DISCLAIMER: *sigh* this is the part where I tell you I don't own Avatar the Last Air bender. I do, however, also tell you that the Last Air Bender film sucked and that M. Night Shyamalan is terrible at his job. Thank you.

(Authors Note) Hey guys! I'm kinda new here, so… Yeah. This is my first KatAang fanfic, but it's not my first fanfic, so it can't be too bad, can it? Oh, and this takes place one month after the end of the long war. ***He moves in with the Southern Water tribe and starts a new life of peace and tranquility*** I think you could figure it out from there. (Constructive Criticism needed) 2 part story. Prepare for Kataang fluffiness!one!

A KatAang story (Avatar the Last Air bender)

Happy 6 Months!

It's been six months since Aang's life changed drastically. Six months since the young Avatar defeated Phoenix King Ozai. Six months since Fire Lord Zuko became one of his closest friends. Six months since the long, long, and deadly war was finally over. And although Aang ran these thoughts in his head over and over while meditating, one special thought was embedded in his mind, and it's been there ever since he got out of the iceberg. Love. Six months since Aang found love. When young Aang became the luckiest guy in the universe. When the painful memories became bearable, and gradually, became evanescent, because he knew that she would always give him hope. Katara...

It was 2 hours until sunrise, and Aang was still wide awake. He was meditating his arrows off, when a different thought, or urge, struck him. It struck him very, very hard. Tomorrow was his and Katara's 6 month anniversary! How could he forget an important milestone in his and his girlfriend's relationship? Oh spirits, how was he supposed to get a gift and other things on time? This was bad, and he needed to fix it. Aang never really liked to do things at the last minute, but this time, he was afraid he had no other choice. Aang left a note on his bed so no one would get worried. It read: "Be right back. Off to Ba Sing Se to visit Iroh and get some tea." Aang hated lying, but he looked at it as a half-truth, because Iroh was exactly who he needed to see. Aang originally wanted to see Roku... However, Katara or someone else could just walk into his tent and know something was up if he decided to go to the spirit world. Plus the rays of light would wake everyone up. Iroh was just the person he needed to see... At least without creating a lot of trouble.

Aang silently walked outside where Appa was, careful not to wake anyone up. If he woke anything or anyone up, he knew it was all over. Aang knew where he needed to go.

"Appa! Wake up, buddy! Appa!" Aang whispered. Appa only groaned. "Come on, Appa!" Aang hissed. Aang tried shaking the bison, but Appa didn't even budge, move or at least open a single eye.

After a few more minutes, Appa finally awoke. Aang got on and whispered Yip Yip. Appa was still a little groggy, very sleepy, and entirely reluctant to fly, so they flew in up and down zig-zags. Fortunately, within moments, they were in the sky and no one even had a clue they were gone...

3 hours later...

It was already noon and Aang left Appa outside the Jasmine Dragon as he walked in. As usual, the place was filled with customers, it smelled of the best jasmine tea, and Iroh was sitting behind the counter. Aang took a seat in front of the counter. He smiled.

"Hello, General Iroh! How are you today?" Aang asked casually. Iroh was drinking tea of course.

"Hello, young Avatar. What brings you to my tea shop on such a beautiful day like this? Is something on your mind?" Iroh asked. He studied Aang's expression, without looking quizzical.

"Yes, actually. Tomorrow is me and my girlfriend's 6 month anniversary. I only remembered today, and now I don't have a gift for her. The closest flower shop is roughly a few miles away from here. What should I do, Iroh?" Aang sounded helpless. His once joyful grey eyes were now glum and solemn.

"Ah, a 6 month anniversary is an occasion one must not forget. Worry not, Aang. The most appropriate and romantic gift to give your girlfriend is something made of paper, with all of your heart and soul poured into it. Is it that pretty water tribe girl you're seeing? She is very pretty" Iroh smiled.

"Thanks. So you're saying I should make a turtle-duck piece of origami? Or paint her a picture? I can't do either... Iroh, I-I... love... her. What do I do to show her how I feel?" Aang frowned, now discouraged. His face was in this hands, and he looked down.

" No, Aang. Look deeper into your heart. That is my best advice." Iroh patted Aang's shoulder softly and walked away to serve another tea-loving customer.

"Deeper into my heart? What could I do to a single piece of paper to pour my heart and soul into? Ahh!" Aang was now so frustrated. He's been thinking all day and now he just had another thing to sit around and think about. Aang got on Appa and headed for home. Everyone must have been worried.
