I've always hated you

The project

"Ok class we're going to be doing a project. It will be in teams of two. Don't get too excited, I will be picking the teams" said the history teacher.
He started naming teams until he got to "Next team, Sokka and Azula"

"Fuck!" They both thought to themselves. How the hell were they supposed to work on a project together? They were just going to fight the whole time and get no work done.

The teacher continued explaining the project and they realized that they'll most probably have to get together in person to finish this.

Sokka went to go sit at Azula's desk and they started working on the project. Of course, they argued over what they were meant to do quite a bit so they didn't get a lot of work done. They'll definitely have to meet up to work on it and advance the project.

"Hey um, tomorrow come over to my house so we can finish this. My parents and brother won't be home that day so it'll be better to work on it then" Azula told Sokka.
"Uh sure, yeah. Just um give me your address and I'll be there after school I guess"
"Ok" she writes down her address on a piece of paper and gives it to him. "Tell your dad to bring you around five, ok?"
"Sure but my dad won't be bringing me, I'll probably have to catch a bus. I don't have my parents drive me everywhere because I'm not spoiled"
"Whatever, shut up. Just be there around 5"
-------------------------
Sokka got off the bus and was walking down the street looking for her house. He noticed how big the houses and this street were. This was definitely a pretty rich neighbourhood.

He reached the end of the street and saw her house, it was the biggest one he's seen so far. "Who even needs a house this big? They're only four people living in there" he thinks to himself as he walks up to her door and knocks and wait for her to answer.

"Finally you're here. Come in so we can finish this as fast as possible" Azula says and she opens the door.

Sokka walks into her absolutely massive house.
"You're house is huge" he tells her
"Hm, I guess so", Azula says as she shrugs, "Just follow me to my room"

They start walking upstairs and go into her room. Her room was also super big. She had a big bed, a lot of room to walk around. She sat in one of the chairs in front of her desk.
"What are you waiting for? Come sit" she tells him
"You're room is like almost bigger than my living room"
"Oh really? Hm, anyways, just come sit so we can work"
He sits down on the edge of her bed "Oh my god your bed is so comfortable!" he lies down on it.
"Hey! Get off my bed!"
"No way, this is way too comfy"
"Get off! We have to work!" She goes over to him and grabs his arm and starts pulling him.
"Nice try, you won't be able to move me"
"Shut up and get off!"
"No thanks, I'm good" he grabs her arm and pulls her onto the bed.
"Hey!" She slaps him on the chest.
"Doesn't hurt, my muscles are too big"
"Pff yeah right"
"They are, that's why all the girls like me"
"Haha yeah right. What girls? Suki? She barely counts as a girl"
"Hey that's mean. And why did you mention Suki? You think she likes me?"
"Well I don't know. I just said that because you kissed her at the party. Do you like her?"
"Uh I don't know... I mean I kissed you and I definitely don't like you"
"Yeah and I don't like you either. That kiss was just part of a stupid game"
"Yeah I didn't enjoy at all"
"Me neither... but hey I bet you enjoyed it though. I'm a very good kisser"
"Hm, I can't agree with you there"
"Liar! You probably loved it, didn't you"
"Not really. Just because you're pretty doesn't mean you're a good kisser"
"Oh you think I'm pretty huh?"
"What?! W-Well I just meant that a lot of guys find you pretty... not me though"
"Mhm, sure... for some reason I don't believe you"
"I don't! Are you pestering me because you find me handsome?" He said, turning the tables on her.
"I absolutely do not!"
"Yeah, you're blushing"
"I'm not!"
"You totally are. Look how flustered I make you" he says and then starts tickling her.
"Hahaha stop! Stop it hahaha!" Azula says while trying to get away from him.
"Wow I didn't know you were ticklish"
"Ahaha shut up! Stop!"
"Ok ok, I'll stop" he laughs and then stops tickling her.
"You're such an asshole!"
"You know I've never heard you laugh before. You look way less mean when you laugh and smile. It makes you seem like a nice person I'm not going to lie"
"Hm, whatever" she just lies down on her back next to him.
"You know I kind of lied... you're not a terrible kisser... and you're also quite pretty"
Azula was confused by how out of the blue this was. "Uh thanks... you weren't a bad kisser either I guess... and from certain angles you're good looking..."
"Thank you"
He turns his head to look at her and she does the same. They're there, lying on her bed, looking at each other in silence. For some reason that he didn't understand, Sokka started leaning in to kiss her. He was shocked when she also started leaning in.
