Requests Are Open If Any Of You Were Wondering.

Requests are open if any of you were wondering.

I do have rules

For now I do set that I do not do smut, it’s very uncomfortable for the younger characters even as aged up, but I do allow ages up parents fluff. No sexual tension, activities or any thing related to anything sexual.

I don’t do adults cause idk it’s just kind of uncomfortable cause they are all mated and have their own family and stuff. But I will do it if it’s platonic relationship

I will have more thinking as I continue to complete chap 3 of my series CHEIF’S DAUGHTER.

CHEIF’S DAUGHTER

Pt.3

Neteyam x f!metkayina!reader

Warning: maybe there aren’t any?

Idk tell me

__________________________________________

Weeks had gone by since sullies came

You have gotten closer and closer to the sisters . Tuk was a cute little energy ball, you took her under your care as if you’re her mother. Kiri was a great friend, you sometimes gossip with her and Tsireya about random annoying stuffs around your clans, laughing about how dumb the boys can be, how unreal the expectations the elders set. You definitely enjoy your time with them. Yeah you like those times

You definitely love them.

Right now is not really the time to think of those.

“Father..” you said in a small tone walking up to him. His back facing you, covering the scene.

“Y/n..” he says quietly. Waiting for you to finally take in what’s in front of him

He knows you’ll act exactly like your mother in these kind of situations. Soft as clouds when needed but then hard as a boulder when there’s something that needs professional care, especially fights of any conflict. Though you’re more understanding than your mother, something you got from your father.

There stood Neteyam with a split lip, small bruises spotted over, his brother, Lo’ak with bruises all over his body and your idiot brother with a ginormous bruise on his left cheek and chin, his other friends are also in the same messed up condition

Once their eyes spot you, all their head left hanging down, hair covering their scared face.

Oh shit you frowned

………………………………………………………………………….

“What is the meaning of this Ao’nung?!” You said furiously at your brother for his stupid actions. Pulling his ear down and setting him down in your marui. Followed along by some of his dumb friends.

“But sister! They have five fingers! They are not one of us-“ he was cut of by a groan. You pressed the healing paste harder on his bruised cheek. “Five, nine or whatever, that does not matter! They did no harm to us!” You said harshly

From what you were told, Ao’nung and his friends decided it was fun to pick on Kiri, thought it was cool until Neteyam and Lo’ak kicked their butts.

“When will you ever learn that your actions have consequences!” You said with an annoyed tone of voice.

Your mother knows where to send Ao’nung to when he does something stupid.

Ship him right to his big sister who scolds him ten times worse than his mother. And ten times longer to finish.

“But sister!-“

“There is no buts!”

You said harshly finishing his healing.

“On your knees now!” You demanded

Both him and his friends passed each others looks, confused

“Sit down!” You said harsher and louder making them flinch

Sitting down immediately not wanting to upset you any further

“Do you any idea what you have all done? Not only going against the Olo’eyktan’s words! But also hurt them!” You paused

“I can’t believe the amount of times I have to take care of you and your dumbass friends who can’t be normal for 2 days! You know how busy I am! Making me take care of your foolish actions are not helping!”

“But-“

“I said no buts!” Grinding the paste harder

“As the second oldest son of the Awata’lu village’s Olo’eyktan! I expect you to start acting more mature! You are 15, Ao! You can just run around the village making a mess while mother and father were busy doing their works!”

At this point they can all hear the hard rock clashing against the hard bowl you use to grind, hoping that it won’t broke

“A little sisterly advice, if you weren’t always trying to wreck too hard you wouldn’t be in the way”

“Actually Y/n! This is called helping! And I’m not in the way you ar-“

Before Ao’nung could get any words in, you quickly put out a hand stopping making him pulse his lips in a straight line.

“You do not have a say in this after what all of you have done! Why do you care so much about how Kiri and Lo’ak has five fingers instead of four? At this point I’m pretty damn glad Lo’ak showed you what he can do with his extra finger!”

All their mouths are zipped shut, hands clenched dip, fingers digging into the palm of their hands as they pray to Eywa you were finished

You can only sigh at this

As much as you despise your brother’s stupid actions, you loved him more

“I will have mercy” you said

They all look up to meet your tired face

“But you all! Go apologize this instant!” You said loudly making all of them dip their head down

“And if I ever hear you making those stupid actions ever again! I will shove my spear so far up your ass you’ll never see the light of day ag-“

“I’m sorry to interrupt but I was told to come here to get patched up?”

Neteyam came in, lifting up the curtains. Stopping at midway, taking in the odd scene in front of him

“Um should I come in?”

“Yes, come in, take a seat, I’ll be right with you”

You shoot a glare at your brother and his friends.

“Go. Make it up to them. I will help with Neteyam” you said shooing them away

Quickly on their feet as they run out of your marui

Neteyam gulped as he feels your eyes on him.

