Chapter 7
I had seen Katara and Lee walk off into the Beifong gardens. I knew this wasn't good. Then I stopped. Katara was 18. She could take care of herself. But this was Toph's fiancé Katara was going on a romantic walk under the moonlight with. That Lee guy was no good. I had to find them. Then I spotted them. They were standing side by side, looking at the moon with, well, moony eyes. "What's happening?" hissed Toph. I tried to hear what those two were talking about.
"So your brother kept telling you this Jet guy was no good and you didn't believe him?"
"I know! I wished I'd listened earlier. Jet broke my heart, Lee."
I didn't need to hear this. It was boring and aggravating. It was mushy "in love" talk. I couldn't imagine why she fell for him. That's when I heard the next bit of the conversation. "Katara." Said Lee, the Airhead. "I want to be honest. I'm not in love with Toph. I really love you." I could have been sick right there. Toph stuck out her tongue in disgust. You know what? Katara fell for it and kissed him. Kissed 'im like that! I was so angry I couldn't move. Toph was even angrier. Her face was red. "I'll kill him." I had to hold onto her so she couldn't hit him. They went on walking away from us, hand in hand. "You can't kill him." I growled through clenched teeth. "I'm going to kill him first."
