Chapter Two :D Still no sexy stuff, but that'll come later. Theodore and Ellie are so fucking cute x3 Forgive typos! Also, Andy is an OC I made up. He's the boys producer :D

Simon walked to a nearby empty table and sat his tray down. He plopped into the seat and sighed. School had been terrible all day. Dave had ordered him some replacement glasses, but they wouldn't be in until tomorrow. Andy was kind enough to give him a pair of his costume glasses; unfortunately, the only ones Andy had with him right now were a pink and black striped pair from when they did an "alternative" show. Simon thought they looked emo, if anything. He didn't want to wonder around in one of his usual polo's and pink and black glasses, so he had grudgingly borrowed a black shirt and pair of dark blue jeans from Alvin. Theodore had fixed his hair so it looked more "alternative" and Alvin had giggled at him on the way to school. Girls were staring at him and smiling and giggling. Simon felt so embarrassed and just wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear until his new glasses arrived. He pushed his tray away and slumped his head down on the table, covering it with his arms.

Janette watched Simon, a blush covering her face. She looked over at Alvin, who was surrounded by giggling girls. He stared at her and nodded briefly, turning back toward a beautiful redhead and whispering something causing her the blush and giggle. Janette rolled her eyes and got up, slowly walking toward Simon.

"Hey Si!" she said, plopping down beside him. Simon's head perked up and he stared at her, smiling.

"Hi Janette." He muttered.

"You look sort of...down." She said. She put on a sympathetic smile and batted her eyes at him. Simon stared and nodded.

"My glasses were – Well, I lost them." Simon said, his cheeks burning. The last thing he wanted was for Janette to know about what had actually happened.

"Oh," she said, giggling a little, "Well, I like the new look. It suits you." She added, laughing a little more. Simon gave her a smug smile and laughed a little too.

"You think so? I was going for tortured soul." He said, throwing his arms out so she could get a better look at him. Janette giggled, nodding.

"I def initially see it." She said. The two laughed a little more and then grew silent, smiling at each other.

"So...Si..." Janette started. She looked down at her laps and began lacing and unlacing her fingers nervously. "I was wondering...What are you doing this afternoon?" She said. She turned her face away from Simon, flushed and embarrassed. Simon's heart sped up and his mouth went dry.

"She's asking you out!" Simon's head screamed. He opened his mouth in response but something made him stop. He bit his lip, thinking. He had liked Janette since he was younger, but she had never really returned the affection. Just last week she had text him raving that his friend Markus had smiled at her in class. Simon ran a hand through his hair and scanned the cafeteria for his brothers.

Theodore was sitting close by Elenore, their hands laced in each others. Ellie was feeding Theo some cheesecake she had made especially for him. Theo snuggled into her shoulder, causing Ellie to giggle. She placed her head atop his and the two snuggled up, enjoying more of the cake. Simon smiled, they went together so well. He continued to scan until his eyes met Alvin's.

Alvin's eyes widened and he quickly turned, innocently whistling, and tried to pretend he hadn't just been watching Simon and Janie. Simon lowered his eyes and gazed back suspiciously. He turned back to Janette, who was nervously fingering some food on her tray, waiting for an answer. Simon smiled gently down at her.

"A-Actually, I'm sorta busy tonight. My friend Markus is free though, if you want me to ask him if he wants to-" Simon's sentence was cut short by Janette's gasp. She stared up at Simon, her face glowing and smiling.

"Oh! R-Really Simon!? Y-You don't mind!?" She said, gripping his shoulders. Simon chuckled and shook his head.

"It's no problem. I promise." He said. Janette jumped up and giggled, running back to her table to tell her friends about what just happened. Simon sighed and pulled out his cell phone. He sent Markus a quick text and closed it. He had done is good deed of the day. His eyes rose to meet Alvin's again and Alvin squeaked nervously when Simon got up and stalked toward him.

The girls all turned toward Simon and cooed out, "Hey Simon!" and "Hey there!" when they saw him. He waved politely back at them and grabbed Alvin by the shirt.

"Excuse us please, ladies." He said politely, yanking Alvin up. "I need to have a few words with my brother dear." He grit his teeth and looked down at Alvin, who looked positively terrified. Simon turned, dragging Alvin off toward the boys restroom.

