Hello everyone.

So I've been rewatching Alvin and the Chipmunks movies recently and obsessed with Albrittina/Alvittany. They're so cute and have this always-arguing-but-secretly-in-love-with-each-others vibe of relationship that makes me so uwu whenever I look at them (is uwu even a word XD).

The other day, I was thinking Alvin's troublemaker behavior when he's getting older. I mean he wouldn't always be like that, would he? Then I've got a similar vibe from Jake Peralta (Brooklyn Nine-Nine). What if Alvin act like Jake when he's older, who still manage find a way to have fun in life? I know Jake is not a troublemaker like Alvin, but the way they always wanted to have fun is similar with each other. And so, from one of B99 infamous quote, "I kinda wish something could happen between us— romantic style," this fanfic is born. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this!

PS: English is not my mother language, so I'm very sorry if there's any typo or incorrect grammar.

Chapter 1: Family Camping Trip

It's a great day today. Dave is taking the Chipmunks, as well the Chipettes, for a camping trip. Everyone seems happy and looking forward to it, except for one chipmunk.

"So tell me again why are we doing this, Dave?" Alvin asked, leaning his body towards the car seat while crossing his hands. He doesn't look excited as usual.

"Well, you guys have been performing a lot lately and I figure instead of staying home playing video games or going shopping to the mall, we all should get some fresh air once in a while." Dave responded while driving his car. He seems really focused, his eyes on the road, but still manage to answer one of his son's question.

"Yeah Alvin, think of it as a vacation." Simon, Alvin's brother who sits next to him, added.

"But it's in the forest." Alvin grumbled. Rolling his eyes.

"It's not a forest, it's a mountain." Theodore, who sits in the front seat alongside Dave, joining the conversation.

"It's the same!" Alvin yelled.

"Well whatever it is, I'm sure you'll end up loving it. And, what's up with you anyway? It's not like you to complain like this." Dave asked. He was curious because Alvin is not usually like this. Whenever Dave said he will take the Chipmunks out to some place, Alvin will always be the first one who gets excited. And now, it's the opposite.

"Nothing."

It's not like Alvin was lost interest in going for a family trip. It's just that there's a new game that has been released, and Alvin was looking forward to play it all weekend until Dave suddenly told them they were going for a camping trip. He was going to fake sick so he didn't have to come, but he tried it once and Dave didn't believe him so it won't worked. Also, he already predicted if he said he's sick Dave will only said, "Nature is good for health, you'll get better in one second."

"Cheer up Alvin, I'm sure we're gonna have a great time together." Jeanette smiled. Sometimes, she still manage to think positive despite her shy and clumsy traits.

"I hope so."

After driving for hours, they're finally arrive at the bottom of the mountain. Dave parks his car in the parking lot, then everyone step out and take their bags with them. They walk towards the top of the mountain. Thankfully before the night fall, they found a perfect spot for camping, near a small river. Dave quickly pack out his bag and set up the tent, while the boys went to collect some firewood. The girls on the other hand, helping Dave setting the tent, before preparing for dinner.

"So what's for dinner?" Simon asked, walking towards Dave and the girls while holding some firewood he just collected. He put it down and start making fire together with Dave.

"We've pack some meatballs and sausage for the main course, also a traditional camping snack, marshmallow." Brittany replied, looking at the food cans that were just packed out.

"Just that?" Theodore gasped, disappointed with the food choices that the girls brought.

"Well we've figure since we're out camping, it'll be fun to catch some fish for dinner." Eleanor happily suggest. The others nods and walks to the river. Some of them successfully catch a couple of fish, while the others are playing with water. Both Chipmunks and Chipettes looks so happy, even Alvin who complaining before is enjoying his time. Dave smile at his children, looking like a proud dad.

After they're done catching some fish, wetting their clothes, and feeling exhausted, Dave tell them to change their clothes before gather around the camp fire to cook for dinner.

