1 year later: Zuko's POV
I sit here in my mother's garden trying to think of what to do for Katara. It is our one year anniversary tonight and I decided to plan something special. My head is filled with ideas but none of them seem to be good enough for Katara. Wait, My uncle I'll go see if he has any ideas. I walk through the palace until I reach my uncle who is currently sitting in the living room drinking tea.
"Uncle?" I say as I walk in.
"Hello there nephew would you like some tea?" Uncle asks.
"No thank you uncle. I need your help." I say.
"Well, why don't you have a seat." He says.
"What is it that I can help you with nephew?" He asks as I sit.
"Katara and my 1 year anniversary is coming up and I kind of want to do something nice for her. But I don't know what to do. Do you have any suggestions?" I ask.
"Your one year anniversary you say. Well you and Miss. Katara spend an awful lot of time in your mother's garden. Why don't you set up a nice dinner in there?" He says smiling.
"That's a great idea." I say.
"Yes. I'm sure Miss. Katara will love it." Uncle says smiling and taking a sip of his tea.
"Thank you Uncle." I say.
"Your welcome nephew." He says as I walk out ready to start my plans for the big night.

Katara's POV
I walk into my room exhausted after my meeting with all the ambassadors and Lady Ursa. The ambassadors just wouldn't let up on some of their demands I mean Fire Lady Ursa has such a great plan but if these big-headed jerks continue bickering we will never get anywhere. I walk over to my bed and lay down only to hear a crunch as soon as I hit the bed. Baffled at what made the sound I stand up to see a note and a robe laid on my bed. I lift up the note and read over it.
Dearest Katara,
On this day four years ago you became my friend and my only companion. We played together trained together you helped me smile and laugh again. You helped me through hard times and I helped you through yours. You held me when I cried and giggled with me when I laughed. But today is also special because on the exact day three years later after we became friends we decided it best for us for me to court you. Katara, Your smile brightens my day and your laugh fills me with hope. I believe with so much that happened for us on this day it is only proper for us to call it our anniversary. I wanted to do something special for you so put on the robe I placed out for you and meet me in the place where it all started at 7.
Sincerely,
Zuko
My eyes are blurry and full of tears. I wipe them with my sleeve and look down on my bed to see the robe he has chosen. The robe is a sapphire blue with tiny red and blue jewels sewn on to it. The robe gets lighter in color as you go up until you reach the collar which is snow white. I run my hand over it ever so lightly. I look at my clock located at the far side of my room and realize it's already six. After seeing the time I begin to rush and get ready to bathe. After bathing I place my robe on and leave my hair down because I know Zuko likes that. I fasten my mother's necklace around my neck and I take a deep breath.

Zuko's POV
I stand here in my mother's garden in my best Fire Nation robe. I wait eagerly for Katara for my uncle helped me pick out her robe. My uncle and Mother are currently shopping at a new market and Sokka took Azula to a new restaurant meaning Katara and I are the only ones here. My mind is elsewhere until Katara walks in. The robe my uncle and I picked clings to her curves and fits her perfectly. The bottom of the robe just sweeps over the floor and her hair is down and wavy.
As she walks over to me I can't believe that she's mine. This all seems like a dream and I don't want to wake up.
"Happy anniversary." She whispers in my ear then pulls back.
I regain my composure and say the same to her. I hold out my arm for her to take and escort her to the table. The entire garden is lit by candles and sitting in the middle is a table full of food and two chairs. I look at her face for a reaction and her eyes are wide and her mouth his turned into a smile. I smirk at her expression as I pull out her chair and she takes the seat. When she is seated I walk to mine and the meal begins.
"This is beautiful." She says looking around.
"So are you." I say confidently.
I can see her blush and look down at her plate.
"Let the meal begin." I say.

