A bit of sparing, perhaps?

And what if I sang?

Sokka didn't remember having so many dreams before. Other than the few nightmares two or three times a week, he barely had any dreams that were actually bearable. When it happened, he simply forgot them and moved on with his day. But not today. His brain -or maybe Yue- had decided to make him dream about no one else but Zuko.

And now there he was, sitting there, his brain completely fried and Katara looking at him as if he came from space. "You okay there?" She had asked him over and over with barely a head nod from him. So she gave up, saying that she will be practicing a bit of waterbending in her usual spot if he needed her for anything.

He played the dream over and over again. Still unable to process the fact that he had possibly one of the best dream of his life and it was all about Zuko. He remembered a hand, Zuko's hand, very delicate as it was placed on Sokka's cheek. His golden eyes, hidden between strands of dark hair. His own fingers, removing them from his face and looking at him as if it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. And it was though.

He blinked, suddenly the dream was gone, but the feeling was still there. He felt his throat get drier and his hands more moist. Fuck he was stupid. Yue had helped him sorting out his feelings about Zuko last night, but that was about it. His brain rot hadn't stopped and worse, he still didn't know if it was normal to like a guy.

"Hey there Snoozles."
"Nothing!" Sokka jumped.
Toph let out a laugh, "Woah there I didn't know I was that scary, thanks." Sokka groaned, "Anyways, I was thinking we could go walk in the forest? I'm kind of bored."
"Sure why not?" Sokka shrugged.

They walked to the forest. He didn't really know what was Toph looking for, she wasn't exactly the type to just ask to go on a walk like that. But whatever, as long as it helped him take his mind off Zuko.

Unless that didn't work. Because now he was thinking about that part of his dream where Zuko was laughing. He didn't remember what he was laughing about but he remember the sound being one of the most beautiful thing he had ever heard before, he wanted it as his lullaby to go to sleep. He wanted to kiss his laugh, or maybe kiss the lips where the laugh came from-

"What are you thinking about?"
"What?" Once again Toph snatched him off of his thoughts.
"We were just talking and suddenly you stopped answering." He really did that? Rude.
"Oh uh yeah, sorry." Sokka said, blushing.
"You miss Zuko don't you."
Well damn, she was good at this for a twelve years old, "Maybe."
"Yeah I guessed. Where were you last night? I felt you leaving and then coming back a few hours later." They stopped walking, Toph emerging two seats out of the ground once again.

They both sat down. It was weird, so many conversations with Toph about love, unusual really. He who thought he would be annoying with it, "I went to talk to Yue." He said. Before remembering that Toph had no idea who Yue was, "She was my first girlfriend, she uh, turned into the moon."

"Well damn okay. Did she answer?" She snorted.
"Very funny." He said sarcastically, a small grin on his face, "She didn't but still, I could feel her presence as I spoke to her."
"What did you tell her?"
Well uh, he wasn't sure he wanted to tell Toph about everything that had been said. She did know about his crush for Zuko. She was the one pointing it out, and she knew even before Sokka himself was aware.

"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to you know." She continued.
"Well, I did ask her if it was normal to like guys." Sokka said, rubbing his neck.
"What did she say?" Toph answered, he wasn't sure if she was teasing or serious.
"She didn't say anything."
"Do you think it's normal?" Toph asked.
"That's literally my question here Toph."
"Well I don't know okay! I've never felt anything for a guy before. I'm just trying to help." She said, throwing her arms in the air.
