Chapter Twenty One: A Romantic Time Out Part 2

Continuing on with the lovely day, the two last blue macaws on earth were flying through the jungle, and after a good time of playing, they thought it would be great to visit their human friend, Tulio.

After making it, they noticed the building hadn't changed since their last visit. Every detail of color on the walls, doors, and everything wasn't different. But once the two landed, it seemed a little dark inside, so Jewel went for the front door knob, and once they went in, they found nothing harmful, just seeing Tulio alone in the dark on his dad's "old" computer.

"Whoa. Guess everyone's taking a day off." Said Blu.

"Maybe. Come on, Blu, let's go surprise him." Jewel whispered.

"Oh yeah."

Jewel flew herself and Blu on a shelf above Tulio, and just at the right moment, Blu brought himself hanging upside down.

"HI YA." He squawked, surprising Tulio.

"Ah!" He screamed like a child and fell off his seat. "Whoa. Oh, hey." Tulio got up and was proud to see "Blu, Jewel. Hey it's great to see you guys again." Tulio smiled out as the two jumped onto his shoulder and rubbed their cheeks against his. "Haha, yeah I missed you two as well. So how have you been doing?" Blu raised his wing-thumb up to that question. "Good. Now in case you two are wondering about Linda, she's doing great. She's back home in Minnesota and we never lost touch with each other. In fact I'm writing to her right now."

Blu and Jewel bounced onto Tulio's table, and they both gave him a sly smile.

"What? Why are you two looking at me like that?" Then he got the idea. "Oh. I-It's not like that. I'm just making a friendly chat with her. So why don't we drop this and I'll write to her about you guys, okay?" Tulio blushed and went back to typing. Blu and Jewel then winked at each other, knowing that Tulio was just trippin' over the subject.

After a few moments, Jewel was feeling at ease with having the nervous thoughts out of her mind, and Tulio got a reply from Linda saying how glad she was to hear that Blu and Jewel were visiting Tulio, knowing that they were still safe and still together.

A few more moments after that, Blu, Jewel, and Tulio took their time together just sweeping the floors of the building, and then took a break by sitting in the wreck-room watching a movie. One film that Blu usually called one of his favorite "NMs."

"NMs?" Jewel questioned.

Blu replied, "I'm sorry, did you say something, Jewel?"

"No, you just said this movie's one of your favorite 'NMs.' What exactly is an NM?"

"Oh right. Well you see 'NM' is just a little term I made up. It means: a movie that you would mostly enjoy watching at night, and the kind of movie that would make you feel good about having a social life, all that fun stuff."

Jewel chuckled a bit before turning back to him. "Okay, Blu, I love you but I wanna say this as your girlfriend…that's never gonna catch on."

Blu made a sarcastic haha and did a pouting smile with his wings crossed next. Jewel then put her wing around him, and as Blu made a normal sly smile again, Jewel was about to kiss him and got prepared for that. But as her beak was reaching Blu's, she slowly stopped and opened her eyes to see that Blu's handsome face was glowing with the TV light in the dark room.

"Whoa. He's so…handso-Ah, I can't take this anymore!" In her mind she slapped herself and just jumped off of the chair she, Blu, and Tulio were at, and flew off with a fit.
