Starboy - Lo'ak Sully

011

Aria was pissed.

Why was the usually happy, yet sarcastic girl pissed? Because of Harry Stark.

He made her flustered, confused, not in control. When Aria wasn't in control of a situation, especially considering her own feelings, she got pissed. And that made her wanna punch someone.

Harry was with Neteyam, Spider and Kiri today, so Aria had the day off. Which was just perfect for the girl to gather herself.

She found Lo'ak with Jake and the rest of the Jake's second in command, including Norm and Max.

Lo'ak's back was to Aria, so taking advantage of his positioning, she punches him in the arm, hard.

"What the hell, bro." Lo'ak whisper shouts and Aria grins at him.

Before Aria can answer, she hears her name being spoken.

"Aria." It was Jake. Everyone's eyes turned to look at the tiny human girl.

Aria brought her hands to her arms, rubbing them up and down. She hated social situations and now, everyone's eyes on her felt weird.

"Hey." She says, meekly, as Lo'ak grabs one of her hands, rubbing his thumb on it to calm her down. She squeezes it, appreciated by the action.

"Tell us what you think of and saw with Harry." Norm says and Jake nods approvingly.

Hand still attached to Lo'ak's, she steps forward and begins speaking, "Um, there's really not much to say. He doesn't seem like a threat, like at all. He's actually pretty skinny and lanky, I don't think he could do much harm. But, uh there's been no progression in his memories either. He doesn't remember anything other than what he told all of us."

"Thank you, Aria." Norm thanks and Aria nods, raising her eyebrows.

"No problem." And with that, she and Lo'ak took off running into the forest, passing by Harry who had a confused look on his face.

Snorting and laughing, they reach a clearing in the forest, where the bright Pandoran sun was shining through, the leaves of the trees unable to stop the shine.

Panting, Aria smirks up at Lo'ak.

"Why'd we run here?" She asks and Lo'ak shrugs.

"I was following you." He states, cocking a brow.

"Don't do that, your eyebrows are practically non-existent." Aria swallows and Lo'ak rolls his eyes. Aria breathes out a soft laugh as Lo'ak makes an "oh" sound.

Now Aria cocks her brow, turning to her blue buddy.

"What's up Blueberry Muffin?" She questions and Lo'ak takes off a bracelet she hadn't even noticed.

"I made this for you." Lo'ak says, handing Aria the bracelet. Aria takes it, tenderly, and studies it.

It was quite ugly, with random colours mashed together such as purples and oranges. The bead work sucked as well.

Hands on his hips, Lo'ak says proudly, "I made it all by myself."

"It's uh... I love it." Aria grins, Lo'ak's smile widening. He takes it back in his hands and ties it around Aria's wrist.

He pulls up his wrist as well. "I made on for myself as well."

"Friendship bracelets." Aria states and Lo'ak nods. "I love it Lo."

Lo'ak shoots her a devilish smile and she returns the favour.
