A/N: Okay, I know Palace Couple is unfortunately on hiatus, but I swear, I'll update as soon as I can, I just need to get my ideas out for this new story first. Anyway, I just wanted to say that, like Palace Couple which was based on Goong with a tiny twist of my own in the very beginning, this story too will be based on another drama, called Full House.
A/N2: Also, Just so all you people know, I was actually originally gonna base a Zutara Story on Full House instead of Goong at first. But then, I got really interested in Goong and decided to go with that one. But I was just a new amateur back then and didn't realize how incredibly boring Goong really is. So anyway, I hope you enjoy this one, which will hopefully be better then Palace Couple.
RRRRIIIINNNNGGGG
The silver and shiny alarm clock rang. Almost immediately, an arm shot up from the ivory colored sheets on the bed and hit the alarm clock; not only stopping the ringing, but sending it a few feet across the bright sunlit room. Scattered around on the floor were dirty pieces of clothing that needed to be picked up. A few minutes later, a well built body rose up from under the covers revealing his bare chest as he got up from his long slumber. Tiredly rubbing his eyes, the young man yawned, stretched, and got out of his bed and dragged his feet toward the bathroom.
Another day, another interview filled day. Great. The young man thought as he opened the door after he got dressed. All of a sudden, bright flashes and clicks and questioning voices surrounded him. His eyes immediately widened as questions were threw at him.
"Mr. Zuko Bei, what's the relationship between?" one interviewer asked among others.
"Mr. Zuko Bei, can you explain your relationship with this woman?" another interviewer asked pointing at a newspaper photograph.
"Mr. Zuko Bei, Mr. Zuko Bei, Mr. Zuko Bei…" many other photographers and interviewers impatiently called out.
Trying to make his way through the crowd, Zuko desperately covered his face from the flashes.
Meanwhile, a tan colored arm carelessly reached for the water carton and poured herself a cup of water. A tan skinned girl with a bed-head wearing sweats picked up the glass of water and brought the cup up to her lips and took a drink. Finishing up the cup of water, she slammed it down on the messy kitchen counter and slowly thought to herself.
"Ugh! What the…!!" the young girl yelled to herself and walked over to her overly messy living room.
"That crazy retard, I mean, why'd he have to come back?!" the girl yelled again as her voice echoed through the empty halls of her mansion. "I mean, if he left like that, why didn't he just stay there and not come back!"
Once again thinking to herself, her cerulean blue eyes quickly lightened up as an idea popped in her head. "That's it! I got it!" Quickly, she scurried upstairs, knocking down all the little obstacles (such as her slippers and her clothes) out of the way and slipped into her room where she sat down in front of her computer and started typing down her ideas.
"So, the woman is pregnant with the man's child…" she muttered and finished typing. She quickly finished and her eyes widened with excitement and joy. "Oh wow! It's getting even more exciting!!" she giggled and clasped her hands over her mouth as she started giggling uncontrollably.
Meanwhile, Suki walked out of the doctor's office with a glum look on her face. Immediately, a taller brunette guy with a small ponytail ran up to her.
"Hey, so what did the doctor say?" Sokka asked her worriedly. "What happened?"
"He said that I really am pregnant." Suki hesitantly replied. Exasperating, Sokka took a seat and started cussing to himself.
"We have a lot of debts; how are we supposed to have a child?" she asked.
"…" he sighed.
"H-Honey, what are we going to do?" she asked once more.
"We'll have to do something somehow." He answered.
On the table where the computer sat were a series of frames revealing photographs of the tan skinned girl's family and her friends.
Typing out her story, the tan skinned girl muttered the words she typed, "…they found understanding, love, and something they could not express in words. She put her head down slightly and smiled…and then she whispered to him, 'The…the…uh…--"
Ding-dong-ding-dong
"What the..!!" she yelled as the sound of the dorrbell interrupted her thoughts and tried to finish what she was typing. "The..the..--"
Ding-dong-ding-dong
"Ugh! Who the hell is it?!" she yelled angrily and ran for the door.
Ding-dong-ding-dong
"Hold on!" she yelled and slammed the door open, revealing Suki and Sokka.
"Congratulations on winning a prize!!!" the brown headed couple cheered as the girl held up a ticket.
"First Class Airline Ticket and a Deluxe Hotel Pass? The tan skinned girl suspiciously asked.
"Yeah, our bank is offering our superior clients a chance to win a trip overseas." Sokka explained. "And Katara…you won the prize!"
"Is this a lie?" Katara suspiciously asked.
"Didn't I say it's a contest held by the bank? You're so suspicious…" Sokka bluffed again.
