Chapter 4: Discovering the Trap

The Chipmunks and the Chipettes were at the park enjoying themselves. Theodore was pushing Eleanor on the swings, Simon and Jeanette were working on some homework, and Alvin and Brittany were having a civilized conversation.

Then, Alvin asked the question.

"What do you love about me?" Alvin asked

"I only love you no more than reason." She answered "What about you?'

"Same" Alvin said. "But Simon and Theodore swore you were desperately in love with me"

Theodore stopped the swing as the siblings turned ready to spring the BIG trap

"Well, Jeanette and Eleanor said you were madly in love with ME!" Brittany argued

"So you DON'T love me?"

"Only as a friend" Brittany said

"Come on Brittany. That's not what this love poem says" Jeanette said pulling out said love poem

"Jeanette!" Brittany screeched as she made to grab it but Alvin got to it first and read the poem silently to himself

"Don't worry Brittany" Simon said with the same smirk his girlfriend had on her face as he pulled out another piece of paper. "You weren't the only one forced to realize your feelings as Alvin wrote this song for you"

"Simon!" Alvin exclaimed as Eleanor and Theodore laughed at how they pulled something over the oldest members of the groups.

Brittany took the song and read it

"You really think this Alvin?" Brittany asked

"Well…yeah" Alvin admitted remembering how he had poured his heart out into the song "And…you really mean this poem?"

"Yeah" she admitted reluctantly. "I guess we ARE made for each other."

"So…wanna go to the movies? Triple date?"

"Sure" she said. "But no horror flicks"

"Done" Alvin said turning to the younger siblings. "I can't believe you four DID that!"

"You two helped us with our love lives. We were just returning the favor" Simon said

The six musicians left the park and went to the theater.

"So where did you guys get the idea to tell us that the other loves us?" Brittany asked his sister.

"I've been wondering that the entire time" Theodore said turning to the smartest two of the group

"From William Shakespeare's play Much Ado About Nothing" they chorused (A/N There's the answer to the challenge)

The two lead singers turned to each other.

"I always knew reading Shakespeare would be hazardous." Alvin said. "Gave our siblings an edge"

"I know" Brittany agreed "But it makes one wonder what other ideas his plays can come up with"

"With you two as the masterminds, we don't wanna know" Eleanor said

The six laughed as they headed to the theater.

The End.

A/N: Congratulations to all the reviewers who guessed the correct answer, especially Bookworm0913 who was the first to guess in the review (though I would also like to thank Luiz4200 for being the first to review). Another who got it right was DemigodWitch96. Thank you to all who reviewed and who played my little game of 'Guess the source' (if you want to call it that)

I know it was a short story, but I wasn't quite sure where I wanted to go with this because they're too young to go through what the characters in the actual play went through.
