A/N: Just a little cute drabble. I know it's been done before but I just felt compelled to write one myself. Hope you like it.
What's Blue?
I lay silently in the grassy clearing. Aang and Katara have left to look for food. Toph is beside me as we stare up at the sky. We haven't said anything to each other in a long time, just listening to the stream not far away, the wind blowing through the trees and the sound of each other's breathing.
"Sokka, what's blue?" Toph asks so quietly I almost don't hear it. I give a confused look towards her before realizing her eyes are towards the sky.
"What do you mean what's blue?" I ask. She snorts and I see her lazily wave a hand in front of her face. I blush crimson realizing what she means. I turn towards the sky and think silently trying how to describe it.
"People have told me, the sky is blue and that water is as well but I can't see it and I'm just curious as to what it is." Toph states quietly. I smile as an explanation forms in my head.
"Blue is the feel of cool rain falling on your skin. The sound of snow crunching under your boots as you walk. The taste of a cool drink on a hot summer day. The smell of dew in the morning. Blue is sad. It's peaceful like how the two of us were, quiet and thoughtful, just enjoying each other's company. I guess that's how I would describe blue." I replied staring up at the sky. Toph is quiet for a long time and her eyes are shut. She opened her eyes lazily and turned towards me.
"Sokka, what's snow?"
