Chapter Two:
After talking between eachother for a while, Helena grew silent. She had gotten her clothes back and the rain had stopped. She walke out onto the deck of his ship again and walked to the edge, she staired up at the sky. The sky was sparkling with stars. She began to pray. Please my love..wait for me. I'll bring you what you wish for. Just, Just don't, don't date her. Please. She prayed. She was suppost to give the Avatar to her 'beloved boyfriend' for him to stay with her. She wanted him so despritly. She staired up at the sky in her own world before she saw someone stand next to her and stair with her. Prince Zuko.
"Hey." He greeted, stairing at the sky. She repeted his greeting. Still in her own little world. She began playing with the water in the ocean. Of course, without thinking. Once she was brought back into reality she quickly stopped. "why did you stop? That was neat."
"Im not suppost to." She told him, putting her hands at her side. "My dad told me that its bad."
"Isnt he a water bender too?" The prince asked her. She shook her head.
"No. My mother was a water-bender. My father was a fire-bender. My mom drowned at sea and ever sence, my dad has told me never to water bend. He has been teaching me to fire-bend, but it isnt working." She told him, finding her words came out like, word vomit. Prince Zuko didnt smile. She actually had it worse than he did.
"Im sorry to hear that. Want to have a friendly match? You can water bend if you want. If your hiding it, I wont tell." He said to her. This caused her to heave a smile.
"Nah. Mabye a diffrent day." She told him, bending the water. Now, she knew what she was doing. She made the water whip and other cool tricks.
"You say your father is a fire-bender? I may be able to tell him to let you use your water-" But he was cut off by her placing her hand on his mouth.
"No! Dont you dare! Dont tell anyone!" She forced him to promise. He agreed.
"I wont tell anyone. But you shouldnt hide your ability. I rather like you." He told her. She didnt hear the you. But he had. He blushed nad turned his head from her. He had said that aloud. If she was to have heard that he liked her, what would she have done? He turned his head back to her when he heard her crying. "Dont cry. I wont-"
"Its not about that." She snapped. Prince Zuko inched closer to her. After a while of allowing her tears to fall onto the metel bar she was leaning on, she turned to the prince and cried on him.After a few short seconds of her supporting herself while crying, the prince wrapped his arms around her and let her cry. He wasnt used to this kind of thing. It was about 2 AM so no one would interrupt. He was able to stand there with the girl he secretly liked. He didnt know how to feel that way. He had never been in love before. So he didnt know how to react to a girl in tears in his arms. He only did what he saw fit. He brushed her long red hair with his hand and told her that it was okay. He didnt know what was wrong, so he didnt know if what he was saying was true, but that was what he was told by his mother before she dissapeired. Truly, Helena had to cry. That was all she could think of doing. She considerd Prince Zuko as a friend to her, but she couldnt tell him why she was so sad.She was so blind, the man she loved was going to break up with her if she didnt obey what he said and give him the Avatar. She couldnt lose her boyfriend. She couldnt lose her man. She had no reason to bound herself to him, they never sinned (Intercourse) but she loved him so much that it hurt her heart to think of him leaving her.
If he was to leave her. Secretly, Zuko wanted to ask her out. He wanted her to be his girlfriend. His love on the other hand, was pure. He would still gladly call her his girlfriend even if she didnt give him the Avatar, He wouldnt ever even send her out. But he knew nothing on both her ever having a boyfriend and he didnt know how to ask her. It was hard for him to know what to do when she is in tears, let alone dating her. He could screw up and be alone again. He hated to see tears falling from her perfect blue eyes. He wanted to help her, but there was no possable way that he could. He didnt even know what was wrong. He just stayed with her while she cried softly. Soft so that no one would hear her and wake up. But, she was holding so much back. She just had to cry. Loud. She had to scream, she had to creat a giant wave. She had to throw a fit. But all she could do was lie her head on Zuko and cry. Softly. Helena began to hiccup as she cried.
"You dont have to hold back." Zuko told her. Softly. "You can cry as loud as you want. You can do whatever you please." It took her a few seconds to back off from him and lean on the railing. She let out a loud, peircing scream. Scaring the whole ship. She created a giant wave with her water-bending and thrashed it against whatever was in the area. Mostly she just made it and threw it back out to sea. Over and over, screaming. The whole crew came running to the deck where Helena was letting out her intence anger.
"TAKE THAT YOU BASTURD!" she screamed. Making balls of water and throwing them where ever she pleased. Once she finished her fight with herself. She knelt to the ground and just sat on her legs. That tired her out. Now..sleep..that would have been nice. But she couldnt sleep. She was having a night where she would never get to sleep. She would be tossing and turning alot and would be in tears by morning. She just wanted to go home and go back to her terrible boyfriend. But in a way, she was just like Zuko. She would do anything for the man she loved. She would suffer, she would fight and compramise. But she couldnt love him that way. She had to have someone who really loved her, Zuko. But there were two things wrong. 1) She didnt know Zuko loved her. 2) She had a theroy that she couldnt go on if her boyfriend didnt love her.
Not to mention, her ship was being dragged along by Zuko's ship and she couldnt go sleep in her own room. So she was room-less. She'll be damned if she was going to sleep with Zuko. To her, rain was falling again. She would have been happier if she had drown with her mother. Zuko had no idea why, but he didnt care why. He wanted to help her, he wanted to make her smile. I dont think he has ever seen her smile. oh god. I can't even keep track of my own fanfic. Thats sad. Now that her fit was over. The crew and Zuko's unkle walked back into the ship and pretended like nothing had happend. Zuko walked back to Helena and knelt down to her, he felt her grab his hand. Hard. Nearly cutting off the cerculation. Zuko blushed and didnt know what to do from here. He saw that she was getting tired.
"You can sleep in my bed. I can find somewhere else to sleep." He offerd. She just yawned.
"I couldnt-" Helena defended.
"I insist. I can sleep in a sleeping bag or something." Zuko insisted. Helena was silent for a bit, then she stood up and allowed him to show her the way into his room. Once she was there, she gave him a tight hug good-night and bid a farewell to him. He grinned and said goodnight to her. He walked off from her room when she shut the door. He smiled to himself. A guard saw him smiling on his way to another room. That was a change, Zuko never smiled.
