Chapter 10: The Avatar's Virginity
When Toph said she wanted to get a drink, Aang never expected that they would end up in a bar. The bar, was mostly empty aside from a group of rowdy middle aged women who had invited Toph to sit with them. So Aang sat alone while he quietly sipped his drink, with only the fortune balloon to keep him company. While Toph sat in a booth with her 'new' friends and her 'new' favorite drink.
Toph slammed her now empty glass on the table, and started pounding her fist on the table. "BARKEEP! ANOTHER VIRGIN AVATAR ON THE DOUBLE!" she cried, as her older friends cheered. Aang briefly thought of stepping in, and telling Toph that she's had enough. That was until, he realized this was the first time he had been alone in days.
He looked over to see Toph and her group singing "Two lovers" over a batch of fresh Virgin Avatar's. 'She's okay' he reasoned, and ordered another drink, planning on enjoying his alone time. When the barkeep brought Aang his new drink, the monk beckoned him closer, and leaned forward. "Hey, there isn't any alcohol in those things, is there?" he quietly asked, glancing at Toph, who was now downing the drinks as fast as she could, while her friends shouted 'CHUG, CHUG, CHUG,'.
The man shook his head no, "Nope, just sugar and fruit juice."
Aang shrugged, "That's not so bad."
"...And cactus juice."
The expression on Aang's face froze, as time seem to slow down. Suddenly everything got really quiet, it was the calm before the storm. His pupils were dilated in fear, as cold sweat formed on his brow. 'Oh boy.'
"AANG!"
He cringed, as he slowly turned, and saw Toph waving him over, a mischievous hunger in her sightless eyes. His eyes then traveled down to the to all the empty glasses littering her table.
"GET YOUR FINE ASS OVER HERE!"
This wasn't good. Still like good (and obviously whipped) friend, Aang rushed to Toph's side. By the time he got there, the earthbender had drained yet another of the Avatar theme drinks. "Well it's about time you got here" she slurred, poking his chest with her finger. "And where's my kiss?" she asked, before closing her eyes and leaning forward, only to topple out of her seat and fall to the floor.
Aang helped Toph to her feet, while she laughed hysterically. "Whoops!" she giggled, sidling back into her seat.
"Toph I think you better take it easy" said a concerned Aang. "Why don't you have some tea instead. Better yet, let's go back to the inn and I can make you some."
Toph started to get up, but an immediate cry of protest arose from the rest of the women at the table.
"You can stay longer can't you Toph?"
"Yeah stay."
"Come on Toph, you can order more Virgin Avatar's. Our treat!"
"YAY! She cheered, and plopped back down. "Barkeep! Another virgin Avatar! Easy on the virgin, heavy on the Avatar!" Aang rubbed the bridge of his nose irritably, and sat down next to Toph.
"And you must be Aang." said one of the women sitting across from him. Aang looked up, a little taken back at first, but then nodded. "It's nice to finally meet you" she said extending her hand, which Aang shook politely.
"Toph's told us all about you" the other said slyly.
"And you bison whistle" the last woman added impishly.
Aang choked on his drink, and started beating his chest like mad.
"Your so lucky Toph, my husbands bison whistle won't work."
"My husbands is too small."
Face burning with embarrassment, Aang tried to slip away. Without losing her smile, Toph grabbed his collar and pulled him back, securing an arm around his waist. "Naughty, naughty" Toph sang in his ear.
"And did you see how he helped her up, so sweet."
"He even offered to make her some tea. I can't remember the last time my husband made me a cup."
"Me neither."
"Same here."
The conversation dragged on, and the woman were, for the most part ignoring Aang. Not that Aang minded, he just kept low, and pretended to be invisible.
"So where did you two meet?"
So much for staying invisible.
Aang cleared his throat, "Well..." he began.
"Allow me" Toph cut in.
Toph now cleared her throat, as the three woman leaned in closer.
"We met many months ago at an underground earthbending tournament. It was there we met face to face, instantly we felt a deep physical attraction for one another. He was mesmerized by me, and I was enraptured by him. He mustered up the courage to come talk to this mysterious earthbender who had captivated him so. And at that moment; both of us knew we had found our soul mate. Unable to forget me, this handsome monk tracked me down, his heart calling out to mine. To shy to express his feelings for me, he asked for earthbending lessons instead. But I knew, that deep down I knew he really wanted me. It was then that Aang, discovered my horrible, dark secret. That I was a prisoner in my own , and couldn't escape, from my evil parents; and the two of us..."
