Unruly Behavior II

Sokka put his hands on his hips as he looked up and down the table, rubbing his chin in annoyance.

"They're not here," Toph said from below him, leaning back on her palms before yawning, "And I really can't blame them; lucky idiots."

"Well they should be here!" Sokka said in a huff as he sat down on the cushion, "Katara and I represent the Southern Tribe here since Dad is busy rebuilding the place itself and Aang is the Avatar - they have responsibilities you know!"

Toph scoffed before sitting upright and moving her feet onto her cushion, not wanting to unintentionally find her two friends because she was sure they were busy with something she didn't want to know about.

Down the hall and to the right of the meeting room that was becoming increasingly filled, there were two bodies jammed in a closet together.

"Aang!" Katara managed to gasp out as he trailed kisses down her neck, "We really need to get to the meeting, it's about to begin."

The teenager did a noncommital grunt before he moved his hands that had been on her back a little lower.

"Aang! Are you listening to me?" Katara asked in slight annoyance.

"Five more minutes," he said before he moved a step even closer, successfully flattening Katara entirely against the wall.

"Hey!" Katara said in embarassment as one of his hands moved to her bun, pulling out the pins and letting her hair loose.

"Oh come on Katara," Aang said in a sigh as he retracted a little bit, "Yesterday wasn't very fun, why should we go to one of those things early?"

"You're right, yesterday wasn't fun because of your annoying feet messing and embrassing me in front of countless important people!" Katara said, feeling her temper begin to rise even more.

"But we've been so busy that we..." Aang drifted off as he lowered his head onto her shoulder, a lame puff of air escaping his mouth as if to show just how tired he was.

Katara felt her anger stop and she sighed as well, bringing a hand to his face, cupping his cheek. She felt herself smile as he leaned into her touch and closed his eyes.

"Alright, fine; five minutes. Then we have to go," she decided as she moved her other hand to wrap his torso close to hers.

His grey eyes snapped open and he seemed to have all the energy in the world suddenly as he brought their lips together. Katara did an inward curse; he knew how to play her so well sometimes. Not that she minded any, as he pushed passion and deepened the kiss she was all too willingly to return.

When their five minutes were up (it really evolved into ten), they tried to show up the evidence; they straightened and adjusted their clothes back and Aang attempted to help Katara with her hair. It was pretty amusing to the airbender as it was impossible to gather all the hair up since he couldn't fully use his arms in their cramped location.

Finally coming out from the closet, they came face-to-face with a maid who gave a glance, lifted an eyebrow and continued walking. Katara slapped a palm to her forehead as she knew they would be the latest palace gossip before the meeting would even begin.

They quickly walked the short distance to the room, where it seemed everyone was already settled and Zuko had just stood to begin.

"Sorry we're late, we got...uh-" Katara looked at Aang for help.

"We got lost. You know, this palace is huge!" Aang said as he extended his arms high above his head and waved them a little frantically for show.

Everyone seemed to accept this, or didn't seem to care much, even at their still slightly rumbled appearances. It was obvious and didn't need to be talked about; the diplomacy needed to start anyway.

"So, where did you get 'lost?'" Sokka snarked as they sat across of him and Toph.

"In a six by nine closet," Aang stated with a straight face that had Sokka's turning pale.

"Aang!" Katara hissed as she shoved an elbow into his ribs.

"Oh, sorry," Aang said as he rubbed his chest, "Was it five by nine?"

As Katara covered her face with a hand to hide her blush while Aang's grin just widened, Toph cackled out a laugh into a cushion.

"This is totally too much information!" Sokka groaned out as his shoulders slumped.

AN: I like Sokka's last line because they're at a diplomatic meeting where, you know, people talk and brief everyone about the a bunch of activities all over world but then all he's hearing is Kataang and…yeah never mind.
