Whats so great about him?!

~ Aonung's POV ~
These weird blue creatures have arrived on our land and are asking for safety. I notice the younger one but my gaze softens towards the oldest it seems. He's beautiful, but that's weird and I shouldn't think like that. There tails are so thin. It's weird. "Their tails are so thin! How do you swim?!" I laughed and grabbed the youngest tail. He turned around to hiss at me. "Woah monkey boy chill!" I said smirking as Roxto laughed. The oldest side eyed us. "Whats that look for pretty boy?" "Haha you think I'm pretty?" He looked me in my eyes giggling at me. What the fuck. What is this feeling. Is it embarrassment? Why is he making me feel this way. Their just a bunch of monkeys, and it's weird to feel this way for a boy no? "For a boy yes? Maybe if you were a girl I would like you a bit better" I said high-fiving Roxto. I walked around the older one observing him. His tail moved the whole time. Did he like this attention from me? That's weird.

Tsireya showed the earth Navi's where they would be staying and let them know a lot about us, our ceremonies and culture, to what we would be doing tomorrow. "The oldest seems very interesting" I stated walking with Tsireya.

"If you want me to partner you up with him just say so you weirdo" Tsireya laughed. "I- not like that I don't..like boys" I said looking to the ground unsure. She put her hand on my shoulder. "Mhm sure you do"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The family arrived out at the water where we were waiting for them. "We will practice breathing, not sure if you can breath through the water like we can but we will find out" I said smirking. Me, Tsireya, and Roxto dove into the water. The Navi's kept coming up for air. "What's wrong with them" I signed to Tsireya. We stopped by some rocks out by the surface to wait for them. "Your too fast wait for us" I heard the youngest say. "We don't understand this finger talk you guys, we don't know what your saying" I popped up out the water, and that accent was beautiful. " I will teach you" my sister said her second eyelids look like she was rolling her eyes. "You guys are not good divers, maybe good at swinging through trees but-" Tsireya smacked me on the head. "Come on bro" the second oldest said. He looked annoyed. I looked over to Neteyam, his body was beautiful against the water. But my thoughts were interrupted by Roxto. "Kiri! Where is Kiri?" I snapped out my trance looking to him, "who?" "Kiri- where is she?" "We can find her later for now let's practice already" I said bummed out about doing this in the first place.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We sat on a rock all of us to practice breathing. My younger sister placed her hand on the name Lo'ak's Chest. "Lo'ak you must slow your heart rate" "focus" "sorry". Neteyam and Roxto just laughed but I? Was pissed. I sat beside Neteyam. "Alright monkey boy let's get this over and done with". "Follow your breathing with the sound of the tide" I placed my hand on his abdomen and his eyes shot up. "What's up forest boy?" "Forest boy that's new? Your hands are cold" "Aw I am sorry, do you want my hands to warm you up?" I said teasing him.

~ Neteyam's POV ~
His hands are nice, but why do I think that- what am I even saying I'm thinking nonsense. "You have nice hands" I said getting it out of my mind so it wouldn't wander with me. He moved his hand to my chest. My breathing quickened. "Ah- forest boy slow your heart rate" Aonung smirked and moved his hand to my cheek. I held his hand then removed it slowly putting it on the rock. "That's weird" I slowed down my breathing trying not to think about it so much. "Now we must try ilus-" a ilu?" "You will find out soon enough, yea?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ Aonung's POV ~
I called the ilu with my sounds, they started to swarm the area. "These are ilu, if you want to live here, you have to ride" I brung Neteyam over to one holding it for him to get on. I smiled at him and said jokingly "don't fall off and I'll kiss you" I said laughing at him. "I could try but what makes you think I want to kiss you?" "Hm why would you everyone does" "I am not everyone plus you are.. ehem revolting to look at" He said laughing then hoping on the ilu. "Like you don't think I'm handsome" "never said I didn't fish lips" "fish lips?" "You call me forest boy". Neteyam rode off and ended up getting knocked off. I looked over to Tsireya and Lo'ak who were right beside us. Roxto went to look for kiri, swear that dudes already crushing on her. I looked underwater to see Lo'ak and boy was that a scene. I laughed hard and was laughing when I took my head out back to the surface. I looked towards Tsireya to make sure she saw what I saw. And she was giggling. "Your brother is a funny one" I said helping Neteyam back on again. "He tried to grab my leg earlier in the water when I got back on and ended falling off of his, I didn't even notice him behind me until I looked" Neteyam replied laughing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The way Neteyam rode the ilu was incredible when he finally got the hang of it. "Go monkey boy!" I said cheering him on. He rode back beside me. "So, the kiss?" I froze. "The kiss, you ..want it?" I stated confused. Neteyam just smiled and looked down his braids swinging swiftly around him. He looked  back up at me his smile now smaller and shy. I chuckled nervous myself. I took his hand and kissed it. "A kiss on the hand?" "You never specified where you wanted the kiss-" you never specified where you would give me the kiss" "well if it was up to me I would kiss you on your beautiful blue lips, but I have no taste for boys" "uh huh?" Neteyam said his voice sounding less joyful then before. He just looked back down as if he was thinking about something. "That's weird considering you were thinking about kissing me" Neteyam just laughed nervously. I looked at him confused. "What wrong with you forest boy?" I said walking up to him. He ignored my presence as if I wasn't even there. I turned his whole body to face me and stepped in between his legs putting my hands on either side of the ilu. "Forest boy?" I said tilting my head to him. "I just don't understand how you kissed my hand but don't like boys?" He said leaning in close to my face, also tilting his head at me. "I just have no intention of being with a boy-" mhm, then why give me the kiss?" "I have to marry a girl for in order to be next leader.. so why not do what I want when I can, and one of those things I want to do is you Neteyam" I said laughing, he pushed my chest lightly getting off of the ilu. Our body's inches from each others. "Well I'll see you around fish boy" he said laughing then giving me a pat on the shoulder.
"Neteyam wait." I said awkward about this situation. He walked back up to me and I held his hand. "Maybe I am interested in you?" I said laughing nervously at myself as I sounded like a fool. "You do not like boys though, right?" "That I am still working on." I said scratching my head. "Well whenever you want to admit your feelings I will be around" He said smiling brightly at me.

~ Neteyam's POV ~
I blushed my heart beating fast as I said goodbye. I wish he would've kiss me on my lips.. but that's whatever. The whole time I was trying to play it cool. But I won't get my hopes up, he doesn't like boys.
