Hey everyone. So I was cleaning out my computer and I came across the other chapters I had written for this story. I totally forgot they were there and totally forgot what my plan was for the whole story, but I guess I thought someone might like to read them? Does anyone even want an ending? I don't know, just let me know I guess...Anyway, here goes.


Click. The door opened and in tiptoed Aang and Katara.

"Hello?" Aang loudly whispered. There was no answer. He reached over and turned on a small lamp. "Toph, we're home." he said in a quiet voice. He walked further into the living room and his eyes got wide.

"Katara!" He whispered. He motioned her to come over. She looked at him confused. "Where's Toph? I thought she'd be here when we got back…" She stood next to Aang and her eyes widened. She took in a small gasp. Sokka and Toph were both asleep and intertwined in each other on the sofa. Aang and Katara looked at each other a little shocked.

"Did you know Sokka was coming over?"

"No, he didn't tell me. I guess it was going to be a surprise."

"This is a huge surprise! The two of them together?" Aang whispered excitedly.

"That's not what I meant by a surprise, Aang. Should we wake them up?" Katara asked.

"No, no, I think we should let them sleep. They look so happy." Aang said a bit dreamily.

"I guess Sokka does hate to be woken up without a real reason to… alright, we'll let them sleep?" Aang nodded. Katara and Aang headed over and checked on their children and then went to bed.

"This is so strange." Katara said while lying in bed.

"What is?"

"Aang, you know what. My brother and Toph? Huh? What could the two of them have in common?" She was perplexed. Then she gasped. "What about Suki? Is Sokka cheating on Suki?!" She furiously whispered. "My damn brother and his need for female affection." She crossed her arms.

"Katara, I'm sure it's nothing. Your brother wouldn't do a thing like that. Maybe they both just dozed off and didn't know it?"

Katara didn't answer.

"We'll find out in the morning. Goodnight." Aang kissed his wife and then turned over and fell asleep.


"Uncle Sokka!" Bummi yelled. "When did you get here?"

Sokka squinted his eyes open. He yawned and then opened his eyes wide. He suddenly noticed that he had his arms wrapped around Toph's whole body including her large stomach. His cheeks turned a little red.

"Uh.." He whispered. Shoot. I forgot we fell asleep like this. He thought to himself.

"Bummi, let your Uncle Sokka wake up peacefully and come wait at the table for your breakfast. " Aang told him. Sokka was relieved. He pulled his arms away and gently shook Toph awake.

"Hey, wake up." He told her quietly.

"Uuhhh." She moaned. "I don't want to." Toph suddenly reached down and felt Sokka's arm that was resting on her stomach. She gasped and quickly sat up almost falling off of the sofa. Sokka quickly reached out and pulled her arms towards him.

"Thanks." she said a little out of breath. Very suddenly Toph moved away from Sokka.

"Oh, uh I didn't mean..."

"No, no, I'm sorry if I was…" They both said very awkwardly and scooted away from each other. Katara came over with a large spoon in her hand.

"Good morning, Toph, Sokka, also thanks for telling me you were coming, Sokka." She said with more than a hint of sarcasm.

"Sorry, Katara. I thought it would be a fun surprise. I'll tell you next time." He shamefully rubbed his shoulder. Toph looked in the direction of Katara.

"Listen, I want to make one thing clear. We're not-." Toph motioned a hand between the two of them.

"We just fell asleep, that's all, right, Toph?" Sokka.

"Right." She said sternly.

"Sokka, I can't believe you." Katara sourly replied.

"What?" he asked.

"Stringing two women along? You just can't get enough attention, can you? What about Suki? How would she feel about you "falling asleep" with Toph?" Katara scoffed.

"Katara, don't do this." Toph tried to calm her down, but Sokka jumped right in.

"You think I'm the kind of person who would do that? Katara, you know me! I would never use someone like that." He stood up.

"Well, what did I just see then, huh? What about Suki?" She had her hands on her hips and the pot on the stove was boiling over, but she didn't care.

Sokka was quiet and sat back down. He stared at the floor for what seemed to be longer than planned and took in a deep breath. "You know I would never be mistrustful like that." He calmly spoke. "Suki died, Katara. A couple of months ago." He muttered. Katara dropped the spoon in her hand and there was loud CLANG on the floor.

"I didn't tell you because I was in so much denial, but I've accepted it now."

"Oh, Sokka, I'm terribly sorry." She said slowly, tears welling in her eyes. "I feel so ashamed for the way I spoke to you." She walked over and squeezed him in a hug. There was a hissing sound and Katara rushed over to her large pan. Sokka sighed and then felt Toph take his hand. She gave him a slight smile and then suddenly covered her mouth and stood up. She quickly ran over to the bathroom, but the door was closed. She banged on it with her fist.

