THE NEXT MORNING NAILEA WAS up bright and early, excited to get her training with Aonung started. She had even picked her outfit out the night before when her father had informed her that Aonung would now be her teacher for the rest of her lessons. She was ecstatic to be around the boy more.
The Sully family was shocked to see Nailea up and ready so early, they were even more shocked to see that she was happy to be awake. Nailea was known to be a grumpy riser she had always been that way, Neytiri blamed it on her spending so much time with the humans whom she claimed were lazy.
"What are we learning today?" Nailea asked her twin as she took a bit out of the food Neytiri had made for breakfast.
"I believe they're teaching us how to breath." Neteyam responded as he too ate his food.
"That's stupid, I mean we breath already all the time. What's there to teach?" Lo'ak complained earning an eye roll from Kiri.
"Skxwang, they're going to teach us to hold our breath under water so we don't have to be coming up for air every two seconds like you were doing yesterday." Kiri sassed making Lo'ak stick his tongue out at her.
"Was Aonung nice to you yesterday?" Neteyam asked Nailea, starting their own conversation since Kiri and Lo'ak were too busy arguing. He also just wanted to make sure Aonung, or anyone else for that matter, was giving his sister a hard time.
"Yes" The girl nodded with a coy smile "He was very nice"
"I heard he'll be your teacher for the rest of our lessons." Neteyam asked also smiling back to his sister since he knew these circumstances made her happy.
"Mhm" Nailea nodded her head "He just helps me learn things better."

Aonung walked, more like trudged, to his girlfriends mauri pod. He wanted to tell Koa about Nailea, about how she had kissed his cheek the day before during training. He also wanted to let her know that he was being forced to be her mentor for the time being, he was telling Koa because he didn't want her to think anything wrong of it. He wanted to be the one to tell her before anyone else could.
As Aonung approached the hut he could see his girlfriend struggling to weave a seashell bracelet, he chuckled softly at the sight. When Koa saw him approaching she instantly blushed and placed her bracelet, or attempt of a bracelet, down.
"Good morning pretty girl." Aonung greeted as he knelt by her and kissed her cheek.
"Hi Nung." Koa smiled, they were cute together no one could deny that. Aonung was this big intimidating popular guy while Koa was a shy, reserved, and quiet person. Why they worked was a mystery, what wasn't a mystery though was the amount of times Aonung had failed the woman he loved.
It was known amongst the young ones of the clan that Aonung had cheated on Koa a handful of times. Everyone knew except for poor Koa. Aonung felt guilty every time he cheated but he made himself feel better by thinking that it was some how Koa's fault. Koa wasn't ready to give Aonung what he needed, so in order not to force her to do something that she didn't want to do, he'd cheat. It seemed like everyone won that way. Aonung still felt that he really loved Koa though because when it wasn't about sex, Koa made him want to be better, she made him extremely happy as well.
