Three chapters in three days? What is this madness?
Chapter Four:Limos and airplanes.
Theodore walked in the front door to the Seville household around 10:30 A.M. He found Alvin and Dave hugging in the living room. "Alvin... you better come back to us", Dave said as he held his son close. "I will, Dave", Alvin broke the hug and looked his father in the eye. Theodore tried to sneak by with out interrupting their moment. Alvin caught Theodore out of the corner of his eye, "Good morning." Theodore smiled warmly, "Good morning." Dave gave Alvin a pat on the back before leaving the room and heading for his bedroom to get ready for work, stopping to say good morning to Theodore," Good morning, Theodore." Theodore smiled at Dave, "Morning Dave."
Theodore approached Alvin, "He looked like he took it well." Alvin rubbed the back of his neck," Ya... Say Theo, you know how you said we should all six do something?" Theodore nodded. "Well Ellie and I talked about it last night and I think I know what we should do. Will you do me a favor, and go get Simon so we can talk about it?" "Sure", Theodore headed up the stairs as he wondered what Alvin had in mind.
Theodore knocked on Simon's door, "Come in", Simon's voice came from the other side of the door. Theodore entered the room to find Simon siting at his desk reading a book, "Simon, Alvin wants to talk to us about something." Simon looked up from his book before closing it and setting it on his bedside table. Simon got up and walked over to Theodore, "What does he want to talk to us about?" Theodore began to walk back to the living room with Simon in toe, "I don't know but it has something to do with us all doing something together."
Theodore and Simon arrived in the living room to find Dave had came back into the room and was finishing getting ready while talking to Alvin. Alvin clapped his hands, "Good now that you're all here we can talk... Eleanor should be talking to Miss Miller and the girls about the same thing right about now." Alvin took in a deep breath and smiled, "I think the eight of us should take a trip to Las Vegas, this weekend..." Simon rubbed his chin as the began to put the pieces together, "Why Las Vegas?" Alvin chuckled lightly and spoke in a quiet tone, "Well you see... Eleanor and I.. are getting married." "What?", Simon and Dave proclaimed at the same time. Theodore smiled, "Congratulations!" "Are you sure about this, Alvin? You're both still so young", Dave had to sit down as he took everything in. "I know we are Dave, but we talked it over for quite a while last night and we're sure", Alvin had a strong tone to his voice. "So will you all be there?", Alvin looked at his family with hopeful eyes. "Of course we will, Alvin", Theodore walked over to his brother and gave him a big hug. Alvin broke the hug and looked at Simon, "Si?" Simon adjusted his glasses and smiled, " Why wouldn't I be there?" Alvin smiled at him and then turned his gaze to Dave, who still had the same look frozen on his face, "Dave?" Dave shook his head to clear his mind and made eye contact with Alvin, "I wouldn't miss it for the world." Alvin smiled as Theodore hugged him again.
**Friday**
Theodore was helping Jeanette finish packing, "Wow, can you believe that we're going to Vegas to watch Alvin and Eleanor get married?" Jeanette pulled the zipper closed on her last bag and let out a sigh of relief, "This is all happening so fast", Jeanette plopped down on her bed. Theodore sat next to her, "I know." "How long until we leave?", Jeanette asked. Theodore looked at the clock, it read 9:00 A.M, "Our flight leaves at noon so we will probably be leaving in an hour and a half." Jeanette stood up and grabbed one of her bags, "Well let's get these down by the door and get ready to go, "I still need to take a shower..." Theodore grabbed the other bag and they headed down to the living room, the house was quiet, "Where is everyone?" Jeanette sat her bag down next to the other bags, most of which were Brittany's, and Theodore did the same, " Brittany insisted that she and Eleanor go out and get their hair and nails done and Miss Miller drove them. I managed to get out of it by promising I would get it done in Vegas." Theodore smiled mischievously, "So we're here alone?" Jeanette raised her eye brow, "Yes." "Because I was thinking I could use a shower too." Jeanette blushed lightly, "But what if they come home?" "Well we'll just have to be fast then, won't we?", Theodore took Jeanette's hand and lead her upstairs.
**A hour and a half later**
The group of eight were dressed and waiting to for their ride, which Alvin had set up, in the Miller living room. The door bell rang and Alvin got up to answer it. He opened the door to reveal and slender man, who was about Dave's height, with a black goatee and a black cap on, which he tilted, "Morning" Alvin patted the man on the back, "Rob! Good to see you again." Simon let out a sigh, "A limo, Alvin? Just to take us to the airport?" Alvin smiled at Simon, "I know I'm not the only one who misses them from before we decided to stop touring and focus on school." "You got that right!", Brittany grabbed Simon's hand and pulled him towards the door. Alvin, Theodore and Dave grabbed most of the bags and Rob grabbed the rest, then they headed to limo with Miss Miller, Jeanette and Eleanor in toe. Miss Miller locked the door before catching up with the rest as they finished getting the luggage into the trunk. All eight got into the limo and Rob closed the back door before getting into the diver seat and lowering the window that divided the front from the back, "Are we ready to go?" "Sure are!", Alvin wrapped his arm around Eleanor and nodded to Rob. Rob started the limo and began to drive.
**At the airport**
The group all sat in the terminal and waited for their plane to be ready to take off. "So Alvin what are the sleeping arrangements?", Simon turned to Alvin and asked. "Well I got us five rooms at Mandalay Bay. One for Eleanor and I, one for Brittany and you, one for Teddy and Jeanette and two for Dave and Miss Miller", Alvin nodded to himself in satisfaction.
A female voice came over the loud speaker, "Flight 158 to Las Vegas, now broadening." Alvin looked at his ticket, "That's us! Lets go."
**On the plain**
Theodore sat in his window seat and watched as Las Vegas came into sight. Alvin took hold of Eleanor's hand, "I love you." Eleanor kissed him, "I love you too."
