Chapter 6: Good Night, Sleep Tight, Don't Let The Dead Bite
Meet me at the Starbucks on 5th street at 10. Please be there.
- Zuko
Zuko walked to a Starbucks near his Uncle's house. He was determined to talk to Katara today. She said she wouldn't run away, but could he really trust her?
Zuko sighed and turned a corner. He looked up at the street sign and rubbed the back of his head. He hated these fucking street signs. He took out his phone and looked at what time it was.
10:05
"Fuck all kinds of duck," He mumbled as he put his phone away and started to run down the street.
He finally got to Starbucks at 10:23. Katara was walking out to her car when he got there.
"Ka-Katara!" Zuko panted, running over to her.
Katara turned her head right as Zuko ran into her. Zuko fell on top of Katara, her hot chocolate spilling on both their faces.
Katara blinked a few times before blushing and laughing, "Zuko!"
Zuko licked the chocolate off his lips and smiled at her, "Hey." Zuko got off of her and helped her up.
"I'm all sticky!" Katara laughed, shaking her head to get the wetness of the chocolate off.
"It didn't burn you did it?" Zuko said, looking her over.
Katara laughed, "No. Did it burn you?"
Zuko shook his head.
"Good. Look, my brother called and said that he couldn't get the microwave to work. Would you mind coming home with me? I need to get cleaned up anyways." Katara wiped the hot chocolate off her arms.
Zuko shrugged, "I don't mind."
Katara smiled and walked to her car, Zuko following behind her, "Get in."
The ride was filled with horrible singing and outrageous laughing. The ride was about 30 minutes, and once home, Katara slammed the door open and started to yell at Sokka about 'reading the fucking manual.'
"I tried! All it says is press the start button after typing what time you choose." Sokka defended himself as he glared at the microwave.
Katara walked to the microwave as Zuko closed the door. He looked around at the big mansion, his mouth opened a little.
"What time do you need?" Katara said, leaning on the counter and pressing a button to turn the microwave on.
"Two minutes, fifteen seconds." Sokka said, watching what she does.
Katara pressed a few buttons than pressed start, while explaining it to Sokka.
"I still don't understand this thing." Sokka said.
Katara sighed as Zuko walked into the kitchen.
Sokka looked at him than pointed at him, "Who's this?"
Katara smiled, "Sokka, this is Zuko." Katara walked to Zuko and held his hand.
Sokka smirked and put a hand under his chin, "This is the boy you've been crushing on?"
"Sokka!" Katara blushed brightly. Zuko looked at her, smirking.
Katara sighed, "I'm going to take a shower. Sokka, let Zuko take a shower in your bathroom and give him one of your shirts."
"Alright. Go prissy yourself up for your boyfriend." Sokka said as Katara ran upstairs to her room.
Katara picked out a Aiden band-t shirt and jeans with black and white panties and bra. She turned the shower on and waited till the water was warm before undressing and hopped in. Katara quickly took a shower and washed her hair. She got out, dried herself off, changed, brushed her hair (she was going to let it air dry), and ran downstairs.
Zuko and Sokka were playing Assassin's Creed III on their Xbox 360.
The house phone went off and Katara walked to the phone. She looked at the caller ID and frowned.
"Hello?"
