The Thinking Never Ends
Chapter 26
Maui's POV
As the day goes on, I find myself thinking more and more about marriage. Everything from the concept of it to what our wedding would be like. Personally, I feel like we'd end up having a beach wedding and a lovely dinner afterwards. It would be a small and peaceful one. I wouldn't have as many people to invite as Moana. Even though her parents banished her, she is still liked by many of her village people. Me, I'm disliked by almost everyone. I'm hoping that changes in time.
Despite my egotistical ways and my tough guy exterior, I'm a die hard romantic. The date and wedding ideas that float around in my mind are like those that you see in the movies. Some guys would be embarrassed by that, but not me. I take pride in being the way that I am. I may not always treat everyone with respect, but I do when it comes to the women I love. I was like that with Loa and I'm like that even more than Moana. I tried my best with Loa, but back then, I was a work in progress. I had just gotten my powers not too long before I met her. So needless to say, I was power hungry and obsessed. Though in each of my two relationships, I learned important life lessons. With Loa, I learned to cherish each day as it were my last because life really is a precious gift that shouldn't be wasted. With Moana, I learned what it's like to love someone besides myself and it feels pretty darn good. Being in love with someone other than yourself is truly special. I hope that everyone is able to love another person as much as I love Moana.
Anyways, speaking of questions that Moana and I constantly think about asking one another, I thought of one to ask myself. That question being what was her childhood like. I sit down beside Moana and put my feet in the ocean. "Moana, I have a question for you." She motions for me to ask. "What was your childhood like?" I watch a sea of emotions float across her face. Joy, sorrow, anger, and nostalgia. "It wasn't the worst, but it could have been a lot better. My parents never allowed me to explore the way I always dreamed of doing. Believe it or not, our journey to restore the heart was the first voyage I've ever been on. Despite it's moments, it was the best time of my life. The only person who really shared my love of adventure besides you was Gramma Tala. She never judged me my parents did. She never made me feel like a disgrace or unloved. She loved the ocean just as much as I do. She was the one who told me to find you and save the islands from being destroyed. If she was still alive, there's no doubt in my mind that she would have came with us."
I nod taking her words in. "Well Moana, like she said, if you need her, she's only a thought away. All you have to do is think of her and she'll try her best to appear. Just remember you're not alone. You have her in spirit, the ocean, and me. As long as you have the three of us, you'll be just fine." I tap her on the nose and she giggles that cute giggle of hers. God I love hearing her giggle. It's the most adorable, beautiful sound I've ever heard come out of anyone's mouth. My laugh sounds like a donkey's. That's why I just grunt a lot while smiling. I'm way too insecure about my laugh to let it slip out that often.
