Bound- Day 5
No, Sokka did not like it one bit. He saw the stares, the smiles, all the signs. He honestly couldn't understand what had happened between his sister and Zuko. Since her trip with Zuko they had become more close to each other. Sokka didn't want to admit it but he was jealous. Katara had been selfish when she had left to face their mother's killer. Kya was his mother too. Since then, he had become angry toward Zuko, he envyed their new relationship. Katara was not supposed to like Zuko, and from the gestures they have exchanged it was more than a friendship.
Today Sokka saw his sister watching Aang and Zuko practicing their firebending. He once thought Katara was there just to watch over Aang. When he saw Suki join in he noticed it was just a show. He watched as his sisters eyes glazed over. They giggled and pointed with those big moon-eyes. It gave him the ooglies.
At times when his sister would disappear he would ask Toph where she would leave to. Toph would touch the ground for a few seconds only to bust out laughing. This would definitely make Sokka furious.
One day at diner Katara had made rice with chopped up pieces of squirrel rabbit. This would have been fine with Sokka but she had spiced it more than she usually would. The group hated spicy food, except for the jerkbender. Suspicious, he noticed she had given Zuko a larger amount. This had done it for Sokka.
When night had fallen he followed his sister deep into the deserted space of the Western Air Temple. Hidden behind a thick pillar he spotted a dark figure ahead of Katara. That dark figure was Zuko. They embraced and talked throughout the hour Sokka had been hiding out. His feet had begun to hurt and he had grown bored. Just as he was going to leave Sokka saw the worst picture he could imagine. That jerk bender had kissed his sister. Sokka's teeth clenched, his face twisted into pure full on rage. He watched as his little sister, the one he was supposed to protect, kiss him back. Reaching for his boomerang he found that he had not brought it. Sokka couldn't stand to look no more. He ran away slightly confused for why she had fallen for the firebender.
Back in his tent Sokka came to realization that he had not been the only one to know of this relationship. Toph had known, she could feel everything with her damn feet! Suki knew, Katara would have gone to Suki for advice. Why didn't Suki tell him or why didn't Katara tell him herself. He felt like a fool. He felt betrayed, she betrayed Aang. In frustration Sokka laid down ripping the blankets over his head. He waited and listened to the couple make it back to camp. To his releif he heard them part ways into their own tents. At that moment Sokka felt more heartbroken than angry. He had grasped the thought that his little sister was growing up.
