Aneysa grunts as she slaps the alarm clock next to hers and Neteyam's bed.

"Shut up!" She shouts as her head is buried in the pillows, after feeling tired and completely out of it.

"We're going out today. Remember?" Neteyam calls out.

She opens her eyes and looks up at him.

"Right" she says awkwardly, sitting up.

The two of them not saying a word to each other afterwards.

They had gotten into an argument.

The day before.

"We're going to be late Aneysa, come on" Neteyam calls out.

"I'm coming" Aneysa says as she makes her way downstairs.

She was wearing the white dress, along with the white heels that Neteyam had bought for her. She had styled her hair in loose curls, and accessorised the dress with a Rhinestone Decor Faux Pearl Beaded Necklace, along with pearl earrings, that had come as a set.

She wore a Van Cleef bracelet, which was gifted by Neteyam himself.

"You look like the bride" Lo'ak mutters.

"This is not something I'd wear to my wedding. I'd want a gown for my wedding" Aneysa replies, making it very clear that she heard him.

"You look beautiful now and you will look even more beautiful when you become my bride" Neteyam says.

Aneysa smiled at him.

"Get a room" Lo'ak sighs, "I'll go wait in the car."

He walks out the door.

"He's just mad that Reya could not come" Aneysa says as she reaches the bottom of the stairs.

"I must try my best to stay focus but you're making it incredibly hard, you are" Neteyam whispers as he looks down at her.

Aneysa bites her bottom lip, "maybe once we get home, we can finish where we left off."

"Maybe we will" Neteyam replies, his arm now around her waist.

But both, Neteyam and Aneysa, move away from each other, as they hear someone clear their throat.

There stood Mo'at.

"Neteyam. Aneysa" she calls out.

Aneysa smiled at her.

"I need to speak with Aneysa" Mo'at says and then looks to Neteyam, "alone."

Aneysa stood awkwardly, not knowing what to do.

"I'll wait in the car" he gives a kiss to Aneysa before walking out.

Aneysa watches him walk out, before turning to look at Mo'at.

"What is it you wish to talk about?" Aneysa asks.

"You are leading him astray" Mo'at says.

"Im sorry?" Aneysa was confused as to where this was coming from.

"Going to a wedding wearing white? That is disrespectful. And you are leading him to become disrespectful too" Mo'at says.

"You have got it all wrong, I have not. This was his choice, for me to go to this wedding. To wear white" Aneysa says. 

"I know about your family background and I have done my research. You make him very happy, however, I do not wish for him to have a life where he becomes.. violent. So please, do not lead him that way" Mo'at says.
