A/N: Hey guys! This is my first ever fic/story. Things to know... Lin (30) and Tenzin (31)

Chapter 1

Tomorrow was finally June 16th, one of most awaited day of everyone in Republic City, especially a certain pair. A special pair in which involved a certain temporary on leave chief and a new representative of the Air Nomads for the Council. Tomorrow was a day specifically for love, it was the day of Lin Beifong and Tenzin's wedding.

June 16 was always a big day for Lin and Tenzin. Just fourteen years ago, Lin and Tenzin had their first date and kiss at Narook's Noodle Shop. About three years after, they visited the Southern Air Temple to get away from their annoying family, and unbeknownst to them, it was the day they had first made love. Although, through out their lives, this day was mainly of happiness, exactly seven years ago tomorrow, Lin had a near death experience, it was the day she had gotten her two scars on her flawless face.

Nearly Seven Years Ago

"Chief, it has been reported that the Triple Threat Triad has been outside the dock of the ship that goes straight to Air Temple Island," Saikhan nervously told the deprived Chief Toph Beifong.

"Alright, since this will be our only chance to confront them, form the best team you can make right now, make sure Captain Beifong will lead this mission. We need to take this head on," Toph said without thinking, she really wanted to get them into their cells that already had their names on it.

"Yes, Chief."

"Officers, check the perimeter, remember to look out for any sign of the triad. We cannot risk losing this misson." Lin then quickly took off her sole of her boot and used her seismec sense. Nothing. Something felt off.

"WAIT. Do not move, something is wrong, I don't know what but -" Lin was then, suddenly, hit with two sharp ice daggers, right across the right side of her face.

Despite what had just happened, Lin fought, she got her cables and shot them towards the direction in which the ice daggers came from, it then wrapped the waterbender of the triad and threw him to the building, head first, he groaned, then went unconcious. She fought with her men, trying to bring the triad down, which they succeded. Next thing she knew, Lin fell to the ground, she felt blood coming down her face, and surprisingly felt something wet going down her legs. What's going on?

"Lin Beifong, how is she, what room is in she? Is she okay," Tenzin had a lot of things going through his mind. He was the first to be notified about Lin, was the first to visit her, and no one knew of her condition.

"She came in an hour ago, she had been pale, her face had been bleeding, and she also believed that she had been bleeding between her legs." The doctor said as he came closer to Tenzin. Why was she bleeding between her legs?

"What exactly happened?"

"Her officers said that she and others went to check out a lead on the triads. When they were about to check out the perimeter, the Chief had been hit two ice daggers on the right side of her face. And then she had somehow been hit in her inner left thigh, most likely caused by an earthbender."

"Oh Lin, why in the spirits did you have to go on this mission."

"Well, I'm sorry Twinkletoes Jr., I instructed her to go. Have you forgotten that Lin would of done this no matter what happened?"

"Top-"

"Not now, Tenzin." Toph then faced in the direction of the doctor, "When can we see her?"

"You can go now, if you two would like."

"Come on, Twinkletoes Jr."

Present Day

Tenzin smiled, no matter how old he and his father were, Toph always managed to call them Twinkletoes.

"Why are you all smiley all of a sudden," A smirk had just appeared on Lin's face.

Tenzin looked at Lin, then to the bundle of joy in her arms. Seven months ago, Lin had given birth to their first child, a daughter named Jinora. Ironically, tomorrow would be a year in which they had found out Lin had been expecting.

"Oh, I was just reminincing of the events of what happened years exactly from tomorrow," a frown slowly appeared on his face, "Then I was thinking about what happened the day of the accident and how your mother called me Twinkletoes."

Lin came up to his chest, he wrapped his arm around her waist, the two then looked at their little Jinora, then to each other to look into each other's eyes. After a moment of silence, Lin spoke, "Tenzin, that happened years ago, stop being a sad tiger lily."

"I know, I know. It's just th-" Lin cut him off by kissing him softly on his lips.

Just as Tenzin was about to deepen the kiss, Jinora started to cry, indicating that she was tired. It was nearly midnight and just hours away from the big event. Lin was the first to talk "I guess she doesn't want any siblings anytime soon. Well it's our bedtime, Baldy, especially since tomorrow's such a big day, I need my beauty sleep."

"I guess not. Well. I've been waiting for this day for quite a long while. So good night," then he gave her a short and sweet kiss. Soon, Lin headed to the door. "And Lin?"

"Yes, Tenzin?"

"You're already beautiful, so sleep won't do much" Tenzin smirked as he saw her cheeks redden.

"Whatever, Baldy." Lin walked out the door with a slowly drifting Jinora in her arms.
