I'm so excited. Kataang week! Yay for the fluffiness! 33
Sorry for the late entry, I had guests over the 19th, and my mum wouldn't let me use the computer.

Day One
Prompt: Umbrella

It had all started when Sokka had suggested they take a walk so he could "clean up the camp".
"Sokka, I don't believe you. You won't clean up camp." Katara crossed her arms over her chest and gave Sokka a raised eyebrow.
Sokka put his hands up in defense. "Listen, all I'm saying is that you've been doing all the work around camp this week, and I think you should have a little break. Now shoo, go out for a while. Take a nice long walk, take your time." He made a sweeping motion. "I got things here covered."
"It's okay, Sugar Queen. I'll make sure he picks up." Toph punched Sokka in the shoulder. He winced and rubbed where Toph had punched him.
"Yup." He said in a pained voice. Aang chuckled.
"Come on, Katara. Let's go." Aang took her hand and led her out of the camp. Once they were gone, Sokka and Toph snickered.
"Phase one of 'Get-Katara-And-Aang-Together' now complete." Toph high-fived Sokka.

"I'm sensing rain. Let's go back." Katara turned around and began a brisk walk back to camp. Aang caught up with her and caught her by the arm.
"Katara, it's okay. It's not gonna rain." He cast a look at the clear blue sky. "See, no clouds." He turned her around and began the walk up the path again, arms still linked.
Katara huffed. "Waterbender's instinct." She grumbled, with a nervous glance at the sky.
Aang produced a small blanket and spread it out on the grass next to the path. "I found peaches." He air bended himself over to a small peach tree, and plucked a couple of ripe peaches from the branches. When he got back to Katara, he saw she was standing up, shielding herself from the rain.
"Aang, I told you it'd rain." She smiled smugly. He walked over to her, and pulled out his glider.
"I'll be your umbrella." He smiled warmly. "I'll protect you. From anything."
It was one of those moments, in which the air bender seemed to be very wise beyond his years. In a flash, he was in the air, gliding above her as she walked back to camp. "Are you sure you don't mind?" She asked, worriedly. He laughed.
"I'm sure. I haven't been able to glide around like I used to, being in the Fire Nation and all."
When they got to camp, Sokka looked disappointed. He had expected them to both realize the other liked them, and finally see the light. He was a little off. "Soo." He strutted up to them, while Aang came down for a gentle landing at Katara's side. "Katara, you don't look like you got wet from the storm at all." He commented.
"I had my umbrella with me." Katara smiled, and gave Aang a peck on the cheek.
"Get a room!" Sokka grumbled, and as soon as he was away from Aang and Katara, high-fived Toph. Then, to ruin the moment of glory, Sokka heard Katara's voice.
"I knew he wouldn't clean!"
