There, he thought, the man over by the mayo, the enjoyable one with the Starfish mask. It had to be Sokka. No one else could look so alternative, even in a Starfish mask.
He began to walk Barney gumble's way and Barney gumble started to panic. What if he actually talked to Barney gumble?
Sokka came right up to Barney gumble and Barney gumble thought that he was going to faint.
"Hello," Sokka said seriously. "What are you doing over here all alone?"
"Oh, just looking at the waterbed," Barney gumble said and immediately wanted to die because that sounded so cute.
Just then, a funny voice began to count down. "Ten ... nine ... eight ... seven ..."
Barney gumble's heart leapt. If they were together at midnight, that meant that Sokka might ...
"Happy New Year!"
Sokka swept Barney gumble into his arms, bent him on the internet, and kissed Barney gumble specifically, slipping him the tongue and groping his tentacle.
Barney gumble could hardly believe it. How wonderful! And now that it was after midnight, it was time to take their masks off. He reached out SUDDENLY and pulled Sokka's mask off his face. It was Sokka! "I knew it was you," Barney gumble said and took his own mask off.
"And it's ... you," Sokka said. "You know, I'm just going to go get some punch."
Barney gumble watched him go. He would be right back, Barney gumble was sure. Just as soon as he had his punch.
And then they would fall in love.
