A Merry Christmas in Rio
Chapter 3: old friends drop by
Okay, here is chapter 3 of the story. Is everyone enjoying it so far? I sure hope so because I have been working REALLY hard on this story and am determined not to make any mistakes (I know that no one is perfect, but you have try at least).
Anyway, enjoy the story.
The following Christmas Day, the blue macaw family were all doing separate things with each other to pass the time for a little while.
Blu and his daughter Bia were reading Bia's new book together.
Jewel and Tiago were flying around the book to test out Tiago's new goggles to see if he could fly without anything hurting his eyes.
And Carla was on her own, listening to her music from her new IPod and looking at it's many contents. But she still loved her Uncle Nico and Pedro's singing more of course.
Blu and Jewel turned their attention from their kids towards the window when they heard knocking coming from the other side. The lovebirds smiled when they saw it was the duo Nico the singing canary and Pedro the rapping cardinal flying outside, knocking on the window with their talons.
Jewel flew over to the window to greet them and used both of her talons to open up the window a little for them to squeeze through and fly their way inside. She closed the window again when they were inside and flew back over to her family to greet them.
"Hey, everyone, Merry Christmas!" Nico greeted in a happy tone, adjusting his new bottle cop he was wearing.
Rather than wearing his standard green bottle cap like usual , he was wearing a red bottle cap with the initials 'MC' written on the top. It must stand for 'Merry Christmas'.
The second the duo landed down onto the couch, the three blue macaw kids enthusiastically flew towards their Uncle's to greet them and for a Christmas hug. "Uncle Nico! Uncle Pedro!"
Carla grabbed onto her Uncle Nico and hugged him tightly in her big wings, almost squishing the life out of him. She cooed while resting her head on Nico's head. "I missed you, Uncle Nico! Merry Christmas."
Nico chuckled in response as he wiggled his way out from fluffy macaw's grip to catch a bit of oxygen. Even though he is older than her in years, Carla was still way bigger than him. "You are getting big, kiddo."
While the canary struggled to get out from Carla's grip, Bia and Tiago were hugging their Uncle Pedro's rounded belly, both of them wishing him a Merry Christmas together as brother and sister. "Merry Christmas, Uncle Pedro!"
"Merry Christmas, kiddies." Pedro greeted smiling, playfully ruffling Tiago's hair feathers with his right wing. The young chick's new goggles caught Pedro's attention and he decided to complement Tiago about them. "Hey, Tiago, nice specs."
"Mom and Dad got them for me!" Tiago replied, still hugging his Uncle Pedro like he never wanted to let him go again.
"I'm sure they did." the cardinal smiled, placing both of his tiny wings onto his niece and nephew, and patting them both on their heads softly.
Blu decided to join in with Nico and Pedro and kindly inquire to the them why they were here at the bookstore? Although he did not really have to since it is Christmas after all, and Christmas is about spending time with those you love. Nico and Pedro were both like brothers to Blu and Jewel after they were one of the reasons they had fallen in love.
"So, what brings you and Pedro over here, Nico?" Blu inquired, watching the small canary finally getting released out of Carla's bear hug.
Nico dropped down onto the couch and picked up his bottle cap that must have slipped from his head when his niece was hugging him. He brushed off his bottle cap and angled it on his head properly before it was time for him to answer the blue macaw's question. "Well, me and Pedro just finished our Christmas party at the club so we thought we would drop in on you guys. If that's okay of course?"
"Of course it's okay." Blu smiled, happily welcoming Nico and Pedro to stay for the day so they could celebrate together as family and friends. "Why don't you guys stay? It is Christmas after all."
"Sounds cool to me." Pedro answered, trying to get Bia and Tiago from hugging him further but they would not let go and held onto his rounded belly.
"Me, too." Nico agreed along with his best friend while he stood back up onto his tiny talons and jumped back over to Carla, despite the fact she just hugged him for a couple of minutes.
Now that Nico and Pedro were here too, Jewel decided to ask them if their toucan friends were coming too. She sweetly asked both of them if Rafael, Eva, or any of their eighteen chicks were coming too. "Nico, Pedro, are Rafael and Eva coming here too?"
"We asked, but they are spending Christmas with a couple of their friends in the jungle." Nico answered while he and Carla were looking at Carla's new IPod together. "But the said they might drop by later on."
"That's nice." Jewel smiled, sitting herself down on the couch while laying her back against the cozy cushion. She leaned her head back too and relaxed, enjoying how peaceful and happy her family was during this special day.
The blue macaws, the canary, and the cardinal enjoyed their day together, talking and having a good time with one and other.