Simon slammed Alvin into the nearest stall and walked in behind him, closing and locking the door. Alvin situated himself on the toilet and gazed up at Simon.

"Why does he have to be so fucking tall...?" Alvin thought, slinking back against the toilet. Simon placed his hands on the wall on either side of Alvin and leaned in, his forehead touching Alvin's.

"Wanna tell me what you had to do with that display earlier?" Simon said. He was glaring hard at Alvin and Alvin's plan to 'play innocent' quickly faded away.

"I-I thought you liked Janette. What's wrong with a brother trying to help his little brother out?" Alvin stammered. Simon's glare got angrier.

"Little brother doesn't need your help, Alvin." He said. Alvin blushed. "Janette doesn't like me Alvin, I've come to accept that. Please don't make it worse by throwing her up in my face." Simon finished. Alvin felt his cheeks grow hot with shame. He looked up at Simon's eyes; his glasses had slipped down a little actually giving Alvin the opportunity to see them. Simon got the good eyes. Theodore had his shiny green ones, and Alvin got the hazel ones that changed colors with his moods, but Simon got the good eyes. They looked like glass, or crystal. Alvin swallowed hard, staring up at them. They were so blue; he'd never noticed. He'd never been this close to Simon to notice. Alvin licked his lips, trying to turn his gaze away and failed. Simon leaned up, and unlocked the stall, opening the door.

"Just...stay out of my personal life, okay Alvin? I have to have at least one part of my life that doesn't have you in it. Is that too much to ask?" Simon said, his face growing soft and sad. He turned and walked out of the restroom. Alvin sat, listening to the door close.

He bit his lip and sighed. Alvin knew how much Simon had cared for Janette; and he knew Janette rejected him. He couldn't imagine how hurt Simon felt right now. Alvin mentally slapped himself, Simon's words floating up in his ears.

"One part of his life without me in it.." Alvin breathed. He pulled his knee's in, circling his arms around them and lowering his chin to his chest. He felt so small and worthless. Simon had never said anything like that to him before.

"But then, you've never pulled a stunt like this before." Alvin quietly reminded himself. He sat there, curled up in a defenseless ball, until the bell rang to leave lunch and go back to class. He slowly got to his feel and gazed at himself in the mirror. He smiled sadly, running a hand through his hair.

"You always know how to make me feel better, gorgeous." He said to his reflection. He turned and headed out of the door and back toward class.

--AFTER SCHOOL--

Alvin strummed his acoustic guitar quietly. He looked around the empty recording studio, and his eyes landed on Simon's untouched Emcee gear on the ground. He bit his bottom lip guiltily. Simon knew they had practice this afternoon, and it wasn't like him to be late. They couldn't practice without him, Simon was the only one that knew what buttons to press on that thing, and which knobs to twist. Alvin sighed and set his guitar down, running a hand through his hair. Dave and Andy walked through the door and stared at Simon's untouched equipment.

"Where's Simon?" Dave asked, looking at Alvin. Alvin looked up and shrugged. Dave gave him a weary look.

"Haven't you seen him? Was he at school today?" Dave pressed. Alvin nodded.

"Yeah but I haven't seen him since lunch." He said. Theodore waved a drumstick around and smiled.

"I saw him!" He said. Dave turned to face him and Alvin shot up in his seat looking interested.

"He left school with some guy. They were going to study, I think. Simon wanted me to tell you he'd have to skip practice today. I'm sorry Dave, I forgot." Theodore said, looking embarrassed. Dave let out a relieved sigh and nodded.

"It's alright Theodore, as long as Simon's okay." He turned towards Andy and shrugged. "I guess no practice today?" He asked. Andy nodded.

"School comes first." He said plainly. Theodore sat back on a nearby couch and pulled out his phone, texting Elenore.

Alvin got up and walked over to the couch, plopping down beside Theo.

"Simon left school with some guy?" He asked. Theodore nodded. Alvin glared at him.

"You didn't even ask him who it was?" He asked. Theodore got up, looking offended.

