DISTANCE ; LO'AK X MALE OC

017

Neteyam and I swam around, we've spent all day together. I noticed that I'm warming up to him, weird.

It was time for dinner by the time we've got back to the village, it was already dark. "Bro, we've been looking for you everywhere" Lo'ak shouted, He was with Tsi'reya, Rotxo and Kiri "you two are holding hands awe" I immediately let go of Neteyam "What are we having for dinner?" "Fish.." "Ugh, again? We had that for two weeks in a row"

We walked where everyone else was, "Son, come" my father called out for me, I waved goodbye to the others "Yes, father?" I stood above him " Where were you?" "I was out with the oldest son of Toruk Makto, I swear on eywa I wasn't causing trouble" "Hey!" I looked on my right and my mother hissed at me "No swearing on great mother" I rolled my eyes " Alright go on" I smiled and left.

I sat between Lo'ak and Neteyam, Neteyam and I played around with eachother. I could see Lo'ak staring at me, he knows that my "love" for Neteyam isn't real..he probably despises me for it, but who cares now I guess.

"We should do what we did again tomorrow" I nodded my head in agreement "I'm gonna go get more food, want some?" I shooked my head no.

Neteyam then left to get more, it was now just Lo'ak and I. It was really awkward "Hey" "Hi" I smiled when he responded, I played with my fingers waiting for him to speak he's probably not going to.. "How was your day?" "Good you?".

"It was alright..kinda boring, I was actually by myself today the others were like out somewhere...and" he put his down "And..?" I moved closer to him "And I wanted to hangout with you but you were having a good time with Neteyam and we aren't good terms" Oh, i shrugged my shoulders.

"I'm sorry for calling you a bitch or whatever it wasn't cool of me to say.." I giggled "it's fine Lo'ak, I've heard worse said about me"

he smiled "Friends..? Again..?" I nodded my head and we shook hands. He gave me a piece of his food, and I kindly accepted it. It felt nice to be talking to him again
