"So who do you like more, Callie or Marie?"
Blu and his acquaintances were eating lunch together after a turf war.
"Uh, I don't really know..."
"I think Callie, she's so beautiful." One of them blushed, taking a bite of their sandwich.
"Mine is Marie. She's so smart and cute which is a bonus."
"Well," Blu rubbed his neck and smiled.
"Is both an answer 'cause I'd take both any day."
"I don't know, I've never really noticed girls but I don't know..."
"What, do you mean."
"Like since recently..."
"Ooh,who is she?"
Blu looked around. Priscilla was at a table with her other orange friends laughing and joking with other girls.
"Oh my splat, you like that cutie?"
"That one?" Another nodded.
"Right there." Blu pointed to his friend.
"She's adorable." One remarked.
"Meh," he shook his hand back and forth," pretty. I guess."
"Gorgeous." Blu sat back down, red as a tomato.
"Have you told her?"
"Oh no,no,no." Blu waved his hands.
"Why?"
"Because we practically live together, and it would make things terribly awkward."
"I mean...yeah I can see where you're coming from."
"I mean it would be great but not, know what I'm saying?"
The guys nodded.
"This is weird. I got to take a breather."
"We'll go with you."
"I'm actually going to talk to Priscilla..."
The guys stopped in their tracks. "Go get 'em tiger."
"Thanks..." He walked over to the orange squid girl's table and asked for Priscilla.
"I'll be back girls." She laughed.
Blu smiled and walked towards the exit. He didn't dare look at her.
"Are you okay Blu?"
"Uh...yeah, are you?"
"A bit tired, but other than that I mean I'm okay I guess."
"Good, I wouldn't want you feeling unwell."
"It seems as if you were to be feeling that way."
"Oh, believe me, I'm fine." He went to push himself out the door.
"I don't think you are." She grabbed his hand.
His knees got wobbly. " What do you think is wrong?"
"I just didn't get enough sleep, it's killing me."
"Oh, I'm sorry my nightmares were keeping you awake."
"No, it's fine really."
"Maybe I should find my own place from now on."
"That's not what I'm saying, I'm just a bit moody that's all. I'll get over it."
"I thought you didn't mind staying up with me."
"I didn't."
"Well it seemed as if it did," she scraped shoulders with him and ran outside.
"Priscilla," he yelled.
It was no use she was gone.
