OkI just felt like I wanted to write a sad fic.Idk. I got this idea from someone tho. So enjoy,I wrote it without editing again. Sorry, XD. It might be off...
I do not own the Avatar, and never will...:(
It was love, I'm sure of it.
We were in love, Katara. I felt the most amazing and terrifying emotions when you were near. It did scare me, loving you. I didn't want to, I almost refused to let myself. Love was not for a banished Prince.
I never thought I would love another (even if I had an arranged marriage); even when we actually first met, and first actually talked instead of battling, I never believed that I would ever feel that way for anyone. But you…you understood me. I don't know how; we were different people from different nations. You were a waterbender, and I, a firebender. You were a simple girl from the southern tribe until you met the Avatar, and I was a Prince of the Fire Nation until I got banished.
But, you seemed to understand how I felt, how it was to keep emotions and pasts locked away. I didn't know how you knew, but you did.
You were the only one who ever saw my vulnerable side. At first, I didn't know why I let you, didn't know why I let myself even talk to you that day. You were my enemy—set to fight my father and bring peace with the Avatar. And I, trying to capture the Avatar and to regain my honor.
I don't remember who gave in first, who let everything out first when we were stuck in that cave. For, despite all the hours we spent together there, we never fully opened up to each other, heck even talked. We kept our secrets and emotions hidden, not fully trusting the other, not wanting to trust.
But one day in that cave, one of us conceded, and one of us let our feelings through. Our pasts.
You felt sympathy for my past, I didn't want it, but that was when you touched my scar. I don't know how, but both of us were shedding silent tears by the end of that conversation. And before I knew it, we fell in love, after our time together in that cave.
We were together often at midnight, we trusted each other more, and we talked. It was as close to ecstasy as I have ever felt.
But you were with the Avatar, the only thing that I needed to get my honor back.
So you tried to convince me to be on your side. I wasn't sure about it; I said I would think about it. It was not until later on, I realized I loved you too much. I loved you so much; I would do anything for you. So when I went to tell you, I saw you kissing the Avatar. You broke my heart… you betrayed me that day.
I got angry with you. When you were trying to explain, I didn't listen and hit you instead.
I hit you because I loved you, Katara. It hurt so much, to know that you betrayed me that you kissed someone else, maybe even loved. I couldn't understand it at all; I loved you, and I thought you had loved me as well. The only explanation I could think of for why you would do this was that you had never loved me, that you had been acting all along, trying to get close enough to make me not chase your love anymore. I loved you…I loved you more than anyone, and you had deceived me.
It was love, Katara. It was only ever broken love.
I grew bitter over it after time. I hated you, and loved you at the same time. I couldn't stop loving you. You had hurt me by kissing someone else, and still I loved you. But you weren't going to stand in my way of capturing the Avatar. I was still going after him.
Then I saw you again, I kept my face blank when you turned away in shame. The Avatar looked angry, I didn't care, I was going to capture him.
You love him. I know you do. It may be a fake love, just a simple crush, but you love him. I could tell by your eyes, the way you look at him.
The way you looked at me.
But I don't want you anymore. You'll just be a memory. I doubt you would keep me as a memory.
But just remember Katara, I was your first.
Tell me what you think! Review!
