Hey guys, this is the first fanfic I have ever written. Seeing as I love avatar as much as any one person can love a show i decided to make it my story.I am not and English major so some spelling mistakes are just par for the course. also when I am typing words such as the, then, and there I accidently reverse the e and the h making it look like teh or tehn sometimes. please ignore these. This story is set immediately after the kiss that ended the greatest show alive.

Katara pulled back from Aang and looked at the goofy boy she had once known. She had only kissed him twice before. Once was before the invasion and the second was outside a truely awful but amusing play. The first time it had happened Katara had been too stunned to say anything. It also doesn't help that Aang flew off immediately after the kiss leaving her standing there second time she had been in the middle of explaining to Aang that she was too confused to know how to react. Out of sheer anger at the play and befuddlement she ran off. This time she had initiated the kiss and she knew what it symbolized.

Aang was taken aback at first by Katar kissing him. He had figured he blew his chances after the play. Nonetheless he responded with all the feelings he could pull forward. They had locked lips until they heard Sokka from inside call out "Hey! Where are Katara and Aang?"

As they broke apart Aang looked up into Katara's beautiful blue eyes and asked her a very serious question... "Should we tell Sokka?"

Katara looked at him funny and asked sincerely "Tell him what?"

Aang was stunned for a moment. His thoughts started to race. What if the kiss had just been in congratulations and she hadn't been suggesting something more serious? What if this was a goodbye kiss for some reason? As he came out of his mental daze he saw her shaking with laughter.

"Aang I'm just kidding! Of course we tell Sokka. I plan on being next to you for the rest of my life. Don't you think he would figure it out eventually?" she told him, still shaking with silent laughter.

Aang whispered "I'll get you back for this" just as Sokka came walking out of the shop.

"What are you two up to?" He asked obviously not noticing the slight blush in both of thier faces or how close they were standing together. "Come on in. Everyone is waiting to see you"

As they walked into the tea shop they were met with the faces of thier closest friends. Suki, Toph, Iroh, Zuko, and Mai who they had never really met before. As they passed Toph she gave them a sneaky little smile. Aang immediately knew what it meant. Toph had felt them kiss outside through the vibrations of the earth.

Aang didn't care at all. He was too happy to even care. "Katara do you trust me?" He said as they made thier way to the open seats next to Suki.

"Of course i do Aang. Why?" She questioned quizically.

"Then just follow my lead." and with that he threw himself at Katara and pressed his lips to hers. True to her word she didn't hesitate and immediately kissed back. as they lingered on each others lips they heard the tea shop go silent.

"It's about time!" Toph yelled across the shop. Aang looked around and saw Zuko and Mai. They looked at Aang and Katara with smiles. Suki was speechless after getting a front row seat to thier announcement, or should i say demonstration.

"Free drinks on me for the rest of the night!" Iroh bellowed. Aang finally got the courage to look at the one face in the shop he had been most afraid of. He made eye contact with Sokka whos face did not portray any emotion. Sokka jerked his head at the back door and Aang took the hint and followed him outside alone.

Sokka turned on him and said, with malice in his voice and a look on his face that could scare Appa. Aang stood his ground and was met with a single question. Sokka asked, "Do you plan to marry her?"

Aang was taken aback. He had expected some kind of fight about siblings and best friends. He was even more suprised when his body auto-reponded "Yes" to Sokka's question. He of course knew that no girl could ever compare to Katara in his eyes but he had never thought about marriage before.

Sokka broke into a smile. "Thats all i needed to know" he said calmly. "Just remember to keep it appropriate around anyone please. I can't try to stop Katara if she wants to do something but i can sure as hell make sure she doesn't do it in front of me. You understand?"

Aang nodded and they went back into Iroh's shop.

A/N I know it isn't too long but i want an honest opinion first before i continue on. Any ideas are welcome.