Toph paused for dramatic effect.
"...we're forbidden from one another."
A gasp came from several of the women.
"So in the dead of night, Aang climbed up into my room, swept me off my feet and whisked me away, so we could be together. Now he was still shy, mind you, and was afraid to tell me how he felt. He would do things like ask me 'how's it going?' or 'have you seen my staff?', but I could see right through his act. Our feelings danced around each other for months, sending signals back and forth. But Aang didn't say anything, but on the inside he ached for me. For weeks he spent sleepless night moaning, shouting, screaming, my name, 'TOPH! TOPH! TOPH!' He would cry." Toph herself cried, banging her fists on the table at each shout of her name. "Only feel sadness, when he woke up and I was not in his arms as I had been in his dreams. Little did Aang know, that he too had stolen my heart, and that I longed for him to take me in his strong arms...AND GIVE ME A BIG WET ONE! The pressure built and built with each passing day, until finally we could contain it no longer and Aang confessed his burning and undying love for me! To which I lovingly returned. Drawing me close, he looked deep into my eyes, and ever so slowly our lips became one just as the sun rose" Toph finished, sighing dreamily.
"Oh my spirits, is that really true?" one of the women asked Aang, whose mouth was hanging open.
"...Well, that's...one way of putting it. But we've never kissed" he answered.
"But why?" they asked simultaneously.
Aang looked at the floor, wishing he hadn't opened his fat mouth. "We haven't because–
"We want it to be special" Toph finished for him.
"Yeah...special" he agreed half-heartedly.
"So how long have you two been together?" the middle lady asked.
"Five days, I guess" Aang answered, basing his answer on how long since Toph ate the passion fruit.
"But sometimes it feels like forever" Toph added cheerfully.
'Can't argue with you there' Aang said mentally.
"In fact it was Aang's idea to take me on this vacation" the earthbender informed them.
There was a long pause before, "Can I buy him off you?" they asked all at once.
"No" declared Toph, hugging Aang possessively.
The women looked away in disappointment, then back at Toph, their expressions serious. "He's a keeper Toph."
"Yeah, don't ever lose him."
Toph held tighter, "I don't ever plan to." she said.
"...Are you sure I buy him from you?"
"ORDER UP! A DOZEN VIRGIN AVATARS!"
"That's us" Toph announced, crawling over Aang to go pick them up. Two of the women went with her to help, but one stayed behind. "So Aang" the lady across from him said, "May I ask? Why do you love Toph?"
"What?"
"I mean, why did you choose her?"
"Excuse me?"
"What about Toph drives you mad with lust! Enthralls you with passion and love!?"
"Huh?"
"...What is it about Toph, that gets your whistle blowin'?" she said flatly.
Aang thought for a moment, "Well...I like her hair" he responded truthfully.
The women closed her eyes for a moment, "Oh; if only I was a few years younger..." she said to herself wistfully, he even compliments her hair. Toph really hit the jackpot with this one.
"That's sweet, but what do you love about her, why do you love her?"
"Oh." The airbender watched as Toph and her new friends handled the tray full of fresh Virgin Avatars. His thoughts traveled to the list up in his from, and all the scratched of attempts of sorting out his feelings for her. What was he supposed to say? What could he say? "I don't...know" he said slowly. "She choose me" he added, not knowing what else to say.
Toph returned to the table, and set the drinks down upon it, Aang got up so Toph could crawl back to her seat in the booth. "So Toph," said the same lady who had been talking to Aang a moment ago.
Toph looked over her glass while sipping her Virgin Avatar, pausing for a moment to ask, "Yeah?" Before continuing to gulp what must have been her tenth Virgin Avatar that night.
"Why do you love Aang?" she asked interested. Aang too, glanced at his earthbending teacher, curious as why in her love addled brain had caused her to fall in love with him.
Toph wiped her mouth with the back of her hand before grinning widely. "Because he's so little." she answered.
"Little?" the women repeated, confused.
"LITTLE!" Aang half shouted.
"Yep. He's so little an innocent, it's so cute" she gushed.
Aang felt an indignant anger boiling in his stomach. "I am not little," he stated loudly.
Toph looked over and her boy toy and smiled, "Oh Aang, I didn't mean it like that, you're just so innocent it's cute" she reassured, pinching his cheek.
