A/N: This was journey. Thanks for reading this mess of plot, and even more thanks to those of you who reviewed and favorited. I know I posted these last chapter up rather quickly and it was mainly because I kept you waiting for so long, I decided I didn't have time for suspense. Prepare yourself for the Suki bashing! I love Suki, but this is necessary.
Sokka's Pov:
The reason why what Katara and Aang had said had hurt me so much was because they were true. Toph and I used to be such good friends, and I can't remember the last time we just hung out. Come to think of it, I haven't even seen her since I started dating Suki. I was at her house right now, sitting on her couch. I told her what Katara had said.
"That's so stupid! They're idiots for thinking you spend too much time with me!"
"Suki, she's my sister. She means well."
"I don't care! It is so obvious that Toph has a crush on you, I'm just protecting you from her!"
"What? Toph and I were, I mean are, just friends!"
"You haven't seen the way she looks at you." This got me thinking. I really like Toph, she's an awesome friends, and I can just be myself around her.
"Well, I know this might be awkward, because the party is at your house, but we can't go now." Suki snapped me out my reverie. It was from that one sentence I realized that Katara and Aang were right.
"You're bossy!" I said, "And you're distancing me from my friends. You are not the person I thought you were. We're done."
"Sokka, don't be stupid, think about what you are doing."
"I already did."
"Fine! I never really liked you anyways!"
"Well you had a funny way of showing it." I laughed as I left her house.
o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.
Toph's Pov:
This party wasn't that fun. Usually, Sokka and I would pull a legendary prank, like dipping all the cups and plates in itching powder, or mixing laxatives into the punch. I hated to admit it, but I actually missed him. I guess I missed him more than I thought because I actually heard him say my name.
"Toph! It's me Sokka REMEMBER?" he yelled.
"I'm blind not deaf."
"Right. Anyways, how are you? It's been a while. Want to try this eggnog? I think Katara made it, 'cause it tastes horrible!" I couldn't help but smile.
"Sure Sokka" He placed a cup in my hand, and right then, someone slammed into me.
"Hey watch it!" I yelled as my eggnog fell all over Sokka.
"Ohh I'm so sorry!" Katara said, a little too happily. "Toph, you should go help him clean off!"
"Uh, Katara, I live here, I can just go grab another shirt…" Sokka said.
"No," she answered him. "Toph and you must go to the bathroom together to clean off."
"That's creepy sugar queen." I said.
"DO IT!" she yelled.
We continued to argue back and forth for a while, until Sokka finally said, "I just took off my sweatshirt, Toph do you want to go… anywhere but here?"
"Yes" I answered thankful for the distraction. This seemed to be okay with Katara, because she just beamed at us and walked away. I heard her say something about Phase 2 completed.
I followed Sokka until we ended up in a study. At least I thought it was a study because I could smell a bunch of old books.
"Toph, I'm really sorry." He started. "I never realized how much Suki was controlling me until literally 10 minutes ago. You're my best friend, and I hope you'll forgive me."
I was shocked. It's not like I hadn't ever pictured this moment, I just thought it would never happen. I was extremely happy, but it's not like me to be all girly and admit to Sokka how much I liked him, so I just said, "Sure whatever."
Before I knew it, Sokka grabbed me in a bear hug. Since this was a special occasion, I decided no harm could come from hugging back.
o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.
"Well that went better than expected", said Zuko while holding Mai's hand.
"I knew it would! There was so much hope!" replied Katara while smiling shyly at Aang.
"You were great Katara!" Aang took Zuko's lead and grabbed her hand. She blushed.
o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.o.
And thus, Zuko the last love guru brought hope to Idaho Valley High School. Unfortunately for his reputation, the actual love guru showed up around a month later, but Zuko quickly took care of him with his chemistry 'skills'. Zuko, Aang, Katara, Sokka and Toph have become great friends, and the latter two are growing closer every day. Even the Love Guru is not match for what time can do for a relationship.
THE END
A/N: Yeah no kissing… but she's 14 and he's 16! That's a little weird for me write. Maybe in ten years…. Thanks for reading! Sorry it may have seemed rush, but I must get this story off of my conscience. As always, rate and review, I enjoy criticism, but don't go out of your way to provide me with some. Here's to hoping The legend of Korra will be as good as the original!
