→ Lo'ak is 100% the insecure kinda jealous, not the fustrated/ angry type
→ You, Lo'ak, Neteyam, Kiri and Tuk were spending the day playing in the forest.
→ You all sat down by a small pool of water, and were telling eachother stories.
→ You were sat crossed legged on the ground, Lo'ak laying horizontal to you with his head on your thigh. Kiri was sat in the shallow part of the water, skimming the water with her fingertips, and Neteyam was sat the other side of you, with Tuk perched in his lap.
→ Tuk was talking about how she always wanted to go to earth after all the things you had told them about the place, and jumped out of Neteyam's lap to ask you about your old friends.
→ You spoke about them and all the fun things you used to do, amd Tuk asked if you had a best friend.
→ You felt Lo'ak shift slightly, but thought nothing of it.
→ You started telling them stories about your old best friend, and all the things you did together.
→ "He was amazing. I wish he could have come with us" you said as you looked around at the others.
→ They all laughed at the stories of the both of you, well, most of them.
→ Lo'ak stayed quiet.
→ You noticed this, and wondered if he was okay.
→ "Lo'ak, are you alr-"
→ "Im fine" he said, and almost shot up from your lap.
→ "I'm uh, I'm gonna go back" he mutters, holding his head down.
→ "No! Come on, Lo'ak, its not time yet, mama said we can stay out till sunset" Tuk says, running to Lo'ak and pulling at his arm.
→ "No, I just wanna go back, Ill see you all soon" He says, and coldly shakes his sister off and turns away to leave.
→ "Are you sure you're alright Lo'ak?" You question, and stand up to try and meet his gaze.
→ "Im fine, just leave it" Lo'ak shuts you down quickly, and walks off.
→ You don't believe him, and go after him, making sure Neteyam is alright with taking Kiri and Tuk back later.
→ You jog towards him and grab his forearm, pulling him around to face you, but with him knowing its you, he keeps his head glued to the floor.
→ "Lo'ak, come on I know somethings wrong. Tell me." You say, and slightly lean into him so his eyes meet yours.
→ You hear him faintly sigh.
→ "Am I your bestfriend?" He asks, almost pleadingly.
→ "What? Why would you-" you begin.
→ "Am I or am I not your best friend, y/n?" He repeats, in a slightly harsher tone.
→ "W ha- Lo'ak, of course you are. Why would you say that?" You ask, confused as to why he would even question that.
→ "Because, you sounded so happy when talking about your best friend from the sky and I didnt know if-"
→ "Lo'ak stop," You say softly with a smile, grabbing his hand, "You are my bestfriend. And I couldn't ask for a better one. You mean the world to me Lo'ak, I hope you know that."
→ "Really?" He asks, quietly.
→ "Yes, Lo'ak. For now and forever."
→ Lo'ak tries to contain his smile. You dip your head and chuckle, him catching on and doing the same.
→ "You mean the world to me too, y/n" He says shyly.
→ You smile and pull him back to the others.
