(A/N Well the vote is obvious that (Y/N) should go with Zuko)

(Y/N) POV

We rode the whole night through with the ostrich horse. The next morning, we arrived at another village begging from some coins. Dad held the hat with the money we already received. A villager walked past us.

"Spare coins for weary travelers?", Dad asked him

"Spare coins for weary travelers?", Dad asked him.
The villager threw a coin in the hat.
"This is humiliating. We're royalty. These people should be giving us whatever we want.", Zuko complained.
"They will if you ask nicely.", Dad clarified.

I have an idea!

"Zuko, hug me from behind!", I ordered.
"Why?"
"Just do it!"
He hugged me from behind. I then placed his hands on my belly.
"Rub my belly!"
"What are you doing?"
"Do it! You will see."
He started rubbing my belly when a young woman walked past us.
"Spare change for a hungry old man?", Dad pleaded holding out the hat to her.
"Aw, here you go.", she threw a coin into the hat.
"The coin is appreciated but not as much as your smile.", he flirted.
She giggled then looked at me how Zuko was rubbing my belly. She gasped.
"Here, a few more coins for your pregnant daughter.", she threw three more coins into the hat.
"Thank you very much.", I thanked her.
"You're welcome. Good luck.", she said walking away.

I can't believe that worked!

Suddenly a man stopped in front of us.
"How about some entertainment in exchange for a gold piece?", he asked.
"We're not performers.", Zuko said still hugging me.
"Not professional, anyway.", Dad clarified.
"I asked the girl.", he said looking at me with lust.

What an asshole!!

I got scared.
"She will not perform.", Zuko declared angry and hugged me tighter.
"I will.", Dad said.
He sat down the hat, stood up and began to sing.

It's a long, long way to Ba Sing Se,
but the girls in the city, they look so pretty.

"Come on, we're talking a gold piece here. Let's see some action.", the man took out his dual swords, "Dance.", he ordered.
He started swinging them at Dad's feet to make him dance while he continued singing.

And they kiss so sweet that you really have to meet
The girls from Ba Sing Se.

The man laughed from the performance.
"Nothing like a fat man dancing for his dinner. Here you go. It's shame that the girl didn't perform. She would make a good entertainment."
He walked away.

Zuko's POV

"Such a kind man.", Uncle said.
"Kind man ... more like a pervert.", (Y/N) annoyingly clarified.
I continued watching the man how he put his dual swords back into the holster.

I have to get these!

"Um ... Zuko. You can let me go now.", (Y/N) said.
But I still held her.
"What if I don't want to? Your idea to make the people think you're pregnant is actually a good idea to get more money.", I smirked.
