no need to get violent


"Hold her head!"

"Dad, I- i want to go home"

"No, no, no! Not my daughter!"

Gasping her eyes open taking in the air before her, feeling her chest move at a rapid pace. Nothing has been the same not like it was before, it's been a week since Amiryat woke up from her coma and the nightmares didn't stop, sometimes she would wake up to the pain on her chest constantly reminding her what was the cause of that scar.

No one had known about the nightmare constantly taunting her in the middle of her sleep, Neteyam had woken up a few time feeling his older sister twitching in her sleep, so he did the thing he knew would help, he hugged her to his chest, rubbing her back and arm and he didn't sleep until she was asleep.

Amiryat slowly sat up reaching with shaky hands to her chest, glazing her petty fingers over the wound, she found herself doing that even the smallest noises made her flinch and she absolutely hated it, it made her feel weak and like a baby, something she didn't enjoy, her parents worried for her, Norm hadn't informed them about the terror of their daughter having disturbing nightmares.

Amriyat begged the human not to say a word to either of them, though the man hesitated for a moment but he understood where she was coming from, so he didn't say anything. The ritual Ronal did on her worked, she didn't feel any pain in her arm or chest, though her ritual didn't keep the nightmares away.

The second she got up from the hammock she quietly stepped out the home down the ledge sinking her feet into the water, staring down at the glowing fishes swimming around her feet, Jake grumbled rolling over in his hammock, slowly opening his eyes until they widen at the empty side beside Neteyam.

He jerked his head up, heart racing until he caught the flap to their home moving, he knew about the nightmares and he wanted to help but she completely shuts him out, denying that she wasn't having any, it worried him that she wanted to go through it all alone, he gently removed Neytiri' head from his chest and he climb out the hammock before he stepped outside the home.

"Babygirl?" Jake soft voice made her look up from the puddle of fishes, of course she wanted his help she will always want her family's help but she never knew how to approach them. Jake came closer slumming down by her sinking his feet by hers. "Was it a nightmare?" She didn't answer. "You know you can come to me whenever, even if it's in the middle of the night, it doesn't matter,"

Jake paused sighing. "Babygirl, you can come to me, okay? You gotta talk to me baby, it's okay to be scared I understand that." Jake says wishing he could read her mind and know what she was thinking. Amiryat exhaled picking at her fingers. She moved closer to her father and he instantly wrapped his arms around her.