“Come” your hand reaches out, then gently patting on the matted seat

He awkwardly walk towards you as he take in the decorations around your marui

It definitely gives of a cozy vibe but something just doesn’t seem right

Jars and bowls filled to the brim with herb leaves, tall bottles of medicines and serums, vines of berries and spices clinging on the marui’s tilting ceiling. The smell of herbs and medicine linger around.

His observation got cut off the moment your fingers touched his skin.

His glaze slowly turns to your smaller figure next to him

You were so close

So so close

Wait hell nawh so close he can feel the warmth radiating from your skin

He never minded when getting patched up by any of the healers except his grandma back in his clan

But you got him absolutely dumbfounded

Gently rubbing the paste on his bruises, your eyes were so concentrated, you didn’t even notice how his big yellow eyes were staring at your face

“I’m sorry for what my brother did to your sister” you said quietly

“Despite his age, his mind is still that of a child’s” bending over to apply a small amount of paste on his lips

Sighing heavily you finally looked up into his long waiting eyes

If fucking flustered wasn’t the words to describe how Neteyam is feeling right now I don’t know what else to put

“You’re done, you’re free to go out”

Bending up you walked back to your table, placing the bowl on the other side while starting to clean up the herbs

“It’s ok, my brother can be an idiot too” he answered with a big smile

“Bet he’s more mature than Ao’nung, that idiot can even go 2 days without messing something up”

If any chance this would be it, he wanted to talk to you since the day he came, but just couldn’t find a way or a topic that would make the conversation between you two last longer.

For once is he thankful for having a troublesome brother

“Nope, he’s always dragging Kiri and Tuk and Spider into danger” he says, voice full of annoyance

“Spe-der?”

You repeated one of the names he mentioned. No it doesn’t sound like a navi name to you

“Spiii-derr” he corrects you, slowing down his voice for easier understanding

“What a strange name?” You asked him, face confused

“Yeah he’s a human who plays with us” he explained but your face is still scrunched up with confusion

“Oh wait um yeah, we call them sky demons?-“ he corrected himself then quickly add in for the judgy face you gave

“He’s nice actually! He learnt our ways and our language! He even defended us!” He says calming you down

“Sky demons… harm or not they should never fully trust him” you frowned, voice before gentle and soothing as a mother’s lullaby now a voice that stabs venom

This surely isn’t the way he wanted his only chance to go. Might as well write a farewell letter for it cause it was just ruined for him mentioning a human friend’s name while in war with them. That’s no way to court and Navi girl.

The tension in the room now is tensed, your face features went stoic for the sensitive topic, his face littered with nervousness.

He looked around the room trying to find another chance to talk to you, to hear your gentle motherly voice again

“Soooooo…” he says

“What’s with these flowers?” He asked poking at one what was next to him

“Do you not like them?”

“No no! I really do love them! They’re are all very pretty but I was just wondering why there’s so many” he says looking up to the ceilings and around the room. Noted that flowers can be found almost anywhere

“I just thought it was a good was to lighten up the marui’s atmosphere” you said sighing

“But I do like to think each of them holds a different story, much like our song cords ..” you said looking up at one

“Then what story does this one holds?” He asked pointing at the one next to him

“It was for Tsireya’s 8th birthday” you smiled at the flower

“What about this one?” He asked now pointing at the one near the entrance

“Me and my mother planted it on Tsireya’s birth ceremony” you explained

“How about that one?”

“It was when Ao’nung started his hunt training, I had to instruct him”

“That one?”

“When I marked my first Tsahik training”

“And that one?”

“My first and forever Tsurak”

“You have a tsurak!?” He asked with an impressed voice.

“Yes, it was a gifted training after I perfect the basic healing of the Tsahik training” you smiled proudly

“Damn you’re skilled” he claimed happily

Looking around for a bit he noticed one that was yet to bloom

“Why hasn’t that one bloom?” He asked pointing at the flower near your table

“My mother said it’ll bloom once I find something I have been missing, Tsireya’s one has bloomed yet mine still doesn’t no matter how careful I raise it” you explained to him

“Maybe one day it’ll bloom”

“Yeah one day…”

You both stared at it for a while before deciding to head for dinner

Today was a fiesta

The whole village gather in the community marui, the sullies was invited

Well for you know who, Än’pei is actually gonna propose today

“With Än’pei and Y/n together, our village will bloom with success” your father announces, giving a speech once everyone was seated

Your of course was next to Än’pei

He wiggle his brows at you “you look stunning my syulang” he says staring at you with love stuck eyes

“Yes thank you, Än’pei”

“I notice you don’t give me any pet names.. why is that my love?” He asked swirling parts of your hair strains with his finger

“Well…um” you looked sideways and back at him, trying to find an excuse

“I um much prefer your name Än’pei, it speaks only you” you force a smile on your face, face muscles already tired from all the forcing

“Tonight we salut to our new Olo’eyktan and Tsahik! Än’pei and Y/n!” You father happily announced loudly as the whole clans cheered

Everyone started eating, talking, singing, kids run around playing with each other while your father chat along with Än’pei’s father

Though not everyone

Neteyam is confused and flustered, angry even. Seeing how you act with Än’pei, he knew you have no interest in Än’pei, yet that dumbass is so blind about you opinion on this marriage.

