Little Mr Perfect

slow start

The next day Ao'nung decided to call then both in sick at their school and lets Neteyam sleep in. He opens his laptop and starts doing some research on facilities specialising in treating eating disorders. He remembers the one his sister went to though she didn't need to stay to long as Ronal made sure to get her into a routine again at home. He sits at his desk occasionally looking over at Neteyam with a slightly worried look. He looks up the hospital and saves it on his laptop before looking through a few more, the whole time thinking that he failed him as a friend....partner....he knew the signs to well and yet he missed them all.

Neteyam wakes up around 11 am and Ao'nung let's out a small chuckle " morning sleepy head ". "What time is it?" Neteyam yawns then his eyes go wide as he spots the clock "oooh no nono were way to late !!" . Ao'nung puts both hands on his shoulders, sitting infront of him " Hey easy I called the school that we're not comming in today ". " b-but I can't miss any more days....". " Yes you can Neteyam....you're allowed to take days off when you're not feeling well and even if you're just nit feeling well up there " he says poking his forehead "get that into your thick skull already!". Neteyam wants to protest but shuts that thought down when he sees the look on Ao'nungs face, instead letting out a defeated sigh.
Aonung looks at him with soft eyes " you wanna stay in bed or get up and do something....maybe eat a little?". "For now bed...."He mutters while laying down again, Ao'nung nods and cuddles with him again.

Around lunch time they manage to get their asses out of bed and Ao'nung makes them something to eat "just don't fret it...eat as much as you can don't feel bad for not finishing " He says as he sees Neteyams expression "...not much but atleast a little ok...don't want you fainting on me again". Neteyam hesitates but then nods knowing it makes sense but at the same time there's that feeling of dread again feeling like he doesn't get to eat because he missed school once again, but Ao'nungs word do make him take atleast a few bites, eating a bit isn't to bad it's more or less the problem of not going straight to the bathroom and purge. Ao'nung tries his best not to stare at him knowing that won't really help make Neteyam feel safe enough to just ...well eat, as it might make him feel more forced to do then eat at his pace and well eat at all.

Neteyam managed to eat one third of his plate before feeling full. Ao'nung takes it as a win anyway. "So anything you wanna do?", Ao'nung asks Neteyam who just shakes his head "how about I teach you how to surf?" Neteyam hesitates "hey you can keep your shirt on if that's what you're worried about? Rotxo did the same for a while " he gives his boyfriend a soft smile "or you teach me how to do archery ". The corner of Netyeams lip twitches upwards a little at the thought of that but it dies down quickly as he realises it means they'd have to go over to his home to get the things they need. "Or...not" Ao'nung sighs after seeing Neteyams expression.

"Surfing....sounds fun...." Neteyam eventually confesses after a few moments of silence. "Great!!" Ao'nungs eyes light up in excitement. He lenss Neteyam some swimshorts which are a bit to big on him but they make it work Neteyam does keep his shirt on as they make their may to the shed in their garden. "Oooookay let's find a good pick for ya " Ao'nung skims the rows of surfboards with serious eyes while Neteyam looks around awe. "Are all these yours ?!". "Yeah pretty cool huh! The taller ones are dads the one that's a bit on the smaller side are Reyas, they were moms before that, these two are Rotxos. And Dad and I sometimes work on making our owns....dad made these small ones for me and reya when we were little " he says pointing at two tiny boards Neteyams smile saddens for a sec "that's so nice...." He trails off " My dad helped with my archery a little but it was mostly mom I was close with.....she helped me find the right bow and everything.....the only thing dad really did for me....well more for mom and me was to build those targets....". " Oh " Ao'nung looks at him over his shoulder before grabbing a board holding it up against Neteyam " Yeah that could work" he mutters before letting out a sigh " I'm sorry your family relationship isn't so great but just know that you always have a place here if u need ". " thank you nung "
He chuckles at the nickname " alright now enough of shitty feelings and family drama we're going to have fuuuuun" he gives his boyfriend a quirky smile.

Moments later Neteyam tries to just stand on the board without falling into the water. Eventually he gets the hang of it and Ao'nung is once again reminded how quick of a learner Neteyam really is. Neteyams eyes glow with excitement as he managed to ride a few smaller waves and even letting out a hearty laugh ad Ao'nung wipes out, what he doesn't know is that Ao'nung did it on purpose with exactly that intention. His head pops up out of the water and he gets back on his board making his way to Neteyam rocking his board a bit making it flip towards him sending them both into the water, he takes that moment to pull Neteyam close underwater and just kiss him before their air runs out and they both pop their head back out on the surface, they just look at each other for a moment before Neteyam whispers out a small thank you before kissing him again.
