I do NOT own Avatar: the Last Airbender, just the love for Mai and Zuko. =]

This story does not contain any sex so if that's what you were hoping for, I'm sorry.

Maybe I will do one once I get the hang of writing good stories. LOL

Sweet Dreams For His Angel.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mai laid on her clean silky bed and looked at the ceiling. It was 1:24 AM but she couldn't get herself to sleep. Damn! she thought. Why the hell is it so hard for me to get some rest now? Usually, Mai would be sleeping like a baby but something or someone was keeping her up.

"Mai?" someone opened her door and said her name. "Are you still awake?" the voice asked. She knew who it was... Zuko.

She raised her weary head up. "Yes" she asnswered quietly. "I couldn't go to sleep."

Zuko walked over to her bedside and sat down. "Why not?"

Mai sighed and looked at his concerned face. "I'm lonely."

Zuko got up and laid beside her. "Lonely? What do you mean?" His voice showed that he was truly concerned for her.

"I want you to lay in my bed with me...every night." She gasped because she had make it sound seductive.

Zuko swallowed hard. "Sweetheart, we aren't married..." Zuko pulled the blanket over Mai more so she wouldn't be cold.

"I don't care!" Mai shouted so loud that it scared Zuko. " I want you to lay with me. Please.." Mai looked at him with tears in her eyes.

She needs me, Zuko thought. Zuko smiled and pulled her closer. "Okay."

Mai smiled and ran her hand over his scarred skin. "Thank you."

Zuko laughed and pulled her head into his chest. "You're welcome, my angel..."

His angel, Mai thought. I'm his angel and no one elses. Mai closed her amber colored eyes and listened to his breathing.

'Sweet dreams, Mai." Zuko whispered and kissed the top of her head. Her hair smelled of Tropical Fruits and her body smelled like cinnamon... his favorite.

"Sweet dreams.." Mai answered and drifted of into sleep in her lover's arms.
