself buddy! Those claws will give you away! What am I going to do with you; you're so impossible sometimes I swear!"

He ran after her as she stormed off toward the chairs and sat down.

"Brittany I'm sorry I didn't mean to hurt you! Please don't stay mad at me!"

She looked and saw Nick trying to signal him mouthing. Tiffany he's right behind you.

He understood and turned around.

"Hey umm her middle name is Brittany! Ok fine you caught me it is who you thought it was. Sorry bout that. I just don't want to be spotted or we'll both get mobbed! I'm Alvin and that is Brittany. But you already knew that huh."

He looked and stared.

"Yes because there aren't that many chipmunks that look exactly like you or her. Its alright I'm a huge fan of both of your groups no matter how Susie trash talks you! Just a little surprised I guess because the other 4 aren't with you two. Oh by the way can you clear something up for me please."

Alvin looked.

"It depends on what it is."

Nick stared.

"Who is the older brother you or Simon and is it true that Theodore is a lot younger than you and Simon?"

Alvin looked as he held Brittany's waist.

"I'm the eldest and Theodore is the same age as Simon and I just 10 minutes younger than me and 5 minutes younger than Simon. Same thing with Brittany and her sisters but she's a month younger than me. I just turned 16 and she'll be 16 in May."

Susie looked.

"I knew it was you I'll give you Albert please Alvin how stupid do you think I really am? That's why I called you a loser so you would admit who you are. I can see you moved on and found somebody new. I dumped you because you were nothing but a flirt and I couldn't take it anymore but I'm still a fan. What surprises me is she's a female chipmunk! But that's cool where are the others?"

Brittany answered.

"Oh in St. Augustine. We're not much into culture like Simon and Jeanette. What am I saying neither are Theodore and Eleanor but we needed to get away from them. No matter it's really nice here in Florida. So shall we enjoy the rest of our session?"

The 4 of them went back in line and went on the slides laughing as each of them fell because they were so dizzy! After the session ended Alvin looked at his watch.

"Well we have to be going. Nice hanging with you 2 even you Susie. Also thanks for not blowing our cover."

They exited and entered the bathrooms to change into dry clothes. When they were finished they went to the car and he pulled out carefully.

"So where do you want to go for dinner? Or do you want to go back to the hotel and take showers and then decide it's up to you."

She thought for a minute.

"Hmm how bout Italian; but I think it's better if we take our showers to get the chlorine off our bodies then we can go out for dinner."

He smiled.

"Alright then Italian it is. We'll go back to our room and get ready and then we'll go out. Whatever you say Britt babe. It's only 4pm in the afternoon anyway and no restaurant opens till like 7pm."

She smiled and rested her head on him as they drove back to the hotel.

Back in St. Augustine Theodore stared at Eleanor reading her book and sighed. She looked up from her book and asked.

"Theo what's the matter? Am I getting on your nerves because I'm reading and ignoring you?"

He looked.

"What makes you think that? Just because I'm lying here and watching you read and you're not even paying attention to me? Well yes I am aggravated you've been reading that book since 2:30pm and not as much as looking at me. I wish I knew what were you so afraid of me for? You want affection and yet you aren't even looking at me. Fine then be like that see if I care; your problem is you listen to those girls on your squad too much and it makes you fear me cause they got dumped after they surrendered and you're afraid if we kiss you'll end up like them anyway fine go back to your book I'm going for a swim."

He stormed off to the water and she looked.

"Theodore it's not like that at all. I thought you understood Theodore don't do this to me I'm sorry!"

In the meantime as Simon and Jeanette walked in the zoo she looked.

"Oh where are we going for dinner tonight? I'm in the mood for umm Chinese food. We haven't had that in a while."

He smiled.

"Fine then we'll go out for Chinese food after the zoo my precious Jeanie. I was thinking what Alvin said to me awhile back. Is it true you feel neglected when you're over and I'm too busy studying to realize you're there? Be honest with me I won't get mad I promise."

She sighed.

"Yes it is true I do feel neglected sometimes but also understand you want to keep your 4.0 average. But also wish you'd show me some type of acknowledgement so I would understand a little more! I love you so much and would never do anything to cause you to fail in the count of me."

He smiled as he wrapped his arms around her and removed her glasses after he took off his own.

"Well if that's the case starting right now that will all change I also love you my precious. I will pay more attention to you then my studies when you're over."

She smiled as his lips moved closer to hers. Then she also wrapped her arms around him as their lips met and their tongues touched. As they made out she moved her hands on his back and the kiss lasted almost 30 minutes until the water fountain splashed them because of the wind was blowing. They broke apart and she smiled.

"Oh my that felt so right. You're definitely a good kisser and that was our 1st French kiss. I love you so much Simon. You're not dull at all and all mine."

He smiled and took her hand as they continued to walk through the zoo. When they finished walking through the zoo they got back in the car and he drove toward the Chinese restaurant. The waitress seated them and she giggled.

"Oh Simon you still have my lipstick on your mouth and people are staring. Why don't you go wash it off and then we can order. What are you drinking in the meantime?"

He looked and responded.

"Root beer with very little ice. I'll be right back don't miss me too much."

She watched as he headed to the men's room and sighed while she sipped her water. Then she ordered their drinks and looked at the menu to decide on what she wanted to eat. After she decided he returned to his seat and smiled at her.

"So did you decide yet? I'm getting Sesame chicken and Egg Drop Soup. "

She smiled.

"That sounds good I'll have the same thing you are. I always wanted to try it but Ms. Miller is so strict with our food it's not even funny."

He ordered their food and their soup came and they ate in silence.

Back at the beach Eleanor stared at Theodore swimming in the ocean and sighed.

'Brittany is right I have to stop being like this with him before I lose him. Let me go talk to him and calm him down.'

