Chapter ten
Katara's POV
Hawaii. We were going to Hawaii! It was just too much to comprehend. As excited as I was, I was a bit nervous. Who wouldn't be? I was going to be spending a whole week alone with Aang…what if I screwed something up? I shook it off as we were packing. Blue dress, purple tie-dye bikini, jeans, cover ups, shirts, etc; they all went into my suitcases. Aang was packing as well as we were side by side.
He came behind me and wrapped his arms around me. Behind me, he pulled me close. I put my arms on top of his and smile. I turn my head so we're facing each other, just inches apart. I give him a quick kiss. "I have to finish packing," I said afterwards. He sighed, but smiled. I ruffled his shaggy black hair and got back to packing.
After a few hours more of packing, we were at the airport. A while later we got on our plane. We were right across from a woman and a man with a child. I smiled at the child and squeezed Aang's hand. I smiled up at Aang. "That will be us one day," he said, giving my hand a squeeze back. I just nodded. Someday soon. I hoped, at least. I put a hand on my stomach. Someday….
I fell asleep and got awakened by the pilot coming over the speaker. "We will be descending in Hawaii in a few moments. Please, stay buckled until the plane comes to a complete stop. We are doing this for your safety. Have a great time in Hawaii! Thank you," He said. I also woke up with that baby crying.
"I'm sorry, did she wake you?" The woman asked, rocking the baby girl.
I rubbed my eyes and smiled. "Of course not," I smiled. "The pilot did." We both laughed. "She's so cute. What's her name?" I asked her, smiling at the baby looking at me.
"Lise," she said. "Lise Maria." (That's pronounced 'Leeza Marie').
"What a beautiful name," I said. "Lise," I smiled. The lady nodded and looked out her window. I looked back at Aang who was smiling at me. "What?" I asked, grabbing his hand.
"Lise. That's a pretty name. Just like Katara," he looked me in the eyes. "Seriously," I blushed and shoved him. "Ow," he faked-mocked. I rolled my eyes and turned my focus out our window. We were landing. I hated this part, for some odd reason. I squeezed Aang's hand and gritted my teeth.
He chuckled. Soon enough, the 'worst' part was over. We were safely in a Hawaiian airport. We rented a car for the two weeks and drove to the hotel we would be staying at; our temporary home. We walked up to the lady at the desk. According to her name tag, she was Amy. "Hello welcome to Twin Palm Trees resort. I'm guessing you're room is going to be a room with one bed," she smiled, looking at my ring.
I laughed. "Yes, that would be it. Our name is under Sokka. Sokka is my brother. He was the one who recommended this place after his and Suki's honeymoon."
"Sokka as in Sokka from Seattle? Oh, he was too funny. How's he doing?" She asked, giggling, her brown curls bouncing up and down.
"You know him?" Aang asked.
"Yes, I was a maid then. He had the messiest room!" she said. Aang and I both laughed and nodded. She gave us the room key, room 308, floor three. The top floor. We thanked her and walked to the elevator, our suitcases trailing behind us.
When we got to our room, we were surprised. It was far better than we expected! It was a suite! Oh, you just have to love Sokka. It led right into a small, cozy looking room. This room had snowy white walls, a black leather couch, a glass table, and a white carpet. On the wall was a flat screen TV. In the center of the table was a vase full of white roses. There were pictures of starfish and seashells in the room. A small microwave and mini fridge were in the room as well.
The bedroom was spectacular! It was an earthy green room. The walls were earth green, and the bed was a lighter shade. The pillows were darker, whereas the comforter was lighter. There were two big pillows next to each other, and then a round pillow in front of that. In front of the round pillow was a small, cylinder shaped pillow. The dresser was on the west most side of the room. It was made of wood, and so were the side tables by both sides of the bed. The wall in front of the bed had a flat screen just like the one in the smaller room. There were pictures of shells placed around; not so it took up all the space, but it made it look nice. The east most wall wasn't really a wall; just a glass sliding door. It led to a balcony where the ocean was a perfect view.
The bathroom was small and delicate. It was a beige color, with a counter with a sink in it. Above that was the mirror. The bath was a Jacuzzi bath. The place was so small and cozy…inviting. It was amazing! I squealed as I put down my suitcase. I ran over to the neat and orderly bed and started jumping on it. I didn't notice that Aang was staring at her as I was singing and jumping. I was singing my favorite Avril Lavigne song. "But honestly, I just need to be a little crazy!" That's when I noticed Aang.
How I noticed him? He was singing with me. "All my life I've been good, but now, I'm thinking 'what the hell!'" We both began to laugh and just enjoy being with each other. Yes we were grown up. Yes we were married. Did we act like it? Not really, we both acted like those love struck teenagers we were a few years back. That was fine with us; in fact, we preferred it. They thought being young was enjoyable, and we were going to treasure that for as long as possible.
