Zuko's pov:

The first semester of school at Idaho Valley High went by just like the first few weeks. I would spend most my time in class by myself, the way I liked it, and only talked to Katara and Aang during lunch. I know I should have told them that I wasn't the Love Guru they were hoping for, but honestly, I liked how they treated me. Not that I'm some horribly depressed kid who craves any form of human interaction, but everywhere I went in California, I was known as the failure kid of the huge film tycoon.

Today was the Sunday before second semester. It was November, and it had already begun to snow. I was at Aang's house, and apparently Katara thought this was the perfect time for romance, and gave me this lecture about how warming up by the fireplace was a great way to start a relationship, at which point I rather cleverly stated that she should roll around the snow for an hour and then embrace all the romance it brought. She didn't think it was that funny.

"Honestly Zuko, do you pay attention to anything I say? Haven't you ever been in love?"

I sighed, and quickly answered, "No." I figured this would have come up eventually, but it didn't mean I wanted to talked about it. My personal life was something I didn't want to share.

"Wait, what? How is that possible? The love guru is supposed to-"

I was saved from her interrogation when Aang came back in from the kitchen with three hot chocolates in his hands.

"Nothing like warming up at the fire with some coco…" he absentmindedly noted as he passed the mugs out.

Those two kids were made for each other. For someone who knew so much about romance, Katara really was clueless about starting her own.

"Thanks Aang", she shyly answered while turning a little a pink.

"No problem Katara, I think you look really pretty today", he answered while turning an even darker shade of pink. I took this as my cue to leave.

"Well, if there's nothing else that needs to be discussed… I'm just going to go home and pretend I never moved to this messed up town." I put my black hood back on and stood up.

"Actually Zuko, Aang had this really amazing idea about how to get Toph and Sokka together."

" Oh no, it was more of Katara's idea really…"

"Aang, don't be modest, it was totally brilliant!"

"You thought of it too! It was more of a group effort really Zuko…"

"WILL SOMEONE JUST TELL ME?"

Katara stopped ogling Aang to give me a glare. "We should throw a winter themed party. Invite a bunch of people, including Toph and Sokka. Then we can use the snow and fire to get them together!"

"Doesn't snow and fire just make water?" I asked.

Never, ever, contradict an overly happy Idaho girl twice in one day. You will just end up with hot chocolate on your head.
