I was up at 4 in the morning, not bothering to wait for Jake or Grace because of my pure anticipation.
Nothing had been more nerve wracking than trying to fall asleep after finally expressing my love for the man who had always trusted me. So with that fact, I did not sleep a wink.
My avatar was peacefully unconscious in Eyve's arms surrounded by warmth and admiration. To say I was jealous of myself would be an understatement, so I needed to get in there so I could get some of the action.

Although, my sleepless night was primarily focussed on those Memories, what he said to them.
Later on, after our... complicated twister session, he showed me more Memories of him and his brother. I was later allowed to pick one of my own and speak into it.

"Seriously?" I laugh, really laugh and look up at him. My hands were resting on his strong chest and our legs were interlocked as we both look towards the stars.
When I see the biggest smile appear on his face my heart swells and he nods, looking down at me as well.

"Seriously." Eyve's laugh slowly comes to a halt and I sigh contently. "I want to show more to you." He says quietly, not looking at me.
I raise my eyebrows and push my torso up with one arm. There was not one reason I could think of to disagree.
And I didn't want to. I wanted him to open up. Hell, I did when I first met him.

Now that he was, it was like a dream come true. I wasn't going to say anything to spook him.

"Ok." I smile reassuringly at him and he arises, gently pushing me off him and I cross my legs, watching him intently.
When my eyes follow him to a different Memory from earlier, he moves it around and checks it was the correct one. He turns to me and holds a hand out, enticing me forward.

I shoot up a little too fast, springing to my feet to practically sprint over to him. He smiles at me, pulling me down to kneel beside him as he takes my queue.
That was the third time he'd touched me queue tonight, and somehow I still wasn't used to it.
It did funny things to my insides. Not bad things. I'd happily let him to it again. Twice.

He gently connects the nerves to the plant, watching my reaction to whatever was about to come.

I shiver, my ears pinning back and pupils shrinking. I take a few slow breaths as the plants beside this one shuffle slightly, following the pattern of my breathing.
Talk about the forest being connected. I didn't believe that at first, but this was a complete example that it was true.

"Brother, come here." Eyve's brother calls, his voice loud in my ears. It was as though he was here. A wave of playfulness overcomes me and a giddy smiles plants itself onto my lips.
E had his palms over my bond, allowing him to faintly hear what I was hearing. A few squawks sound, most likely stingbats and footsteps approach the plant.

The noises sounded as though they were all around me, a reality I couldn't see. "What? I'm busy." I look over to Eyve who had now looked away from me.
His lips were moving as he mouthed the words slowly. It was obvious he'd replayed this plenty of times.
For what reason I had no idea, but it felt important. The playfulness did not dissipate, if anything it had grown.

A few moments of silence appear before I hear a 'slop' sound and somebody yelling out profanities in Na'vi, probably Eyve.
From how it sounded, he was probably covered in mud.

"Hey, hey! No! Truce!" The boy full on cackles, and I hear a long string of laughs, and smothering sounds,
Okay, so now they were both covered in mud. "What will your future mate think?" He snorts, coughing when some dirt slides down his throat.
My smile grows wider and I realise this was an ongoing joke.
