A/N- Thanks to all my wonderful reviewers (who are totally awesome) you all get chapter two. And I did forget to metion that Aang and Toph are 14, not 12. Oops, my bad. Sorry. That would make Katara 16, Sokka 18, and so on and so forth. Once again, sorry to confuse you.

Enjoy!

Aang's POV

"Toph, please, tell me what's wrong," I say to her quietly.

She whimpers quietly, like she would rather not.

"Toph, I can't help you unless you tell me what's wrong."

She doesn't say anything, just buries herself deeper in my chest.

I held her tighter. She doesn't seem to understand that I'm just trying to help her. Maybe she can't understand. I have to keep trying.

"Toph, did someone hurt you?" I ask her.

I could feel her slightly nod against my chest. This must be bad. Usually if I were to ask her that, she automatically says she's fine.

"Who was it? What did they do to you?" I ask her hastily.

"I… I don't know who it was Aang," she says to me so quietly I have to strain my ears to hear her.

"What did they do to you?"

Toph tenses up and shakes her head. I can feel tears staining my shirt.

Then something seemed to click. Her being afraid of me, her crying, her hiding.

"Oh my god. Toph, did some guy rape you?"

Tears freely fell from my eyes as she erupted into more sobs. I can't believe it. Toph got raped, and I can't do anything to help her.

&&&&&

It's been a few days since I found out Toph was raped. I still can't believe it. If I ever find out who did that to her, I'm going to kill him. I don't care that I'm suppose to be a monk.

She's gotten a lot better though. She came out of her tent yesterday. I guess that's a good thing, but I'm not so sure. She's so jumpy, so not Toph-like. She has a far away look in her eyes, like she's not even there. I'm trying to help her as best I can, and sometimes I think I'm helping. But at other times, I think I'm making the situation worse. I can tell she doesn't fully trust me. But I'm not blaming her, it's not her.

Right now, Toph looks so sad, just sitting there by herself. I go up to her and wrap my arms around her and she starts silently crying into my chest. I'm glad Sokka and Katara left to go to a nearby town, or they would know something's wrong.

"Shhh... it'll be okay Toph. Nothing's going to hurt you ever again. I promise," I say to her soothingly.

She turns her head up towards me, her blind eyes piercing through mine. "But how do you know that? What if he comes back? I'm so scared that he will," she asks me in a shaky voice.

At her words, I feel slightly proud of her for being able to tell me that she's scared, but it also hurts because of why she's abandoned her rough exteriour.

"Because I'm going to be there for you. And who's going to mess with the all powerful Avatar?"

The sides of her mouth turn up in a slight smile. It's the first time she's smiled in days.

"Your smile is really pretty," I told her quietly.

She smiles just a little more at my words. I can see tears on the brink of falling from her eyes, but I think they're from happiness, not being sad.

She hugs me, and I pull her close to me. "Thank you Aang. I'd never be able to get through this if it wasn't for you."

A/N- AAHHH!! I'm a horrible person for doing that to Toph! Oh well. This was so hard for me to write, it actually made me cry.

Same as last time people, 5 reviews and then you get the next chapter.

Thanks for reading!
