It will make me feel like i'm actually doing something right! Hope you enjoy my prompt ideas!

This takes place in between The Boiling Rock and The Southern Raiders episodes. Hope you like it!

Katara arose from her bed with a yawn. She hopped out and followed through with her daily routine.

After Katara finished going over her mental schedule, she went to the bathroom to get cleaned up. She then woke up Teo and The Duke and walked out to the dining area to make breakfast!

'Same old same old' Katara thought, bored 'You'd think traveling with the Avatar would be more exciting'

She sighed before continuing to make breakfast for her friends, and Zuko. She looked through the cupboards that were intricately designed with air bending symbols but found that they were all completely empty.

'Uh oh' Katara thought 'I guess I'll have to go buy somemore supplies'

Katara frowned "Hooray! Im going to the market!" She exclaimed, her voice dripping with sarcasm "What an interesting change in schedule"

She approached the gaang to tell them the news.

"You guys" she started "we are out of supplies, so I must go to the market to by more." She sighed. Here it comes. . .

"Breakfast will be late this morning"

"WHAT!" Who else but Sokka exclaimed, horrified. "But Katara, I'm starving"

Katara rolled her eyes "Well Sokka if your so hungry you can go lick the lint and dust bunnies from the insides of the kitchen cabinets."

"But-"

"Now i'm going to the market to buy some food. I'll try not to take to long" she stated. Katara turned on her heel and walked off in the direction of the market.

"WAIT!"

"What now Sokka!" She exclaimed turning around to glare at him.

"Do you have your waterskin? Are you sure you'll be ok going out alone?"

"I'll be fine Sokka. Yes, I have my waterskin and my bag." Katara said touched that Sokka cared and annoyed he didn't think she could handle herself.

"Ok Katara but remember we're in a war right now." He stated, worry easily heard in his voice. "Here" he said, tossing her his boomerang "Keep it just in case"

"Sure Sokka, ok" she said, catching the boomerang.

Then she set off.

At the market, she bought fruits, vegetables, meats, but she couldn't find any spices.

'Hmmm'

She looked around and saw a large department shop.

'I wonder if they sell spices in there'

And sure enough, they did.

She was waiting on line at the register when she felt an extremely warm presence behind her

'A firebender'

She popped the cap off of her waterskin and drew some liquid from it then turned around so fast she almost gave Zuko whiplash.

She saw that his arm was reached out to tap her and then she relaxed her posture. She was getting weird looks from people. She gave Zuko her dirtiest look.

"It's not safe to sneek up on me"

"I didn't even say anything!" He said defensively

"Whatever" she said giving him one last glare before turning around.

"What are you buying anyway." Curiosity heard in her angry voice.

"Candles, to help Aang meditate." he stated

"Oh" she said.

'Innocent enough answer' she thought

"You better not try to burn him while he has his eyes closed to meditate" she stated calmly with a hint of warning in her voice"Or i'll have to kill you"

"I know, i've been told" stated Zuko

Katara blushed

"Oh, ok, good, and..dont you forget it"

There was an awkward silence until Katara finally made it to the frot of the line after what felt like an eternity.

She placed her items on the counter as the cashier counted the amount of the spices and their costs.

That will be 3 silver pieces and 8 copper pieces.

Katara took 4 silver pieces before slowly redirecting her gaze over in Zuko's direction.

Zuko felt Katara's gaze on him and he looked over at her and raised his eyebrow in questioning.

"Do you have any change."

"Oh, uh sure, i think so"

He dug around in his pocket before taking out a bunch of copper pieces.

He handed them to her. But in that exchange of coins there was a catch of the eyes, brush of the hands, and the spark of a touch.

Katara drew back her hand in surprise still staring at him.

She felt her cheeks get hot, butterflies in her stomach, and a tingle in her hand.

"Uh, heh heh, did you ligtning bend me or something" she said blushing and laughing nervously.

"I didn't, I swear"

They stared at eacother for a while.

"What?" Zuko asked pretending not to know what she acting so weird for.

"N-nothing, um th-thanks for the...the...change"

She just realized how amazingly golden his eyes were. Her eyes widened. She quickly whipped around, paid the cashier, and ran out the shop feeling Zuko's gaze burn into her back the whole time.
She ran for what felt like about a mile before stopping and glancing back in the direction she had come.

'Well that was strange'

She caught her breath and then started to walk back to the temple.

'What was that? I felt a spark when our hands touched and I got butterflies and I blushed! That is NOT the way to act around an enemy'

'That was a change in character' she told her self confused. Yes, it was definitely a change, a big change, a confusing change.

And she stayed cofused. When they hugged after they found Yon Rha, when they saw the cave scene at the play, when she retreated from Aang's kiss at the Ember Island play, when he saved her from the fallig rocks, when she saved him from falling, when he jumped in front of the lightning for her, when she felt sad when she found out him and Mai were back together after the war and didn't know why, and even when she kissed Aang in Ba Sing Se after the war. All those time, and many more, she was confused.

That change haunted her for a long time. It was one of the worst changes she had ever experienced in her life. And at the same time,

one of the best.

Thats all for 'changes'! Hope you enjoyed it! It is 1:01 in the morning and I am waking up early tomorrow. That means, I am just about ready to go to bed. I dont really like this one as much as the last but, meh, it's pretty original right. I like the change like money and change like situation thing though so that also gained some points with me. I still have to write Pain though so go click on 'next' and here you go!