"Hey, then do you want it? I'll make it cheap." Katara offered.
"You want me to go? What about work?"
"…"
"But Katara, you've never even been on a plane before have you?" Suki asked.
"Airplane? No…"
"Just ride it for free this time then!" Sokka encouraged.
"Then what am I going to do about the house?!" Katara asked back.
"The house? Well, it's not like anyone's going to steal it while you're gone." Suki said.
"Yeah! We're here anyway, so there's nothing to worry about. Right, Suki?" Sokka said.
"Hmm, there's still something fishy about the whole thing.." Katara replied.
"What do you mean fishy?" Suki hesitantly asked.
"Nothing is ever free in this world, you know." Katara stated.
"…"
"There isn't any membership or participation fee is there? It's 100 percent free right?" Katara asked.
"Yeah! That's right! You're so suspicious." Sokka yelled with enthusiasm.
"…Okay! Since it's free anyway, don't wanna waste a ticket! Let's go!" Katara cheered.
A few days later, Katara, Suki, and Sokka all rushed to Appa Airport with many bags of luggage.
"What's the rush?" Sokka asked running.
"It's a vacation! Hurry up and run!" Katara yelled.
"I told you to come out earlier." Suki said.
"Well, how would I have known that the traffic would've been that bad? Just shut up and run!" Katara yelled.
At another part of the airport sat Zuko Bei and his manager's assistant.
"Once you arrive at the hotel, you have an interview and we'll start shooting on the second day. When you arrive at the airport, the staff and the translator will be waiting there." The manager's assistant explained.
From outside the VIP lounge's window stood swarms and swarms of Zuko's fans all trying to take pictures of him. Ignoring those fans, Zuko just sat coolly on his seat.
"By the way, have you read the recent article about you and the singer Star?" the manager's assistant asked and gave him a copy of the newspaper. Interested, Zuko Bei sat up and took a look at the front page. "It's the second time this month. The manager wants you to be more cautious."
Not really caring, Zuko just simply tossed the newspaper aside. "How are the arrangements in China?"
Finally arriving at the port to China, Katara, Sokka, and Suki all stopped as Katara grabbed her passport from her bag.
"Hurry up." Sokka said.
"There'll be someone waiting for me at the airport when I get there right?" Katara asked.
"Yeah, now hurry up and go in." Sokka said.
"But you know, this feels weird, this is my first time leaving home. Whatever, I'll be going. Take care of my house, my friends." Katara smiled and left to get on the plane.
Still feeling a bit guilty about lying to her friend, Suki called out, "Katara! Wait!" and she ran to Katara and shoved a handful of cash into her friend's hands.
"What's this?"
"When you get there, exchange this, and eat some good food with it." Suki said.
"It's okay, didn't you say that everything will be provided there?"
"Still, you better take it, in case of an emergency."
"Haha, alright. See you guys soon!" Katara said and continued walking.
"Katara! Wait!" Suki yelled again and ran toward her in for a hug, as did Sokka.
"Katara…we love you!" they both yelled.
"Hey! Stop it, this is embarrassing. Haha, okay, I love you too." Katara said back and waved goodbye as she left for the plane.
Waving goodbye until she was out of sight, Sokka and Suki's face of excitement slowly turned into sorrow.
"Katara's…gonna be okay right?" Suki asked.
"You can drop her off at a desert and she'll still come back alive." Sokka told her. "It's only when she comes back that we're gonna have to start worrying."
"…"
"Let's hurry up and do what we have to do now that we got rid of her."
On the plane…
"Yes, I'll put this up for you." The stewardess said and took Katara's blue bag as she took a seat near the window.
"Oh my god! It's so spacious! So comfortable!" Katara squealed.
"Excuse me ma'am, would you like a newspaper?" the stewardess asked.
"Huh? Yeah, sure! Thank you." Katara grabbed the newspaper offered to her. "Oh, and uh, does the plane shake a lot?"
"Oh no, not at all." The stewardess smiled.
"Ah, yes." Katara sighed and buckled in her seatbelt and opened up the newspaper to the front page. "Oh my god, another scandal. I knew it. Who is it this time? Who--Star? Why'd you go out with her?" Katara scoffed.
Meanwhile, Zuko Bei walked down the hall of the airplane.
"Welcome sir. This way please." The stewardess directed him to a seat next to Katara, and he sat down.
Noticing that someone sat down next to her, Katara quickly stole a glance at whoever it was and pretty soon, her jaw was on her lap with her eyes almost popping out of her eye sockets. Katara gasped even louder when Zuko took off his sunglasses and found herself staring at him.
