Katara dialed Zuko number into her phone. It was late but she knew he stayed up late doing Firelord business . Almost instantly he picked up and she heard his deep raspy voice.

"Hello" he said

"Hey, it's me" she answered

"Who's me"

"Katara you idiot"

His voice was sleepy which made it all the more sexy. Wait... I can't be thinking Zuko's sexy ,get it out of your head Katara she scolded herself for thinking such thoughts

"You still there?" his voice took her from her thoughts

"Yea sorry I got distracted" she said back

" I was just thinking if you plan on getting to the Fire Nation by next week you should leave tomorrow you know considering that you have to stop at Kyoshi Island to get Suki and Ty Lee "

Katara had completely forgotten, no wonder Sokka had packed all day, well it's not like she had a lot of clothes she could throw anything in a bag tomorrow morning

"Yea that's what we're planning on doing "

"Can't wait to see you " "As long if your not bringing your ass of an boyfriend form last year " he said

Katara laughed ." Nope we broke up ,I am now single and ready to mingle "

"Well I broke up with Mai .I am now single too'

Katara smiled "Lets be single together "

He chuckled "That could work"

Katara loved the fact that Zuko was her best friend .He was usually hot-headed and moody to other people but when they were talking he was a very relaxed and even funny person .He was the one of the only ones she usually kept in touch with throughout the year the except of Toph ,Suki ,and Ty Lee

"I brought you a gift " He said

"Really !What is it?

"It's a surprise, I'm sleepy I'll talk to you tomorrow" he said and dropped before she could protest

On that note Katara smiled to herself and fell asleep


Katara looked over the deck of their ship they'd be in the Fire Nation in a matter of hours she would see everyone . The thought of seeing the friends she hadn't seen in a year made her wanna push this ship to the Fire Lee was cartwheeling around the ship for this trip she had abandoned her Kyoshi Warriors outfit for her usual pink .Sokka and Suki were somewhere making out and she was here looking at the sea. Katara sighed It felt good to be surrounded by her element

Ty Lee had done a full circle of cartwheels around the ship and now she was walking over to Katara. "Hey" she said in her cheerful voice

Katara turned around startled " Ty Lee you scared me! I thought you were still doing cart wheels" Katara said

"I got tired ,and bored " she said " What are you doing?"

"Nothing just looking at the water" Katara replied

" Oh... thinking about jumping off? " She asked innocently

" Gods no I would never kill myself!" Katara said horrified that Ty Lee could even think such a thing

Ty Lee laughed "No not in the kill yourself way . Just in a fun go for a swim way" "Ty Lee! It's like a 30 foot jump !" she exclaimed gosh Ty Lee could be such an airhead sometimes "

I can't believe it . I have never met a waterbender scared of water" Ty Lee said shaking her head

"I'm not scared I'm just being cautious " Katara said defensively

"Well I'm gonna do it' Ty Lee said and before Katara could stop her she did a perfect round off diving headfirst in the water for a second Katara thought she was dead because she didn't surface for about ten seconds but then her head pop up from underneath the water

" Katara the water's great come on" Ty Lee yelled.

"Fine but if I jump how are we gonna get back up"Katara yelled down at her

"We can climb up using the metal poles sticking out the ship"

"I can't believe I'm listening to you" Katara took a deep breath in and put both feet over the rail so now she was sitting on it then she let her but slide so she was dangling with only her hand holding her up. Ty Lee was encouraging her from below. Finally Katara closed her eyes and let her hands go. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" she screamed as she fell. After was felt like forever screaming and falling she finally felt herself hit the water

" See how hard was that " she heard Ty Lee's voice behind her. Katara giggled

They stayed in the water for who knows how long before they heard Sokka 's voice yelling at them from over the from the ship rail "WHERE HAVE YOU GUYS BEEN WE'VE BEEN LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR YOU,HURRY UP AND GET HERE BECAUSE WE ARRIVE IN THE FIRE NATION IN 5 MINUTES"

Katara looked behind her she could just about make out the dock of the Fire Nation .At the rate their ship was going they would be there in five minutes! She and Ty Lee hurriedly climbed back on the boat .Katara ran to her room to get her bag and then smiled to herself when she felt the ship stop .That could only mean one thing

They had reached their destination.


Zuko stood with Toph standing next to him as Katara and Sokka ship neared. I finally get to see Katara he thought. He was excited to see Sokka ,Suki and Ty Lee too but mostly Katara .He remember what she had said last year when they were in the Earth Kingdom right before she left to return to the South Pole "I probably won't get to see you untill next year but know I be waiting.When Zuko snapped back into the present he saw that the ship had docked .His heart couldn't be beating any faster, He couldn't undrstand why he was so worked up over this .He sees her every year and they talk on the phone alot ,But something about this summer felt different.

Toph elbowed him "Chill dude ,I'm sure Sugar queen is excited to see you too"

Zuko looked at her suprised. How did she know he was thinking about Katara? "How do you know about that?"

She smirked "I know everything


Katara had a hundred thought running through her head what do I do when I see Zuko ,what if he remembers what I said last year, was I crossing the line when I kissed him on his cheek, I made it seem like I was desperate to see him, Oh no he probably thinks - her thought were interrupted by Suki who had been calling her name for a while now "Katara are you alright" she ask worriedly "Yea I'm fine"she answered "Let's go"