Katara's POV
"That was delicious." I say commenting on the food.
"Yes it was." He agrees.
"Remember that picture I had of you when you had just come to live with us and you had to meet the nobles and when you tried to curtsy you tripped." He says.
"I was hoping you had burned that picture." I say.
"Why would I do something like that?" He asks.
"Maybe I just had glimmer of hope that you would destroy that picture." I sat laughing.
"When we started taking pictures I kept a photo album. Would you like to see it?" He asks.
"Sure." I say.
"It's up in my room let's go." Zuko says as he starts heading to the stairs.
When we reach his room he immediately heads to his desk and opens the drawer. He pulls out a large red book that has the words Photo Album in gold on the front. He walks over to me and holds it out for me to see. I open it curious as to what pictures he kept. The first page is full of pictures of Zuko and me training. As I continue to look through it all of the memories of when we were younger come back and I can't help but giggle. But when I reach half-ay through the album the rest of the pages are blank.
"What happened to the other pictures?" I ask.
"Their weren't any. I was hoping that I could we could work on the second part together." He says smirking.
"I'd love that." I say handing him back he photo album and he places it back in the desk.
When I look up at him our eyes catch. Blue lock onto gold as we just stand there staring into each others eyes until zuko breaks eye contact and leans forward and catches my lips in a light kiss. As soon as his lips hit mine my lips react and move against his softly. The kiss becomes more passionate as he asks for entrance to my mouth and I eagerly allow him to. Our tongues duel and that kiss that was once light is now full of passion and lust. When I can't breathe anymore Zuko pulls back allowing me to catch my breath. I can see him smirking as he leans forward again and continues the kiss like it never ended. I am so lost in his passionate kisses I do not even realize that my knees had hit the back of the bed and we were now laying on it. I can feel Zuko extract his lips from mine and he begins to move downward biting and nibbling on my neck as he goes. When he reaches my pulse point he sucks on it and I can't hold in my moan any longer. I need him now. My thoughts are clouded by his passion but my hands slip down to his sash working to get it undone. When he feels this his head comes up from my neck and he gives me a questioning glance. Not needing to hear him ask it I nod and roll him over.

Zuko's POV
As she rolled me over I can feel her working to get my sash off. I lay here thinking of what this amazing girl is doing to me. I can't think straight as I feel my robe being slipped off. Not wanting to be outdone I stand her up and untie her sash like a pro. I watch as the silk robe falls of her body pooling around her feet. She stands very still only the light of the fire in the fireplace illuminating the room. I can see a faint blush tingeing her cheeks. Knowing she might not make the first move I step forward slowly.
When I reach her I grab her hand and lead her back to the bed. I lay her down and give her a kiss I'm hoping will reassure her. Just as this thought passes my mind I can feel her relax underneath my body.

Katara's POV
His kisses are amazing and are all the reassurance I need. Moving my body to flip us over I succeed and break our kiss to nip on his neck. I kiss his neck leaving little nips every once in a while and make my way to his jaw as I place feather light kisses there. I make my way to his chest nipping and sucking my way down when he realizes how far down I am he flips us over and pins my arms above my head. His kisses begin at my neck and soon there is too much clothing in the way for his liking as he unwraps my breast wrap and takes off my underwear.

Zuko's POV
I look down and the view that I see is the most beautiful thing. Her breasts round and look oh so soft, her waist is skinny and her hips are perfect. Her legs are long and curvaceous. I look up to see her blushing madly as my eyes roam over her body. She's perfect. No longer able to hold myself back I lean down and begin to massage her breast in between my fingers. The sound she makes is a loud squeak but when I lean down and twirl my tongue around her nipple that squeak soon turns in to a moan. The moan continues as I give the same treatment to her other breast. When I finish with her breast my hand moves up her leg past her knee and to her thigh by accident my hand brushes her womanhood and she whimpers. The sound she made is addictive and I open her legs a little and insert a finger into her quickly her eyes widen at the surprise of something inside of her but she soon begins to moan as I slowly move it in and out she begs for more as I insert another finger and move faster until three of my fingers are pumping in and out of her. Her moans don't end and she continues with every move of my fingers. I wiggle my finger inside of her and she moans my name loudly. My name echoes throughout my room as I pull out my fingers and lick the juices off.

Katara's POV
I whimper at the feeling of no longer having something inside of me. My head is spinning and only one thought come to mind.
"I need you know." I whisper in his ear.
"This is going to hurt. I don't want to hurt you." He says as I smile at his concern.
"I'll be fine." I say.
"Okay." He responds.
I watch as he looks in between my legs to see if I'm ready but I can already feel the wetness and I know I'm ready. He gets up and takes off his boxers and my eyes widen at the size. I look at his face to see him smirking and blush at being caught. He walks forward and lies down on top of me and he looks me in the eyes and I nod.
He pushes in and begins to move forward and when he reaches my hymen he pulls back and presses forward and breaking my womanhood forever marking me as his. When he does this he kisses me swallowing my whimper and stops moving allowing me to adjust to his size. A single tear rolls down my cheek and he wipes it away with his thumb. When I am fully adjusted I begin moving my hips signaling that I'm ready. Taking this as that signal he begins moving and within minutes our hips are synchronized. Heat is spreading through my body. The fire in my stomach is burning out of control. Moan after moan escapes my lips. As he drives me to release I scream out his name and the inferno that was once burning has been extinguished. Only a few moments later Zuko comes and collapses on top of me breathing heavily.
He soon rolls off and pulls up the covers placing them over us. He wraps his arm around my waist and I can hear his breathing soon turn soft when he falls asleep. I look over at him and smile at him being my first.
"I love you." I whisper but I know he doesn't hear me.
My eyes are becoming heavy with sleep but before my eyes close I swear I see a haze of steam.
