So, next chapter is gonna be "The King Of Omashu." (: please review. & I am gonna have a important A/N at the end of this chapter so please read it after you're done with this chapter.
Chapter four: The truth is out
Keiko's P.O.V
I haven't talked to Sokka since we left Kyoshi Island. I was afraid, truthfully. Afraid of getting hurt. I like Sokka, a lot. And, I don't think he likes me the same way.
Right now, we had landed on a small island where we are camping for the night. I keeled down next to the fire wood Aang had collected and shot a small blast of fire at it, creating our camp fire.
I just sat there, staring at the fire, thinking.
After a little while, I felt a presence come up behind me. "Keiko? You alright?" Katara's motherly voice rang through my ears. I just shrugged, not looking away from the fire. I heard her sigh and then soon she was sitting across from me. "You like Sokka, don't you?"
My head shot up and my eyes went from the fire to her. "H-How.. how did you know?" I questioned her in shock.
She rolled her eyes. "It's obvious. You blush when ever you see him looking at you or he touches you, you stare at him without knowing it sometimes, whenever you are scared you go to him, you show off around him, and you pick on him. All the signs he also shows." She smiled at me.
"You think he likes me?" I asked her, hope rising up inside of me.
"No. I don't think." My face fell. "I know." I grinned and I launched my self over the fire and to her, giving her a tight hug. She giggled and hugged me back.
"Thanks Katara." I said as I pulled away and stood up from the ground.
"No problem. Now, go talk to him. He's really upset because he thinks you're mad." I nodded and ran to Sokka who was setting up his tent with a sour look on his face.
"Uh, Sokka?" He turned around when he heard my voice. His face looked happy for a moment before it went to angry.
"Oh so now you're talking to me?" He snapped and I frowned, pain shooting through my heart. He walked over to the other side of the tent and finished putting it up.
"Sokka, listen I-"
"No. You listen." He interrupted and my eyes widened at this, he had never spoken to any of us like that before. "It's been 2 days since we left Kyoshi and you have not said one. Single. Word to me! I mean, you've barely even looked at me! Was it something I said? I did? Because honestly, I can't remember anything happening between us that would you make you so upset to just shun me out of your life!" He yelled, sounding really hurt. He faced away from me, his fists clenched as he stared at nothing.
"I saw Suki kiss you..." My voice was soft, quiet, pained. He is the first guy I have ever liked this much. I hated seeing another girl getting to touch him and kiss him.
His fists unclenched, but he didn't look at me as he spoke, "Really?"
"Really. And.. it really hurt to see that."
"Why?" He asked as he turned around, his blue eyes locked into mine.
My head hung low as I gulped, wrapping my arms around myself. "Ever since we started our journey I have liked you. And not like I like Aang, I like like you. You just seemed more special then any other guy I have met. You're sweet, funny, caring, cute, courageous, gentle, loyal, smart... and the first guy that has treated me like an actual human being. When I was younger, all the guys that had a "crush" on me, only liked me because I was rich. Then, other people hated me because I was fire nation. But you, you ignore all the extra stuff. You only pay attention to who I really am. A girl who all she really wants is a family and people to love her. So.. when we almost kissed at the Southern Air Temple.. I thought you shared the same feelings that I do. But, then you spent a lot of time with Suki and she kissed your cheek..I just-" Sokka's lips crushed onto mine, cutting me off from my rambling.
I melted into him as I began to kiss him back. His arms snaked around my waist and held me closer to to him as my arms flew up to wrap around his neck. Our lips mounded together, all our emotions spilling out. I pulled back, our breathing heavy as he grinned at me. "I don't like, Suki. She is a good friend. I specifically told her after she kissed my cheek that I didn't like her like that. She understood right away, knowing I liked you. Apparently, it's pretty obvious." I giggled as I remembered me and Katara's conversation from earlier. "You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen. On the inside and out. I never thought a girl like you, a gorgeous, generous, tough princess, could like a boy like me, a boring, hard-headed, water tribe peasant."
I shook my head. "You're not boring. You can be hard-headed, but not boring." He smirked and I smiled. "And who cares if I'm royalty and you're not. I like you, for you. The fun, amazing, hot, water tribewarrior." His face lit up as he grinned hugely at my words.
"You think I'm hot?"
"Totally. But, don't let your ego get any bigger, okay?" We laughed as we held on to one another.
"Does this mean.. you know.. we're boyfriend and girlfriend now?" He asked me nervously as I lifted my head off his shoulder and gazed into his beautiful eyes.
"Only if that's okay with you." I told him softly, inching closer to his face.
He chuckled before putting his lips onto mine once again. "Trust me, It's okay with me." I smiled against his lips as we continued.
Before I knew it, I was laying on the ground of his his tent with him hovering over me as we made out. I cupped his face in my hands as I licked his bottom lip, making him groan slightly. He parted my lips with his as his tongue dived into my mouth. We both moaned at the same time as our tongues danced around with each other. I felt his hands venture down the sides of my body. I gasped slightly as he began to slide a hand inside of my shirt, stroking my stomach.
"Keiko? Sokka?"
Both of us froze before scrambling away from each other and acting natural. I grabbed Sokka's map and laid it out in front of us. When Aang popped his head inside the tent, all he saw was us pretending to discuss our journey.
"Uh.. what are you guys doing?" Aang asked, looking confused.
We turned around and and looked at him innocently. "Oh, hey, Aang! We're just looking at the map, talking about what we are doing next." I lied, smiling sweetly at him.
"Yep, that's all we're doing." Sokka added, sounding stupid. He really can't lie well..
Aang stared suspiciously at us for a few moments. "Well, okay. We're about to start dinner in a few. So, uh.. yeah. Bye." He left quickly, with a confused look on his face the whole time.
Both Sokka and I listened carefully to Aang's footsteps walking away before we looked at each other. A giggle escaped my lips as Sokka tackled me to the ground, kissing my lips as he chuckled. I wrapped my arms around him as we shared a passionate kiss before walking hand and hand to dinner.
Thank you, Katara.
Cute, right? :D I just love writing romantic scenes. This is a idea just came to my head and I wanted Keiko and Sokka to start dating, but trust me, there will be drama between them. Remember, this chapter was supposed to be short.
Okay, so I have a few questions for the series I need some opinions on.
Should Jet hit on Keiko when we get to the Jet episode?
I need help on the King of Omashu chapter that is next, what should happen?
So please review and help me out with these questions (: bye loves
