|🌟|Neteyam POV:

- As we finally found a good tree with bananas I felt his hand on my wrist so I turned around and tilted my head slightly, " By the way- I wanted to tell you something " he said, 

" Oh, well go on, " I said, He let go of my wrist and then leaned on some random trunk looking at me, I crossed my arms to my chest, " Yesterday, when I went to talk with Tsireya about you being sick, I found her with your brother, and well- he started to push me and scream. " my eyes widen for a second,

He what?

" What? " Yesterday when I left Aonung's cabin, I went to mine and took a nap, Tsireya came by and asked us if we wanted to hang out, so I explained to her about me being sick, so I didn't go with them, but when Lo'ak and Kiri came back they didn't tell me anything about seeing Aonung, which they usually do, They were a bit worried for me, and Kiri checked my fever but nothing more.

" Well, not without reason, Let's just say a friend of Reya saw us a few days ago... " he looked at me, as his eyes were looking at the ground, and then spoke again seeing my confused face, " on the beach, were i was cutting trees. "

I felt my stomach empty, " She- what, how! " I said a bit panicked, he stood up from the trunk and pulled my wrist down so we could both sit on the sand, I sat down as he patted my knee,

" Don't worry, as well you know what we were doing, her friend thought we were fighting " he said, as I breathed out gladly, Thank Ewya.

" That's good " I mean Kiri did check my fever, but she did it weirdly, by looking at my arms and legs too, I mean I thought it was weird but didn't fuss about it, I think she was looking for wounds,

" Yeah, I mean obviously it's better than what we were doing, but still- your siblings hate me even more now, " he said, which was true, they hated and despised Aonung for everything he has done, even tho he didn't bullied any of us in a long time now, 

" I know, but you were a bit of a big asshole- back in a while, and they're pretty stubborn too " he frowned at me for a bit and sighed, " Yeah I guess... " he said in a sad tone, I didn't like.

" We should get the banans " he spoke again and got up helping me too, " Yeah- "I said.

After we got them we went back to the coconut area where Ela and Ran waited for us, it was pretty late and after we ate it was almost time for the big fire, a bad sign that meant we were going home right now.

Nothing really happened, Ela and Ran told us some gossip they heard and we talked more about how Ax'el got a new girlfriend or something, but Aonung got quiet the whole time, again I tried bringing him into the conversation a few times, but nothing.

As we all got up Ran and Ela got in their ways both I and Aoung went into where his cabin was so he could get a lamp, even tho it wasn't as dark outside, I still wanted the lamp so I could buy some time,

" Are you mad at me? " I asked him as we walked to his cabin, he looked to his side, " Why would I be mad? " he asked me, I sighed and looked anywhere but at him.

" I don't know..." I responded,

" Am I looking mad to you? " he said in a cold tone, not a mad or sad or his usually arrogant tone, or a soft, just an emotionless one, " Yeah- "I sad,

" You're quiet " I continued, He looked away from me, and then at the ground sighing, " I have a lot of things in my mind right now- " he added,

" That's fine, but maybe I can help? what's on your mind, " he looked back at me, as we made eye contact, " I don't wanna talk about it. " he looked away.

I frowned, what the hell was happening? he was fine until we spoke at the orchard, so it was for sure something about that,

" Are you sure? " I asked him again, and he nodded.

I got closer to him and used my hand to grip his wrist turning him to me, as I used my other hand to push his chest to a random cabin wall, and his eyes widened for a second.

" Use your words." I spoke directly as I made eye contact with him, a large tint of red going bright in his cheeks, he breathed out,

" You scared me... " he spoke, I let my hand off his chest as I put it to my chest, crossed.

" Why can't you tell me? " I asked again, he frowned,

"Because I don't want to," he said also crossing his arms to his chest, we weren't that far from his cabin so we had good lighting, I sighed.

" That's not a good reason, " I said again, he pushed my chest slightly as he moved his back from the cabin wall grasping my hand, and pulled me in his place.

" It is, " He said again his palm pressed to my shoulder not too hard to hurt me, I was still frowning at him,

He also frowned, maybe the fact that I was annoying him to tell me what bothering him, that's either because he was never asked to, or that the reason he wouldn't tell me because it had to be something about me, or- us.

As I wanted to speak again we heard a feminine voice from the way his cabin was,

" Aonung! What the hell!? " Tsireya came into view as he immediately backed away and so did I almost falling on the sand, we were both extremely shocked,

" What are you doing! " she spoke again, " We were- " he started,

" Neteyam are you ok! " she came to me and looked at my shoulder, " Yeah- why wouldn't- "

" Lo'ak told you to leave him alone, Aonung! I wanted to believe you weren't fighting with him yesterday, but what the hell are you doing now if you're not fighting! " she said more shocked than mad, i wanted to say something at all, but I didn't know what,

"I wasn't- " he started as Tsireya pushed his chest slightly, his eyes instantly darkening, " Just stop, leave him alone. " she finally said as she placed herself in front of me, 

He just went quiet again, as he stormed off to his cabin, and I again wanted to kiss him before leaving but oh well that's a long-gone wish now, " Are you sure you're ok Neteyam? " she turned to me, and I nodded.

" Yeah- he didn't attack me, he just wanted to talk, I'm serious " I explained, she sighed, " I- he can difficult and violent Neteyam, just- be careful and avoid him, " Tsireya said,

" But he wasn't, he just wanted to tell me something, " I said as she sighed, " Fine- ok, but still just try and be more distant I don't you hurt or Lo'ak worrying about it " she added.

Avoid him? Be distant?...yeah not going to happen,

" Fine, I'll try my best, G'night Tsireya," I said as I turned on the way to my cabin, She waved to me as she went on her way.

Night? for sure, but not a good one.
