It's the following day and Alvin couldn't help but think on what happened to Brittany. He has to find a way to make it up to her.
Alvin said to himself whilst pacing,
"What would Britt want? What would Britt want? Oh come on brain think!"
"Just forget it Alvin. No matter what you do, Brittany would still be really pissed!" replied Simon looking up from his book.
"Yeah! What you did was not cool Alvin, mmh, not cool!" said Theodore whilst stuffing his face with Eleanor's cookies.
"But I have to do something!" groaned Alvin.
"Wait! Brittany likes makeup and anything pink, right?! So I'll just get her that!"
Alvin rushed to his red piggy bank (which had a giant yellow A on its back) and emptied it out completely.
"Awesome! I have $96.27."
"But Alvin, didn't you say you were going to use that money to buy the new video game you've wanted for god knows how long?" asked Simon.
"Oh yeah. You're right. Well I don't care! Brittany deserves an apology and I'm going to give her one!" Alvin rushed out the bedroom door as fast as he could, grabbed his skateboard and made his way to the local store.

2 hours later, (just imagine the SpongeBob version) Alvin came back. He had 4 bags filled to the brim with a whole bunch of stuff.
"Wow! You've been busy." said Simon in complete shock.
"So Alvin what did you get her?" asked Theodore.
"Okay so I got her:
- A 10 pack of her favourite lipgloss.
- A bunch of pink cookies, chocolate and candy.
- A new hairdryer, cuz I kinda broke her other one.
- This cute pink bear.
- This pink, fluffy pom pom keychain for her purse.
- This pink fanny pack. Haha! Fanny!"
Simon looked at him raising an eyebrow.
*Clears throat* "Anyways I also got her:
- This pink scrunchie she can wear to tie her hair up.
- A bottle of pink lemonade lucozade, since it's her favourite drink.
- A set of pink gel pens, which she can use as she is the principal's assistant.
- A card, but I have to write the apology first.
- This pink basket to hold everything.
- And finally this pink bow to make it look nice!"
Simon and Theodore's mouths were dropped to the floor.
"Oh my god Alvin she's gonna love it! You really outdid yourself!" said Simon, who is still in complete shock.
"Well done Alvin!" said Theodore with 2 big thumbs up.
"Okay I just have to write the apology and put everything in the basket."

Simon and Theodore helped make the basket look really nice and tidy, whilst Alvin finished writing his apology. He licked the envelope to seal it and placed it in the basket.
"Okay I'm ready to go!" he beamed.
He walked on over to the chipettes' treehouse and knocked on the door. He heard the doorknob turn and Eleanor was standing there with the most furious look on her face.
"What the hell do YOU want Alvin?" she asked aggressively.
"I'm here to see Britt. You see I wanted to give h-"
"She doesn't want anything to do with you Alvin!" she snapped back.
"Hey Ellie what's goi-. Oh hi Alvin." said Jeanette in a rude tone.
"Guys look. I know what I did was wrong, so I wanted to make it up to Britt. I made her this basket and I put so much time and money into this. Can I at least just give it to her? Please!"
Jeanette and Eleanor both raised their eyebrows and reluctantly let Alvin in.

Brittany was on her bed painting her nails until she heard a voice she didn't want to hear as far as her hearing could go.
"Hey Britt." said Alvin with a shaken voice.
"What are you doing here Alvin! I want absolutely nothing to do with you!" she said turning away from him.
"Britt I'm so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, so, sorry for what I did to you. It was wrong, immature and you didn't deserve any of it."
"Well sorry ain't gonna cut it Alvin!"
"Please Brittany. I made you this basket so you know I'm truly sorry. I spent all my time and money on this."
"I don't care what you've done Alvin. That shit concoction you poured on my head and body gave my skin a terrible reaction, since in case you didn't know I'm allergic to peanuts and right now YOU!"
"Wait I didn't know you were allergic to peanuts. If I'd have known..."
"Even if you did know, I can't forgive you for that prank. Take that stupid basket and shove it right up your a-"
"Okay you know what Britt, fine!" yelled Alvin slamming the basket on the ground.
I've worked really hard to make this basket for you! We've known each other for years now and you know that me and apologies don't mix. Brittany Miller you are a complete diva and you think you can be the boss of everyone and anyone! You're being such a bitch!"
Alvin stormed off pushing through Eleanor and Jeanette.

