"Ugh, why'd he go and do that?" Aang asked Momo as they sat against tree in the forest just outside the Western Air Temple. It was late but not quite sunset, the grass around him was mostly living, a deep, lush color of green. However there were a few patches of which had dried to a light brown color. It was comfortably warm and there wasn't much of a breeze to cause any chill. The young airbender was staring at his small furry companion almost pleading for an answer; the flying lemur's only response was to tilt his head to one side then fly off after a bug that buzzed over head. "Thanks a lot Momo." Aang sighed in disappointment and closed his eyes, resting his head on the smooth bark of the tree. He thought back to the day prior, back to when he was training with Zuko, back to the moment that made everything so confusing.
~Flashback~
It was just moments until sunset, the day had started to cool down but it was still warm at the temple. The stone flooring of the balcony at which they trained was cool, random scorch marks had been made all about it from the two bender's training. The two bender's in question had just finished another kata, they both landed on their right foot with significant force creating a blast of flames to rise from the floor. They stood in that stance for a couple of seconds, Aang was shirtless and, ever so slightly, was panting, sweat lightly covered his torso and his bare feet had a layer of ash upon them. Zuko, however, wore his usual attire of a dark tunic with a deep red trim. He wasn't panting, nor was he sweating and his feet were not bare like the airbender's were. "Aang, I think we should take a break." Zuko softly mentioned from his student's right; the firebender had a strange look upon his face, one that looked almost worried.
Aang looked up at Zuko with a beaming smile. "You mean it?" He asked excitedly, the sun light enhancing his features even more.
"That's what I said isn't it?" Zuko replied quickly sounding almost annoyed from the question. He stood there wondering what the young hero had meant by the statement when the tattooed monk chuckled. "What?" The short tempered firebender demanded from the younger boy.
"Well, you never let us take a break. Last time we trained it was from sun up to sun down," The young airbender answered with a smirk on his face. Still keeping his smile, he sat on the stone flooring of the balcony then laid back, feeling the cold floor upon his back. He closed his eyes to try and get some rest not noticing that Zuko had moved to kneel over him until he felt a warm breath on his face. Aang's eyes shot open and he was looking straight into older boy's deep amber eyes, not even an inch from his own. He tried to back away, but seeing how he was laying on a stone floor little distance was made between the two of them, not sure what was going through the firebender's head, all the young teen could manage to say was, "Um, hi there Zuko," followed by a nervous smile.
Zuko's eyes widened, the sun was setting by now causing the firebender's eyes to look even more luminescent, showing a glow of sharp gold in the deep amber color, making the young avatar feel something strange in his gut. The former prince also blushed heavily, causing the avatar's previously mention feelings to intensify ever so slightly. After a second passed, the older boy's facial expression started to lax but the blush stayed, barely fading, "Aang…" Zuko started closing his eyes and letting out a small, almost unnoticeable, defeated, sigh. After the exhale of air, he opened his eyes, looking at the young hero for a moment. "Aang I've been a little confused recently." The former prince averted his gaze for just a second, then he looked back at his newly made friend with fierce concern. "But even though I've been confused there's one thing I'm sure of." He stopped once more then shot up looking around; Aang took this quick moment to try and scoot away but didn't move more then an inch before Zuko looked back down at him. The airbender froze in place, still nervous about his new teacher's intentions. "Aang, I think I love you," Zuko said, blushing like mad, staring at the bald monk with a look that seeped of fear and guilt.
Aang sat up slowly, not looking at the older teen who had just revealed a heavy secret to him. Instead, he stared wide eyed straight ahead, trying to focus his vision on anything to make sure he didn't look up at his new teacher and friend. The only reply to the ex-prince's words was, "I think I'm gonna get some sleep, night Zuko." Aang then got up and ran as fast he could to his room, slamming the strong wooden door behind him. He rested himself heavily against the door, sliding down till he was sitting on the stone floor, confused and stressed.
~End flashback~
The tattooed teen opened his eyes noticing that his soft furred flying lemur had returned and fallen asleep, curled up against his leg. The sun was now setting putting an orange glow upon the forest, making the dried dead grass glow with a bright amber color. All the airbender could think when seeing the grass was 'It looks just like Zuko's eyes… they are pretty, aren't they? Wait, what!?' Aang huffed, frustrated at his own mind, and scratched the top of Momo's head, feeling the soft, smooth fur on his finger tips. "This' gonna be awkward."
