DISCLAIMER: don't own AVATAR.

Otay! In 2day's chapter, Kellie begins 2 wonder about unfamiliar feelings. Feelings she hasn't had for years. And they make her wonder. Wonder if what she's always saying about her and Zuko not together are really true. Or if she's just lying to herself.

And 2day, I'm also going 2 make a feeble attempt in a deleted scene

.

Chapter 7: Mixed Emotions

Based on the song, Mixed Emotions, by: The Rolling Stones

Kellie hauled herself onto the top bunk of her bunk bed. That day of rock climbing had nearly gotten Zuko kicked out of the house. And left at Feathers. If Kellie hadn't stepped in, and said that Zuko was teaching her magic tricks, Zuko would be freezing his butt off in one of the shadows of one the giant basalt pillars back at Feathers. How he infuriated her.

Why did she even let him stay? Why didn't she side with her dad? And WHY did she keep feeling a flutter in her chest every time she saw Zuko without his shirt? She didn't recognize this feeling, and she didn't like it.

Ever since Kellie had gotten home from being trapped in the Avatar world, she had cut off the kinder emotions, trying to forget them. And she had. She hadn't gone to one of the school dances at the Middle School, and she certainly didn't intend on going to Homecoming, since she would be going into High School this year. She hated her emotions, and didn't want to feel them. So she tried to be as solid as stone, and as cold as ice.

Kellie pointed the remote to her stereo down, pressed power, and 2. She heard the familiar sounds of the Rolling Stones, and smiled.

For the past two years, I've been as solid as stone, and as cold as ice.

But something didn't feel right, anymore. She didn't feel so solid, she didn't feel so cold. Kellie had been losing herself ever since Zuko showed up.

What's he doing to me? The Rolling Stones cd went to song number 5, Mixed Emotions.

You're not the only one,

With mixed emotions

You're not the only ship

Adrift on this ocean

Kellie gritted her teeth. She somehow felt connected to the words.

Mixed emotions? Me? Impossible. I don't have emotions. I'm as solid as stone! I'm as cold as ice! I don't have mixed emotions! Not for Zuko, not for anyone!

The song continued.

You're not the only one

That's feeling lonesome

You're not the only one

With mixed emotions

But, quite frankly, the solid stones were crumbling, and the ice was melting.

Who am I anymore?

Zuko sat on his bed, and buried his face in his hands. He felt so horrible. He had nearly gotten kicked out of the house, and Kellie was infuriated with him. How could he ever live up to the promise he made to Cheyenne and Celia?

"So promise us, you'll be her boyfriend, and make her soften up."

"I'm sorry, I failed." Zuko whispered, then got up, and walked past Kellie's bedroom door. He heard music playing.

You're not the only one

That's feeling lonesome

You're not the only one

With mixed emotions

Just then, Zuko realized just how much that song represented Kellie.

I'm not going to give up that easily.

How do you guys like it? Anyways, here's my attempt at a deleted scene:

Rock Climbing With Paul

Kellie and AJ left the group as they always did and went to climb among the rocks, just talking.

AJ had gotten a lot taller since 8th grade. He now was up to her chin, last year, he had been up to her neck.

"Zuko's a freak." AJ said. Kellie shrugged.

"And a crybaby." Kellie started to giggle. AJ turned around, and started to lean in. Kellie leaned forward too. Soon, there were mere inches from each other's faces, when they heard Jason's voice.

"OOO! Kellie! I'm gonna tell Zuko! He's going to be so mad!" Kellie's eyes got wide as she chased after Jason.

"JASON! YOU GET BACK HERE!"

he. I don't like that much. It's kinda creepy, in my opinion. And if AJ or one of them found out, I'd b so dead. Cuz we hate each other in real life. And I'm grateful for that.

And o-dragon, let me explain. Feathers is in a semi-desert. A dry area full of dry shrubs. And there's no water for miles. So how would you feel, if you were dragged down to an area full of shrubs, and started to duel with a firebender?

Peace, man. (go hippies! Lol)
