Panda Lilies

The sun was low in the sky and made the sky iridescent. Aang stood on the mountain top that over looked Ba Sing Sae. In his hand he held a single Panda Lily. He was going to give it to his girlfriend, Katara, earlier, when he proposed, but he became scared. Suddenly, he heard footsteps behind him, and then, a woman's voice.

"Aang," she said, "Aang."

He turned around and met her gaze. He was locked on her eyes, the enthralling color of a clear azure ocean. "Hey Katara," he answered.

"You ran off and I got worried." She stated, her concerned eyes never left his.

He knew she was referring to the incident earlier that day, when Aang had tried to propose. Aang had gotten permission from Katara's father a while ago but had no idea how to ask. But when Aang found the Panda Lily, he suddenly got an idea.

"Are you going to say anything?" She asked, her chocolate brown hair flowed when a gust of wind whistled past them.

"Hey," was all he could manage without braking down.

"What's wrong Aang?" Katara asked, "Why are you acting like this?" She truly was worried, Aang had only acted like this once before, and she didn't like to dread on the memory.

"I don't want to talk about it," he turned his face away from hers.

"Aang," she said, her angel voice rang in his ears and he forced himself not to look at her. "Look Aang, I don't know what's going on and you are scaring me. If you won't tell me I'm going to leave. Bye." she turned to walk away but he caught her hand just in time.

"Look Katara," he began, then Katara noticed the Panda Lily still in his hands.

"Wait," she interrupted, "what is that?"

"A Panda Lily. I found it for you." He held out his hand and Katara took it.

"Why Aang?"

"Because......." He started, his forehead sweating, "I wanted to ask you something."

"Aang.....what's going on?"

"Katara, will you marry me?"

Katara froze, the question burning in her mind. She knew her answer but couldn't choke out her answer. She opened her mouth but no sound came out.

"Katara, are you gonna say something?" He asked, "Katara?" He started to worry, had he done something wrong? "Well, if your not gonna answer me then I'm just gonna le......" All of a sudden, he felt a slight pressure on his lips. He looked down to see Katara kissing him.

When she stopped kissing she place her head on his chest and clung to him. "Yes," she breathed, "yes. Of course I'll marry you. I wouldn't marry anyone else."

Aang placed his arms around her and held her tighter, the Panda Lily remained in Katara's hands. They kept the Panda Lily as a symbol of their relationship and when they died, it was still there. When Aang first tried to tell Katara how he felt, he wanted to give her a Panda Lily and now when he proposed, he used a Panda Lily. To Katara and Aang, Panda Lilies symbolized their relationship and they never wanted to change that.

Fin.
