Katara's POV
As soon as we arrived at the palace people were running around decorating, placing chairs for the guests, cooking, and bringing supplies. Almost as soon as we entered we were all pulled apart to get ready for the wedding. Azula and I were taken to a room to get ready and Sokka and Zuko were also taken to get ready. The wedding was tonight and even though I am already married I couldn't help but feel butterflies in my stomach.
Azula and I were washed with the best scented oils you could find. Our bodies were toweled off and sprayed with scented sprays. We were taken in to a room and placed on platforms as the dressers ran around wrapping us in the robes and sashes.
Azula and I had asked to be prepared for the wedding together feeling that maybe it would relieve some of the tingly feeling but it only worsened as I saw Azula having the same expression as mine on her face.
We were instructed to sit as the women painted our faces with make-up and fixed our hair. The tugging and pulling was unbearable and by Azula expression I think she thought the same. It was a nice relief when the last tug was over. Our feet were slipped into new 2 inch sandals and we were told we were ready for the wedding.
Before we got out of the chairs the dressers heard a knock at the door. A young girl a little older than I walked over and opened the door to reveal a smiling Fire Lady Ursa. The dressers walked over and bowed as Fire Lady Ursa whispered something in there ear. The dressers nodded and bowed as they exited the room leaving Azula, Fire Lady Ursa, and I alone.
Fire lady Ursa smiled kindly at us and sat in the chair next to us.
"You girls look beautiful." She said admiring our appearance.
"Thank you Lady Ursa." I say.
"Yes, Thank you mother." Azula said.
It was silent for quite some time before Lady Ursa spoke.
"Are you girls nervous?" Lady Ursa asked.
"Very much so mother." Azula admitted.
"Me too." I admitted letting out a sigh.
"I remember when I was your age and I was marrying Ozai. I was terribly nervous before the wedding." Lady Ursa admitted.
"Really?" Azula asked curiously.
"Yes." Lady Ursa answered nodding.
"Was there a reason you were so nervous?" I ask.
"Yes. You see my father had died before I was married and as tradition he was the one to escort me down the hall because he was no longer with me I had to walk alone. I was terribly upset of the thought of falling or of ruining the wedding. I believe that because I was so upset at having no escort I could only think of the other bad things and not of the good things." Lady Ursa explained.
"Well, what did you do?" Azula asked now leaning forward.
"I walked to the doors and as they opened up I was so scared. I thought of only running back to my room and crying but I knew I had to do this so I walked forward and married him. But I won't do that to you girls. Because as Fire lady Ursa Ruler of the fire nation we will practice a new law for the first time today. I declare that Brides shall be walked down the hall by anyone of there choice. If you girls would like I would like to walk you both down the hall. If that's okay?" She says smiling.
"It's more than okay!" Azula and I exclaim as we run forward and hug her as she embraces us.
"Then to the Wedding?" Lady Ursa asks holding her hands out to us.
"To the Wedding." Azula and I say simultaneously as we take her hands and walk to the doors holding our future.

Zuko's POV
I sat on the chair staring into the mirror at myself. The expression on my face mirrored the feeling I had in my stomach. My abdomen was tingling with the thought of a new life to begin and everything that would come with it.
My mind was deep in thought as a knock at the door broke me out of my thoughts.
"Come in." I say turning towards the door.
"Hello favorite nephew." Uncle said smiling as he took a seat beside me.
"Uncle, I'm your only nephew." I retort.
"All the more reason for you to be my favorite." Uncle says laughing.
I sit there as Uncle's laughter calms down and he realizes the expression on my face.
"What is wrong nephew?" Uncle asks.
"I'm nervous Uncle. I've tried everything but nothing works I just… I don't feel like I'll be able to go out there." I admit.
"You've got a case of cold feet. I remember your father had this. I believe that was the day he threw 7 vases at people. We tried to calm him down but everyone we sent in came running out." Uncle said laughing.
"What did you do to calm him down?" I ask.
"Well I tried to go in to talk to him after he actually hit someone with a vase. That was a mistake for it only had him throw a vase at me. But then I figured out how to calm him down." Uncle said smiling at the memory.
"How?" I asked curiously.
"I slipped a paper with something he needed to hear underneath his door." Uncle said.
"What did it say?" I ask.
"When a wall seems impossible to climb look for an open gate." Uncle quotes.
"What does it mean Uncle?" I ask.
"It means dear nephew that when you reach a problem in your life such as fear and you feel you can't overcome it look for something you know will allow you to overcome it such as a gate or door being in a wall." Uncle explains.
"Thank you Uncle." I say a few minutes passed.
"Your welcome nephew. However perhaps I should have told Sokka that for he seems more nervous than everyone else." He says laughing as he and I stand making our way to the wedding.

