The next class was science. Sokka and I sat next to each other since we were lab partners. Suki sat behind Sokka, who had been paired up with Jet.
"You all can read the assignment on the desk" Mr. Jeong Jeong said.
"Okay. Lets see." Sokka said. He looked at the paper as if he was about to read it. I reached to get the beaker but stopped when I noticed words weren't coming out of his mouth.
"Sokka?"
"Sorry its just these letters are awfully small…" Sokka said. I couldn't help but giggle a little. The way he said it was just hilarious.
"At least they're not small because they couldn't fit on the page. Then we'd be here 'til Saturday." I said. We both laughed.
'We'd both be here 'til Saturday' I should be a comedian! I thought sarcastically. Suddenly a pencil was flung to the side of our desk.
"I've seemed to drop my pencil!" Suki yelled. Sokka picked it up and returned it to her. Jet stared dreamily at Suki as she rolled her eyes.
"Just read the instructions."
I could tell Suki wanted to get back together with Sokka. They were once boyfriend and girlfriend, but they couldn't see each other that often because they weren't in any of each other's classes, and they had after school activities. So their relationship faded and they broke up. Suki still has that crush thing going on, but Sokka just thinks of her as a friend.
"It says to pour the red liquid into the green… I think…" Sokka read. I wouldn't put Suki in the most-hated person category with Azula or Yue. She thinks of me as an aquantince that she sees around since I'm friends with Aang. I'm sure she wouldn't do anything mean.
"You know, I'm free on Saturday…" Jet said.
"I can see why."
"You want to come over my house? There's a dog on my street that hates people, but I could protect you since you're a girl and al—OW!!" I heard as Jet 's head was banged against the desk.
"Don't think just because I'm a girl I can't fight. And no, I'm not coming over your house." Poor Jet. At least I'm not that hard to ask to a house. Speaking of which…
"Hey, Sokka—" I turned around to find an explosion right in my face. Sokka looked at the paper and squinted.
"Oh it said blue!" Sokka said. I laughed a bit.
"I'll ask Mr. Jeong Jeong if we could have another green beaker." I approached his desk and grabbed one of the beakers, then returned to my seat. Suki and Sokka were chatting. I was okay with it. Mix the blue and red beakers in the clear container, The instructions said. I took both beakers and mixed them, and it blew up in my face! Sokka quickly turned around.
"Toph! What did you do?" He said.
"I mixed the blue and red beakers!" I said. Mr. Jeong Jeong realized the liquids were bubbling over, grabbed some paper towels, and hurried towards our desk. He soaked the table with paper towels and after a while it stopped bubbling over.
"Toph, you mixed the baking soda and vinegar," Mr. Jeong Jeong said, "That was the yellow and red beakers."
"But…I…" I stuttered. Then I noticed that Suki and Jet's yellow beaker was full of milk. But the blue beaker was supposed to be filled with milk! Suki must've swapped it.
After class, I caught up with Suki.
"Suki, did you switch my milk with your baking soda?" I asked. Suki seemed to be nervous that I noticed. Then she shook her head.
"Yeah, I did."
"Why? I thought we were friends!"
"I don't know you that much, first of. And second of all, you and Sokka seem to be too chummy." She said. Chummy?
"Sokka and I's classes are mostly together so he's going to be my boyfriend once I ask him this weekend." She said. Five minutes ago I would've not cared about that. I might've even liked it. We could've had a chance to talk and become friends. But now, that's terrible news. Suki is going to ask Sokka to become her boyfriend! Now I have to get Sokka to ask me, so I can stop Suki. It's time for revenge!
