Double date, sort of

Amaya didn't know how she had been pulled into this, wasn't this suppose to be Huojin's and Niu's first date so why was she and Jiayi attending. She could understand why the older brother wanted to be present, it was his baby sister but then she was more of a fourth wheel? Was that even real? The girl gave a sigh it would have been nice if she were there with someone who cared for her.

At that she stole a glance at her supposed date of the night. Too bad there was no such amorous emotions between them two. Unlike with the couple of the night, they had yet to take their eyes off of each other.

"You look lovely tonight," Huojin started once their main course arrived.

Niu blushed at the compliment, moving a strand of loose hair behind her ear. "Thank you… you look handsome yourself."

Amaya would have much liked to watch this from afar not form right beside them; there was no fun in that. It would be nice to get a compliment herself she thought letting out a sigh.

The evening went like that with exchanges of compliments between the fire and earth bender, small conversation between Amaya and Jiayi. She wasn't sure how it happened though before realizing that Niu and Huojin were gone, explaining they'd be taking a walk and never coming back.

"Where are they?" Jiayi asked voice laced with anger.

It didn't take a genius to know, Amaya thought leaning back against the tree. "I don't know…"

There was a pause before she managed with the next question. "What should we do now?"

There was a long pause. Her blue eyes never left the boy as he tightened and loosened his jaw. He was worried for his sister but she knew Niu was in great hands… well, as great as it could be. Those thoughts weren't allowed to stray too far. She even nearly missed his suggestion.

"Sorry, what?"

Jiayi let out a gruff sigh, was that a blush she saw? "How about… sex?"

It took her a moment to understand his suggestion before freezing in place, red as a tomato. A shame she would have loved to do this on better terms but had already nodded and was following the boy like some lost puppy.

This wasn't what she had expected at all.
