Ok here's a quick fic I randomly decided to write. I'm just going to let this one write itself I have no real plan.
It take's place in present time.
I don't own avatar I am just messing around with their characters.
I felt around for my phone excitedly. I had just got done talking with my parents and for once was happy afterwards. They had asked me if I would agree to get laser eye surgery to correct my vision. I punched in Aang's number which I had memorized.
"Ring… Ring… Ring… Ring… Hello, we are not available now; please leave a message after the tone: Hey Aang it's Toph call me back as soon as you get this I have something important to tell you."
"Great. The one time Twinkle Toes doesn't pick up is the time I really need him." Aang and I always talk on the phone and hang out, he's pretty nerdy but he's really my only friend.
I sighed loudly and tried to be patient. It was Saturday so I didn't really have anything to do. Weekends were awfully boring, I cant say that I love school but at least it gives me something to do.
I decided I would call Sokka to burn some time, he was pretty fun to talk to anyway.
I punched in his number. "Ring… Ring… Ring… - Hello?" Katara answered.
"Hey its Toph is Sokka there?" I asked politely trying not to get into a conversation with Katara.
"No sorry he's out skateboarding with his friends."
"Oh alright then… I guess I'll see you later."
"Bye." She said quickly, apparently she didn't want to talk either. I was happy, I didn't really like talking to her, she is such a goodie goodie. Well not that Aang isn't but at least he doesn't try and force it on other people.
Almost as soon as she put the phone on the hook it started ringing again. I looked at the caller ID. It was Aang.
"Hello?"
"Hey it's Aang what's up?"
"Big news Twinkle Toes. My parents just said that when I turn thirteen I can get this laser eye surgery and I won't be blind anymore!" I said quickly so excited he had to ask to repeat what I just said.
"Whoa slow down I didn't catch a word you just said."
I took a breath and said it again more slowly this time.
"Wow that's awesome! And your birthday is next week!" He said excitedly.
"Yeah I know I can't wait."
We talked for a few more minutes then the conversation lapsed into silence.
"So… Are you nervous?" He asked cautiously.
"No of course not!" I said with a laugh. "When was the last time you saw me get nervous about anything?"
"Well you know… Surgery it's a big deal."
"Yeah but I'm not scared. I'm too excited to be scared."
"I can't believe it this is going to be awesome!" I couldn't help saying it to him.
"We will probably get to go to the same school!"
"Wow your right I didn't even think about that."
I heard my watch beep. "Hey Aang what time is it?"
"Oh wow it's 11:00 we've been talking for almost 2 hours."
"Wow I guess I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked hopefully.
"Yeah sure at my house?" He asked.
"Sounds great. Bye."
"Bye." I hung up the phone and got into bed.
"This is the greatest day of my life." I thought before I fell asleep.
-The next morning-
I woke up late. I could tell by the hot sun on my face.
My 'dressers' helped me pick out my outfit and I shooed them away afterwards. I hated depending on them for anything.
I pulled my clothes on quickly and dialed Aang's number.
"Ring… Ring… Ring… - "Hello?" Mr. Diggle asked. (He was Aang's foster father)
"Hey Mr. Diggle is Aang around?"
"Yes he is. Aang!" He apparently was summoning him from upstairs.
A few seconds pass then Aang answered: "Hey Toph."
"Hi. You said I could come over today right?"
"Yeah you can come over right now."
"Alright cool see you in a few."
"Bye."
I hung up the phone and ran downstairs. I walked over to the back door with Yogi's leash. My trusty guide dog ran over and obediently put the leash on.
"I'm going to Aang's boy." I felt the tug on the leash and followed it down the street.
I knocked on his door and reached down and gave Yogi a treat.
I heard the door open.
"Hey Toph come on in." I stepped in and took my shoes off. I really hated shoes.
"So what do you want to do?"
"Dunno." I said vaguely.
"Want to bounce on my trampoline?"
"Nah."
"Alright so what do you want to do?"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure what is it?"
"What do I look like?"
"Wow that was random. Uh… Well you're short…" He said awkwardly.
"Oh you're just a wealth of information." I said sarcastically.
"Uh and you have gray eyes, and black hair."
"I uh… don't really understand colors that well." I said wishing she hadn't asked him.
"I've had it described before but I really don't get it."
"Well…" He started, sounding determined.
"Color is… Well it's kinda like… I don't know how to describe it." He said, defeated.
"It's ok I'll find out next week." I said happily. "Let's go on the trampoline."
Well I was planning on making this a one shot but I guess not. I'm on my boat so I can't get an internet connection, which means I can't send this in. So I guess I'll just start writing the second chapter. Review please!
