Enjoy the Taanginess. There will be hints of Zutara, and Tylokka & AangxMai if you squint. To confirm the 'not serious' part in the summary, that was just to say that Toph's love is going to be major and all serious etc etc. You might understand later. Now you may read :) After the

"Hey."

"Hey."

Minutes pass by in silence.

"What?" Toph asked, already annoyed.

"What?" He questions looks down at her.

Toph growled and rolled her sightless eyes.

"What do you want?"

"Oh, nothing."

Her short temper quickly rises and she jumps up from her previous place of solitude and turns to leave.

"Wait," he stops her before she leaves.

"Wh-" She stops herself from asking him 'what' again and turns around to face him, a scowl plastered on her face.

Just say it already, Twinkle Toes.

"Uh, you look nice today."

Toph's milky eyes widened and she took a stance.

"No no no no no. I mean you don't. Well you do. But you should…uh…do something with your hair," he attempts to correct himself unsurely. Aang held his arms in front of him in defence.

Toph threw her hands up in frustration at the airbender, he winces at this. And finally she smirks playfully and hits him square in the chest with a rock. "Don't. Ever. Say Anything. Like That. Again! Or I will earthbend you so far into the Spirit World you won't know what hit you," she growled, pointing a finger at him in a threatening manner.

She turned again and stalked away, she needed to go and find Katara.

"Stupid!" Aang kicked himself for being so senseless. Where was Zuko when he needed him? He had had experience with girls. Even Sokka could've helped him; he had managed to keep Suki after all, even Yue.

O0oO0oO0o

"Um, Katara, can I talk to you for a moment?" Toph asks a little tentatively.

Katara? Since when has Toph called me Katara? "Sure."

They began to walk away out of ear shot from the others.

"What's up?" Katara asked casually.

"Am I...Am I pretty?"

Katara smiled as Toph added as an afterthought, "And I'll know if you're lying."

"Well actually, Toph, you are very nice looking girl. You don't even need make-up or to have your hair down to look nice."

Toph was satisfied with the truth in Katara's tone and said, "Thanks. I wish I could say the same for you. But do you think...guys would take notice of me?"

"Sure they would. Well as I just said you're a beautiful young girl, you're funny, you get along with guys well and most of all you're a mast earthbender with the right attitude. You can be demanding but you can also be caring and-"

"OK, Sugar Queen, I get it."

Katara laughed inwardly. Toph had hastily regained her usual attitude.

"Oh before you leave, Mai and Ty lee have given us an invitation to their party. Do you want to come along? Everyone is going."

"Uh..." There was a long pause.

"You know, if you're self-conscious about your looks we can go get a make-over or something. Like a girl's day out."

"I don't do 'girl's day out' Princess."

"Oh come on, it'll be fun. Think of it as a day out just to get away from the boys."

Toph seemed to like this idea. "Ok fine, you got yourself a deal. Anything to get away from them." She indicated somewhere near where Aang was jumping up and down attempting to get his air staff back in which Sokka and Zuko had just taken.

"Are they coming to the party?" Toph asked doubtfully.

"Unfortunately."

Well this is the start of the adventures for Toph! :)
