Pain

Suki slammed her foot on his back. "Why aren't you talking to me?"

Sokka's hands were by his face pushing to make Suki retract her foot from his back. His face was inhaling the dirt on the ground, and his mouth was covered with little specks of brown, black, and gray pieces. "Note to self," Sokka thought, "Never do push-ups when Suki is upset."

"If you wanted to talk to me, why didn't you just say 'Hello' or 'Hey Sokka, can we talk?'"

"You KNOW that is not what I mean." Suki pushed harder against his back. "Why haven't you acknowledged me at all today?"

"I've been working out all morning. I haven't even seen you!"

"I was sitting in the kitchen when you came in to get your morning snack. Tell me that wasn't you who looked at me, and just scurried away like a little mouse."

Sokka squirmed. He was hoping she would forget that.

"What's going on Sokka? I know that I might have defeated you yesterday in our little match, but there is no way that effected you that much." Suki's brown eyes were staring at Sokka's back. It glistened with sweat, and was heaving up and down from Sokka's Lungs expanding. She took her foot off, and went to her knees. "Sokka, please just tell me what's wrong."

"There is nothing wrong Suki. I'm just a upset about yesterday. I had a rough night because I couldn't sleep. And now I'm just trying to make myself ready to fight anybody."

"You are an amazing warrior Sokka. You don't need to do this right now. The war is over. We are on vacation. For Kyoshi's sake, please just relax with the rest of us. Suki lightly put her fingers on Sokka's back. She moved her hand up and down pressing the tight muscles in his upper and lower back. "Just relax."

Sokka closed his eyes. He had dirt in his mouth, his breath had become shortened, and his body became tense in the lower regions. But he had no idea, all he could think about were the hands rubbing and pressing against his back.

"hmmghh" Sokka groaned.

Suki smiled. "Your welcome."

"Tha..anksss," Sokka was becoming lightheaded, and then it stopped.

"Now go wash yourself up for lunch. Katara made some soup." Suki patted his back, got up and left poor Sokka with more frustration, then he'd ever experienced in his entire life. His pride was hurt, he was in pain, and he was as horny as ever.
