Later that night about nine Alvin came bopping into the Chipette's house like he always does .He opened the door ,followed his brother Theodore .They missed their brother and wanted to say good night so they wanted to stop by before bed .As they came in they noticed the house was empty .
"Simon ",Alvin called to his brother finding no one at home .His brother Theodore followed him .They walked into the kitchen ,finding it a mess.
"Ellie would never leave the place looking like this Alvin ",Theodore says to his brother "it would drive her crazy "
"You're right Theodore ",Alvin looked around finding only the kitchen out of place ."It's after nine I don't think they would go out this late ."
"Gee Alvin you don't think something bad happened do you",Theodore says becoming cornered about his brother and their best friends .
"Maybe some green eyed monster broke in and destroyed the kitchen and took them back to their home plant "Alvin said clearly dramatizing the issue .Theodore hides behind Alvin .
"Maybe we should go tell Dave ",Theodore said to his brother .They started running toward their house yelling Dave's name .Dave opened the front door hearing his son yelling .
"What's wrong boys?",Dave saw how ecstatic they were acting .
"Simon and the girls are gone and the kitchen is mess Dave "Alvin said ecstaticly
"I am sure there is some logical explanation Alvin",Dave smiled down at his son .Maybe he was a little concerned but he didn't want to show panic in front of his other two sons.
"Something bad could have happened to my brother and you don't care ",Alvin says getting emotional .
"I am sure nothing bad happened Alvin but we can't jump to conclusions ",Dave says looking down at his son .As Dave is talking Alvin turns around to Simon and the girls walking up the street both him and Theodore go running to him .As they reach him ,they hug his waist .
"Simon ,thank goodness your ok",Theodore says hugging him ."We missed you "Dave came walking up behind them smiling ,watching his sons hugging their brother .He reached over joining in the hug .
"I missed you so much",Alvin said hugging him .
"I missed you guys to",Simon said ,hugging them back .
"I guess it's time for you to go home Simon and go back to being you ",Brittany smiled over at them .The girls tried to slip away to not be part of the reunion but as they are slipping off Dave noticed something off.
"Eleanor what on earth happened to your forehead .",Dave bent down ,holding her face in his hand looking at the small gash on her head checking it over .
"It's nothing to worry about Dave ",Eleanor smiled at Dave slipping away along with her sisters .Dave looked at Simon .
"It's good to have you back Simon ",Dave said ,hugging him " What happened to Eleanor's head ",He asked his son not dropping the subject since she slipped away not giving him the information .
"It just a little football injury ",Simon said chuckling .
"A football injury "Dave looked kind of confused "were you and the girls playing football ?"Dave asked becoming interested in this story .
"Well about that Dave Eleanor kind of tried out for football team and she made the team ."Simon smiled at his dad. Dave listened as they walk inside .
"Eleanor playing football",Dave wasn't sure he could believe this one .Dave put his arm around his son as they walked inside the house glad to have him back home.
The next morning the kids stood at the bus stop Simon back to his kidself .Dave stood behind them .
"So girls ",Simon said to them as they stood waiting on the bus "I been thinking of some ideas for your jewelry box ."Simon began
"You're still going to make it for us Simon " Jeanette asked shyly .
"I did promise ",Simon said ,looking over at Jeanette .
"A jewelry box really "Alvin said ,getting interested in this subject .
"That's nice Simon ",Theodore said ,smiling at them glad to have his brother back .
"I think I might just have to buy four front row seats to the recital ",Dave said smiling .
"Gee ,thanks Dave",The girls said together ,running over him he put his arm around them hugging them back.
"I was also thinking about getting season tickets to the football games " Dave said ,eyeing Eleanor "I heard there was a girl on the team this year .I was wondering if she was any good "
Eleanor eyed Simon before looking at Dave .Before she could say anything the bus pulled up while they were still talking and the kids got on .Dave waved good bye as it was driving away .
Jeanette sat next to Simon "I am glad your back to yourself Simon .I missed you being you "She hugged him tight .
"I am glad to be back to "Simon said hugging Jeanette back .Jeanette blushed at him and he smiled back at her as they rode towards school together .
