Chapter 1: Five Years Later

Alvin rolled from his bed, blinking softly. His dark brown eyes gazed around his room before locking on something before him. There, sitting on the floor was a dark red hoodie with a golden A written gently across the chest. Yanking it on, the twenty year old chipmunk sighed. His eyes darted to a picture sitting on his night stand, the sun perfectly hitting it making it shine like an angel. Alvin sighed, inside the golden picture frame sat the last picture he took with Britt. She stood there with her thumb up next to him and the others, holding the trophy from the Music Awards.

"Those were the good days." Alvin muttered silently, kicking the floor. Why was he so stupid? Not talking to them for FIVE YEARS? He still had feelings for that beautiful pink loving chipette. The way her big sky blue eyes would shine and glimmer, and the way her small light pink nose twitched perfectly. Her fluffy auburn fur and her nice sparkling pink dresses outlined her slim figure perfectly. He remembered how after refusing to talk to them, the Chipmunks nearly fell apart. But, why would he risk his fame for a stupid fight? No, he continued to sing with them for six months before he chose the life of a Solo Career.

Alvin pushed the thoughts from his mind, blinking gently as he stared at the ground. Finally, he moved his gaze to the cabinets. Opening them, Alvin searched for something to eats, he found something that caused his mouth to water, Toaster Waffles. The little taste bud delights that brought his mind back to when he and his brothers found Dave after… No, Alvin thought crossly, you need to stop having those flash backs! Move on already, I'm sure the others already did….

With that he placed some Waffles into his silver mini toaster. After what seemed like ages, he heard the little ding of the toaster, and the waffles flew into the air. He lifted his pure white plate, and placed his food onto it. Before he could even take the tiniest of nibbles into his breakfast… KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

"Ugh," Alvin groaned, throwing his waffle onto his plate and opened the door, "who is there-," Suddenly he felt a hand on his shoulder. He pulled the figure from him in shock before he saw her. The female chipmunk with long golden hair and deep emerald eyes, she wore a dark red dress that sparkled and danced in the light. "Oh Lil come in." Lil was his best friend, being sweet and gentle, but and at the same time brave and strong. She was everything Alvin could want except for a best friend, she was no Brittany. How he wish for her, and it was his fault he lost her…

"Alvin, what's wrong you seem a bit sad and gloomy today. Please, tell me." Lil whispered in his ear softly, her dark red lips rubbing together patiently. Alvin sighed, as he averted his gaze from her eyes and to the ground.

"It's nothing, today is just the day that," Alvin trailed off, looking at the ground, he closed his eyes acting as if he was hurt.

"What is it?"

"Today is the day I stopped talking to…., them. Five years ago." Alvin said finally, as his shoulders slumped. He just couldn't say their names; it was like they were some sort of terrible creature that names were forbidden to hear.

"You mean your brothers and the Chipettes? Oh Alvin, we all know that it wasn't your fault. It was the stupid girl, oh what's her name oh yeah Brittany." Lil replied steadily clutching her golden furred hands into fists. "If I ever see her hurt you again I swear,"

"No, it wasn't her fault," Alvin protested, "sure she enforced it by protesting, but it was pretty much me. I just didn't want to admit to my mistake before." Lil gave him a reassuring smile, rubbing his shoulders softly.

"No," She whispered in that hypnotizing like voice that could sway you and make you think what she wanted, "it isn't your fault, it's hers." Alvin knew she had persuasive powers, but he always fell into her trap and charms. His eyes nearly rolled up in delight as he shut them and shivered in relaxation.

"Oh Lil, you know I can't argue with you." Alvin said back as he slowly led her into his Living Room.

"Unlike that Brittany witch, oh and Alvin, it's been two years since we met and became best friends! Yay!" Lil exclaimed, clapping her hands in excitement.

"Yeah, great," Alvin replied in a saddened tone. Good thing he was an actor, otherwise he may have looked like he was faking his smile, like he was. He didn't know why he felt so weird around her! Sure he liked her, but what was that feeling? Maybe it was because he felt as though she could get her mind off of Brittany, or because he thought he found another girl, but he just didn't feel right around her. It was as if…

"Lil, mind if I go get some… err.., cakes and snacks like that to celebrate?" Alvin asked as he slowly backed away and out of her grip. He bumped the half closed door with his side and it swung open slightly. Running from sight, he went to the one store everyone can rely on: Cakes 'n Sweets.

At Cakes 'n Sweets:

Alvin opened the door slowly hearing the bell ring silently as it echoed in his ears. His mind took him back to a time, ten years ago when he was ten. He and Brittany were walking side by side, smiling as they looked at the cakes. It was Dave's birthday that day, and they wanted to surprise him with a surprise party. He smiled at her, his hand almost going into her own, feeling her body heat when…

"Alvin look at this one! Isn't it just perfect, when I grow up that's going to be my Wedding Cake." Brittany shouted running up to a glass case that was crystal clear. She pointed to a vanilla three layer cake with perfect snow white frosting with pink just at the top. Her sky blue eyes lit up with excitement as she looked at him.

"Yes. It's a good cake if you like that sort of thing. Anyway, can we find a birthday cake?" Alvin asked, although his eyes were glued to the cake. Alvin remembered think that when he got married to Brittany, which he secretly hoped he could, that he would buy that very cake.

Alvin blinked back to the present, ten years later. Maybe he could look at a look alike cake. He walked to the glass to see that it was gone, he frowned. There usually was a look alike cake in that spot! All that was left was few lonely crumbs. A tall human girl with long wavy raven hair with dark emerald eyes walked past, she wore the usual workers uniform. It had a white shirt with dark pink letters that slightly slanted off to the side that read: Cake 'n Sweets.

"Hey!" Alvin cried out, waving his arms. The worker turned, her eyes searching for a tall high pitched man, but instead she just found air. Then she looked down at the dirt covered floor and her eyes widened like she just saw a dinosaur walking down the street.

"ALIVIN OH MY GOSH YOU'RE STANDING THERE! OH MY GOSH I LOVE YOUR MUSIC…err…. I mean yes sir, how may I help you?" She said, her mouth so wide that Alvin thought her bottom jaw would fall off. He didn't know how she could talk like that, practice perhaps?

"Um… do you know who bought that cake?"

"I did." He heard a voice say from behind him, and then he saw it. A female chipmunk in a long sparkling pink dress that danced in the light, she had a small light pink nose, and her eyes were big and sky blue. She had a ponytail on top of her head, her auburn hair matched her auburn fur perfectly.

"Brittany?" Alvin said in awe, his eyes were wide in shock and excitement,

"Alvin?"
