Oh you'll see lol! -continues to chase Sokka around town- Nah, I'm not exactly the biggest Zuko fan... I guess he's kinda alright, though. Sometimes. Kinda. LOL And I feel kinda the same way about that whole AxK thing, but my bf's two years younger than me (but hes like a lot taller than me! at least half a foot!), and I think its kinda cute! lol D My storys still gonna be mostly SokkaxJaeda.

Chapter 8
"What are you doing up so late?" asked a voice. Katara almost jumped. She turned around to see Jaeda smiling.
"Oh... hey," Katara said quietly. "I was just... well... I dunno." She sighed.
"What's wrong?" Jaeda asked, putting her hand on Katara's shoulder. "You look so... miserable. What happened?"
I need to tell someone... "Well," Katara started, "I guess I should tell you, just to make it even..." Then a slight smile krept onto her face.
Jaeda was kind of confused. "You mean... What I told you about-"
Katara nodded.
"Oh..." Jaeda said.
"But can you please make sure Sokka doesn't find out? If he knew, I would never hear the end of it!"
Jeada smiled. "He'll never even know you told me!"
Katara also started to smile. "Well... The reason I was so sad earlier was because... I, uh..." She sighed. "I like Aang. And I don't know if he likes me. And I'm afraid that if I tell him, then..."
"It's ok, Katara! I know exactly how you feel!" Jaeda said, trying to comfort her friend.
"But what did you do? How did you and Sokka become- you know, a couple?" Katara asked.
"Well..." Jaeda started, "He told me he loved me..."
"Wait a second..." Katara muttered. "Do you think you can talk to Aang for me?" she asked hopefully. "I mean... find out if he likes me or not?"
Jaeda laughed. "Of course!"
Katara gave Jaeda a hug. "Thanks!" she said, sounding very relieved.
"Any time," Jaeda replied with a grin. Then she yawned. "I think it's time we got some sleep, don't you think?" she said sleepily. Katara giggled.
They walked back to their campsite to find the two boys snoring away. Katara and Jaeda laughed out loud. "Do we snore like that?" Katara asked, her eyes all watery from laughing so hard.
"I hope not!" Jaeda managed to say. Then they both toppeled onto the grownd from giggling so much.
All that laughing woke up Sokka. "Huh? What?" he said, still half asleep. "Did I miss something?" he asked with a loud yawn.
The two girls were out of breath from laughing. "You should hear yourself!" Katara managed to say.
"What? What did I do?" Sokka asked, starting to wake up.
"Well, you were snoring loud enough to wake up a tree!" Katara teased.
Sokka's face turned red, but it wasn't really all that noticable, since it was the middle of the night. "...Uh... I was...?"
Katara nodded and continued to giggle.
"Well... Aang's snoring too!" Sokka said. They looked over at Aang, who was also snoring pretty loud. The three of them started laughing like crazy.
"And you say I snore loud!" Sokka joked.
"Oh come on, Sokka!" Katara yelled. "Stop teasing him!"
Jaeda silently giggled, and Sokka smiled slyly. "Why should I?" he asked. "The kid's still asleep!"
Katara blushed.
"You don't have a crush on him, do you?" Sokka continued.
"I-I, uh..." Katara sputtered.
"Relax, Katara! I was just kidding! Geez, don't have a cow!" Sokka said, and then added a loud yawn. "Now, I'm going to sleep. Good night. Oh, and lay off on the snoring jokes, ok?"
Katara laughed and rolled her eyes and she crawled into her sleeping bag. Jaeda was already out like a light, curled up on the grownd without so much as a pillow. Sokka saw her silently shiver, and covered her with a blanket. Shortly after that, he and Katara had also drifted off to sleep.
-------
Jaeda awoke the next morning when she heard a loud thump. Startled, she looked over at Aang, who had just fallen out of a tree. She stood up and walked over to him. "Are you alright?" she asked.
Aang got up, as if nothing had happened. "Yeah, I'm fine."
"Why were you in a tree?" Jaeda wondered in confusion.
"Just watching the sun rise," Aang replied.
"Oh..." Jaeda said, still pretty confused.
