Zuko's P.O.V.
I lay there thinking. Aang was still asleep on my chest and I didn't want to wake him, so I didn't move. Poor Aang, I thought. He's just a kid and yet the whole world is relying on him.
"Zuko?" Aang awoke and looked up.I gently kissed his cheek.
"I promised you I'd stay, didn't I?" I smiled at the memory of his face when I had promised him I'd stay last night.
Aang smiled back and sat up to sit on my lap. I leaned up to kiss him and he met me half way. I placed my hands on his shoulders, pushed him onto his back and followed him so that I was sitting on his chest. I gently pulled away from the kiss, still smiling.
I'd never had any control over anything in my life but Aang gave me total control. He let me control the kisses and let me make decisions.
"Aang," I said. "Want to go and fire bend?"
"Yeah. Come on."
I got up, pulling Aang up after him and lifted Aang onto his back. Aang laughed and wrapped his arms around my neck.
"Zuko…" Aang whined.
"What's wrong?" I asked, praying that I hadn't hurt him.
"You walk really slowly." I laughed and began to run, only stopping when I reached the kitchen. I put Aang down gently and tilted his face up so that I could kiss him, letting our tongues danced. There was a clatter of something being dropped and we both jumped apart, blushing furiously. I saw Katara cooking and glared at the floor.
"Morning Aang, Zuko," said Katara. I jumped and out of the corner of my eye I saw Aang do the same.
"Oh. Morning Katara," said Aang, nervously. "Umm… Zuko and I were just going to practice fire bending."
"Oh, okay. But Zuko, can you please stay here for a moment? I just want to talk to you for a minute." Crap. Had she seen us?
"Sure. Ah, Aang, I'll meet you there," I said, struggling to keep my voice even.
"Okay," Aang looked concerned but saw the look I was sending him that clearly said leave now and left quickly.
I still refused to look up. I was worried about what she'd say.
"Zuko…"
