Chapter 4
The Confession
Jose' backed away from Panchito as he took off his hat and held it close to his chest."What do you mean you kissed him?" Jose' said as he pointed to Donald. Donald was still frozen as Panchito pushed him over and Donald fell down to the ground, still in his position as Panchito looked at Jose'. "Hold on. I'll be right back." Panchito went into the kitchen and came out a few seconds later with a cup of ice water and dumped it all over Donald. "BAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Donald gasped as he sat up , water dripping from his face. "There now your awake." Panchito said with a smile on his face. "Now Jose' what were you asking me?" Jose' stood there with fright and confusion in his eyes."You just told me that you kissed Donald on the lips! On the lips!" Jose' yelled. Panchito looked at Donald as Donald was blushing whenever Jose' mentioned it. Panchito went over to Jose' as Jose' backed up a bit." Jose'…" Panchito started but got interrupted. "I don't know if I can handle all of this. You and Donald doing what you told me you did and..." Jose' took out a brown paper bag and started to hyperventilate. Panchito didn't know what to say. On one hand he had Donald's feelings and on the other was the feelings of a hyperventilating Brazilian parrot. Watching the scene that happened in front of him Panchito quickly rushed over to Jose' and held his hands up calmly."Jose'! Jose'! I didn't kiss Donald I..um kissed his… hat. Yeah that's it I kissed his hat." Jose's breathing decreased as he removed the bag from his mouth and held his heart. "But you said…" Panchito came near Jose' as they sat on the couch. He explained that kissing a hat in Mexico was good luck and that's what he did with Donald. Jose' sighed in relief as he took off his hat and smoothed back his hair. "Oh thank goodness. I feel kinda stupid now. What was I thinking? " Panchito looked at his friend with a smile on his face, but on the inside feeling guilty that he lied to his friend and refused to confess his love for Donald and Jose'. Panchito helped Donald to his feet as he thought of an idea. " Hey guys! We should go get some ice cream. You know just to hang out and cool down." The three of them got into Donald's car as they drove off to the ice cream parlor. As they were in the car Donald kept on staring at the mirror to see Panchito staring at him mouthing something. "At the ice cream place" Panchito mouthed. "Panchito you don't have to whisper" Donald said out loud. Panchito had a look of confusion on his face. "Why not?" " Because I think were safe with Jose' in the car." When they stopped at a red light Panchito turned to see Jose' sleeping with his headphones covering his ears. "Wow ya know Jose' looks so bonito when he's asleep." Panchito said wanting to rub Jose's hair but pulled back his hand. Finally when they arrived at the ice cream parlor they went up to the counter to order. The lady at the counter was skinny like a twig and had a big brown braid hanging off her left shoulder. "What can I get you three?" she asked in a subtle tone. "Well…Emily I would like a chocolate chip sundae por favor." Panchito said as he moved aside. Donald had ordered vanilla and Jose' had ordered coffee chocolate chip. The three caballeros got there ice cream as they sat down at the table and ate there ice cream. As they were eating Donald felt something cold and wet at his neck. He wiped the back of his neck to see a chocolate chip sundae appear on his hand. He glared at Panchito who was whistling innocently with his hands behind his back. "Panchito!" Donald screamed as he piled his ice cream on his spoon and started flinging it at Panchito as he chased after him. The rooster was swift and quick dodging each ice cream bullet as he hit Donald successfully. Jose' held up his umbrella as a shield as he tried to avoid the ice cream war. Jose' put down his umbrella as he thought he was in the clear when SPLAT! Panchito's ice cream landed over the parrots yellow jacket as it produced a brown stain. Jose' looked down at his jacket in disbelief. " You guys have to be more careful. You can't just throw your food around like children."Jose' grumbled as he got up from the table. "Excuse me." He said as he went to wash up in the bathroom. "Yes mommy." Panchito whispered to Donald as they snickered a little bit." What was that?" Jose' asked. Panchito and Donald stopped there snickers as he turned to Jose'."Oh nothing." Jose' stared at him then left for the restroom. When he was gone Panchito blurted out."Mommy!" Donald and Panchito laughed as they wiped tears away from there face. Panchito stared at Donald as there was some of his ice cream at the corner of his mouth. " Hey Donald you have