Hair Loopies
A/N: I thought this would be a cute Kataang one-shot.

A few days had past since Zuko had joined the GAang. The others were somewhat, sorta, almost getting used to him. Well, except for Katara.
Zuko was pretty awkward around Katara. It was like walking in a mine field. She might be worse to live with than Azula! And Zuko, trying as hard as he could not to make Katara angry, just puts his foot in his mouth sometimes. He doesn't mean to but he just doesn't think things through sometimes.
All of the others had left. Sokka, Toph, The Duke and a few others had gone off to find Momo after The Duke started playing with tiny explosive rocks around him. Aang was asleep lying on Appa's tail. It was just Zuko and Katara. The full moon shone bright in the temple and Katara would have enjoyed the night if Zuko wasn't there. She started to play with her hair. In particular, her hair loopies.
"You know, I never really understood the use of those things. Those hair loopies aren't really attractive or useful." Zuko said calmly. He wasn't thinking when he said that.
"They aren't supposed to be useful. You don't know a thing about beauty or water tribe culture. Hair loopies are very attractive!" She exclaimed. Who was he to be insulting her culture.
Her outburst angered Zuko. "I was just stating an opinion! Do you really have to nag about every little thing?" Zuko shouted. No one noticed Aang wake up. Aang rubbed his eyes and watched the two bicker.
"Your opinion doesn't mean anything!"
"Then why are you getting so over-emotional over this?"
That did it. After the words were out of Zuko's mouth, Aang, Zuko and Katara all knew how badly Zuko just messed up.
Katara sat up and stood. Her brow furrowed with anger. Zuko could swear he saw little flames dancing behind her ocean blue eyes. The blue eyes did nothing to extinguish her anger.
Her hands rose tantalizingly slow. Before Zuko knew it, he was being blood bended. Katara walked him over to the edge. Aang finally stood and walked over to Katara.
"I love your loopies Katara. I think they're beautiful." Aang whispered as he wrapped his arms around her waist. Katara's hold on Zuko relinquished as Katara giggled.
"Aw! Thanks Aang." She gave him a quick kiss on the cheek and walk over to her room. "See you in the morning Aang! And Zuko, you better thank Aang for saving your butt."
Zuko almost fainted. "This is more trouble than it's worth." He murmured.
A/N: So how was it? My attempt at Kataang fluff...