This did not improve Aang's mood as much as she thought it would, and now the young airbender was dead set on proving his manhood. "I am not little" he repeated, puffing out his chest, and taking a Virgin Avatar. He stopped the drink at his lips, "Watch this" he said, before starting to chug the drink
All four women were staring in silent awe of the monk who was downing the beverage named after him. Even Toph "watched", amazed at what her Aang was doing. Aang slammed the empty glass on the table, looking around the table smugly. The women impressed, until...
Like a sack of potatoes, Aang toppled out of his seat, and hit the floor like Toph had done. The girls burst into a wild fit of giggles, as they watched the fallen Avatar groan on the floor. Toph stood up from her seat, and helped a tipsy Aang to his feet. "I guess it's time we got going" Toph half said, half chuckled.
'Thank God' Aang moaned in his head.
The woman watched sadly, as the two benders headed for the door, "Awww" they moaned.
"Things were just starting to get interesting" one said.
"I know, I wanted to hear more stories about you two?"
"Me too" agreed the third.
"Sorry girls" the earthbender apologized. Toph left Aang at the door, and went to give each of them a big hug. She then rejoined Aang, who was waiting at the door.
As they were about to leave, one of the ladies called, "Hey Toph, do you want another Virgin Avatar before you go?"
Toph smirked, "No thanks; I've got one right here!" she yelled, grabbing hold of Aang's rear. The women cheered, as Toph chased Aang out the door and into the street, the blind girl positively squealing in delight as she pursued him.
Soon their voices faded, but managed to hear a final cry of "No Toph, don't touch me there!"
Smiling to herself, the lady who had spoken to Aang leaned in to address her gal pals, "Betcha ten gold pieces he won't be a 'virgin Avatar' for long."
"GOTCHA" Toph yelled, grabbing Aang's arm in a vice like grip. Yet the monk managed to slip his arm through her hold on him. "I'm gonna get you" she cried, before continuing to chase him.
Despite being scared to death of what would happen to his behind if Toph caught up to him, Aang was having difficulty trying to escape. Even though he only had one, the intense beverage was taking a major toll on the young and coincidently virgin Avatar. The drink had made his vision slightly blurred, making him dizzy.
It was also throwing him off balance, causing him to bump into random object in the street. He wondered how Toph, who had at least ten of the wretched drinks, be able to stand up and chase him this far, and be gaining on him. He didn't dare use his bending though, who knows how the drink may have affected it.
So Aang just kept running, covering his backside, and praying that Toph would not catch him. Sensing he was almost within arms reach, Toph threw in an extra spurt of speed, and pounced. Throwing an arm around his waist, Toph pulled him closer, and once again dragged him to the ground, pining him there.
"Kiss me" she ordered. Aang opened his mouth to say something, but Toph cut him off. "And this time I'm not taking 'No' for an answer." Toph lowered her head, eyes closed, and lips slightly parted, that were finally ready to make contact with his. Something she had been dreaming of since...five days ago. And nothing was going to change her mind this time.
Meanwhile, an internal battle raged inside the pinned Avatar's mind.
It's not right
But she wants too
She's not herself
His body tensed, as she placed a hand on his cheek.
So soft
She's my friend
Her hair smells so good
But I don't love her.
I can't, can, won't!, want, NO!, YES!
"I CAN'T" Aang screamed, bolting upright. Toph fell back onto the street, so that she was no longer on top of him, but their legs were still tangled. Regaining composure, Toph sensed his vibrations were thick with anxiety, and fear. The earthbender gave him a confused and questioning look, not knowing what else to do.
"I can't" he repeated shakily.
Sensing he was shaking slightly, Toph crawled over to him, wanting to comfort him, but unsure of how he would react. "I don't get it. Is it– is it me?" she questioned, wanting to know why he was so afraid of kissing her.
"Well yes–er– I mean no it's not. I just..." Aang knew that he would have to explain this very carefully, if he didn't want to hurt Toph's feelings. So he would have to approach this at her angle; as if he truly was her boyfriend. "See the thing is..." he coughed uncomfortably into his hand. "I've never...never– um..."
Toph's eyes softened,"Kissed a girl" she finished for him. Aang nodded, and mumbled something inaudible, even to her.
They sat there; not for the longest time, but a reasonable amount of time had passed, before Aang spoke again. "It just feels like we're rushing things a bit, And I think we don't really know that much about each other to be doing these kinds of things." he said carefully, wary of her lie detecting.
