This drabble is SOKKA PoV. Also, in case you haven't caught on by now, these drabbles aren't exactly in chronological order. I'm not even sure if they're cannon…oh well. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: If I had my way, Zutara would be the official ship, the show would have run longer, and a certain fictional firebender would be locked in my bedroom. I obviously do not have my way.
Pervert
I saw the way he looked at her when her back was turned. The glances he gave her across the campfire. The way he stared when he thought no one was looking. That pervert.
Whenever she and Aang got up early for waterbending practice, he was up too. Meditating, he said. Bullcrap.
I'd always disapproved of her bending in her bindings. Had she been anything but a waterbender, it'd be fine. But…water. And thin, white bindings…they were indecent, revealing. I hadn't thought much of it…Aang wasn't at all distracted by it. (Smart kid.)
But he certainly was.
That…filth! Peeping through half-closed eyes, breathing far too heavy to be meditating. I could hear his heart beating from a mile away. I could hear him moaning.
The disgusting dog was panting over my kid sister like some animal in heat! ...Whoa. Crap.
No way. There was no way in hell that was happening.
How old was he, anyway? Seventeen? Twenty? Twenty-five? At least twice her age! Surely Father would disapprove...
A gentle nudge disrupted my train of thought.
Questioning green eyes bored anxiously into mine. "Sokka, you ready? We can't be waiting on the best man, ya know…"
I shook my head, clearing the past from my mind. "I'm fine, babe. Chill," I said to my wife, attempting a weak smile. She saw through my mask.
"Sokka, I know you two don't really get along, but it's about time you face it. She's marrying him. Katara is marrying – "
"Don't say it. Please Suki, if you value my sanity. Don't say that pervert's name."
The woman actually laughed. "Sokka, he isn't a pervert! I'm fairly certain that it's acceptable to be a certain way with one's fiance…," she frowned, giving me the eyebrow, "Unless you're insinuating that you didn't fantasize about me before we were married."
"Of course I did!" Oops.
She smiled treacherously. "Well then, stop being a hypocrite. And hurry up, I hear the music starting!" With an eager grin she sprinted from the room, Kyoshi skirts weighing her down.
I sighed in denial. One year. It'd been one year since everything happened. Our adventure. One year since Suki had worn her warrior attire. (One week since she'd made me wear it.) One year since I called him a pervert to his face.
One year since Zuko confessed to me he was in love with my little sister.
Everyone else may be fine with the wedding, but I don't think I'll ever be comfortable with it. My little sister is going to be Fire Lady – the first waterbender in Fire Nation society. She really is marrying him. So sure of their love, just like everyone else, that they all disregard her age. Only sixteen…so young.
That pervert.
Sokka is the best big brother ever. Everyone needs a Sokka.
