AN:
Let me start this by apologizing for being late. Sorry boh that. Things...are going on in my life. But ayyy, longer chapter! :D Anyway, I asked you guys what were your opinions on turning this into a M rated fic. Only one person replied and he told me he wouldn't mind it. So yeah. Steamy scenes in sight. REAL steamy. You were warned. If you still get grounded, don't read this. Consider this chapter as a test though, I'm kind of scared you guys will think this is too much :| Remember, I don't have much experience at this, so any advice is appreciated :)
Toph appearance. Yeah. Cool. She's 15 BTW.
All I Had
Ch.4
'Maybe it s okay to be lost in your backyard
Okay to wonder what's in the dark
Lonely little terrified hearts
Are we all just fakin it?'
Kaskade & Felix Cartal - Fakin' It (ft. Ofelia K)
During the next few days, the awkwardness between them both could be cut with a knife. They didn't talk like they used to, even though before they could confide the deepest of their secrets to each other. They continued to hang out around the same class group, so they were still always relatively close anyway. During the times when the group was together, they sometimes caught each others eyes trying to figure out what they were after the cinema incident. Sometimes they held each other's gaze for as long as they dared, before completely averting their looks. If there was a definition for 'friends with benefits', they were definitely fitting it.
Katara was desperately looking for a solution for her boy problem. Unfortunately for her, she seemed to have used all her capacity that day at the cinema, and nothing would come up on her head. So she did the only thing she could think of. To ask Suki for her holy advice.
Suki was throwing the last of her punches on her daily training when her phone ringed. 'Hello?'
'Hey Suki.' Katara said, unenthusiastically.
'What's up? You sound a little..down.' she said, dreading what was to be said. She always had to come up with something for Katara's issues. Katara seemed to adopt a estrategy of 'evade and avoid' with her problems.
'I have...boy problems.' Katara admitted.
She heard Suki sighing at the other end of the line.
'Who is it?'
'Who do you think it is? I told you about it the other day!' Katara cried.
'Oh..right. Damn short memory' she scratched her head.
'What do I do? Things are intensely awkward between us right now! What if he thinks I'm weird now? What if he doesn't want to talk to me anymore!?' What if-' Katara said, histerically.
'KATARA! Calm the fuck down, I have a plan.' Suki exclaimed.
'Thank goodness!' Katara said, gladly.
Suki explained her plan thoroughly and Katara had to admit, it was almost flawless. Almost.
Aang walked out of the convenience store near his house. He felt his phone vibrate and took it out of his pocket.
4:49 PM Sokka: Yo dude - italic 4:49 PM Aang: Sup - italic 4:50 PM Sokka: Party tonight. Toph's house. You up? - italic Aang had met Toph just the day before. His arm was still sore from her 'affectionate punches'. He took a minute to think about it. 4:51 PM Aang: I dunno dude, I don't really know enough people to go to a party.
4:51 PM Sokka: Relax man, it's just gonna be us and some of her friends, I'll introduce you.
4:52 PM Aang: K dude you got me. Time?
4:52 PM Sokka: 9 PM. Don't be late. Toph can be a bitch.
4:53 PM Aang: See you there.
Later that day Aang was having a crisis of indecision. He forgot to ask Sokka if his sister would be at the party and now he wouldn't answer his phone.
"Shit shit shit, this is so messed up!" he thought bitterly while he browsed his clothes for something decent.
He decided to go for a simple flat white t-shirt, jeans and a laceless shoe.
He hopped in his Subaru, not knowing if he would rather have her at the party and fix things right there or not have her there and continue to give the mutual silent treatment.
Ten minutes later he was at Toph's doorstep. After a few moments daydreaming about places he would rather be at that moment (including hiding under the covers of his bed listening to his Daft Punk playlist)
he got out of the car and rang the fancy bell.
'Is this really necessary?' Katara asked as Suki applied some mascara and some kind of 'good girl gone bad' eyeliner.
'Do you want Aang to talk to you again?' Suki challenged.
'Well...yeah..' Katara answered.
'Then you gotta look good for tonight.' she said, now in the process of applying a skin colored lipstick on Katara.
