Dancarino said, "This is really amazing! Really sets an example for inner beauty!"

Valentina said, "Well, what are we waiting for? Let's dance!"

Valentina and Dancarino flew off to another part of the bar.

Vivo said, "Wow. This is really something."

Charlotte said, "I know, right?"

Tiago said, "Ha ha! Dang right! Like the old saying goes; When the man's away, the pets will play!"

Vivo said, "Well, this certainly looks like the place to 'play'."

"Tiago! My man!"

They were approached by a scarlet macaw.

Tiago responded, "Rico! My main macaw! What up, bird?"

Tiago then said, "Yo, Vivo! Meet Rico Rodríquez! Bar owner pet by day, actual bar owner at night!"

Rico said, "Vivo? Vivo Hernández? The kinkajou Plaza performer?"

Vivo responded, "That's me. Nice to meet you."

Rico immediately started shaking his paw, "The pleasure's all mine! In fact, it's always a pleasure to have pets of such high-quality talents to so much as step foot into my little side of paradise!"

Vivo responded while having his paw rather vigorously shook, "Flattered to know you feel that way."

When Rico finally let go, Vivo's paw was still shaking.

Stella giggled as she helped him stop it.

Rico then asked, "Hey, uh, can I interest you in a drink? Granted it's either water or cat milk, but I like to add a tiny umbrella or two. When it comes to good tastes, atmosphere is quite an important quality."

Vivo responded, "I'm good. Thanks."

Rico then said, "Oh, but we do have a much bigger variety of meals! Fresh meat, birdseed, fruit salad, anything a pet could ask for!"

Vivo couldn't help but ask, "I'm curious; How do you get a lot of pet food into a bar?"

Rico laughed, "Easy! I got a guy at the pet store!"

Vivo said, "Well, anyways, I'm fine. Thanks again."

Rico said, "Hey, thank you for being a guest here at the Scarlet Macaw!"

Just then, applause could be heard.

That meant the current act had ended.

With that, Tiago then asked Rico, "Yo, Rico, mind if I take the mic?"

Rico said, "Have at it, man!"

Tiago immediately flew up above the crowd.

He then got everyone's attention.

"Attention! Attention, please!"

The whole bar quieted down.

"Alright, everyone listen up! Tonight, we brought in a new friend from out of town, so let's make him feel welcome the best way we know how...with the sickest beats!"

Everyone cheered as Tiago got on the stage.

On the stage was also a small DJ set with a couple of speakers.

With them, Tiago started some crazy dance music.

"Party in the Florida Keys, baby!"

The girls had already started dancing.

Although, Vivo was a little unsure.

But then...he saw Stella dancing.

She was so talented.

She moved to the music perfectly.

***

🎵I'm that samba

Samba master, master, master, master, master

Who shouts out?

Imma get your blaster, blaster, blaster, blaster, blaster🎵

***
She then looked over and noticed he wasn't dancing.

She gestured him to join her.

But Vivo politely shook his head.

***

🎵You dance fast

But I dance faster, faster, faster, faster, faster

You too slow

You need to catch up

You can dance and dance but🎵

***

However...a certain spoonbill was behind him.

Vivo helped him find love...now it was his turn to help him back.

He pointed his eyes another way...and bumped Vivo forward.

Right into Stella.

Vivo glared back at Dancarino, who just shrugged his shoulders with a smile.

He then looked back at Stella, who just smiled.

She took his paw and tried to get him to dance with her.

Vivo could no longer resist.

He started dancing...with her.

Dancarino looked at them with a proud smile.

And everyone else was in awe of how well they danced together.

At that point, Stella couldn't help but do her own solo.

And Vivo was in awe at how beautiful her voice was.

***

🎵Laya, laya, laya, laya

Laya, laya, laya, laya, laya, laya, laya, laya🎵

***

Once her solo finished, Stella couldn't help but look at Vivo with a rather...love-struck look.

Vivo looked at her the same way.

As they did, they got closer...

***
🎵 Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey🎵

***

And closer...

It seemed like...

***

🎵 Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey🎵

***

They were about...

To...

***

🎵Hey, hey, hey, hey🎵

***

The music stopped.

The two snapped out of it and chuckled slightly sheepishly.

Dancarino and Valentina both head-slapped.

Dancarino said, "Ugh, so close."

Valentina then said, "Aw, don't worry. Sometimes, it takes a little more time."

Dancarino replied, "That's right! But we don't need more time! We already know we're meant to be!"

Valentina said, "Yes, we do and are!"
