Hey everyone. So this is a new story of mine and I'll be taking requests. This is the morning after the wedding night. Everyone likes night time but have you ever thought about how akward the morning it? I have! So here it is. Enjoy!

Toph sighed into her pillow. She'd been soo exhausted the day before. Dancing, drinking, the speeches. Being the Earth Kingdom's finest was in every sense of the word, hard.

She had stumbled into bed and the rest of the night was a bit of a blur. She couldn't remember anything after that and with the pounding in her head; she knew she was going to lie in bed for a few more hours.

Toph rolled and her body hit something. Instinctively, her eyes opened. She became very still. She was on a bed; her feet were on piles of silk.

She was truly blind. Top closed her eyes again and listened. Her blindness had caused her to rely on every other sense, not just touch. Her sense of smell and hearing too.

She could hear heavy breathing. Her nose told her whoever was in her bed with her was male. She could tell from the scent. There was the jasmine lotion she used, the scent still very faint on the sheets. He smelt good though.

He smelt clean. There was a trace of sweat but it didn't smell 'yucky' to her. Spicy too. There were fiery tones there. Well someone's a very manly man. Toph hand lightly reached out to touch his arm. He asleep. She could have a bit of fun before she killed him.

Her hand hit a scar. Toph frowned lightly as she fingered it. Something about the feel of it was familiar. Very familiar. Despite her better judgment, Toph wandered over to his chest. Her hands found rock hard abs. Toph smiled. Interesting.

Her hands wandered further down and she heard a deep chuckle. Before she could draw it back, she felt a warm hand grab it.

'I won't do that if I were you. Not unless you want me to leave more bruises than I did last night.'

Again, Toph's eyes fluttered open. 'Zuko? What are you doing in my bed?!' Zuko chuckled again and this time, he wrapped both arms around her body. 'Actually, you're in my bed, Fire Lady Toph.' Toph spluttered. Suddenly, everything came rushing back to her. Her wedding, their first dance. Her first night with him.

She could feel her body heating up at those memories. Zuko laughed again. 'You remember last night huh? I'm sorry if you pushed you.'

He whispered into her ears. Toph scoffed weakly. 'I'm pretty sure I pushed back.' She adjusted some more and she felt him twitch.

'Easy Toph. Easy.' Zuko murmured lowly. Toph felt shivers run down her spine. 'We still have to meet with the advisors concerning the rest of the merger between Earth and Fire. It would look bad to be late.'

Toph turned to face him. They were lying side by side now and his hands were around her waist.

Toph planted a kiss on his jaw. 'I think we can stand to be late this once.' She whispered. 'Besides, it's our honeymoon. I don't know how they expect us to leave our bed.' Zuko nuzzled her neck. 'Probably the guys would tease us for weeks though.' Toph made a face.

'Not if they want to sleep peacefully.' She said back. Zuko chuckled. He leaned in to kiss her but at that moment there was a knock at the door. They both froze. The knock persisted again.

I know you're in there you two!'

Toph groaned at the sound of Katara's voice. 'I'm coming in whether you like it or not.' In a flash, Zuko left her arms and grabbed a bathrobe just in time for Katara to open the door.

'You know, you weren't bothered on your honeymoon, Sugar Queen.' Toph snapped as she pulled up the sheets.

'Well next time leave the Fire Nation.' She snapped back. 'You two are soo late. Aang's been discussing issues about world peace but everyone's wondering where you've been.'

Toph sat up, still dragging the sheet with her. 'We just woke up, Katara.' Zuko said as he went over to Toph's side.

Toph pouted in her bed. 'I hate meetings. Can't we just have a day of rest Zu?' She asked as he came to her side. Zuko took her hand and attempted to pull her up. She didn't budge.

'Toph!' Zuko groaned. Toph looked to the direction of his voice. 'What? Well we're in control of the Fire Nation right?' Zuko sighed. 'Not exactly.' Toph made a noise. 'But when it all comes down to it, we have the last say don't we?'

Zuko nodded before remembering that Toph couldn't see him. 'Yes Toph.' He replied. Toph sighed contently. 'See? There's no must about it so you can get lost Katara.' Zuko shook his head from side to side.

Zuko crouched down besides her and put Toph's hand on his face. 'Toph. You of all people know what we're facing here.' He murmured. 'You know how difficult it'll be to get our people to accept this. To get my people to accept this.' Toph's pout returned and Zuko gently tugged on her lower lip.

'I know you want more than anything to prove to your people that you made the right decision.' Toph still sulked for a bit before sighing.

'Let me have a bath and we'll see what they want.' She said. Zuko smiled and scooped her up. Katara, who was watching them with a smile stood in front of Zuko.

'No. You two aren't having a bath together. Only the gods know when you'll get out.' She said. Zuko frowned. 'But Katara, Toph's-'

'I'll be right here.' Katara said with finality. Zuko sighed. 'I'll be right down the corridor if you need me. I'll meet you in the throne room?' Toph nodded.

'On one condition.'

'Yes?'

'You promise to show me where my bruises are?'

'Every single one.'

Zuko nuzzled Toph again and she giggled. Zuko placed her on her feet before pulling her in and kissing her deeply. Toph's hands slipped around his neck pulling him even tighter. Toph could feel herself getting lost in the kiss and found herself wanting more of him.

'That's enough! That's enough!' Katara yelled. Zuko pulled back with a smirk at the reaction he'd stirred in his wife.

'Promise to behave?'

'I'll try.'

Toph leaned in for another kiss but Katara pulled him away. 'You're very adorable, yes. Get out!' Toph scowled at her and Zuko smiled. He gave her a kiss on the forehead before going out.

Katara looked at Toph who had the biggest blush she'd ever seen on the earth bender since she'd meet her.

'I don't even want to know.'
