    Bookmarker's Notes

    "How many times had they been here before? How many more times would come to pass before either of them could admit what was happening? Katara knew it, deep down in her heart, that this meant so much more to her than she could ever admit. And Zuko.. He had known the truth of his feelings for her for what felt like forever. In all honesty, he had probably loved her from the moment she'd touched his cheek back in Ba Sing Se, but it had taken him all this time to understand that. Perhaps that was why he'd worked harder than he'd ever worked to ensure she trusted him again, that she liked him again. Perhaps that was why he had worked so hard to become a part of their team, to show her that there was so much more to him than she ever could have imagined"

    "'Katara...' The syllables of her name felt familiar on his tongue and Zuko felt her pull back, staring down at him with those eyes of hers, eyes he could look into forever. 'I love you,' he whispered, unable to stop himself from speaking the truth of his heart"

    "Opening her eyes, she focused her gaze on his face and another smile came to life upon her lips. 'I love you, too.' The thought that had been roaming her mind for weeks, for months, no for years really, finally escaped in the form of words and nothing had ever felt better"

    "Without another word, Zuko slipped his arms around her waist and drew her down onto his pallet beside him, rolling them both so he could cradle her against his chest. And as they lay there, Zuko knew this was infinitely better than what could have happened between them. There was nothing he wanted more than to lay beside her every single night for the rest of their lives. But tomorrow, they would wake and there would be another fight to be fought, another battle to win. Tomorrow there would be more chances at injury and loss. But, he would protect her, that much he was certain of. He would always protect her, no matter the cost"

    In which Zuko has had enough of Katara playing around and decides to take matters into his hands. Turns out, teasing can be a lot of fun when you’re the one doing it.

    Summary

    “Come on, Katara,” Zuko says. His teeth graze her earlobe. He skims his lips along the soft skin behind her ear. “Show me how much you missed me.” 

    Or, Katara comes home from a trip to the South Pole.

    Summary

    The war has finally ended and Katara heads back to the Southern Water Tribe with her brother to start rebuilding. While they may be an ocean apart, Katara and the newly crowned Fire Lord Zuko start exchanging letters as their feelings for each other grow and they wait (not so) patiently to meet again.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "Katara thinks she’ll never get enough of his touch – she thinks that she would spend forever standing on her tiptoes at this dock in a storm, buried in his arms. And he would let her, she knows. Zuko would rest his chin on top of her head and let her hug the daylights out of him for the rest of his life. But this is not their end – not the final destination in their crooked, messy lives. Katara’s heart settles and she lets go of the death grip she has on the heavy cloth at the back of his neck. They have all the time in the world. Katara will wait for him, and he will wait for her; and they will both wait for the world to catch up to them. She will wait patiently until they can have their forever with nothing standing between them – and she will long for him and miss him every step of the way. Katara will love him and she will wait."

    Bookmarker's Notes

    "Zuko was a goner, drowning in the touch of her lips, the slight pressure of her hand on his neck, then his hip. He was in love."