Tsireya was eye wide, biting her nails, what seem like her brushyher hair with her fingers was actually her pulling her hair, absolutely sweating. She’s such a nervous wreck right now. You can even see her mumbling prayers to Eywa that something can stop this. Her eyes wide, even if her sweat drops spilled down to her eyes she wouldn’t even bother blinking, eyes drained on you and your so called lover

Roxto was just as worried, patting Tsireya’s back as her prayers begin to become louder and louder then to be shut down again by Roxto

Kiri and Tuk just sat there staring at you and your nervous form. Face filled with worries seeing how Tsireya is reacting to this fiesta.

“Um Tsireya? Are you alright?”

“Yeah! I’m totally FINE!” She says gritting her teeth together to make that sentence come out less aggressive

Än’pei’s father came up behind him as he gets nudged by his dad. Nodding at his father’s gestures.

He stood up clearing his throat, catching everyone’s attention before announcing anything

Everyone attention quickly turned to the two of you as Än’pei begins his proposal

“Y/n… the most graceful of all Metkayina”

Tsireya’s prayer were heard louder, Än’pei turned his attention to her as he was confused

Tsireya was quickly smacked by Roxto in the back to stop her loud praying, now praying harder in her mind

“You’ve doing great!” Roxto gives him a thumbs up for him to get on with his proposal

“Um ok…” he turned back to you as he holds you hand

“The most perfect flower in this entire ocean..”

Tsireya’s prays we’re heard again, Roxto biting his nails, neteyam’s eyes were wide staring, Tuk and Kiri were holding each other’s hands, sweat is clearly seen on their face

Your force smile isn’t that unnoticeable anymore as Än’pei continues on his proposal not a single sign on his face makes you think that he see that you hate this

“Will you, ma Y/n.. marry m-“

“Ao’nung?..”

“What? No y/n it’s Än’pei-“ he looks up at you to see you looking at your brother lowering his head in guilt

Someone in the crowed asked where Lo’ak is and now the proposal is ruined.

Tsireya’s prayers were finally heard, she passes out, ended up banging her head on the table because of her 30 minutes of endless speed up aggressively praying to Eywa for something to pause this proposal, nails biting, hair pulling, body shaking and extreme sweat

Än’pei stood up, looking at Ao’nung, confused why he crashed his proposal.

“Ao’nung….” Walking over as he hang his head low, not meeting your concern stare

“Ao’nung where’s Lo’ak?” You hurriedly asked, hands on his shoulder lightly shaking him while tilting your head down, trying to find his face

“I-“

“You what Ao’nung!” Your brows begin to bend, thoughts ran through your mind

“Left him beyond the reef…”

His voice small only for you to hear

Gasping as you let your hands go from his shoulders, looking at him as if he’s some stranger

“Sister please don’t look at me like that- I-“

“What’s going on?” Neteyam asked as he puts a hand on your shoulder, your back against his chest

He looked down at your worried face

“I cannot believe you!” You turned to your father , face flustered and angried

Neteyam shared looks with Ao’nung before demanding an explanation

.

.

.

“The boy has been found”

One of the members of the search party said as he carried Lo’ak back near the shore

“The boy is fine, only a few scratches” Jake said after examining his second eldest son

“I pray to Eywa for the strength to not pluck out the wye of my second eldest son” Neytiri claimed gesturing a grouching motion to Lo’ak eye

You stood next to your father as your heart beat with shame

“This is my son’s fault, he should have known better” your father said , grabbing Ao’nung’s nape and pushing him down to his knee

“No it’s my fault I tried to talk Ao’nung out of it!” The young boy claimed

You furrowed your eyes with confusion, looking at your brother than at Lo’ak.

“That’s enough Lo’ak” Jake said pulling him away

.

.

“Go apologize to your sister! You’ve crashed her proposal!” Ronal demanded, harsh tone leaving her throat as she banged her hand on the table

“Go boy, come back until you make peace” Tonowari said pushing Ao’nung away

It has been 2 days since the ruined proposal, and yet his sister still hasn’t talk to him.