"Hold on, I just got out of the shower. I'll be right out."

"Aang, I'm going to throw up!" Toph exclaimed.

"Ok, well I'm almost..." He said quickly. Toph couldn't take it anymore. She opened the door and ran to the toilet making it just in time. Aang let out a loud shriek and quickly went to close the door. Toph coughed and moaned. She sat on the floor and put her head between her knees.

"Toph, please!" Aang said as he quickly wrapped himself in a towel.

"It's not like I can see anything." She waved her hand in front of her face. She abruptly turned her head and threw up in the toilet once more. "Uhhhh…" Toph grumbled.

"You don't sound so good, Toph." She ignored his comment and stood up reached for the door.

"Alright, I'm leaving now." She reported. Toph walked back to the sofa and found Sokka had moved into the kitchen and was talking with Katara. She yawned once more and made a face because of the yucky taste in her mouth. She sat down and leaned against the back of the sofa. She actually slept surprisingly well for once.

"Auntie Toph?" She heard a small voice say. She looked to where the voice was. "Good morning!" Kya happily said. "Thank you for playing hide and seek last night. It was fun." She climbed onto the sofa and gave her aunt a big hug. Kya wrapped her tiny arms not even halfway around the girth of Toph's stomach. Toph hugged her back and genuinely smiled at her.

"I had fun too." She whispered.

"Kya, breakfast is ready." Katara called with a slightly weary voice. Toph could tell she had been crying. Kya ran over and Toph stood and followed her to the kitchen.

"Toph, would you like anything to eat?" Katara asked wiping away a few tears.

"No, I feel sick." Toph held her stomach and leaned against the counter.

"Don't you have work today, Toph?"Sokka asked.

"Nope, I've got Sundays off."

Katara served herself, Kya, Bummi, and Sokka breakfast. Her eyes were still filled with tears, but she continued to eat. Toph sat at the table, but leaned back in her chair and slowly rubbed the top of her stomach.

"Mommy, why are you crying?"

"Because someone very special to us no longer lives in the world. She went away Kya, and that makes me very sad." Katara's voice trembled. Sokka went over to get her a towel to wipe her face on.

"Thanks." Katara pushed back her plate. "I'm afraid I'm not hungry either." Aang walked in fresh and clean.

"What's with all of the sad faces? Did the breakfast burn?" He asked.

"Mommy is sad." Kya answered as he joined them at the table.

"Why is mommy sad?" Aang said as she rubbed her back.

"Aang, Suki died." Aang gasped.

"Sokka?"

"It's true. A couple of months ago."Sokka pushed around the potato on his plate.

"I understand how you feel. Losing a loved one is the most helpless feeling. I felt the same way when I found out that I was the last airbender." Aang stood up and patted Sokka on the shoulder.

"If you need anything, we're all here for you."

"Thank you." he replied. "I'm learning to accept that that was what the spirits chose for her lifeline and now I must get on with mine."

"Would it help if we had a memorial for her?"Katara asked.

"The Kyoshi warriors held a small one on Kyoshi island."

Katara nodded. She looked over at Toph. "Toph, what are your plans for the day?" Katara said moving onto a new subject.

"I have some things to get in town, but that's about it."

"Oh, alright then."


Once they had finished their breakfast, Aang took the kids outside to play in the air temple gardens while Katara spent sometime to herself.

"I'm going to scoot home. I need to get changed and head out into town before it gets too late." Toph told Katara.

"Alright, again, thank you so much for babysitting. I hope they weren't too much trouble."

"Not at all, I'd better get used to it anyway." She smiled.

Sokka came in the room while his things.

"Ready?" he asked Toph. She nodded. Katara stood up.

"Are you not staying here with us?" she asked.

"No, I'm not. I feel like I'd just be in your way. You've got a lot going on here. I think I'll head back with Toph. She offered me an extra room. But you know I'll be back for an extended stay in a few weeks, right?"

"Ok, then I'll see you two soon." She hugged them both and walked them outside. Toph and Sokka said their goodbyes to Aang, Bummi, and Kya and then boarded the ferry back to Republic City.

"Thanks for letting me stay. It's really nice to spend some time with you. I missed us. We're a great team." Sokka said casually as he placed his arm around her shoulder.

"Yeah, we are." Toph responded calmly back, but could feel that her heart was racing in her chest.

"What do you want to do today?" Sokka asked.

"I have to go into town to do some food shopping, but other than that. I haven't got much."

"Food, huh? Why don't I make dinner for you, Toph? My treat for your hospitality."

"Just no stewed prunes." She made a face and then laughed.

"Gotcha. No stewed prunes."
