Haha, this is were the plot really picks up, but don't worry it should get fluffy towards the end. I own nothing except the storyline

Sokka and Toph were utterly shocked by the way both Katara and Aang were treating each other. It was cold and harsh, lots of yelling and silent mutters when the other would storm off to blow some steam. It didn't take much for the two to start fighting, a simple action comment, and they were off yelling at each other. Yet Sokka observed that the two were hurt by their yelling and arguing, Aang would disappear on walks long, throw Appa's ball farther. Katara was killing what ever meal she made, her movements were no longer fluid or soft.

Zuko took her out more, daily it seemed, yet there was always something different. Zuko had invited her to some corporate ball that both he and his uncle were attending. He needed a date and Katara fit the bill rather nicely. Katara had gone all out for it, doing her hair for what seemed to be two hours, eve with Toph's 'help'. Her dress was long at flowing; show cased her curves and body nicely. Her graceful walked seemed short lived, for it turned into another yelling feast and Aang leaving with Appa.

Zuko came in his usual manner, taking Katara in his usual manner. If there was one thing about Zuko, it was that he didn't change much, mind was slightly one-tracked, but it there was some difference each time. The drive to the ball was a quiet one, Katara was fiddling with her long jacket, remember Aang's caring words he always said. Be careful It was always that, but Katara took it this time.

They strided into the ball, it was far to fancy to what Katara was use too, she didn't know anyone there. Zuko on the other had dragged her to many different people, who all seemed to be old friends of his. Katara gave her normal hello and nice meeting yous but she felt out of place. She was afraid she would screw up and just want to go home and die.

"Katara?" A woman named Ty Lee said.

"Yes?" Katara asked.

"What do you do exactly?"

"Oh, I run my fathers business, my brother didn't want it so I got it for Christmas, yeah me."

"Oh." Ty Lee's face fell.

"It's perfectly fine." Katara defended.

"Yes, well, I'm surprised Zuko's sinking that low. A middle class girl who runs her fathers business. Mai's going to get a laugh out of this."

"Mai?"

"Oh, she's Zuko's ex-girlfriend, but the two can't help but love each other. They got in a big fight last time and she found some other guy, real jerk if you ask me, and Zuko got jealous so he must have found you." Ty Lee said laughing a little.

"He's using me!"

"He's a lawyer what do you expect."

"And I thought he was saying that because he was jealous. Oh why didn't I listen to Aang?" Katara said falling back in a chair and crying softly.

"I'm guessing Aang's a good friend."

"He's my life line." Katara explained. "I have to go, tell Zuko to leave me alone."

"There you are Ty Lee." Some woman said. "Have you seen that Leech Zuko."

"No but I found his tool." Ty Lee said pointing to a sniffling Katara. "Katara, Mai, Mai, Katara."

"Dear God he went after you." Mai said, she was a grim woman. "Look I'm so sorry you got dragged to all of this."

"No, no, I see how it is." Katara said gathering her things. "I fell into the trap, sorry for coming here."

Katara raced off, biting back the tears as she ran for the door. Zuko stopped her but she pushed him off her and on to the floor, racing off. She came to the lobby and got on an elevator, there was nothing holding her back now.

"Please, everyone stay calm." The police yelled and Aang wondered what in the world was going on. He noticed the crowd was looking up, and looked up to find the sight he didn't want to see again. There sitting on the edge, dress flapping in the wind, was the woman he had pulled off the railing months ago. Katara was sitting there at the top, and Aang was frozen with fear. He wedged his way through the crowd, and up through the front.

"Katara." He said to himself, before noticing Zuko. "What did you do?!"

"Nothing." Zuko defended.

"Don't lie Zuko, you used her." Some woman said hitting him, and Aang wanted to do the same only repeatedly.

"I knew you were up to something and I was right." Aang said storming over and delivering a punch to Zuko's jaw. The cops ran over and held him back. "I will hold you personally responsible if something happens to her. I've lost enough people in my sorry life to lose her."

"What's the worse you could do? And theirs no way your life was sorry then mine." Zuko said getting up.

"You don't want to know what the hell I can do." Aang hissed, getting lose from the cops. "I've lost both my parents, my one and only relative that cared, my best friend who never gave up on me. I don't want to lose anyone else; I don't want to take that path again."

Aang raced into the building before anyone could stop him, making his way to the roof. He slammed open the door, panting hard, getting the sudden rush from warm to cold. Katara didn't seem to move, and Aang slowly made his way so he was a little ways behind her. He could hear her crying softly, mumbling things.

"Katara, come down from there." Sokka's voice suddenly rang through speakers. Katara looked up slightly.

"Move Snoozles, you suck as calming people down." Toph voice said taking over. "Come on Katara, we can go home and I'm sure Aang would have something nice to tell you."

"No, Aang we'll probably laugh in my face, tell me he was right the whole time." Katara yelled and Aang's heart broke. "I'm not coming down, no one cares!"

"I care." Aang said speaking up, and Katara turned to him shocked. She stared at his serious face; it was grim and firm, yet soft and gentle.

"Aang?" She questioned. "What, when, how, why?"

"I'm here to stop you; maybe I was a jealous jerk who was concerned. And I ran up the stairs about two minutes ago. Because I don't want to lose you." Aang said gently.

"You're just saying that."

"Katara if you jump, I can a sure you, my life while take that dark path. You know how scared I was the first time, I can't turn around the second time, I couldn't if you weren't here."

"Aang stop."

"No, I won't. I'll do everything to get into jail. I can't live without you, you don't know what its like to wake up and know that someone not going be there to say good morning."

"But I do."

"Katara put yourself in my shoes, you know what I've done, switch the places. What would you do?"

"I don't know." Katara sobbed. "Why are you doing this Aang?"

"I've already had enough death and pain, I don't need anymore." Aang said. "Also because, I can't dare watch the woman I love do this to herself."

"The woman you love?"

"Yes, Katara, I deeply in love with you, and I would gladly follow you if you jumped."

Hahaha, its a cliffy, told you it would only get more fluzzy at the end. Please RXR
