I know, I know... Another short chapter. I'm sorry for the short length of these first chapters. Please read and enjoy this chapter either way.
-SawyerSeville19
After getting back to their hotel, Alvin and his brothers were all worn out from the excitement of the concert and their crazed fans.
"It's great being a rockstar," Alvin said as he removed his shoes and set them by his bed. He climbed onto his bed and laid back.
"Yeah," Theodore exclaimed as he gathered up some more comfortable clothes. "I'm going to take a shower." Simon nodded and watched as his baby brother went into the conjoined bathroom and shut the door behind him. He sighed and lay back against his pillows and closed his eyes.
Alvin sat up and removed his jacket and T-shirt, now wearing his short sleeved shirt and black jeans. He smiled in content and then looked over at Simon, seeing him still fully dressed. He frowned and went over to his brother.
"Simon," he called, standing beside his bed. Simon looked over at him. "Aren't you hot?" Simon shrugged and looked at the door, closing his eyes back. "At least take your shoes and jacket off, looking at you is making me hot."
Simon smirked and looked over at his older brother. Alvin realized what he said and frowned, blushing a bit.
"You know what I meant," he defended. Simon sat up and humored Alvin, removing his shoes and jacket. He set his shoes down by his bed and folded his jacket and set it aside. "Hey, Simon. I have a question."
Simon smiled as his body started cooling off and nodded towards Alvin to get on his bed. Alvin did so and sat cross legged. "What's your question?"
"Why did you look at Drake the way you did earlier?" Alvin asked. Simon let out a breath and thought for a moment.
"I don't know... It just seems like there's something weird about him. Don't you think?" Simon asked.
"Well," Alvin began. "I didn't notice anything weird about him. And you know me, I notice a lot of weird things about people. Remember Mr. Talbot?" Simon nodded. How could he forget? Alvin had been persistent about their neighbor and old principal being a werewolf, and he had been right. Of course that's only a handful or rights out of about a hundred assumptions.
There was silence between them for a moment and Alvin asked, "Why do you think there's something weird about him? He seemed normal to me."
"I don't know really. It's hard to explain," Simon said. Alvin nodded and got off Simon's bed.
"I'm gonna take a nap," he informed his brother. Simon nodded and lay back once more with a sigh.
Alvin climbed onto his bed and lay down as well. It was weird having Simon of all people thinking something was weird about someone who appeared so normal. Had he missed something? Maybe he should look into it some more. Simon didn't even know himself what he saw that was off about Drake. It was like he sensed it or something.
Alvin let out a breath and closed his eyes. He was too tired to think about all of this right now. Maybe after a good nap and dinner, he would have more energy to think of this stuff.
**Simon's Dream**
Simon walked alongside his brothers inside the dark house. "I have a bad feeling about this," he admitted, feeling a cold shiver travel down his spine.
"Oh chill out, Simon," Alvin said, waving his brother's uneasiness off. "There's nothing weird about Drake. It's just you overthinking things like you always do.
Simon glared at his older brother and Theodore came to his aid. "Alvin, don't be so mean. How can you not tell that there's something weird about this guy's house?"
Again, Alvin waved them off.
"Alvin I'm serious," Simon insisted, finding himself determined to get Alvin to believe him. Alvin looked at him with an arched eyebrow.
"If there's anything weird in this house, it's you," Alvin said. Simon's breath caught and he was speechless.
**End Dream**
Alvin watched his brother in lightwieght annoyed silence. Ever since they woke up he's been quiet. Towards him, at least. To be blunt, he didn't understand nor did he like this new change in attitude towards him. Especially since last he checked, he did nothing to deserve it.
Simon found he was secondguessing himself when he told Alvin of his suspicions. What if Alvin really didn't believe him? Maybe behind his back he was laughing at him at how stupid he was being.
When did Alvin's opinion of him get to be so important to him?
He brushed the last thought aside. Alvin's opinion of him was less than moderate. Alvin didn't care about him anymore than he did about Theodore or Dave. Wait... why did he think Alvin would care about him any more than the others? He sighed. He was forgetting the point of where his thoughts were supposed to go...
"Simon," Alvin called as he walked over to his brother. Simon looked at Alvin as he set his plate onto the tray to be picked up by room service.
"Alvin," Simon replied with a nod in his brother's direction. Alvin rolled his eyes and grabbed Simon's wrist.
"I need to talk to you," he said and led him into their shared bedroom. Theodore wasn't in the room with them. Once inside, Alvin shut the door and released his brother's wrist from his hand and faced him. "Why are you avoiding me all of a sudden?"
Simon was reluctant to answer straight away, but he needed to know where Alvin's mind truly stood with what they had discussed a few hours ago. "I uh... I had some thoughts a bit ago..."
Alvin folded his arms with a huff. "What are you talking about, Simon?"
"Alvin, do you believe what I told you earlier, or do you think I'm just being stupid?" Simon asked.
Alvin looked shocked for a brief moment before he smiled and wrapped his arm around his taller brother. "Simon, I think what you told me isn't crazy or stupid, or even weird."
Simon was more than releived to hear that statement.
"Is that what you were worried about?" Alvin asked.
Simon rubbed the back of his neck. Alvin smiled.
"You're talking to me, Si. I come up with out of the ordinary things all the time. If anyone would understand these things you're feeling or experiencing, it'd be me."
Simon smiled at Alvin. "Thanks Alvin."
Again sorry for the length. Each chapter has its own importance and as this story moves on, the length of each chapter will grow. Please review for me, thanks.
