My love ~ Neteyam Sully x oc

28.

Ivä woke up to the warm sun shining on her face and body. She must have been a crazy sleeper because she started off snuggled up against Neteyam, and now she was on the opposite side of the bed, with no covers.

Even though it was warm outside, she still shivered when she felt a breeze come by. She noticed Neteyam was peacefully sleeping, in the same position he started in, with the blanket Ivä kicked on him.

The sun was also glowing off of his body as he laid, sound asleep. Ivä scooted closer to Neteyam, cuddling close to him when she felt another breeze.

She wrapped her arm around his waist, and admired his beautiful face. Eywa. How could she get so Lucky?

She felt him stir in his sleep, and soon open his eyes. He felt warmth on his body, looking down, to see his perfect mate, Ivä. Ivä looked up and smiled at him.

"Hi!" Ivä said in a soft quiet voice.

"Hi, baby." Neteyam quietly said back, closing his eyes again.

"It's cold." Ivä said an squeezing Neteyam a little bit. Neteyam sat up just enough to prop himself on his elbow. He pulled the covers over Ivä, then laid back down. He rubbed Ivä's thigh, warming her up.

"Thanks." Ivä said.

Neteyam hummed in response, closing his eyes again. And because he was so beautiful, Ivä stared at Neteyam some more.

"Quit staring." Neteyam said with his eyes still closed, grinning.

"How could I not?" Ivä asked, tracing his stripes.

"You're really pretty." Ivä said to Neteyam as she kissed his chest.

"Really? Well I think your prettier." Neteyam said smiling, kissing the top of Ivä's head.

Neteyam and Ivä started to laugh.
They loved having moments like these. Where they can hold each other, kiss each other, tell the other that they love them, and tell the other that they're beautiful.

But good times never last, right?

Because soon Neteyam remembers that war is coming. He still needed to tell Ivä. And he desperately didn't want to. Imagine coming to ask for shelter, telling the people you wouldn't bring war here. And what do you do? You brought war here. They are never going to trust the sully family again. Neteyam felt terrible. He felt like the bad buy, coming to tell you that his family did something they told you they wouldn't do.

"Neteyam.. Neteyam are you alright?" Ivä shook him.

Neteyam didn't even realize that he stopped talking and just stared at a random object.

"Hmm? Yes, I'm alright." Neteyam said grinning.

He held Ivä closer, scared that if said what he was about to say, she would leave.

"But I need to tell you something. Something serious." Neteyam said sighing, not wanting to ruin their moment.

"Ok. What is it?" Ivä asked, still cuddled close.

Neteyam took a deep breath before continuing.

"Baby. War is coming. Very soon." Neteyam said quietly, afraid if he spoke to loudly, he would scare her away.

"W- what?" Ivä asked, hoping she heard wrong. She sat up, thinking if she did, she would hear better. She looked down at Neteyam, as he was still laying down, waiting for something to come out of his mouth.

"War is coming." He repeated, this time, a little louder.

"But I thought you said-"

"I know, we didn't think they would find us." Neteyam said, cutting Ivä off.
"Im so sorry." Neteyam apologized.