Katara's POV
I stand in front of the large doors awaiting there opening. My arm hooked with Lady Ursa's and Lady Ursa's other arm hooked with Azula's arm.
"Take a deep breath." Lady Ursa says looking at Azula and me.
"Are you ready?" she asks as the doors are about to open.
Azula and I look at each other and smile.
"Yes." We say in unison.
The doors open to reveal the gardens countless guests seated in wooden chairs turn to watch as Azula and I enter. I smile kindly and focus my attention on Zuko. He stands there his eyes fixated only on me. My eyes widen as I take in Zuko's appearance.
He is dressed in black pants clearly silk as per Fire Nation tradition. His usual red armor placed upon his shoulders and upper body. I can guess that underneath that is his black shirt. His feet tucked into his up turned toe slippers.
His hair is shaggy and un-kept as usual. I smirk at the thought of his dressers trying to fix his hair but barely having anything to work with.
Slowly I realize that I am standing in front of him and Lady Ursa releases my arm placing my hand in Zuko's out held one. He smirks as I walk up the stairs and all I can do is smile back the butterfly feeling I once had melting away completely.

Zuko's POV
I stand at the top of the stairs awaiting Katara's arrival to me. I look towards Sokka whose face clearly describes what he's feeling inside. Nervousness. I can barely believe we persuaded him to come here. Then again we practically had to drag him here.
My thoughts become interrupted as the doors open revealing my mother with Azula on one arm and Katara on the other. Katara smiles kindly at the guests until her sight is focused on me. I see her eyes widen as she takes in my appearance. I inwardly smirk knowing just by her face my appearance pleases her.
Taking my eyes from Katara's face I take in her appearance. She is dressed in a long robe that just brushes the floor. It begins as a dark red at the collar and as you go further down the robe gets lighter in color until you reach the bottom which is colored a light orange.
Her hair is placed in a tight bun clearly they braided her hair and then wrapped it up into a bun to give it a different look. While braiding it they must have intertwined into it fire lilies.
Her face is made up with new face paint. Her eye lids colored in a dark black and her lips painted in a dark red. Her cheeks tinted with a hint of red blush.
Her feet are clad in black sandal shoes with a short heel. These shoes were probably chosen so that the robe didn't drag on the floor too much.
Mother hands off Azula and releases Katara while giving her a reassuring smile. She turns towards me and I smirk as she lifts her robe as she walks up the stairs to me.

Azula's POV
The doors open after Katara and I exchange smiles. As I turn my head to the person at the end of the hall I can barely believe its Sokka. He scratches nervously at the back of his head and blushes as he examines my appearance.
He is dressed in light red pants and a light red shirt. Atop the red shirt perched on his shoulders is red armor the same as Zuko's. The chest plate covering his front. His feet also adorned in the same shoes as Zuko.
The only indication that he was Sokka was his skin color and his wolf tail. I near him as my mother releases me and gives me a little push smiling as she turns to release Katara. I look up to see Sokka still blushing madly as I climb the stairs to him.

Sokka's POV
I stand at the top of the stairs trying to ignore the stairs by looking anywhere but the guests. Finally the doors open and the guest's attentions are turned towards the two girls entering the garden.
I look up only to have my gaze locked upon Azula. I can feel my face heat up at how pretty she looks and I try to avoid anyone from seeing it.
She is dressed in a dark red robe that reaches her ankles. The robe is black at the cuffs and orange symbols are embroidered upon these cuffs.
Her hair is placed in a tight bun atop her head with the tiny crown perched upon it. However instead of just the crown the placed tiny flowers around it giving her a less stern look.
Her face is painted with the new face paints just as my sister's is. Her eyelids are a painted a bright orange that makes her eyes stand out and seem a dark gold. Her full thick lips are painted a light red as to not distract people form her eyes.
Her feet are placed in light red sandal shoes with a small heel. Making the robe hit her at just her ankle right above the shoe.
As she reaches the stairs I feel my cheeks become fire red for she caught me staring at her attire. Lady Ursa releases her and she starts her walk up the stairs.

