Aang-18 ½ Katara-20 Sokka-21

Aang and co. were setting up camp when Katara walked up to Aang, "Hey you want to go swimming Aang?" Katara asked. Aang stood up from setting up his tent as he adjusted it slightly but caused it to collapse. Katara giggled a bit and Aang blushed rubbing the back of his head, "I'd love to, but I gotta finish this first." Katara laughed a little more, "All right, but when you're done meet me by the river," she said as she ran off to change.

Aang sighed as he went back to the tent. He finished it in about 5 minutes. He ran to the river and stripped off his shirt. He looked around for Katara but she wasn't in sight. Aang shrugged, he figured she went off somewhere and will be back, he dove into the river; he made it all the way to the bottom 15 feet down. He opened his eyes and saw Katara swimming to the surface. Her silky hair flowed in the current. He went into a daze and tried to sigh; lost in the water tribe girl's beauty he forgot he was underwater. He choked on the water and started to struggle for the surface. Katara looked in his direction and swam as fast as she could towards him. She surfaced for air and then dove back down. She surfaced just offshore dragging Aang out of the water. She placed him a good distance from the waves. She used her waterbending to pull the river water from Aang's lungs.

She placed an ear to his chest, "Oh, no!" Katara exclaimed. She started to breath air into his lungs. Katara backed away and Aang took in a small breath. He then got a big smile on his face.

"What are you smiling about?" Katara said nervously, her face beet red.

"You're a good kisser," he said slyly. Katara turned beet red. Then Aang grabbed both of her arms and flipped them over. Katara looked around and then up at him, "Aang! What if…" she was cut off.

"Appa's keeping him busy, trust me," Aang said.

Sokka is pinned to the ground by Appa's front paw. Sokka is trying to shield himself with his forearms but Appa just keeps licking him like a hyperactive, 10 ton, puppy.

Katara leaned her head off of the ground. Aang grabbed the back of it and pulled her into a deep romantic kiss. She broke the kiss and her face turned even redder.

"Well?" Aang asked with a smile.

"I…I…" Katara stuttered. She didn't bother to finish, she simply grabbed the back of Aang's head and pulled him into another kiss…
