What Do You mean 'Zuko'!

Toph jumped when she heard him. She had never heard Aang yell so loudly before. He practically shook the walls.

She leaned closer to the edge of the boy's locker room, trying to hear more.

"Calm down man." Sokka said, Toph could tell. "I'm upset about it too."

"Wait, since when has Katara liked Zuko!"

"Hey, I'm only telling you what I heard man. I don't know if…"

"I don't believe this!" BANG! Toph jumped again when she heard Aang punch his locker. "OW!"

"Why do you even care?" Sokka asked, as clueless as Toph had been.

Aang didn't answer. Toph heard him snarl, yell again, then slam his locker close.

Aang stormed out into the hallway, furious as demon and twice as nasty looking. Toph pulled herself away from the boy's locker room door and tried to act normal.

"Um…" She tried to say something. Aang turned around and yelled down at her.

"Did you know too? Did you?"

"Know what?" She nearly gasped. Aang's height scared her now.

"Sokka said that Katara likes Zuko! She's thinking of asking him to the dance! Can you believe that crap! I don't…" He circled around, spiting fire and fuming out of his ears.

"Aang, calm down."

"Why? Why should I? I hate that guy! Katara knows I do! Why would she do that? Why do the nice ones always end up with the jerks?"

"I've been wondering that for the past days myself." Toph wished she had the nerve to say that to Aang.

Aang slid one of his hands through his hair and tried to cool down, but to no avail.

"Um…do you want to talk about it?" Toph didn't know what else to say.

"Don't patronize me." Aang turned away from her and walked away.

Toph never liked seeing Aang suffer, be it from physical or mental anguish. She was always there to keep Zuko from beating him up and she was the first one to take his mind off stress.

But there was something about seeing his heartbreak that made her…happy. It was delicious.

"Serves him right." She said, watching him leave.