"It wasn't any of my business. Unlike you, I stay out of people's personal lives." He shot back. Alvin blushed and Theodore turned, walking out of the studio. Alvin bit his lip, frowning.

"I mind my own business. I'm just worried about Simon." Alvin thought, crossing his arms over his chest and hmphing. He lay down on the couch and glowered.

"Is it so wrong to worry about my little brother!? If he keeps hanging around with only guys and no chicks people are gonna start thinking he's...funny." Alvin thought. "He's never had a girlfriend! People read a lot into things like that!" He said aloud. He heard the door open and looked up as Dave poked his head inside.

"We're heading home now Alvin, are you coming?" He asked. Alvin shrugged.

"Yeah..." He sighed. He climbed off the couch and walked slowly behind Dave to the car outside.

--LATER--

Alvin sat at the kitchen table playing a game on his laptop. Every so often he'd glance up at the back door and then go back to playing his game. Dave was upstairs and Theodore was making dinner; he had been taking cooking classes and wanted to make a new recipe he found. Alvin paused the game and turned around, staring at the door again. He sighed and turned back to his game, un-pausing it. Theodore smiled a little.

"I'm sure he's fine Alvin. He's just hanging out with one of his friends." He said soothingly. Alvin looked up at Theodore and blushed.

"You're sure who's fine?" He said, lowering his head back to his game. Theodore rolled his eyes and smiled, going back to his cooking. Alvin paused the game and, as discretely as he could, turned to look back at the door. The handle turned and his heart leapt into his throat.

"-anks for the ride home man, I'll see you tomorrow." Simon's voice floated up through the door. He walked into the kitchen, closing it softly behind him.

He sniffed the air, smiling at Theodore.

"Smells good, glad I made it home in time." He said. Theodore returned his smiled and gestured to Alvin with a wooden spoon he was holding.

"If it were up to him, you would've been here hours ago." He said. Alvin's face grew hot and he hunched his shoulders, refusing to look Simon in the face. Simon laughed and reached down, putting his hands on Alvin's shoulders. Alvin relaxed a little; Simon's hands felt warm and comforting.

"Sorry about missing practice, I know you're upset. I'll make it up to you." He said, squeezing Alvin's shoulders lightly. Alvin squeaked and blushed more, nodding.

Simon let go and stretched.

"When's dinner going to be ready T?" he asked, opening an eye to glance in Theo's direction.

"A few more minutes. You can't rush perfection!" Theodore said. Simon nodded, laughing.

"Alright. I'm going to take a shower then." He said. He walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs. Alvin's eyes followed him until he was out of sight.

Simon was acting happy. Had he forgiven Alvin? Or was it just a show in front of Theo? Alvin got upand closed his laptop. He walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs.

He stopped at his bedroom door when he heard the shower turn on and soft humming coming from the bathroom. He turned around to face the bathroom door and leaned against his own door. Simon's voice floated up under the door, along with some steam. Simon always took scalding hot showers, Alvin never understood how he could stand it. When they were younger, before they lived with Dave, all three of them had bathed together and Simon would always complain about how cold the water was. Alvin blushed, remembering how they used to run around naked and not think anything about it. Now, it seemed so unnatural. They were younger then, of course. They didn't realize they were...different...from other chipmunks. He bit his bottom lip and gazed at the door.

Simon had been so angry at him earlier. Alvin's mind raced, trying to figure out if Simon had really forgiven him. He bit his lip. Alvin knew if the situation was reversed, it would take a lot for him to forgive Si. But then, that was a good thing about Simon. He didn't hold grudges. He said what he needed to say and let it go. But Alvin wasn't sure he had let it go. He didn't want Simon mad at him...In reality, Simon was his best friend. Alvin walked over to the bathroom door and knocked quietly. The humming inside stopped and a "Yeah?" floated up from under the door.

"I...I need to talk to you..." Alvin said. His voice sounded so small and far away to him. There was a long pause and Alvin panicked. What if Simon rejected him?!

"C'mon in then." Simon replied. Alvin heard the door click and turned the handle slowly. He stepped into the steam filled bathroom closing the door and locking it behind him. He looked up, and nearly swallowed his tongue. He gazed at Simon, bug-eyed.
