"Sokka, we need to leave now!" Suki yells, impatiently.
Zuko and Mai just got married earlier that morning and were having a giant reception that would start in thirty minutes. Considering that Sokka and Suki had opted to stay in a luxurious inn-which was provided courtesy of the newly married couple- that was not particularly close to the Fire Nation capital rather than stay in the palace (since many of the wedding guests would be staying there), they had to leave soon if they wanted to get to the reception on time. Suki was currently waiting in the foyer of their inn room, hoping Sokka would hurry.
Sokka sighs, not particularly happy about being rushed. He needed to make sure his outfit looked great on him first before he could leave. He had gone through multiple ensembles trying to figure out which one he wanted to wear to the reception and had refused to wear the same things that he had worn to the wedding ceremony. He had also made Suki change into another outfit as well despite the Kyoshi Warrior's stubbornness on trying to wear the same attire she'd wore earlier that morning.
"Does this outfit look fine?" Sokka asks Suki as he stands in front of the mirror in the bedroom of their inn room for the thirtieth time that hour.
"Sokka, you look fine. Let's go already!" Suki shouts.
"You didn't even come look…," Sokka mutters, "Wait! Did you change? You're not wearing the same dress you had on earlier, right?"
"Did I look that horrible in the dress that I can't wear it again?" Suki asks.
Sokka walks out of the bedroom into the foyer.
"That's not what I'm saying. I was just thinking its boring to just wear the same-," Sokka stops talking when he finally sees how his girlfriend looks.
She looked gorgeous. She had chosen to wear a long, red, gold, and black strapless dress with a slit on one side of the dress coming up to the middle of her thigh and some cleavage showing. She had also painted her lips red, lined the edge of her eyelids with black paint, and pinned her hair up into a bun using a golden flower-shaped hair pin. To top it all off, Suki donned various matching accessories including the lacy red, black and gold fan she was currently using to fan herself.
"What…? Do I look ridiculous?" Suki asks shyly, hiding her blushing face behind the fan she was using when she notices her boyfriend staring at her.
"D-d-definitely not! You look great! You're going to end up outshining the bride looking like that," Sokka retorts, finding himself thinking about other activities he could be doing right then and there rather than going to the Fire Lord and Lady's reception.
"Considering Mai gave me the dress, after you made a scene about not wanting me to wear the same clothing to both the ceremony and the reception, she either wants me to or is wearing something even more flamboyant…the latter of which I cannot see happening. Anyways, we really need to go or we are going to be late. I really don't want them mentioning how we are always late to every-," Suki stops speaking when Sokka suddenly kisses her. Despite being in a rush, Suki wraps her arms around Sokka's neck as he pulls her closer to him.
Sokka pulls away first and gives Suki a look she recognizes all too well.
"We're going to be late…. There will be more than enough time to do that later but seriously we…," Suki's voice trails off as Sokka's hands begin to wonder all over her body. Sokka pulls Suki into another kiss before asking her, "Please?"
Suki sighs, feeling her will-power to get to the reception on time waning quickly.
"Fine. Five minutes is all I'm giving you. Don't mess up my-" Sokka silences her again with a kiss, as his hands slowly begin to pull her dress up.
"That was way longer than five minutes…." Suki tells Sokka, as she hurriedly tries to get her dress back on correctly.
"Sorry, couldn't help it." Sokka responds, as he hurriedly tries to fix his own outfit.
Despite her desire to not be late, Suki can't help but smile softly at her boyfriend's spontaneity.
"I guess I have to work on my self-control," Sokka says with a laugh.
"And I obviously need to work on say 'no'," Suki adds before walking towards the door of their inn room. "Ready?"
"Yeah," Sokka responds, heading towards the door as well.
"We're definitely late."
"They'll know why as soon as they see you in that dress," Sokka says, a smirk appearing on his face.
Suki blushes, hitting her boyfriend softly with the fan that was once again opened in order to hide her reddening cheeks. Sokka opens up the door and allows Suki to walk out first.
"After you, milady," he states, trying to act suave as usual. His actions are met with giggles from his girlfriend as she walks out the door."
"Come on, smooth talker. We have to at least show up to the reception. Then we can have more fun when we get back."
Sokka grins at Suki, musing over how great his taste in women were.
Sorry that this one is a bit short, but I hope you still enjoyed it. I'm a bit worried about if this is still a "T" rating. I'm just going to assume it is!
