Separation
Chapter 2: Love Alight
Aang gasped aloud as a boulder flew towards him. He quickly dodged and hurled a rock at Toph. She dodged nimbly and smiled.
"Not bad Twinkletoes." She praised. "That enough for today, tomorrow well work on your stance again." "Thanks Toph." Aang smiled and whipped his brow.
They had been practicing for at least three hours on his dodging. Toph nodded and walked away towards Sokka. Aang watched her go. She was fumbling and from the looks of it, she was blushing.
She stared at Sokka who was cooking a fish he had surprisingly caught earlier.
Katara suddenly jumped out of the brush. "Aang!" she squeaked. "What?" he walked over to her. She seemed restless and jumpy. "Come! You've GOT to see this!!" she grabbed his arm and without waiting lunged back into the woods. Aang had a hard time keeping up with her as she dragged him along. "Katara!" Aang yelped as a branch whacked his face, "Where are we going!?"
"You'll see." She was blushing madly as she raced on.
Katara led him over a stream and stopped. She was breathing heavily but never lost that gleam in her eye. "Follow me." She walked down the stream and into a clearing. Aang gasped. There was a field of green grass and flowers of reds, yellows, and whites dotted the green carpet. The stream ran fully through the field and down a ledge making a small waterfall.
"It's beautiful." Aang whispered and walked forward. Katara followed beaming. "I knew you'd love it." She smiled.
Aang turned around, true love in his eyes. "I love you Katara." He whispered. She pulled him into a tight embrace. Katara pulled away looking into Aang's stormy eyes and slowly leaned forward but stopped a few seconds away from his face. Aang closed the space that separated their faces and kissed her lightly. He felt her kiss back.
It seemed like ages until Katara pulled away blushing madly and sat down. "Aang, we shouldn't be doing this. What's Sokka going to say if he finds out?"
"Katara," Aang soothed as he sat down next to her. "He won't find out." She stared at him, a mix of shallow emotions in her eyes. "How?" she twisted her body around. "Just act as we always have?" Her eyes were pleading. "Well?" Aang rubbed the back of his head. "Yes?" Katara shook her head and sighed. "No."
A/N: Another short chapter. Hope ya liked it! Did I make them kiss too soon? If anyone wants me to revise it just tell me. Next Chapter coming soon!