This time he flopped bad, the only thing you’ve ever done to him when he does something stupid was to patch him up and give him a long lecture. Now you wouldn’t even talk to him. It’s starting to make him think you really wanted to marry that dumb boy

Walking up to your marui, he takes a deep breath before coming in

“Y/n? Heyyyyyy?” He asks making his appearance known in the dark marui

“I know we have had our issues, and problems, and I feel really bad for crashing your proposal but I’m ready for what it takes to be a better brother!” He claimed loudly as he doesn’t see your figure anywhere in the marui

Starting to think he should leave, he turned his heels, bout to walk out

“Better brother?” You asked, repeating what he said in his apology

“Lo’ak was found scratched and left beyond the reef..” slowly walking out of the shadow of your marui

“Än’pei had to re-propose and Tsireya passed out!” Now standing in the middle of your marui

“You want to be a better brother? Apologize for what you did!” You said irritated by Ao’nung annoyed face

He stays silent

“Go on.. apologize” you reminded him

“ I- I am sorr-ry” he said moving his mouth in an uncomfortable position to say it

Smiling at his defeated face, this might be the first time you’ve ever felt great lecturing your brother

“That your life is SOOOO GREAT-“

“Out” you said turning away

“I wasn’t trying to ruin your life!” He yelled

Seeing that you’re not listening

“Some of us has bigger problems! You selfish entitled PRINCESS!“

The only thing escaped your mouth was a gasp

“Selfish!?” Your damn right angry. You know you have never been selfish in your life, others even say you’re selfless.

“ I have been STUCK! being PERFECT! My whole entire life and LITERALLY the only thing you have ever done to me is MESS IT UP!”

“Everything IS perfect! You can still marry that big dumb hunk!”

“I NEVER WANTED TO MARRY HIM! I WAS DOING IT FOR THE VILLAGE!”

“…”

“…”

“Sister..”

“Don’t even. Get out.”

You said walking back to your table, setting down while preparing your Tsahik training again

“I’m sorry..”

He said then walking out.

Your back feels heavy, your breath feels heavy, your head hurts, your whole body aches.

“What have I done…”

.

.

.

“Please mother I’m telling you! You can’t force her to love someone she has no interest in!” Ao’nung begs his mother

“Nonsense Ao’nung! She loves him! Eywa had already spoken! Their are a matching made in heaven!” She says, batting her son away

“But mother can’t you see! She has no interest! I had gone and asked the great mother! She said nothing of Än’pei and Y/n!” He argued

It was last night when he visited the ancestors cove to ask for you and Än’pei. Eywa said no such thing. Instead it was Neteyam and You. A small family, but then everything goes black to appear with sky demons.

His mother lied to the whole clan. You and Än’pei wouldn’t lead to anything nor any where.

It was just a bluff since she was the Tsahik, no one dared to question her predictions.

“You visited the cove?!” She asked voice filled with panic

“I did! And it’s not Än’pei and Y/n! It’s ughhhh-“

He hate saying it, any na’vi have a mate, but why does his sister has to fall in love with a half blooded demon.

“It’s one of the Sullies!” He spit it out

“You’ve the one who’s going against Eywa’s will!” He pointed his mother. Her face now burning with anger

“Nonsense! Boy go fix yourself! I cannot believe I have a son like you! You dare ruin this family again I will kick you out of clan!” She said loudly, slamming her fists down to the table, making the jars of herbs and stacks of scrolls tumbles.

“Fine!” He said walking out of the marui, stomping his feet

He cannot believe it, cannot believe that his mother wanted to force her daughter to be married to someone she doesn’t love, cannot believe that she would threaten to kick him out of the clan for stopping such a bullshit accuse of a marriage.

.

.

.

It has been 5 days since the ruined fiesta

“You must practice your breathing every day, even now” you said to neteyam

“Wake up and practice your breathing, that’s the only way you’ll ever get better”

Uhhum” Neteyam hums in response

“It was only a small test” you chuckled in response

“You can breath but not so efficiently” you touch his stomach

“Gotta practice to do that now hum?”

“Alright alright”

Neteyam haven’t left your side since the day the fiesta was ruined. He was there for you, comforting and helping you. Messing wit you sometimes to make you laugh, getting you distracted from all those expectations you had to require.

It was comforting to have him by, your heart felt warm and your body feels light everytime he’s near. So much so that you had to force down a big urge to jump on him and give him a big bear hug everytime you see him.

He really does make you happy

A big horn blown rang through both your ears.

Your face change quick. A big smile plastered on your face. The hair on your nape stood up in excitement.

“My sister!” You told Neteyam

“Come! I want to show you my spirit sister!”

You said stood up fast before calling out for an ilu

“Everyone! Our brothers and sister have returned!”

Neteyam chuckled. He adored the way you can look like a child being returned to their parents after a daycare. He adored the way you know when to act modest and formal, and when to actually have fun. Your eyes were filled with hope and anticipation.

“Hop on forest boy” you called for him already on your ilu

Many other villagers are already jumping into the water. But you have to take an ilu for Äeïn’lei’s special conditions.

