I could NOT help myself. Seriously. Totally Kataang. (eee... so cute!)

This is something I could envision happening not to far in the futureof the show.

Just a quick drabble fic. I'll update if anyone asks of me.

It's a follow up from THE FORTUNETELLER EP.

Send me money. Then I'll own Avatar. Well... maybe.

AFTER A LONG JOURNEY ON APPA (assuming they get him back)

Aang was sitting and watching as Sokka pulledhis sleeping bag, at the edges straightening it out for sleep; while Katara went off to gather firewood and Toph set up her "tent" far away enough from Appa and the rest of the group as she could.

But he could watch Sokka silently no longer, heaving a breath, he quietly whipped around him, wanting to get something off his chest, stood next to him, rocked back and forth on his feet and then blew at the air nonchalantly. "So?"

"Yeah, I'm pretty tired" his companion said obliviously, not recognizing that his friend wanted to talk.

"That's nice. Hey. Sokka?"

He eyed him wearily "what's up, twinkle toes?"

"Twinkle toes?"

"Yeah. It kinda stuck."

The curious look disappeared quick from the young airbender's face and he shrugged his shoulders "Whatever. I just wanted to say thanks..."

"Don't mention it."

"Aren't you going to ask what for?"

"Well I just thought it was the usual... thanks for being Sokka type thing."

Aang raised an eyebrow, "thanks for being Sokka?"

"You're welcome."

Sokka fluffed out his sleeping bag a little more.

Aang persisted. "That's not what I meant. I kinda wanted to thank you for being alright with me liking Katara."

"Hey, what's family for?" Sokka said nonchalantly, and settled down to get in his sleeping bag.

A second later he was upright, like a walking mummy encased in his sleeping bag.

"What?" He screetched triping over himself and getting a face full of dirt.

Aang turned back to him. "When you told me you knew how I felt that time. It was really great. I thought you'd be a little more..."

"What time?" He said looking up and spluttering on granules of the earth as he spoke, getting a little hysterical, as Sokka usually does.

"You never told me you like..."

He began again, but a female voice behind him cut in.

Aang's face grew dark and ominious.

"Like what?"The girlsaid juggling a small mound of firewood.

"Like Momo." Sokka cut in sheepishly laughing and rubbing the back of his neck, throwing a warning look to Aang when Katara wasn't looking.

"Yeah." Aang laughed harder, though a little strained.

Katara gave him a weird look.

"But he doesn't know how to tell Momo" Sokka continued still glaring at Aang.

"Well... I'm sure Momo knows how he feels" Katara said a little curiously.

"I don't think so" continued Sokka looking at Aang. "I mean, it's good to be sure he knows... just in case anything happens again... you know... with the fire nation or something..."

"I'll make sure I tell Momo for him if he feels embarrassed." Katara said, smiling at Aang.

"Thanks Katara. I can always count on you." He said a little woozily. Close call.

"Yeah. But Aang might ALSO want to tell Momo himself... just in case."

"OK. Gotcha." Katara said, pointing a finger on her free hand sarcastically at her brother.

"Hey. Thanks Sokka."

He played dumb in his sister's presence "For what?"

"For being Sokka."

"You and me talk later" he mouthed back, when she'd turned her back again.

"What was that?" Asked Katara.

"Nothing!" The boys chimed, before Sokka dusted himself off, Aang walked away whistling andtwirling his staffand Katara herself, shook her head and laid out the firewood.
