I only own Amaya and Huojin. Niu, Jiayi, and Bai all belong to dramallama95 on Deviantart. Please do enjoy these short stories I have written.
Question
"Amaya… what is your relationship with Huojin?"
Said brunette girl looked up across the table at the petite earth bender with an inquisitive expression. She wondered where this was coming from but would answer nonetheless.
"We're friends." There wasn't much to explain. They had gone on a date once but that ended in disaster and they had both come to the conclusion that it just wouldn't work out. They were and will only be friends. "Why?"
Niu shuffled in her spot bringing her tea to her lips, cheeks a small shade of red as her stomach dropped. "No reason."
Her Cheshire grin grew, Amaya knew this was brought up by 'nothing'. "You can ask me anything about him, I won't tell~"
This was what she had been nervous about, that the water bender would catch on to her act but she needed to know. So before she had any conscious idea of what she was doing the words stumbled out, "do you know if he likes anyone?"
The golden question! "I know he has his eyes set on one girl," it really wasn't her place to admit that the girl she was speaking about was sitting right in front of her. Huojin never confessed to her but she was quite intuitive when it came to the boy, he was pretty easy to read especially when he treated her like trash and Niu was the princess he treated with a delicate hand.
The expression on Niu's face became solemn, giving a small nod in understanding (though she didn't completely understand the double meaning in Amaya's words). "I see…"
"I knew he liked you…"
Wait, What?! Amaya's brain sent out a warning as the earth bender stormed out of the teahouse, this was not what she meant!
