Chose Wisely

"What's the element you like me bending the most?"

Katara blinked at the question before she tilted her head to the side in thought and said, "You know, I've never really given thought to that. I think you're amazing for all of them."

"I know it's not fire," Aang said first with confidence.

"No, fire's alright. It's hot and passionate and a life in itself," Katara answered; she had forgiven him so long ago for that one misstep she had forgotten.

"Well then, probably not water," Aang continued on, "Since it's your element and you must like bending it more than watching it."

"I like it when we waterbend together," she said with a small smile as she moved closer to him, "It's special and I always look forward to it."

"Is it air then?" he opted for with hopeful grey eyes.

She gave a noncommittal hum before she tapped her chin and said, "Earthbending."

"What?" Aang asked with his mouth agape, "But earthbending is so strict and harsh and choppy."

"I think how you're able to move huge rocks with the flick of a wrist is amazing," Katara giggled like a little girl and not the teenager she was, "And the way your face is so concentrated, it's kind of adorable."

"So when earthbending I look both intimidating and adorable; that's why you like it the most. You make a great point there, Katara," Aang laughed.

"I don't know, it's hard to explain," she said as she bit her bottom lip for a moment, "It's just incredibly sexy."

When she looked over and saw that he had his face ducked in a blush, she laughed.

Nearby…

"See? I told you, now pay up," Toph ordered as she flipped a palm up and faced her fellow teenager.

"Aw man!" Sokka groaned in frustration behind their bush, "I was so sure it was going to be fire!"

"Because of that cheesy time Aang said he had flames of passion for her?" Toph said with a snort.

Sokka glared at her a moment, his thought process having obviously been caught, before handing her over his bag of seal jerky; "You scam everyone, don't you?"

AN: I don't even know. I really have no explanation for you guys.