something." Panchito said as he pointed to the corner of his mouth. Donald raised a napkin to his lips as Panchito took it away."Hold on Donald. I got it. I got it." Panchito said as he scooted closer to Donald and licked the ice cream off with his mouth. Donald went stiff, thoughts running through his mind as Panchito wiped off the mark. "There now that's better." Panchito said pulling back. "No…" Donald stood up as he grabbed Panchito by the shoulders." This is." Donald put his hands around Panchito's neck as he pulled the rooster into a passionate kiss. There tongues swirled together tasting ice cream, passion and heat. Panchito closed his eyes as he wrapped his hands around Donald's waist. Jose' came back from the bathroom as he lit his cigar. " Now that that's settled let's…" Jose' s jaw dropped as he saw the event that was happening in front of him. Panchito slowly opened his eyes to see Jose'. He gasped as he removed his arms and tapped Donald's shoulder. Donald turned around as he too saw Jose' and his face went a deep red color. " Jose' it's not what it looks like…" Panchito tried to explain. Jose' just stood there shocked. " You lied to me…" Jose' with a soft voice. "YOU LIED TO ME!" The parrot yelled as he started to curse in Portuguese and punch the walls letting out his anger. "Que porra é essa! After all these years, You lied to me!" Jose' said flinging the napkins and spoons off the table. Panchito and Donald were shocked never seeing their friend this way before. " You... lied ...to..me..." Jose' said softly as his fist pounded on the walls softly. Jose' truged back to the car as he Panchito and Donald followed behind him. They got in the car and drove home without saying a word. When they arrived back at the Duck residense Jose' sat their looking out the window. Panchito looked at Donald with dissapointment as he whispered. "What are we gonna do?" Donald sat their and sighed. "We'll think of something." They both looked back as they stared at Jose'. " Hey Jose'. Um... what you saw back at the ice cream parlor..." Jose' interuppted not meeting his eyes with there's. " What is that another thing you do in Mexico for good luck?" Panchito looked at Donald as his eyes begged him for help. " Look Jose' we... Well we just..." Donald could'nt explain it. " Look it's complicated ok?' Jose' looked at them with a look of sadness on his face. " No it's not just complicated" Jose's voice started to shake." You guys lied to me and if you guys would've told me in the first place I would've understood, but no you had to hide this from me and did'nt have the courage to tell me until i caught you two in the act.." Tears formed in his eyes as he opened the car door and ran inside the house. " Jose' wait!" Donald shouted as he and Panchito ran in after him. As they entered the house they heard loud sobbing coming from the bathroom with the shower running. Panchito and Donald came beside the door as they pressed there ears against it. Each sob and sniffle made there hearts crack. Panchito knocked slightly on the door. " Jose' plese come out and talk to us about it." Leave me alone!" Jose' cried as he put his head on his knees. " Come on Jose' we did'nt mean to hurt you like this." Donald added. " If you did'nt mean to hurt me then why did you?" The parrot sobbed. They both looked at eachother with guilty written on both of there faces. Panchito started to open the door but Donald stopped him."Hey we can't invade his privacy. Obviously he wants us to leave him alone." Panchito looked at Donald as he placed a kiss on his lips. " I know that but it would feel right if we told him face to face." Panchito lifted Donald's chin up with his finger. " Oh allright." Donald said as Panchito slowly opened the door. They entered the bathroom as they saw Jose's shadow from the otherside. Jose' placed his hands over his eyes as he sobbed even louder than before. " Jose' were really should've told you about this in the first place because i was too scared to confess my love for you two." Jose' poked his head out of the shower and he looked confused. "Que? What do you mean for you TWO?" Jose' asked as he wrapped a towel around his waist and stepped sat down inbetween Jose' and Donald as he tried to tell him. "Jose' I... I..I love ...you." Jose' gasped a bit as he stared into Panchito's eyes. "I've tried to tell you before but i was just nervous." Panchito took Jose's hands as his face got inches closer to his. "Panchito i think i love you...too." Jose' said as he pulled him into a deep kiss. There tounges swirled together as they pressed there body against eachother. Jose' pulled out of the kiss breathing heavily."Panchito ..." Jose' said breathing heavily." I think i want to make this work."
