Thanks for all of the reviews! Here is the next chapter! Enjoy all.
The school day went by very quick. As the last bell rang Katara went down the hall searching for the boy she had met earlier. She wanted to get to know Aang more. He seemed so nice. She finally realized that he had probably left and went to her locker. Katara pulled out all of the books she needed for homework and put the ones she needed back. As she closed her locker, she saw a familiar face had been hiding behind her locker door.
Katara jumped because she didn't see him. "Hi Katara! Sorry I didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to know if you…um…wanted to hang out ..er with me..so we could….get to know each other." He said rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
Katara was a little surprised that the boy she had just met earlier wanted to hang out with her of all people.
"I'd love to Aang, but I have to tell my brother that I'm not going to go home with him today first." She said.
"You have a brother?" he asked.
"Yeah, his name is Sokka. He's kind when he wants to be, but he can over-react big time about the littlest things." She said. "I'll go tell him; be right back."
Before Aang could even saw anything Katara had rushed off to tell Sokka. So Aang just waited for her by her locker.

Katara found Sokka waiting where his car was parked. "It's about time! Where have you been, I was about to leave you." Sokka interrogated. "Get in."
"Oh, I just came to tell you that I'm not coming home right away. I'm hanging out with a friend." Katara said trying not to mention that it was Aang.
Sokka barely paid attention to what she was saying. "Well don't expect me to pick you up or anything." He said bitterly.
"Okay, see you later." She sighed in relief. Katara didn't want him to hurt Aang.
Katara then went back to where she had left Aang.
After Sokka had started driving, he thought about what Katara had said. Wait, what friend was she talking about? He thought suspiciously.

Aang was still waiting at Katara's locker when she came back. "Sorry it took so long, but I had to make sure Sokka didn't wait up for me." She said.
"No problem." He said calmly. Wow she's so pretty. I can't believe she wanted to hang out with me! He thought.
"So…um where did you want to go?" she asked.
Aang hadn't thought about that. "Well we could just take a walk." He said.
"Okay." Katara replied.
They started walking out of school and through the park. They were both silent until Katara spoke. "So what do you want to know about me?" Katara asked.
"Oh…um I….well, where are you from?" he asked.
"I'm from the South, you?" she responded.
"Me too!" Aang said with excitement.
Their talking went on for hours, and the more they talked the more they found they both had a million things in common. The one thing they didn't know though was that they were both benders.
Katara was so lost in their conversation that she didn't even realize what time it was. "Do you live around here?" Katara asked.
"Well…yes, I mean no…you see I really don't-." Katara stopped Aang in the middle of his sentence.
"You have a home, don't you?" she asked him. Aang just looked down sadly.
"My guardian was killed and I was forced to move away from my home." He said as his eyes started to fill with tears. Katara gave him a small hug.
"I know! You can come live with me and Sokka. We don't have much room, but we cam make room, and I'm sure Sokka wouldn't mind." Katara said.
"No, it's okay…I wouldn't want to bother you guys." He said.
"I'm not taking no for an answer. Come on we'll go so you can meet Sokka." She said taking his hand. Aang just let her pull him around.
She led him all the way to where she lived. When they got to the front yard Katara saw that Sokka was already looking for her.
When Sokka saw Aang and his baby sister holding hands, his mouth fell open.
"Sokka, this is-." Katara never got to finish.
"Get away from my sister!" Sokka yelled. He then pounced onto Aang and punched him in his face. Aang fell to the ground and blacked out not knowing what had just happened. Sokka was hitting Aang more but stopped when Katara screamed and quickly pushed Sokka off of Aang. Katara was furious but, she quickly took Aang in her arms and brought him inside and put him on the couch.
Sokka came in baffled. Katara was getting some ice for Aang and, Sokka was about to get an earful because Katara was more furious than ever before.
Sokka's gonna get it now! But the question is what will Katara do to Sokka? What will Sokka do to Aang? And what will Aang do? Will he stay? Or will he leave? Will he forgive Sokka? You'll find out soon, but only if you review.
