The Next Avatar: Thanks :) And I know, it was weak, but there will be more AangxKatara in later chapters, I promise. I'm trying to introduce the AxK stuff lightly.
ChEeSyPiEmOnKeY: LOL Are you KIDDING ME? X.x I USED TO HATE HER GUTS! But then I thought it's kinda stupid for me to be jealous of her when Sokka didn't even kiss her... she kissed him. Hey, Sokka might not even like her! (That's not the case in my story, though.) Plus, she can be pretty cool. I take it that you're not the biggest Suki fan? Lol:D
aangsair: Thank ya so much:) -hugs- Lol You'll see what happens... I'M NOT GIVING IT AWAY! NO! I WON'T TELL! -shakes fist- YOU CAN'T MAKE ME! Uh... -regains posture- Ahem! Srry bout that!

Lol
On with the chapter...
-Chapter 6- Heartbreak
After that same crazy dream he'd had the night before, Sokka awoke with a start. That was weird, he thought to himself, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. In that dream... I... I kissed her... Sokka blushed as he remembered what happened.
He looked around the room, and he noticed he was the first to wake up. Again. The night before, Momo moved from Sokka's bed onto Katara's bed, and the furry animal was now snoozing on top of her head. Aang was burried under the covers, and had his feet on his pillow. Sokka laughed at the funny sight.
Being bored to death, he walked outside, hoping he wouldn't see any sign of Jet. He decided to take a walk to the beach. That was now his favorite place to think. Who knows? He might even see Siara there...
Siara. Sokka now focused all of his thoughts on her. He'd quickly grown to trust her, and they had so much in common... they act as if they've been best friends for years... Sokka was so confused. Why couldn't he stop thinking about Siara? It's not like she's actually devastatingly attractive, is it?
Once he'd finally made it to the beach, he saw a familiar face. Aparently, the beach was Siara's favorite place to think, too.
"Long time, no see," Sokka said sarcastically as he sat down beside Siara. The two of them laughed.
"Hey, Sokka..." Siara said casually. "So... how are things between you and Suki?" she asked, remembering the little argument they had last night.
Sokka sighed. "I haven't really talked to her..." he replied quietly, staring at the ground. "She's probably been out with Jet all night."
Siara put her hand on Sokka's shoulder. "She's just being nice to him, Sokka," she said in a soft voice. "Don't let it get to you."
It already has, Sokka thought. "I know..." he muttered.
"Suki would never do anything to hurt you, Sokka. I know her better than that..."
Sokka just sighed and hoped his friend was right. The two of them stayed quiet for a while, gazing out into the ocean.
-------
It had been at least two hours before Sokka or Siara had even said anything. But this long moment of silence gave them both time to think.
Sokka glanced over at Siara, who was sitting beside him. She looks so... Maybe I do like her... NO! I like Suki! But- What if she likes Jet? What if... She wouldn't... I hope Siara's right...
Siara sighed. From the corner of her eye, she could see Sokka. He didn't exactly look very happy, either. Every now and then he would glance at her, but turn back when she would glance over at him. Ok, so maybe I am jealous of my best friend, Siara thought. But I'm also happy for Suki. I mean, I should be glad she has such a... such a... a cute boyfriend. And I have nothing.
-------
Sokka finally decided to speak up. "Are you as bored ad I am?" he asked unenthusiastically.
"That depends," Siara said in the same dry tone. "Are you bored out of your mind?"
Sokka laughed. "Yup."
A grin krept onto Siara's face. "Me too," she muttered. "What do you think we could do?"
Sokka smiled at the idea he just had. "Well, we could take a walk around the woods..."
"I'd like that," Siara replied softly, with a warm smile. That smile made Sokka blush. I think I do have feelings for her... And this time nothing about Suki interrupted that thought. He helped her up, as always, and together the two teens headed off into the woods.
-------
"Wanna hear something funny?" Sokka asked blankly as they were taking a walk down a path in the woods.
"What?" Siara asked.
Sokka snickered. "I heard that yesterday Katara kissed Aang," he teased.
Siara laughed. "Aw, that's so sweet!" she cried. "Does she like him, or something?"
"Most likely..." The two of them continued laughing, until they finally decided to stop. They stayed quiet for a while, both lost in thought.
Siara sighed. I wish I was Suki, she thought. She's so lucky to have a guy like Sokka. I mean, he's cute, he's nice, he's funny... Why can't I have that? Ok, so I AM jealous. Very jealous. And sometimes I wish I had Sokka all to myself.. I know, I can be so selfish... But, then again, I don't want him to get hurt. The way Suki was acting around Jet yesterday... it's almost like she's crushing on him or something... when she's already got a boyfriend... But Suki would never do that! She wouldn't do that...
