The last few chapters have been…weird. My mind comes up with strange ideas.
I stopped at the gate. A guard looked at me and opened the gate. "She's back!" He yelled to another guard. I rode Nara in and put her with Appa. Appa licked me.
"Hey Boy." I rubbed his head. Aang was walked out from the entrance of the palace and was about to walk towards Appa. He saw me and rushed over. He pulled me into a hug.
"Why would you leave like that? You scared us all! What did you have to be sorry for?" He pulled back to look at me.
"I'm sorry for leaving. I'm sorry for dating Zuko and not telling you." I lost it and started crying. "Oh, Lulu. I'm not mad." I took a deep breath.
"T-that's not why I'm crying. I just can't handle this." I wiped the tears from my eyes.
"Everything. Being an Avatar. There is so much to handle." He sat down and pulled me with him.
"What happened while you were gone?" He asked.
"A lot of things." I tried to sit up but he pulled me back down.
"What kind of things?" I put my head in my hands.
"I saw Zack again, and I blew everything. He saw me Waterbend, now he could know everything. And something else happened and one of your past lives said you would both die if I never came back." I started crying again.
"Both?" He asked.
"You and Zuko. I can't let that happen. How am I supposed to save you both when I can't do anything right?" He pulled my hands away from my face.
"You do a lot of things right. You mastered Water and Air. You even made it into the spirit world."
"The what?"
"It's a long story. But I am here to help, everyone is. You aren't in it alone." I stopped crying and wiped my face. "But you need to tell Zuko about all this. It involves him too." I shook my head.
"I can save Zuko without talking to him." He sighed.
"Lulu. I think you need to talk to him. He won't talk to any of us since you left." I frowned.
"Fine. Tell everyone else I am back."

I hesitated knocking on Zuko's door. I put my hand up and brought it down again. Before I could stop myself I closed my eyes and knocked.
"I'm busy!" He yelled loudly.
"It's me." I said really quiet and hoped he didn't hear. The door flung open. He looked like he hadn't slept and his hair was all messed up. But his appearance didn't make me any less mad or upset at him. "I'm just going to talk about what happened. Then you can go back to Mai."
"I didn't-" I cut him off.
"I don't care. Aang told me to come here and talk to you, so I am." He sighed and looked down.
She says the same thing she said to Aang and he just listens.
"You came back to save me?"
"And Aang." I said correcting him.
"But me too."
"Fine!" I yelled. "Yes! Okay, I came back to save you too. Because for some reason I still love you!" I had admitted my feelings and didn't even realize it. I stood up and walked out. He came with me and I turned to look at him.
"What?" He put his arms on either side of me and I backed up into the wall.
"You said love. Did you mean it?" Did I really say that? I thought.
"It doesn't matter."
"It matters to me." He met my eyes.
"Even if I did mean it you don't mean it back." I sniffed.
"How do you know? You assume too many things. Ho-"
"Oh, I'm sorry for assuming you don't like me when I find you making out with another girl!" I bit my lip.
"I didn't make out her! She kissed me, I kicked her out as soon as you left." I shook my head.
"How can I trust you again?" He sighed.
"Please." He leaned down and kissed me. Caught up in the moment I kissed him back, I ran my fingers through his hair. "I love you." He whispered.
"If I do this and you hurt me again…" He kissed me again.
"That won't happen."
