2: A Great View
Sokka, Katara and Aang headed for the parking lot. Aang followed them to a '69 Camaro.
"Sweet ride," he stated as they climbed into the car, Katara letting Aang take shot gun.
"Yeah, I know it's-"
"Dad's." Katar cut off her brother's boasting. He glared at her as they pulled out of the parking lot.
"He 's letting Sokka drive it while he's out to sea." Katara continued when she saw Aang's inquisitive look.
"He's in the Navy."
"Oh. How long has he been gone?"
"Two years," Sokka answered solemnly. The three were quiet for a while and Aang was content to check out the scenery.
" Where'd you live before?" Katara asked breaking the silence.
Aang smiled. "Where haven't we lived? We're constantly moving."
"Why? Is it because of his job?"
"No. We just love traveling. I mean, it's better than being stuck in one place all your life."
Katara thought about it. She'd never left Hawaii and she always wanted to travel.
"But," he continued lookin out the window, "if I had to be stuck somewhere this seems like a pretty good place to be."
He turned back to her. "It has a great view."
She blushed and noticed the twinkle in his eyes. But their moment was ruined as her brother swacked him in the back of the head.
"OW!"
"Sokka!"
"What? He-"
Katara glared at him in the you-better-apolpgize-now way.
"I'm sorry, Aang."
"Me too, I guess."
Katara sighed. "Play nice boys."
"Yes ma'am." they said in unison and she giggled.
"We're here."
"Great," Aang stated. He got out of the car and gave Katar his hand to help her out.
"Why thank you, kind sir." she teased.
"You are very welcome, miss."
Sokka groaned.
"Let's go lover boy." He stated as he grabbed Aang's shoulder causing him to stumble.
"Still falling for my sister?"
"Hey, that time was your fault."
"You still haven't denied it" Sokka pointed out.
Aang could feel his cheeks heatin up. Sokka was right, he couldn't deny it.
