A/N: I'm free all week to write! YAY! So happy! Nothing can get in my way of writing now! Nothing! Muhahahahaha….I'm okay! I REALLY AM! I just had about 5 cokes and about 6 bowls of ice scream! I'm really hyper right now! Hope your trip went well elf of rohan! San Diego rocks, but I prefer Long boat key though. Remember on the season premiere of Avatar to put on your Avatar symbols, and whatever shows that you're a Die-heart Avatar fan for life!

Chapter 13:

May woke to find her head against Zuko's chest. She could feel an arm around shoulder. May was seriously freaked out. Not that she wasn't used to Zuko, but her head on his chest even though he had a shirt on and his arm on her shoulder.

"morning." said Zuko. May immediately shot up into a sitting position.

"Sorry about that, Zuko." May said.

"It's okay. You were really out of it." replied Zuko. May put her hair back up into a ponytail once more.

"I'd better go take care of the Dragon." said May getting up and heading to the cave. I can NOT be falling for Zuko! I just can't! I mean we're two different people from two DIFFERENT WORLDS! I just can't be falling for him! It's impossible. I seem to care for him like he his part of my family. But yet, I do like him, no matter how many play fights we have or yell at each other. thought May.


"See, there ya go." said May finishing cleaning the wound. The dragon looked over at May.

"You are very skilled when it comes to taking care of wounds." said the dragon.

"Thank you. I just have one question." said May. "What is your name?"

"My name is Flame." said the Dragon. "I don't think I caught your name either."

"I'm May," she said. "And the other person was Prince Zuko."

"I best be off, May." said Flame. "Not to be rude, but I am late right now to something very important."

"I understand." said May. The dragon walked out of the cave and into the sunlight.

"If ever need me, just say my name in the middle of the night on the full moon and I'll be there to help."

"Thank you, I'll remember that." said May. The dragon nodded and took off into the sky above. May watched as its powerful wings lifted the creature higher and higher till it was out of sight. "Wow. I just made friends with a dragon." said May. "Cool!"


May returned to camp to see Zuko meditating in front of the fire.

"About time." said Zuko.

"Whateve." said May.

"Whateve?" said Zuko.

"Our abbreviation of whatever." said May.

"Oh," said Zuko.

"So, are we heading back to the ship or are we just gonna stay here and grow old?" said May.

"Well, I've been waiting to go back now for an hour." said Zuko getting up as he let the fire die out.

"Well what are we waiting for, oh my superior Prince Zuko!" said May jokingly. Zuko only rolled his eyes.

"Follow me." said Zuko heading back to the boat.


On the ship, Iroh and the others were glad to see May back, and Zuko well the crew just said 'hi, prince Zuko.' Zuko was wearing his armor as usual

"Now, Prince Zuko won't have to yell at us!" said a soldier. Zuko only looked at the guard. "Then again he just might."

"He won't yell at you." said May. They all looked at May. "Cus I'll push him over board then and we'll throw a party!" The crew gave a small laugh at this comment. Zuko though only pushed May slightly. May pushed Zuko back causing him to go over aboard. Zuko hit the water with a splash. Zuko looked up at May who was on board.

"When I get up there!" yelled Zuko. "Your dead meat for the komodo rhinos!" A rope was thrown over board and Zuko was pulled up on deck.

"I got you!" said May. "Score one for the American. Zero for the Prince!" May stick out her tongue at Zuko. The crew just went away after that wanting to get away from the flames that might fly. Iroh just went to go get a cup of tea. Zuko threw a fireball at May. May dodged and started running to the front of the deck. Zuko closely following behind. May took a turn and ran down below deck into her room. Zuko followed shutting the door behind with a slam. May jumped onto her bed with Zuko grabbing her wrist. Zuko was dragged onto the bed when May jumped. May tried to get back up put Zuko only pulled her down onto the bed.

"Let go!" said May laughing; trying to get her wrist free.

"Not a chance, May!" said Zuko. May had stopped laughing after five minutes. May was still trying to pry her wrist free from Zuko's grip.

"You know you'll never get your wrist free." said Zuko.

"Oh, yes I will!" said May. "Fine! I'll do anything to have my wrist freed."

"Go on a date with me if you want to." said Zuko.

"So I get to chose if I want to go on a date with you." said May. "That's easy. I'll go."

"Good, because there is going to be a carnival coming up in the next port that we are going to." said Zuko.

"Okay; it can't be worse than Zhao." said May. "So it's settled; I'll go on a date with the Prince of the Fire Nation."


A/N: Well, both May and Zuko are going on theri first date! Hope ya liked it even though it didn't have much action.
