That's right I'm updating early. Because, I took so long to update on my other stories... Well, so please enjoy. Thank you for all the people that reviewed. :)

Katara POV:

I didn't know what to do, he was crying his eyes out, and it kind of reminded me of what I was like, when my mother had been killed. I looked down; he was holding the letter in his hand, so hard that the paper was crumbling. Gently took it from his hand while rubbing his back trying to calm him down. He looked up and me, tears were still streaming down his face. I wiped some away with my thumb; my father did the same thing to me, when mom had died. He smiled at me, his sweet loving smile. He was so different from everyone else. Aang... I knew he loved me, but I... I loved someone else. Lee had been nothing but kind to me. He had saved me from a damned pirate, who had tried to kill me, twice. Yeah, I forgot to mention that. He had such handsome eyes; his lips weren't too bad either. I stared to blush; I think he noticed because he stared to smile. A smirk even... I had to find a way out of this even though it was hard, and I so didn't want to, but I had to. I couldn't love a Fire bender. No matter how kind they had been to me. N matter how I thought they were different... no, I shook my head.

"What's wrong?" He looked away.

"Just... read the letter." That all he said, so I did.

Dear Lieutenant Lee Carter. (A/N: I made the surname up)

I am so sorry to inform you of the terrible news of your sister's death, but, she failed to meet the approve measures to support her Nation and the Fire Lord himself. Because of this she was killed by General Zhao, for her betrayal to her own Nation. We are sorry this could of not of reach you sooner, so you could have said goodbye. We are sorry for your loss. And we hope, in time you will be able to understand why we the Fire nation had to take these actions.

Sincerely,

The Great General of the Fire Nation.

I'm so sorry...

Your father,

High General James Carter..

I covered my month in shock. The Fire Lord had his sister killed for what she believed in, for what she thought was right. Just because she spoke out against one terrible monster...

"Lee, I' so sorry." I sighed.

"I know" He looked away again.

"Your father is the Great General?" I asked.

"Yeah and the shocking thing is... he still loves me." This caused his to smile a little.

"Who_?"

"Let's just say: he's more powerful than Zhao, but not as powerful as the Fire Lord. He could get my sister and I out of anything when we were young. But when mom died... he died too... inside."

"Your mother is dead?" I didn't know... "I know it not my place to ask, but..."

"No... Please, not now." I nodded. I understood.

"I know, I understand, I'm sorry for your loss, Lee."

"Thank you, Katara. Not many people feel sorry for a Fire bender; they must have forgotten that we're still human... just like everyone else."

I laughed a little and just about realized how right he was... "You're welcome and if you ever want to talk..." He stopped me there.

"Thank you..." I just smiled and nodded.

I was looking at him now... he was smiling. He felt better, I could tell. His smile... his eyes. I was getting closer to him too. I could tell... I really...

"Katara!" The door open, and we both backed away from each other... blushing.

... Damn you Sokka!
