Zuko was the fire lord even though he lived with us. He was what we called a traveling fire lord. He did all his work (military decisions, executions, alliances and ECT...) by messenger hawk. Once every 2 months he would go to the fire nation and attended a 2-hour meeting that covered everything that had been going on those last 2 months. We all would also spend the night at the palace, which was pretty cool.
"So, what do you think Toph and Aang are doing?" Zuko asked me as we neared the camp.
"I don't know," I answered, "probably practicing earth bending or something."
I was way off; when we entered our campsite I saw them. Toph and Aang were sitting on a rock in front of the fire kissing. My mouth dropped open. Suddenly Toph noticed me (with her feet) and quickly backed away from Aang who seemed to be puzzled at first, but quickly realized I was standing behind him.
"Ah, I can explain …" Aang began but I cut him off.
"Well I was goanna break up with you anyway, but I guess you just did it your self"
"Sorry," he said in a slow, but calm voice.
"It's okay," I said more relived then angry. His eyes slowly drifted lower and lower, but he stopped and stared at my hand. That's when I realized Zuko was still holding it.
"So, what you guys are a thing now," he asked in a bit of a shock.
"Yeah, kinda," Zuko said in almost a whisper. That's when Sokka decided to show up.
"Hey, did I hear that correctly," he asked staring at me and Zuko, "You guys are a thing now"
"Yeah, what's the problem," Zuko sounded annoyed and even angry.
"Hey it's cool, it's cool," Sokka lifted his arms defensively, "I just thought you and Mai were a thing."
"Oh I found out she was cheating on me," Zuko said quietly.
"Sorry to hear that man," Sokka sounded very concerned but I doubted he was he was probably just happy that Suki wasn't cheating on him (or as far as he knew).
Sokka, Aang and Toph all walked to their tents and left Zuko and me alone. Tomorrow was going to be a long day and we needed plenty of sleep. I pulled Zuko toward my tent and he immediately got the right idea. The air in my tent was probably around 10 degrees warmer then the temperature outside which made it much more conferrable. We both sat on my bed mat and started to make out. Then Zuko turned off the candle and at that second I understood we both had the same idea of how to spend the night.

I could feel him take off his vest and then I helped him take off his shirt. I was sitting on my knees and he put his arm my hips. He gently wrapped his fingers around my dress and pulled it up over my head and out of the way. We quickly took off the rest of our clothes and continued making out in a let me just say a different type of fashion. It was the most fun I have ever had in my life and I loved it. I put my head on his chest and I could hear his heart beating. I felt hot and sweaty. The dark wrapped around us like a warm, layered blanket. It was a blanket I didn't need because of the warmth in the tent. His lips were soft and moist unlike mine. These were exhilarating moments for me that I knew I would remember.