'Well I don't wanna look like a slut!' she cried.
'Honey, you're not looking like a slut, just..sexy. I think he'll like it.' Suki said, observing she did on her friend, pretty satisfied with it. 'Actually I just know -italic- he'll like it' she said, smirking.
'Alright, now get your ass over here, we gotta pick clothes now.'
Suki said, walking towards Katara's dresser.
Katara just sighed and followed her, getting up from the creaky chair.
She stared at Suki as she took clothes out of her dresser at an impressing rate. Mixed with the sound of the clothes hitting the wooden floor was Suki's 'no,no,no,' mantra.
'Hmmm, I knew I would find something naughty.' Suki said, eyeing the piece of garment and then Katara's body repeatedly.
'Suki, no offense, but I'm not using THAT.' she said, grimacing.
'Oh, yes you are, girl! Now get in there and change, we're gonna be late' Suki said, shoving Katara in the bathroom.
Katara buffed and carefully put on Suki's chosen clothing.
A few minutes later Katara walked out the bathroom, wearing a black dress that went to her mid thighs.
'This is so slutty.' Katara deadpanned.
'Sweetie, I already told you, there's a difference between slutty and sexy. You're the latter right now by the way.' Suki checked her phone for the time and gasped. 'Damnit, let's go, we're already late!' she said, panicking.
'Wait! Should I wear the boot or high heels?' Katara called after her, still barefoot.
'Heels! They'll emphasize your ass!' Suki yelled from downstairs.
Katara rolled her eyes and put on her also black heels. She looked at the mirror and concluded that besides looking like some fake goth girl, even she had to agree with Suki. She felt sexy.
She walked past Sokka's door expecting him not to notice what she was wearing. It was a failed attempt, though, because soon he was screaming after her.
'Katara! What the hell is that?'
She looked around her, pretending not to know what he was talking about.
'What?' she asked.
'You are not going out dressed like that!' he said, grimacing.
'Tell that to Suki, she helped me out with this.' Katara said nonchalantly.
'Suki set you up with that?' Sokka had a look of dismay on his face, knowing that he couldn't ruin Suki's ideas. She could be an amazing blackmailer.
'Yes, so unless you got some kind of ultra secret information about her I suggest you just leave me be.' Katara said, turning on her heels.
'Girls.' he grumbled.
'Sup Twinkles. So Sokka really did convince you to come. I'm impressed' Toph greeted Aang at the door, thoughtfully scratching her nonexistent beard at her chin.
'Apparently so.' he said, chuckling at her antics.
'Come on, don't just stand there, now that there's someone older here we can get the party started.' she said, pulling him inside by his shirt.
'Jesus, Toph, this is a freaking mansion.' he said, marveled by the hugeness of her house.
'It's pretty neat. Just don't hang around the northeastern side of the house, there's some pretty creepy shit there. Don't go shit your pants.' she said, smirking.
'Yep. Not weird at all.' Aang thought, lifting an eyebrow at her.
'Come on, let me introduce you to my personal drink provider, Jeeves.'
They weaved through all the people in the main room and reached the bar (which Aang realized was the only one he had seen inside a house) and Toph introduced him to a tall man dressed in a suit and using way too much fixing gel on his hair.
'Uh, Toph, aren't you a little too young to be drinking?' Aang asked, confused.
'Bullshit. Kids younger than me drink since the 20s, why stop now?'
'Can't argue with that.' Aang said, furrowing his brows.
Just as he said that, he heard a soft voice coming from his left, one that he recognized immediately.
'Hey guys.'
Aang looked in the direction of her voice and felt his eyes widening, partly because she, indeed, had gone to the party, and partly because of how she looked. He had seen some pretty girls in his life, Katara one of them. Nothing like the absolute beauty in front of him. The vibes she was sending at the moment were also something from another wor 'Sugar Queen! You made it! Won't be a party pooper this time right?' Toph's sneer was only met with a nasty look from Katara, who stared at her until she realized she wouldn't see it anyways.
