A few weeks later.

"Are you sure you don't mind, mother?" Neytiri asks Mo'at, not wanting to force her kids onto her mother.

"Yes, I can handle looking after your four. Now go... your mate is impatient." Mo'at says, smiling at the younger Sullys and glancing at Jake.

To say Jake is impatient would be an understatement. He had waited for this day for sometime now, and the last thing he was going to do was wait for longer. Still, he keeps his mouth shut, waiting for Neytiri to be ready as he shifts on his feet, trying and failing to hide his excitement.

"We'll be good, I promise." Neteyam tells Neytiri.

Neytiri raises an eyebrow, knowing her firstborn can't promise anything about Lo'ak.

"Just.. behave and be safe. That's all I ask." Neytiri says softly and smiles at her four kids.

"Neteyam, you're in charge of making sure they don't get out of order for your grandmother and make sure they go to bed on time." Jake says as he comes over.

"Why doesn't he have a bedtime?" Lo'ak protests.

"Because Neteyam's older and life's unfair." Kiri says simply.

"Have fun!" Tuk says excitedly to their parents, ignoring her older siblings' discussion.

Mo'at, Neteyam, Kiri, Lo'ak and Tuk watch as Neytiri and Jake go for their date, once the duo are out of sight the others go inside to have dinner.

Mä'zu sighs as she sits in her home... alone. She looks around the home, still not quite used to being alone.

Mä'zu purses her lips and walks around and sighs, wondering what she could do to keep herself occupied...

'Cleaning?' Mä'zu thinks to herself.

"Yeah, let's do that that." Mä'zu says aloud.

Once done with cleaning, Mä'zu sighs as she's still so bored so she decides to reorganise things, putting them in more suitable places and making sure that everything is well cared for.

An Atokirina floats in through the hole in the side of the hut which Louise calls a 'window.'

Mä'zu smiles softly and watches as it floats over to her, to which she holds her hand out and the Atokirina rests on her upturned hand.

"Hello." Mä'zu says softly.

The Atokirina floats gently along Mä'zu's arm towards her face, gently brushing against her cheek.

"You are sweet." Mä'zu smiles tenderly at the intelligent Atokirina.

'Happiness is simple. Like date night. Time away from the kids.' Jake thinks to himself as he watches Neytiri ride her Ikran around the Hallelujah mountains, looking so at peace as she flies with her new Ikran.

Neytiri yips and Jake smiles, urging Bob to follow her.

Neytiri hears Jake behind her and looks back with a bright smile. She chuckles and starts trying to fly in circles, laughing heartily as she does. She grins over her shoulder at him while doing so.

Jake perks up, before he grins and lowers himself closer to Bob and following after his beloved while they loop around some of the structures, including a waterfall.

Their Ikrans hover in front of each other before they dive and go on the same floating mountain they were on after their first flight together.

Once they land and dismount their Ikrans, Neytiri tends to her Ikran's saddle while Jake walks up to her, smiling when he sees her tail near him.
