I don't know where this came from or why I feel the need to make perfectly happy characters angsty.
Pairings: Azula/Ty Lee and implied Zuko/Ty Lee.

Cold Comfort.
Lying in bed Ty Lee was silent and still as she heard her large wooden bedroom door being pulled open and then closed. Light footsteps resounded off the walls. The girl who had broken the stillness of the room was illuminated by the sleepy midnight moon. She could have seen who it was if she had cared to look over her shoulder… but she didn't turn to look at the intruder of her nighttime slumber, she already knew.
She didn't give any indication of notice as the Princess of the Fire Nation gracefully lowered herself onto the acrobat's bed, pulled back the pink covers and sheets and slipped in beside her. She didn't make a sound as the Princess draped an arm around her stomach; not so much as shivering as she felt the other girl's long sharp fingernails airily slide down her skin to rest at her side.
She didn't make any noise of acknowledgement as Azula placed a soft kiss to the back of her neck and then drew closer to her, seeking warmth from the acrobat in the cold night. She didn't say anything as the Princess whispered an exhausted goodnight; it sounded muffled due to the fact Azula's face was buried in the crook of her neck, covered in her soft loose brown hair.
And as Azula slowly drifted into slumber Ty Lee didn't so much as whimper as one solitary tear fell down her face, retracing the tracks of its fellows that had dried on her cheeks hours before. Somewhere, buried deep down in the depths of the Fire Nation capital in which they resided, she knew Zuko sat cold, alone, broken and chained in a prison made of metal…
Not letting herself make a sound she snuggled into the embrace of her lover sleeping next to her. Holding back fresh tears she drew herself towards Azula's stone cold touch. The future Fire Lord's frozen fingers sent a shiver down her spine so different from Zuko's warm solid touch... Trying to tell herself it wasn't her fault she wrapped her hands around Azula's, hoping for solace in the embrace of the Princess, but it was a cold comfort...
END.
That's all, I'll leave any sort of back-story to your imagination.
