They were staying at ihros tea shop in bah sing se it was after the comet and it was the night after the corination of Prince Zuko to firelord. Everyone was happy and Aang went out to the patio for a breath of fresh air he was pondering everything that had just taken place the last couple of days with the end of the comet and all when Katara came out she was smiling slightly she just stood there with him quietly she had been through everything together and he didn't know what he would do if she stayed in the southern water tribe after the fact he wanted to marry her and them to be together forever but when they last discussed such things at ember island after seeing a horrible play about themselves and he kissed her she just backed away from him like she didn't want to be with him yes she did say she wasn't sure of her feelings with the war going on still so he just waited paitiently it would all be clear soon enough to him he was sure.

He was thinking all this in that moment and as the sun continued to set he turned to her and she to him and they embraced in a passionate hug but he could feel something that he was unsure of what it was and he pulled away slightly just to see her face and she did the same and they both blushed slightly and it was katara who leaned in first and she put her lips to his and he was taken aback slightly his love his life all came down to this and he kissed back with more intensity that was absolutely nessecery but he loved her and it now came in physically they were the only two in the world at that moment even though you could the laughter of all the gang inside . katara broke the kiss and leaned back from aang . Aang reluctant to let her go just gazed at her it was clear that she loved him as well she knew that he had loved her for quiet some time she was the only one that could bring him out of the avatar state.

"Katara I love you and always have " Aang said gazing at her her blue eyes reflecting the love that she had for him and what he was saying relief welling up in side him .

"Aang I love you too I wasn't so sure back on ember island during the play but after Zuko and I faced Azula and I realized that if you didn't come back than there was nothing I could do it was at that moment I relized how much I love you Aang"

He just listended he knew how she felt at that moment from the kiss but to hear her say it with her own words and to know that she had worried about him and his battle made him almost break down all he could do was kiss her more passionately they were in that embrace when the rest of the gang walked out momo flew to Aangs shoulder and he broke the kiss they turned to look at the gang who just smiled toph could feel what was going on lanched a pebble at them and smilled
