"Katara, have I told you how beautiful you are?"

Haru grinned and took Katara's hand.

Zuko did not like this.

At all.

He had been traveling with Katara and the others for a few weeks, when Aang insisted-since they were in the area,- they should go visit this 'Haru' character in his village.

The firebender took an immedeate disliking to him. This earthbending fellow was so..forward with her.

So when he offered to show Katara the town bazaar, Zuko felt he just had to tag along..

..Secretly.

So as Haru led the waterbender through the cluttered streets, Zuko kept a watchful eye from many feet behind them, ready to create a diversion if necessary.

...Even if it meant anonymously setting fire to a stand beside the two.

Later that night, the group sat around their fire.

"How was your day, Katara?" Aang asked.

She smiled.

"It was fun."

Toph smirked. "So you didn't notice Zuko behind you the whole time?"

The firebender paled.

"Uh..Uh..Katara..Um.."

She looked from Zuko to Toph, bewildered.

"You followed me?!"

"He was so..rude.."

"He is my friend! I can't believe you! Who do you think you are-"

Toph groaned.

"Oh, hush, Sugarqueen! It's just because Princey here is jealous!"

Zuko looked as if he had just been hit in the face.

Katara's face was one of pure shock.

"WHAT!?"