Katara's POV
We had just left the party and it was late at night however the party was still in full swing. Zuko and I had been congratulated by people whom I've never even met before. Zuko had walked over to his mother later in the evening to let her know we would be retiring to our room. As he walked back over he smirked as he grabbed my hand. This is where I am right now being pulled down a long hall in the palace by Zuko who refuses to tell me where we are going.
Finally pulled out of my thoughts I had realized we stopped. We were standing in a doorway of a large room. Curious as to the room I took my hand from Zuko's grasp and walked inside. The room was a dark red but with tinges of orange and black. In the middle of the large room was a large bed that was covered with red and black sheets and various pillows thrown on top. Beside that was a tiny dresser and large closets on both sides of the room. In front of the bed about ten feet away was a fire place and mats placed in front of it with which we could sit. I walked to the other side of the room to discover a bathroom attached to this room. It had all the luxuries and things I couldn't even imagine what they were. I ran around the room looking at everything with wide eyes and curiosity. Only when the echo of doors being closed was I snapped out of my trance.
I turn to see Zuko standing in front of the doors with a smirk. I'm mesmerized by him as I realize it only took 3 strides for him to get to me. His face mere inches from mine. His hand cups my cheek as he leans forward our eyes never straying from on another's. His lips touch mine softly as he gives me the most caring kiss he ever has. My eyes flutter shut as I get lost in the sweetness of this gesture but just as soon as it starts it stops. He pulls away only to grab my hand and lead me to the bed.
As we reach the edge of the bed he kisses me once again with such tenderness. I feel his hands running up and down my sides as they reach the sash of my robe. He pulls away and stares deeply into my eyes as I feel the soft silk slip from my body and land with a soft thump on the floor.
My hands move forward taking off his armor and dropping it on the floor leaving him in only his pants and shirt. I lean forward capturing his lips in a slightly more passionate kiss than his. Slowly Zuko moves back as I feel my knees hit the edge of the bed I slowly fall back Zuko landing on top of me but our kiss never breaking.
I smile against Zuko's lips as we hit the bed. I slowly drag my hand down his chest to the hem of his shirt. I grab it and pull it off of him and throw it on the floor. Zuko slowly nips at my neck as his hands reach around to undo my breast wrap. Slowly taking that off his finger drags down my stomach to the top of my undergarment. Ripping it off he smirks as he looks upon my naked body. His eyes examine everything as if it were our first time. His hands run over my body mesmerizing every curve as my hands run up his chest to his neck and play with his hair.
I close my eyes as I feel his hand wrap around my breast slowly massaging it. I moan as both hands leave me to attend to my breasts. He slowly kneads them flicking his finger every once in a while over my erect nipple. Cooing for him and moaning as his hands leave my breasts. I grab him and pull him up to me smashing my lips against his. Our lips firm against one another's. My tongue running over his slowly.
Soon my hands have found the waist band of his pants. I grab it and yank it down as he gets up our lisp separating to get the rest of the material off of him. His erection is not hidden it is in plane sight swaying from side to side as he walks toward me. As I take him into my arms he slides into my awaiting arousal. Completely buried in me I look into his eyes and smile as we thrust back and forth. Moaning loudly I hear him grunt. Hi neck buried in the crook of my shoulder. My legs wrapped around his waist for better penetration.
I moan his name loudly as I come and he soon comes not far behind. Pulling out of me he carries and places me in my side of the bed. Going over to his side he wraps his arm around my waist and pulls the covers over us as I lay there and watch as his eyes flutter shut and enjoying the peace and aftermath of my pleasure.

Azula's POV
Sokka and I left not soon after Zuko and Katara making our way to my room. Or as I should say our room. We had transformed my room into a larger room to fit Sokka and me into it.
As we make our way in I push Sokka in and close the door behind us. I hunger with lust for Sokka because we had been touching each other intimately underneath the table all night. Locking it with precision I turn around. A candle is the only thing lighting my way as I walk to Sokka. Grabbing his hands I place them on my hips as I lean forward and catch his lips. His lips are cool and soft as I press mine more firmly against his. His hand roams down and grabs my sash startling me and allowing him to slip his tongue into my mouth. I recover quickly as he undoes my sash allowing the robe to pool around my feet.
Our tongues duel as we make our way to the bed. Slowly dropping Sokka's Armor along the way. Sokka switches our places and I land on the bed with Sokka on top. He breaks the kiss quickly and takes off his shirt. Moving towards me he takes off my top undergarment and throws it carelessly to the floor.
Our lips smash against each others as hands claw at the remaining material separating us. Soon the material is gone and he is pumping in and out of me slowly almost teasingly at first and then rams into me all his strength. I moan as does he as I move my hips in a circular motion against his thrusts. I reach for the back of his neck and slam my lips against his and moan into his mouth as we both come.
I drop my hands by my sides as he pulls out. As he lies beside me my hand goes over to his and grasps his hand in mine. Our fingers entangling together as we lay there smiling and staring back at each other.

Katara's POV
I had stayed awake for part of the night watching Zuko sleep. The moon was bright and the light being emitted from it was amazing. I had decided to make my first entry in a new diary that Fire Lady Ursa had given me as a gift. Taking out the book I sat down and began to write in the empty pages. My writings were full of the wonderful events that had happened with our weddings. The family and friends attending, the jokes shared, the gifts received, and most importantly the weddings nights. Before I know it I have filled 25 pages back to front. I smile as I read over it. Dating it and locking it I place the book back in the drawer and make my way to bed placing Zuko's arm once again over my waist and smile as I realize this is my life from now on and I'm going to love every minute of it.