Realizing that it really was him, Katara blushed surprisingly and greeted him, "Hello! You're Zuko Bei right?"
All Zuko silently did was shoot her a tiny and awkward smile and turned his face slightly the other direction realizing it was gonna be another crazy fan.
"Are you going to China too? Why? Are you shooting a movie?" Katara suddenly asked.
Trying to ignore her with the best of his abilities, he turned his head the other direction and put his head down for a nap.
Realizing that he wanted to ignore her, Katara just made a bunch of funky faces at him. "Have a good nap."
Just as the plane was taking off, some of the lights started to go off as the plane's wings started to shake a little bit. Completely freaking out, Katara shut her eyes immediately and grabbed the things nearest to her. One of which being Zuko's wrist.
"Oh my god! The plane's shaking!! Mom!!" Katara freaked out as Zuko tried to pull his arm out of Katara's hard grasp. But no matter what he tried, she wouldn't let go. Until finally, he pried her fingers off and before they knew it, the plane was up in the sky soaring.
Meanwhile, trying to get rid of all the clothes in the way, Suki quickly grabbed all the little messes in Katara's house and threw it aside as Sokka was showing the house around to a guest.
"Yes, the lights are working perfectly." Sokka said. "The house is in good condition right?"
Sokka quickly counted up the checks he received for selling Katara's house.
"It's the right amount right?" the buyer asked and Sokka nodded.
"You said that you'll remove all the furniture right?"
"Of course, we'll handle that."
"Okay then, I'll be going now."
As soon as the buyer left, Suki started counting up the money again.
"Hey Suki, don't you think we've gone a bit too far with this now?" Sokka sadly asked.
"I-It's okay. Everything's gonna work out." Suki hesitated.
Back on the plane…
The meals were served to each passenger and Katara started munching on the food as if she had nothing to worry about. Zuko just stared at Katara eating and even gagged a little losing his appetite.
After finishing her gigantic meal, Zuko and Katara were both given forms to fill out. Having no clue on what to do with these forms, Katara carefully peeked over Zuko's shoulder and saw that Zuko too was staying at the same hotel as she was.
"You're staying at the Rubina Hotel too? So am I!" Katara exclaimed. Annoyed by Katara's company, Zuko made a remark.
"What are you looking at?" Zuko asked coldly.
"Nothing." Katara grinned. "You know, this is my first time on a plane. But you know, it's a lot more fun that I thought it would be."
Still ignoring her, or trying to, Zuko just turned his head away and filled out the rest of his form.
"Doesn't your ears heart from the high altitude? You know, if you just swallow your saliva, it stops hurting.." Katara said. "Just swallow your saliva like this." Katara demonstrated and swallowed her saliva, but before she knew it, Katara completely threw up all over Zuko's shirt sleeve.
"Oh my god! I'm so sorry…"
"What the..!!"
"I'm so sorr--" before she could say anymore, she ended up throwing up on him even more. Having enough of Katara's little annoyances, Zuko stood right up and ran straight toward the washroom. Once in there, he quickly peeled off his shirt, especially the sleeve, revealing another undershirt and gagged. Sniffing his right arm, he gagged even more and threw his shirt in the sink and washed his arm.
Back in his seat, he threw himself on the chair and glared at the now asleep Katara. Sniffing his shirt once more, he became completely disgusted and stuffed it in the pocket near the chair.
Finally, the plane began to come to a slow stop and it arrived in the FN Airport. Waking up from her long nap, Katara noticed everyone standing up to get ready to leave and quickly got all her things together. As she was, she noticed Zuko's shirt, the one she threw up on, on the pocket of the chair.
To be continued…
Okay, I know this is like almost same thing as the drama, but oh well, and I know the characters (especially Suki) are totally OOC but it doesn't work without them being that way. Anyway, as for Suki, I guess she changed after being with Sokka. Speaking of Sokka, many of you might think that he's stupid for selling his own house since he's Katara's brother. However, even though, he is still Katara's brother in this story, back when Katara was a little girl, she got amnesia when her parents died. She eventually got her memory back, but Sokka didn't tell her that he was her brother since they were actually more closer as friends. So basically, they're still brother/sister, Katara just doesn't know it.
Oh, and just so you know, just cuz I chose Sokka/Suki for this story, it doesn't mean I ship them, K? I just didn't wanna choose Toph because of her reputation or Ty Lee because I don't really think she fits for the role.
Also, this is a Zutara story, so I tried to keep all the main characters out of it so I can focus on just Zuko and Katara. However, the main characters might appear in some of the chapters.
Anyway so, I hope you enjoyed it so far! Please review!!
