"Atticus, would you like to stay here with your sister or go next door?" Emily asked her son as she covered up the telephone, she was given a very important call from work. "They're asking your father, myself, and Dave Seville to go to Europe for a business trip starting tomorrow."

"Well, I would like to go and visit Alvin, Simon, and Theodore." Atticus said.

Emily couldn't say anymore, she had to get back on the phone. "Yes, Dave, Atticus will be over and I'll meet you with Patrick at the airport."

"Yes." Atticus said as he was going to spend time with the Chipmunks.

Emily kept talking with Dave on the phone, then would have to hang up and start packing.


"You want anything back from our trip?" Patrick asked his son with a smile.

"Yeah, bar bells." Atticus said.

Patrick laughed a little. "I'll see what I can do."

Jessica was at the top of the stairs, leaning by the banister and folded her arms. "Can I still go out with my friends?"

"Just be sure to take care of the house, Jessie," Emily said to her daughter as she was still on the phone. "We may be in foreign countries, but we'll recognize our house as soon as we come home."

"Don't worry, everything is going to be alright." Jessica said.

Emily got off the phone. "Alright, Atticus, we're going to meet Dave at the airport, we're going to share a taxi, so we'll go to the Seville house and you can hang out with those Chipmunk boys."

"Yay!" Atticus cheered.

"We're gonna need to get up a little early though," Emily told her son. "Why don't you collect a few of your things to take to the Chipmunks' house? I heard there was an arcade uptown, maybe you could go with them and maybe you'll see the Chipettes or Cherry?"

"Yeah." Atticus said as he rushed up to his room to start packing.


"Hey, is Cherry your girlfriend?" Jessica asked as her younger brother dashed off. "You sure spend a lot of time with her..."

"She's not my girlfriend, she's my best friend, there's a difference!" Atticus exclaimed, while he was packing.

"Chill out, dude." Jessica chuckled. "I was only kidding!"

"Still I don't like it when people think that of me and Cherry!" Atticus called back.

Jessica shrugged. "Whatever~" She then went off to her room to call up her friends from school.

Emily and Patrick still kept packing the best they could.


Cherry had the Chipettes in her house, her family kind of looked after them since they didn't have anyone to take care of them as this was before they were adopted by Ms. Miller.

"I'll take you three to that arcade tomorrow." Cherry said as she opened a cupboard and took out a box of cereal for them all to eat out of. "Besides, the Chipmunks and Atticus will be there."

"That's great." Eleanor said.

"Yeah, just great having to see the red cap himself." Brittany said and where she was talking about Alvin.

"Brittany, I didn't think you liked Alvin." Cherry smirked as she filled up three bowls of cereal.

Jeanette put her hand to her mouth, giggling a little.

"Oh, puh-lease, don't make me sick, I don't like him at all." Brittany snorted.

"Sure, Britt." Eleanor had a smirk too.

Cherry came to them with their bowls of cereal and poured the milk in. "Here you go, girls... Sorry Mom and Dad had to work late last night..."

"That's okay, Cherry." Jeanette soothed.

"Yeah." Eleanor and Brittany said.

Cherry decided to sit with them and had a banana. The Chipettes then ate their cereal quietly and neatly. After they had breakfast, the Chipettes each then cleaned their dishes.

Cherry went to throw away her banana peel after she finished eating the yellow fruit. "How do you girls like school so far?"

Eleanor shrugged. "It's okay... I love cooking class though."

"Yeah and I really like the drama club." Brittany said.

"I thought you'd be an expert with that class, Brittany." Cherry slightly teased.

Jeanette took out her purple backpack, deciding to do a little work.

"Girls, you didn't tell me you had homework..." Cherry looked.

"This is just mine, Cherry, I asked for it." Jeanette remarked.

"You need a vacation, Jeanette..." Cherry sighed, she felt like an older sister to the girls sometimes.

"That's exactly what I told her." Brittany said.

"Like we can afford a vacation..." Jeanette muttered.

"Well, take it easy, at least it's time for spring break from school." Cherry picked up the television remote after there was a weather report about a hurricane, but she clicked the TV to a different channel.

"Yeah and where Spring Break is about taking a break from school." Brittany said.

"Maybe we can go to Florida, I always went for times before." Cherry said as she continued to lie on the couch.
