Hey here's the 8th and final chapter. Sorry for the kind of rush ending, but I have school this morning. Hope you like it.

If I Was The One

Chapter 8

Eleanor sat on the couch flipping channels. She felt so bad about what she did to Theodore, but he was so understanding and forgiving about it. Which made her feel worse. "Hi." A small voice greeted cheerfully.

Eleanor looked up and noticed Jeanette standing next to the couch. "Hi." She greeted back glumly.

"So you told Theodore about you and Alvin huh?" Jeanette asked sitting next to her on the arm of the couch.

Eleanor sat up and starred at her at a complete loss. "You knew?" Eleanor asked still quite mystified. Jeanette nodded knowing. Eleanor couldn't believe this. "How?" She asked.

"When you didn't come home the other night, I knew you couldn't have been with Theodore because he would never have you out all night." Jeanette explained. "So when you finally came home, I heard you and Brittany arguing, and you two wouldn't just argue about you being late for curfew, it had to be something more than that." Jeanette continued. "The rest was just assumption and common sense." She finished with a nod. Eleanor laughed. Jeanette studied Eleanor's face as she continued to indecisively flip channels. "You really like him don't you?" Jeanette asked.

"Who? Alvin?" Eleanor asked with her eyes still glued to the TV screen.

"No, Morgan Freeman." Jeanette said sarcastically.

Eleanor stared at Jeanette in shock. "Have you been hanging around Simon again?" Eleanor asked.

"Don't change the subject." Jeanette said crossing her arms. Eleanor sighed as a small smile appeared on her face. She slowly nodded and her shy smile turned into a grin. Jeanette laughed at her but still didn't completely understand. Alvin was self-centered and a troublemaker. Eleanor was so sweet and caring. It didn't make any sense. "That's great Ellie. I'm so happy for you." She said hugging Eleanor and still laughing slightly.

"Don't be. I did a terrible thing to Theodore." Eleanor said lowering her head.

Jeanette nodded. "Do you want to talk about it?" Jeanette asked.

"No." Eleanor said glumly. Jeanette nodded again. "The worst part is he was so understanding about it!" Eleanor blurted out. Jeanette looked confusedly at Eleanor.

"Is that a bad thing?" Jeanette asked.

"Didn't I tell you I don't want to talk about it?" Eleanor snapped. Jeanette nodded again. "Why did he have to be so sweet about it? He's making me feel more guilty than I already was." Eleanor said.

"Are you sure you don't want to talk about it?" Jeanette asked smiling slightly.

"No, now stop bringing it up." Eleanor said finally settling on an episode of Golden Girls.

Jeanette shook her head and laughed. She's acting more and more like Brittany everyday.

Alvin slowly made his way down the hall to Theodore's room. He took a deep breath for courage and softly knocked on the door. He heard some footsteps before Theodore finally opened the door. "Theodore I have to talk to you about Eleanor." Alvin said stepping into his room.

Theodore continued to stand at the door. "Hi, Alvin. C'mon in." He said sarcastically. Alvin laughed and Theodore took a seat beside him. "What about Eleanor?" He asked.

Alvin looked down. "I can't date her. I mean, I would do anything to make her happy, but I want you to be happy too." Alvin said still looking down.

Theodore smiled at his brother's consideration towards his feelings. "Alvin, I'm happy if Eleanor's happy, and she's happy with you." Theodore said smiling.

Alvin smiled back at Theodore. "Thanks Theodore." Alvin said gratefully. He reached out to hug Theodore. Theodore jumped back in surprise. Alvin angrily lowered his arms. "Come on people! They're just hugs!" Alvin exclaimed. Theodore smiled apologetically and hugged Alvin. Alvin hugged back but pulled away when he noticed a silver rod sitting on Theodore's bed. A nine iron! Alvin smiled at Theodore. "Well, I must be going." He said laughing nervously before fleeing the room.

Theodore looked confused but shrugged it off as one of Alvin's "moments." Theodore sat staring at the phone for a moment before picking it up and dialing a number.

Eleanor sat on her couch and was once again flipping channels. Suddenly the phone rang. "Ahh!" She screamed as she fell to the ground.

Brittany walked in and saw Eleanor on the floor. She stared for a moment as Eleanor slowly got up. "Ellie, the phones for you. Its Theodore." Brittany said handing the phone to her.

Eleanor took it. "Hello?" She asked unsure of why Theodore was calling her.

"Hi, Eleanor. I just wanted to talk to you. Knowing you, you were probably sitting on the couch flipping channels because you felt guilty." Theodore said knowingly. Eleanor shifted her eyes and remained silent. Theodore laughed into the phone. "Now you're shifting your eyes because I'm right." Theodore said still laughing.

"How do you do that?" Eleanor asked laughing along with him.

"I just know you." Theodore said still laughing. The laughter slowly came to an end. "I called to tell you not to feel guilty. I'm not mad, and I didn't beat the crap out of Alvin." Theodore said making Eleanor laugh. "I just wanted you to know that even if we're not together I still love you, and I hope we can still be good friends." Theodore said softly.

Eleanor smiled at the other end of the phone even though Theodore couldn't see her, but he knew she was. "I'd like that, Theodore. Thank you." She said still smiling.

Theodore also smiled. "My pleasure." Theodore said. There was a comfortable silence between the two. "Would you like to talk to Alvin?" Theodore asked practically reading her mind.

"Are you outside my window or something?" Eleanor asked looking out her window.

Theodore laughed and walked out into the hall and made his way to Alvin's room. He lightly knocked on his door. Alvin opened it. "It's your girlfriend." Theodore teased.

Alvin laughed. "you're already teasing me? What was that five seconds?" Theodore laughed and handed Alvin the phone. "Hey, Ellie." He said closing his door.

"Hey," She said cheerfully. "I heard Theodore didn't beat your head like a drum." She laughed.

"Yeah, and to think I wore a protective cup today for nothing." Alvin mused. Eleanor laughed. "So, what were you and Theodore talking about?" Alvin asked.

"He just wanted to clear the air. Everything is good between us now." Eleanor said relieved.

"Us too." Alvin said also relieved.

"I'm glad everything is fine and resolved now." Eleanor said.

"Not everything." Alvin said.

Eleanor had a confused look on her face. "What else is there?" She asked puzzled.

"Just enough to make a sequel." Alvin stated.
