"So what did you do today Aang?" Katara asked.
"Well, I followed a rumor of an airbender living here in Ba Sing Se to the house of a girl named Tomoko, and her sister Natsuko. They live with their grandparents because their parents were killed during the war."
"Did they turn out to be airbenders?" asked Katara as the rest of us ate our food.
"Yes. The two sisters had discovered their powers but had been warned by their grandparents to never use them. So when I came asking around about airbenders they nearly killed me. After I finally convinced them that I was the Avatar, they listened to what I had to say and will now be coming here for lessons."
The rest of dinner was spent with idle conversation, jokes from Sokka and the occasional outburst from Satomi that usually made everyone laugh. When we had all finished eating, Toph excused herself from the table. Katara got up and went with her.
"Well I better get going." Said Sokka as he got up from the table.
"Come by more often." Said Aang, "We could use your sense of humor."
"I will." Said Sokka as he walked out the door.
Third Person Toph
Toph was exhausted by time dinner was over. She had used all of her energy ignoring Sokka all night. Katara showed her to a guestroom she could use. Toph barely had enough energy to take her clothes off but she managed and lay down on the futon in just her breast band and her loin cloth. She fell asleep almost immediately.
Third Person Katara
Katara stood in the doorway of the room Toph was sleeping in. Toph was sprawled across her futon, having moved while she was sleeping. She looked like an innocent little kid, an angel. You would never guess that she was going to be a mother by just looking at her.
In the last six years Toph had grown a lot. She had grown taller, now standing at about five feet. She had dramatic curves and she had let her black hair grow out. Her bust had grown much larger but was still smaller than Katara's ample chest. She was, in all honesty, a very beautiful woman. Whenever she and Katara went out, Toph had the eyes of every man, especially when they saw her light green eyes that, though blind, seemed to see through a person, into their soul.
Aang walked up behind Katara and wrapped his arms around her waist, putting his chin on her shoulder.
"What's got you so worried about Toph?" Aang asked quietly.
"She's pregnant, you know, and it's Sokka's baby. I don't know how they're going to get through this. Toph won't even talk to him. They had a fight a few weeks back, and Toph basically told Sokka to stay out of her life for good." Aang spun Katara around to face him.
"They'll work it out, and if not, well we'll see if and when that happens."
"I guess we'll have to trust that love with fix everything. Anyone can see that the two are in love, they're just too scared to admit it to each other."
"Love has a way of tearing people apart before it puts them back together again as better people." Said Aang, ever the philosopher.
"Is Satomi asleep?"
"Yeah, I put her to bed a few minutes ago. She's worried about them too."
"We have such a wise child."
"Yes we do. Has she shown any signs of bending yet?" Aang asked. They walked to their room and got ready for bed.
"Not yet, but it'll be any day now. I can't wait."
"Me neither." They kissed goodnight and drifted off to sleep.
Total fluff chapter. Nothing really important, just Aang and Katara's views on what is going on. The next chapter is back to Toph's point of view.
Jaa nee!
