Ch. 9- We Love You J
"Bath time!" J said.
"Awe, why?" Alvin complained "I wanna watch Madam Raya!"
He turned the TV on but J turned it off.
"Your brothers are already upstairs getting ready for the bath like good little chipmunks" J says.
Alvin folded his arms.
"C'mon, boxer shorts, upstairs" J told him.
"Stop calling me that!" Alvin nearly yelled.
"Nope." J responded "It's bath time"
"Fine. But you gotta catch me first!" Alvin said and ran off.
"Alvin, don't be difficult or you'll get a bad report" stated J.
She chased him around the house.
J caught him and he squirmed.
"I gotcha! Can you please come for a bath now?" J asked.
"Okay" he gave up.
"Good boy" J said and kissed his cheek and he giggled, blushing slightly.
She carried him upstairs.
The boys got undressed and in the bath.
J waited for them on the other side of the curtain, given she didn't want to see more than she has to, and the chipmunks agreed.
Simon turned the water off.
"Towels, please" Theodore said.
J handed them towels in their signature colors and they wrapped them around their waists before letting J take them out of the bath.
Alvin was first.
She took him out of the bath.
"That's one cute little chipmunk" she said.
"Hey, I'm the awesome one" Alvin stated "Get it right!"
"Alvin!" Simon scolded.
J only laughed.
"Alright" J says "one awesome little chipmunk."
She kissed his nose before setting him down.
He chuckled.
Next was Theodore.
He was taken out of the tub.
"One cute little chipmunk" she says.
J kissed his nose and he giggled.
She set him next to Alvin.
Last was Simon.
J took him out as well.
"And last, but most certainly not least, one brilliant little chipmunk" she said.
She kissed his nose and he laughed.
J set him down beside Theodore.
"And I have your glasses, Sweetie" J placed his glasses over his eyes "I de-fogged them for you."
Simon blinked twice.
"Thanks, J" Simon thanked.
"No prob" J returned
"Now go get in your PJs on and tell me when I can come in, k?" J instructed.
"k" the boys replied.
The three chipmunks held up their towels as they exited the bathroom.
J waited outside the chipmunks' bedroom to be invited in.
After the boys finished getting ready for bed, they invited J back into the room.
She tucked them each in, kissing their foreheads.
"G'night, boxer shorts" J said, pulling the covers to his chin and kissing his forehead.
"J would you stop…" Alvin cut himself off.
He learned to like J calling him 'boxer shorts.'
"I love you boys. Sweet dreams" says J as she headed for the door.
"I'm happy you are our babysitter" Theodore told her.
"Yeah!" the others added.
"Me too" J agreed "You're some great kids."
"Even me?" Alvin asked, sitting up.
"Even you, boxer shorts" she giggled and shut off the light.
Alvin smiled as she left.
Alvin laid back on his bed.
"J is awesome" he said.
"Yeah, she's always there when you need her" Simon stated.
"And she hasn't gotten mad at us for something Alvin did" Theodore added.
"That's because I haven't done anything" Alvin replied.
"Yes, you have. One, you gave her a hard time getting out of bed for school. Two, you were rude. Tree you said bad things about me. Four, you scared her, all of us, when we couldn't find you at Hide and Seek. And five, you wrecked the living room and knocked her out." Simon reminded.
"One, I'm not a morning person. Two, I was not rude, just right. Three, I didn't know you were awake. Four, I got stuck. And five, it was an accident" Alvin said.
Simon rolled his eyes.
"Well, she said she loves us, like no other babysitter has, not even Jenny. Probably because of Alvin" Theodore pointed out "And we didn't return it."
"She told me she loved me earlier today to cheer me up, but I didn't say it back either" Simon confessed.
They felt guilty.
"Do you think we made her feel bad?" Theodore asked.
"Maybe" Simon says.
"But do I love J" Alvin said.
"I love her too" Simon agreed.
"I love her three" Theodore added.
"We can tell her tomorrow" Simon suggested.
The next morning, the three boys woke up to a yummy smell coming from the kitchen.
They followed it to a big plate of pancakes on the table.
"Good morning boys" J greeted.
"Morning" they returned and sat down.
"Sleep well?" asked J.
"We're sorry" The chipmunks apologized, looking down.
"What are you sorry for?" J asked, confused.
"You said you loved us and we didn't say it back" Simon says.
"No other babysitter ever told us they loved us cause I usually mess it up" Alvin added.
"But we love you J and we're sorry we didn't say it sooner" Theodore finished.
J laughed and hugged the boys.
"You don't have to be sorry. It doesn't matter" J said.
"Of course it does!" Alvin argued.
"Don't tell me you didn't feel the least bit hurt when we didn't return it" Simon says.
"Okay, maybe a little. But I can't just expect you to say 'I love you' to your babysitter who you only met two days ago" J confessed.
"We love you J!" the boys told her.
"I love you too" J returned.
I'm not done with this story; there will be more... I'm just a little stuck. I want chapter 10 to be about the play date with the Chipettes, having them getting to know J better. And 11 having Dave come back. I'm planning on chapter 11 to be the last one. If any of you have ideas, please tell me, you will always get credit!
