So… This is my first ever Fanfiction, but I do a lot of other writing, so I hope this doesn't go too badly. I have read A LOT of fanfiction over the last couple of months, and so I would like to apologise in advance to anyone whose ideas I might inadvertently slip into here (don't worry, it'll only be tiny things) Please go and read all of the Fics on my favourites, as that way you'll know exactly what is and isn't mine, and also you'll get to read some really awesome stories that I really enjoyed reading by some really talented authors.
Pairings: Definitely Zukara and Sukka, and probably Taang and Mai Lee, but we'll see how it goes. My writing tends to get away with me and I often have little control over what the characters do after a certain point. Later chapters are likely to involve some lemon, but not for a long while (if I can help it) so read at your own risk. I'll put ratings on each chapter, and feel free to dispute them if you disagree.
The title is inspired by a song called 'That Kiss' by Tiffany Alvord. GO! FIND HER ON YOUTUBE! I bear no affiliation to her or her music except that I am a fan. I think that it aptly describes the kind of relationship that I want Zuko and Katara to have. Also it is a pretty song, and every time it comes on my shuffle it makes me smile. I'm not confessing fantastic poetry or musicianship here, but we all need songs that make us smile.
Other than that, I don't own Avatar: The Last Airbender or any of its characters blah blah blah… Go watch the series so you know what's mine and what isn't. Any inaccuracies in terms of OC and random bits of plot changing are my entire fault.
ENOUGH RAMBLING! HERE: SOME STORY!
This fic starts at the very second that the Season 3 finale ends, kinda under the camera pan into the sky and… SORRY! STORY NOW!
New Endings
The kiss was long and gentle. Katara wrapped her hands around the young boy's slight frame and felt his hands tighten around her waist. And Aang was holding her so tenderly; she wasn't sure whether she should grasp him more firmly to encourage him or just enjoy the moment. Then the kiss was broken, and they gave each other loving looks.
"Katara. I don't really know what I'm going to be doing now that the war is over, but I hope you'll stick around. I would really miss you if you didn't."
"Of course I'll stay Aang. I'll go anywhere with you on that Flying Bison. I've already been all over the world, what could possibly go wrong?"
She could hear laughter behind her; Sokka had finally given up on his drawing and was now rooting around in a back room, trying to find some food. Katara and Aang clasped each other's hands and walked back into the room together, sharing a secret smile. Suki caught the look and grinned at the lovesick pair, her eyes turning back to watch Sokka returning with a pile of food that he had scavenged from... wherever it was he had just been. He sat at the table and began to eat, and seeing the food, everyone else was soon doing the same.
If Sokka had managed a painting at that point, he might have caught the slight hesitation in Mai's smile as she looked into Zuko's eyes, the brief touch that passed between Katara and Zuko, and the way that Toph angled toward Katara and Aang such that she was almost on top of them. The group of friends were caught up in their eating and were oblivious to the tiny signals that they gave off, so maybe even Sokka wouldn't have been able to capture the moment as it deserved. As it was, these things went unnoticed by everyone, except an endlessly curious Lemur, who sat on another table, sinking his teeth into a stolen apple silently.
Yeah, it's short. I just wanted to say a couple of things before I skip ahead to the time of the actual story. Be Content. Sorry about the long ramble (again)
I'm writing this alongside my NaNoWriMo novel, and while I won't upload any more chapters until after November, this may account for any weird things that I do that make no sense later.
Please tell me what you hate :D
