(I'm skipping to a few days after the Sully's arrive)

~|•Aonung's pov•|~

It's just hitting dark, and it's been a few, long days since those sully freaks have arrived, but it's different..

There's this boy, surprisingly, one of the sully boys, the eldest to be infact.

I'm not sure what it is, is it the way he moves? The way his eyes shine underneath the sunlight? His beautiful face? I couldn't help but think over and over again about what it could be that really attracts me..

I move slightly, brushing my fingers over ruff sand, it reminded him of something, the sand is soft, very soft.

As the cold breeze hits my face, I come to realize my cheeks are burning up, am I blushing? Over some thoughts over a..boy? I gasped at that very thought..

'no way' I chuckled to myself, although I knew damn well it was true.

I kept think, what would it be like to even like a boy anyway..would it be different from girls? But before I got the chance to think of an answer someone's heavy footsteps echoed through the quiet morning.

I jumped as I felt a familiar warm hand grasp my shoulder ever so gently.

"Calm down reef boy, it's just me." Neteyam smirked

My ears perk up, after hearing his voice, his voice does, I have to admit, calm me.

I looked up and smiled at him

"Well if it isn't Forrest boy" I managed to get out

I'm not sure if it was the way I said it but, it must of been funny cause, when I looked up to stare at his beautiful eyes, he chuckled, a sweet chuckle too.

Once again, my cheeks start burning up, 'damnit' I thought flustered to myself.

Before I could say anything else, still staring at him, he bent down and sat next to me on the sand, my heart raced as I felt his skin touch mine, my eyes darted away from his.

"Are you alright? Aonung?" He questioned, curiously.

I couldn't answer him, he would definitely think I'm weird, and that's the last thing I want.

"Oi, I'm talking to you" he cups my face with his hands, my heart beats so fast that I think it's going to just explode.

My face turns into an oven, and Neteyam definitely notices that.

I try and look away, but his grasp on my face is strong, but so warm and gentle, he's so close, I can feel his breath on my cheek.

"What is the matter?" He looks frustrated now, a look I don't see often, or at all.

"Nothing.." I answer in a whisper.

He shakes his head gently.

Neteyam raises his hand and lifts my chin, to look at me properly.

"Aonung?" He says, looking deep into my eyes

"Yes? Forrest boy?" I finally snap out of the trance he put me in, and answer him like anyone else would.

It's very dark now, so before he could say anything else I interrupt him

"I should get going, it's late, and I have to teach tomorrow, as well as you have to learn" I stated

I got up, and was about to take off, back to my hut, but before I took a step, neteyam grabbed my hand,-

"Wait- please, I just wanna talk-" He tried whilst still holding my hand.

But I couldn't take it, I could literally hear my heart thumping in my chest, I ran for my life, although I nearly slipped in the sand..

After a couple minutes of running, I finally made it to my hut, I gasped through the entry, as I bent down slightly, put of air.

My sister, Tisreya, was there, she gave me a look, that said, 'where have you been and why you outta breath?' my mother honestly gave me the same look, my dad just looked at them both, their confused look, and just chuckled to himself.

I just rolled my eyes, although I could feel the edge's of my mouth slowly tugging into a smile.

I jumped into bed, and lay in silence, still can't keep that damn sully boy out of my head.

I slowly drifted of to sleep, and frankly, I hope I do have dreams about that damn Forrest boy...