"Hey Al how did it g-"
Alvin barged past Simon and Theodore, ran up to his room and slammed the door. They both stood there looking confused.
"I don't think it went well." said Theodore.
Simon and Theodore decided to go and see Brittany and ask her what happened. They made their way to the treehouse and knocked on the door. Jeanette answered and they asked her if they could see Brittany. They walked up to the chipettes' bedroom and saw Brittany blowing on her nails, so they could dry quicker.
"Hey Brittany, how are you?" asked Theodore politely.
"I'm great guys." she answered sarcastically and rolled her eyes.
"Come on Britt, just tell us what happened!"

Brittany, Simon and Theodore get to talking for the next 2 1/2 hours.
"I'm sorry about what Alvin did, but could you maybe at least accept his basket. He really did work hard on it." said Simon.
"It's true. Instead of saving his money to buy a video game he's wanted for a long time, he bought you all that stuff." agreed Theodore.
Brittany looked over to the basket and agreed to accept his apology.
"See you Britt!"
"Yeah, see ya Britt!"
Brittany waved goodbye to Simon and Theodore and went to look at the gift basket Alvin made for her.
"Omg! Gel pens, candy, a teddy bear, a scrunchie, lucozade, a pink fanny pack, a pom pom keychain and a new hairdryer! I wonder what happened to my old one? Wait! A 10 pack of my favourite lipgloss! Eeekkkk! Alvin did all of this... for me?! Oh and this bow is sooooooo cute! Hold on there's a letter!"
Brittany took the letter out of the basket, and opened the envelope with care. The card was a cute golden retriever puppy wearing a pink collar, Brittany's favourite animal. She opened the card and it said:

Dear Miller,
I'm really sorry for what I did to you. I just wanted to get you back after you didn't let me do anything to do with the science project. I know I'm an idiot and can maybe at times be a tiny bit stubborn, but not even you deserved that. Yes we do fight... a lot, but that doesn't mean I can't see the fact that you're a real chipmunk with real feelings. I just hope that this basket can make up for what I did, but even if it doesn't, I just want you to know how sorry I am and that maybe you could forgive me. I guess I'll see ya around.
From the more attractive one,
Alvin.
(P.S thanks for the B+)

Brittany was blushing uncontrollably.

Brittany's POV:

I can't believe Alvin Seville did all of this FOR ME?!!!! That was the sweetest thing anyone could have ever done. He bought everything I like from makeup, to food, to some random, but kind, gifts. Of course I accept his apology, well actually I did before he left. I was just too stubborn to admit it. Oh look! I guess we're both pretty stubborn huh? Well I gotta go see him and let him know we're good!

3rd person POV:

Brittany walked over to the Seville house and knocked on the door. Theodore answered.
"Hey Theo!"
"Hello Brittany!"
"Could you get me Alvin for a second? I need to talk to him."
"Okay! Alvin you have a visitor!" yelled Theodore.
Alvin put down his controller and walked to the door. And to his surprise he saw Brittany.
"Well I'll leave you guys alone." said Theodore and he wondered off to the kitchen.
"What do you want now Miller? To yell at me?" snapped Alvin.
"No actually I'm here to tell you we're good and that I accept your apology."
"Wait really?!"
"Yeah! What you did for me was really sweet and just amazing!" gushed Brittany.
"And also causing this to happen was also kinda my fault since I didn't let you do anything to do with the project. Oh, and speaking about the project. I'm really sorry I said you weren't capable of doing things. You're really smart when you make an effort and I promise next time we are partnered together, we will do 50/50! And here."
"$150! Why the heck are you giving me this?!"
"Theodore told me earlier that you spent all your money on me instead of buying the video game you wanted. I felt bad and since I'm not sure which game you wanted, I just thought to give you the money."
"What the heck! Thank you so much Britt! Oh and also, apology accepted." smiled Alvin.
Brittany smiled back and both of them blushed really hard.
"Friends?"
"Friends!"
They hugged it out but something strange happened. They were hugging for what seemed like forever. Almost like they were melting. When they finally let go, their eyes locked with each others. Alvin staring into Brittany's crystal blue eyes and Brittany staring into Alvin's chocolate brown eyes. His hands around her waist and her arms resting on his shoulders. It's almost like they were about to-
"Am I interrupting something?!" smirked Simon.
Alvin and Brittany immediately let go of each other.
"Britt was just leaving weren't you Britt?" said Alvin stammering.
"Yes that's right I was! See you guys soon!" replied Brittany in a shaky voice.
Alvin glared at Simon.
"Just shut up Si. Not a word!"
