Chapter Eleven: Settled

It was another beautiful morning in the city of Rio, and Blu, Jewel, and Eva were enjoying their time together through the new day.

"Whoa take it easy, girls!" Blu laughed.

"Oh come on, lover-boy." Jewel laughed along. She and Eva were trying to tickle him to death (but tried to take it easy since his wing was still broken).

"Yeah! Why can't you ever give in to laughter with us girls?" Eva joked.

"N-No! stop! Hahaha!" Blu couldn't help but laugh his beak off. As the girls stopped, Blu had trouble breathing saying, "You two...are the best." They smiled while secretly chuckling with each other about how Blu could be cute in front of them both sometimes.

Eva, "Man, he's such a goofball, Jewel."

"I know, and that's why I love him."

"Speaking of which, Jewel. What's wrong with letting the others know?"

"Oh Eva. Please don't even think about that. I always hated it when Nico and Pedro would tease us about it, and I'm afraid to even wonder what your parents will think about it. They would think I'm too young for this and probably make me not hang out with him anymore."

"What? My parents are nothing like that. Sure they may worry but they wouldn't stop you from following your heart. They're above that."

"Thanks Eva, um...is it okay with you if you give me and Blu some more alone time?"

"Sure."

Jewel then walked back to Blu, who was still laying on his back. As he sat up, Jewel brought her head closer to his. "Hey Jewel, what are you-?" Jewel placed her wingtip on Blu's beak. "Shh. Here's a little something for that kiss you gave me yesterday." She moved closer and kissed his nose. She then moved next to him again, and nuzzled herself on him. "I love you, Blu."

"Hmm. I love you too."

Eva couldn't help but smile at them. "My how we birds grow up so fast." While they continued hugging. Then she realized it was her opportunity to leave the room again and she took it.