Toph then stepped aside, apparently expecting Aang and Katara to greet each other, which never happened, considering the where both very interested at looking at the ground. 'Alright, what's up with you two? I'm sensing some awkward shit here.' she said.
That was when Suki stepped in, grabbing Toph's arm and pulling her to a small room which looked like an office.
'Hey! Who is it? Stop that!' Toph cried.
'Shhh! I need you to be quiet for just a minute.' Suki silenced her.
'What's going on? I was sensing an awkward moment coming up from those two and I wanted to witness it!' Toph said, exasperated.
'That's exactly what I needed to tell you about. These two had a, quote, "accidental" make out session last monday at the cinema. I'm trying to hook them up to stop messing up the group's dynamics. These two have been impossible around each other.' Suki explained.
'And how do you intend to do that, genius?' Toph mocked.
'Well, you must have seen part one of my plan, which are her clothes,' Suki said.
Toph just stared at her with a blank face.
'Oh, right. Well, she's looking hot, that's all I can say.' Suki described.
'Right. How about part two?' Toph asked.
'Drunkness! I left those two in front of the bar, and they're both teenagers, so eventually they'll drink something. There's just one thing preventing my plan from being flawless. These two are too responsible to drink anything stronger than a beer or punch, so I need you to help me here and convince then to drink a little vodka or tequila or whatever. That'll get them to be a little bolder.' Suki said.
'Uhuh. But what do I win with this?' Toph asked, deadpanning.
'You can "watch" Sokka get pissed when they start making out in the middle of the room.' Suki said enthusiastically.
'Alright, I'm in. So how should I get them to drink some heavy stuff?' 'Well, here's the deal...'
Meanwhile, Aang and Katara seemed to finally decide to have some kind of interaction with each other.
'Hey.' he said.
'Hey.'
'Y-you look good.'
'Thanks.' she said, noticing how he was trying to furtively sneak a look at her body. She stiffled her laugh when his eyes changed to a particular glassy look.
They stood there for a while, Katara pulling at her hair and Aang shuffling his shoes.
'So, should we sit?' she asked.
'Right. Let's do that.' he said, pulling two stools for them.
'Nice party, right?' Aang observed, trying to divert the subject of the conversation from themselves.
'Yeah, Toph's parents must be the second richest in town.'
'Second? Who the hell can be richer than this? They have golden curtains!' he said, pointing behind her.
'Yeah, I know it's hard to believe, but the Striders are richer than the Bei Fongs. They own most of the sport clubs in county.' she said.
'The Striders?' he asked.
'Yeah. Their son is actually on your class. Zuko? Ring a bell?'
He took a moment to recall his classmate's names, but didn't recall any "Zuko".
'Nope. I'd actually rather hang around with you than my classmates, they're mostly dicks.' he said.
She didn't respond, but her flaring cheeks spoke all she was feeling at that moment.
Before she could get more flustered though, Toph approached them, two drinks in hand.
'Guys! You gotta try out this drink, it's really neat!' she said, stuffing the drinks in their hands.
They both looked at their drinks, which was green with two lemons on the border of the cup, them back at Toph, and them took a sip.
'Uhmm, it's actually really good Toph! What's it called?' Aang asked.
'It's called hand grenades. Don't worry, that thing has less alcohol than Ices. You can get some more with Jeeves.' she said,
'Jeeves?' Katara asked Aang after Toph had left to greet some new guests.
'Her butler and, as she explained, "personal drink provider".' he said.
'Oh.' The next few minutes included a lot of drinking, and, as a result, they were getting increasingly flirty.
Thirty minutes later, their inhibitions had completely vanished, the conversation was much bolder than usual and almost entirely focused on flirts.
'Youzz know that dress looks super se-xy on you roight?' Aang had complimented her. He apparently automatically aquired a british accent when drunk.
'Szzuki told me so, but it'z always good to hear that from a boy. Unless he'z an asshole, that is.' she said.
'Well you don't think I'm an asshole roight?' he asked, lifting an eyebrow, a smirk on his face.
'No, I think you're cute actually.' she said, bopping him lightly on the nose.
'Is that right?' he said, leaning his face towards hers.