After eating dinner, they sings and telling scary stories. Of course Alvin was the one who get excited first in telling the stories. But Dave remind him to keep the story light (not too scary) because it would freak Theodore. The sky turns darker as the time goes by. It's time for bed. Everyone goes into the tent and sleep.

The night before dawn, Brittany wakes up and go out the tent. She noticed Alvin was sitting around the camp fire, staring directly into the fire like he was thinking of something. What is he doing alone at time like this?

"Can't sleep?"

Alvin notice the owner of that voice. He turn around to face her before reply, "Yeah. How about you?"

"Just woke up. And I notice someone is missing from the tent." Brittany walk closer and sit beside Alvin. But he still didn't say anything, and just staring to the firewood. He looks like he's thinking of something. Brittany notice this, but she didn't know what to say. A few moments of silent passed by. Until she thought of something and turn quickly to Alvin. "Alvin, come with me for a sec."

Alvin raise one of his eyebrow but decided to follow her. He didn't know where she's taking him but since it's Brittany, he wouldn't mind. Brittany walks toward the bushes. Alvin who still a few step behind her, trying to keep up his step to her. Suddenly she stop her footstep, turn around and said, "See… Isn't this amazing?"

What Alvin sees is a breath-taking view. Sunrise on the top of the mountain. The light touch the ground and illuminate the earth. He can see everything from here, but mostly trees, hills, and river. He can even hear the birds chirping. He couldn't describe what he sees with words. Brittany look at him and smiled. "I know right."

Brittany turn her gaze to the view and said, "Sometimes when my sister and I goes hiking, I'd like to come here to watch the sun. I usually watched sunset so it's also my first time watching sunrise in here." She giggled.

"Wait wait wait… I didn't know were into hiking or nature related stuff. Last time I remember, when we were stranded on an island, you were the one who freak out the most." Alvin confused.

"Well, it's different because when we were stranded… cough... because of someone's mistake… cough…" Brittany pretending to cough to tease him. Alvin roll his eyes and responded quickly, "Ha-ha very funny."

Brittany continue, "…I thought no one's gonna rescue us and we'll end up spending all eternity in there. I cannot let that happen. I still have a dream to become a famous star."

"But you're already a star." Alvin laughed.

"I know but I want to be international pop star, touring around the world, getting grammy, have my name on walk of fame, becoming a model, and be an iconic fashion celebrity." She stated. Her eyes sparkle whenever she talks about her future. Alvin smiled. He never knew this side of his best friend.

"What about you, what's your future?" She asked.

Alvin surprised. He haven't even think about that at all. Heck he doesn't even know what he would be after graduating from high school. All he knew that he likes to sing, so maybe he would continue his singing career along with his brother? But what if they don't want to sing anymore? Especially Simon. He dreamt of becoming a scientist.

"I haven't think about it."

Alvin quickly turn away to look at the view, while Brittany still looking at him. "That's ok, you don't have to know right know. You still have time to think about it before graduation."

"But what if I never know who I want to be? I mean all I know is making a mess and sings."

There are moment of silence between them for a few seconds, before Brittany broke it.

"I think you're great just the way you are," Brittany smiled. "Just saying."

"Even though sometimes you can be a little bit irresponsible, and trouble always follows you wherever you go. Don't forget that you always drive Dave and everyone insane, but at the end of the day, you still manage to fix it. So be so hard on yourself."

Alvin didn't say anything. He really didn't know what to say. That's literally the first time anyone said that to him. His shocked face then turn into a warm smile. "Thanks Brittany."

Brittany smiled back. Both of them enjoying the view once more before deciding to go back to the tent.

That trip was something. At first, the only thing Alvin care about is playing his new video games all weekend but turns out coming to the family camping trip is much more fun and meaningful. He get spend some quality time with his family, and even learning something new from them. Especially the breath taking view that Brittany show him. Alvin will never forget that, and more importantly the person who shows the view.
