Chapter 1 Getting Ready

"Ugh….izmornin….."

I woke up to the sun shining through my window…how I hate the sun. But, without the sun, I wouldn't be able to see the sun's rays reflecting on the moon, so I guess the sun isn't that bad.

"C'mon, Kat. Hurry up before Sokka gets the bathroom."

I pushed myself up and leaned on my elbows trying to figure which way is up. The mornings aren't too good for me. I finally pushed myself to my feet and walked over to my door. Gran Gran was standing there with a towel in her hand.

"If you hurry you can take a nice, warm shower before school starts." She casually added the comment with a sparkle in her eye before turning to leave to go and wake up Sokka.

I took Gran Gran's advice and bristly walked over to the bathroom. I couldn't help but notice that Gran Gran has been on my case ever since I had a boyfriend. Well, not really a boyfriend, Jet (my 'boyfriend') and I just happened to hang out…a lot.

When my brither, Sokka, found out, he went berserk. I was just coming back home and Jet was walking with me and at my doorstep did he lean over and pecked a kiss on cheek. Sokka came bursting in my room after I had just arrived and ranted at me. Then I pleaded him not to tell Gran Gran, but that sure didn't work when Sokka blurted it out two nights ago at dinner.

Ugh, Sokka. I said NOT to tell anyone. A mental post-it notice in my head said to kill him after school today.

It's the first day of high school this morning…great. Even though I would be in my first year of high school, I would still see students that were 5 years younger than me. The schools here were joined into one building some years ago seeing that Amber Beach is a small town... And I mean small.

It was nice though. I could still see my friend Aang even though he is a year younger than I am. But Aang is special. He's been my friend for about 2 years; ever since he came to this small suburb with his an old man named Gyatso. Well, I guess that Gyatso is just a guardian to Aang.

I thought of all the good times Aang and I had play-battling each other and laughing at Sokka every time he got in the way. It's nice to have a friend who understands that I want to be a kid forever.

I yanked the brush out of my tangled, morning hair. It is easier to brush after a shower when you brush before a shower. A loud knock interrupted my brushing and some ranting right after.

"Hurry up, Kat!" It was Sokka, no doubt that he's in a hurry, like every morning. "I told Suki that I would meet with her today before school starts, and I rather not do it in my pajamas!"

"I'm sorry, but I think that Suki will like you a lot more if she saw you in your boxers!"

I commented before a mocking laugh. I could feel the tension in Sokka's body as he spun on his heel and walked down for breakfast. "Just hurry up!" I heard Sokka yell back when he was halfway down the stairs.

After the smirk slid off of my face, I was getting ready to take a shower. I turned on the water and looked at the cold streaks hit the bath tub floor. As I was waiting for the water to warm up, I fiddled with the ends of my hair. I just got a trim on my hair last week for school. Gran Gran wanted my hair cut to be five inches shorter considering that it's already down the middle of my back. But I love my long hair. I love the way is feels every time I ran or swam in the ocean.

Having no succession with untangling my hair, I stepped into the warmer water and started rinsing myself. Today, I think is going to be a good day.

Thank you for reading my first chapter and I hope that you all liked it!! if its too short, just tell me, 'cuz personally I don't know how long it should be to fill your need. And once again may I say to please review!!!!!!
