This chapter is a more humorous chapter. We'll see how it turns out. I went ahead and used third person pov of view since it seemed better and no one objected to it. Enjoy the story and chapter. I understand there hasn't been a lot of Wanume lately but there will be.
There are some things that don't translate from English to Navi but one of the words that does is wine, or Kava in Navi. At least that's all Jake could think of tonight. He slowly stumbled over to the table serving the Kava. He tripped on his way there and stepped on another Navi's tail. Lucky for him though they were drunk. Jake finally reached the table without another incident.
"Oel Ngati Kamie, cannnn I have some more of that..hiccup.. drink there?" Jake said, noticing the bartender was a female, he tried to remember her name. Fatal, Kato, Peyral. Ya, that was it. "Please Peyral" he wiggled his eyebrow a bit. Too bad for him Neytiri was watching. She didn't like the interaction. After Jake received his drink, Neytiri grabbed him and took the drink.
"Come onnnn, Neytirtir. Gimme ma drink" He sloppily reached for it and promptly fell over onto the ground. Neytiri just stood there, stumped by the nickname. What kind of nickname was Neytirtir? She bent down to his level, smacked the back of his head and as he got up of the ground, she poured the alcohol on his head.
He quickly tried to drink it off of his face. Some people were bad drinkers. It was a good thing Neytiri hadn't consumed alcohol this evening. She wouldn't want anybody to see what a bad drinker she was. Bad memories came from that thought.
As Neytiri had nothing more to do she thought about how this afternoon had started….
"So, where do they serve drinks around here." Jake asked, listening to the drums in the background beat in rhythm. Neytiri looked at him confused, thinking she had shown him where the water was before.
"The water is in river Jhake." Neytiri said hoping he would remember that simple detail.
Jake face palmed and said "No, not that kind of drink not water, but, you know, intoxicants, loopy drinks, something that makes you have a killer headache in the morning." Jake tried to tell her it was alcohol but on simpler levels. "Alcohol is the word in English."
Neytiri said, "You want Kava, the party drink? Wouldn't it hurt your dreamwalker body?"
"Well there's only one way to find out. Who's serving?" Jake desperately wanted a drink, something that was tabooed back on base.
" I believe Peyral is." Neytiri said, making a mental note to tell Peyral to not give Jhake to many drinks. Jake walked off to get a drink as Neytiri sat at the table and watched the mates dance. The first part of all Navi parties' start off with a celebration the union of couples, and so only the mates danced first. Neytiri watched always stunned at how elegantly they danced. Even though she could dance to with Tsu'tey, who was expected to be her mate, it never ceased to amaze her at the way they danced and she simply liked watching instead of dancing.
The day went from good to great for Jake as one drink led to another. The Navi drinks were way better than humans. One drink and you were buzzed almost instantly. Jake played games with other Navi and ended up instead of spin the bottle it was spin the arrow.
Neytiri decided to sit down and watch not realizing that the drunk Navi thought she was playing. Jake took a turn at spinning. It started off fast and spun round and round almost making Jake puke but it slowly came to an end pointing off at Neytiri.
Jake went to claim his prize but instead claimed a slap to the face and the embarrassment of being done so in front of his fellow drinkers. Good thing they wouldn't remember any of this tomorrow. The night progressed on until Neytiri was woken out of her recent memory by Jake exclaiming loudly, "Lets dance, baby." He slurred the words together, and made it sound a bit like a prolemur gargling . He grabbed Neytiri's wrist and led her onto the dance floor…
Tsu'tey watched as Neytiri danced. He admitted to himself that no one danced better than her but still he didn't lover he like he should. He sat on the floor all by himself and watched the dancers swirl and twirl. He thought back to the events of the past days and wondered if he handled them well. He sensed something behind him and maybe the Kava put him on edge but he didn't turn. He felt a hand on his shoulder and instantly recognized it.
"Why have you come back?" Tsu'tey said bitterly, not wanting, no he couldn't look her in the eye.
"I know I screwed up but does that mean we still can't be friends?" Desperation resonated through her voice.
Tsu'tey turned around and looked into her eyes. What he saw scared him. The warrior inside him seemed to creep away as he stared into her golden orbs. For once he melted on the inside. Inner warrior, inner warrior he thought on the inside. What he saw was his last chance to keep his friend or forever turn her away.
"You left me. You were my only friend and you knew it. I worried about you, and you made me do something that hurt me even more. You made me scared for someone again. When my parents died I promised I would never see fear again but instead face it in the eye and you lowered me." Tsu'tey said, trying to get her to see.
Wanume sat down slowly as if gravity slowly sank her to the ground. " Forgiveness Tsamsiyu?" She wouldn't cry anymore and as she said this Tsu'tey slowly put his arm around her and pulled her close. He knew what he was doing was forbidden but for once went agains't tradition. He looked at the moon, as her head lay on his shoulder, unspoken words, going between them wondering what was in store for them next.
Hope I portrayed how Tsu'tey would act. I particularly liked the ending, hope it wasn't cheesy or anything and I hope you enjoy every chapter. Please, review cause I really want to know how this chapter turned out. Thanks for getting this far. And no, this is story is far from the end, so just because i used the title doesn't means its over. :)
