Chapter Two
It was only moments later, after I'd finished that sentence that I realized Yawne was giggling at what I'd just said. She was smiling now, and she looked happy, which confused me even more.
"You know… That actually kind of sweet La'Ki… In a weird sort of way…" Laughing, Yawne grasped my hand and pulled me into the bushes away from the watchful eyes of the others.
Both Yawne and La'Ki were huddled together, away from the watching eyes of the other tribe members, both smiling as they hugged. This time, Yawne kissed La'Ki, her lips gently pressing up against La'ki's, this time with much more passion. Yawne gently licked La'Ki's lip, and pulled back.
"You do know we can't tell anyone about anything that's happened today."
It was now that realization came crashing down for La'Ki, she couldn't tell anyone else about her feelings. The only person she could actually trust right now was Yawne… But then again, originally she thought the same about her mother. Yawne was only thirteen when she started having feelings toward other members of the same sex; the discussion about it didn't go over too well.
*Flashback*
Matriarch Yeha paced back and forward inside the hut, listening to the words coming from her daughter's mouth.
"I can't help that I like –"
Slap. The sound of the slap echoed throughout the hut, followed by a sharp cry.
"You will listen to me young one, you the will never, ever act on this. You will perform Tsaheylu upon the watchful eyes of Eywa, and you will become Matriarch of this tribe. Do you understand?"
La'Ki's soft whimpers died down, to nervous tremors. She nodded to her mother, although the pain she felt inside was almost unbearable.
*End flashback*
"You won't tell anyone will you, about anything? I won't if you won't." Yawne repeated again, whilst linking her hand with La'Ki's and squeezing it gently.
"Promise?" La'Ki asked worryingly.
"Promise." Yawne replied happily. "Now come on, everyone will be wondering where we are!"
Yawne stepped back through the bush and ran inside the largest hut, near the clearing to the hammocks where they slept. La'Ki followed suite, and soon enough had taken her seat next to Yawne inside Stephanie Jude's hut. Here many Na'vi's her age learnt about the humans, and their planet, Earth.
Dr Jude walked towards the Natives, her avatar had long slender black hair, and her face was almost flawless except for a scar reaching from her right eye to her cheek, this occurred the first day here, when she was attacked out of fear by La'Ki's father. Unlike the Na'Vi, Dr Jude wore a bright red jumpsuit, generally due to her human customs of having clothes covering most of the body.
"Today, we shall be learning about the…"
But La'Ki wasn't listening, she was paying much more attention to the leg grazing hers. Looking left at where Yawne was sitting, she could see the young Na'vi female smirking at her, almost teasing her.
"Now… The numbers in English consist of…"
La'Ki was sure her face was bright red, just the feeling Yawne's foot on her leg was making her blush uncontrollably, and then, without warning Yawne placed her hand in La'Ki's and held on tightly.
"One of course is 'aw…"
Yawne was obviously trying to see how far La'Ki would be willing to go without jumping out of her skin, and right now she was doing everything Yawne expected, she was even caressing her hand now!
"La'Ki? What's Number four in Na'vi?"
La'Ki jumped from the seat and sat up straight, letting go of Yawne's hand as fast as possible. Embarrassment was shown across her face, but she did manage to stutter out the answer.
"T… Tsìng?" La'Ki stuttered out, she held her breath until Dr Jude smiled at her and turned back to the blackboard which had been placed on the side of the hut. La'Ki let out a huge sigh and returned to holding Yawne's hand, she then turned and whispered in the young Na'vi female's ear.
"I'll get you back for this. You just wait until we get outside."

La'Ki giggled as she lay on the warm soft grass stroking Yawne's deep blue tail.
"Haha! Stop La'Ki! That tickles!" La'Ki just looked at Yawne and shrugged.
"Payback's a Bitch. Live with it!"
"Okay, fine but you won't get anything from me anymore…"
"Like what?" asked La'Ki innocently,
As soon as La'Ki finished speaking she let go of Yawne's tail immediately, which made Yawne grin widely.
"Oh, maybe this…" Yawne grinned as she grasped hold of La'Ki's ears and pulled her head up to hers, where she gently kissed La'Ki's nose, and then moved to her lips which she licked gently, gently, before licking her cheek…
Sometimes you can get so caught up doing something in your life, you don't realize when someone is stood directly in front of you, this was the case unfortunately for Yawne and La'Ki.
