Just a really short one-shot about Zuko getting a phone call in the middle of the night while his girlfriend's asleep. Possibility of it becoming multi-chapter, but I'm happy as-is so I'll only do that if there's interest.
Oh, and exactly who the girls are will be revealed at the end.
His phone was ringing. But who could be calling him at this hour? He checks the caller i.d. It's her. He answers quickly.
"Honey why are you calling me so late? It's kinda hard to talk right now."
Crying. He hears crying from the other line. "Honey why are you crying, is everything okay?"
"Zuko, why are you whispering?"
"I gotta whisper cause I can't be too loud."
"Why?"
"Well, my girl's in the next room, sometimes I wish she was you."
"I guess we never really moved on," she replies with a sad laugh.
"It's really good to hear your voice saying my name, it sounds so sweet coming from the lips of an angel. Hearing those words—it makes me weak. And I never wanna say goodbye."
"Then don't. I mean, I can find—"
He interrupts her, "But girl you make it hard to be faithful with the lips of an angel."
"Zuko…"she trails off.
"It's funny that you're calling me tonight."
"Were you dreaming about me again?
"Yes I've dreamt of you too," He hears a man's voice in the background. "Does he know you're talking to me?"
"I don't know."
"Will it start a fight?"
"Probably. What about with you? Does she…know?"
"No I don't think she has a clue."
"Zuko, you're still whispering."
"Well my girl's in the next room."
"Sometimes I wish he was you."
"I guess we never really moved on," he says, repeating her statement.
"Zuko," she says with a slight giggle. He's glad she's stopped crying, but he can't help wondering what the reason for it could be.
"It's really good to hear your voice saying my name. It sounds so sweet coming from the lips of an angel."
"Hearing those words, it makes me weak, and I never wanna say goodbye."
"Girl you make it hard to be faithful with the lips of an angel."
"Zuko…"
"It's really good to hear your voice saying my name, it sounds so sweet coming from the lips of an angel."
"Zuko, I think I have to go now."
" Hearing those words it makes me weak."
"I never wanna say goodbye."
"Girl you make it hard to be faithful with the lips of an angel, and I never wanna say goodbye."
"You make it hard to be faithful with the lips of an angel."
"Katara, do you still have to go?"
"Yea. Bye, Zuko. I'll see you soon?"
"Definitely."
She hangs up the phone and heads to the bedroom. Aang has the door closed but she hears him talking, so she cracks it so she can hear him properly.
"Honey why are you calling me so late?" Aang says into the phone.
