Chapter 11

"Yes that's right, another girl. Fay Jayden, 6 pounds 7 ounces. Healthy as can be, you should come out soon and see her." Ozai said to Iroh on the phone.

"Well I have to stay here until Zuko and Katara get back, they are going to run the company while I'm out there with the new baby" he said

"Good deal."

"Well, I will see you when you come out here."

"Yes, see you then brother."

They hung up the phone and Ozai went to go check on some things for dinner. When Ozai cooked it was an adventure in eating. Some times it was good and other times it wasn't that great. It was whatever Ozai thought would taste good, majority of the time they had ordered pizza when he had gone to bed.

"What's for dinner dad?" Zuko asked

"Super special spaghetti surprise" he said starring a very large pot full of water and spaghetti.

"Sounds…..ahhh….great…" Zuko said and walked back to his room where Katara sat on the bed thinking.

"What's up?" he asked her

She was kind of out of it, "Katara?"

"Hmmm….what?" She said looking up at him

"What's going on? Are you okay?"

"Yeah just thinking about stuff that's all."

"stuff…what kind of stuff?"

"nothing…so what's for dinner…?"

"Dad's cooking…so it might be spaghetti…most likely pizza." He said with a laugh

"I'm not that hungry." Katara said holding her stomach and curling up away from Zuko.

"…okay seriously what's going on?"

Katara bit her lip and looked away from his eyes. "Katara?" he said he was in front of her crouching down beside the bed.

"…I…think…"

"…what...?"

"…I might be pregnant…" she said, she had prepared for the worst reaction ever, she even packed her bags just in case...what would Sokka say? " Zuko?"

"That's…some news…" he said softly, "Are you sure? Did you do your math correctly?"

"Yeah I'm sure I did. I mean, I have been taking my pill for about 4 months now…" she saw the look he was giving her, "It was my choice, hello I live and work in New York!" She told him almost yelling "it was just a bonus that I got to sleep with the hottest man at the office." She smiled

Zuko just blushed he knew he was attractive but he just didn't know that's how she described him.

"I'll be right back"

(Azula is still in the hospital)

Zuko walked down to Azula and Haru's room. In to their bathroom and opened the cabinet. On the top shelf were about 20 home pregnancy tests. Azula had told Haru that the twins were the last kids they were going to have. Something had happened between what she said and what happened. Zuko was pretty sure that this was their last child and that she wouldn't miss a couple. They needed to know now. Zuko put the two boxes in his pocket and walked back to his room, as casual as he could with out drawing attention to him self, Ozai could smell trouble about 2 and half miles away.

"Here" He said with a slightly scared voice.

Katara took the box.

"I'm sorry. If you want me to leave, I can understand." She said

"…I don't, I just want to know…It would be nice to have a child, specially with you, but I'm not sure now is the right time…in my life…"

"…some times you have to just go with what comes." She said looking him in the eyes then standing up to go to his bathroom. A couple seconds later she came out with the test and waited on the bed next to Zuko.

"So…you're not mad…?"

"…no not really…I knew what we were doing. I know the risks."

Katara shook her head in agreement.

"How long do we have to wait?" as soon as the words left his mouth the timer went off.

"We can know now." She said

Sokka and Suki spent the majority of the time together, since Katara had been gone. The only reason Suki had left the small apartment was to get clean clothes. They talked, laughed, cooked and had a great time.

"I feel like I have known you for a long time. But it's only been a couple days…four or five right?" Sokka said

"Yeah I know what you mean. It's a good feeling. Having someone you trust, close by." Suki said back

Sokka sat and shook his head looking out the window, "Do you want to get eloped?"

"What?" Suki said in shock

"Come on…I mean what's the worst that could happen?"

Suki had thought for a second. She was so excited when Jet purposed to her, but she could not determine if she was in love with Jet or the idea of getting married and having someone for ever. She did like Sokka, and he was cute he was on his way to getting a great culinary degree and a job. She had a good job and he could finally move out of his sister's apartment.

"Let's go buy a ring." She said

He smiled, "let's go tomorrow." He said

"Okay, sounds like a great deal." She said

Suki had left the apartment to get some thing to wear to there just thought up idea of marriage. Sokka was so happy; he couldn't remember a time when he was this happy. He cleaned the dishes picked up around the apartment and got some things together and went to bed. He wasn't really sure when Katara was going to be back from her business trip, he hoped that it wasn't tomorrow, she would call him right? He had hoped that California didn't change his sister.

The next morning Sokka put on his best clothes and went down with Suki and sold her ring from Jet. Then went down to the jewelry store and bought the ring. It was perfect. Sure it wasn't a fairly tale but that's not what they wanted. They wanted to be together and they had found a way.

By 5:30 that night, Sokka and Suki were man and wife. He hadn't called Katara which was probably a good idea at the time. He figured he would let her know when she got back from her trip which would be soon.
