A/N: Okay, last chapter. This is an epilogue 5 years after Katara and Jet left Aang, Sokka, and Toph to live in the tree houses. This means Katara is 21 and Jet is 22. They did have a wedding, though it was more announced than actually gone through with (i.e. no white dress and no ceremony). Pay attention, with the school year ending, I can update my coming story quickly.
Katara was walking through the forest with a young girl named Iku (almost 5 years old who's name meant "Nourishing") and a toddler named Akira (a 2 year old boy who's name meant "Intelligent"). They had gone out to gather some fruit for dinner and had come back with fruit, nuts, and fish that they had caught with the help of Katara and Iku's waterbending. They were making their way up the tree houses, albeit slowly due to Akira's not being able to climb yet. Iku had the same blue eyes as Katara with paler skin and brown hair. Akira had Jet's brown eyes and Katara's dark skin and brown hair. Katara had also managed to befriend the wolves that Jet had shown her the day he proposed to her. They still resided in the forest, but were not any danger and even played with the children sometimes.
"Jet? We're back." Katara called out through the system of huts. Now that Azula had also been defeated and Zuko had befriended Aang and taken the throne as Fire Lord, things had quieted down. Longshot and Smellerbee have left to start lives elsewhere, giving Katara and Jet the use of the entire system of tree houses.
After the three had eaten, Katara walked Iku and Akira to their small hut, which was directly across from her and Jet's. She put Akira in his play-pen-type-thing and told Iku to remember that if she left the hut at night, she could fall, which always ensured that Katara didn't need to lock the door. She then left their hut, saying good night, and went to her hut. She had saved some food for Jet, and left it on the table to the side of their hut.
Katara almost screamed in shock when Jet suddenly grabbed her around the waist. She had not seen him crouching in the shadows. He nuzzled her neck, pulling her close to him as she laughed.
"Spirits, Jet, you scared the shit out of me!" Katara said breathlessly.
"I'm sorry, Katara. Let me make it up to you." Jet whispered seductively. Katara knew the hidden meaning behind this apology, but let herself be picked up in Jet's strong arms and laid down on the bed. She gazed up at him with a half smile on her face, watching him as he pulled off his shirt. Jet then crawled over the bed until he was directly over Katara.
"Jet, Iku and Akira are in their hut right across the way. What do you propose we say if they hear?" Katara asked. She knew that at this point she could not stop Jet, nor did she want to, but she also knew that Iku was a light sleeper and could be easily woken up.
"Don't worry. I've got it covered." Jet said before reaching down and undoing Katara's sash. As he did this, he leaned down and kissed her. Katara immediately opened her mouth to him, and Jet's tongue slipped inside. As his tongue mapped out her mouth, her's was doing the same. Soon they stopped this and Jet moved down, planting feather light kisses along her jaw and collar bone. All this time he was working on removing Katara's robe.
He stopped kissing her for a moment so that she could slip out of the robe and toss it to the side, before going down again to take off her underclothes. Once all of Katara's clothes were in a pile on the floor next to Jet's shirt, he began to kiss his way down her chest. Katara began to moan softly, trying unsuccessfully to hold it in, as Jet gently massaged her breasts and teased her. Soon, Katara could not take much more, and she pulled Jet back up to her. His eyes were dark with desire, as she was sure hers were too.
As Katara pulled Jet in for another kiss, she began to pull his pants off. When Jet realized that he needed to stand up to continue, he did so quickly, at the same time shedding his undergarments. As he climbed back on Katara, he could see that her face was flushed and her breathing deep. His hands roamed over her body, sending chills down her spine (in a good way). She reached up and ran her hands across his chest, but soon they began to move down. Katara was no longer that innocent young girl.
"K-Katara... please... s-stop..." Jet could barely talk because of what Katara was doing to him. As soon as she heard this, however, Katara brought her hands back up to tangle them in his hair, smiling at him innocently. Jet then positioned himself above her, asking permission silently before sliding in. Katara gasped; they had nt done this in so long that she was a little tight. Jet waited a moment before pulling out and thrusting in again. After a little while, he started gaining both speed and strength while her moans began to reach a crescendo. This only pushed Jet quicker towards the edge that he was already racing towards. As Katara was also nearing the edge, she began to move her hips in time with Jet's, causing him to go even farther into her. Soon, they both came, screaming each other's names in unison before collapsing on the bed panting. Katara smiled to herself as she remembered that first night here; Jet was doing the same. Then Katara remembered something else.
"Jet?"
"Yes, Katara?"
"What are we going to tell Iku, again?"
