𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐎𝐅 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 | neteyam x oc

37.

I was riding my Ilu with Tsireya. It was quite calm, she walk talking about Lo'ak as I was admiring the fishes swimming next to us.

"I can't believe he still haven't kissed me." She says.

I roll my eyes and turn to her as I meet her gaze, and she already knows what I am about to say.

"This is forbidden Reya." I say.

I was saying that as if I wasn't dating Neteyam. I just don't want her to make the same mistakes as me. Because I think I still don't realize we are making such a big mistake. But I didn't really care, I just want to ignore it and enjoy my life with Neteyam.

"I know..." She grumbles as she sighs in annoyance.

I look at her in a sad way. I could tell she really liked Lo'ak, and Lo'ak really liked her too. It's the way they look at each other, the way Lo'ak treats her. They're like soulmates. And I know how she must be feeling. She knows she is doing something that is prohibited but love is so intense, it makes you break all of your walls and rules.

I couldn't stop thinking of what happened last night, Neteyam and I, his fingers, his words, his lips, his heavy breathing. Everything was so perfect and I wanted to do that again because what he made me feel was insane. And only him can make me feel this way. I can't even find the words to describe how amazing it was.

"By the way, you still remember right? Girls night tonight!" She says.

Oh. I forgot. Girls night is something Reya and I are doing every year at the seventh full moon of the year. We usually just hang out the two of us, we talk, eat, and sing together. I love these nights with her because they are always so comforting and I feel like this is what I need right now, I just need to hang out with my friends to forget about everything.

I smile at her, and nod positively. Well, I actually forgot, but now that she reminded me, I am sure I won't forget about it until tonight. As we are riding our Ilus near the reef, I suddenly see a very familiar silhouette swimming over us. I recognize Neteyam, I immediately smile. Reya waves at him as he gets closer to us.

"Hello blueberry." Reya says with a smile.

Neteyam giggles as he handshakes her, I like the fact that they are getting along with each other. It's so relieving to know that the most important persons in my life are getting along very well. Neteyam swims over me, I smile and look up at him.

"Hi... I say.

- Hey." He grins.

I suddenly hear Reya clearing her throat, Neteyam turns around and look at her. She raises her eyebrows and speaks up.

"I have to go, uh... My mom needs me." She tries to find an excuse.

I raise my eyebrows before nodding, she waves at us and dives in the water with her Ilu, leaving me and Neteyam alone in the middle of the ocean.

"She still doesn't know?" He asks surprised.

Of course Tsireya still doesn't know. There is a lot of things she doesn't know. It's not that I don't trust her, it's just that I am not ready to talk about some things with her.

"Of course not. This girl can't keep her tongue in her mouth, she'll accidentally snitch on us." I giggle.

And I know this is something she would definitely do. She is so clumsy, that's why I love her. Because she sometimes tells me things I am not supposed to know, and it's funny to watch her begging me to act like she didn't say anything.

"Well, I allow you to say it to two people." He whispers as he gets closer.

I raise my eyebrows and tilt my head to the side, teasing him. I squint my eyes and lick my lips before speaking up.
