Okay, so here's a "Walk Away" version of Zuko + Katara. The story is that Katara goes of into town hoping for a good place to relax in. She comes across a nice tea shop and decides to go there. However, to her surprise, it's Zuko & Irohs tea shop. She sees Zuko, but then he's also with a girl. All those memories come flooding back to her as she sits in a table quite farther from them, looking at the couple. Sad...

Okay, first of all, the words in BOLD is the song. The ITALIC words are memories/flashbacks. just to end the confusion:)

Disclaimer: I do not own Zuko, Katara, or anything that has to do with the show 'Avatar.' Neither do I own "Walk Away." That song is from Paula DeAnda ft. the Dey (and NO I don't own them either.)


I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me

(I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me.

(I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

"Hmm, the Jasmine Tea. Sounds good." Katara walked inside the place to find half packed with customers already. She took her seat waiting to be served.

Yeah, you're gonna remember me boo
I'm gonna remember you too.
I can't forget all the crazy -shh- we used to do.
You was doing too much, I wasn't doing enough
That's what your friends would say, you got a man anyway.
I can't explain them either,but I don't wanna leave ya.
Hell yeah, it's hard to walk away when I see you...
When I see you I remember when the day
You put your shoes on and moved on before I could say.

They stared at each other's eyes. Tears falling from hers, no motion shown on his... But deep down inside, it hurt both of them equally.

I saw you with your new girl, just yesterday

and I feel that I must confess.

Even though it kills me, to have to say

I'll admit that I was impressed.

She looked around until her eyes focused on a couple. Not just any couple, but Zuko! And another girl? Her jaw dropped at the sight.

"Zuko... wow. Just, wow."

The two sat by each other, chatting about something that she couldn't hear. Uncle Iroh summoned him into the kitchen. "Coming." he reponded. The girl gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before he returned to his job.

"Oh my gosh" she whispered to herself in disbelief. Sadness and jealousy crept up in her heart. ((As a Zutara shipper, writing about Zuko and another girl that's not Katara was really painful for me.))

Guess I'd call it just short of perfection.

Gotta commend you on your selection.

"Hello Miss Jin. I'm sorry, Lee would have to leave you for a while. Customers are waiting. But I assure you, he'll be back." Iroh assured to the girl.

Jin? So that's her name...

Katara studied her closely. "She's pretty I guess... wait, why did I say that!? Ugh, nevermind. Little miss goody-two-shoes." she thought, glaring at her, thought Jin didn't seem to notice.

Though I know I shouldn't be concered,

in the back of my mind I can't help but question...

She frowned as a million other things entered her mind. "They look so... -sigh- Is he happy with her? Does he like being with her more than he did with me? Does he even miss 'us', does he miss me?"

Does she rub your feet (when you've had a long day)

scratch your scalp (when you take off your braids)

Does she know that you, like to play PS2

till 6 in the mornin' like I do..

"So, how was your day?" he asked, giving her a light kiss on the cheek. She smiled.

"Good. You?"

He thought for a while. "Nothing much. Uncle yelled at me for spilling his tea. That man loves his tea too much, seriously." She gave a small laugh.

"Hey, I know!" he exclaimed.

"What?" she raised her eyebrow at him. He loosened his grip...

"Tag... you're it."

"Hey! You cheated."

"Oh well. Poor peasant." he smirked.

"Oh really? Well, I woudldv'e called you a prince, but... I can see that you clearly aren't." she teased.

They began to chase each other through and thorugh like little 5 year olds, faces filled with smiles and laughter. After a while, they've decided they hade enough, so they sat down together in eachother's arms, he kissed her, she kissed him, and everything else felt right.

"Our very own moment..." he'd whisper to her.

I can't explain this feeling, I think about it everyday

And even though we've moved on, it gets so hard to...

walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

walk away (forever you will live in my memory)

walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

walk away (I can't forget, how we used to be)

"Why am I thinking about this!? I have to stop. Stop, stop, stop! He's happy with her, and I've already let him go, and... ugh, I just, miss him." she thought. All those memories flashed in her mind, memories of them. Trying to force back the tears as hard as she could, she turned to look in another direction.

Guess I gotta live my life, from day-to-day

hoping maybe you'll come back.

I know I tell myself 'not-to-be-afraid'

to move on, but it seems I can't...

"Zuko?" Iroh crept up to a depressed looking Zuko. He wondered what was wrong with him, or atleast why he had that look on.

"Hmm?" he responded.

"Are you alright nephew? Ms. Jin is still waiting for you." Zuko let out a big sigh.

"It's nothing Uncle. I'll, just get back to work..." Zuko felt down on the inside, but he wasn't gonna pour his heart out to Iroh. Oh no, he would rather keep his feelings within himself. Yet, this was different. Jin... he felt, was not the right one for him. He sighed. Only one girl was, Katara. His mind told him to move on, but his heart would not let go... He soon daydreamed to times when they were together.

"Our very own moment..." he whispered.

Though my new man is giving me attention,

it ain't the same as your affection.

Though I know I should be content,

in the back of my mind I can't help but question...

