i'm fifteen, you jerk! (a:tla, reader insert)

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

"Awh, Aang. That's so sweet." you cooed, watching Katara put on the necklace. "Smoochy! Smoochy! Somebody's in love!" Sokka teased. "Shut up, Sokka. Love is the best." you sighed dreamily, watching your friends interact.

"And how would you know? You've never been in love!" Sokka defended. "I haven't. But as someone who's chance of love was stolen, I can tell you that even watching it is magical. I watched as my brother developed a crush on one of the palace servants. It was adorable, and I've loved love ever since."

"Sokka, you jerk!" Katara stepped into the water with him, slapping the back of his head. "It's fine. I don't really care, anyway. I have kids, and that's where all my love will go. Woah, who's that?" you saw a man being attacked by a platypus bear. When you ran to help him, he only held his hand up.

"It's nice weather today, isn't it?" he was calmly dodging the bear's attacks, and you started to panic. "Aang, go help him!" fuck. I can't do anything now because of Zuko and Azula. Fuck, fuck, fuck. To your surprise, when Appa roared at the bear, it ran away, leaving behind an egg.

"You could've died! What's wrong with you?" Sokka demanded. "But I didn't!" your jaw dropped. "What the fuck? Are you okay?" you gave him a once over, searching for injuries. "You're not injured, but how did you do that?" Sokka grabbed the egg, and the old man handed the four of you an umbrella.

"Aunt Wu told me to give this to any travellers I met along the way." Aang opened the umbrella, and it started to rain. "Oh, please! Anyone could've guessed that! The sky has been gray all day!" The rainfall had made the egg slip from Sokka's grasp and crack on his head, only souring his mood further. "It's going to keep drizzling." as if the universe was taunting him, the rain stopped.

"Come in, come in. Aunt Wu is expecting you." a man motioned for you to come inside. "Thank you." you smiled at him, adjusting your scarf. "Shhh, shhh. It'll be okay." you rocked Zuko, who had started to cry at his sudden movements. "Woah! You have kids!" a girl who looked to be about Aang's age approached you.

"Ah, yes. I do." you sat down, shushing Zuko. "Awh, little guy, are you hungry? Yeah, I'll feed you." you turned around, using your scarf to conceal your breast as you fed your son. "Azula baby, wake up. Come on, it's time to eat." you set Zuko down onto your crossed legs, waking up your daughter. "Good girl. Good girl. Yeah, that's it."

"I guess that's me." Katara said, and you tuned everyone out in favor of feeding Azula. "I think that's enough, my little love. Shh, don't cry. You're a big, strong girl." you bounced her lightly, trying to calm her down. "I'm going to go to the bathroom." Aang excused, leaving. "Okay, okay. Yeah, there you go. Good girl." you cooed as she fell asleep, draped on your shoulder.

You weren't paying attention until Sokka started to protest. "Sokka, shut up. I just got Zuko and Azula to sleep. I won't hesitate to knock you out." you threatened, turning back around. An older woman beckoned Aang into her room. "What do you think his future will be?" you sighed, placing Zuko on your opposite shoulder.

"You actually believe that load of garbage?" you chuckled lightly. "Of course I don't. I just think it's nice to have something to believe in. Call it hope, if you will. A fortune teller predicted the genders of Zuko and Azula, actually." he seemed to believe you, but he was still skeptical about the whole 'predicting the future' business.

"You, with the children. Come in." you smiled at the lady, getting up. You walked into the room, sitting back down. "What do you want to know?" you stroked Zuko's back, the answer coming to you almost immediately.

"Two things. One, If I live to see my children grow up. Two, if I end up going fully blind. Wait, make that three. Will I have to give them away?" she chuckled, taking your hand. "You will live to see your children grow up. From what I see, you will only end up going blind if you continue to damage your eyes. You will also not have to give them away, you will raise them. Oh, what's this?" you closed your eyes, preparing for bad news.
