Chapter 94

A long procession was lead by the bride and groom headed to the outdoor dinning area. The Newlyweds were followed by Aang and Katara, during the ceremony the maidens had been in charge of Aang and Katara's children, with the help of Aunt Suki and Uncle Sokka. As they all walked Gyatso happily sat on his daddy's shoulders while Kya and Sapphire each sat on one of their mommy's hips.

When they got to the reception Haru and Jade started to take their normal seats. Katara stopped them. "No, you two have the center seats tonight, Aang and I will sit where you usually do."

Once everyone was seated, Aang stood up, holding Sapphire, and started his short speech. "I am Happy to have presided over The First Air Nomad Wedding... Traditions say Marriage is an earthly attachment, a weakness, but Lady Katara reminded me that family is a strength. I hope that I may get to marry many more before my time passes.'

"Jade, I am so happy for you. As you worked in my home a friendship grew. One that I hope may last into the next life." Aang then addressed Haru. "I have known you for 9 years, you have fought along side Lady Katara and I as we fought The Fire Nation. You are a very gifted Earthbender, with an eye for detail. I Look forward to your help with both restorations and renovations, not just here but at all the Air Temples.'

"I wish you both, a long happy life together with lots of children." Aang raised his cup to toast the couple.

Katara stood up, Kya on her hip. "It's funny how strong friendships start out, here is this girl, like many others still in the world now, That just didn't like me." Katara laughed. "Why did she not like me? Because The Avatar fell in love the second he opened his eyes. You see, He came out of the bubble still glowing, then he collapsed and I caught him before he hit the hard ice. As soon as he opened his eyes he asked me to go penguin sledding with him, not even a minute after waking up." Everyone laughed. "Around a year ago while I was a little over 6 months pregnant, I was huge, And this sweet girl leading me back to my home stopped and nervously asked to feel my babies, to feel them move and kick... I just smiled and showed them to her. She asked me if we needed anyone else working for us... Well how could I turn down this sweet young woman that was my age... That young woman became a friend then, not to long after, she became my best friend.'

"I taught her to be a Midwife, and brought her with me to Ba Sing Se, for the first round of World Leadership meetings. On our way we stopped in a little mining village to get something to eat, my back was killing me, Seven months pregnant and sitting on Appa's head for hours... Aang and I were approached by a long time friend of ours... We talked for a few minuets then he had to go. He walked through the door not paying much attention to where he was going and ran right into Jade, knocking her to the ground and getting her dress all dirty. The young man apologized, and helped her dust her dress off, before departing he told Jade his name was Haru... And now we are celebrating their love for one another." Katara raised her glass in a toast, then sat back down.

"Love at first sight is an amazing thing, is it not Haru!" Aang said loudly, everyone laughed.

After the food was served and eaten there was a dance. After about half an hour a huge cake was brought out, the Bride and Groom cut the cake and fed each other a small piece.

As they sat at the head of the table many of their friends congratulated them and gave them small gifts. Captain Zane Welcomed Haru into his family, hugged him then told him to take good care of his daughter and to give him lots of grandchildren. Every time someone said anything about having children Jade and Haru both blushed bright red. Haru's parents were so happy their son found his place in the world, and found a wife, they too told the couple to give them lots of grandchildren.

Aang stood up and everyone fell silent again. "Thank you all for sharing this special day with Haru and Jade... It's getting late, I know I'm tired... I think it is time for the couple to retire, Goodnight Haru and Jade." Everyone clapped as the bright red bride and groom left to go the the apartment that was set up for their first night together.

Aang put Gyatso to bed as Katara nursed the twins and put them to bed. Aang was seated on his soft floor pillow meditating when she walked into their bedroom. She put her nightgown on and started to brush her hair. When she seen Aang open his eyes and stand up she said; "You did a beautiful job."

He smiled. "Thank you... it wasn't easy to decide what to say."

"I think you wrote it perfectly... More beautifully than my dad did... Don't tell him I said that though." Katara laughed.

Next morning.

Aang and Katara were having breakfast with their family, each feeding spoonfuls of warm cereal to their daughters as they ate also.

There was an unexpected knock on the front door, it opened and to Aang and Katara's surprise Jade and Haru came walking in "Good Morning" Jade called.

Aang and Katara both came out of the dinning area with confused looks on their faces. "Good Morning... Uuuummmmm... We didn't expect to see you... At All today." Aang told them.

"You said we could still eat with you." Haru answered.

"Oh, Ok, I made hot cereal and toasted bread... Let me toast a few more pieces for you." Katara smiled. She disappeared into the kitchen for a few minuets.

"How are you this morning?" Aang asked them. He didn't want to ask them anything about their first night together, that would be rude.

