I thought this holiday was supposed to be good for couples. So far it's been really disappointing.

I'll be happy if I never have to hear "Valentine's Day" ever again.

[And boyfriends have been equally disappointing; she feels like she's barely seen him for days. Stupid Sokka and his stupid other-girl friends. Stupid holiday. Stupid- ... everything.

She'll be in her room sulking and wanting to punch things. And she might not respond right away, either- she has to have a conversation with a certain someone...]

[When Nan was been sent home, Karol was pretty crushed. Since that day, he's been getting over it. But man, then this happens. This... whatever it was. Sure seems like an experiment, with how people were acting. All this talk of love just felt like a cheap shot. Not only was the girl he loved gone just shortly before it, but the only other girl he really liked, that he spent this day with last year was gone, too!

Because of that, Karol was mostly avoiding the journals, just checking once in a great while to see if anything IMPORTANT actually happened.

Now was one of those times. He skimmed through the journal, when he saw Suki's picture. Wasn't she Sokka's girlfriend? Why was she upset over Valentine's Day? Shouldn't it have been a good day for h--

...Sokka, you ass. That's terrible. Really terrible. You should be ashamed.]

...Yeah, you said it. Worst holiday ever!

[There's a knock on Suki's door. Sokka had been putting this off all day, because he knew that this wasn't going to end good. Not remotely good. He felt like such an ass for what he was doing, but putting it off anymore would be even more cruel. The sooner it was done and over with, the better. Right?

He hoped anyway.]

[And Suki... has been absent for some time. Why? Because she had a little chat with her boyfriend.

...Ex-boyfriend. So she's been crying for a while.

By chance she hears the voice over the journal, and though normally she would have ignored it while in such a state, something about it... pings her. Strange.

Wiping at her eyes, she tugs the journal down to check it. Someone she doesn't know is agreeing with her? He must be going through something terrible, too...]

Y... yeah. It leaves out the people who don't have anyone...

Who is it?

[The response is wary; if it's Sokka, she has to mentally prepare herself and decide whether or not she's going to throw something at his head.]

It's me.

[There's an obvious reluctance in his voice. He really, really doesn't want to do this.]

[She has a feeling she doesn't particularly want to do this, either, but the tone of voice suggests that something is seriously wrong.

And it's not something they can ignore anymore.]

...Fine, come in.

[She'll keep her fans away... for now. Maybe he's just coming to apologize?]

[Oh sh--

She'll be...closing her journal before she accidentally turns on the voice function. It'd probably be best to avoid Suki for a while, for the sake of Suki's emotional health and her own physical health.

She does feel a bit guilty. But...this is for the best. The way Sokka felt...this had to end sometime.]

[That tone in her voice... It's one he can definitely recognize. He sounded like that himself not too long ago. He still felt like that...

He hadn't planned on chatting it up with someone over the journal, really, but, for some reason... he felt like he shouldn't stop communications. It felt kind of nice to have someone who understood...]

Y-yeah... It really just kinda hurts, having it shoved in your face like this.

[He steps inside, but he doesn't close the door and he doesn't come in all the way. There's something obviously wrong with that. He knows this may be the worst thing he's ever had to do and that's in a life of doing some really tough things. But to someone he really cares about, even if it's only as a friend?]

Suki... we need to talk.

[Hey.

Hey Fenimore.

She'll be in touch.]

What's making it so bad?

[...

...

fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu]

[That does feel nice, actually. She can't help but take comfort in that feeling- the feeling that despite how horrible she's feeling, someone understands.]

It really hurts.

[His distance is startling- but last time, when he'd done something wrong, he wouldn't sit either until she invited him. So maybe that's why? She doesn't feel like inviting him anyway, since he hasn't apologized. So she'll wait.]

What is it?

[And it had better start with "I'm sorry" if you ever want to lock lips again, buster.]

Everything. [STUPID BOYS AND THEIR STUPID STUPID STUPID FACES AND UGH SHE JUST WANTS TO PUNCH SOMEONE 8|]

[yeep.]

Geez, it can't be that bad.

How would you know!? [LITTLE SENSITIVE HERE]

[Yeah... This feels pretty good, really. Before, Karol was just keeping it all in, because no matter how much people claimed they understood how he was feeling... he didn't feel like they really did. But having someone to rant to that really does understand... It's almost therapeutic.]

I mean... I'm happy that some people are finding love this week, but couldn't they be a little more sensitive about it?

[Since Mihai has apparently made it his new life mission to hand out relationship advice, he'll let out a sigh and leave a message.]

Usually, unless one of them is particularly dense. Sorry it happened to you.

Well it's supposed to be about love stuff, and even the most idiotic boy can handle that...right?

[Those might be the words he's looking for, but not for the reasons she might hope.]

I... I don't even know how to say this. There isn't any easy way, either. [He'd even thought of writing it out. But when the truth came out, she deserved to have him there, to do whatever she wanted. He knows he deserves it.]

I haven't been that honest with you about... a lot of things.

I wish they would be. They don't have to rub it in our faces.

[She feels a lot better already. Really, why hadn't she met this guy months ago? It would have spared her a lot of grief.]

Sorry, I should- ...I'm Suki.

[This is starting to get a little weird. He hasn't been lying? Just what in the world is he talking about now? His expression - he actually looks pained - is making her anger fizzle a little in favour of concern.]

Sokka... is something wrong? What is it?

Obviously not. And I don't want any part of it now!

Wait. You're telling me that Sokka didn't do anything for Valentine's Day?