"So what're you saying, you don't want to be with me. You don't want to travel together anymore?" she asked nervously.
"I didn't say that!" Aang said quickly, "But it sometimes feels all you care about is...you know. And we can do more than just...that. We can talk, or train, go for a walk, or–
"Cuddle?"
"...The point is Toph, I'm a little uncomfortable with that sort of thing, and I'm just not ready for it," he finished. "But it's not because of you Toph, you know that" he added reassuringly.
Aang was right. Toph had sensed that every word he said was the truth. She felt a tremendous load being lifted off her shoulders. But it was replaced with a new weight, when she realized she had been pressuring him into these things. Here we was doing all these nice things for her, the vacation, the date, the attention, and all she could think about was her own selfish needs. If this was to be an honest relationships, she would have to learn to be more sensitive to Aang's feelings. She could wait for him; if it meat that she would be the one to snag his first kiss, and his love. For that, Toph could wait forever.
"I understand" Toph said. She truly did, yet Toph couldn't help but be a little disappointed Hopefully, it wouldn't be too long before Aang would be okay with kissing.
And when he was, heh heh heh
Toph slowly got to her feet, before helping Aang to his. Her disappointment didn't go unnoticed by Aang, and the airbender seemed to be struggling within himself, trying to decide on something. Finally Aang gently wrapped his arms around Toph and gave her a quick squeeze. It was over as soon as it began, giving no time for Toph to hug back, but she liked it none the less.
"Let's go back; it's cold." he said, trying to sound casual. Toph nodded, and they left for the inn together.
As they did, it was now Toph who was struggling with something, wondering if she should as what she was thinking of asking. "Aang?" she finally said. The monk stopped and turned. "Is it okay if we still hold hands?" she asked, biting her lip.
"Sure thing Toph" he said, extending his hand to her, to which Toph eagerly clasped with her own.
They walked the rest of the way back that way, hands swinging slightly with each step. The only sounds being their steps on the cobbled streets, and Toph asking–
"Is it okay if I still pinch your butt?"
"No."
Aang stepped out of the changing room, and was greeted by the sight of the inn's luxurious open air hot spring. And he had it all to himself. After hearing this place had it's own hot spring, Aang decided a nice hot bath was just what he needed after a night like tonight. Although it was empty, he was still a little wary about bathing outside. But the alluring bath, pushed aside his modesty, and he approached the side of the pool of hot water. Aang threw off his towel, sighing in content as he eased himself into the steaming hot spring.
The hot water felt good and soothed his body. But the Virgin Avatar he had drank, was still making his head fuzzy. He didn't care though, he was far too relaxed to care about anything other than enjoying his bath. Toph had said she was tired, so Aang left her up in their room, along with the fortune balloon. Who could blame her, after drinking a dozen Virgin Avatars, he was surprised Toph had made it back to the hotel without fainting.
Under normal circumstances, Aang would have even risked a bath, lest Toph try to ambush him in the tub. But after their little talk, he felt confident Toph would respect his privacy.
He raised his arms above his head, and let out a yawn; he was tired too. Tonight had really worn him out, but he had to admit, parts of it had been fun. Although he wasn't too sure about Toph talking to a group of wild, strange middle aged women about his bison whistle. And he had no idea where that story came from. Her imagination was just as overactive as his. He wasn't even start on the Virgin Avatars.
Still, he could say he had fun. He had seen a side of Toph that he never knew existed, though he always suspected deep down there was a girly-girl side to his tough earthbending master. And her kimono was–
Aang stopped mid thought, and suddenly grew angry with himself. Splashing hot water onto his face, he mentally scolded himself for thinking such thought, especially about his best friend.
Besides, even if he did hypothetically loved Toph, which he'd not saying he does. Toph didn't really love him. She was just under the influence of a strange,( and particularly annoying, in his opinion) fruit. The monk looked up at the dark sky, and sank a little deeper into the warm bath.
After all, they would be leaving tomorrow, though it seemed like a moot point to do so. If he had read the map correctly, the journey itself would be at least a full days hike. So by the time they even got to the tree, it would already be Toph's seventh and final day of passion. And in the end, they would have only shaved a few hours from her condition, before the affects of the fruit wore off. He started wondering if it was even worth the long trip, just for a measly twelve hours or so.