A little while later, the birds had been enjoying their day together as family and friends in the bookstore, enjoying their Christmas and talking with one and other. Soon, however, the blue macaw children had a request for their Uncle's.
Tiago flew towards his Uncle Nico rapidly, followed by his siblings, and landed down next to Nico, who was chatting with Pedro near the Christmas tree.
The young male chick placed his wings upon the canary and jumped up and down with joy, requesting something from his Uncle. "Uncle Nico, Uncle Pedro! Will you sing a song for us?!"
Carla decided to join in too on the request. She hopped up and down near the canary to get his attention by hopping. "Plea-s-s-s-s-s-e!"
Nico chuckled in response, finding the little chicks spirit to be amusing. But nether the less, he did decide to follow their requests. "Alright, alright, kiddies! We will sing you a song."
The kids cheered as they flew towards their parents, who were cozy against the couch, and sat with them to listen and enjoy the song their Uncle's were about to sing for them.
When they were comfortable, Nico and his best friend Pedro flew up towards the top of the Christmas tree and cleared their vocals.
Before long, their was silence out from the blue macaws, and the two best friends began to sing their Christmas song on this special day of celebration.
Nico-Snow is falling,
All around me,
Children playing,
Having fun.
Pedro-It's the season,
Love and understanding,
Nico and Pedro-Merry Christmas everyone.
As the song continued, the blue macaw children nodded their heads side to side along with the music their Uncle's were singing.
Nico-Time for parties and celebration,
People dancing all night long,
Time for presents,
Pedro-And exchanging kisses,
Time for singing Christmas songs.
Nico-We're gonna have a party tonight,
I'm gonna find that girl underneath the mistletoe,
Blu and Jewel looked towards each other while the canary and cardinal continued their song together, and decided to join in on the action.
The lovebirds stood back up onto their talons and moved their wings around each other and began dancing around in circles together as a couple.
Pedro-We'll kiss by candlelight.
Room is swaying, records playing,
All the old songs, we love to hear,
Nico-All I wish that everyday was christmas,
What a nice way to spend the year.
Nico and Pedro slid past each other on a table while still singing of course. Pedro began doing a sort of funky dance by moving his wings up and down like ocean waves.
As for Nico, he moved his bottle-cap from his head into his wings and began patting against it like it was a tambourine while kicking his little talons around.
Pedro-We're gonna have a party tonight,
I'm gonna find that girl underneath the mistletoe,
We'll kiss by candlelight.
Nico-Snow is fallin,
All around me,
Children playing,
Having fun,
Pedro-It's the season,
Love and understanding,
Nico and Pedro-Merry Christmas everyone,
Merry Christmas everyone.
Ooh merry Christmas everyone.
Blu and Jewel were still dancing with one and other, constantly grabbing and letting go of each other's wings as they danced around the couch together.
Blu was going most of the work by taking his mate's wing and spinning her around in circles, dancing just like old times at the samba club.
Nico-Snow is falling,
All around me,
Children playing,
Having fun,
Pedro-It's the season,
Love and understanding,
Nico and Pedro-Merry Christmas everyone.
Nico-Snow is falling,
All around me,
Children playing,
Having fun,
Pedro-It's the season,
Love and understanding,
Nico and Pedro-Merry Christmas everyone.
Nico-Snow is falling,
All around me,
Children playing,
Having fun,
Pedro-It's the season,
Love and understanding,
The canary and cardinal jumped from the table together and landed towards the blue macaws for their grand finale to finish off their song.
Nico and Pedro-Merry Christmas everyone,
Merry Christmas everyone,
Merry Christmas everyone.
The two best friends finished their song together and took a bow to the blue macaw family like they were on stage at their club to show off for their fans.
The blue macaw chicks clapped their wings together like hands, impressed by their Uncle's singing vocals and their dancing talents.
"Great job, guys." Jewel congratulated, smiling of course after she and Blu had ended their dance with one and other.
"Yeah, but technically, it does not snow in Rio." Blu mentioned, noticing they mentioned the word "snow" a lot in their song.
Everyone merely laughed at the blue macaw, thinking everything he said either did not make sense or whatever came out his beak was hilarious.
While the others were still laughing, Jewel moved back towards her mate and pecked the side of his beak, thinking everything he mentioned was funny, and that it made her happy.
She talked in a voice the others could not hear to Blu while smiling across her beak. "Blu, do not ever change."
And I bring chapter 3. You all enjoy it? I hope so because I did try my best to make this good. Anyway, it's only around twenty minutes until Christmas where I am from so I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year too.
