Aang watched Azula's every move, watched her go slowly, not looking at him, toward Toph. He saw Toph eyes widen as she felt Azula come near her and catching her arm.
"You're free now, earthbender." Azula said coldly, grinning evilly as Aang eyes widened in surprise.
"What..? What do you mean by that?" Aang asked Azula as she pulled the young earthbender a bit closer to her and rested her hands on her shoulders.
"Aang, don't listen to her! She's –"
"I mean that this young bei fong lady helped the fire nation from the start!" Azula interrupted Toph with an even wider grin. Toph crystal colored eyes began sparkling with tears.
"Is she telling the truth Toph?" Aang asked the blind girl who now began crying silently. Toph barley nodded and Aang felt broken from the inside.
"But I had no other choice!" the earthbender cried helplessly "she said she'll kill all that meant most to me! She said –"
"At least you could shut up and not break him more than you already did" Azula said happily. Toph fell on her knees as Azula let her hands firm grip around Toph shoulders loosen a bit and buried her face in her hands as she started to cry harder than before.
"I... I didn't mean to... To harm you like this... I..." Toph had stopped for a second before she tried to say the words she wanted to say badly for quite some time now, but never had found the perfect chance "I like you, Aang… no! More than that. I... I love you!" Toph had felt the heat coming to her cheeks and she blushed, like every time she had day dreamed about him, but this time it was more than a day dream. It was real. Today she had no cold water to wash her face and make the heat go away, today was no ordinary day.
"I'm sorry" Aang said and left without even looking at her, Toph felt anger burning trough her body, than it all blurred and two pairs of eyes opened after some good night sleep.
'I told him everything… my secret and the truth about my feelings toward him… god I hope this will never happen, not even in my dreams!' Toph thought to herself and gotten to her feet, she started walking to the small river that they camped next to in order to wash her face from the bits of redness she had from that dream.
"You look disturbed Aang, why are up this kind of early anyway?" Katara asked with a yawn.
"Its nothing, just some weird dream about Toph, dreamed that she was working with Azula and in love with me, isn't that foolish?" Aang said with a smile, but he did not think it was foolish, it felt way too real for him.
