I looked to the side and saw exactly who was standing there. It was the one and only Zuko.

"Uh, hey there." Zuko said. "I know I'm probably the last person you'd expect to b-"

"Not really." Aang said cutting him off. "You're always following us."

"Um, right. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that I've changed, and uh, I wanted to join you guys. I know how this must sound...but I...I dunno I wanted to teach Aang firebending, and I now realize that's my destiny."

Aang and I exchanged glances. "Zuko, we can't trust you." I said sternly.

"I know I know. It must be hard for you guys to forgive me, but believe me, I am different now. I uh, you guys really need to trust me. I think this is probably the only way Aang can learn firebending."

I looked at Aang and he had a serious look on his face. "Zuko..." He said walking up to Zuko. "I would like you to be my firebending teacher." Then he looked back at Toph, Sokka, and me. "Of course, only if my friends are okay with it..."

He first looked at Toph who shrugged and nodded. He then looked at Sokka who hesitated but nodded. Lastly, his big grey eyes stared at me. I looked down and thought for a moment. I clenched my fist and nodded slowly.

Once I nodded Zuko smiled. "THANK YOU! I won't let you down!"

Later that day, everyone was settled in their rooms, when I decided to talk to Aang. I knocked on his door. No answer. I gasped, assuming the worst.

"AANG! AANG! PLEASE TELL ME YOUR IN THERE!" I said struggling to open the door.

When I got it open I saw Aang sitting on his bed with a raised eyebrow. "Calm down, Katara." He said chuckling.

I sighed with relief and sat next to him. "I'm sorry. It just makes me so scared thinking about him hurting you...like he and Azula had back in the cave." I said starting to cry. "He gained my trust and I actually felt bad for him. And what did he do? He betrayed me and teamed up with Azula. I just...Just dont think I can trust him after that." I looked into his serious stormy eyes. "I don't think I could stand living in a world where you weren't there." I began crying harder. "How you always brighten up my days, and-" I was cut off by Zuko entering the room.

"Katara, can I talk to you?" He asked.

"Um, yea." I responded walking out of Aang's room with him. "What do you w-mph!" I was stopped by Zuko's mouth on mine. He had me against the wall and I tried to push him away, but he was too strong. I moved my gaze and saw Aang. His eyebrow was raised in disbelief. He twitched slightly and I could tell that the way this made him feel was too much for him to draw tears. He just shook his head, gagged a bit, then walked back in his room and shut the door.

(Five minutes earlier with Aang.)

I was waiting for Katara when I heard a sound that sounded kind of like she was hurt by Zuko. I opened the door to find Zuko kissing Katara against the wall. At first, I thought I was imagining it, because I knew Katara would never do that.

After a few seconds of staring I felt like someone sliced my heart. It felt as if part of my heart broke in half. I gagged disgusted, and stepped slowly back into my room, shutting the door behind me.

(Back to Katara.)

I finally got Zuko off of me and I growled. "What was that?" I hissed.

"No, NO! I'M SORRY! I-I thought it might calm you down. I don't really like you." He started. "It's just Sokka told me he thought you had a crush on me, so I thought I could calm you down, but apparently, he was wrong." He said laughing. "I, uh...When you can, tell Aang I'm sorry so he'll still accept me as his firebending teacher..."

"How did you know that we were...um, kinda uh..." I said, blushing madly.

He just chuckled and shook his head. "It's kind of obvious. Though I'm uh...not sure why I listened to Sokka." He said slapping his forehead.

"O-Okay...But never do that again, or I think both Aang and I will be scarred." I said gagging.

"Ha...Sorry." He said rubbing the back of his neck. "My heart already belongs to another girl anyway."

"Well, I hope you guys are happy together." I said smiling. I then narrowed my eyes and poked his chest. "But I still don't trust you."

"Wasn't planning on it..." He said sighing.

I walked up to Aang's room and knocked on the door. Once again, no answer. I opened the door and didn't see Aang anywhere. It was until I saw a little rock tent in the corner that I realized he was probably inside. I looked around it and saw no opening, so I sighed and sat down next to it.

"Aang, please open your tent."

No answer.

"Aang?"

Still no answer, but I heard him moving. I got up and ran towards the opposite wall when he all of the sudden took down the whole tent.

I looked at him. I expected him to be crying, but he wasn't. He just looked at me, expressionless.

"Aang...I just wanted you to know Zuko kissed me. And not even because he likes me, it was because Sokka thought I liked Zuko, and he told Zuko that and Zuko thought it would make me calm down. But the truth is..." I said picking up his hand and squeezing it. "i l-l...lo...ve you. Only you."

He looked at my hand then me. I could see a grin starting to spred on his lips. "I love you too." He stated before grabbing my waist and kissing me hard. I put my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. I moved my mouth a little off of his every so often to breathe.

Soon we were on the floor, with him on top of me, making out. I felt so complete. It was until someone opened the door, that I stopped moving my lips.
