Author's Notes: Huzzah, Kataang! This is my first time writing this pairing. Anyway, this idea is a little crazy and a little too sweet, but I can't really help it writing Kataang. They're just so cute together! This has a second part for those of you who support Tokka as well, so check it out!

Remember to review!

Taste

(sweet)

"Twinkle Toes, what're you do—mmmph!"

Katara looked up from the water she was Bending to find Aang's lips clamped firmly over Toph's, while Toph herself was waving her arms around rather comically.

"Aang!" The water between Katara's hands fell to the ground with a splash as she shouted the Avatar's name.

"Toph!" Katara vaguely recognized her brother's voice screeching (and yes it was a screech, because what else was Sokka capable of?) the Earthbender's name.

Aang pulled away from Toph, and Katara was certain she heard the sound of lips detaching from lips. Aang looked calculating for a moment before he puckered his lips together like he'd sucked on a lemon.

Toph, on the other hand, looked anything but calculating. She was turning steadily redder and then, like a coiled spring, attacked. With a stomp and a kick, Aang had a rock Bended at his stomach, which he quickly deflected with a sweep of his arms.

"What was that for?" he questioned, giving the blind girl a look she couldn't see.

"Why'd you kiss me?!" Toph cried, waving her arms around again.

"I'd like to know the same thing!" demanded Sokka, appearing over Toph's shoulder to glare at the young monk.

"Back off, Meathead!" ordered Toph, but—Katara couldn't help but inwardly smirk here—Sokka stood his ground.

"No!" her brother shouted. "I will not back off when Aang just—just kissed you!"

"Why the interest, Ponytail?" shot back Toph. "This is between me and Baldy."

"I don't want him kissing you!" cried Sokka, his arms waving and his eyes bugging.

"Why not?" added Katara, her innocent smile turning into a knowledgeable smirk. "Jealous, Sokka?"

He gaped at her like a fish for a moment before shouting, "Momo and I are leaving!" He stomped off like he did when he was little right into the woods, Momo perched on his shoulder.

Toph was still surprisingly pink when she forced out, "What was that, Twinkle Toes?"

"Well," began Aang, and Katara leaned forward to listen, "Katara said I should explore my freedom—"

"Hey!" she quickly cut in. "I didn't mean explore your freedom with Toph!"

"Who else was I supposed to do it with? Sokka?"

"No!" She blushed at the thought.

"Then what—"

"That's it!" Katara and Aang both turned to Toph, who had by now regained her attitude. "I'm outta here," she said, and headed out into the woods.

"But Toph," Katara warned, "that's where Sokka went!"

"Oh, I know," she called over her shoulder. "And we have something to work out." Toph cracked her knuckles ominously.

Katara and Aang shared a look before Katara remembered that she should be angry at the Avatar. She sent him her coldest glare. "Just why did you kiss Toph?"

Aang looked exasperated as he said, "You told me to!"

"But I didn't mean you should actually do it!"

"Then why did you tell me to?" he demanded.

Katara fumbled over her words. "Because I—so you would—you see…" She sighed, then said, "Why did you make that face when you kissed Toph?"

"What face?"

"Like you had just eaten a lemon," she described for him.

Aang turned a faint pink. "Because she tasted… weird."

Katara laughed at that. "What did she taste like that was so weird?"

"She tasted bitter," the Avatar decided. "She tasted like Toph would taste. She didn't taste like—" He paused.

"Like what?" Katara asked, and she could feel her heart pick up just a bit.

Aang turned pinker still. "She didn't taste like you."

Katara could feel herself blushing as well. "And just what… do I taste like?"

The Avatar took a step closer to her. "You taste just like you act." He placed a simple kiss on her lips that left her heart bursting out of her chest. "Sweet."

"You know," Katara said, and kissed his lips, "you taste pretty sweet yourself."

Smiling, Aang and Katara shared in the sweetness of the other's kiss.
