Accidentally in love ─ Neteyam x OC !!

The Metkayina's clan area started to be enlightened by the sun, waking up the creatures and some Na'vis.
Tsu'kida woke up a little bit later today, something not very usual in her.
She had had a weird dream last night, something weird because she could never remember what she dreamed about. The only thing she remembered about it was being with a small kid, around nine years old, that was grabbing her hand and running on the beach near her home with her. She didn't get to remember the kid's face or aspect, but she didn't find it familiar to what the kids from the Metkayina clan looked like.

Tsu'kida decided not to waste much time thinking about it, so she grabbed her things and went out, doing her usual daily routine.
She made her way to the beach and called an Ilu, it didn't hesitate giving her permission to ride it, and she quickly got on it and started her seeking for seashells and minerals routine.

Just like every other day, she arrived at the Metcayina's clan main area and got received by the kids, that were more excited than usual. They all filled her with questions and made her seat with them to start their seaweed accesories lesson. The kids listened carefully to every word Tsu'kida said about grabbing the best seaweeds, and shortly after they went into the water to grab some and start.

After some hours of failing and repeating, the kids were able to make some really cute accesories. The noise they were making attracted some glances from the other clan members that were around, and also from the strangers that just arrived. Tsu'kida saw the youngest of them really wanted to go with them and learn whatever they were doing, and she found that really cute, although their older brothers didn't let her and told her to stay with them.
The Metkayina felt bad for her, so she quickly grabbed some seaweed that had been left from the kid's accesories and started making one for that kid. She made her a small bracelet with tiny seashells hanging from it.

When the kid got left a bit behind, Tsu'kida whispered loudly enough for the kid to hear her, and told her to come for a second.

─ I saw you wanted to join us earlier, I know your brothers didn't let you come, so I made you a bracelet instead ─ Tsu'kida softly spoke to the kid, unkowing she had gained some looks from the group of teenagers again.

─ Thank you it's really pretty! Did you grab these seashells around here? ─ the kid asked, sounding really excited.

─ Yeah! I got these in the morning around this beach, maybe I can show you where to get some someday.

─ Yes please! I really like them! ─ the kid's tail was moving side to side due to her excitement. That made Tsu'kida remember about that boy that looked at her the day before, they actually looked much alike.

Tau'kida fastly looked the way the kid's brothers were, noticing they were staring at her, with protective looks in their eyes, judging her from the distance. She felt they were just worried about their sister, but when she focused on the boy that looked at her yesterday, he had a strange look in his eyes, a look Tsu'kida couldn't get to figure out. She returned to the kid standing before her and lowered herself to be the same height as her.

─ You can just look for me any day and i'll be more than glad to show you! ─ Tsu'kida gave her a smile and quickly messed the kid's hair ─ By the way, I'm Tsu'kida, what's your name?

─ I'm Tuktirey, but everyone calls me Tuk, nice to meet you Tsu'kida! ─ the kid smiled in a really cute way, making the Metkayina smile again.

─ Well Tuk, I hope you can join me and the rest of the kids soon, but you should go for now, your brothers seem to be waiting for you.

─ See you around then Tsu'kida!

And with that, Tsu'kida's mission was complete. She wanted to make all of the kids feel welcomed, and specially Tuk since she had just arrived to the clan.

Tsu'kida looked at Tuk while she was running back to her brothers and looked again at the boy, seeing he was also looking at her again. She gave him a small smile, and did the gesture that is used to greet others with her hand. The boy did the same, but adding that movement from his tail which made him look really cute.
Seconds after she saw him get hit by his brother in a funny way and then start a little fight between them, making her cover her mouth trying to hide her laugh.

The Metkayina decided to go back with the rest of the kids and then asked them if they wanted to go and look for seashells with her. The kids fastly agreed to that and started running into the water, two of them grabbing Tsu'kida's hands.

The kids stayed near to the beach since their parents didn't want them going too far for their security, but Tsu'kida decided to leave them for a bit since nothing would happen to them.
She swam further and further, getting to a deep part of the beach. She went to the bottom and looked for seashells there, where the prettiest ones were.

Some minutes after Tsu'kida felt the presence of someone else. She looked everywhere, and finally found one of the recently arrived Na'vis. The Omaticaya looked amazed by all of the plants and creatures that were there and was interacting with some of them. Tsu'kida didn't want to ruin the moment, so she hid behind some plants and kept looking at the Omatikaya.

Shortly after the girl went up, meeting in the upper part with her brothers since they had been looking for her. The Metkayina quickly grabbed some seashells that were next to her, and made her way up. She didn't want to get near the teenagers, so she kept herself under the water until she was away from them, meeting again with the kids that were already waiting for her. She gained again the look of that Omaticaya boy, but didn't notice until she turned back when she was with the kids.

Tsu'kida and the kids went outside of the water, seating again in the same place than earlier, and showing each other the seashells they had found in the time they were apart.

Not many time passed, and the sun started to go down. Tsu'kida couldn't believe the day was already getting to its end, she didn't do much today and felt like just some hours had passed.
She got up and said goodbye to the kids. They didn't ask her to stay longer, since they already knew she couldn't.

Tsu'kida did the same she did every day. She got some fruits and fresh fish and went back to her tent, spent some time there with the Ilus and fed them, and finally went to sleep.
