A/N: This is kind of a sequel to my very first jaya oneshot 😮
Nya is floating on cloud nine, well more like skating. She just had the most wonderful roller skating date with Jay. She still can't believe he was able to break down her mental barrier and get her skating. He was right, she needed to let go and stop thinking.
She hums happily to herself and dances around the Destiny's Bounty just as her brother enters the room. He's still a bit moody from having to watch Jay and Skylor skate circles around him.
"What are you doing? You're not even drunk," Kai asks his sister.
"Just thinking," she says as she glides around the bunk beds, not even phased that Kai accused her of being drinking. Drunk on love is more like it.
"I can see that, but you're not usually so giddy when you're thinking," he tells her.
"I was just thinking how lucky I am to have a guy like Jay," she sighs happily.
Kai scrunches his nose and his eyes narrow. "Ugh. To much information Nya, TMI."
She just giggles and skates around the room some more.
"How can I ever repay him?"
"By not telling me details," Kai groans.
"But I want to do something special," she tells him.
Kai sits up on his bed and thinks for a moment.
"How about you make him something? Something he can use. I can help you if you want to smith him a new knife or something. Guys always like new knives and swords, like how girls always want new shoes and purses," Kai offers.
"That's not a bad idea," Nya says thoughtfully, poking at her chin. "And hey, I do not hoard shoes and purses like you do with weapons!"
"Sure you don't," Kai manages to say as he ducks a pillow aimed for his head.
Nya continues to dance around the room, now plotting out in her mind what she wants to make Jay. Her brother shakes his head. He knows this is going to end up being a big project.
"So, do I need to start getting the forge ready?" Kai asks.
"Yes!" Nya replies gleefully. "Thanks, brother."
Kai shakes his head and goes to get some sleep. "Good night, little sis. Try not to break the Bounty while you're practicing."
"Night, Kai," she tells him as she continues to hum and dance around the ship.
She twirls and pliés, until she spins right into her significant other.
"Oooff," Jay groans as he falls backward from the impact. "Are you practicing Spinjitzu or something?"
Nya grabs his hand and pulls him up, steadying him.
"Nope, I was just having fun. I can't believe I am saying this but I want to go back to the skating rink."
"Really? Are you sure you aren't secretly working for Lord Garmadon and planning to use those skates as weapons against the ninja?"
"Very funny, Jay," she says, punching him in the arm.
He laughs and grabs her hand, pulling her to the center of the room.
"So what were you doing that had you so enthralled?"
"I was dancing."
"Dancing?" Jay questions, arching an eyebrow.
"Well, a little," Nya says, looking away, suddenly feeling self-conscience under his gaze.
"A little, huh?" Jay chuckles. "Okay, then I have the perfect song for you to dance to."
He presses play on his phone and a slow pop song begins. Nya looks up and is surprised by how romantic the music is.
"Dance with me," Jay whispers in her ear.
"You aren't going to shock me like last time, are you?"
"Of course not," Jay answers, giving her a mock pout.
Nya places her hand on his shoulder and he wraps his arms around her, guiding her towards the center of the deck.
"You were really good at skating tonight," she tells him.
"Thanks," Jay blushes.
"Do you think you can teach me how to dance like that?"
"Eventually. You still need a few more roller skating lessons," he tells her. "Just not tonight," he says, stifling a yawn.
Nya leans into him and closes her eyes. Jay holds her close as he slowly guides her around the deck, humming along with the melody. The moonlight shines bright as the stars twinkle in beat with the song. She can feel his elemental power thrum under his skin, encouraging her own to hum with the melody.
When the song ends, Nya looks up at him and gives him a gentle kiss on the lips.
"Thanks, I needed this," she whispers, giving him a sleepy smile.
Jay smiles back at her and kisses her on the forehead.
"Anything for you, my queen," he tells her as he leads her to the sleeping quarters.
"You will be my king one day," she whispers sleepily.
"And you'll be the queen of my heart," Jay tells her.
"Aww," Nya smiles, and gives him a quick peck on the lips.
"Good night, Jay."
"Good night, Nya."
As he watches her disappear into the room, he wonders what the future has in store for them. Whatever it is, they are ready for it.