She got up off the towel and swam after Theodore and grabbed him from behind.

"Theo I'm sorry please don't stay angry at me. You are right I do listen to the girls on our squad but should know better that you're not like them. Can you ever forgive me? I really do love you so much and don't want to lose you because of my stupid friends. Can we leave the beach and go out for dinner please?"

He smiled and grabbed her by the waist as he turned toward her. Then he lifted her chin and brushed his hand by her cheek gazing into her soft brown eyes. Her eyes gazed into his green eyes and she watched as his lips moved closer to hers and accepted wrapping her arms around him. Then their tongues touched and he picked her up and pushed her down to their towel continuing to make out with her. Her hands moved along his back. It started to rain and she looked up and he felt the rain drops on his back and broke apart from her.

"Oh man its raining we have to get back to the hotel it's lightning to. Eleanor help me clean up so we can get to the car."

They cleaned up and he put two towels down on the seats and threw the beach bag in the trunk. Then he got in and pulled out and drove toward the hotel. When they pulled up the Valet parked the car and he grabbed her hand and they ran back to their hotel room. He locked the door and she looked.

"Whoa that was close. You are definitely some kisser Theodore and you're all mine. I guess we're stuck inside and can't go out for dinner after all."

He looked and smiled.

"Not necessarily depending on what you're in the mood for. If you're in the mood for Italian we can't leave till 7pm anyway and it should stop raining by then. It's only slight thunderstorms this afternoon nothing too serious. We can always catch up on our making out since we've been together a long time and just kissed today."

She smiled as she entered the bathroom and put on her jean shorts and her tank top. Then she brushed out her hair and put it in her pigtails. When she was finished he entered the bathroom and also put on his shorts and his green muscle shirt. Eleanor lay on the bed and stared up at the ceiling. Then she watched as he exited the bathroom and joined her on the bed. They smiled at one another and their lips met once again. She moved her hands inside his shirt and back out again to his back as they continued to make out passionately on the bed. Theodore's hands moved from the side and to her tank top sliding the straps down and she lifted her arms up as he slid it off over her head. She also took off his shirt and traced the lines in his chest causing him to sigh. His hands moved to her jean short s and he slid them off moving his hands up her thighs and back to her chest. Her hands moved to his jean shorts and he was in his boxers still kissing her passionately.

She felt his lips move from hers and to her arch causing her to sigh and down to her stomach. His cell rang and he answered.

'Yes Dave we're back in our room it started to rain so we had to come back inside. No we're going out for dinner in a few hours because the restaurant doesn't open till 7pm. But thanks for asking; yes I know our curfew is at 11pm. Oh Simon and Jeanie went out for dinner he text me and told me. Alright Dave bye Theodore out.'

He hung up his cell and smiled at Eleanor.

"Whew that was too close. Are you alright sweetheart?"

She smiled as she rested her head on his chest.

"Yes I'm fine that was an intense make out session. I never thought you had in you to kiss with so much passion! You're so full of surprises. Can we take a nap until like 6:30pm I'm a little tired from all that sun? Aren't you?"

He smiled and reached over to where the alarm was and set it for 6:30pm. Then he stroked her forehead gently until she fell asleep on his chest. He smiled and threw the light sheet over them and also drifted off to sleep holding her close.

Back in Miami.

They took their showers and Alvin pulled the bed down as the rain came down again.

"Lucky for us our reservations aren't until 7:30pm. I'm so exhausted and think we should take a nap we had a lot of sun. Are you still reading that stupid book that has nothing to do with us! Britt who told you to read that book if I may ask?"

She sighed as they both lay down.

"My friend Shelly because after she read that book her and Tyrone had an intimate relationship and it brought them closer. I guess I thought it would be a good idea and give me some knowledge on how a couple gets to that level. But obviously I read it and none of the signs we're ready are in our relationship. I mean I can wait as long as you want me to but still wonder how it would feel if we ever get there."

He shook his head and looked at her.

"Britt that is about humans we're chipmunks they are two completely different subjects and every sign we're ready is there even though you don't realize it. I can assure you of that but you are in a rush and it happens when you least expect it! No guy likes to be pushed or getting hints! He knows what she wants but won't give in because she is pushing him too hard! Does that remind you of somebody? Hmm?"

She looked.

"Me I'm pushing you. Oh Alvin I didn't know is that why you've been so upset at me lately? Can you ever forgive me? I guess I listen to my friends too much and push you away without realizing it! Is that why for the passed week you haven't kissed me goodnight?"

He nodded and smiled at her.

"Yes that is the reason. I told you not to pressure me and that's all you've been doing! So what we haven't made love yet it's no big deal. We have something they don't and it's true love. When you least expect it we will but if you keep on bringing it up you're gonna tick me off and it never will happen kabish!"

She sighed as he turned away from her and drifted off to sleep. Then she also lies down and also fell asleep thinking about what Alvin was saying. He looked at where she slept and smiled. Then he set the alarm and turned toward Brittany asleep and wrapped his arms around her. She snuggled up to him and sighed. Then he kissed her and she accepted without hesitation moving her hands from her side and to his back. She smiled up at him as they kissed passionately and felt his hands moving up her thighs causing her to sigh….His lips moved from hers and down her arch to her stomach. She closed her eyes and smiled.

"Oh Alvin I so miss these make out sessions. Sorry I turned to that stupid book and put so much pressure on you. You are right that book isn't for chipmunks just for humans. I love you so much and hope when we do get to that intimate part of our relationship it lasts….for more than 15 minutes."

He laughed.

"15 minutes that's all. Ok now that is just weird…it'll last believe me longer than you'd ever know. Brittany?"

He looked and seen that she had fallen asleep on him and smiled stroking her forehead gently and then drifted off to sleep holding her in his arms.
