Chapter 3
Sokka, Sokka SOKKA!
"Ahhh" Sokka awoke with a start. He'd been out for about an hour and they were really starting to get worried. Sokka looked around. Katara and Aang were sitting on either side of him. At the end of the bed Ami was staring at him. She had the brightest eyes he'd ever seen. Her hair was a pale white, and her skin was rather tanned. Not too surprising though considering she lived in a farming village. She looked just like Yue miniaturized. Sokka was just about to pass out again when Katara splashed some water in his face.
"Nu ua," Katara said. "No more blacking out."
"What happened Sokka?" Aang asked.
"Um I don't know, I'm okay now," Sokka stated trying to get up, failing miserably, and falling on the dirt floor, with a thud. Aang helped him get back in bed.
"Maybe you should stay in bed," Aang suggested. "We can handle everything."
"It's getting late," Wen stated. "Maybe we should be getting to bed."
"Yes, you need to be rested to earthbend," Haun said. "We have a guest bedroom you two can sleep in," meaning Aang and Katara.
"O no!" Sokka yelled sitting up. "If anyone's going to share a room, it's going to be either Katara and me or Aang and me."
"Sokka, quit being paranoid. Aang is just a friend," Katara said pushing Sokka back in bed.
"But-"
"SShhh. Go to sleep," and with that Katara and Aang walked out of the room into the hall.
Just a friend. Aang thought Argg The three worst words in the English language. Why oh why did she have to say just a friend? Couldn't it have been mostly a friend? Kind of a friend? Want to be more than, just a friend? I hate those words! Those words are the real evil in this world. They need to be destroyed.
"Aang is this the room?" Katara asked pointing at a door. Pulling Aang out of his "The words just a friend need to die" rant inside his head.
"Um yeah I think so." Katara walked into the room and fell on the bed. Aang followed her in and sat on the other bed. "So um," Aang was staggering his words. "What are you gonna be doing when I'm learning earthbending?"
"I guess practicing waterbending or watching you," Yes!
"Okay,"
"Well I think I'm going to bed," Katara yawned crawling under the wool blankets.
"Sweet dreams," Katara was asleep in seconds. Aang had gotten under the covers and looked over at her. Her curves were still visible from under the blanket. Her steady breath rising up and down. Aang's heart sped up just seeing her. After watching Katara for a few more minutes Aang fell asleep. Unaware that tomorrow would be life changing.