“What’s this all about?” He said smiling at you

“The tulkuns have returned, so has my spirit sister, Äeïn’lei!” You turned to him

“I want you to meet her” you explain hurriedly to him

“I’m down for new frien-AH-“ he couldn’t finish and you have already duck down with your ilu. His one hand grabbed on your waist while the other grabbed on your thigh to secure. Slightly open his eyes as you come closer to the scene.

Navis, tulkuns, ilus, tsuraks,etc all playing around with each other. Talking to each other about their family, work, snickering secrets

You tapped him on the shoulder signing him to look at what you’re pointing at. he looks over to see a big tulkun, slowly turning to you guys

‘That’s Äeïn’lei!’ You signed him, disconnecting your queue with the ilu’s.

You swam closer to her, greeting her

You and Äeïn’lei Isn’t actually the same age. She older than you, at small, she’s like a bigger sister you (other than Tsireya), or like a mother to you.

To your surprise, Äeïn’lei lifted up her fin to reveal a calf. Her baby. You smile at her.

‘Your baby is beautiful, Äeïn’lei’ tilting your head with a big smile.

‘Thank you, I’ve waited many seasons for have him’

‘And waited much longer for a mate’ she let out a sound similar to remind you to find a mate.

Not this time you’ll be ughed by her

‘Actually, dear sister’ you signed, pausing a little

Your face muscles ache trying to keep down the big smile

‘I met a boy’ you finished dots glowing

Her eyes lifted in a pleases manner.

Neteyam saw how your conversation was going. His freckles glow at the thought of you mentioning a boy then looking at him

She eyes down Neteyam from a far, making you look at her direction. Both your eyes were on Neteyam making him nervous

If you can sweat underwater he would be sweating so much right now.

You smile at him, waving at him to come meet your sister.

He swims closer to you. One arm rested on your hip, pulling you in to him. Greeting her.

‘So a forest boy?’ She let out a sound echoing in the water

‘Yes, his name is Neteyam’ you signed her tilting your head towards him

‘Hello’ he signs to her

She seems pleased, waved her fin up, bringing you to break the water surface then slapping back down.

‘Grab on’ she signs before reaching out her for you to grab as she glides through the rough water. Her calf quickly swims right under her.

You and neteyam quickly grab on as she glided through

He saw everything. The beauty of the ocean, the beauty of love and you.

You look so beautiful smiling

Chaotic tsireya memes for my series

Y’all I’m in my exam week so I might not be able to update as frequently but I’ll try as much as I can on my series

CHEIF’S DAUGHTER

Pt.2

Neteyam x f!metkayina!reader

Summary: your duty is now to keep an eye on the new arrivals. Observing their training and abilities with your siblings. You’re not the only one observing tho

__________________________________________

“Oh dear sister you should’ve came!” Tsireya bolted into your marui, filling it up with her bubbly personality

“Oh it was so fun!” She giggles quickly sitting down in front of you with a big grin

“Though extremely tiring, the sullies can’t keep their breath underwater for long” she pouts waiting for a response

“I saw” you said looking up at her “and I saw everything” now your calm face twisted into a smirk

“You have my blessing” you quickly chipped in

“What! No sister! That isn’t what you think it was I was just helping Lo’ak with his breathing and what he’s doing wrong and-“

“So that’s the boy’s name” you cut her mid sentence

“Sounds pretty nice with yours I mean-“

“Dear sister Y/n please”

“Yes yes I won’t tease you no longer”

The two of you laughed like little girls gossiping. Not everyday you get to spend time with Tsireya, you have always been busy helping your parents. If not hunting, then healing. If not helping people with their work then it’s about chores. If not teaching little girls in your village how to dance and sing then it’s about practicing your moves.

“By the way, I think you got and admirer from a far” Tsireya chipped in when your laugh died down

“I could say the same for you”

“No but really!”

“The older Sully boy!” She pointed out.

“Neteyam! He asked so many questions about you today!” The table has turned. She’s now the one smirking.

“Soooo sooo many, like ‘hey what’s her name?’ ‘Is she older than you?’ ‘Who is she?’ ‘Does she teach?’ ‘Is she mated to anyone?’ Bla bla bla” she listed

“ and how did you respond?” Your looks curiously

“Oh just answering what he asked ‘her name is Y/n’ ‘she’s my big sister’ ‘she does but not diving’ bla bla bla again” she continues, extremely dedicated to the topic of the conversation.

Seeing that you didn’t respond. She quickly explained “come on! You out of all people should understand! He clearly take an interest to you!”

“Oh don’t be silly, small down or mother and father will hear!” You can only giggle at her statement

“Then see for yourself! Come with us to our training ground tomorrow. I bet his eyes will probably be glued to you” she dares you

“I have a lot to do, you know how mother and father expects a lot from me” you sighs

“Plus you, Roxto and Ao’nung is more than enough to teach them all” you claimed

“Pretty pretty pleaseeeeeeee” she begs exaggerating

“If you don’t come then Ao’nung won’t stop bullying them!” She said reaching out for an excuse that definitely make you come

“He bullies them?”