"I'm so happy." Jade said. "We both are."

"Honestly Aang, I've never been happier." Haru told him.

Katara walked out of the kitchen with a plate of toast. "Where are you going to go for your Honeymoon?"

"We are going to go to Ba Sing Se. My dad is taking us, he wants to take me to go see his 'friend' he left me with." Jade told them.

"Let me send a letter with you, I can get you a guest house in the upper ring." Aang told them.

"My dad will be headed out in a week, he wants to relax here... he hasn't had a vacation in a long time, he also loves The Earth King's apartment." Jade laughed.

"Ok, I'll get that letter written for you. Katara and I are giving you 100 gold piece as your wedding gift." Aang told them.

"Aang's 21 birthday is coming up in just a few days." Katara told Jade and Haru. "I'm glad that you will be here still."

"Wow 21, no offense but you seem older than that." Haru said.

"I am older." Aang laughed. "I'm almost 121."

"I married an old guy." Katara laughed. "98 years older then I am. But I can't help loving him."

"Haru is 3 years older than me." Jade said giving her new husband a smile, when their eyes locked she blushed a bit as she thought about their first night together.

Jade turned her face a bit and Katara saw her red cheeks. "The teapot is empty, Jade would you like to come with me to make more?"

"Oh... uuuummmmm... yeah... ok." Jade stammered a bit.

Jade followed Katara into the kitchen. Katara went about making more tea. "How are you feeling this morning?" Katara casually asked.

"He's so sweet and gentle." Jade said as she turned 3 shades redder and looked at her feet.

The water started to steam and Katara poured the water over the tea leaves in the pot. "Fan the redness away." She sympathetically told the blushing bride.

After about 2 minuets Jade's face had returned to its original pigment. "Ready to join our husbands in the dinning area?" Katara asked.

Katara came walking out of the kitchen, Jade a few steps behind her. "Tea is done." Katara smiled.

"Thank you, My Love." Aang said as she poured tea into his little cup. He kissed her cheek.

"You're welcome, Sweetie." She responded.

"Thank you, Jade." Haru said, it was his turn to blush.

After they finished their breakfast Jade said, "Well... uuummmmm... we are going to... to go back across the way... Thank you for breakfast."

"Ok, bye... have fun." Katara called to them, which just made them blush bright red.

Aang woke up to his 3 children on the bed with him. "Dadada" the twins chanted.

"Morning Daddy!" Gyatso said.

Katara had a tray in her hands. " Good morning Sweetie!"

"Good morning, My Love, my family!" He said happily to them.

"I made your favorite food for breakfast." His beautiful wife said to him. On her tray was a whole egg custard tart, a few forks, and a tea set. "I thought we could share breakfast in bed with you." She sat down in front of him and put the tray on his lap.

"Num num num" Kya and Sapphire said as they were fed bites of the tart.

"I figured we could spend today together... You know, as a family... take today off." Katara told him.

"Well, I need..." He was cut off by his daughters.

"Dadadadada!" They laughed at him.

"Daddy play!" The little Airbender said to him.

"Ok, ok... I can't say no to that." He laughed.

"It's a coo." Katara laughed. "We have been successful little ones! Daddy said he won't work today."

During breakfast-in-bed with daddy there was a knock on the door. Jade and Haru came walking in. "Good morning." Jade called.

"We're in the bedroom, you can come in." Katara called to them.

Jade and Haru came into the bedroom to see the happy family all sitting on the bed eating an egg custard tart. "Good Morning." Jade said.

"There are 3 more tarts on the kitchen counter." Katara said. "Slice up one of them for your breakfast, and take one back with you when you leave... Eggs are full of protein, good fuel for energy."

"Thank you, Katara." Jade said. "We'll be leaving tomorrow, my dad needs to make a drop near Haru's village then has a load set up to deliver near Ba Sing Se. We will take the tram into Ba Sing Se. Oh, Thank you for the letter Aang. My dad is planning to go see that woman as soon as Haru and I are settled into the guest house in the upper ring."

"I'm sorry for what she did to you Jade." Katara told her best friend.

"What she did was wrong and she needs to be held accountable for what she did, but I am very happy with my life." Jade said

Katara walked over to where Jade and Haru were staying. "I just want to wish you safe travels and a wonderful Honeymoon. I also want to give you a gift Jade." Katara hand a wrapped package to Jade.

Jade took the package and opened it. It was the dress Jade had been wearing when Haru had run into her.

Katara smiled. "I have a broken ice bubble, now you have a dress." Then she hugged Jade and said goodnight. "I'll see you in the morning before you head down... Aang said I can use Appa to take you all down to the boat."
