Ok as I said in the beginning of chapter 3 this is a romantic lemon not a lustful one I will not have pity, hardcore or completely random sex in it just because somebody wants it in there. Also I would like to thank all the people who wrote a review, have Author/story alerts and everyone else who read my now on with the story!
As the early morning light shinned through the window Katara woke up realizing that neither she nor Aang had moved since last night. Katara began to quietly crawl out of bed trying not to disturb her lover.
I hope you slept well Aang I don't think we can do that again for some time. Katara thought as she stared at the slumbering Avatar. Katara turned from Aang to go into the bathroom for a quick shower, as she did he woke up. Aang watched as Katara left to the bathroom and thought to himself.
That was the best night of my life. Next time we do that I'm going to make it special for her. Just as Aang was in a peaceful thought he heard Katara call to him from the bathroom.
"Aang are you awake?"
"Yeah I'm up."
"How about we go and get some breakfast in a little bit just the two of us?"
"That sounds great."
"Maybe you might want to go take a quick shower?"
"I'm already on it." Aang said as he already had half of his clothes on. "I will come back to get you in about twenty minutes OK?"
"Alright then love you."
"Love you too." Right as Aang left through the front door he bumped into Sokka on his way out. Sokka looked at Aang with a very curious look on his face.
"Aang? Why are you in Kataras room?"Aang blushed and looked for a good reason to be in her room that wasn't the truth.
"What? Can't a guy just stop by his girlfriend's room and say good morning? Geez Sokka you really got to lighten up a bit you know. Oh well I'll let it slid this time Sokka but I'm watching you." Aang said as he pointed at his eyes and then at Sokkas before entering his room adjacent to Kataras. With Sokka completely dumbfounded at what just happened he shrugged it off and continued downstairs.
Phew that was to close. Aang began to prepare himself for his and Kataras breakfast date. Twenty minutes past by and he went back to Kataras room and knocked on the wooden door.
"Come in."
"Hi Katara are you all ready?"
"Oh sorry Aang what did you say?" Katara's mind was clearly on something else at the time and Aang saw this.
"Katara are you OK?"
"Yeah I've just been wondering if anyone heard us last night…or felt us."
"Ha-ha you mean toph don't you?"
Katara looked at him with an irritated look on her face which made Aang stop laughing.
"Sorry Katara but look under you. It's all wood Toph can't see anything up here." Katara face glowed bright pink that Aang could notice even with her dark skin.
"Oh. I guess I forgot about that, but that doesn't mean you had to laugh at me."
"Oh come on Katara laugh a little it was funny." Katara thought about it and realized that it was a pretty silly thing to worry about. She smiled and chuckled a little.
"There we go that's what I'm talking about. OK now let's go get something to eat." As the couple left the room and headed downstairs they saw that the tea shop was packed with customers looking for some morning tea. They spotted Iroh and called out to him.
"Hey Iroh a little busy today!" Aang yelled so he could hear him over the customer's conversations.
"Can't talk serving tea!" Iroh yelled back to them.
"That's fine can you tell everyone else that were going to go and get breakfast?"
"Got it going for breakfast." As the couple left the tea shop they wondered where they should go to eat. The two decided on just walking around until they found a quiet restaurant. They stopped in front of a restaurant called "The Prancing Pony." They got there meal and enjoyed the small talk between each other as they ate. Especially when Aang said that he ran into Sokka as he left Kataras room.
"You said what?" Katara said trying to hold back laughing to loud.
"Yeah I basically told him that he was over reacting again and said that I would be watching him then he just stood there looking all Sokka confused." Aang said as he got up and walked backwards replaying what he did earlier today. Katara couldn't hold in her laughter anymore. It was one thing at what Aang said but for him to then go and add motions to his story made her crack up. Aang sat back down and joined in on the laughter. After they finished their meal they decided to walk around Ba Sing Se for an hour or so. As the couple walked hand in hand they started to notice more and more of the people whispering and pointing.
"Aang, why are the all whispering and pointing at us?"
"Don't worry Katara they just didn't expect to see the Avatar with such a beautiful girlfriend." Aang said as he turned to look at Katara. Her eyes said that she was caught off guard by this response but also a little embarrassed. She blushed lightly and smiled at Aang.
Oh yeah! Score one for Aang! Now, I just have to NOT say anything stupid. Aang felt pretty proud for his comment. In return Katara did something Aang didn't expect.
"Aww you're so sweet!" Katara exclaimed as she placed a gentle kiss on Aang's cheek. As Aang wasn't even ready for it he tried to play it cool although his surprised face said otherwise.
