Chapter Twenty Eight: Surprising the Lovers Part 2

So that was how it was going! After Blu and Jewel had their conversation during the morning about how they've each never celebrated their own birthdays, they separated, giving each other their usual goodbye kisses, and each told their friends about it.

Blu came to Rafael, Nico, Pedro, and Luiz.

Jewel came to Eva, Sophia, Carlos, Mikka, and Leo.

They came to their friends because each of them wanted to do something special for the bird they loved. Set up...a...surprise birthday party for him/her. Everyone thought it was a great idea and spent most of their time going through the jungle and city trying to get materials that would help make the best parties.

Blu liked working out and surviving in the jungle, and learning things in the exotic city that was Rio. So the guys that Jewel spoke with got posters of Independence Day, Star Wars, and other fun movies they've all watched in Luiz's garage. And they got vines and fruits to create traps and games.

Jewel liked dancing in the city, traveling with Blu, and enjoying all the sites of both the jungle and city. So the guys that Blu spoke with got posters of great exotic places, crystals, and glowing plants to make the scenery of things more beautiful.

Blu and Jewel knew each other well and knew that these things would be perfect for their birthdays. But what they really didn't know was that they were both trying to pull off a birthday set up, and no one had that thought in mind. No one except for two toucans.

When Jewel told Eva about their conversation, she quickly thought of the possibility that Blu might be doing the same thing for Jewel. So, at the present time, she was flying through the jungle to find Rafi. She was feeling anxious that she couldn't stop speeding or even talking to herself.

"Woo! Boy, what's wrong with me? It's not such a big deal anyway. No, it's just that two of my best friends could each be throwing a party for the other and doing that could backfire on both of them. I just hope I have enough time-!" Then as a predictable moment, she bumped into the bird she wanted to see. "OW!" They both said and fell on each other to the ground.

After taking a moment to clear their heads, they realized that they were laying on each other. Eva blushed over the position they were in but Rafael just smiled and said, "Well hello, my juicy mango."

"H-Hi, Rafi. Oh gosh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bump-" She instantly got off of her boyfriend.

"Hey it's alright. Honestly I can't imagine anyone better to bump into than you."

"Hmm…thanks."

They began to talk more after Rafi whipped the dust off of his still blushing girlfriend.

"Thanks, Rafi." Eva said.

Rafael, "You got it, sweetie. So what brings the most beautiful bird in the world out here alone?"

Eva chuckled, "…Well, I was looking for you actually. Ya see, all day Jewel's been having us help her prepare for a surprise party for Blu." That did surprise Rafi. "Which made me think that he might be setting up a party for her too."

"Oh really?"

"Yes, and…already I can tell you're helping him just by the way you look, Silly." She chuckled again and made Rafael blush.

"Okay, yeah you caught me. Blu is planning a party for her and we've been helping. Now seeing that Jewel is doing the same thing..."