'Yeah, that is.' she said, a little breathless.
When he was an inch from her face, he stopped, trying to focus on her ocean eyes with his own blurry ones. He then leaned a little further, brushing his lips across her jaw. She gasped and felt a shiver on her spine. She suddenly couldn't hold it in anymore. She cupped his face and attached her mouth to his, giving him the most epic kiss she could muster.
She wrapped her arms around his neck, one hand brushing his hair. He responded by jumping down from his stool and holding her hips. She now had a height advantage that allowed her to wrap her legs around his waist. The alcohol in their veins silenced all sounds around them, and disabled their awareness that they were now in a full makeout session in a room full of people.
'Suki! Suki! You gotta see this!' Toph discreetly whispered to her.
'What's up?' Suki asked.
Toph then pointed behind her, and Suki turned to see what she was talking about.
There, at the bar stools, she spotted Aang and Katara engaged in 'activities', as Sokka would say, seemingly ignoring the cat calls around them.
'Damn. That was fast. These two must have a wicked chemistry or some really low tolerance to alcohol. Okay, I told Sokka to go buy some more beer, but the should be back soon. We need to get them somewhere private. You do have a extra room, right?' Suki said.
'Yeah, I do, but don't you think that's dangerous? They're drunk and probably horny, you know where that's going.' Toph said.
'Don't worry I equipped Katara with what she needs when she wasn't looking. I probably put it on her back pocket.' 'What do you-? Oh. Oooooh.' Toph said, widening her eyes. 'Suki, don't you think that's going a little too far? I mean, they are-itallic drunk, they probably won't remember much in the morning.'
'Well, then let's pray to the gods that they don't go at it.' Suki said.
'What about Sokka? He won't be too happy when he hears about this.' Toph warned.
'Don't worry about Sokka. I'll deal with him.' she said, smiling wickedly. 'Now, let's get these two a room already before they shame their families.'
Toph and her approached the center of attention of the party, Suki pulling Katara by her arm and Toph pulling Aang by his ear.
'Ow! Whazzup with this shit?' Aang cursed, too drunk to realize what was going on.
'We're getting you both a room so you can have some much needed privacy.' Suki explained.
They climbed the stairs and "led" them to the last of the guest rooms, which included a king size bed.
Toph and Suki shoved them both inside.
'Have fun!' Suki said, snickering.
Aang looked at Katara, confused, and examined the room they were in.
'I don't really know what that was 'bout, but this is a bloody good room.' he said.
Katara just giggled as Aang walked around the room.
'Look at this! They even have a massage armchair!' he said, amazed.
He sat on it and turned on the 'kneading' mode.
Katara just watched as he closed his eyes and enjoyed the feeling.
She bit her lip, took off her heels and made a decision.
Aang was in the seventh heaven when he felt a weight on his his thighs and crotch.
He opened his eyes and came face to face to Katara, who was now sitting on his lap and moving her hips.
'Jesus, Katara, you're gonna make me go crazy..' he said, out of air.
She leaned in, capturing the milky flesh of his neck in her teeth, softly nibbling his skin.
She cupped his jaw with one hand, the other lost in his hair.
He closed his eyes again, lost in some kind of pleasure haven.
She continued her caresses until he felt like returning the favor. He gently pushed her away from him, claiming her mouth in a heated kiss.
He ran a hand through her thigh, pushing her dress higher. The other one was currently occupied, holding her face still.
He turned his lips' attention to her ear, lightly biting her ear lobe, before going lower, kissing his way along her neck. He unknowingly reached a sensitive spot on her neck and she let out a tiny moan, a beautiful sound he wanted to hear again. In the midst of all the kissing, he barely registered the wetness that had pooled on his lap.
She pushed at his shirt and they separated momentaneously so she could take it off. He continued his exploration of her neck while she ran her hands along his chest. She was surprised to discover that it was actually kind of firm, apparently he was a little toned, something she couldn't notice when he had a shirt on.
The hand stuck at her hair moved and fumbled with the opening of her dress. He wasn't really familiar with the knots of the dress, so after a few failed attempts, she brought her hands back and snapped it open, getting up to let if fall.
