So this is love,
Sweaty palms: she'd move closer to him when it was cold trying to catch a little bit of warmth from his body and suddenly his palms had caught fire, making her jump and then laugh, he wasn't sure if she was laughing at him or something else either way he didn't like it.
Hot flashes: She'd be tending to the fire, ignoring him, and when she'd bend over the dress would stretch across her butt and without warning his whole being would burst into flames. The only great thing about that was when the Avatar and boomerang boy would jump up looking like cats slashed with water, confused and scared.
Racing heart beat: At times she would sit next to him and speak about silly girl things, he wasn't sure as to why he would stay seated beside her when she did that but he was beginning to think it was witchcraft. She'd smile at him, her eyes glazed over with happiness and her mouth curved into a smile that would make his heart beat so hard he thought it would burst any second now.
Dreams: For many weeks now he had dreaded sleep knowing that she would be haunting him even there in his subconscious mind, now he knew it had top be magic. It was almost like where ever he looked she was there, smiling, laughing or bending over (he didn't mind that too much), he wanted one night without her on his mind teasing him like she did.
Finally he had had enough and went to his Uncle to see what was wrong with him.
Zuko paced the floor while his uncle slipped his tea calmly listening to his impatient nephew rave on and on about the young water tribe girl, Katara.
Zuko stopped and looked over at his uncle, "What's wrong with me Uncle?" his eyes narrowed, "I bet the waterbender used magic, she used magic didn't she uncle? I'm sure it's magic."
Uncle Iroh not even bothering to look up answered his nephew, "Yes it is some form of magic Zuko." He ignored the boys 'I knew it' ad continued, "It's a little bit of magic called love." Iroh heard a crash and looked up to see his nephew on the ground having fainted. Iroh nodded his head, "Yes Zuko love can be painful."
