Worried Katara

[waterwhipitgood]

Katara paced nervously in her room. It had already been several hours and Aang was not back yet. What could be so important that he hadn't come and gotten her, or even allowed her to sit in, like in previous meetings with Zuko She looked pulled the curtain back. and looked outside. She hadn't gotten a chance to really enjoy the Fire Nation at night

Sokka was walking towards Katara's room. There was a certain nervousness in the palace. Considering part of this probably had to do with the situation Zuko alluded to, and that it probably had to do Aang, Katara was PROBABLY pacing in her room enough to dig a hole in the ground. Sokka wanted to see if his siter was alright. And maybe talk to her about something that was bothering him. Yeah, stuff is happening, it's probably not the time to dwell on personal issues. But it's been a while since he saw Katara. He needed some kind of familiar guidance. And maybe Katara knew a bit more then him on this whole being called to the firenation issue. Either way, he had to talk to her a bit.

He stood in front of her door. Hesitant to just walk in. Last time he did that, she got pretty angry. It still felt natural for him to just waltz into whatever room she was in. But I guess there weren't kids anymore. It wasn't just both of them in a tiny house anymore.

*knocks on door*

"Katara? Are you in there?"

*pauses*

"Let me in Katara. Please."

Katara sat up at the knocking. She thought everyone was settling in and knew Aang would just walk right in. She heard Sokka on the other side of the door, and smiled. It had been a while since she had talked to him and she could stand to catch up on some things. It would take her mind off of the current matter.

"Come in," she called. "The door's unlocked."

Sokka walked in and saw Katara sitting on the bed.

"Hey! Mind if I joined you for a bit. I figured it's been a while since we talked, just brother and sister."

*pauses and closes the door*

"I was also wondering how you were doing. I,m still not sure what happening, but something here feels...heavy. I wanted to make sure you weren't torturing yourself over it"

"Sure Sokka, what's up?" Katara asked, folding her legs as Sokka shut the door behind him.

"Yeah, I've felt it too. It's hard to not worry. I've been invited to every other meeting. The waiting is the hard part."

She caught the 'brother and sister' part and looked up.

"Something's bothering you too, isn't it?"

Aang knew he needed someone to talk to. The thought of holding Katara while he explained what had occured only hours ago made him anxious. He missed her already, as silly as it sounded.

As his hand went to knock on her door (he had to fight back the urge to just go in--what if she were sleeping?), he heard Sokka's voice from within. The tone was worried, and Aang bit his lip. Was his anxiety so important that he would interrupt now...?

With a sigh and a forced smile, the Avatar backed away from the door and slowly walked down the hall. Perhaps he would meditate in the garden, instead....

OOC: OMG how am I supposed to respond to that? Are you going to come back when Sokka leaves?

[arrowed_monk]

OOC: Hahaha, how's Aang supposed to know when Sokka's gone? ;p

(OOC: I don't know? He'll guess? I really have no idea what we're going to do here.
