A/N: Hey guys! Sorry it's been awhile since I updated anything. I'm trying to get some Zutara Week stuff done so I can just upload it all on Sunday before I leave. Anyway, this drabble takes place right after the 'Ember Island Players" episode. Enjoy!
Katara sat on the steps that lead to the courtyard of Zuko's beach house, the wind blowing her hair behind her and the moon shining brightly in the night sky. The gaang had just gotten back from watching the play about their lives and Katara could feel herself grin as she remembered how it went.
"So, this play writer has it in his mind that we're together." Katara turned to see Zuko leaning on the pillar above the stares. He smirked when he noticed Katara's cheeks get red.
"Well they got their sources wrong," she replied. He chuckled a little and moved to sit down next to the waterbender.
"If you say so," he said sarcastically. When she gave him a look, he turned his gaze towards the moon.
"I do say so. I mean that whole play was wrong. I'm not a cry baby." Zuko snorted and laughed out loud, but immediately stopped when he received one of her death glares.
"I'm not!" she reassured and he put his hands up and smiled warmly.
"Okay, okay. I believe you," he said. "Don't worry, though. There was a lot I didn't like about it either," he paused and looked back up at the rising moon.
"But?" Katara said after a moment.
"But the play writer read in between the lines. He saw a lot of stuff maybe we never saw ourselves." Zuko shifted his gaze back towards Katara who was still looking at the night sky.
"Maybe you're right," she whispered. She turned her head towards him and met his eyes. He smiled slightly and scooted closer to her.
"So, he was right about there being something between us?" he said softly leaning towards her. She leaned in a bit and grinned.
"No. He was right when he made your character stiff and humorless." With that, she stood up and walked up the steps. Zuko sat stunned as he watched her leave. "Goodnight, Your Stiffness," she shouted over her shoulder humorously as she slipped inside.
Zuko propped his head in his hands and stared at the ground. "Stupid play," he grumbled.
A/N: Awww poor Zuko. Tries to bust a move and is denied. Lol :) I love the moments when everyone in the show thinks they're together and they blush and what not. It's so cute! It made me sad when I noticed only one Zuko/Katara moment in the movie..sigh...anyway I hope you liked! Please give me ideas! :D
