CHAPTER 6: Irreplaceable
"So, how was school today?" Daniel asked the Marajettes who were sitting in the back-seat in the car as Daniel was driving to their house.
The chipettes thought for a while before answering her. "Well, today was great for me!" Cherri spoke up joyfully.
"That's nice," Daniel said as her pretty smile was seen in the reflection of the rear view mirror. (A/N: I've decided that Daniel looks like Beyoncé :)
Cherri and Miranda looked over at Nicki and saw that she was laying down fast asleep. They also noticed that she would smile every now and then while she was in her deep slumber.
The black & white and yellow & white-clad chipettes giggled softly, knowing what their eldest sister was dreaming about.
After parking her car into the garage, Daniel turned around in her seat to wake Nicki up. "Nicki, we're home now," Daniel said softly as she shook Nicki gently.
Nicki's tired eyes fluttered open as she slowly sat up awake. Daniel got out the car and opened the door for the Marajettes. Nicki sluggishly scampered out of the car followed by her sisters.
As soon as they all went into the house, the Marajettes went upstairs to their room and went to their respective beds, while Daniel was lazily slouching on the couch in the living-room watching TV.
Nicki laid down and her closed eyes, hoping that her dream that she recently had continues. Miranda and Cherri looked at each other and smiled. "Nicki..." Cherri called from across the room where she was.
"What?" Nicki answered in annoyance.
"Whatcha dreamin' about?" She asked cutely.
Nicki opened her eyes. "Honestly, I was dreaming about Alvin Seville." she simply replied. "About what?" Miranda asked.
"Well me and him were sitting by a beautiful, sparkling lake and laughing at each other's jokes & talking. We were about to KISS until YOU woke me up," Nicki exclaimed as she smiled playfully.
"Aww, that's so sweet..." Miranda said. "Miranda, you're always a sucker for romance," Cherri said as she colored in her coloring book.
"Yeah. I guess I am." Said Miranda as she blushed.
At the 'munks and 'ettes's house, Alvin and Brittany were playing a game of checkers, as Theodore and Eleanor watched; and Simon and Jeanette were doing a crossword puzzle together.
It was Alvin's turn to move, but either way he would move Brittany was able to jump all of his pieces he had left.
Brittany folded her little arms across her chest, smiling rewardingly as she known already that she was going to automatically win.
Alvin groaned in frustration as he moved one of his red pieces up. Brittany quickly jumped the rest of his checkers and began doing her own little dance to congradulate herself.
"I won again," She chanted. "Great job, Brittany," Eleanor complimented.
"Don't worry, Alvin. You're getting better..." Theodore said, "...ish.."
Alvin pounded his fist on the checker-board frustratingly. "Best 9 out of 12!" he shouted challengingly.
"Okay. But we all know that you're gonna lose again," She agreed with a smirk. "Whatever! This time, you're going down!" Alvin promised.
Brittany playfully rolled her eyes. He's kinda cute when he's angry, she thought.
After an hour had past of the two chipmunks playing checkers, Eleanor spoke up and said randomly, "I feel like singing." "Well, sing..." Theodore said as he looked at her.
