Lovers sad Tale
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters in this fic, but the poem is mine!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Katara sat on her bedroll and sighed looking at the sky. She felt so alone out here, Aang and Sokka were in a separate clearing. After she turned 17 it wasn't appropriate to be in the same sleeping vicinity. She scoffed. It wasn't like she was going to rape Aang. She winced and sighed again. She looked up at the stars and smiled slightly. Besides, She didn't want Aang, she already had a lover. Not that her brother would ever know that though.
She looked at the sky hoping to see his face, but knowing she wouldn't made her heart lose it's pace.
She looked over the moon and over the stars, she started to worry that he wasn't coming tonight, after all it was getting very late and he was usually here by now. She felt her heart clench at the thought that he wouldn't come. After all tonight was the night.
She looked at the heavens not giving a care, still knowing he wasn't there.
She wished to the stars for his mouth to be on hers, and for once all her wishes occurred.
Suddenly, Katara felt herself pressed into her bedroll by a hard familiar body. Her lips were crushed under the hot soft lips of her lover. She smiled and kissed back, her hands roaming the chiseled body above her. Hands also roamed her slender form in familiar comfort. She moaned slightly into the kiss and sighed. They broke off for oxygen and looked into each other's eyes, gasping for breath. Katara smiled at the mysterious man and her breath caught when he smiled back at her, In that moment she knew she was in love with this man.
He kissed her softly being timid and shy, but then they shared a kiss that made both there mouths dry.
She looked in his eyes knowing he was the one, as well as she knew that there was a sun.
Katara suddenly felt an overwhelming need to be a part of this man, to be with this man in the most intament ways possible, to feel His body move in and out of her. She searched His eyes for a sign that he wanted her as well, what she saw there made her smile blissfully. A whirlpool full of want, need, and love. She kissed him tenderly and he deepened it. His hand found the back of her head and suddenly a tender kiss turned into one of full blown passion and need.
They kissed as if they could feel the others soul and heart through their mouths alone. Clothes went flying everywhere as they both craved more and more skin. Minutes later sweet whispers, moans, and whimpers could be heard.
They locked together in a sweet lovers embrace, that made both there hearts quicken in pace.
They both finished with a chorus of light screams.
"Katara!"
"Z-Zuko!"
They collapsed around and entangled together. Katara looked into golden eyes filled with love. She returned the love with her Crystal blue eyes.
"Zuko, I-I love you, I just wish we could..." She turned her head away as tears came to her eyes. She felt a rough hand pull her chin towards him. He lay a chaste kiss on her lips.
"Katara, I...Love you so much I wish we could be together like this forever, but-but..." he trailed off, His eyes too being filled with tears.
Sobs were heard and they kissed while they cried. They kissed with passion and love, With desperate need and sadness.
They kissed one last time with a passion so strong, for they both knew they would be separated at dawn.
Zuko and Katara fell asleep in each others arms. The sun rose over the hills and the world awoke. Katara opened tired eyes and groped for the warmth that had suddenly dissipated from her side. She opened her eyes fully in panic to realize hat Zuko was indeed gone. Tears came to her eyes as she frantically looked for any sign of him. She noticed letters in the soft earth near her head. She looked at the letters hesitantly.
Katara, I'm so sorry, I love you more than anything else in the world. I wanted to be with you forever and ever, but we both know that is not possible. I will make it easier for you by leaving and never coming back, please don't search for me, if you were to find me I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to leave again. It is better this way, you will forget about me one day and you will get married and have children, please for me, be happy. Love, Zuko.
Katara felt the wetness on her cheeks before she realized she was crying, her tears hit the earth beside the note leaving little round black spots. She curled herself into a little naked ball and cried, she cried for the love she had lost, the life she could of had, the happiness that she would never have, and the unfairness of it all. She cried and cried until only racking sobs were left.
She woke alone the next morning and began to cry, while she looked at the sky, as if to ask why?
Katara screamed at the sky in her grief and anger. Aang and Sokka found her after she had collapsed from exhaustion. Hiccups escaped her chapped lips as she lay in the dirt beside the dreaded words, Sokka held his sister and asked repeatedly what was wrong, but she was un-responsive. Aang knelt by the both of them and spotted the note left. He got Sokka's attention and showed him the engraved writing. They both read and looked at the broken girl in Sokka's arms.
Would she ever be the same?
Zuko watched from the tree's and wept. He wept for everything Katara had wept for, he wept for his lost life. And he wept while he walked away because he knew for a fact that he and Katara would never be alright again. You are never alright after having a taste of heaven and having it ripped away from your grasp.
They would never be alright, they would never again be together, neither one would really live without the other, every night they would sleep and have dreams of touches and kisses, and each morning they'd die as they lost each others faces.
A/N: I was looking through my poems and found one I had wrote a long time ago called "Lovers Sad Tale" And suddenly I got this idea to make it into a Zutara fic...I think I'll just leave it as a one-shot...Idk what do you huys think? REVIEW!...please?