“Uhmm… yes!” This is her only ticket for you to come. And she isn’t letting it go even if all hell breaks

“Alright, I will come” You might be able to see but you never really heard what they talk about when training. Being there will definitely keep Ao’nung’s rude mouth away.

Tsireya was excited with the news. Pounced on you, hugging tightly. “Oh sister thank you thank you thank you!!!!” She squeals like a little girl getting confessed to by her crush.

“I’ll go help mother!” She suddenly says.

“Come home soon!”

Yes you have your own marui, filled with herbs and scrolls of history, healing and all kinds of Tsahik training stuff. Your parents really do expects a lot from you

__________________________________________

“Mother” you gesture to her as you walk in. Helping your mother prepare for dinner

“I see you have finished your training”

“Ān’pei will be eating with us today, come help me prepare”

Ān’pei. A boy in a village. In short, if Neteyam were a metkayina, he would be Ān’pei. A fine warrior, a great hunter, and had trained all his life for the title Olo’eyktan of the reef village.

Desired by many fine girls. Can say he is quite the eye catcher. Handsome, even you say.

‘He is a perfect future cheif’ your father said in past conversations, trying to pick up the idea of you being mated to him. But you could only play dumb with this.

Silence filled the air as you chop down some fruits. Tsireya was there before. She leans over whispering into your ear.

“Mom and dad invited Ān’pei over for an arranged-“

“Y/n, Ān’pei’s family will come over tonight” your mother interrupted

“We have decided what will be best for you” she continues before breathing in harshly

“You are to be mated. Eywa had spoken. Your pair will bloom for the clan’s future” she lied.

You simply nodded, though heart pounding out of your rib cage

Eywa had not spoken about you and Ān’pei. But your mother was stubborn. She thought she knew the way for your clan. She reaches her hands out calling your near her

You came, crouching down to sit next to her. Silently waiting.

Her hands then pet your hair, turning your head towards her.

“My sweet sweet girl, you are destined to meet your perfect happy ending” she smiles warmly at you

“You’ve made both your father and I, the village, proud” her hand slide down from your hair to your back, patting softly at your warm skin.

Your face was cold. No emotions were shown. Came back to the activity you were doing earlier.

Tsireya looks up at you. Her happy grin and big excited eyes are no longer there, replaced with a worry expression.

She whispers

“As you alright with this? With Ān’pei?” She pokes her head in, finding your face just to find nothing.

You were scared, horrified and filled with rage to be betrothed with another. You said nothing. Keeping those emotions down like you did hundreds of times.

“It is for the future of our clan” you said in a calm tone. You were scared if your heart was beating so hard Tsireya could hear it.

“And Eywa had spoken, we are to be mated” you said sternly

Tsireya could only listen. Her head filled with sadness for you. Her sister to be betrothed to a boy she never loved.

__________________________________________

Ān’pei seems happy with your parents and his decision.

He sat next to you at the dinner. Your skin slightly touches once in a while when moves his arms.

Tapping your thigh to get your attention.

He whisperers in your ear

“You look gorgeous in that headpiece” trying to set the mood with you while your parents chat with each other

You simply give him a smile. ‘Thank you’

Oh the boy didn’t get it. He thought you were so flustered your couldn’t look at him straight in the eye. He thought you were just shy after he complemented your headpiece.

He smile dearly at you. Your headpiece was like your mothers but rather a smaller shell decorated with stringed pearls

He took a flower placing it on your hair, tucking it behind your airs.

“But you look definitely better with just you” he said.

(Oh Eywa save me from his dumb flirts) you thought

“Oh Ān’pei, you’re too kind” you replied. You see his pleased victorious face when you finally aid his name in such a sweet tone.

“Y/n?” He says

“Yes?” You force your sweetest smile to him

“Y/n..?” He repeats

This time you face him, mouth bend to a smile, forcing it all down.

“A pretty name”

“For a beautiful girl” he turns winking at you with a playful grin.

“Oh dear please Ān’pei” you turn away, one hand covering your mouth.

God you wanna punch him so bad.

If only had your parents knew how much staring he does when you are near.

He had always admire you from afar. If your father knew how he was staring at you whenever he catches a glimps of your practicing in your marui, his title as being the perfect suiter for you would be ruined.

Lucky him it never happened.

Ao’nung and Tsireya could only cringes at your suiter trying moves on you.

The dinner ended with your family having a shit ton of presents. And Ān’pei being your “future mate” took your hands and kissed it before his family leaves.

“Till we meet again, my syulang”

You could only fake the smile and blush as you let him do that to you.