No. He wanted to stamp this thing out for good. Aang wouldn't leave anything to chance, and risk Toph's condition worse; or permanent. He sunk a little lower into the water, until it stopped just below his nose. He did love Toph, but he loved her like he loved to go flying, or like he loved Appa and Momo. He loved her, but he wasn't "in love" with her.
His thoughts drifted to what would happen once everything returned to normal. He still wanted to be friends with Toph. He hoped they would be friends for years and years. Yet he knew it might be a little strained and awkward at first. And both of them would never look at earthbending the same way again. Hopefully they would some day move beyond it though. Toph would most likely want to forget the whole thing, and just pretend it never happened. A sudden thought occurred to him, would she remember? And what would become of their friendship?
"CANNONBALL!"
There was a huge splash, and Aang was met with a face full of scalding hot water. He coughed, and spat out hot water; rubbing his eyes and finding–
"Toph?"
"What's up", she greeted with a little wave. A towel wrapped around her petite form. Her hair surprisingly; had been released from it's usual bun, and clung freely to her slender neck and shoulders.
Taken back, Aang backed up against the side of the pool. "W–wh–what are you doing here?" he stammered.
"Bathing" Toph said simply, "want me to wash your back?" she asked, holding up a soapy sponge.
Remembering what happened to his precious skin, the last time she tried to wash his back, he quickly declined. More importantly, ""I thought you said you were going to bed" the airbender questioned.
Toph smirked, "I did, I said, 'right after I took a bath'" she explained.
Aang thought for a moment, "When did you say that?" he was foolish enough to ask her.
"Right after you left" she answered giddily.
It was at that moment, that Aang suddenly became aware of the fact that we was very naked; in a hot spring with someone who had on more than one occasion, tried to take advantage of him. His hands quickly dove under, to cover himself, despite Toph's blindness. Feeling it wasn't enough, an embarrassed Avatar snatched the towel he discarded earlier, and hurriedly wrapped it much too tightly around his waist.
"If you want to bathe, then go use the women's bath" he ordered, pointing toward the exit.
As Toph's smirk grew bigger, so did Aang's worries. "You are in the women's bath" she corrected.
"I'M WHAT?"
Toph waved him down, "Relax my little monk hunk, it's mixed bathing."
A pause.
"I GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!" Aang shot up, the now damp towel clinging to his waist. Toph stood up as well. Unbeknownst to the blind earthbender, the knot keeping the towel securely around her had loosened. And was about to fall off. Mortified, Aang shouted, "TOPH YOU'RE–
Too late. The towel fell limply into the water, leaving Toph in nothing but her–
"Bathing suit?" he said dumbly.
Toph tilted her head to one side in an amused fashion, "Yeah, what about it?" she asked innocently. Even through the water, Toph could sense his flustered vibrations, and giggled inwardly. It was fun to mess with him.
Aang didn't answer, but completely submerged himself in the spring, possibly trying to drown himself.
'I think I went to far, on this one' Toph thought to herself.
Feeling embarrassed, ashamed, and somewhat...disappointed, the airbender inwardly cursed his changing body. Especially his hormones; when this whole thing was over, he was going to ask Katara if she couldn't remove them with her healing. Perhaps he would have or exorcize them. Surely these hormones, were evil spirits, making him think and feel these things Poor stupid Aang.
Somewhere between Aang's little outburst, and his idea's for a hormonal exorcism, Toph had silently swam to his side and took a seat. The sound of sloshing water, and a pressure on his shoulder, brought Aang back to his senses. The bald Avatar was puzzled to find that Toph was no longer where she had been only a moment ago. But in actuality, the love struck earthbender was snugly nestled at his side, her head resting on his shoulder. Her brilliant green eyes staring straight ahead, drooping heavily in relaxation.
Still very conscious of semi-nudity, the towel doing very little help his modesty. And Toph wasn't helping with her closeness. "Toph..." he said slowly.
Toph blinked slowly, and sat up straight to stretch her arms over her head, as Aang had done. "Yes?" she yawned, turning slightly to face him. He noticed dark circles under her eyes when she did.
"Remember that little talk we had?" he reminded her.
Her face brightened instantly, and Nodded her head vigorously. "Yeah! You said we need to learn more about each other. And that we should talk and do more things together" she responded happily.
Aang sighed heavily, and ran a hand down his face. Leave it to Toph to turn a phrase, and then mutilate it. "When I said 'do more things together', I didn't mean...bathe."
"It's just a bath" she drawled casually.
