Chapter 2: Confusion
That night, after the royal ball, I was restless.
Everything was so confusing. Why was I so jealous of Mai and Zuko? I wasn't before why now?
I tossed and turned in my bed and I kept hearing some noise and then I realized what a really was when Sokka had yelled,"Katara? You ok? You keep moaning!"
"I was moaning? How so?" I yelled back.
"You sound like you're sick. You sure you're ok?"
"Yeah, I'm fine. Must be the dreams I had been having"
"Want to talk about it?" He asked, in a caring way.
"N-no that's ok" I was still contemplating if I should tell Sokka…I wasn't sure who I should tell about my confusion. I needed to tell someone I could trust. Preferably a girl who'd understand…but who?
The next morning I woke up very tired. I barley got any sleep from thinking too much.
"You look horrible!" Sokka said bluntly
"Oh yeah thanks" I said, annoyed
"Sorry I'm just a truthful guy. I tell people the hard truth." Sokka said with an evil looking smirk. I lightly punched him in the shoulder. Then, I sat down to get some food into my empty stomach.
"You better eat that quick." Sokka said.
"Why?" I said sternly and in an annoyed tone.
"'Cause. We have to go to the Royal Palace. Zuko has an important thing he wants to tell us." I perked up a little at the sound of Zuko's name. It was so unique and just…awesome.
"Ok. Fine." I ate the rest of some bread I had and got ready as quickly as I could.
When we got to the Palace Aang, Toph, Suki, Mai and Zuko were already there.
Poor Toph sat alone. I felt a pang of loneliness for her. She never had a real crush that I knew of. I reluctantly sat next to Aang and Sokka sat with Suki and Zuko and Mai sat at the front of the room. Then Zuko began to talk.
"I asked you all to come here to make an announcement…about fun!" He had this weird happy look on his face. I giggled a little. When nobody said anything he went on.
"Well I thought to truly celebrate the end of the war we'd have a fun vacation on Ember Island!"
Then, everyone became very excited except Aang.
He had a sad look on his face and stared at the floor. "Aang, what's wrong?" I asked in the most caring voice. "I can't go to Ember Island." He said, he sound so upset.
"Why?" I asked
"I was going to spend the next few weeks learning about more techniques from all four elements and learn how to continue my duty as the Avatar. But I don't want that to stop you from going…go Katara…have fun" He smiled but still had a sad look in his eyes. I nodded once as he rose.
"Zuko, I can't go to Ember Island…I have important Avatar duties to attend to."
"I understand." Zuko said then I heard something I was happy to hear.
"I can't go either. Its my babies brother's 3rd birthday and I wouldn't miss it for the world." Mai said with a slight smile.
"I understand that as well. Mai, I won't come between you and your family." Zuko said. He was so caring. Then he turned to us, "Sokka, Suki, Toph" then he turned to me, "and Katara, I guess it will just be the five of us."
He smiled at me, I smiled back.
"We'll leave Friday morning." Then Zuko walked out of the room.
Friday morning? Then I'd only have to wait 3 more days.
