AATC: Blackout (Theodore and Eleanor)

Everything went dark.

No, they didn't just close their eyes, but they all blacked out and exactly at the same time.

The last thing Theodore saw before fainting, was Eleanor, leaning against his shoulder and the last thing, Eleanor saw, was Theodore's warm shoulder.

They both blacked out, and because they were so close together, they didn't fall anywhere else but just collapsed on each other.

They both saw the strangest "dream"

Theodore's "Dream"

Theodore was holding a huge and heavy cheesecake in his arms. He had been prepairing it all day, just for Eleanor and himself.

The base of the cake was very soft and had a slight taste of chocolate and the icing was light yellow, because of the cheese and lemon in it. The filling was a mixture of melted white chocolate and cheese. On top of the cake, there was a green heart, which had the letters E&T in it.

"It's perfect!" Theodore said proud of himself. "Now I'll just wait for Ellie to arrive from shopping."

Eleanor and Claire had went to buy groceries and after that, to buy clothes. Jeanette and Simon were in the library and Alvin and Brittany were on their first date. Dave was sleeping in his bedroom, tired from cleaning up the house.

Theodore started washing the dishes with his small paws, which was very difficult, but he did it, because he thought, that if hed had messed up, he also had to clean it up.

The water was hot and the dishes were large, but finally Theodore was able to wash all the things he had used baking his masterpiece.

As he had finished, he jumped on the table, next to his masterpiece cake and just stared at it in amazement.

He could have never pulled it off without Dave, because he wasn't strong enough for certain parts of the baking, so he had asked Dave to come help him and of course he had helped. Theodore had still been able to keep it as a secret, what he was baking.

Now he just had to wait for Eleanor to arrive and to share this cake with him. It was a symbol of his love for her and there could've been no other way to show it to her than baking it.

Theodore felt proud of himself and lifted the whole cake in his paws, to see it in a different light.

DING DONG! The doorbell rang for the sign that Claire and Eleanor were home. Theodore scared of the sound and started wobbling, still holding the cake in his paws.

He wobbled all the way till the edge of the table and finally was able to stop, but then the door flew open, sending in a large blow of wind.

Theodore was surprised how strong the wind was.

It pulled the cake out of his paws and it landed straight on the floor, unfortunately... upside down. Theodore started crying.

"We're ba..." Claire shouted but stopped because she noticed that Theodore was crying. "Theo... what's wrong?" She asked her voice full of concern. Theodore pointed at the cake on the floor.

"Oh..." Claire said quietly.

"What happened?" Eleanor asked as she walked in with a couple of chipmunk-sized bags. She noticed that Theodore was crying. Her best friend, so she went to him and hugged him.

"What's wrong Teddy?" She asked and gained just miserable sobbing from her friend.

"I'm so sorry Ellie. I had just finished my cake for you and now it's ruined!" Theodore sobbed and pointed at the smashed cake below. He felt so sad. The cake which he had made for her best friend was ruined and now she was there.

"Oh, Theo, you baked me a cake..."

"I know, but now it's just a pile of mush, which used to be a cake."

"Theo, I don't care if it's a cake or not. You still baked it for me so I'm very flattered"

"Y-y-you mean it?" Theodore said, now feeling slightly better.

"Of course my Teddy bear. I don't care if you just ruined it, because you will always mean everything to me, no matter what." Eleanor said sincerely, or at least it sounded sincere for Theodore.

"Really?" He asked carefully, his eyes still wet and red.

"Yes Theodore! I love you, more than anything! More than any cake you bake for me!"

"You? What?" Theodore said and before he could say anything else, he found Eleanor's lips locked to his. He was shocked. He wasn't expecting this. He had wanted to kiss her for a long time, but he hadn't been sure if she liked him back, but now he was and started kissing back, which caused Eleanor to moan quietly under her lips.

Theodore released from Eleanor and stared at her emerald green eyes. "That was better than any cake on the whole planet! NO, the whole universe!" This made Eleanor giggle.

"So... want to see the photo of that cake, because I always take a photo of everything I bake." He asked

"Yes Theo!"

-.…...End of "Dream"...-

Eleanor's "Dream"

She was driving home with Claire. They had been shopping for the whole day and she had bought herself a new dress, skirt, necklace and even underwear. She had also bought Theodore a present; A green cook book, with an autograph of Jamie Oliver, who they had met in the shopping mall.

She was sure that Theodore would like it, because he loved cooking AND Jamie Oliver. (his cooking, not him as a person)

"So, how do you think Theo will like this?" she asked Claire and held out the cook book.

"I'm sure he'll love it. I'm sure that he loves everything YOU get him, because I think he may have a slight crush on you."

"You think so?" Eleanor asked.

"I don't think so. I know so! It can be seen from him every time he is with you."

"Really? I thought that it's his normal behavior"

"I can tell you that he's nothing like that when you're away. He is more confident and braver, and then again, he is nervous around you, which again is a sign for that he likes you."

"You sure? I mean like, I like him and all, but..."

"But what? He likes you and that's the case. No arguing."

"Wow" Eleanor thought "If what Claire says is true, then I must act fast."

Claire stopped at the chipmunk's house and they stepped out of the car, carrying huge bags.

Only Theodore and Dave were home, because she knew that Jeanette and Simon were in the library and Alvin and Brittany were on a date.

They stepped on the porch and Eleanor saw Theodore sitting on the kitchen table, looking at something, but not them. "He hasn't probably noticed us yet"

Claire rang the doorbell and opened the door as Eleanor walked a couple of human steps behind her.

"We're ba..." Claire shouted but then went quiet. "Theo... what's wrong?" She asked.

Eleanor turned concerned "Is something wrong with Teddy!" she thought and rushed in and saw Theodore crying on the table. "What happened" she asked adn dropped her bags on the floor. Theodore looked miserable, so she decided to cheer him up and went and hugged him. "It's okay Teddy" she whispered in a voice which was barely audible. "What's wrong Teddy?" she asked a bit louder.

"I'm so sorry Ellie. I had just finished my cake for you and now it's ruined." Theodore sobbed against her and pointed something on the floor. It was definitely a cake, or at least it had been.

"Oh, Theo, you baked me a cake." She said and felt really happy but stunned. Now she knew that he had somekind of feelings towards her.

"I know, but now it's just a pile of mush, which used to be a cake" Theo said still sobbing.

"Theo, I don't care if it's a cake or not. You still baked it for me, so I'm very flattered." she said trying to cheer him up.

"Y-y-you mean it?" he asked

"Of course my Teddy Bear. I don't care if you just ruined it, because you will always mean everything to me, no matter what."

"R-really?..."

"Yes, Theodore! I love you more than anything! More than any cake you bake for me" she exclaimed happily and started approaching him.

"You? What?" he said.

"This is the time" she thought and locked her lips with his. The ultimate test, will he kiss her back? She hoped that he would.

She kept kissing him, but he didn't do anything. She was disappointed. Maybe he doesn't like m..." she thought but had to stop when she realized that Theodore had started kissing her back. She moaned for satisfaction and love.

They pulled away "That was better than any cake on the whole planet! NO! The whole universe!" Theodore exclaimed and made Eleanor giggle from happiness. He had some feelings for her after all.

"So, want to see a photo of that cake, because I always take a photo of everything I bake." Theodore suggested.

"Yes Theo!" She replied and took a hold of his paw.

Theodore dragged her to the camera on turned it on.

"Where is it, where is it" Theodore mumbled "A-HA! Here it is." He said and turned the camera towards Eleanor, who gasped. The cake was BEAUTIFUL.

"You baked that for... me." She asked and theodore nodded shyly.

"Yep, I hope you like it."

"Oh, Theo! It's beautiful" She exclaimed and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and turned to watch the camera again. The photo had been taken 3rd of july, 16.34. Just 15 minutes ago, so that meant that he had just gotten it finished.

"It's perfect. So, want to see the present I bought you?"

-…...End of "Dream"...-

Surprisingly, Theodore and Eleanor woke up exactly at the same time and stared at each other and then the others, who also were waking up.

"What happened?" Eleanor asked

"I'm not sure, but I saw the strangest dream ever." Theodore replied and looked a little embarrased.

"What was it?" Eleanor asked

"Well... In my dream, I had baked you a cake, but then it was ruined, because I dropped it on the floor, but then you came to cheer me up and we umm... how do I put this... umm... we... we kissed..." Theodore said and looked away.

"Theo! I had exactly the same dream!"

"You did? How's that possible?" He asked and turned back to her.

"I don't know, but I can tell it was quite nice" She replied and blushed

"I- I umm..."

"No need to explain Theo. I meant that. I like you too."

Theodore just smiled at her and kissed her cheek.

"That was our future!" Simon yelled "I saw the date, it was 3rd of july! It's exactly 6 months from now!"

"I don't mind if that was our future. It seemed quite nice to me" Eleanor said and cuddled tightly next to Theodore.

"Same." Theodore replied

"I almost wish that day would be today"
