After realizing the words came out with me having any control over the sentence, Katara looked frozen for a couple of seconds after hearing me say those three words that changed our friendship.
I love you were simple words that anyone could say but they those three words still have meaning and I do love Katara, more than anything I don't want to lose her.
Remembering how happy I was when she stayed in the Fire Nation with me, how she teased me with a single kiss to cheek. But these feelings I feel for Katara, I never felt though these feelings with Mai.
And I felt a kiss to my cheek, from the same woman who I confessed to, the same woman who means the world to me and never in a million years want her to leave me.
Looking at the woman of my dreams, I saw that she was blushing, and those red cheeks of blushing make her even cuter. I grabbed her cheeks and made her looked into my eyes as I look hers, looking at the beautiful creature before me, realizing we have shared no words. But words are not needed for this moment, just each other's comfort.
