He stood in the hallway and watched as she sprinted off.

88 minutes later he was still standing there as people swarmed by him to get to their next class.

He should go after her. He knows he should go after her. He just didn't know how to without looking like a cheesy ending to a Meg Ryan movie. Not that it would matter. She would probably punch him in the face.

"It's worth a shot." He said aloud, gaining looks from the hangers that were passing by.


Katara sat in her spot. She had class, but she didn't care. She had used him, sort of. Karma's a bitch. She just was just playing around, not trying to hurt anyone. Now, she could tell he really liked her, then and now. She shouldn't have ruin off, but what could she do now. He was probably gone. She'd never see him again because she's stupid. Stupid, stupid, stupid, stupid...

"Katara?" She looked up form her rant to see Zuko, "I don't want you angry at me." He said. She blinked.

"But I'm a bitch,"

"Well so is Karma, " he said, "And the nun's love her." Katara laughed and he slid down on the wall next to her. "I'm sorry I left without telling you."

"I'm sorry we're both tools." She said and turned to him, "I don't want to mess up anything we might have had. Or anything that we did have. I don't want to mess anything up. And I've probably done that already but I didn't want to and if you don't want me back..." She was cut off by a pair of lips and smiled joyfully. Even her screwups could bring pleasure.


Suki glowered from her spot in History. Katara was missing. Again. And, apparently, according to a text she received from Sokka so was Zuko. After listing to Katara rant for 3 hours after school yesterday about how worthless he was and she could just go skip and make out with him? Oh, she knew. Assuming was wrong, but this was hawk-nose-on-face obvious. She would have some things to say to that horny little girl after this was over.

But on the other hand, she was happy for her. She had been so miserable. Sokka knew it and tried to help by acting normal. It hadn't worked well. Suki knew that she tried to hide it, but failed miserably. The first time in a while Suki had seen her happy was when she was with Zuko for those brief seconds she had noticed. Even if it was ridiculous. They were good together. Like carrots and peas.


I'm off to Youth in Government. Leave me some nice comments?

Okay, so I owe you all an explanation. For the horrible chapter, the sue ect. I should be making excuses, but I'm not. Excuses are for unsecured people. Truth is, I plain out was out of ideas and inspiration. I will rewrite them, and they will be much better. This is where they will end up though. And who knows, maybe I started a sequel ;)
