Obsessed [NeteyamxAonung]

Blinding White - The Artist

Strolling down the beach one morning, the short boy and best friend to the chief's son, Rotxo, comes across the noble boy laying in the sand with his legs in the water.

He sighs at the sight of Aonung in his hopeless moping position.

Rotxo- Aonung, what're you doing?

Aonung- What does it look like I'm doing?

Rotxo- Being the saddest sap I've ever seen.

He sits down next to him, and Aonung sits up, leaning on his hands.

Rotxo- What's got you like this?

With a bit of an angry pout, Aonung turns away from him.

Aonung- Neteyam snapped at me. Said to stop touching him and leave him alone.

Rotxo- In his defense, you-

Aonung- Never know when to stop, yeah, I know.

Rotxo- So, why are you moping then?

Aonung- Because he won't talk to me. He pushed me away.

His concern rises again, and he gives him a worried look.

Rotxo- Aonung, what is he to you?

Aonung- . . .

Rotxo- I swear if you say everything-

Aonung- No, I'm not. He's my muse. Plus, I really, really like him. I just want him to be happy.

Rotxo- And that's why you're doing exactly as he said, and not touching or talking to him.

Aonung- Yes.

Rotxo- Isn't there something else, productive, you could be doing? Instead of just sitting here.

Aonung- Probably.

Rotxo- Why aren't you doing it then?

Aonung- What's the point?

Rotxo groans loudly, and Aonung knows a lecture is coming.

Rotxo- Damn it, Aonung!

It's exactly as Rotxo feared. His best friend has with the boy known as Neteyam, and now his life is starting to revolve around him. What's worse is that the blue boy has no clue that just one little thing he does or says affects Aonung drastically.

Tell the boy to be away from the one he wants to be next to all the time, and there's the risk he'll stop functioning altogether.

Luckily, things haven't gotten that far, but he doesn't want for them to.

Rotxo- I told you to be careful, not latch onto someone.

Aonung- It's not like I did it on purpose.

Rotxo- Well what you can do on purpose is your chores, before you get into trouble.

Aonung- Why should I?

Rotxo- Because if not, your father will be angry with you.

Aonung- I don't give a shit if he's angry.

Rotxo- Aonung, do you hear yourself? After the last time you crossed the line with him, you told me you weren't going to do it anymore.

Aonung- And I'm not, but I just don't wanna be where Neteyam isn't. We only have one chore in common.

Rotxo- Then at least go to that one, Aonung. Please.

Aonung- He doesn't want to see me.

Rotxo- Go to that chore!

Aonung- Alright! Damn.

Rotxo takes a breath, calming down, and still being worried for his friend. He doesn't want to see a repeat of what's happened six times already.
