Chapter 2: Passion

A/N: Major Fluff! It will get extremely dark later on, but for now all around fluffiness.

The next morning, Azula awoke early. She felt a pair of arms wrapped around her midsection. Azula turned to her left and saw the sleeping form of Mai.

Azula kissed her lover's lips gently, earning a moan from the sleeping knife mistress. Mai opened her eyes and returned the kiss with passion.

"Morning, love. Sleep well?" Mai asked. Azula smiled back at her lovingly.

"Like a baby. You up for breakfast?" she replied. Mai sat up in bed and wrapped her arms around her girlfriend's shoulders and kissed her neck. Azula moaned & gasped.

"I'll take that as a yes." Azula said. With that, the girls got out of bed and got dressed.

Azula & Mai finally arrived in the dining room. Zuko was already there, along with Toph, Aang & Sokka.

"Greetings, girls." Zuko said.

"Hello!" said Aang.

"Hi.." said Sokka.

"Sup, Sunshine and Gloomy?" Toph quipped.

Azula & Mai were too embarrassed to say anything, so they just nodded their heads. "What the hell..." Mai thought.

She buried her face into her girlfriend's shoulder, Azula pulled her onto her lap and stroked her hair.

Toph spoke first. "So, Sparky tells me you two are together?" she asked.

Azula nodded in agreement, never ceasing her stroking of Mai's raven hair. "Yes, that is correct. We've been together since yesterday."

Toph smiled & chuckled. "Well, Sunshine. I'm happy for you two! You got my support all the way." she said truthfully.

Zuko took the time to offer his praise. "I think the relationship between you & Mai is a beautiful thing. Don't let anything come between you two." he said grandly.

Sokka chimed in with: "When's the wedding? Have either of you popped the question yet?"

Mai was annoyed at Sokka's stupidity. "Shut the fuck up, you annoying piece of moose-lion shit!"

Aang elbowed him in the ribs. "Sokka! They just got together yesterday!" he said crossly.

Sokka felt silly. "Well, excuuuuuuse me!" he said, annoyed.

Zuko broke up the argument before it could get out of hand and everyone sat down to a nice breakfast.

"Let me just say one more time, congratulations you two!" Zuko said.

"Hear hear!" Aang put in.

"Yeah congrats, you two lovebirds!" Toph exclaimed.

Sokka was in a world of his own. "I think two girls together is hot..."

(That night)

Azula & Mai had just returned home from a party held in Zuko's honor. The girls headed for their bedroom tired from dancing with each other. The girls took off their clothes and crawled into bed. Mai wrapped her arms around Azula's waist and placed her head between her girlfriend's breasts.

"Mai? Can I ask you something?" Azula asked, nervously.

Mai flashed Azula a rare smile. "Sure, baby. Anything" she replied.

Azula carefully choose her next words. "If I asked you, would you marry me?" she asked.

Mai's smile grew wider. "Of course, Azula. You know I would." she replied.

Azula squealed with joy and drew Mai into a passionate kiss, which Mai returned enthusiastically.

Then Azula broke the kiss and laid back on the bed. Mai kissed Azula deeply and longingly. "I love you so much, Azula." she said sweetly.

Azula smiled at her. "I love you, too. Mai." she replied. The girls shared one final kiss and then they went happily to sleep.

A/N: I know you were expecting it, but not in this chapter. I'm gonna let it build up for a few chapters before Azula pops the question. C ya!
