Hey everyone I know that I haven't updated this story in a while and I thought that I would go ahead and get to work on this. :D What a concept!
Anyway this chapter took me a long time to post and I apologize for that. I haven't really been in the mood to write and when I do it is for another story that I have problems finishing. I know I shouldn't make myself committed to a story when I can't at least half finish it. I think that the problem is, is that I try to make the chapters long and I get bored with the story fast and I fear that all of my school work has been partially to blame for all of this. Thanks and happy reading!
Wedding Day
The day had finally come and Suki had gotten everything ready for this special day, earlier in the week the servants had her measured for her Royal Robes that she would be wearing for the rest of her life as the Fire Lady. Her new robes were going to be the traditional red but with green trim instead of the normal gold, Zuko knew that Suki would still want a little bit of her Kyoshi tradition in her robes. Zuko himself was being dressed in the traditional wedding robes, he was so happy that his friends were able to make it. Of course it wouldn't be a wedding if the Avatar and his wife weren't there to see the Fire Lord be married, Zuko had attended the wedding of the Avatar and the Water Bender.
The wedding went on smoothly and nothing could have made it better, Zuko and Suki were happy that they were finally together and were surrounded by all of their friends. The entire Fire Nation had attended and were filled with joy from the new events. Suki noticed that neither Sokka nor Toph had bothered to show up to support their friends like Aang and Katara had.
"I'm sorry Suki, Sokka is being a total dick and I wish that I could have changed his mind about not coming. You know how much of a pain he is." Katara wrapped a arm around her friend knowing that it really didn't matter.
"Sokka will be Sokka. I didn't really even expect him to come, it would have been nice to see him again but I guess I will when we go to one of the council meetings he should be there to represent the Southern Water Tribe." She smiled not wanting to ruin her happiness because of a old jack ass.
"This is very true, he does try his hardest when it comes to things like that." Katara smiled and left to go and see where Aang had gone. Suki looked around and found her way back to Zuko who was doing business with one of the guards, she guessed that it was probably because the guard did something that Zuko hadn't ordered him to do.
"Is something wrong?" She tipped her head as she stood close to Zuko causing his lips to curl up in a loving smile.
"No, nothing is wrong. He just was informing me that the Earth Nation has requested a meeting with me tomorrow. Thankfully they are coming here." Zuko smiled and the guard ran off to where he had been posted.
"Oh. Well hopefully things will be resolved between the Fire Nation and the Earth Nation." Zuko was so happy that she took on the role of Fire Lady so easily, he thought that the change between Kyoshi Warrior and Fire Lady would have been a rough transaction but Suki acted like this is all she has known. The truth was that she had sat in and over heard so many meetings that Zuko has been having lately that she was just able to put two and two together.
The celebrating was coming to an end as the Avatar and Katara departed on Appa, Suki and Zuko had left all the celebrations to spend some time together as husband and wife. When they got back to the room Suki stripped of her formal robes and changed into her normal Kyoshi shirt and tights that she always wore. Zuko folded his formal clothes and put them away, he came back to her in just his normal sweat pants that he wore when he was relaxing. She ran her fingers over his chest feeling every muscle tighten at her touch, she traced the scar on his chest from when he fought his sister. Suki was thankful that Katara saved his life, it would have been hard to deal with if Zuko didn't exist and Azula was the Fire Lord. She shook her head at the thought of that causing Zuko to give her a funny look.
"What was that?" Zuko tipped her chin up to look at him, she looked at him and gave him a loving smile.
"Oh just thinking about if Azula had killed you and she was the Fire Lady. Scary Thought" Suki rolled her eyes at the silliness of it all. Zuko chuckles at the thought, even though he wasn't sure what exactly brought this thought on.
"That is a scary thought, but that didn't happen." He gives her a kiss and wrapped her in a tight warm embrace. Suki loved the warmth that Zuko put off, it was comforting.
They spent the rest of the night wrapped in each other's arms, not wanting to morning to come where they would have to part and deal with their own duties.
