A/N: Hey guys! JY here, I'm thinking of just making this a oneshot, I have a lot of other stories that I'm currently working on as well and I also have school, I might update this story though if I get enough reviews (hint hint) but I really have no ideas on how to continue. Anyways, on with the story!
Disclaimer: As much as it's painful to admit, I don't own Avatar, but if I did at least some of the profits from it would go to my university funding. What? University's expensive!
Second Best
I'm so sick and tired of always being pushed aside from Sugar Queen in Aang's eyes. I hate how I always have to settle for second best. You really want to know why I have a "crush" on Sokka, hmm? I pretend to have a crush on Snoozles so I won't get hurt anymore when I 'see' Twinkle Toes gazing at Sugar Queen with longing eyes, and oh so wish he were looking at me like that at that moment. But, how do you know that he is gazing at Katara, Toph, you're a blind girl after all. I may be blind but I am not stupid, I know what is going on around me, I know when I'm not really wanted by the one I love.
It hurt a lot when Aang was yelling at me in the desert. After I saved him and everybody else! Mind you, I did let those sandbending creeps steal Appa. Maybe I should've let them die in the library, at least Appa would've still been safe! But every time the thought crosses my mind, I know I couldn't have brought myself to do it.
When I left my home, and everything basically, to go traveling with Twinkle Toes, I thought, yes freedom at last! Only to realize later, when I had fallen for him already and it was too late to turn back, that I'm stuck in a proverbial prison yet again!
Why do I even bother? I keep on telling myself everyday that it's because he's the last hope for peace in the world, and that I need to teach him everything I know about earthbending, but I know I cannot keep telling myself that lie. I've been with Twinkle Toes and the group for about six months now, and I've pretty much taught him almost everything I know. I know that I can't stay with him and the group for much longer. It pains my heart to just stand by and do absolutely nothing while Twinkle Toes is totally oblivious to everything, no let me correct that, every girl, but Sugar Queen. I don't know when I'll leave, but when the time is right I'll leave. I don't have to stand for this; I have more important things to do with my life! But it still hurts though to know that someday I'll have to say goodbye to Aang after all we've been through.
I sure hope he'll be happy with Sugar Queen.
A/N: So, what do you think? Should I continue, or not? Anyways, please review and if you flame try to be nice, I don't flame anybody that badly and I would expect the same courtesy. But preferably stick to the rule of 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all'. That always works!
