Here (In Your Arms)

-

I like,

Where we are,

When we drive,

In your car.

I like,

Where we are,

Here.

Toph Beifong never, ever, wore dresses. Only once, during prom, was she seen in a dress. From that moment on Sokka had only seen her in jeans and occasionally calm-diggers.

The most he ever saw of her shoulders was in the mornings, right before she pulled a loose sweater over her pale body.

So when he saw her wearing a dress, his brain seemed to stop functioning. A simple strapless, satin dress. Being Toph she had given tradition the boot and instead of white fabric she had chosen a deep forest green.

Cause our lips,

Can touch.

And our cheeks,

Can brush.

Our lips can touch,

Here.

Toph Beifong never, ever, did her hair up. Only once, during prom, was she seen, her hair clean and piled elegantly into a small bun on her head. From that moment on Sokka had only see her hair hanging down, in messy braids or in a low bun.

So when he saw her, hair spotless and curled into small ringlets, his mouth fell open.

Where you are the one, the one,

That lies close to me.

Whispers, "Hello,

I miss you quite terribly."

I fell in love, in love,

With you suddenly.

Now there's no place else,

I could be, but,

Here in your arms.

"So that's it?" She asked him.

"I guess so."

"I'm still Toph Beifong, right?"

"Yeah, I didn't make you change your name. Toph Kirima doesn't sound right and neither does Sokka Beifong."

"I dunno. I kinda like the sound of Sokka Beifong."

"Well, maybe one day. What are we going to call our kids? Last name-wise I mean."

"Beifong. No questions asked."

"Fair enough."

I like,

Where you sleep,

When you sleep,

Next to me.

I like,

Where you sleep,

Here.

"Did you ever regret it?"

"Regret what?"

"Falling in love with me?"

Our lips,

Can touch.

And our cheeks,

Can brush.

Cause our lips can touch,

Here.

"That's a stupid question, of course not. I love you."

Where you are the one, the one,

That lies close to me.

Whispers, "Hello,

I miss you quite terribly."

I fell in love, in love,

With you suddenly.

Now there's no place else,

I could be, but,

Here in your arms.

"Ugh, that was sappy."

"Too much so?"

"It was close to the limit."

Our lips can touch.

Our lips can touch,

Here.

"Fine, I'll just keep my romantic tendencies under control."

"But Sokka, that's what makes you so manly!"

"Why thank…that was sarcasm, wasn't it?"

She laughed. "I thought you'd be able to see it coming a mile away."

You are the one, the one,

That lies close to me.

Whispers, "Hello,

I miss you quite terribly."

I fell in love, in love,

With you suddenly.

Now there's no place else,

I could be, but,

Here in your...

"So are you going to kiss me? You know, the groom's first kiss?"

"I don't know, I was thinking of sharing my first kiss as a bride with Zuko."

"What?! What do you mean!? Have you been cheating!?"

She placed a finger on his lips, silencing his outrage. "It was a joke Snoozles."

"Oh."

You are the one, the one,

That lies close to me.

Whispers, "Hello,

I miss you quite, miss you quite..."

I fell in love, in love,

With you suddenly.

Now there's no place else,

I could be, but,

Here in your arms.

Kisses are something very special.

They can be small, timid and coy.

They can be passionate, sexy and fierce.

They can be a sign of respect in some countries or a sign of love in others.

They can be anywhere, the lips, eyelids, cheeks and hands.

They can be a seal. Bonding two people together forever.

Through sickness and health.

Through richer or poorer.

Though hell and back.

Through life, in all it's setbacks.

Here in your arms.

Oh, here in your... arms.
