Kissing the Avatar was- well she wasn't that sure about it. She only knew these things for certain-
It was nothing like how Zuko kissed
She didn't feel weird about it or anything even though she had to bend down a bit
That the feelings caused might of been because maybe she drank one too many spiked Lychee drinks
So in a way it was- nice.
So there they were standing in front of her house because Aang had kindly offered to walk her home (but really Mai grabbed his hand and drag him). But Aang really kissed her. Mai wondered whether he had one too many drinks as well, but he didn't seem to be wobbling as he walked like she was.
His lips were warm and soft and it felt so gentle nothing at all like Zuko's rougher lips and as he kissed she felt an instant reaction to kiss him back.
Dear Agni Mai thought I sound like a romance novelist.
She flopped onto her red covered bed and looked at her bedside table.
A picture of both her and Zuko lay on the firewood surface staring at her. She took the picture and observed it more carefully. She looked so dull on it. Do smiling not even wrapping her arms around him. It was just so formal and boring. Mai rolled her eyes. What was she thinking? This was not her. Definitely- she was the emotionless rock not some flimsy love sick bird. Amused at her own thoughts she wondered if the avatar could bend emotions. She took the painting of her ex-boyfriend and herself out of its frame and slipped it into a drawer of her bedside table. She wasn't going to tear it up; that would just say she was one of those typical girls.
Her mind drifted off the topic of her ex and went back to the Avatar. It was just a simple little kiss that's all; we were out of our minds and to prove that you should remember the hangover you had this morning. Besides that- how old is he? Around ten or eleven probably...but still he has time to grow and all, wonder how he will look when he's older...
The image of the Avatar taller, wearing his traditional air temple robes came into her mind. The next image was the Avatar as he was now and Mai compared the two images. The 'older' Avatar looked quite nice to be perfectly honest and when he took her to the bar for a drink he was certainly nice to her, that's for sure but a bit more annoying than Zuko. Though when the Avatar made mistakes it was...cute. With Zuko it just cramped his style and pushed his ego way to high...that ice cream...she didn't even like ice cream and that shell probably had something infested in it...not to mention the bad pick up lines...
Mai groaned and got up off the bed. Today she was supposed to attend a meeting with the Fire Lord, representative of the water tribe a.k.a his new girl friend, representative of the earth kingdom the blind little girl and the air nomads no one else but the Avatar himself. Mai was there because her father was political and slightly because she was the Fire Lord's ex girlfriend.
Getting there was easy, cross the street and there was the palace, sometimes it was nice to live near the palace. She found her way to the room where the meeting was held, already in the room was Zuko's new girlfriend's brother and his girlfriend, the water tribe girl who was all over Zuko and visa versa and the Avatar. Her eyes drifted to the Avatar and she felt her heart skip a beat. This was ridiculous! He looked back at her and smiled embarrassed by her constant gaze at him. Mai was repeating a mantra in her head-
He's a kid! He's a kid! He's a kid!
She instead looked over at Zuko making sure he knew she wasn't hurt by the break up, she was going to get even with him and she wasn't not going to show her weakness.
"Are we going to start?" she asked formally ignoring the glares from Katara.
"Miss Bei Fong has not arrived" snapped his girl friend. Mai sneered at her a walked over to the round table and took a seat. The Avatar came and sat next to her.
"Sooooo... how was your morning?"
"Got a hangover"
"Huh what's that?"
See Mai? He doesn't even know what a hangover is! No way could you like him!
"It's when you get a headache after drinking too much"
"Oh...is that my fault?"
"No, someone probably spiked the drinks"
"I'm glad I didn't have some then"
"You drunk that banana and onion juice"
The thought made Mai's stomach turn.
"It's not that bad once you get used to it"
"Thanks but I'm sticking to other drinks"
Aang laughed to Mai surprise.
Did I just tell a joke? Or does this kid have a mental problem?
"How old are you?" Mai asked.
"Me? I'm one hundred and thirteen soon"
"What?"
"My body was preserved in ice for a while"
I kissed an old geezer!?
"Oh"
"How old are you?"
"It's rude to ask a lady her age"
"Sorry"
"I'm turning fifteen in a fortnight"
"Really? Wow!"
Aang gleamed a smile at her and she couldn't resist smiling back.
There was silence between them for a while after that and Aang then made an uncertain question.
"Did you...ummm...like last night?"
What am I going to say? What am I going to say? What am I going to say?
"Yeah...I guess I did...why?"
"Well I was wondering if you wanted to go to the zoo I made at the earth kingdom one day and-"
"Are you asking me out?"
"Well yes...but what's your answer?"
Mai froze.
"I don't know"
"Well do you want to go out with me?"
"yes"
"Well that's settled"
"okay..."
"Good. I'll tell you when okay?"
Then suddenly Aang swooped and planted a kiss on Mai's cheek. Mai thought she missed a few beats of her heart this time.

Before she knew it herself she ran out of the room and back to her house, flung herself on her bed and tried to regain her breath.
Aang asked me out. I accepted. This is so unhealthy for me! Too many emotions today!
Mai heard a knock on the door.
Please don't be him!
"Mai? What's wrong?"
To her great relief it was her mother's voice and she entered the room looking at the Mai sprawled out on her bed.
"Mai what happened?"
"I think I'm going out with the Avatar"
Author's Note:
