Oh and I OWN NOTHING! don't sew
Chapter 3 Alvin realizes
As we last saw Simon was having the time of his life a new band new people and he at least shared the glory with the band. However things weren't going so well for the "Alvin and the chipmunks" band. After Simons departure Alvin's popularity had plummeted to almost rock bottom. Alvin first realized this when a problem happened on stage
_Flashback_
Alvin was backstage very unfazed when his brother left. 'soon he will come crawling back. Begging to be back in the band.'
"alright boys time to be on stage. Lets go come on." Dave said "oh and Alvin did Simon come back yet." asked Dave.
Alvin looked at him as if Dave had said a word that had been banned from public use and the dictionary. "no Dave he hasn't" Alvin said in a 'I don't give a crap' tone/
Dave looked at Alvin "come on we need him Alvin without him its not the same."
" we don't need him Dave we're better off without him in fact if he comes back I'm gonna make sure that he's on his knees before we let him back in the band." Alvin said as he ran out and on to the stage.
As he walked on stage he heard the crowd calling his name but he noticed something odd. There were very little people there. He looked at the drums where Theodore should've been he saw that Theodore had sad eyes. Guilt ran through Alvin as he walked to the leading mic. The songs commenced they played their most famous songs and the crowd barely had a cheer. The rhythm of the lead was far away from the beat of the drums. Songs sounded horrible and after a while the crowd started booing them off stage. Theodore was the first to book it. He had felt that before and he didn't want to face it again.(squeekual reference.)
However Alvin had his first crowd hatred. He stared off seeing the angry faces of the fans. He didn't know what to say so he went backstage. Dave stood there knowing the problem, Simon was everything in the band. A bassist kept the drummer and lead together without that its just a bunch of notes without life, without love, and without feeling.
_end flashback_
Alvin was reminiscing on everything. 'what happened' Alvin thought 'I was on top of the world. The world love me and now…..now' "what went wrong" said Alvin. 'my life is ruined. I had everything I ever wanted good looks and the ability to sing.' Alvin looked back to all passed events but found nothing. "everything was ok until….until" Alvin said. A tear rolled down his cheek. Alvin had finally realized everything 'the crowd didn't love me. They loved us they loved the band' Alvin thought. " they didn't love just me but Theodore to and… and…." Alvin finally was on his knees having short sobs escape from him. When that one word finally popped into his head and he mustered the courage to say it. "Simon…." Alvin then broke down. He had finally realized his flaw. the biggest mistake was letting him go. He found out he had struck his own acuilese heel. 'if I'm going to make this right I have to get him back.'
With Simon
Simon was in need of something for the band, and he knew just the person. Jeannette and Simon were still keeping in contact and he wanted to ask a big question.(not a date) so he called her. After a few rings she answered
"hello" Jeannette said on the other line.
"hey Jeannette how ya been" Simon asked
"oh you know bored" Jeannette said with a sigh.
"ok how are you and the chipettes doing?" Simon asked
" well we have lost a bit of our fame because Brittany cant do a duet with Alvin." Jeannette said
"I swear those 2 are twins any way you guys always had dates planned with the chipmunks I'm sure many of those shows were cancelled right?" Simon asked though with a grin on his face.
"yeah we did our only solo concerts are scheduled 2 days on December next month and a tour on January."
"ok now Jeannette I wanna ask you a big question. My band has an opening and we need an organ player so I wanted to see if you were available." Simon paused then continued "I know you're a real good piano player so you'll be using the electric piano."
"ok Simon but I don't know any of your songs." Jeannette said
"don't worry its cool I'll show you the notes to the next songs we're playing next." Simon said with hope
"ok Simon I'll join but why would I leave my band I mean me and Brittany kind of agree with each other." Jeannette said but before she could continue. Simon said
"who said anything about you leaving the chipettes our scheduled dates aren't the same as yours and we have no scheduled concert dates on your tour."
"but what about future plans the chipettes are gonna hold for future show dates." Jeannette said
"Jeannette who do you think runs my bands tour dates" Simon said
"who you?" Jeannette asked shocked.
"yeah they guys never have much to do on many days so I plan our tour dates we're just a public band Jeannette not a full on big celebrity one." Simon said
" so what do you call us in the chipettes" asked Jeannette a little bit suspicious
"Jeannette I really need your help on this do you want me to go to your house and beg" said Simon.
Jeannette giggled at the comment "no Simon but ok I'll join when do we start rehearsing?"
"that is a good question how about now if you want I can pick you up" said Simon
"ok sounds good"
"GREAT! I'm on my way later Jeannette"
"ok bye." Jeannette said
After about 30 minutes Simon arrived and took her to the studio. He showed her a mp3 organ/piano that she is using after warming up he showed her the notes to the song so he practiced the beginning with her. He had made it to her playing while he sang for her. So this was just rehearsal for that day they would do it.
"OK Jeannette you ready?" asked Simon
"ok lets go" said Jeannette
"ok 1..2..123 and…" Simon said. As he finished Jeannette started to play a little melody in the beginning then commenced with the rest Simon started singing as she was able to play and stare into his eyes. She had quickly memorized everything on there and played. Once she continued she saw a huge glow of life in simons eyes with every note. Then Simon started to sing.
At last we meet again dear god.. When the angels sing
The funerals are nicer when they know your there.. When the angels sing
Sometimes I try so hard to understand the things you do
Who am I to question you when it all comes down when the angels sing
Jeannette then started playing the chorus and watched amazed as Simon sang
Stand up strong feel the pain when the angels sing
Love and death don't mean a thing when the angels sing..
Jeannette finished as Simon finished those last words. For moments they did nothing but stare into each others eyes. Lost in each others soul, then slowly they began moving closer. Until their lips were only a hair apart. But luck was against them when Jeannette's elbow hit random unwanted notes on the keyboard and startled the two. Jeannette just look at Simon hoping that he would continue.
All Simon did was turn away for a little bit and looked then looked at her and said
"good work Jeannette this whole beginning will be played for our entrance ok just me and you."
"ok Simon" Jeannette said a little disappointed. She wanted nothing more than to kiss Simon there and then, but then Simon said that she had to get home before ms. Miller got curious as to where she disappeared to.
After dropping her off Jeannette ran to her room and flopped herself on her bed. She wasn't sad because she didn't get rejected, she wasn't angry that she didn't get her deepest desire, she was only a little happy as she saw that she had almost kissed Simon. 'damn my clumsiness.' Jeannette said as she couldn't get her mind out of what almost happened. She then fell asleep with a sigh 'my dreams will probably substitute that that almost happened.' Jeannette then knocked out.
A/N: ok thanks again for the reviews hopefully you guys enjoyed this, and I know some of you guys are wondering why I didn't let feelings slip out. Just be patient the love will be revealed in song. Thank you everyone I probably wont update much since school started again, but I'll do what I can
If you want to here the actual song it's a little different. Go to you tube and look it up and watch it live. You'll here what I meant when she played the organ/piano.