Your parents smile at his gestures. They were more than pleased to see him so in love with you.

__________________________________________

“Sister! You can’t just let them do this to you!” Tsireya plead as she walk in circles around your marui the next day.

“You don’t love him now do you?” She asks already knowing the answer

You could only let out a long sigh before continuing to grind your herbs into a paste. Before slowly shaking your head no

“But I’ll learn to love him” you let out

“This is for the future of our people” you finally look up at her

“Please sister, consider it!” She pleaded again

“I cannot bear seeing you suffer! Betrothed to another that you don’t see!” Voice now sound more and more worried

“It’ll be alright” you sighed out, standing up

“About that training with the Sullies, come on now, we don’t want to be late do we” you said leaving your marui, distracting the topic of the last conversation

Tsireya quickly followed behind

“Sister please don’t do this to yourself!”

“Enough Tsireya”

You turn, holding her hands in yours

“Tsireya, it will be fine” flashing her a a reassuring smile.

“I suppose..”

“Now, the sullies training, lead me to them” you said

Tsireya could only take in your words. Leading you to their training ground

“Tsireya” Roxto turns around greeting her before seeing you

“Y/n!” He says surprised you were here. Your name was an alarm for Ao’nung. His sister is here

Quickly turning around to meet your eyes.

“Sister..” he says, quickly greeting you.

Catching the attention of the sullies. Neteyam was the quickest to catch on. It’s you. Finally being able to present himself properly.

Quickly standing up making it towards you.

A formal greeting

“Neteyam Sully” he introduced nervously at your noble aura

“Y/n” you noded to his greeting

“Get on with the training, I am to join too” you glared Ao’nung. He gulped under you angry eyes

Times goes on.

Breathing training. Swimming. Ilu riding. Now back at breathing training to relax after tense activities

“You must breath from here, your lungs can only take in so much” you explained to Neteyam. But no matter how hard you tried, he just couldn’t get it.

“Your heart is beating too fast, you must slow down” you said, a light tap on his chest.

“yes…” he says quietly, breath hitched at your touch.

“No no, that’s not it, neteyam” you brows begin to bend

Shit that’s not good. He didn’t mean to give you a unprofessional impression

“Alright, let’s try again” you breath out and in, tapping his shoulder to copy your breath.

He did. He tried. But failed again. Too busy staring at your beauty. How could he focus. When you, the girl he has been pining since the day he came to the weird lands, is now infront of him, teaching him about the ways of her clan.

“Neteyam” how could he focus when a girl he likes is teaching him how to stay underwater longer.

“Neteyam” how could he focus when a beauty of a girl is infront of him, explaining everything he needs to adapt

“Neteyam!” He snaps out

“Huh?” He looks up to your worried gaze.

“ I know slowing down your breath is good but stopping it isn’t what I want to teach you”

“Oh sorry” he says pressing his lips into a thin line. Breathing in harshly through his nose before letting out a sigh.

“Now what’s a matter that make you like this? Tsireya said you were catching up faster than any of you siblings” you asked

Oh to him, you are so innocent.

Fluttering your lashes, with your big teal eyes looking at him, searching for an answer to your question

“Oh no no I was just um” he paused thinking for a moment. There is no way he’ll just say ‘because you’re beautiful and I cannot focus when such beauty is catching my eyes’. Hands rubbing his chin, thinking deeply for a reasonable lie.

“Cause I miss my home so much, yeah! Oh I miss it so much” he claimed loudly

He felt everyone’s eyes on him. Roxto and Lo’ak was giving each other’s looks, Tsireya was looking amused, Ao’nung was quite confused and Kiri and Tuk was giggling at him.

“Oh well then I guess I understand” you said sitting back to your spot. Neteyam cleared his throat, sitting back up, straighten his posture.

“It’s not easy leaving your home, a place you grew up” you said, trying to comfort him. “I would be sad too, leaving the people, the friends, the family.. all those makes home so dearing to our heart” putting a hand on his shoulder

“I hope you can make Awata’lu your home too” a smile to reassure him.

Only if you knew what on earth of a thought he had going through his head as you comfort him.

He felt a guilty relief. Lying to you was hard, but not telling you the true reason to creep you out was worth the lying. Plus your smile was a damn good memory to pin in his head

“Thank you..” he said

“Ooooooooo” Lo’ak chimed in. “Somebody got a cru-“ a smack from Neteyam ended his teasing.

“Come on get back to training people we have a lot to finish” Roxto distract the whole group back into what they were doing.

Shooting Lo’ak and Ao’nung a smirk

Which Ao’nung only reply with a frown. He didn’t want his sister to fall for a freak, but he doesn’t want her to learn to love a boy she never see. Conflicted was ao’nung feeling

__________________________________________

“May I walk you home?”

The training was done. Everyone went home.

