B is for Brains
People don't give me enough credit. I'm constantly known as the idiot or stupid water tribe peasant. I'm hardly ever taken seriously. I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a genius, but I'm not stupid. Especially when it's right in front of me, a good example would be my sister and the scumbag Fire Nation brat.
They probably thought that no one would notice them sneaking off together. Thought that they were pretty clever leaving camp with separate excuses. In all truthfulness I didn't really suspect anything until one day when I followed my sister into the woods, I'd forgotten to ask her to fix my pants. I headed off in the direction I thought that she'd gone; I stumbled around in the dark until I heard her voice. I wondered why she was talking to herself until I heard the voice of the ex-prince.
I was now close to panic and tried to hurry to the spot where they were standing. When I got close I stopped and hid behind some bushes, and focused on their words. Some small part of my brain told me to wait, that perhaps they were just gathering more wood.
"I don't think anybody followed me." I barely was able to stifle my snort at my baby sister's words.
"Good. It would be horrible to be caught now," was the deeper voiced party's response.
"I agree, now what was it that you wanted to tell me?"
I held my breath waiting for the explosion; it wasn't long in coming.
"I was going to tell you that I love you." I didn't wait for my sister's response. In all honestly I didn't want to know what it was. I quietly snuck back to camp, deciding to leave them alone. I kind of liked the thought of them being together. Plus the idea of them sneaking around reminded me of another couple. Only one half of said couple was the moon.
When they walked into camp a few weeks later, I wasn't surprised to see a purple necklace around my sister's neck. I stood in the background while everyone else congratulated them. I caught the fire bender's eye and winked. I as much as told him that I was on to their little game, I'm a lot smarter than they thought.
