"Mmm. MMM. Mmm, mmm… Mmm. MMM. Mmm, mmm…" The organ's tune echoed throughout the church halls. The couple being wedded had agreed months ahead on gold and red as their decorating colors. And oh, was it beautiful. The walls were champagne color coated, while the church seats were as true as the mineral itself. The carpet and banners were scarlet, as were the roses placed on the end of every chair. Two transparent, sparkling chandeliers finally perfected the scene to dazzle friends and family of the future newlyweds. Overall, a very expensive marriage.

More then all people in the Southern and Northern pole had shown up for the bestfriend of the avatar, Katara. The announcement of her engagement had come only weeks before. The lucky man was Jacob Burns, the state's most eligible bachelor, as well as a great comedian. Not only was he handsome (if that's not enough), he was also one of the master in waterbending in their village. Everywhere he wentgirls will be mooning over him. If there was such thing as a perfect guy, he would be it.

With 25 minutes left till her big entrance, Katara felt the sickness within her stomach maximize with each passing tick. She felt herself being pampered by the groomers, though she felt uncomfortable with people sitting on the floor, fluffing her dress.

"Hey!" said Toph with a big hug, and even larger grin. "I can't believe you're getting married today! AH!" Both girls squealed. Tophwasn't much of a girly girl at all; in fact, she was extremely intelligent and had her hair boyishly cut, but it was her best friend's wedding day, and she couldn't have been more gleeful.

"Like, if you aren't the prettiest thing in a million miles!" Said a Sokka, who's happy for her.

"Oh, Sokka, you are so sweet!" Katara stretched her arms around him, and hung there for a few seconds.

"No," he pushed her gently away, and cupped her head in his hands, "I'm truthful. No one deserves this more then you. Just always visit us."

"Of course I will! After the trip, Jacob is heading to Ba Sing Sei for several weeks to do some job, and we both agreed that I could still be with you, and still love one another. I really didn't know if we could do it, but thinking about the challenge, I feel fearless! And hopeful."

Sokka smiled and kissed Katara in her cheek. He loved her as his sister, and having her become betrothed was such a moving experience. He felt water sog his eyes.

"I may be blind but I'm guessing that Sokka wants to cry.," Toph said. Sokka immediately felt redness come to his cheeks.

Katara turned to her. "Toph, that's normal. It means that Sokka will miss me."

"No I won't. There's something caught into my eye." was his joking excuse.

Katara stepped back, and kneeled to the ground. The women lacing her dress gave her a cold stare. She stood back upright.

"Ok, I guess I'll miss you sis!" said Sokka, who admitted it to her.

"Oh, I'll miss you too, Sokka. But I'll be back in a week, I promise." Stated Katara. "Besides, we have the reception afterward! And that means wedding cake!"

"Wedding cake!" Sokka chorused. Katara felt herself being pushed from behind. "Come on, Katara, no bother wasting time!"

"Hold on, Sokka. We still have time." She felt herself being crowded. "Besides, where's Aang?" She spoke of another extremely close friend. Aang is her bestest friend in the world. She also want to thank him for everything.

Toph and Sokka gave each other "that look". The one that means they know something you don't. Something you don't want to know. But Danger-Prone-Katara wasn't going to let it slip by.

"What is it? Is Aang okay?"

"Yeah, yeah, he's okay." Toph answered.

"But, uh… well, he's…" Sokka slurred. "He isn't… uh, he's not…er, exactly… coming."
