Zuko's P.O.V
"Zuko…," Katara said suddenly, causing me to jump slightly. I reluctantly looked at her. "I'm confused…"
"About?" I answered too quickly and sounded too angry, even to my own ears. I looked down again.
"Aang," said Katara. I tried not to show any reaction or emotion. "I really like him but I don't know if he likes me back. You've been spending a lot of time with him lately- has he said anything to you?"
"No," I said as emotionlessly as I could.
"What do you think I should do?" At this I looked up and glared at Katara. Was she seriously asking me how I think she should make a move on someone she knows I know she knows I'm with? Was this girl blind, stupid or manipulative? Azula would do something like this- trick me into confessing or force me to confess by saying how much she wants Aang even though he's mine! Okay, settle down. Breathe.
"I don't know." No emotion. Good.
"Do you think he likes me?" Give up! I'm not going to tell you anything!
"I don't know."
"He's been acting weirdly towards me since you arrived. I think I know why." That's it- cut to the chase.
"Why?" I couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"I think it's because I make him nervous. Maybe it's time I flirt back? … Did you know he kissed me? A few times actually-"
"That's it! I can't take it anymore! No, he doesn't like you! I don't want to hear about him kissing you!" I hate her. Breathe. Calm down.
"I knew it! Aww, Zuko, you like him. Don't worry- I won't tell."
"When?" Katara looked confused. "When did you find out?"
"Oh. I went to talk to Aang last night-" I blushed but managed to maintain eye contact. "- and walked in on you too, um, kissing." She looked down. "I swear I won't tell," whispered Katara.
"Thank you. Um, knock next time, okay? Can I go now?" I felt really awkward.
"Oh, uh, yeah."
Okay, sorry this took so long. I keep falling in and out of inspiration and am having trouble writing this. Stupid short chapters :( Any ideas on why Aang will kiss Katara? Help is much appreciated. Haha "She knows I know she knows" lol.
