Sokka closed his eyes and half-smiled. "Well, we are talking about Zhao here. What do you think?" Everyone held their breath for Zuko's anwser. The 16 year old sighed, then said in a deep, firm voice "Fine. I'll find Zhao. But be warned, I'm doing it for you. Once I find Zhao, I expect you all to leave at once. I just want you to lead me to him." Sokka nodded and smiled. "Thank you! We promise, you won't be sorry." Zuko frowned. "You better be telling the truth. Its late, I have some rooms ready, we start at dawn." Katara grumbled. "We never get to sleep in…" But they were lead to two rooms. One for Katara and Kyoto, one for Aang and Sokka. But, some rearranging was done. First one all, Katara has a minor grudge against Kyoto, second, Sooka pretty much refused to stay in Aang. "No offense…" he said quickly. Aang blushed. "None taken." Secretly, the boys had their own sleeping arrangements planned. (Don't worry….nothing too perverted.)
Unfortauntly, each room only had one bed. Making things a bit uneasy. Zuko simply shrugged and walked away. Sokka blushed and said under his breath "Isn't there one more bed…we can't stay in the same bed…" Kyoto blushed bright red. "Ehehehe…I don't mind." So, Katara and Aang shared a bed as they were used to. It didn't really matter for them as Aang is younger, and there wasn't really anything going on between them. But things were very awkward for poor Sokka. His face was completely red as he gently handed Kyoto a blanket. "It's cold…" he said quietly. Then he laid down. "Goodnight Kyoto." Kyoto smiled andsaid "It's okay...I can sleep on the floor." She whispered sweetly "Sweet dreams Sokka-san. Hefrownedwith guilt and said "Um...nah, it's okay. You can stay fortonight." Kyoto smiled and laid next to him. He whispered "Sweet Dreams." before drifting off. That night, there was a loud thunder storm, and rain threw itself against the windows. Aang and Katara were asleep before the rain could fall. But Sokka was having the reoccurring dream. He didn't scream as loudly, but he tossed and turned. "Suki…you can't leave me…I love you…please…I beg you…please…how am I supposed to live without you? Please…" Kyoto at the time was laying next to Sokka's side by now, and took his hand. Very gently, she lay a hand on his forehead. Whispering in his ear, she said "Sokka..wake up. It's a dream. I'm here…Sokka." Waking up with a gasp, he rubbed his eyes. "Kyoto…" Finding himself leaning against her, he said "I miss her so much…" Kyoto nodded, this time in understanding. "I know you do. I miss my family too…very much." After around twenty minutes, when Sokka had relaxed, Kyoto had fallen asleep, her head on his chest, her hands laid gently against his shoulder. When he woke up, at first he was shocked, but then Sokka relaxed and accepted it, letting Kyoto sleep. "I think I love you…" he murmered. "I really do." He rested his hand against her forehead. Waking up, she blushed and threw herself put of bed. "I'm sorry...I didn't mean to...um.." Be, he actaully smiled. "Kyoto...I don't mind, really."
