Sometimes Katara would try to tell a joke, but it never turned out funny. Zuko would just say "Yeah just leave the joking to your brother or Toph." Katara would stick her tongue out and hit him playfully on the arm or chest.
One day at the Western Air Temple it was pouring down rain and the Gaang was just playing in the water.
"Hey Zuko why don't you show everybody what you can do with the lighting." Aang said.
"Aang you know I haven't even perfected the move to bring the lightning to me and I don't want to hurt anyone or myself."
"Well you said it was a water bending move right?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Well Katara's here and she doesn't hate you anymore."
Zuko looked over at Katara and smiled sheepishly. "Sure I'll help you." Katara smiled "Which move is it Aang?" She asked. Aang showed her the move. "Easy stuff. All you have to do is bend your knees and move your arms like this." Katara explained. Zuko tried to do the same but failed. Katara tried her best not to laugh but he looked like Toph trying to swim.
"Yeah I know I'm horrible."
"No! Okay you know what, we're gonna be right back." Katara grabbed Zuko's arm and pulled him away from the group. They were now by a stream. It was still raining. "Maybe it will be better if I do this." Katara faced her back toward him and grabbed his wrists and brought them in front of her. She then had a stream of water coiled around both their arms and legs. "That way the water will pull you in the right direction." She exclaimed.
Zuko swallowed the lump in his throat and smiled to himself. They went through the motions. After a while Katara stopped pulling his arms and legs. He had perfected the move. She stopped entirely and he still had his chest to her back. Zuko turned his hands over and enlaced their fingers. Katara turned around and looked up at him, "You perfected the move."
Zuko smiled and whispered in her ear, "Do you wanna see the lightning?"She nodded and Zuko moved down and stole a sweet kiss.
Katara smiled "Forget the lighting. That was electrifying on it's own." They both laughed and kissed again and again.
