ride with me

"Ma tsahik!" a voice calls out to you, startling you and making you drop the basket of clams you had collected.

You knew only one person would call you this when his own mother was currently the actual tsahik. Ao'nung. You look at him, leaving your mess in front of you.

"Ao'nung... pick this up," you say to him, you cross your arms.

"Yes (Y/n)..." he quietly says while picking up the clams in front of you, putting them in the basket.

"Alright, what do you want?" you say as he hands you back the basket.

"Why do you assume I want something?" he asks, putting his arm around you. You lean into him a bit.

"Hm, maybe because it's been a bit since we've hung out. Even though I am in your home everyday, training with your mother," you say, looking at his face.

He sheepishly looks away, "well no everyday, the past couple days you weren't there."

"So you were looking for me?"

"I- No, I was stopping by my own home."

"If you were wondering where I could've been. I was helping the Sully's get used to living in the water. Teaching them, like you are supposed to do as well," you say while you start walking.

"Of course you've been helping the Sullys. You should hang out with me instead," Ao'nung whines.

"But your father said we have to help them, and I am doing what the olo'eyktan says."

"But I'm your olo'eyktan, so you should listen to me," he continues to whine.

You roll your eyes at him, leave his arm, and drop off the basket to one of the na'vi that was working on preparing dinner for later that day. You thank you, and turn to Ao'nung to finally reply to him.

"You would be my olo'eyktan, if your father was dead. And you don't want a dead father, do you?" you say, pushing at his chest. You hear the na'vi that you gave the clams to laugh at your comment, leading you to carry a smile on your face.

Many people knew the fate that Ao'nung and you held together. The leader's son and the girl with an eventful birth being put together like a book being bound together. No matter what they did, their actions had to be intertwined no matter what. The people of the Awa'atlu had watched the two from a distance, so seeing them interact up close was like a treasure that was to keep shiny.

"Yeah, but... whatever. Spend more time with me, please?" he asks, his eyes pleading as he stares as deeply as he could into your soul.

"I will, I will. You're so interested in hanging out all of sudden, what happened?" you say, suspicious of his actions. You didn't mind spending more time with him, you actually enjoyed it a lot. Just like you had said though, his interest in spending time with you wasn't there before.