"I don't know..."
"I promise, I'll keep my hands to myself" she offered grudgingly, folding her hands neatly and placing them in her lap.
Not entirely convinced, but also not wanting to leave the tub just yet, Aang let Toph's head rest on his shoulder.
"The bath feels nice" Toph commented, flexing her toes beneath the water's surface. Aang grunted his agreement. Even from here he could smell her sweet jasmine hair
There was a long pause between them, until Toph finally spoke up. "Do you think we'll still travel after we're married?" asked Toph curiously.
If Aang had been eating or drinking anything, he would have choked on it and died. All the Avatar could do was stare dumbly at the earthbender sitting next to him. He felt a dull throb in his head. Then it was inexplicably replaced by a warm fluffy feeling, like his head was being filled with cotton making his thoughts fuzzy. And a familiar, yet undescribable warmth, seeped into all parts of his body, making the Avatar without a care in the world. "I dunno; maybe" he shrugged.
Toph paused. "How many kids do you think we'll have?" she asked.
With out missing a beat Aang answered, "Twelve."
Toph smiled, "Perfect."
Aang burst out laughing, whether it was from Toph's statement, or the warm fuzziness in his body tickling him, he didn't know. And he felt too good to care.
"Will our kids be earth, or airbenders?" she asked yet again.
"Both" Aang sighed contented.
Toph quirked an eyebrow; Aang was acting very strange. He was loose and relaxed, and his vibrations were... she didn't know any other to put it; they were giddy. Toph then remembered the Virgin Avatar he guzzled down to impress her. Goodness knows what that drink had done to her sweet little airbender, he should get in bed right away. Although she did have one to two more tiny little questions she wanted to ask him. Just a few.
"What would be name all our kids? When do you want to get married? Where will we live? And what will it be like when we're married?" She asked eager to know.
The Virgin Avatar affecting his judgement and his words, Aang really had no idea what the hell he was saying, his eyes which had turned glassy flicked for a moment before he said, " We'll name them all Dong."
This time it was Toph who broke out in laughter, getting the mental image of a crib filled with twelve dark haired, arrow headed, infants. All named Dong.
Aang continued to answer Toph's questions. "We'll get married in the spring, when all the flowers are in bloom and you can smell them." he said to her. Forgetting her blindness, he started waving his arms in an attempt to paint an imaginary picture for her. Still even without eyes, Toph could picture it in her mind just as clearly. "I don't know where we'll live, probably some quiet little spot, we can call our own. We'll build a house and settle down, and just be a happily married couple. With no worries except deciding what we'll make for dinner that evening." he finished, letting his arms splash back down in the water.
Toph wiped a tear from her eye, "Wow Aang, that was beautiful" she gushed.
"Yeah..." he admitted, "...What were we talking about again?"
Aang pulled on the door with all his might, trying to get it to slide open, but it wouldn't budge. He pulled harder, but to no avail.
"Aang what are you doing?" Toph called from down the hall. He turned. "Our room is over here" she said, pointing to a different door. The sleeve of her bath robe covering her pointed finger.
Aang looked back at the brass initials of K/T. "I know," he mumbled sadly.
Joining Toph right outside there door, the blind earthbender smiled sweetly at him. "Well, goodnight" she said, stepping into the room.
"Goodnight" Aang repeated, waving as Toph slid the door closed and locked it.
Aang stood in front of her door, for awhile before he realized something was wrong. His face fell, and he started knocking on the door. "Wait Toph, I live here too!" he called through the door.
A moment later, Toph unlocked the door and stepped back into the hall. "Oh, sorry I forgot" she apologized.
But they didn't go in.
"I had a really good time to night" Toph stated casually.
"Me too" agreed Aang.
"I really appreciate you spending so much time with me."
"It's was nothing really" he shrugged.
Toph took a step closer to him. "No it was; I don't think I've ever had no much fun before. It was really..."
Toph started leaning forward, her blind eyes staring directly into his.
"...sweet" she decided.
Toph placed a hand on his cheek, "so kind..." she breathed, leaning in a little closer, her instincts guiding her.
Toph stood on her tip-toes, evening out their height differences. Her breathing was shaking in anticipation. She would show how much he meant to her. She leaned in closer, barely any space between their lips. "So...
Suddenly her sea foam green eyes, rolled back into her head. Her body slumped forward, her knee's buckled, and she fell to the floor, unconscious.
"Twinkle-toes...
