THis takes place before the events of my Modern!Zutara story that I will be posting here soonish. Not really any spoilers, I don't think :) This is not your typical Zutara jealousy fic! Be prepared for crackiness

Zuko was, simply put, jealous. He was curled up in the recliner in his uncle's living room. The young man sulked, flipping through the channels on the TV, as Iroh made tea and tried to understand his nephew's problem. "So, wait, Katara is what?"

Zuko sunk in his seat. "She's not hanging out with me anymore."

Iroh turned, shocked. "Katara? Your girlfriend? 'Not hanging out' with you?"

"Yeah."

Iroh walked out of the kitchen and looked at his nephew, who guarded his emotions so well that Iroh couldn't tell if he was angry, sad, or hurt. "Why not?"

Zuko scoffed. "She's too busy playing with..... it."

Iroh raised an eyebrow. "'It'?"

"Yes," Zuko growled. "It."

"Zuko... I'm afraid I don't understand."

Zuko threw the remote down and stood, turning to face his uncle. "I ask her to do something with me every day and does she wants to do anything? No! 'Sorry Zuko, I can't, I'm almost through this level!' It gets more time with her than I do and I'm her boyfriend!"

Iroh blinked. "Zuko.... am I to understand that Katara is spending more time with-" The doorbell rang. Iroh stared at Zuko for a moment. "I.... will get that."

Zuko slumped back down in the chair as Iroh left for the door. He opened it to find a smiling Katara. "Hey, Uncle Iroh. Is Zuko here?" Iroh stepped aside. "Yes, he is. And he is very upset with you."

Katara smirked as she crossed the threshold. "Oh, I'm aware." She followed Iroh into the living room. Zuko grumbled to himself when he saw her. Her smirk grew and she moved behind him and ruffled his hair.

"Poor little Zuzu is jealous of my brother's Wii, aren't you, honey?" She kissed his head and he sunk into the chair again at Iroh's incredulous look. "Jealous.... of a video game system?"

Zuko looked up at his uncle from under his bangs. "Guitar Hero World Tour..... to be exact."

Katara laughed at her boyfriend's confession as Iroh returned to the kitchen mumbling about idiot nephews.