I'm confused, Sokka thought to himself. I mean, what do you do when you have a girlfriend, and you really like her, but... you start to really like someone else? Ok, now I'm asking myself questions. What's next, I'm gonna get into a fight with myself? I can't just break-up with Suki. I really like her! But- I think I'm falling for Siara... Who do I choose?
Sokka and Siara continued walking, still thinking about eachother. But when they glanced over to their left, they stopped dead in their tracks, and stared wide-eyed and in shock at the sight they saw. Suki had her arms wrapped tightly around Jet's neck as he was holding her close, and their lips were locked in a kiss.
Siara and especially Sokka were both in complete shock. "SUKI?" they both shouted. Suki and Jet broke their kiss and stared at them. "Oh! Um, hey guys..." Suki said innocently.
Sokka couldn't believe it. He felt like Suki had just ripped his heart out and stomped on it, until it was broken into a million little pieces. This can't be happening... he thought. "But- I- you- HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO ME?" he shouted. Suki just stared at him blankly. Sokka continued. "I loved you! I really did! And you went and-" He was then cut off by Jet. "Suki's mine now," Jet said tauntingly. "You had your chance, Sokka. And aparently, you failed. She loves me."
Suki opened her mouth to say something, and it looked like it was going to be an apoligy, but Sokka quickly spoke first. "You know what?" he started. "Just forget you!" He then stormed off in the other direction.
Siara looked stunned. "Sokka really loved you!" she said. "This isn't like you, Suki!" And without another word, she ran to look for Sokka.
-------
How could she do that to me? Sokka thought. He was currently at his favorite thinking spot, which we all know as, the beach. I can't believe it. I really loved her! And I thought she loved me too, but I guess I was wrong. What does she see in Jet? What does he have that I don't? Sokka didn't want to think about this whole situation anymore. He was too broken up. But unlucky for him, that was the only thing on his mind. He couldn't focus his thoughts on anything else until he felt a gentle hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry," said a soft voice. Sokka looked beside him to see Siara.
"It's ok... it's not your fault..." Sokka muttered, now staring at the ground.
"I don't know what to say..." Siara continued. "I know this isn't any of my buisness... It's just... I never thought Suki would ever do this to you..."
Sokka sighed as he continued staring at the ground. And then a tear slowly ran down his cheek. He wiped it away, hoping Siara wouldn't notice, but she did. "Oh, Sokka..." she said quietly as she hugged her heart-broken friend. Sokka held Siara tight as another tear fell down his cheek. "It's gonna be ok, Sokka," Siara said, hoping to cheer him up a little. "I promise." Then she kissed his cheek. Sokka blushed furociously, and then smiled. SIARA JUST KISSED ME! That friendly little kiss really made him feel a whole lot better.
He held Siara even tighter. "Thanks, Siara," he said, happy to have such a caring friend.
"I'm always here for ya," she replied, smiling. Then she pulled away from their long hug and looked Sokka staright in the eye. "Remember that," she said, her expression soft. She gave him a warm smile, then stood up and walked away. She was somewhat surprised to find Katara looking her way. "Hey Siara," she said with a smile.
"Hi Katara," Siara replied.
"What's wrong with Sokka?" Katara asked, suddenly sounding worried.
"Suki just broke his heart," Siara replied quietly.
Katara looked surprised. "She broke up with him?" she asked.
Siara shook her head. "No, worse," she answered. "She cheated on him with Jet."
Katara was even more shocked than before. "Really? But, I could never picture her doing that!"
"That's what I thought," Siara muttered as she walked away.
-------
It was starting to get late. The sun was close to setting, and it was starting to get a bit cool outside. Sokka decided to walk back to his room, hoping he wouldn't see Suki or Jet on the way. He just wanted to lay down on his bed, and analyze what had happened, for the millionth time.
As Sokka entered his room, he found that nobody else was in there. Good. He sat down on his bed, and put his hand to his cheek, right where Siara had kissed him. I should tell her... he thought. I really need to... But what if she cheats on me like Suki did? What am I thinking, Siara would NEVER do that! But... that's what I thought about Suki... But Siara's so... Sokka sighed. "What now, Sokka?" he asked himself aloud.
A/N: POOR SOKKA! -cries- WA! Oh, I can't believe I just did that to poor Sokka! WHAT DID HE DO TO DESERVE THAT? Anyway, please review! Thanks! And for all you AxK fans, there's gonna be more in later chapters, I promise! But... this is mostly a Sokka-centered story... so... Oh whatever, just review! LOL:)