"Um, hey, Jaeda?" Aang questioned, looking slightly worried.
"Yeah...?"
"Well, um, there's something I want to talk to someone about... I can't talk to Katara, and Sokka would either kill me or make fun of me until the day I die... so... I was wondering if I could talk to you?" he asked hopefully.
Jaeda smiled, assuming that she knew what he was about to tell her. "Sure, Aang. We're friends! You can tell me anything!"
Aang and Jaeda sat down. "Ok," Aang started with a sigh, "here goes. Well, ya know how you really like Sokka and all?"
"Yes..."
"Well," Aang continued nervously, "I feel the same way about Katara. And it's really been bothering me lately, because I don't know if she likes me or not."
Jaeda put her hand on the young boy's shoulder. "Just tell her. I know she'll understand. Trust me, Aang. You need to tell her."
Aang just sat there, watching the other two snooze quietly (which really surprised Jaeda, considering Sokka was snoring like crazy just last night). "I-I dunno," Aang muttered.
"Come on, if you really love her, then you have to tell her!" Jaeda urged. "Trust me. you'll feel a whole lot better if you do."
They stayed quiet for a while, until Sokka woke with a start. "THE FOOD! IT'S GONNA GET ME!" he shouted shrilly, looking like he'd just been chased by a monster or something.
Jaeda and Aang stared at him point-blank, and then busted out laughing. Sokka blushed, realizing that he'd snapped out of his dream, and was currently in reality. "Uh... Good morning?" he said, continuing to blush.
"Sokka look! THERE'S A GIANT DONUT BEHIND YOU! IT'S GUNNA EAT YOU!" Aang teased.
Sokka almost jumped and quickly looked behind him. And then he finally figured out that his friend was just teasing him. "Ha ha, very funny, Aang!" he spat.
Jaeda smiled. "Do you always have dreams like that, Sokka?" she asked, walking over to her boyfriend.
"Um... no..." Sokka replied, blushing an even deeper crimson color.
"Good morning, guys," said a sleepy voice. The three turned around to see Katara stretching her arms and yawning.
"'Morning, Katara!" Aang said happily. "Have a nice dream?"
"Unlike Sokka's..." Jaeda muttered under her breath, with a sly smile.
"Hey!" Sokka said, gently tickling Jaeda's waist, opposite from where her burn was.
Katara smiled. "Actually, I had a very nice dream!" she replied standing up to sit beside Aang.
Jaeda giggled. "What was it about?" she asked, having a pretty good idea about what Katara was thinking.
"Yeah, tell us, Katara!" Sokka teased, aslo assuming it was about Aang.
Katara sent them both (well, mostly her brother,) an evil glare. Sokka and Jaeda just looked at eachother and quietly snickered.
The four of them sat there for a few minutes, making absolutely no noise. Then Sokka sroke the silence by saying, "I'm hungry, can we have breakfast now?"
"Me too," Jaeda agreed.
They all sat around the remains of the fire from the night before, and ate some of the fruit the bought at the market. "So, are we leaving today?" Sokka asked, taking a big bite out of an apple.
"Yeah, but we should leave later tonight," Aang answered. "I like it here!"
"I do too.." Katara mentioned.
Then once they were all finished eating, Aang finally thought up an idea. About how to tell Katara he liked her. "Do you wanna go on a walk with me, Katara?" he asked.
Katara glanced over at Jaeda, who sent her a 'go with him' look, and then back at Aang. "Sure! That sounds nice..." she replied happily as they got up. Jaeda and Sokka looked at eachother and grinned slyly.
Aang and Katara just ignored them and walked down the beach.
"Hey Aang?" Katara asked once the campsite was compeletely out of their view.
"Yeah?"
You need to tell him sooner or later! "Well... first of all... just out of curiosity... why did you want me to go on a walk with you?"
Aang paused. "...uh... because I wanted to tell you something," he replied, staring at his feet.
"What is it?" Katara asked softly.
Aang sighed, and looked into Katara's eyes. "I love you, Katara," he said smoothly.
"You do?" Katara asked in disbelief. "I mean- I-I love you too!" And then she planted a little kiss on his lips. Aang smiled happily when it stopped.
