Another KatAang Fan fic, all the same events happened before this story, and some same events will happen during the story but, I'll change it up a little and make it more of my own. Still not concerned about grammar and punctuation so no flames about that.


'Where is he?' Katara asked herself, staring into another empty room in the western air temple

Zuko and Aang had demonstrated what they had learned from the sun warriors earlier that day. After that Aang said he was off to meditate and she's been looking for him for about an hour now

'Where would he go to meditate?' She asked herself again, walking down a hallway that led to a large garden. When she reached the end she walked into a large patch filled with white, orange and yellow lilies. She smiled when she saw a figure laying in the grass on his back looking at the sky (or at least what he could see of the sky due to the large Cliffside obstructing some of his view) which was now turning a nice bright orange color, caused by the setting sun. "Hey Aang" She said cheerfully as she walked over to him, the tall flowers tickled her legs as she walked.

"Hello Katara" He happily replied, tilting his head slightly to look at her. He gave her a friendly smile before returning his gaze to the sky

"May I join you?" She asked, already knowing the answer. She knew Aang would never say no to her

"Of course" He answered, scooting over a little and patting some of the grass and flowers down so she could lay next to him.

She rested herself on her back next him and folded her arms behind her head

They sat there in silence, not a awkward silence just a staring up at the sky next to the person you love kind of silence. Every once in a while she would glance at him out of the corner of her eye. She looked at his foggy gray eyes that were focused on the sky above, she looked at his nose that reminded her of a button, she watched as his chest rose and fell as he inhaled and exhaled and she followed the arrow tattoos that ran up his arm along his newly formed muscles. "Wa'cha thinking about?" She finally decided to ask

He looked at her and smiled 'spirits how she loved his smiles' "I'm not really thinking about anything" He stated simply "I'm just laying here in a patch of flowers, in the western air temple next to my best friend"

Katara grinned to herself, she didn't know whether to feel happy or sad about his 'best friend' statement

"What about you? What are you thinking about?" He asked

She couldn't remember, she started off thinking about her Dad and Gran Gran back at her home in the south pole and that led to thinking about something else and that something else made her think about Aang, like everything always did. "I was thinking about home" She answered 'it wasn't a complete lie'

"Oh.." He said sadly "I'm sorry Katara"

"For what Aang?" She asked, looking over at the sad expression on his face

He let out a long depressing sigh "Well I cant help but feel like its my fault your not home right now, if I had defeated the fire lord like I was supposed to, then you would be with your family and your tribe." He answered, looking down at his lap to avoid her gaze "I'm sorry"

"Aang…" She sighed "Its not your fault" She replied softly, sitting up and cupping her hand on the side of his face to make him look up at her. "Its nobody's fault, we all tried our best but the fire nation was one step ahead of us" She pulled him into a tight hug "You really need to stop being so hard on yourself" She rested her head on his shoulder and breathed in his scent. He smelt like the air does right before a big storm, moon peaches and also the flowers they were laying in.

"Thank you Katara" He whispered, hearing her exhale and felt her warm breath tickle his neck. Then he heard her inhale through her nose deeply and he chuckled.

"What's so funny?" She asked as she pulled away from him with a puzzled/annoyed look on her face

"Its nothing but…did you just smell me?" He asked slyly , watching as a faint blush spread across her cheeks which made him laugh a little more

"N-No" She lied, switching her attention to the flowers next to her so she wouldn't have to look into his eyes.

He smiled and put his hand on her shoulder "Just so you know, you smell good too… Like the air after it rains and chocolate… oh and flowers too" He blushed a little and her face turned beat red "but next time you decide to smell somebody, be just a little more discrete about it" He added which earned him a playful shove from Katara.

They both laid back onto the smooshed down flowers and began telling stories about there lives before they met each other.

About an hour passed and the stars were showing brightly in the sky

"Wow, I'm surprised Sokka got out of there alive" Aang said after Katara had finished her story

"Yea Sokka was pretty lucky that day, although his luck ran out when Gran Gran found out where he went" They both laughed

A long silence came between them as they both gazed up at the stars

"Just think Katara, in a few more months you'll be back home along with your brother" He said, looking over at her and smiling. He knew he would be miserable after she left but knowing she was happy would me his life somewhat tolerable.