At that moment, Katara realized the bulge protuding at his jeans. 'What's that Aang?'
'What's what?' he asked, confused.
'This.' she said, running her foot along his erection, sending him a bedroom-eyed look.
"Oh my freaking god," he thought, throwing his head back. "This girl is gonna be the death of me."
'You know what that is.' he said.
'Then, should I take care of it?' she suggested.
'Only if you want to.' he said, a little dazed.
She got on her knees and tried to open his jeans' zipper. At that moment, though, the alcohol in their blood lost a bit of effect and he grabbed her hand.
'Wait!' he said.
'What's wrong?'
'Are you really sure you want to do this? You don't have to, we could stop here.'
'Aang, honestly, I wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't someone I liked. And I wanna know what it feels like.' she said, confidently.
'Well, if you insist.' he said, dropping her hand.
She pushed his pants down along with his black boxers and marveled at the sight. She had heard girls talk about it, but she had never seen one in person. She continued staring at it from different angles, which caused Aang to grow increasingly red.
'Is-is there something wrong with it?' he asked, nervously.
'No, it's just..I had never seen one before.' she said.
'Oh.'
She reached forward and enveloped it with her hand. It was softer than she imagined. She gave it a tentative stroke and he let out a gasp.
'Was that good?' she asked.
'Yes. Keep doing it.'
She slowly stroked it from tip to base, watching as the skin went up and down. She had, as every teenager, watched a little bit of porn, so she experimented with other techniques.
She stuck her tongue out and licked his shaft. He moaned loudly at that, feeling like he would explode any second.
Satisfied with her reaction, she licked around the head a few times before taking a bit of it into her mouth. The taste wasn't exactly what she expected, but she found it wasn't exactly bad either.
After another round of licking, she took as much as she could into her mouth. She gagged and took it out of her mouth, coughing.
'You alright?' Aang somehow managed to ask.
'Yeah, I just underestimated the size.' she said.
After recovering her breath, she took him in her mouth again and started to bob her head. After a few seconds, though, Aang let out a painful cry.
'Aggh! Katara! Teeth! Teeth!' he yelled.
'Zorry!' she apologized.
She continued to bob her head, now being careful not to hurt him. She added her tongue in, licking around his shaft.
It didn't take long for Aang to feel that familiar burst of energy on his crotch and he pushed her back.
'Wha-?'
'I'm almost there, just keep stroking it, fast.' he said.
She did as she was told and soon he unloaded, his seed streaming over her fingers and falling on his abdomen.
He sat back at the chair afterwards, completely exhausted. After a few moments of trying to control his breathing, he looked at her and found that she was staring at him, too.
'Sooo, what do you usually do know?' she asked, pointing to the mess at her hand and his chest with her head.
'Oh. Wait a sec, I'll be back.' he replied, getting up and entering the bathroom.
He walked out a few seconds later with a box of Kleenex.
'Here, take this.' he said, handing her a bunch while he wiped his chest and zipped up his pants.
He grabbed his shirt and threw it over his shoulder, sitting back at the chair. She put her dress back on and turned to him. He was looking at her, intently.
'What?' she asked, turning her head to the side.
'You are so pretty it's not even fair to the other girls.'
'Thanks.' she said, cheeks flushed.
She walked towards him and sat back at his lap. He wrapped his arms tightly around her and pulled her close. She took advantage and buried her head on the crook of his neck.
He broke the silence after a few long moments.
'This is all so sudden.' he sighed.
'I know.' she said, her voice muffled.
'Do we know what we are to each other now?'
'I don't think so, but I think at least for now we shouldn't really define it.' she nuzzled his neck.
'Yeah, I guess you're right. Labels ruin things, right?'
'Right, Holmes.' she smirked.
'Holmes?' he questioned.
'You turn into a brit when you're drunk.'
'I do? Wow. Copacetic.' he said, grinning lopsidedly.
He felt her smiling against his skin before her breathing evened out, and he concluded she was fast asleep. He soon joined her.
And that's how Sokka found them in the morning.
