They reached the little town, and searched for a motel/ inn or anything, but found no luck…. So they returned to the woods and decided that it would be best to rest and then go searching for a motel in the morning. Zuko got right to work with the fire and Katara set up her bunk that she would now have to share with Zuko. "What are we going to eat?" Zuko suddenly asked with curiosity. "Ummmmm…. Is fish ok? I don't have anything else." He grinned at her kind gesture and went to give her a hug. She returned the embrace and titled her head to his shoulder…. "Zuko, what are we going to do now? I mean now that we're together, where are we going to go? What are we going to do?" He looked at her, straight into her eyes and said. "What do you want us to do? We could get married; have a little place of our own. We could tour the world or visit the Gang or….." She put her finger to his lips.

"I… love you Zuko." He smiled a wide grin at her, flashing his teeth. "I knew you did, let's eat." He let go of her face and held her hand as they walked to the fire. They ate in silence, with a couple of glances to one another. He walked up to her and lifted her up to sit on his lap. "You tired?" She simply nodded, letting the fish go down her throat. He kissed her neck and saw her shiver slightly on him. She got up and took his hands. "Let's go to bed." He lifted the blanket and tucked them inside; he wrapped one arm around her waist and nuzzled her neck. "Good night, love." He whispered in her ear. "Good night Zuko." She smiled and rested her hand his….