I see the game you're playing Aang. I can play just as hard as you. After Kataras thought she realized that after she kissed him the voices grew from a whisper to quiet talking. Katara could only make out a few things that the people said.
"She kissed him!"
"They make such a cute couple."
"Who wants some meat? Buy two hog monkey thighs I'll throw in a carrot for free!"
"Aang can we head back to Iroh's tea shop now? These people are wierding me out with all their staring."
"OK Katara I'm starting to feel the same way." The couple walked down the next street, turning them around, and stared heading back to the Jasmine Dragon. As the Jasmine Dragon came into view they saw Sokka standing outside waiting for something.
"Hey Sokka what are you doing out here?"
"I'm waiting for Hawky."
"The messenger hawk you bought in the fire nation?"
"Yep the very same, I sent a message a few days ago to Dad asking if he can come visit us." Kataras face lit up like Aang's tattoos in the avatar state. "You mean dads going to come here?"
"I don't know yet but Hawky will be back any minute now, when he gets here I will find you and tell you if dads going to make it. OK?" Katara nodded and ran inside and up to her room basically dragging Aang with her.
"I can't believe my dad's going to be here! I know I've gotten to see him a lot more since the wars over but I feel like I have to make up for lost time." Katara said in an excited state that made Aang look at her weird. "What?" She commented.
"It's just I've never seen you this happy before. We've all seen you as just happy but right now you're like a completely different person. Don't get me wrong though I love to see you happy.
"I know I'm excited and you should be too because now we get to tell my dad that were together." Katara said waiting anxiously for a response from Aang.
"Oh so that's why you're so excited." Aang said as he finally understood.
"What's wrong you're not excited?"
"I am it's just, what if he can't make it." Once Katara heard this her face of pure happiness turned into despair. The second Aang saw this he face palmed himself and went to turn around what he had just said to destroy Kataras happiness.
"Of course the war is over now so I don't see any reason why he shouldn't make it. I'm sure he's already on his way as a matter of fact." Aang said hoping this was enough to make Katara happy again. She turned to him and put on a small smile that made Aang smile back. Katara went over to Aang and gave him a hug.
"I appreciate you trying to make me feel better but you wouldn't have to if you just said "Yes Katara I am very happy just like you." Katara said mocking Aang's voice, this caused Aang to laugh.
"Ha-ha OK Katara from now on I will always say exactly what you want me to say." Aang responded with a sarcastic voice.
"That's right and don't you forget it." The couple stopped hugging and gave each other a look that they both new. Right as they moved in for a long, deep and passionate kiss Sokka broke in through Kataras door.
"Katara I just got the…what were you two doing?"
"Well Sokka we were just about to make out until you ruined the moment." Katara responded bluntly knowing it would irritate Sokka.
"Well then I came at the perfect time."
"Sokka what were you saying after you basically destroyed Kataras door." Aang asked.
"What I did not." Sokka turned around to see that the door was only holding on by the bottom hinges and that the lock, which was originally attached to the door, was now on the ground in pieces. "HA I guess I don't know my own strength." Sokka said as he began flexing his arm and poking his bicep.
"SOKKA! What did the note say?" Katara nearly screamed at him. Sokka with a surprised face stopped poking his bicep, pulled out the letter and began reading.
"Dear Sokka, I got your messenger hawk asking if I can come up to Ba Sing Se. As much as I would love to see you right now I can't. We are all very busy rebuilding the South Pole to its former glory." Sokka paused and looked up at Katara who looked as though she was going to lose it.
"Hold on It keeps going." Sokka said as he continued reading.
"However I can make it up there in about a month when our village is completed. That still doesn't mean you can't come down here though. I'm sure everyone would be happy to see you again. I wait for your reply and tell your sister that I'm sorry and I love her very much. Love dad. PS did you ever think of naming your Hawk? I was thinking of something like Hawky."
"That's where it ends. So what do you say Katara should we begin our journey to the South Pole?" Sokka asked Katara who had several different feelings right now. She looked up to Sokka and said-
Sorry I just thought I would throw in yet another cliff hanger. Also this is my longest story yet 2000+ characters. I feel proud even though it's not that long compared to other stories I've read. I would also like to clear a few things up. First I didn't like the fact that in most stories I read Toph knew what they did that night so I changed it up a bit. Second my simile up above comparing Kataras face with Aang's tattoos, I had no idea what actually lit up brightly in the world of Avatar since it's a safe bet they don't have Christmas trees. Finally I made a reference to the prancing pony, so the first five people that tell me what it's from get a reward.
