I see several views but so far i've had to wait for reviews.
Despite the fight they had Maui started hanging around Motunui with more and more Kakamara being spotted a day or two away.
Some days Moana would be joking with the masculine demigod , other times they would start up an angry shouting match , a few times Moana would hit Maui with her oar (no danger of him being hurt, the oar would break first) , a couple of times Maui would throw Moana into the sea and the Ocean would place her back onto land.
Some of those matches would start up after one or 2 of the village single men flirted with her in Maui's sight , others were because Maui was getting upset that Moana was drifting away from him , and then there was a couple of times where Moana started the fight after Maui spent several months away from the island.
Tui worried about this thunderous friendship between his daughter and the demigod ; but his wife Sina and the elders ,who when they were young had a thunderous relationship with the ones who became their spouses, ( who also started a betting pot on Moana and Maui ) were nudging each other each time they saw the pair be around each other. After awhile most of the rest of the village caught on to what the elders saw.
Maui was hanging around the by the bottom of the south side cliffs in his beetle form after a fight after he was away for 6 months when some of the fishermen came to empty the fish traps and Maui could hear what they were talking about.
" have you seen the betting pot that the elders have set up?"
' a betting pot? Sounds like it could be fun. What are they betting on?' Maui thought to himself
" I put in 10 of my best shell beads." the most muscled one told his fellows , "which way did you bet?" the skinny one asked
" I bet that Moana and Maui would marry and not kill each other!" he said with a laugh
" did you hear that fight that happened this morning?" skinny asked " who couldn't? Moana's a stubborn one and she's attracted an equally stubborn demigod." " she missed him." remarked the oldest in the boat.
About now Maui fell into the ocean in shock and then the Ocean set him back on a nearby rock causing the fishermen to pause and look behind them a second after the ocean returned to normal.
' that fight was because she missed me?'' his shocked mind registered before the men resumed talking.
" some think they will one day destroy the village with their fighting ." the skinny guy told them.
" nonsense , only a couple of others besides yourself think that. Moana will chase Maui away before that ever happens." muscles assured skinny.
Maui flew away as the men started bringing their haul to the island , he changed back in to his usual giant hawk form to find a place to think once they were out of sight.
Maui started to come and go more frequently ; 5 months tended to be the longest he was gone with his coming and goings , he still went exploring other lands and helped other villages he just stuck around Motunui more often then other places, after that and he began to see a few things he hadn't seen before.
Ok so I'm getting to the point where I was struggling with writers block for several days and even now I'm not entirely happy with how I solved it. I'd love for feed back and ideas. I'll post the next chapter after I get 2 more chapters. The next chapter will be focused on Moana.
