Dear Mai,

Looks like I'm writing another letter instead of just talking to you. But don't worry, I'm not leaving again. I've always had a hard time telling people about my feelings. That's why I wrote that other letter in the first place. And why I'm writing you one now.

Mai, I need you. I won't be able to do this without you. I'm sorry for leaving you so many times, but I promise I won't do it again. Can you forgive me?

-Zuko


Dear Zuko,

Looks like I'm turning into you now. What a horror. Anyway I forgive you. And I don't hate you anymore. Maybe we can be friends again.

-Mai


Dear Mai,

Just friends?

-Zuko

P.S.- Thank you.


Dear Zuko,

We'll see. I suppose we could try being more than friends.

-Mai

P.S.- You're welcome.


Dear Mai,

I've really enjoyed the last few weeks with you. It's been nice to get away from all the work and just have fun and been a teenager for once. I hope you enjoyed it, too. Are we more then friends now?

-Zuko


Dear Zuko,

This will be the last letter until I come back from visiting my parents. After sending letters to each other while we live in the same city, I wouldn't be able to bring myself to send you one from another country. Strange, isn't it?

Anyway, I had fun too. I guess we're more than friends now.

-Mai


Dear Mai,

I'm so glad you're back! Will you marry me?

Love, Zuko


Dear Zuko,

If I could express rolling my eyes through a letter, I would. Honestly, what kind of man proposes through a LETTER? You are so strange. I guess that's partly why I like you, though. So, yeah, I guess I'll marry you.

Love, Mai


Dear Mai,

Can you still write me a letter even if we live in the same room?

I'm so glad I have you with me. I think I can finally talk about my feelings, rather than writing them down. Thank you for that.

Love, Zuko


Dear Zuko,

You're right next to me most of the day, so, no, I'm not going to write you letters anymore. I'm glad we can finally talk about things, too. So you're welcome. See you soon.

Love, Mai
