I sat on the step of the fire lords summer house in ember island. We have just came home from the play 'the boy in the iceburg' and what a terrible play it was. The only good part was when Zuko sat next to me. But aang had to ruin it at intermission and kiss me. i dont even like him. But he likes me, and if he knew that i liked zuko, what would happen. it was so confusing. 'Does zuko even like me." i caught my tounge when i relized i said that out loud.

"Kutara, you like me?"

i looked behind me to see zuko. "yes. alot actualy."

he sat down next to me."i thout you liked aang." he said looking up at the stars.

"i dont like aang.I may have when we first met. but not now."it felt good telling simeone this.
"zuko, do you like me?" i asked so curiously

"no."he said casualy and looked back down and into my eyes."I love you."he reached over and kissed me. ifelt so happy. it was a strong kiss not a weak kiss like aang gives.

when we came out of the kiss he blushed. "sory, i didnt mean to... i kissed him back before he could finish his sentance.

"it's ok." i said and he smiled.

"come on. Lets go inside."

He was holding my hand, "um, can we keepthis a secret?" i asked nurvously

he let go of my hand "Of course." he said softly and opened the door.
