Y/n pov:

I slowly woke up and my body was killing me what on earth happened after the wave hit me!? I slowly sat up to ya know take in my surroundings only to hear a familiar doctor telling me:

"Lay back down y/n!" Rina told me sternly.

"Rina?" I questioned. I was confused. Wasn't I with Aang? Why is Rina here? Then I felt the ship rock and I realized I was back on Zuko's ship.

"Y/n you need rest you almost died!" Rina exclaimed.

"I'll be fine, but how'd I get here?" I questioned. It was normal for me to brush off pain. Then I finally heard yelling from outside I didn't know how long there was yelling. But I could tell it was Zuko.

"RINA LET ME IN!! LET ME SEE Y/N!!" I heard Zuko yell. Rina was irritated. She went to the door and unlocked it.

"Be quiet please she's still resting-" Rina tried to explain. Zuko rushed past her and straight to me.

"Y/n did they hurt you!? Do you need anything!? Are you-" Zuko started frantically asking questions.

"Zuko I'm fine I just-" I paused realizing I almost died. "I just got hit with a huge wave" I said.

"Y/n your not fine you've been passed out for three days!" Zuko told me.

"Three days!?" I exclaimed.

"Prince Zuko you're going to give her a panic attack!" Rina tried to reason with him.

"Zuko I'll be fine" I said sincerely. Zuko seemed to start calming down. Rina sighed of relief.

"Rina can you give us a moment?" Zuko requested.

"But-" Rina tried to say but Zuko shot her a look. The now startled Rina left.

"Zuko I'll be fine!" I tried to convince him.

"Y/n! Stop acting so tough!" Zuko started tearing up. "You scared me. I barely saw you in the water... I barely saved you..." Zuko told me. I realized he was the splash I heard before getting knocked out.

"You're the one who saved me?" I questioned. He really cares about me. I think I understand now.

"I'll always save you. No matter how far you are I'll always find a way to save you." Zuko promised. I could feel my heart flutter. I reached out to hold his hand.
He looked at me surprised.

"I think I understand now." I said.

"Understand what?" Zuko asked

I didn't't reply in words instead I leaned up to him. And kissed him. Zuko was surprised to say the least. Yet he still kissed back. I could feel his arms wrapping around me in a warm embrace.

When we eventually pulled away I looked at him, and I saw not my enemy but someone I love dearly.

"Y/n I love you. I don't want us to be apart." Zuko told me, I could see it in his eyes. He meant every word.

"I love you too Zuko!" I confirmed. "I always will" I told him. I didn't know where these words came from but they were the most truthful words I've ever said.

I love Zuko.
