Sokkla Drabble Challenge: WORD: Dream
Sokka went silent, just as Azula predicted, the moment they rounded the bend. Azula crossed the small stream, stepping from one rock to the other to the large stone table, then headed to the boulder near the pools edge.
“Well?” she asked as she tossed down her knapsack and bedroll down and turned to look back at her husband. Husband. “Have a chosen a good honeymoon spot?”
He hadn’t moved, his mouth gaped as he twisted to see the chartreuse, violet, scarlet and gold leaves reflected in the pools water, the tiered waterfall to the distant right, sparkling in the afternoon sun, the smaller waterfall that emptied just across from them creating a curtain of water that flowed over a rocky overhang.
“I’m asleep,” he told her.
Azula smiled back at him. “I pray not,” she told him. “Because then I’d be asleep as well.” She held her hand out towards him and he was soon beside her.
“Well wife,” he said, cupping her chin with his hand. “Considering that we are all alone here on this island, there are things I’d much rather do than sleep.”
Azula couldn’t help but to concur.
