The blue spirit is hot
Sokka was taking a walk. He had been visiting Katara and now he was walking back to his dorm, and his roommate. Sokka had been Zukos roommate for more than one year now. School had just started again. Even though he had known Zuko for a while, he barely knew anything about him. He knew he didn’t like to talk about his scar, which covered almost half of his face, his family, himself or maybe he just didn’t like to talk in general.
While Sokka was lost in his thoughts he didn’t notice the man with the knife in one hand following him. When Sokka was walking through a dark valley the man decided that this was his chance.
“Give me your money or else!” The man threatened him.
Suddenly everything went black for the mugger.
“I had that” Sokka protested, the blue spirit didn’t answer. “Why are you always following me? Right, I forgot. You don’t talk.” Sokka huffed out of annoyance. “You’re probably still not going to tell me who you are, are you?!” Sokka sighed. “Of course you’re not, you’re just some hot dude who saves my ass occasionally. I mean, uhm. I definitely didn’t say that at all.” The blue spirit left again silent like a shadow.
When Sokka came back to his dorm Toph was there. She was a friend of both of them. Zuko was in the bathroom at the time.
“Why would I even say something like that! I’m so stupid. He’s probably straight!” Sokka complained to his friend, Toph.
“Well, I wouldn’t be so sure of that” Toph said while smirking.
Zuko emerged from the bathroom and started making tea.
“Right, of course. You know him, as in his identity” Sokka looked a bit jealous.
Zuko finished making the tea and offered them some. Sokka took the cup happily but Toph just shrugged. Zuko also got himself some tea.
Sokka continued while Zuko sipped on his tea. “He is so fucking hot, I just want to make out with him in some dark valley.” Zuko spit his tea out, luckily Sokka didn’t notice because he was too busy trying to figure out why Toph had started laughing maniacally. “It’s not that funny!” Sokka said, which only made Toph laugh harder.
“Toph! You’re cackling like some witch” Sokka continued confused.
“This is just so iconic.” Toph got a crazy glimpse in her eye, Zuko didn’t like that. “You know, the blue spirit is into boys, maybe I could get him to meet you somewhere” She smirked.
“Wait, seriously?” Sokka said hopeful.
Zuko was lucky Sokka didn’t see his face looking like a burned tomato.
“Can you tell him I’m looking forward to it?!” Sokka blushed lightly.
“I have a feeling he already knows” Toph simply answered, eyes shifting to Zuko.

Sokka was outside, had been a while now. Zuko saw him through his mask. If he just could make out with him, or even just one kiss. Zuko had liked Sokka for a while now. But, if Sokka were with the blue spirit it would make it even harder to resist him in his everyday life. He simply couldn’t do it.
Sokka saw the blue spirit leaving. Where had he learned to be so silent and quick. It was almost as if Sokka were watching a cat. He jumped between buildings and into the night. Sokka wondered what he would do if he were the blue spirit. Make out with some stupid boy or continue with his life.
Zuko had left, knowing full well Sokka had seen him. He was taking a very unlogical course back to his dorm, because Sokka might be following him with his eyes.
Zuko was the firebender. That meant one day he would have to become king of the fire nation. There was always only one bender alive at a time from every nation. The benders would be the next Kings and Queens, they had been chosen from their element. The benders that taught them would die the day they turned twenty. Zuko had already found Toph, the next earth queen but didn’t know her master. Zuko highly disliked his master, which in fact was also his father. Then there was the avatar. He didn’t count as a bender and therefore would not be king.
Zuko called Toph on the way and she told him she’d meet him at his dorm.
“I can’t just kiss him and then not be affected as a person, and a prince” Zuko complained.
“You know, for a crown prince, who can bend and a nighttime vigilante, who fights with duel swords, you sure are stupid. Just tell him that you like him when he comes over and if you start dating, ease him into all the other stuff.” Toph was obviously getting bored of their constant drama.