Jet compared to Zuko? Jet pretended to her, Zuko showed who he really was. Jet ended up heartless and cruel. Zuko changed for the better. Jet mis-used her. Zuko treated her right.

Does he kiss me on the forhead, before we play?

Show up on my doorstep, with a bouquet?

Does he call me in the middle of the day, just to say...

'Baby I love you.' like you used to.

"Guess who?" Zuko whispered into Katara's ears. Though he covered her eyes with one hand, she could still noticed his voice.

"Zuko!" she exclaimed, turning around to face him. They had a nice smooch on the lips, making it deeper until they had to gasp for air. He brought up his other hand infront of them.

""Hope you like them." stated Zuko, holding a bunch of fresh red roses in them. Katara gasped in awe.

"Aw Zuko, they're beautiful. I love it." They kissed once again.

"Perfect for my princess." Katara giggled.

"From my prince." Zuko smiled at her.

"I love you." she whispered.

"I love you too." he replied.

I can't explain this feeling, I think about it everyday

and even though we've moved on, it gets so hard to

walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

walk away (forever you will live in my memory)

walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

walk away (I can't forget how we used to be)

"Katara... where are you?" he thought again.

I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me

The things we did, the way we shared our fantasies

"Zuko?"

"Hmm."

"Do you like kids?"

"Why!? Don't tell me..." Zuko's face grew pale. "You're... pregant?"

"No! We haven't even done anything!"

Regaining color in him, his face blushed with embarrasement. "Oh, uh, sorry."

"But, do you like kids?" she asked once again. He nodded.

"Only if you were their mommy..." Katara chuckled.

"And besides," he continued again, "Uncle's expecting grandkids in the future."

Just you and me, my friend, my love, my family

How did we lose the love that was even meant to be

Sometimes I kiss her, and wish that it was you I'm kissing'

Sometimes I miss him, and wish that it was you I'm missing'

Sometimes I hug the girl, wish that it was you it I was huggin'

And I realize how much I'm buggin' (I miss you)

"Jet's not Zuko..." Katara thought. She frowned at the realization knowing that no matter how hard she tried to find another guy, they will never be like Zuko. But still, she didn't want any other guys, she wanted him.

"Katara's not Jin." Zuko thought. He sighed to himself. Uncle Iroh, on the other hand, came bursting in, interrupting his thoughts once again. "Zuko, a customer is waiting on the far right, the table by the entrance. Please kindly take her order." He took a notepad and a pencil, walking up to whoever it was. "The clothes look familiar..." he thought, "Katara?" She turned around as they came face-to-face.

So hard to express this feelin'

cuz nobody compares to you

And you know she'll never love you

like I do...

"Zuko..." tears were faliing from her eyes, and yet he didn't know what was going on.

"Katara, why are you crying?"

"Zuko... Sokka, Aang... they found out. I- I can't see you anymore. We're... leaving." Those words hit him hard shattering his heart into a million peices.

"No, you can't leave, Katara... please don't." Yet all she did was shake her head. "I..." he continued, "I love you."

She shook her head. "I'm sorry Zuko. I love you too." She gave him on last kiss before turning around. As she began to walk, Zuko lightly grabbed hold of her wrist and whispered something one last time.

"I promise... that you'll still be my princess, now and forever." He then let go of her and watched her fade away from him.

I can't explain this feeling, I think about it everday

And even though we've moved on, it gets so hard to...

"Katara?" Zuko asked in shyness. Katara smiled.

"Hi."

"What are you doing here?" he wondered.

"Uh, nothing... I was just, uh, taking a break. Just, sitting down here. Well, um, I better go." She quickly got out of her seat and walked outside. Zuko followed in a rush.

"Wait!" he yelled after her. Yet she wouldn't look back.

Walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

Walk away (walk away)

Walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

Walk away...

He finally caught up with her and grabbed her wrist, forcing her to turn around. Once again, their eyes met into each other's. Her eyes glistened with sadness, his eyes with hurt.

"Katara, I - I missed you." he spoke. Yet she wouldn't say a word. Instead, she flung herself in his arms hugging him.

"I know. I missed you too." she replied. Tears formed in her eyes but were quickly brushed away. Their gaze returned to each other once again as she broke free from him.

"But Zuko," she continued, "I can't be with you right now..." Though it pained her to say it, she sighed, knowing it was true. She's helping the avatar and the whole world for crying out loud! Zuko looked at the ground, though it hurt, she was right. He knew what she had to do. Before she turned around to leave, he stopped her once more.

I can't explain this this feeling, I think about it everyday

And even though we've moved on, it get's so hard to

walk away (I'm gonna remeber you, you gonna remember me)

walk away (forever you will live in my memory)

"I'm keeping my promise..." he whispered. She looked surprised.

"Of what?"

"That you'll still be my princess... now and forever ." He gave her one last kiss and smiled. He let her arm go and each parted ways.

Walk away (I'm gonna remember you, you gonna remember me)

Walk away (I can't forget how we used to be)

"I'll come back to you my prince..." she whispered to herself, one last time.

Walk away (walk away) walk away (walk away) walk away (walk away) walk away...
