FIRST DAY OF TRAINING for the Sully kids had arrived. Most of the family were excited for the new day as the previous night wasn't exactly great. They settled in their new home poorly. Not knowing if they had to sleep on the ground or were expected to wait for a bed to come. Not knowing whether the small single hammock was supposed to be shared. The only thing they enjoyed about their night was when they discussed rules upon their family, like:

1. No causing trouble

2. Don't let Lo'ak cause trouble

3. Don't let Lo'ak go anywhere without supervision

If only the Sully kids were able to joke around about it, but the look their father gave clearly meant he was serious.

When the sun had came out and shun through the small holes of the pod, waking up some part of the Sully family. They all awoke and did their morning routine the same as if they were still at home. Still a bit different and trying their best to adapt to their new place.

Aside that, all four kids stepped out of their pod and onto the warm sand. Neteyam, the oldest sibling of the Sully's had walked forward and toward the sea, where the waves met with the sand. He took in the warm aura as he stood in place, his body slowly relaxing. Tuk, the youngest, had replicated him as she stood beside him.

Kiri and Lo'ak, the middle children, had sat next to each other on the sand as they watched the other two do their own thing.

-

"No, you're staying here. I don't want trouble following me around, especially when this is one of my important duties."

Ao'nung was not exactly a morning person, or a people person. It wasn't that he had anxiety, he just didn't like people who were not Leyra. Sure he had a flirty personality, but that didn't mean he went off and flirted with other girls in the village. Ao'nung was the type to stay loyal to his crush, even if Leyra had shown zero interest.

He was also more of someone who liked waking up late and attending to his father's fish market whenever he wanted. But hearing that his longtime crush was going to tutor newcomers, especially those that he referred to as freaks, he thought of himself as a gentleman by waking up earlier than his father and walked to his beloved's marui pod.

This was how Leyra ended up with headaches most of the time. Ao'nung comes along. Questions if he can do this and that with her. She says no. He still goes along with his idea. So now, as Leyra made her way around her pod packing her equipment, Ao'nung followed her. What in Eywa had she done in her life to have a parasite such as him leeching onto her.

"I do not see why having extra help is trouble to you, I'm just there to help you," He reasoned, still following Leyra as she circled the space.

"Knowing you, you will try to court me, like always Ao'nung. Dealing with foreigners and teaching them our way is already stressful."

As she walked toward the dresser of her weapons, he grabbed her wrist, turning her around and softly pushed her backwards. Her back met with matted walls of her marui. His palms resting on her hips.

It was no surprise to Leyra when Ao'nung was touchy. Although, Leyra never once tried being playful as him, always letting him do whatever he wanted. Even after years of being somewhat friends, Leyra never discarded Ao'nung when he was touchy, she knew that he knew his limits. And he also knew she would have his head on the ground if he ever tried placing his hands anywhere else.
