Pure As Rain
The war was over. It was finally finished. And Aang could now be with the one he loved the most. And that one was Toph…
They had admitted their feelings for each other soon after Aang's near-death experience, and they've been inseparable ever since.
At that moment, it was just Aang and Toph, alone together to spend the day with each other.
"Come on Toph, it's not that hard," Aang said from the small lake he was in that was in the middle of a forest clearing.
Aang was teaching Toph how to swim now because he didn't want another Serpent's Pass incident to happen again.
"No. You know what, I can deal with drowning," said Toph because she was afraid of the water.
"But I can't deal with you drowning!" Aang exclaimed.
Toph sighed in defeat. "Fine, but you're going to have to lead me to the water, because I don't know where it is," she said.
"Okay," Aang said, getting out of the water and walking over to her. He wrapped his arms around her shoulders and walked her to the water. He could feel her tensing up in his arms, so he started talking to her.
"It's okay Toph, I won't let anything bad happen to you," he whispered in her ear.
At his words, she seemed to relax, just a little. She let herself be guided to the water, but when her feet started to get wet, she froze.
"It'll be alright Toph. I promise," he said, sealing his promise by kissing her under her ear.
But with each step, she got more nervous. Aang was starting to get worried. What if she had a nervous break-down? He wanted her to understand that he was never going to let anything bad happen to her, but if she didn't learn this, she could get into some kind of trouble someday.
Suddenly, she stopped walking. He started to get scared that something was wrong. But then he realized she was just getting used to the water.
"It's alright. Just take your time," he told her.
He started taking her in more till it was at their waist. He figured that was enough for now. She shouldn't have to brave it all at once; she should be able to take her time.
"Are we going to keep going?" she asked warily.
"Not unless you want to Toph. You shouldn't have to do it all at once," he said kindly.
She turned around in his arms so she was facing him. She had a small smile on her lips as she hugged him. He hugged back. They stayed their like that for a while, Toph's head resting on Aang's bare chest and his arms holding her close to him, until they felt light rain drops hitting them.
"We should get out now," Aang said quietly.
He guided her out of the water and he dried them off slightly with Airbending. They dressed in their normal clothes again and went under a large tree to avoid most of the rain.
Aang sat cross-legged while Toph sat in his lap, one arm around his shoulders, leaning her head on him. She reached out her other hand and he grasped it in his, giving it a squeeze. He kissed her on the forehead.
Suddenly, she turned her head up to him, 'looking' straight into his eyes.
"Thanks Aang," she said sincerely.
He leaned in and kissed her gently on the lips. He felt a huge spark go through him.
"Toph, I'll go anything for you," he said.
His free arm wrapped around her shoulders and pulled her as close as he could without hurting her as he closed his eyes. They sat there, just listening the gentle rain beating down on the ground and wished this moment could last forever.
