Author's Note: I think this one came out pretty well. It's cute. And, it jumped out at me while I was in the shower, the jerk. I knew if I didn't get it out tonight it would be lost and I would be kicking myself.
Sigh
There’s that noise, again! Aang snapped to attention and his gaze swivelled to Katara. From across Appa’s back he could see nothing wrong with her, which only furthered his irritation. Sokka, who had been arguing with Momo over who was more deserving of the last roll of bread-and losing, badly-also turned to the afflicted girl. Squealing in triumph, Momo snatched to bread away from a distracted Sokka and scurried over to Aang. Sokka eyed the lemur grumpily and crossed his arms.
"Will you stop with the sighing already! Gees!"
"Eh?" Katara’s attention immediately went to Aang after his unexpected outburst. She was surprised to find three sets of eyes peering back at her curiously. A light pink blush immediately found it’s way to her cheeks. "What!"
"Somethin’ wrong? You keep acting all girly and sighing." Katara’s eye rolled at Sokka’s words.
"Don’t you feel like something is missing? Like we left something behind?" Her eyes starting roaming the ocean below them, unconsciously looking for any sign of a Fire Nation ship.
For the one hundred fifty-third time that afternoon, Katara sighed.
