"Come on, Toph!" Keane called out to his new friend, who was still half asleep.
Toph rolled out of bed and walked out into the hallway. But then she remembered what Keane told her.
"Don't forget to get dressed tomorrow. And brush your hair. It looks like tumbleweed!" She ran back into her room and did what Keane told her. When she walked outside, Keane was already sitting on the wall waiting for her.
"What took you so long? I've been waiting for hours!" Keane said.
"I slept in! I hate waking up early!" Toph said, leaning up against a tall tree.
"Oh. So... what do we do now?" Keane asked. "Oh, I don't know." Toph said. "Hey... my older sister said she wanted to meet you. Want to go back to my house?" Keane asked.
"Why not? It'll be better than sitting around here." Toph said. She climbed up the wall, trying to sneak away unnoticed. Her parents didn't suspect a thing. Keane was already at his house, because it wasn't too far from Toph's house.
"Hey, Lana! I want you to meet someone!" Keane said, and his sister walked outside.
Toph was lying in the street, and she was excited to finally be outside of the prison she called home. Everyone was staring at Toph, because it was unusual for someone to lie down in the middle of the street, even if there were barely any people around. Keane's mother walked out to see what all the fuss was about.
"So Keane. This must be Toph. You know the one you can't stop talking about? The one you have a crush on?" Lana said. "Stop it, mom!" Keane was very annoyed.
"Oh, hush! And why is that girl laying in the middle of the road?" Keane's mother said.
"Mom, this is Toph. You know, my new friend?" Keane's family obviously knew about Toph.
"Toph... where have I heard that name before?" Keene's mother wondered out loud. She snapped her fingers. "You mean to tell me you're Toph Bei Fong? That Toph?" his mother asked, and Toph sat up in the middle of the street.
"Um... I think so. Toph! Come here for a second!" Keane yelled. Toph ran up to him.
"What? Am I in trouble? Are my parents here? Are they going to put me under house arrest?" Toph asked, worried that she would be in big trouble. And she heard her mom say something about her, and her mom's voice came from in Keane's house. So, she ran home, climbed the wall, and ran into her room. She made her bed and tried to make it look like she had been there all day. Then her parents walked into the house. They noticed that the house was unusually clean and Toph was no where to be found. They looked in her room, where she was finishing making her bed.
"Oh, hi! I didn't notice you come in." Toph said, trying to cover up the fact that she had snuck out.
"You are in big trouble young lady." her mom said, and Toph slunk down on her bed, wrinkling the neatly made blankets on her bed.
