Day 4: Date (this takes place before my Day 1 and 2 one-shots)


"You know this is a very important date, Katara. Do you really need your hair loopies?" Suki snuck up on me while I was finishing my hair.

"I didn't bug you about your hair when you got married, Suki," I said in defense of my long, brown hair. "Nor am I commenting on the size of your belly. I mean, do you know how hard it is to make someone a maternity sized dress? You are lucky that I go through all this hard work for you. "

Suki looked a little offended, but I said, "I'm just kidding. I would do anything for you to be here today. You are the best maid of honor a girl could have."

There was a knock at the door and Gran-gran came in. "Suki, you need to go get changed. It's about to start soon. I'll stay here and help the bride get ready." I had asked Gran-gran of she could walk me down the aisle, because my dad had to run the Southern Water Tribe. She helped me do the rest of my hair -with hair loopies- and my make-up.

I was stepping into my dress, when I realized Gran-gran wasn't talking. I looked into the mirror that was strategically placed so I could see her. She was crying, trying not to make the tears land on me or my dress. Her eyes went to the mirror and our eyes met there. "Gran-gran, why are you crying?" I asked her. "Isn't it supposed to be me the one who is crying?"

"Well, it just reminded me that your mom would be the one that would help you with you getting ready for your wedding. I did the same thing with you mom, and I know that she is watching down on us right now, and I know that she is happy. Even though your choice of husband is a little different..."

"GRAN-GRAN!"

"I'm just saying! But I think that she would be happy with Zuko."

"I know, but are you?"

Sokka knocked on the door and stuck his head in. "Katara, you look beautiful. But it's about to start, so get the rest of your girlie wedding stuff on and hurry it. Everyone else is in position."

"Thank you Sokka." He left, and Gran-gran put my veil on under my crown. Then, she handed me my bouquet of tiger lilies.

"Tiger lilies, my favorite," she said as I adjusted everything.

"I know, that's why I picked them."

We heard the music start playing, and got into position. Suki and Sokka went first, then Toph and Aang, and last, before me, Mai and Haru. We had a different entrance, so everyone had to look a different direction as the doors opened.

Zuko was standing at the alter, and he looked handsome. I couldn't believe what was going on.

Now, Zuko always gives me a lily on every important date, because he says that I look pretty with them.


AN: I kinda took the idea of the panda lily from a story that I read. I think it's called Panda Lily, SO GO READ IT! See you tomorrow!
