Chapter 1

A/N: "Speaking" 'Thinking'

"God how can I be so stupid" Aang said to himself as he sat himself slowly down by the river and sinking his feet into the pond.

"Cold" he said shivering softly but soon his body quickly adjusts to the temperature of the water and began to splash the water and let it make droplets in the pond. "Hmmm, I can remember what happened like it was yesterday" (ironically enough it was about only a week ago)

-Flash Back-

"See Aang, it's not that hard all you have to do is make sure that you keep your body leveled and your arms loose, (she demonstrated for him and easily brought the small ball of water with ice spikes and flung it at a tree) now you try." Katara said turning to him

"Katara I've tried this moves twenty times already and I failed every time" Aang said sighing

Katara slowly walks toward Aang

"Is something the matter? You seem so distracted and away."

Trying to bring himself to admit something, hard to admit

"There is something, very important."

"Well go ahead and say it, I'm sure I'll like it. She gave him a confirming smile

Aang: "Ok, well Katara, the truth is that…

"That you are taking away too much time away from me to teach him earth bending". Yelled Toph

both turn around to see Aang's other teach, Toph

"Sorry Toph didn't see you there" she said waving to her "Aang we can finish this later".

"But I was… Crap" Aang Slowly made his way out of the water toward Toph

"Come on Twinkle Toes, your wasting my time" said Toph

LATER THAT NIGHT

"Come on Katara, you need to finish up with that stew, I'm dying of starvation over here". Groaned Sokka as he rubbed his growling stomach

"Well if you can cook it any faster than you come over here and cook it yourself!" shouted Katara angrily as she began to stir the pot faster with her wooden spoon.

"On second thought maybe you should finish it, your doing such a good job." Sokka said nervously

"That's what I thought you said". She said smiling evilly

Aang is now just getting back with Toph from his training

"Well you seem to be improving a little bit there Aang" Toph stated while patting him on the back and bowing to her "Thanks to you for being such a good teacher."

Toph couldn't help but blush and that's when Aang realized something

'What am I doing I'm in love with Katara and I'm flirting with Toph?!?'

Wham

"Ouch, Aang be careful I almost spilt dinner all over us" Katara said trying to balance the bowls in her hand

"Yeah, you almost cost me a meal." "Not a good one but at least one editable" Sokka said letting the stew slide off his spoon back into the bowl

"WHAT WAS THAT?!?" Katara screamed at Sokka

Girly scream "Nothing just saying how good your stew is going to taste." He lied through his teeth.

"Here Aang" Katara said as she handed Aang a bowl

"Thanks Katara". As he grabbed for it, their hand touched.

Blushing they released for a moment and then Aang got his bowl whispering "Thanks" again smiling "No problem"

After dinner everyone went to bed, except Aang who just stayed up to think

"What am I doing, I'm in love with Katara and yet I'm flirting with Toph" Aang said to him self beating himself up over it

He got up to go for a walk when he heard a small grunt; frightened he turned to see it was only Sokka shifting positions in his sleeping bag.

"Phew, for a moment there I thought…"

"Thought what that you would wake me" Katara said startling him

"Ahhh!!!" he screamed

Katara quickly covered his mouth before he could wake the others

"Come with me"

Katara led him away from the camp to a secluded part of the woods
