He was still so amazed at how small she was.

How could such a powerful person be so tiny? When thinking of power the word 'big' always seemed to co-exist with it. But not in Toph's case, yet as tiny as she was she could still take on anyone three, four times their size! He didn't understand how much strength she put into moving earth, how she does it!? And metal! She was only twelve and had uncovered an amazing fact no fifty year old bender could contemplate. When she bended the earth she was surely in her element, it suited her.

"Sokka…"

Those tiny hands and feet, how much destruction they could conduct. She looked so sweet and innocent sometimes but Toph was anything but. But even though he knew her he still found her irresistibly cute.

"Sokka?"

She had saved his life so many times. And she was nearly a foot smaller than him! But he loved how she still needed him. Suki didn't need his protection. But Toph did, she was blind and sometimes she needed his help to see, in the air for instance; when her tiny hands gripped his arms.

"Sokka!"

He snapped out of his thoughts. It was Toph who was looking at him quizzically.

"What?" was that the lightest shade of blush in her cheeks?

"You've been staring at me for the last twenty minutes, you haven't moved a muscle and I can feel your eyes on me."

Sokka turned red and sat up straight.

"Umm, well I…" he scratched the back of his neck embarrassed.

"Whatever, I just don't get you sometimes." Toph went back to splashing the cool water in the pool where her feet were healing.

Sokka smiled and stood to sit next to her, he risked one quick glance.

She still didn't seize to amaze him.

Does anyone want to give me a good idea for a longer one? I want to do one when there a few years older so I can add more passionate romance. R&R