Neteyam came up to you, panting slightly as he ask

“May I walk you home?” He asked, tails swaying around

“If anything I would be the one walking you home” you joked, smiling at the boy.

“Oh no, I remember my way actually” he proudly said

“Then it would be nice thank you” you said walking away

.

It was silent, but a comfortable silence. You didn’t talk, just walk each other home, enjoy the company.

Reached your family marui, he turns to you

“It was nice training with you” he says, trying his best to not shy way from your gaze.

“It was fun too, meet you again tomorrow” you said nodding your head before entering your marui.

“Yeah! Nice to meet you too! Y/n, I mean see you again tomorrow-“ he said, stuttering. Well at least he earned a giggle from you.

He sighs before walking home, great pride he made you giggle

.

“Who was that?” Your mother ask with a stern voice

“Neteyam Sully mother, he asked to walk me home” you explained

“Well as long as he doesn’t do any funny business then I’ll be alright, remember, Ān’pei will be expecting you to be his soon” you mother reminded

“Yes mother”

“Good, now why not help me prepare the medicine for the hunters, Ān’pei got a nasty cut on his arm today, insisted to seek you to heal” she giggles “oh I never thought you could get a boy so in love” nudging you

You can only smile at the news. God that was awful

__________________________________________

“God that was amazing” neteyam muttered to himself as he walked into his marui

You can say his training failed successfully

Neytiri look up at him with an amused look

“How was today’s training neteyam?”

“Oh ma you have no idea how flustered he was when he was near-“ Lo’ak jumped in the marui and was immediately shut up by Neteyam’s hand

“It was great, we learnt a lot! Ma do you need help for dinner, I can help” he shoves it.

“Shut up” a threatening whisper to Lo’ak before letting his hand go and helping neytiri

“Um alright” Both Jake and Neytiri gave each other a look before getting their head back to what they were doing.

.

“I’m telling you bro, the coral I saw under that leaf in the water today, it looked really nice” Lo’ak says, telling Neteyam about the beauty of the sea when he got to ride an ilu with Tsireya

“I saw and I was like wow- and and- Bro? Are you even listening?”

Lo’ak stopped, tilting his head searching for his brother’s face, waiting for an answer

All he found was a day dreaming boy who eye lids were half open, mumbling, humming to a unfamiliar song

“Oh yes yes, continue” Neteyam says not even paying a half the attention his word said he give.

“Bro? Bro?” Lo’ak asked again

Neteyam just continued his humming, while braiding a necklace for a someone special

“Hey!” Lo’ak finally yelled

“What? What were you saying?” Neteyam finally snapped his head to his brother

“Oh forget it, your mind is not on my story” Lo’ak giggled

“Oh you’re thinking about somebody with long lashes and that sweet perfume” he joked

“Oh stop it, Lo’ak” he frowned turning his head back to the necklace.

His mother overheard this, sending a look to Jake as the two brothers speak. Understanding her point, the parents had their ears fully invested into this conversation

“Come on you can’t get your mind off of her, at least admit it”

“Shhhhhh Lo’ak!”

“What? did I hit a jackpot?”

“Oh shut it bro” Neteyam sighed, a bit of a laugh was put in

“Can’t blame ya! She is a beauty, a fine teacher, a grand healer, not to mention the cheif’s perfect daughter” Lo’ak said, giggling at his love stuck brother

“Where did all those big words come from baby bro? Did Tsireya taught you those?” Neteyam teased back, pressing on Lo’ak’a crush’s name.

“Oh come on it’s supposed to be about you and your perfect princess!” Lo’ak exclaimed.

“Haha very funny til it flipped on you and your love bird”

‘Cheif’s daughter? Tsireya? Aren’t those the girls who are to teach the boys the way of water?

Neytiri brow raised, hitting Jake with a curious look. Answered back with a nervous face of her mate.

“Y/n ah a name sweet to the sound” Lo’ak teased his brother, head barging into neteyam’s personal space

“Ahhh yes, a pretty name for a beautiful girl…. Oh y/n y/n” neteyam mumbled to himself

“I’ll wait for the day her full name is Y/n Sully,hum?” He joked his brother but his head pushed away

Neteyam would be lying if he said he didn’t like the topic of you being with him, having his brother hype him up about having a chance with you. But his ego was in the way. There is no way he’d let his brother joke him about his enormous crush that way

“Oh cut it out Lo’ak, I could say the same for you and Tsireya” he pointed out

“Following each other, joking, holding hands like you are already a couple. What ?the next day I see you two courting each other? Oh wait you already did” he said, pushing Lo’ak shoulders which the boy only respond with a deep blush

“Come on baby bro, time to get some sleep ey?”

“Yeah yeah”

“Have fun dreaming about your y/n-“

“Lo’ak!”

Y’all don’t judge me if there are like grammar or vocabulary mistakes, cringy moments. I’m still working on my writing hope you like it though
