Iroh's Bad Plan

By: Iroh's Tea Shoppe Girls

Announcement: One of us just got married (the one who didn't write this) and is on her honeymoon. It would be great if everyone who has enjoyed our fanfic comment with a little "Congratulations" or something like that. Thanks!

"I'm only doing this because of your uncle," she snapped in a cold tone.

Zuko rolled his eyes, and retorted, "Same here."

"Well, aren't you going to offer me tea?" the girl asked. "Or don't they teach manners in the Fire Nation."

The prince bit his tongue, he remember what Iroh told him as he made the tea. Marrying this girl would help bring peace to the world and secure his political future. The girl was the heiress to one of the richest Earth Kingdom families. She would grow up to hold more power than even a daughter of King Bumi.

"Here," Zuko said as he handed her a plain cup of tea. He sharply added, "And you're welcome."

Toph glanced in his direction, even though she couldn't really see him. "Thanks."

She took a sip of the tea, only to have her taste buds assaulted by the worst tea ever. "Geez! Haven't you ever heard of a strainer! This is the worst tea I've ever had! There's no way I could ever consider marrying you!"
