Another chapter completed! Sorry for the wait. So, I have been using WiFi to get access to the internet. Well, as my Winter Break is coming to a close, I won't have proper WiFi access. Which therefore means not as speedy updates again. I know, it sucks for me too. I enjoy writing and letting you all read it. But I promise these stories will be finished. Just wait for me, please?
Thanks, now read on and review for me!

Simon lay awake as his brothers slept. He couldn't do it. He couldn't allow himself to fall asleep tonight. Every night he's had that dream. Similar storyline, but each time it was different. Different things took place and he always woke up after being bitten. Each night too, Alvin was the one who woke up with him. He highly doubted his brother was a vampire, but he also couldn't grasp the moral of what the dreams meant.
He was beginning to realize that he may be developing feelings for Alvin. That or they were already developed and were showing through his obvious submissions with Vampire Alvin in his dreams.
He sighed and rubbed his eyes that were growing sore from being open more hours than they should have been. He was tired, that was a given, but he didn't want to succumb to those dreams tonight. He knew he needed to get to sleep now especially because they had that big performance for Drake coming up later the coming evening.
He lowered his hands and stared at the darkness that was the ceiling. He heard movement on the bed close to his and closed his eyes as footsteps padded their way over to his bed. "I know you're awake, Si," Alvin said and Simon shivered at hearing the voice at night. It was almost like in his dreams, yet lacking the seductive pur. He figured Alvin's voice still had an effect on him no matter how it was used.
Simon looked over at his brother, seeing a blur of tan and his sparkling ocean eyes. "What are you doing up?"
Alvin climbed onto his bed and lay by his left side and watched him. "Why are you still up?" he asked. Simon looked away from Alvin and back at the ceiling. Alvin lay under Simon's blanket with him, causing his younger brother to blush hotly.
There was silence between them for a few seconds and then Alvin spoke up. "You know, you've been staying up for the past few nights. You know it's bad for you to do that, right?"
"I know," Simon said and rubbed at his eyes once more. Alvin watched him with a smile.
"Is it because of your nightmares?" he asked. "You've been having them every night up until you stopped sleeping altogether."
Simon lowered his hands and looked over at Alvin. "How did you know I wasn't sleeping?" Alvin lay onto his side and faced Simon.
"Well, I noticed the first time you weren't sleeping well when you looked extra tired. And then I stayed up a little late that next night and waited to see if you were going to sleep. You weren't. I kinda figured it out."
Simon nodded and looked away. Alvin had been watching him? He knew it shouldn't affect him at all, but he found it almost exciting having his brother's attention on him so much.
Alvin propped himself up on his elbow and waited for Simon to bring his attention back to him once more. When he finally did, he said, "I plan on waiting here until you fall asleep, you know."
Simon's eyes widened and he scratched the back of his head. "Alvin, I think you'd be better off just getting to sleep yourself. I'm not even tired, you'd just be wasting your time."
Alvin chuckled. "Not tired? You rubbed your eyes not even two minutes ago, Si. And I'm not leaving until you're asleep." Simon let out a breath and covered his face with his blanket. To which, Alvin did the same and made his brother look at him "Come on, Si. You need your rest just as much as Theodore and I do."
Simon sighed. "I just don't want to have that nightmare again..."
"I know Si, but you need your sleep. If you want, I'll stay here beside you until morning. That way if you show signs of having a nightmare, I'll wake you, ok?"
Simon gave this idea some thought, but his exhausted mind couldn't think too much on it. He yawned and nodded, curling onto his side and closing his eyes. "Ok..." he said softly, falling asleep almost immediately. Alvin chuckled and closed his eyes as well, drifting to sleep a few minutes later.
**At the After Party**
"Yes!" Alvin sang into his mic. "You know da Chipmunks! Bringin' it different, every time!" He swung his left arm out and towards the back of him, motioning to their female back-up singers. "And girls loving da 'Munks!"
As they performed, their host Drake walked silently amongst the partygoers who were jumping up and down screaming and singing along. He easily avoided being hit accidentally or shoved due to his grace and light walk. His eyes never left the singing trio as they sang their song.
He examined each one of them, finding things he liked about them and things he didn't like. Only one truly caught his interest and maintained it. This was a rare thing for him, and he knew this one was special.
"If you want a little bit of this and a little bit of that, come join the chipmunks, we hot like that," Alvin and his brother sang. "If you want a little bit of this and a little bit of that, come join the chipmunks, we hot like that!"
Simon stood centered as he sang, "Girl you are making me crazy! I love it when you callin' me "Baby"! Can't seem to get you outta my head, girl! 'Cause I'm really ready to make you my only one! They say we too young for lovin'! That's not how it is for me and my brothers! I'm ready to get to know you! I'm gonna make it hot and show you ly oh!"
Drake stood near the back of the room and watched them perform and he nodded to himself. Yes, he was the one. His next victim. His next prodigy. He smiled to himself as their song came to an end. Tonight was going to be an extra eventful night.
"I keep you going all night!" they sang and the partiers jumped up and screamed as they applauded them.
As the brothers went to get something to drink, Simon felt like he was being watched. A shiver wan down his spine and he walked closer to his brothers. Alvin looked over at him in question but got nothing in response. He would talk to him when it wasn't so loud.
They each drank some punch as their host came up behind them. "Wonderful performance." he said, startling them. They each turned around and faced him. Alvin felt Simon tense beside him. "That was a marvelous little concert. I may have to pay you three more than I had planned to."
Alvin smirked. "Well, we don't come cheap." Drake chuckled and Simon hid a little more further behind his older brother. Alvin didn't know what was so weird about Drake but his instincts had him stand a little more in front of Simon anyway. Maybe it was the fear he could feel Simon giving off.
"Yes, indeed you don't," Drake agreed. "Well, after this party comes to an end, I will be looking forward to giving you three the money you truly deserve."
"Sounds like a plan," Alvin agreed. Drake nodded and sauntered off, disappearing in the crowd gracefully. Alvin faced Simon and Theodore and then looked around. "Follow me," he instructed and the three began weaving their way across the room and soon ended up outside the room the party was in.
They climbed up the stairs and sat down at the top one.
"Ok Simon, tell us what's got you so on edge with Drake," Alvin said. Theodore blinked in surprise and looked at his brother. This was his first time hearing about it.
"I-I don't know..." Simon said. Alvin arched an eyebrow.
"Simon, there has to be some reason why," he insisted. Simon shrugged.
"I can't say for sure, Alvin. It's just something about him overall," Simon said.
"Well," Alvin began and stood, his brothers following the action out of reflex. "The best way to get to know a guy is by looking around his house."
"What?" Simon asked. "Alvin we can't just wander around his house!" Alvin looked at Simon.
"Well I don't know what you're feeling so weird about, Si. And quite frankly you're starting to sound a little crazy." He smirked at Simon's glare.
"I am not crazy! You said you didn't think I was!" Simon snapped sharply.
"Well, why don't we look around and see what's so creepy about our host then, hmm?" Alvin asked. Simon growled under his breath.
"Fine then, after you," he said firmly. Alvin smiled and led the way down the dark hallway.
Oh boy, they're wandering around Drake's house now. Hmm, seems Drake has picked his favorite out of the three as well. Next chapter will be up as soon as possible. Some time in January hopefully. Please bear with me. Review! They help motivate me!
