Zuko POV

Me, Katara, Aang and an excited Sokka walk over to the carnival . It was a 15 minute walk but jee was it worth it. We walk into the carnival and the first thing sokka says was unbelievably childish. "Zuko!! LOOK!! There is a giant bunny!!" He points to one of the prizes in the stands a few yards over "Please get it for mee" he practically begs. "Fine, fine" we walk over to the booth to get tickets and the girl in the booth handing them out was checking out sokka so I just grabbed his hand and pulled him away towards the stand with the giant bunny. "Wha~zuko what was that?" He asks confused. "It was nothing" I smile as I peck him on the lips. We get to the stand and it is one of those games where you have to knock the bottles down. I hand him a ticket for 3 balls. I aim, pull back my arm and throw. I miss the first time but I try again. I miss again and I have one more shot. I look down at sokka and at his adorable puppy eyes practically begging me to make this so I pull back and throw it with all my strength. BAM. Knocks all three of the bottles down. Sokka starts jumping up and down cheering for me as the guy running the stand hands me the Huge bunny. "Here you go, one bunny for a cute puppy." He looks at me with complete happiness and I can't help but smile. "Zuko! Sokka! Come ride this haunted tunnel with us!" I look at sokka and his eyes are wide like he just stepped into a trap. "Nonono-" he barley gets to finish before I am already dragging him over to the ride. "Z-zuko I don't want too!!" He whines. "What happened to you being all manly?" He looks at me with a pout and I just kiss him on the forehead. "It'll be fun I promise, I'll keep you safe" he finally agrees as we get on line with katara and Aang. We finally reach the entrance and we sit down in the cart, me and sokka sit in the back behind katara and Aang. The cart starts moving and sokka lookks at me with eyes filled with regret. He stuffs his face into his bunny and mumbles "why did I agree to this.."

Sokka POV

We are not even 10 seconds into the ride and a jump scare pops up. I scream and hide into zuko arm. He wraps his arm around me and holds me close to him. "Why did I do this, why did I do this, why did I do this" i repeat over and over in my mind. I hear the yelling of people ahead of us mixed by ghouls laughing and witches cackling. I hold onto zuko arm and at this point ced my entire body into his lap curled up into a hall burying my face into his chest. He is whispering into me ear "it's alright" and "I'm here don't be scared" like it's supposed to make me feel better. Ok it does but not completely, I'm still scared shitless. The ride finally ends and we get off the ride, my legs still shaking with my face still in zukos chest. "Come on I know what will make you feel better" I lift my head up and shake it, implying 'No'. But that wasn't enough for him because he insists that it will be fun. I give in and let him drag me to where he wants to go. Just a few hours ago I was all confident and making zuko blush, now I'm hurried in his chest and basically acting like a baby because of some ride. "Close your eyes." He says "w-what?" "Close your eyes sokka." I don't trust him "please trust me sokka close your eyes" It's like he read my mind because that's all I needed to hear to close them shut. He pulls be further into the carnival leaving me clueless and I stop. I lift my hand up fro my face to see where we are but he instantly puts it back over. "Not yet, I'll tell you when you can open them" the line moves quickly and he pulls be into a place and sits my down. "Ok open" I open my eyes and let my eyes adjust me look around me. We are in a red box with glass windows and it feels like we're moving. I look outside to see a bunch of people as we are going up. I look at zuko with my eyes beaming. "A Ferris wheel?" He laughs "yeah, I felt bad for bringing you into the haunted tunnel but your reaction was just so cute" I look down and smile to hide my blush but this only encourages him to move closer nest to me. He grabs my chin and lifts my head up and connect our lips. We stay like that for 1 minute before pulling away for breath. He snuggles next to me and brushes my hair back, out of its usually pony tail. "I like your hair like this, you should let it down more often."

Zuko POV

I look at him, admiring everything about him. How his bright blue eyes shine in the faint moonlight, how his hair falls perfectly besides either side of his face and how his smile is just so heart warming and the blush on his face makes him look 100x more adorable. "Z-zuko?" He asks. "Yeah? What's up" "I know..we have only been together for like a day..but..I think...I think I love you" He looks away instantly and squints his eyes so tight it looks like he may never open them again. I see tears falling from his eyes, giving off the impression he feels like he said something wrong. I up his face, wiping away the tear with my thumb and look him in the eyes. "I love you too" His eyes retreat back to normal and his tears dry up as he looks at me with the most passionate and softest look on his face. He rams into me and hugs me, tight. "Thank you..for everything zuko" "of course, it's my pleasure" I say as I hug him back and we both cuddle together with him in our lap, looking outside at the full moon in the bright night sky as we reach the top of the Ferris wheel, and it stops.
