After Moana left Aisake offered to help with the harvest. "Your welcome to join us," I told him.

We headed back towards the grove where most of the harvest was done. "You hold the basket and I'll get the coconuts," I told him. He nodded and went to fetch a basket.

We got about five trees done when Tui came looking for us. "Moana's asleep in her hut, I got her to eat a little but she looked like she was going to hurl after every bite," he told us with a sigh. "What am I going to do with her? Montinui needs there future chief to be as strong as possible, an this is the first time in two weeks she's eaten anything."

"I'll go check on her to make sure she actually falls asleep," Aisake offered. Tui nodded in appreciation and turned to look at me. "Keep an eyes on her, ok?" I nodded and Tui seemed to relax a little.

Aisake returned a few seconds later. "She keeps tossing and turning but she's in bed," he reported. Tui nodded again and told us to get back to work.

We continued for about an hour before the harvesters insisted we take a break. Aisake went to freshen up and I decided to check on Moana. When I reached her hut I transformed into a bluejay and hopped onto her window cill.

Moana was thrashing. "Stop!" She mumbled. I watched her as tears ran down her face. She curled into a ball and cried quietly. She must be having some sort of nightmare.

After almost two minutes of her crying and me watching, she seemed to relax and calm down a bit. I sighed with relief and hopped down onto her bedside table.

She looked like she would have any normal day. I turned back into my demigod form and smiled at Moana. Even though she still had tear marks she was so cute. I pushed some strands of hair behind her ear.

I realized in that moment how terrified I was for her. She was having a nightmare and it shattered my heart to see her cry. I felt something tugging within me. Something I buried a long time ago.

I began to panic. This was bad, this was really bad. I think... I think I'm falling for Moana...
