Neteyam had been sick recently and I was starting to get worried. "Here drink this," I said offering him a drink that Neytiri and I made for him. "You know you're really lucky your mum remembers stuff from when she was a Tshaki in training" I teased as I watched the frail boy take his drink. Neteyam nodded as he sat up chugging the liquid "Thanks mum" Neteyam yelled with all his strength "No problem Neteyam" Neytiri responded. I sat with him as he talked about everything in his very boring bed life. "I made friends with a little bug under my bed," Neteyam said in his croaky voice. I laughed at the boy as he continued to tell me stories about his friend Bert the beetle. Eventually, I had to go to attend to my duties "I'll be back to Ma' Teyam" I said as I kissed his forehead "Ok I'll see you later love" He said waving to me. "Goodbye, everyone!" I said as I walked out of the Mauri. I had dance practice with Tsireya and then I had to feed the Ilus, I ran to the beach where we all planned on meeting, and by we I mean me, Tsireya, and a couple of her friends.  I waltzed over to the group seeing they had already started. "Sorry, I'm late everybody" They all flashed me smiles and forgave me. Soon we started stretching and practicing our dance for the festival tomorrow. 

We all picked up on the dance pretty quickly, and soon we were all dancing to perfection. The waves were our music, we just swayed along. "Alright, good job everybody," Fi'rae said her smile brighter than the sun. "Everyone take a break to cool off" She continued, as I was about to walk off I heard my name being called and of course, it was Tsireya "Y/N I heard about Neteyam is he alright?" She asked concern all over her face "Yea he's alright he just has a little cold" I said but this 'little cold' had lasted a week now and the medicine isn't working. "Oh ok well is it ok if I come to visit Lo'ak he hasn't been talking to me recently," Tsireya said slight disappointment in her voice, "He's been going out to Payakan recently," I said. A couple of weeks ago we found out that a Tulkun had saved Lo'aks life from an Akula, we also found out that the Tulkun was  Payakan. "He's been on edge lately I think he'd enjoy a visit from you," I said happily. We walked to The Sully's home as I dropped off Tsireya. "I'll be back soon I've just got to feed the Ilus," I said to Tsireya. When I walked away I heard Lo'ak call out to Tsireya, he sounded happy for the first time in a while. 

I grabbed the fish from the dock and then hopped into the water, I called the Ilu dangling a fish into the air. The fish must have caught their noses because they all flooded in awaiting the food. "Where is my favorite boy huh" I said as I looked for my Ilu Filën. "There he is," I said as I scratched his head watching him circle me, I tossed the fish up in the air and I watched as he caught it. I giggled at his little stunt, he always managed to make me smile. He and Aonora have always been close. Sometimes I think  Aonora is more excited to see Filën than me. I quickly fed the other Ilu before I headed back to the Sully's. "I'm home," I said I walked in noticing only Neteyam was home. "Everyone went to go riding and mum and dad went out on their Ikran," He said as he sat up to face me, "Oh cool," I said as I walked over to his bed and quickly slid into the sheets. "No Y/N you're all cold" Neteyam whined as he scooched away from me "Yeah and your warm so come here," I said grabbing him and pulling him closer, I laid my head on his chest, I placed my head so that I could look up at him. "How was Practice huh," Neteyam said his eyes looking right into mine. "It was fun I can't wait for you to see the dance," I said excitedly. we laid in silence for a little before we heard giggles. It was Lo'ak and Tsireya, they kept mumbling about something but we couldn't here. "Are you sure he's asleep?" once I heard my sister say that I shot up, "No absolutely not separate right now" I said storming over to the two, I watched as their jaws dropped, faces flushed with a light shade of pink. I stood in between the couple separating them "Oh shit Y/N when did you get back" Lo'ak said as he put his hands up like I was about to skin him "I've been home long enough" I said glaring at the boy as I whacked him with my tail. "OW what was that for" the boy squealed as he backed away, "That was for almost kissing my sister in front of me" I held my head high as I ushered the two out of the house, "Do your weird shit somewhere else" I mentally gagged at the thought of them kissing, "Alright alright," Lo'ak said as he grabbed Tsireya's hand as they trailed off. I watched the young lovers walk off together, "Gross" I muttered to myself as I rolled my eyes "It's not like we're any better Y/N" I heard Neteyam say, I turned to face the boy as I brushed off his comment. "I think it's just a Sully thing Tey," I said as I crawled back into bed "you're probably right" He breathed out as he laughed, "I'm so tired from practice" I whined as I shuffled around trying to get comfortable again "aww you poor thing," he said as he rubbed my arm with his big hands, he lightly kissed my forehead "yes I am very poor and I'm going to take a nap now," I said as I buried my head into the crook of his neck

I woke up to yet another nightmare about Neteyam It's been the same one for 4 days now. The same scene of him lying on that rock dying, 'is Eywa trying to show me something?' my thoughts were interupted by big amber eyes looking into mine "you had it again huh?" Neteyam whispered as he squeezed my hand. I hummed in response as I cuddled up to him again trying not to think about it too much "I don't know why it keeps happening" I said as tears started forming in my eyes. "Oh love don't cry," He said as he hugged me tight, we stayed like that for a little while longer before everyone came back. "Y/N what's wrong?" Tuk asked as she came up to hug me "It's nothing Tuk don't worry about me ok" I said with a smile on my face "Ok!" Tuk said as she quickly ran off to the rest of the family. "You wanna go down or stay up here," Neteyam asked as his hand laid on my cheek "I wanna go down" I whispered as I made my way off the bed, I helped Neteyam up since he was still a little wobbly and we made our way down to the main area.
