I walked down the hall to my locker. Toph was standing there just looking at me.
"What's with you? She asked.
"Nothing."
"Whatever, your just staring into space for no reason and looking dazed."
"Well, fine if you must no it's a guy."
"Of course it is, it always is. So what's this guys name?"
"It's Aang."
"Oh that kid, the teacher introduced him in class."
"Isn't he cute? I asked excitedly.
"I don't know! I'm blind!"
"Oh right sorry."
We walked on to our next class as the bell rang. Then someone sat next to me.
"Ah. You again," said a familiar voice.
I turned to see Aang smiling at me.
"Oh yes me again. You must to lucky," I smiled.
"I must be," he said laughing.
Class started and I faced forward. Wow, he has the most beautiful eyes and the cutest laugh , I thought. The rest of the day seemed to go by fast and the next thing I knew the final bell rang. I got all my stuff together and Aang, who was sitting in front of me turned to face me.
"See you tomorrow," he said in a sweet voice.
"Ya. Tomorrow," I said happily.
Then he smiled and left. I went outside to meet Sokka who was standing next to his car talking to Suki, his girlfriend.
"Hey Suki!"I said.
"Oh hey Katara, well I have to go see you later Sokka," she said as she started to leave.
Sokka kissed her on the cheek and got in the car.
"So how was your first day?" Sokka asked.
"Pretty boring really. How was yours?"
"Oh the same. Nothing really to do on the first day."
"Ya, " I replied.
The next day seemed to come fast. I went to my locker where, as usual, Toph was standing.
"Hey, after school you want to go see a movie?"
"Oh sure!"
"Be sure to invite Aang," she said smiling turning away.
"Wait, what? Toph!" I yelled after her.
I went to P.E. and sat by Aang. Just ask him Katara, Do it the worst thing he can say is no. Class started and I was still trying to talk myself into it. The bell rang and I quickly went out the door. Toph was standing outside waiting for me.
"So did you ask him?" she asked.
"Uh. No." I confessed.
Just then Aang was walking out the door.
"Hey Aang!"Toph said
"Hey, Toph," he replied.
"You want to go to the movies with Toph and me after-school?" I blurted out.
"Sure I'd love to! Well see ya afterschool," he said smiling.
I let out a breathe of relief. He said yes. Thank god. Now I had something to look forward to. I was so happy and I smiled the rest of the day. Finally, the final bell rang.
"Katara don't forget to tell Sokka," Toph reminded me.
Oh no.
