Thursday, 16th of May, 7:30am, At Dave's house
Dave had just knocked on both bedroom doors and shouted for everyone to get up and ready for school
While Simon Jeanette Theodore and Eleanor were getting ready in one bedroom, in the other bedroom not much was happening
Alvin and Brittany had woken up but Brittany didn't want to go to school today, she wanted to stop at home with Alvin and take care of him
Brittany got out of bed, left her and Alvin's bedroom and went to Dave's bedroom. She knocked on the door and called "Dave" before entering
"Brittany? Why are you not getting ready for school like everyone else?" Asked Dave
"Dave...um...I don't want to go to school today...." Said Brittany in a worried voice
"What? Why? You have to go to school, especially when your exams are in 5 to 6 weeks" replied Dave
"I want to stop at home and look after Alvin" said Brittany quickly
Dave went down on his knees and smiled at Brittany
"I know you care about Alvin and do want to look after him, but you have to go to school today" explained Dave
"Please let me stop at home, I promise to take care of Alvin and to do some school work...well revision, while I'm at home...please trust me Dave" begged Brittany
Dave went silent for a few seconds and eventually he spoke up
"Ok fine, I will trust you to stop at home on your own with Alvin today and do some revision while your looking after him" explained Dave
Brittany was surprised! She didn't think Dave would say, yes!
"Oh wow, thanks so much Dave, your an amazing adoptive Dad" called Brittany giving Dave a hug
"No problem, I trust you Brittany and I also trust you and Alvin won't be 'doing anything' you shouldn't while we are all out" called Dave
"Dave! Alvin is ill, I'm not going to do anything like that with him" replied Brittany
"Anyway, I will get ready for work and drop the others off at school, just promise me you will behave yourself" said Dave
"I promise and thanks again Dave" called Brittany leaving Dave's bedroom
Brittany went and sat on the bed in her and Alvin's bedroom and smiled to herself
Alvin noticed and spoke up
"What are you so happy about?" Asked Alvin
"It's a surprise, I will tell you soon though" replied Brittany with a giggle
"Oh god, this will be something stupid again.....like a joke or something.....Brittany likes to make stupid jokes" Alvin thought to himself
1 hour later...
It had just turned 8:30am and everyone was leaving the house for school and Dave going to work
Brittany heard Jeanette and Eleanor asking Dave "where is Brittany? Isn't she coming to school with us?" and Dave replying with "no she is doing revision at home and looking after Alvin"
Once everyone had left the house, Brittany squeaked with excitement
"This is Amazing! I am with Alvin all day by myself and no one is around to stop us been together or even around each other" Brittany thought to herself
Brittany went up to her and Alvin's bedroom and saw Alvin in bed
"I'm so happy! Everyone has left the house and it is just us two and our baby chipmunks in the house all day" replied Brittany in a happy voice
"Really? Wow, that's amazing!" Called Alvin in a happy voice
"Is that the surprise?" Asked Alvin
Brittany nodded and smiled at Alvin and then laid next to him on the bed
"How is your ankle this morning?" Asked Brittany
"It still hurts a little but I will be fine....I just need to walk around the house a little, but not too much as I don't want to use my foot too much" replied Alvin
"Don't worry I will assist you" said Brittany with a giggle
"Aw thanks, am glad you are here with me....taking care of me and stuff" explained Alvin in a happy voice
"It's what girlfriend's do when their boyfriend is injured" replied Brittany with another giggle
"Do you want anything for breakfast?" Asked Brittany
"Yea, if you don't mind?" Asked Alvin
"No of course I don't, I am looking after YOU for the day don't forget" Brittany pointed out
"Can I have a few waffles and some apple juice please?" Asked Alvin
"Of course, will be back in a few minutes" replied Brittany giving Alvin a kiss on the head before leaving the bedroom
Brittany went downstairs and into the kitchen. She put a few waffles in the toaster and poured out a glass of apple juice
"I better get some food made for the baby chipmunks too, they must be hungry" Brittany thought to herself
Brittany got some food out for the baby chipmunks and put the food in a bowl and on the tray
After the waffles were done, Brittany put them on a plate and on the tray and put the glass of apple juice on the tray too
Once breakfast was done, Brittany got the tray and went back upstairs to the bedroom
"Wow, that was quick" said Alvin in a surprised voice
"Well I am a girl" joked Brittany
Brittany placed the tray on the bed side and sat down next to Alvin
"Do you need help sitting up?" Asked Brittany
"No, I can sit up in bed don't worry" replied Alvin
Alvin tried to move but he was putting more pressure on his feet and his ankle was giving him pain
"Yea I need help..." Called Alvin
Brittany put her arms under Alvin's armpits and slowly lifted him, trying not to pull Alvin and course him pain
"Thanks for that Brittany" called Alvin with a smile
"No problem, here is your breakfast" replied Brittany passing Alvin a plate of waffles and a glass of apple juice
"Thanks again, didn't you get any breakfast?" Asked Alvin
"No, I am not hungry right now" replied Brittany
"What's in that bowl then?" Asked Alvin in confusion
"That's the food for the baby chipmunks silly, I'm going to feed them now like we do every morning" replied Brittany with a giggle
After Alvin had eaten his breakfast and Brittany had feed the baby chipmunks, Alvin tried getting out of bed
"Where are you going? You need to rest in bed" called Brittany
"I'm just going to have a quick walk around the house that's all, you know....to keep my muscles in my ankle working" explained Alvin
Brittany sighed and stood up
"Grab hold of my hand and we will walk together" called Brittany
Alvin grabbed Brittany's hand and together they walked out of the bedroom
"How are you feeling walking?" Asked Brittany
"It hurts but I need to walk a little..." Replied Alvin
"Oh I don't know what to do....I don't want Alvin to be in pain walking around but if he doesn't walk around then he will be recovering at home longer..." Brittany thought to herself
After 10 minutes of walking around the house, Brittany walked Alvin back to bed and Alvin looked tired
"Are you ok?" Asked Brittany in a worried voice
"Yea...I just need to sleep, you can go and watch a film if you want? I will be ok" explained Alvin
"Don't be silly Alvin, I am going to stop with you all day to make sure you are ok" replied Brittany
After a few minutes of silence, Alvin spoke up again
"Brittany, I'm going to have to have a quick sleep....I'm sorry about that" called Alvin
"Don't be sorry Alvin, if you need to sleep then you need to sleep, I will get a practice paper to do in here while your sleeping" replied Brittany
"Oh ok, thanks for understanding" called Alvin with a smile
Brittany got on her knees and reached under the bed to grab her school bag
She pulled out the English practice paper, what Mr Parry had given her to do and a couple of pens
"I will attempt this practice paper.....if you need anything just shout me over" called Brittany
There was no reply
Brittany looked over at Alvin and he was already asleep
"Aw, I feel so sorry for him, I hope he gets better soon...." Brittany thought to herself
With that, Brittany let Alvin sleep while she attempted her English practice paper...
