Shipping: Sukka
When: Anytime before her death, and after she says that she can't see him anymore since she's engaged.
Sokka smiled at Yue, who was looking over the bridge railing. She sighed as he saw the cold, crisp air hovering her.
"Yue," he said, "Can we talk?"
"What can we talk about?" she asked, glancing at Sokka coming down the walk. There was more cold her in her voice than in the air.
"I don't think it's fair you didn't let me explain," he said, joining her. "I know you're engaged and it's not fair for you to like me more than your fiancé." He sighed, "But I wanted you to know that – "
"Sokka, you're making this harder," she said, shutting her eyes tight. "I appreciate you trying to fix this, but nothing will work. I'm engaged to a very selfish person and we can't do anything about it."
"We could, Yue," he answered. "But we both have to want to do it."
She glanced at him, and let him tell her his idea.

"Are you sure this will work?" Yue asked quietly to Sokka.
He shrugged, unsure. "Unfortunately, no."
Yue's father, Chief Arnook, came to the door they had just knocked on.
"Yue? Sokka?" he said this by surprised, but smiled in both of their presence. "Nice to see you, Sokka," and firmly shook his hand.
"Dad…" Yue bit her bottom lip, unsure what to say. "I don't want to be engaged to Hahn anymore."
Her father's smile disappeared and fell about five hundred feet. His eyebrows were knit together, and an angry look came across.
"You cannot decide this kind of decision, Daughter," was all he said before closing the door slowly in their faces.
Tears came to Yue's face, and Sokka protested. "No, let's talk to him again."
"It's final," she cried, as Sokka took her into his arms. She buried her face in his parka and wiped her face with her hands.
Even if she let go, he wouldn't, Sokka promised himself.
"It's not," he tried to convince her, even though he knew that it probably was.
Yue looked at him, and then pulled away, "You know what? I don't care what my father says. I want to marry you. Not Hahn. His ego is bigger than his heart."
"You…you want to marry me?" Sokka was completely speechless.
"Yes, Sokka. I deserve you, and I know Hahn doesn't deserve me."
Sokka's eyes widened. He hadn't even said 'I love you' yet to her. But if he was a better choice than Hahn, then that was okay.
"What about your father?" he asked. "And…we can't just get married!"
Yue's eyes filled up with tears. She hugged him again. "I know," she said, "it's just a spur of a moment thing. But I want to. It doesn't have to be official. But if I'm married to somebody else, I can't marry Hahn – "
"Your father can forbid it all," Sokka said sadly.
Yue's eyes grew sadder, wishing she hadn't been engaged to Hahn.
And Chief Arnook looked through his window, over his city. But that's when he saw his daughter, in the arms of her protector…Sokka? He saw the look on her face and the tears from her eyes. Maybe this arranged marriage was a bad idea.
But before he could say anything, they were off to the spirit oasis.
Read in case you didn't get the ending: this is the part where Yue has to give her life to the moon spirit. She had the chance of marrying Sokka, but it was all a little too late.
