The rest of them stood around the table, criticizing Sokka's painting. But Zuko, leaned against the wall watching on. He eventually lost interest in listening to everyone ramble on about how they didn't really look like the way that Sokka had portrayed them. He merely stared off into space, until something caught his eye. It was Katara.
She walked out of the house and onto the balcony, and out on the balcony was Aang. The young avatar stared off into the sunset. His head jerked up at the sound of Katara's foot steps approaching. He turned to her and smiled.
Zuko, in curiosity walked to the edge of the doorway, and hid himself, silently watching. His eyes remained fixated on Katara, as she smiled and a light blush ran over her cheeks.
The two young ones embraced. But this was not the type of embrace between two friends, there was something more there and Zuko could see it.
Aang suddenly pulled Katara into a steamy and passionate kiss. Sparks flew from the moment that their lips met. And to the young avatar and the water bender, time stood still and his world was finally complete.
But for the young Firelord, the opposite happened. Everything around him began to shatter. When Zuko saw Katara in a passionate kiss with the Avatar, he felt something that he had never felt before. His face grew hot a blood rushed to his face. He felt jealous and angry. But why?
He had Mai, one of the most beautiful young woman in the Fire Nation. He had everything he wanted. Or did he?
He didn't have the one thing that he wanted, he didn't have Katara. The one person who he really cared about. He cared for her in a way that he shouldn't. At that moment, Zuko realized that he loved her.
He loved everything about her. How she could see the good in everyone, even him. How she could kick anyone's ass that was stupid to mess with her. But he hated how she loved the Avatar.
He hated the way that Aang looked at her. The way he was kissing her right now. Zuko stared on at the happy couple as they looked each other lovingly in the eyes. Inside of him something snapped.
He didn't care about his relationship with Mai anymore. He didn't care about the truce and friendship that he shared with the Avatar. None of that mattered anymore. He was in love with Katara. And he would stop at nothing to win her over, no matter what it toke, she would be his.
So this is going to be my actually first and real fanfiction, that isn't a one shot. I am not sure how this is going to go, but I am pretty stoked about doing this so Yay!!
Just so you know, this takes place after the series finale, so no one can tell me that Zutara doesn't happen.
Reviews are hearted.
Thanks for reading.
