The special kind of love - Neteyam x Y/n

Part 11

I stay positioned outside their bungalow, Neteyam on the other side of it, with his family. I heard voices, really loudly. My head started pounding. I had trouble breathing. I got hot. I stood up and started walking around a bit, obviously in discomfort.

"(Y/n)?" I hear my mom call, as she runs up to me.

"Mom, Kiri had a seizure. I hear all these voices, I don't know what to do," I breathe, on the verge of tears. I suddenly feel something tug on my hand. I look down and see Etayna tug on my hand. I take a deep breath in, refusing to let him see me as weak.

"'Yana, go back with Kau'i and Tuk," My mom says. I shake my head.

"No, it's alright, come here buddy," I say as I pick him up and put him on my shoulder.

"Is Kiri alright?" My mom asks me.

"She connected to the spirit tree, had a seizure, and is unconscious. Max and Norm are on their way, and to top that all off, Neteyam is mad at me, for a reason I don't know" I said, shaking my head My mom rubs my shoulder.

"Welcome to growing up. I am going to check on Neytiri," She said as she leaves. I follow her and peek into their bungalow, and make eye contact with Neteyam.

I stare at him, not wanting to look away. Every time I see him I fall more and more in love with his face. He stares at me, with sad eyes. Then looks away. I feel my heart drop. I go back to my bungalow with Etayna. Kau'i runs up to me.

"What's happening, where is Lo'ak?" She asks. I look behind her and see Aonung leave. I look at her.

"No way did you bring Aonung in here, what were you even doing?" I asked. I was not in a good mood. I set Etayna down.

"Oh like you didn't mate at my age?" She said, with too much attitude.

"That's different."

"Oh, is it? How?" She said, aggressively.

"I was his mated pair, and I grew up with him. You just met this guy. I don't care what you do. Just no mating. You'll regret it."

"I will do what I want, your not my mom, or should I say my dad?" When those words left my mouth I lost it.

"What the hell Kau'i! What is wrong with you?! I do not need you to be mad at me also. Never ever use Dad's name like that!" I yelled, Etayna crying and running away, tears forming in my eyes. I turn and run away. I run past the Sully's bungalow, seeing Neteyam outside.

I walk up to him and glance in. I see Ronal, attempting to heal Kiri. I look down at Neteyam. He looks really scared. I sit down next to him. Silently.  hear him breathe fast. I just sit there. His breathing eventually slows down. He grabs my hand. My heartbeat speeds up. I hold his. Both of us stared forward, not saying a word. We both know each other is upset, and we are comforting each other in our way.

He squeezes my hand, and he lets go of it after. He moves it to my thigh, caressing it. I glance at him. He is still facing forward, breathing carefully. I see his eyes well up with tears. I feel my eyes do the same. After a long time, he speaks up, his voice shaky.

"Are you ok ma (Y/n)?" He said, his voice so quiet, I could barely hear it. "I love you, you know."

Tears start to fall out of my eyes. A lot of them. Neteyam puts his arm around me, as I lean into his chest. "Yes," I choke out. He kisses my head.

"No, you're not," He says, shushing me. I sob into his chest, and him kissing my head.

"I'll be okay, I have to be. I have to be strong for Etayna and Kau'i. Even though I'm the last person Kau'i looks up to right now." 

"Well, you don't have to be strong for me. What happened with Kau'i?"

"She and Aonung were alone in the bungalow, and I told her not to mate him, and she said how I mated with you when I was her age, and it got messy, and I thought you were mad at me. Not my brightest moment," I said forcing a laugh. Neteyam kissed my cheek.

"Just let her be. She'll never appreciate you. You're in the same boat as me. Lo'ak will never appreciate everything I do for him.

"Well, let's stick together then," I said. He smiled and nodded.

"I'm sorry if I was mad at you earlier. I was just really stressed." I nodded and held his hand again.

Just then Ronal walk's out and looks at us. We stand up and go into the bungalow, and see Kiri crying, Neyitir holding her hand, and Tuk with her. Neteyam runs up, holding my hand.

"Oh, Kiri..." I whisper out, as she cries. I see Ronal walk out, looking tired. I run up to her. "Thank you. You saved her life. Thank you."

Ronal turn to me nods her head and continues to walk away. I smile a bit, as I return.

***********

Later that night we all sit around eating dinner, we are all quiet. Kau'i is on the other side of the room, and I am next to My mom and Etaya. Neteyam is in the middle sort of. Eventually, my mom stands up.

"I'm going to sleep, and I think Lo'ak should stay with us, and (Y/n) should be here. I nodded as I glance at Neteyam, and he has a slight smile on his lips.

We all leave, as I help Neytiri clean up.

I see Neteyam sitting, playing with his hair. I walk over to him and start playing with all his braids. "You will be ok love, I promise. You have me." I said, reassuring him. 

He pulls me down and pulls me into a hug. I hug him back. I glance over and see Jake cuddling Neytiri, which puts a smile on my face. Neteyam pulls me over onto him, and I close my eyes. I kiss his stomach as I drift off to sleep.
