He looked into her eyes

He saw a beautiful, caring, brave, loving woman

Too bad she was gone

It wasn't long after that he reunited with a familiar face

She was also brave, caring, and beautiful...

He looked into her eyes before,

But he wouldn't admit he loved someone else to her face

She could stare at the moon and not realize it's glow,

He wasn't sure if she'd understand...

But, he was scared for her now

He wasn't sure on how hurt she was, or what exactly happened to her, or where she was

He didn't need to wonder, he knew it was most likely painful...and far away

He started to cry that night, thinking about his cursed life of loneliness

"Yue..." he muttered "protect her, please..."

It felt almost sinful to ask a lost-loved to protect his new love...

She was his love, right???

He was confused...

He didn't hear her coming his way

He didn't know why she was up this late

Or how she always knew where he was

Or how she seemed to know his thoughts

She just quietly walked up, and placed her small hand on his shoulder...

He stared at her pale face, looking up at the night sky with her sightless eyes

"It's okay, Sokka..." she said solemnly.

Little did she know she was staring right at the moon

Little did she know, how that alone had made him feel

She was his best friend, who cared for him no matter what...

He smiled, and wiped his eyes

"Thanks, Toph" he said...

She smiled.

Little did he know though,

He would someday stare into her eyes

And see much more than a pale jade

And little did she know

That would be the day

She would never feel blind again...


Well, I said it was a bit fluffy...but I made it out of boredom, but also to fill in the time for a potential upcoming fanfic (if I can find time). This was my first ATLA fanfic, so I'd really appreciate reviews...critisism welcome.

Don't own anything. I wish I did, this show rocks.
