Neteyam's thoughts

A'niyas thoughts

─── ∙ ~𓆝 ~ ∙ ───

A'niya gasps for breath as she sits up.

Not again.

A'niya's breathing is shallow and quick her chest tightening every second.

So without a second thought

A'niya quickly gets up and jogs out of the Mauri trying not to think and just go wherever her legs take her.

Darkness floods through the sky as A'niya whistles before diving into the lit up reef.

Parul swims from under the bridge and through the water as A'niya grabs onto him.

The two swim through the reef passing under and over the bioluminescent coral.

As Parul and A'niya race through the water fish swim pass them.

A'niya sticks her hand out running it across the fish's skin causing her to smile.

Next thing she knows the fish is playfully swimming next to A'niya every now and then swimming next to Parul.

The fish suddenly swims back to the others when suddenly she hears a splash above her.

A'niya looks up to see Neteyam on his ilu swimming through the reef the bioluminescent light reflecting on his and the ilus skin.

He's so pretty
Wait - no

A'niya observes him for a few more moments before Neteyam suddenly looks straight at her.

He Had to do a double take before swimming towards her.

'Hi' Neteyam signs earning a soft smile from A'niya.

'Hey Forrest boy' she replies earning an eye roll from Neteyam.

'Wanna have a breathing competition' he questions as he raises the skin of his eyebrows.

I don't wanna make her uncomfortable. I'll ask later

'you sure you wanna do that' Aniya asks with a smirk on her face watching as Neteyam holds eye contact with a matching smirk.