They both sat down on the bed. "What should we do now?" Aang asked.
I smiled. "I don't know," I inched closer. "Maybe, oh, I don't know," I smirked at him. He chuckled. "A beach party! Duh," I smiled, teasing him. I ran over to our suitcases and took out my bikini. I put it on, and then I saw Aang start blushing.
"I always liked that bikini," he said. I smiled and giggled. Just as he came closer, I chucked his trunks at him.
"Get dressed," I said. I grabbed our towels and sat down on the couch, waiting. After a minute or two, we were walking down to the beach across the street from us. It was breathtaking. The water was so clear, the sand so beautiful, the skies so blue! We put down our towels and sat down on them. Well, I lay down. I was getting my long awaited sun time.
Aang sat watching me, or I think so, anyway. It was so relaxing. There would always be the peaceful sound of the waves crashing against the shore, and sometimes, there was the enjoyable sound of kids playing. After about twenty minutes of just relaxing, I got up and walked towards the water. I was ankle deep when I heard a voice behind me.
"Hey! Watch it! She'll see us!" It sounded like a teenage boy.
"She's married! Look, she's wearing a ring!" Another teenage boy voice said.
I turned around and faced the two. The taller one spoke up. He smoothed his blonde hair. "Hey, sweetness, what's up? The name's Austin," he proceeded to walk to me.
"Austin! I said she's married! Doesn't that mean anything to you?" The shorter one shrieked, walking towards his friend.
"No, Max, it doesn't." I think that's what he whispered to his friend, Max, anyway.
"Boys, don't you have single girls to hit on?" I heard a voice beside me say. I turned a bit to see Aang. "Nice try though, Austin. Now, run along," I smiled and then laughed.
"They-they…" I began to laugh uncontrollably. "They ran away from you…they're sc-scared!" Aang laughed a bit with me.
"They should be," he whispered in my ear. I smiled and kissed him.
"Yes they should," I agreed, kissing him again. "Now, let's go swim!" I grabbed his hand and pulled him out deeper into the water. We were laughing all the way while we were running until we were chest deep. Stopping laughing, I looked up at him. "You're amazing," I said.
"So are you," he whispered in my ear. I smiled, as I always do when Aang's around, and then I gripped his hand tighter. I slowly began to bend my knees so I was under the water, pulling Aang with me. We splashed around for a while and there was lots of laughing. After a while, though, we decided to go back to the room.
I got into a simple V-neck blue, knee length, dress and some zebra flip flops. I dried my hair and put on my necklace that was my Mother's; a sapphire with a gold chain. It was expensive, but that was something my Father gave her. Someday, I could pass it down to my kid. Someday soon. The dress was flowy, and was perfect for the weather in Hawaii. When Aang saw me, his eyes widened. "What are you all dressy for?" he asked.
I told him that I wanted to go out to eat. "It would be nice," I said. "I just have to get you in some better clothes! How about your jeans and that ridiculous Hawaii tee shirt you bought as we got here?" I laughed.
He shrugged. "Only if I get to pay," he smiled.
"Of course, my good sir," I replied in my best British accent. We both laughed. After a few minutes, Aang was wearing something better. He was wearing his jeans and a not-so dressy dress shirt with a black tie. I smiled as we walked down to the lobby. We got in our (rental) car and drove a bit away. We decided to stop at an Olive Garden. After eating bread sticks, pasta, soups, and more (we were full!), we drove back to the hotel.
I smiled as we got back. As he walked towards the hotel lobby, I grabbed his hand and lead him near the beach. We ran up on the pier and paid to get on. We ran down the whole pier, getting smiles and laughs from older and younger couples. We stopped near the end of the pier. Panting, we sat down on a bench. Watching the fishermen bring in fish and baby sharks, I was very interested. I'd never fished before. That was Sokka's thing. We got ice cream on the pier after being there for about an hour and a half, the moon high up in the sky. Stars lined the dark blue/blackish sky and the waves were calming. People had begun leaving the pier. Needless to say, we were the last to leave. Hand in hand, we walked back to the hotel room. Needless to say, neither of us really slept that night.
FOUR DAYS LATER…TWO DAYS BEFORE DEPARTURE
"Um Aang," I said. I didn't want to do this. I wanted to tell him! It had been more than two weeks.
"Yeah?" He asked, sitting down.
"I don't know how to say this…but," I paused. How would I say this? However it came out, I'd just go with it. "I can't do this." I said. 'Wow, now he probably hates you!' I thought.
He was silent. He gave me a confused look. "Aang…" I said. I sighed. "I'm pregnant."
After that, I couldn't tell if he was excited or what, until he ran over and hugged me. I smiled and hugged him back. "How long did you know?" he asked.
"About a week," I smiled. He smiled too. "Before we came," he frowned.
"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked.
I shrugged. "It wasn't the right time. Now was,"
