A/N: Aonung is 20 and you're 26, Koro belongs to Avatar, and everyone else belongs to me.

Prompt: "Just shut up and kiss me"

--------------------------------------------------------------

Aonung is not sure what demon possessed him but, he is pretty sure it's you. Tsireya and Lo'ak have already mated before Eywa once Lo'ak completed his Inkimaya. He liked how for the Metkayina he didn't have to give up his role of Olo'eyktan because Lo'ak wasn't interested and insisted on him being Olo'eyktan which he will be eternally grateful for. Now, his parents kept hinting or outright telling him he needed to find a mate but, he knew who he wanted. It's you, however, you keep playing hard to get because of your age. He had told you when he was 13, and older he would claim you but, you laughed it off saying you're too old. You were so insecure about your age which was a load of bull shit you weren't even that much older than him! You had him by 6 years who cares? You were perfect to him. You were insecure about your height since you were shorter than Reya but, he loved it, you could fit in his arms better especially since he and his dad are eye to eye now. He loved how soft your belly was in comparison to the other women on the island, you were never one to shy away from food and he loved your hefty appetite, it made him want to hunt and collect fruits, roots, and whatever else you wanted to eat. 

"You're staring again Nung." He turned his eyes to his sister, rolling his eyes fondly.

"And I will continue to admire her, now go be with Lo'ak, and let me admire my future wife in peace." Reya rolled her eyes in exasperation, patted him on the shoulder, and disappeared to do who knows what. Probably Lo'ak.

His eyes followed your frame and he felt himself smiling at you. He was so in love with you and obsessed he's not even sure if you know just how deep his love, his need, and his want for you ran through his veins. You were weaving away on your Tsurak and the sun reflected off of your tattoos that he wanted to kiss every night as he held you close to him and listened to you tell him about your day no matter how mundane it was. He wanted to worship you from the top of your head to your full breasts, to your soft belly, your thick thighs and legs, down to your feet. He'll get on his knees and beg for you to be his, he needed and wanted you to be his. He wanted a family with you, he wanted to grow old with you, he wanted to be mated before Eywa to you and only you. You made his heart skip a beat, you made him feel like he could be and do everything in the world. You were healthy and strong, not as strong as him you didn't need to be, he could protect you with one hand if needed. His head turned at the sight of his best friend/brother Rotxo who was mated to Kiri approaching.

"You still haven't claimed her? You know others have their eyes on her like Koro." He and Roxto shared a look at that. Koro was good, there wasn't anything per se wrong with him, however, when it came to the girls, the unmated women he swore he could get anyone he wanted. There was only one girl who swooned for him and he never paid her any mind. He's an idiot like that. 

"Koro knows better to try and claim what's mine." Aonung was possessive, to say the least, he could be arrogant on a good day but, you? You brought a side of him out he didn't even know he was capable of having.

"I know she has to know, I catch her blushing every time she looks at you, and she smiles but, she's so shy about it. Reminds me a little bit of Kiri." The two of them started talking about you and Kiri, taking notice of you and Kiri together as well.

---------------------------------------

"Y/N, you're killing me." You and Kiri got along well, especially when she completed her Inkimaya and got matching tattoos with Rotxo once mating with him. "Why are you playing games with Aonung like this? I usually love to see him suffer but, this is too much even for me!" The two of you were talking and you felt yourself blushing just at the thought of him.

"I love him so much, it hurts but...why would he want someone like me? There's other women he could choose from, one's a little closer in age." Kiri rubbed a hand down her face, sighing heavily in exasperation.

"Aonung doesn't give a shit, about you being older. The way he looks at you and talks about you to me and Lo'ak?? and Rotxo as well? He would get on his knees and beg for your love and affection." You couldn't help the giggle that came out of you looking at Kiri with hopeful eyes.

"It's my insecurities isn't it?" Kiri nodded and went to speak but, an annoying voice behind you answered. 

"Aonung doesn't need someone older, he needs someone young and who can keep up with him." You turned around to glare at Atarina. You couldn't stand her, not only because everyone on this damn island knew she just wanted Aonung for the status, she was arrogant and full of herself. She just freshly passed her Inkimaya, after failing twice. "He's only nice to you because that's his duty as Olo'eyktan, he has to treat all of us with respect whether he likes them or not."

