It had been a couple weeks since me and Neteyam have mated. He was around more than usual and would check up on me every now and then. At times spider would stay at jakes while Neteyam stayed at mine. But today I felt off. Very off. I quickly shot up and spewed up in a bucket. I groaned at the disgusting feeling. "Sis you okay". Spider shot up from his spot and held back her braids and unwoven hair as she emptied her guts. "I'm fine brother, just feel a little sick". I tell him. I thank him for the help and tell him I'm gonna get cleaned up. "Okay I'll make us something to eat". Spider got to cooking as I  headed for the little bathroom just outside. I washed my face and cleaned my mouth out. I still felt a little nauseous. "Maybe I just need a little rest". I muttered to myself. I head back inside and appreciated the food spider cooked for us. He helped me into bed afterwards. He saw how drained I seemed. "Nora!". I heard my name be called. "Oh my days". I groaned. Aonung walked in and saw me. "Gosh you look terrible, are you okay?". He asked me. "You should see yourself". I snap back and turn the opposite way. "I was actually concerned, what's wrong?". He asked again. This time I was more gentle. "Just a little sick". I tell him. "Do you need anything?". He asked even more concerned. "Yes peace and quiet". I groaned in annoyance at his presence now. "Oh well okay, just let me know if you need anything". He said. He walked out a little worried yet confused at her reactions. Spider had walked over with Neytiri, Jake and Neteyam by his side, to Nora's marui. Spider had fetched them after breakfast, hoping Neytiri would be able to help and Neteyam was just worried for his mate so he tagged along and Jake was worried for her as well.
Once they stepped in and saw her state, Neteyam immediately went to her side. "Ma Nora, you look terrible are you alright my love?". He asked. "Why does everyone keep saying I look terrible". I replied, grunting in annoyance once again. I slammed back down into my hammock lifting the small shawl across my body. Neteyam stood a bit stunned at the reaction. He wasn't sure what to say. He looked to his mother for help and she shook her head at his lost look. Neytiri came over and stroked her heard softly in comfort as Jake came by her side sitting in the hammock and rubbing her arm gently in comfort as well. "What's a matter child". She asked kindly. "I just wanted peace and quiet". I sat up now, tears streaming down my face. "Why am I crying, I'm not even sad". I sobbed out loudly. Neteyam gulped. He was confused on what was happening. Nora has never acted like this. Neytiri had a knowing look on her face as well as Jake. Jake knew what was happening, he went through it with his mate. Four times. "Neteyam why aren't you helping me anymore, do you not love me". I sobbed. Neteyam took a deep breath and came on the other side of her and held her to his chest still very confused on her mood. "Of course I love you Ma Nora". He reassured. He look to his parents for an answer. Jake smiled and laughed at his sons face. Knowing he was going to have to go through what he did now. "I'm sorry". I apologised to him leaning further into him. Neteyam was now really confused and jake couldn't help himself but laugh loudly at his son. "What's funny?". She asked. Jake quickly quiet down and looked to his son. "Boy come with me". He told his son. He looked to Neytiri and pecked her cheek. "I'll let you talk to her, I'll distract him". Neytir nodded, understanding.
I wiped my tears and took a deep breath to calm myself. "Neytiri?". I asked quietly. "Yes child". She wondered still comforting her softly. "What's happening to me?". I asked. She took a deep breath, getting prepared to tell her. "Child, you have been blessed by eywa, you have been given a child, you are pregnant". She said. I froze in shock for a second, rubbing my forehead stressfully. "Mama". The voice of my son from my vision rang through my ears. "I'm pregnant?". I asked her, wanting more confirmation. She nodded and smiled. "I'm pregnant". I said happily. I hugged her tightly and she laughed lightly at my reaction. Happy that I was happy about it. "Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, I need to tell Neteyam". I say, hurrying out of bed. "Child slow down". Neytiri called out to her. Neytiri stood from the door and watched Nora run full speed to her mate and Jake. Jake turned his head when he heard rapid footsteps prowling through. She wrapped an arm around both of them pulling them closely to her. She stood in front of them both. "Im pregnant". She said happily as tears flowed down her eyes. Neteyam was shocked for a second and Jake stood there with smile. "Your pregnant, great mother your pregnant". Neteyam cheered happily picking me up and swinging me in my arms. Once Neteyam placed her down he looked to his father happily. "Dad she's pregnant". He breathed out still shocked. Jake hugged them both and smiled. Jake saw his mate in the distance and the memory of her first telling him that she was pregnant with his son, he was overjoyed. And now here that exact same son was standing right in front of him with a mate of his own who his pregnant. "And you just ran full speed to me, what were you thinking". Neteyam scolded lightly, flicking my forehead with his finger. "It's hardly grown, the baby is fine". I tell him. "I have to tell Ronal and Tonowari and Reya". I rant. "Hey hey mawey, there's a feast happening tonight where people share their stories maybe you can let us all know them". Jake says. "Oh my gosh that's a perfect idea, Jake". I say.

And that led us to here standing in front of everyone around the fire. I took a deep breath and Neteyam squeezed my hand reassuringly. Everyone watched and listened wondering what their story was. "Ma Neteyam and I are proud to announce that I am pregnant". I straightforwardly say. It was quiet at first, everyone was shocked, but suddenly everyone stood up and cheered happily and hissed filled with adrenaline. Ronal came up to me and hugged me. "My child, you have grown into a fine young woman, you will be a great mother". She says. Tears rushing down her face at the news. "My bestfriend is pregnant, I'm going to be an Aunty". Tsireya cheered happily. "I'm proud of you Child". Tonowari says. Aonung comes up to me and gives me hug and dapes up Neteyam. The boys crowded Neteyam. "Yeah get some Neteyam". "Someone's been busy". Comments were thrown at him and they all laughed and joked playfully. I smiled at the sight. "Eywa has blessed you". Kiri says, hugging me tightly. "Come on we have to think about some baby names". Tsireya and our friends dragged me away as Neteyam was still crowded by the boys.
