Chapter Text
Sokka goes back to school.
Yue never got her driver's license, but Sokka did, and he thinks about her the first time he drives alone down the coastal highway, rain hitting the windshield and wind blowing east through the boughs of the trees.
They hold a spot for Yue at graduation. Show her picture in a slideshow. Somebody plays a violin. And Sokka goes home and listens to trashy indie rock from the year his sister was born because it feels better than the violin. It feels real in a way that so many things haven't, not since he kissed Yue outside school, in the rain, at 3:36 PM.
Sokka and Suki make things official, and then un-official again, and then they stop caring. They just live their lives, colliding occasionally, drifting into romance and back out again without complaint.
Summer bleeds away like a melting candle.
Sokka thinks about Yue for the rest of his life.
