Okay that's enough. A girl can only take sitting in silence with a boy starting at her for so long, and is only been 3 minutes!
"Okay that's it!" I say fustrated.
"What?" He says confused.
"I can only take so much silence," I say as I turn on the radio and try to find a station.
My songs know what you did in the dark
So light em
Up up up
Light em
Up up up
Light em
Up up up
We're on fire
"You know your very different," Zuko says with a chuckle. I stop singing along.
"What does that mean?" I say.
"I mean from the songs you sang on Saturday I thought you would be more if an Ariana grande fan rather than Fall Out Boy. But considering they are just another pop indie band I get it,"
"One I do like her music I'm just more into bands like Imagine Dragons, Fall Out Boy, and Coldplay. Two Fall Out Boy is amazing!" I say. He's insufferable.
"Yeah sure they are,"
"Fine then what does the All Knowing Zuko like to listen to?"
"Um I like Simple Plan and Panic at the Disco." He says.
"Well you are just as different as me because I thought you were more of a Jason Derulo kind of guy,"
"That's fair. But I do have to ask, why didn't you sing songs like that on Saturday?"
"Because I was playing more of what the club crowd would like and I'm guessing that's the same reason for you too,"
"Your right," He says with a smile, "as always." I giggle. I guess I misjudged him he seems like a really cool guy. Kind of like when I first met him. We talk until we reach my house.
"There it is," I point to my house and he pulls in the drive way.
"I'll walk you to the door," He says as he gets out with me. I walk to the door and look for my key. Wait a second. My house key is with my car keys which means Toph still had them. How am I stopped to get in?
"That thieving little dirty bag," I mutter.
"What?" Zuko says confused.
"Toph she sole my house and car keys today and took my car to spirits knows where."
"Oh," He says. Really Oh is all he can say.
"So what now?" I ask.
"I have an idea. Get in the car."
"Where are we going?" I ask as I open the car door but don't get in.
"Nope no questions just get in," He says with a smirk then seeing me not move he says," or you can stay here and wait until Sokka is done with band practice or Toph decides to come back." That gets me to get in the car. Today just hates me.
"Aren't you supposed to be a band practice?" I ask. While we're riding.
"Yes actually but opportunities like this only come once in a life time. Plus is just practice."
Almost a half an hour later he parks at some beach. When I get out I realize where we are. We walk and sit down closer to the shore line.
"This is where I usually come to clear my head," He says ending the comfortable silence.
"My mom used to take me here all the time when I was a little kid. She used to wake me up in the middle of the night and drive here just so we could see the full moon." I say.
"Funny my mom used to wake me up and drag me here just to watch the sun rise.i really miss her. " He says looking down.
"What happened to her?" I ask. I hope that wasn't too straight forward.
"One night when i was 13 she came in my room and told me she loved me and the next morning she was gone. I asked my father but he didn't even seem to care." He says fighting back tears.
"That's so sad have you heard from her since," I say but the weird thing is I don't pity him I just understand what he's going through.
"Nope she just disappeared." He says. After another silence he talks.
"Where's your mom?" He says trying to lighten the mood but it fails.
"Dead."
"What happened?" He says surprised.
"One day when I was 5 Sokka and my dad were in the backyard fishing in the pond while mom and I were cooking dinner in the kitchen. Then some guy barged in with a gun and threatened to kill me if he didn't get what he wanted. My mom told him his business was with her and told me to go. The guy laughed and told me to go on. So I went out to find my dad. We all rushed inside. Since I was leading the way and running faster I got there first just as the bullet was shot and went through her head. Then Sokka and Dad came in and saw what happened. The guy immediately left and I just cried. It was really all my fault I should've ran quicker or just let him shoot me instead." I say as I now cry into Zuko's chest. He rubs my back and attempts to comfort me.
"No it isn't your fault at all. You did nothing wrong." He says. We sit there like that for a while. Just at peace being around each other. I pull apart and try to distract myself and say,
"Why don't we go swimming?" In a somewhat cheery voice. He looks confused.
"In our clothes?"
"Why not? They'll dry off eventually " I say then pull him up and start to drag him to the ocean.
"The things you get me into," He days right before I pull him in with splash around, play water games, and do swimming traces for a while. When we get tired we go get ice cream and sit on the beach again talking until we dry off.

After I drop her off I head home. When I get there I realize Azula is there also.
"What do you want Azula?" I say with a venomous tone. Once I'm inside.
"Now now Zuko Azula is your si-," Iroh starts.
"Aw come now dear zuzu why can't I just visit my brother and uncle out of the kindness in my heart." She ignores uncle and says with her usual evil grin.
"Because you don't have a heart," I reply irritated.
"Fine. Be like that! I just came by to deliver a message from dad," She says playing with her nails not caring.
"I don't want to hear what that asshole says no leave!" I say penning the door.
"Okay then but just so you know dad wants you back." She says not moving."I don't care just go." She walks out then gets in her car and drives up to the door then rolls down the window and says,
"That's really disappointing, dad isn't going to like that answer also the fact that your hanging out with that wench so much." She says then laughs. I am about to ask her how she knew that but she drives off. My life just got alot more complicated.

After Zuko drove away I knock on my door. Sokka appears and hugs me tightly.
"Where were you? Do you know how worried Suki Toph and I were? What happened?" He asked.
"I was with Zuko."
"Why didn't you call?" He says frustrated.
"Well I thought Toph would tell you since she was behind it all," I say gesturing to Toph who was sitting on the couch with Suki.
"Don't look at me this was a two man job." Tog says pointing to Suki.
"Suki!" Sokka wines.
"Sorry Sokka but you looked so cute when you were worried," Suki says. I want to throw up.
"Anyway guys where is my car?" I ask.
"In the garage. Why?" Sokka says.
"Because we sole it. Anyway Katara how was your date with Zuko?" Toph asks.
"It was NOT a date. And you don't get to know since this is all your fault. " I say walking toward the stairs.
"Aw please! Come on we're sorry. " Suki begs. I continue waking and say,
"Nope," then go to my room up stairs. I throw my self onto my bed. I just can't get Zuko out of my head. First he acts like a jerk and now he is caring and sensitive. My life just got alot more complicated.
Hey guys! Sorry I haven't updated in a while. But I'm not sure if I should keep on going with the story since no one seems to be into it. Please REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW. I still want to know what you think. I can take criticism. Well the 5 th chapter is up.