"Is she talking about the same Aonung?" You turned to Kiri just as perplexed. If Aonung didn't like you, you would know. You raised an eye ridge at her.

"It's clear you don't know Aonung as well as you claim. Maybe you should try again since three is your lucky number." You smirked in her face knowing her Inkimaya was a sore spot for her and you expected the oncoming fight.

--------------------------------------

"I think I have to be more clear with my feelings then." Roxto was going to agree but, cussed instead. Aonung turned at the uncharacteristic cuss following Roxto who was moving at the scene in front of him. He felt anger rise inside of him. Atarina and her foolish friends were jumping his syulang and Kiri hence why Roxto hissed. They both sped up getting closer and Aonung couldn't help the small smirk when Atarina stretched to scratch Y/N and missed falling into the water. Kiri was clinging onto Y/N but, both of them turned at the sight of him and Roxto. 

"What's going on here?" He did a glance over Y/N seeing she had a gash on her side, most likely protecting Kiri and he had to keep the snarl from his face. He will tend to it once he gets this situation sorted out. "Atarina you speak first." He already knew she was going to lie and, once she saw she had attention on her she started batting her eyes at him. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Y/N glaring in disgust at her which made him want to kiss her senseless right then and there.

"My friends and I were coming over here to have a little chat with these two..." She glared at them turning her 'sugar' eyes back to Aonung who just found her repulsive. "When Kiri got snarky, talking about you and Y/N agreed. They didn't like that I was defending you and hit me first so of course I had to defend myself." You didn't realize it but, you were squeezing the spear in your hand so hard your knuckles changed colors and Kiri was no better. 

"I hate liars Atarina." Atarina had the nerve to look shocked and Aonung didn't bother hiding the snarl. "I know Kiri enough to know she doesn't do that and I especially know ma Y/N doesn't start arguments with petulant children." You're not sure which one stung more, the insult or the fact that Aonung just openly claimed you. You were stunned as well. 

"...You said Ma Y/N." Atarina didn't even bother playing anymore, she was straight up glaring at you and looking at Aonung in disbelief. "You...want her? An old woman?" It took every muscle in your body to keep from reacting but, your eye and ear twitched which Aonung picked up on. Roxto had already grabbed Kiri who was clinging to him. He was her soft spot. Aonung let out a dangerous growl that had Atarina shutting up and flinching. 

"You will do yourself a favor and never speak ill about my future mate. I never wanted you and never will. Now go find yourself something safe to do and leave ma Y/N alone." Atarina said nothing, as angry tears sprung to her eyes and she left with her friends right behind her. You should feel a little bad for her but, you don't. You feel shocked and smug and want to jump to Aonung and kiss him stupidly. He turned to you then with an unreadable expression swimming into your space.

"Aonung?" He said nothing except to pick you up, place you on his Tsurak giving you enough time to wave to Kiri and Roxto before he swam away.

"You're bleeding. I have bandages in my marui." He was holding you firmly by the hip to make sure you didn't fall off, passing by a couple of people including Koro who seemed shocked. The two of you made it to the netting where he placed you on first before climbing up. You went to stand but, he picked you up and walked inside his Marui. Being the Olo'eyktan had its perks since his Marui was big, had curtains for privacy and he didn't have close neighbors. Once inside, he sat you down on his mat, and you sat in front of him watching as he got everything and tended to your light cuts and the gash on your side from where Atarina tried stabbing Kiri. 

"Your home is much bigger than I thought." Maybe it was the nerves, but, you felt the need to fill up the space as he cleaned up your wounds and bandaged them. You didn't realize how much you were talking because he finished and used both hands to cup your face in between them. That forced you to stop as the two of you held eye contact and he smirked at you. "Um-"

"Just shut up and kiss me." You felt your eyes widen at the boldness but, remembered the pep talk Kiri was giving you. Don't be afraid. You took a breath and had the pleasure of seeing a slight surprise in his eyes when you leaned forward and pressed your lips against his. You were nervous but, when you felt him move his hands from your face to place along your back to pull you more against him, you knew your worries were all for nothing. This is where you belong, with your Aonung. The two of you pulled apart, pressing your foreheads together. "I see you ma Y/N, my Syulang." You hummed, wrapping your arms firmly around his neck.

"As I see you ma Nung."