Katara was confused when Aang did not include himself in with her and Sokka "Yea I know, and you'll be there too.. right?" She frowned when she watched him shake his head

"I'll be able to visit once in a while but I'll be traveling a lot. Problems wont just disappear after the war ends, I'll have to help rebuild and settle the disputes between towns and nations" He said matter-of-factly

"Then I'll be right there next to you" She said, turning what she just said into a fact then anything else with the tone she used

"Katara.." He sighed "I cant let you do that" He said sadly

"Why not?" She whined, propping herself up on one elbow to look at him.

"Katara I've already uprooted your life once, I'm not going to do it again"

"You didn't uproot anything Aang, I love traveling with you. Sure I miss my home a little but its only natural. I did spend the first fourteen years of my life there after all" She stated "Aang you've literally opened up my eyes to the world and I've told myself that the only place that I ever want to be is by your side and I'm sure Sokka and Toph feel the same way" She finished, pulling him up to look at her and the seriousness written all over her face. "Aang I want you to promise me something"

"What's that Katara?" He asked, feeling her hand move from his shoulder to his chin 'she been touching my face a lot today' he thought to himself

"Just say you promise and I'll tell you" She said softly yet stubbornly

"Katara I'm not going to promise you something that I don't even know about"

"Aang please…Just say it" She said seductively, stroking his cheek with her thumb

He sighed, defeated "I promise" He whispered, placing his hand on the one on his face and bringing it down in between them. "Now what am I promising"

"That you'll never go anywhere without me"

"What!! Katara th-"

"Aang you promised " She said in a I-got-you kind of way "You've never broken a promise to me before, are you really going to start now"

"No,.. but Katara I-"

"Don't you like me? Don't you want me to come with you?" She asked, trying to sound hurt, but in the back of her mind she already knew he would give in. She had won just like she had planned

"Alright Alright…You win" He surrendered, laying back onto the ground

"Don't act so happy about it" She joked, laying down next to him

He laughed and she smiled

"Aang!!.." Somebody yelled, who's voice was immediately recognized as Zuko's "Aang where are you" he asked loudly

"Over here" Aang said loudly, sitting up from his place on the ground

"Oh uhh hey…" Zuko spoke "Sokka and I have been looking for you and Katara, but seeing as you are here I'm guessing she's right next to you" He stated

"lucky guess" She said bitterly, sitting up beside Aang

Zuko rubbed the back of his head "not a guess, merely an observation. Like Sokka said earlier 'wherever Aang is Katara is, its like there conjoined at the hip' " He said smugly, happy to give her a little taste of her own medicine

"Zuko what do you want?" She hissed, giving him the death glare but wasn't exactly sure he could see it due to the lack of light

"Sokka sent me to tell you to get back to camp…that and he wants Katara to make dinner" He stated before disappearing back the way he came.

After he left Katara let out a long sigh of frustration

"He's trying you know, this isn't exactly easy for him ether" Aang said, looking at the anger in her eyes

"Aang how can you trust him so easily" She asked, looking into his eyes and softening her look a little

"Well I don't exactly trust him, but I do believe him when he says he's changed" Aang stated, putting a comforting hand on her shoulder

"I believed him back in Ba Sing Se and do you know what happened?" She asked, feeling tears start to build up in her eyes "I-I almost lost you Aang.." She stuttered "and it was all because of him..."

He pulled her into a hug as she started to weep 'Shh' he whispered into her ear, trying to calm her down "Katara I'm sorry" He cooed, not knowing why he was apologizing but for some reason it just felt right

"I just don't want anything like that to happen ever…ever again" She said, sobbing into his shoulder

He stroked her back slowly and gently, trying to calm her down. Her crying began to cease

"You ok?" He finally decided to ask after many moments of silence

"Yes, I'm better now. Thank you" She replied, pulling out of the hug and giving him a small smile

He nodded and stood up "C'mon" He said happily, extending out his hand to help her up "I'll help you make dinner"

She smiled and took his hand. They walked back to camp side by side, nether of them noticing that there hands were still in the others.
