Katara twitched as she watched Zuko laughing with Mai. She was that close. She was about to ask him out, when Mai came over in her little slutty outfit, and caught him by the mouth. He was hers, damn it. She had worked for him. And then Mai just snagged him. Oh, just watch. Mai will be sorry.


After eight long months of stalking—watching Mai and Zuko, she saw and heard them break up.

"I'm sorry Zuko, but, I don't think this relationship is going anywhere…" Mai was saying. She just didn't realize how amazing he was. She was always so bored with him. Not a very fiery relationship.

"Oh, so, the one you're having with Haru is?" She perked up. That was brand new information. Mai was cheating. Mai rolled her eyes. "Zuko, that was a one - night stand. That is certainly going nowhere." It was Katara's turn to roll her eyes. Yeah, right. Zuko apparently agreed, in a sense.

"Sure, sure. And the next time? And the next? That won't turn into anything, especially since you never even take the time to pay attention to anyone's problems but your own." Oh, I could feel the heat from that burn from my perch. That must sting. Mai narrowed her eyes.

"Maybe I would pay attention if they weren't so whiney. Besides, you never listened to my problems either." I lifted an eyebrow.

"Oh yeah? Maybe you should take your own advice. People might listen to you if you listened more, and complained about everything less." Score: Zuko: 1, Mai: 0. Zuko turned on his heel, and left Mai standing on her porch with her eyes narrowed, and hands on her bare hips. In my head, I fist-punched the air. In reality, I climbed down the tree I was in, and made my way home.


"Hey Zuko."

"Hey Katara."

"You okay? You're just kind of sulking in the corner. You know, more than usual?"

"Har har."

"My girlfriend dumped me."

"Aww. You'll be okay? "

"Yeah. I'll be fine."

"Hey, don't worry. She was a whore anyways."

"I guess…. Ow! Hey! What was that for?!"

"Snap out of it. And I don't think so, I know so. 'I guess', what kind of crap is that? Anyone who treats my friends like that is a whore. End of story."

"Kay'... Um, Katara?"

"Yeah?"

"You can stop hugging me now."

"Oh! Sorry."

"It's fine."

"Are you sure, cause' you know, you're not really happy right now, what with Mai, and I'm just probably making it worse, and maybe we should go do something to cheer you up, like see a movie, get ice cream, or—"

"Katara? You're babbling."

"Am I? Huh, I never realized I did that, it doesn't usually happe—Mmph!"

He kissed her.


She smiled as she walked through the mall, Zuko's arm around her waist, Mai glaring daggers at her across the vast food court where she sat with her friends, Ty Lee and Azula. It wasn't her intention to brag, but God, It just felt so good.
