"Urgh! I cannot believe where you are right fricking now! How could you be here sleeping on a bench while people are looking and whispering about you?!" Katara shouted with anger.
She looked at Norrak, snoring on an ice bench he created last night, and she clenched her fist. Norrak opened his eyes, and upon seeing Katara above his head, he smiled before remembering what had happened.
The people walking in the morning towards their work or towards anything looked at the two. They chuckled before paying them no more attention. Norrak sat upright, a gourd in his hand.
Last night, Norrak decided to buy himself a gourd, and then he poured a lot of the alcohol he had drunk in the bar until the gourd was filled with the drink.
Swish!
Norrak shook the gourd, and the liquid inside it slushed around as it sounded half-filled. Katr looked at the gourd in confusion before snatching it from Norrak's hand.
She took the cap off, and she took a drink from the water. Instantly, her eyes widened, before she threw the gourd towards the ground. Norrak gasped before catching it.
"Hey! What are you doing to my gourd? Do you know how good this stuff tastes?" Norrak said as he clutched the gour to his chest. Katara growled, her teeth grinding against each other.
"This is unbelievable! Come with me right now, or I will slap you into the next moon!" Norrak was pulled up by Katara, who started walking back towards their hotel.
Katara's eyes trembled along the way, her grip around Norrak's wrist tightening until it was almost strong enough to crush rocks. Norrak sighed, placing the gourd on his waist.
Katara reached her room and entered it with Norrak thrown onto the couch. Norrak chuckled, and Katara closed the door behind them, crossing her arms as she stared at him.
"Well?" Katara asked expectantly, and Norrak sighed as he looked around with a troubled expression. His hands lifted, but then fell onto his lap as he looked at her.
"I got nothing," Norrak said with a given up face, and Katara sighed.
"About yesterday, when you admitted to liking multiple girls!... I had given it some thought, and I realised something," Katara said, moving to sit down next to Norrak.
She looked down at the ground, a deep breath coming out of her as the thought of what she would say next weighed down on her mind. Norrak lifted a hand, about to comfort her, but then stopped.
'I don't have the right to comfort her, not after what I said to her yesterday. Besides, would she want to be comforted by a scummy bastard like me?' Norrak thought, looking at the floor with a heavy expression.
"Sigh... I still don't know if I should say this, and if I should be doing this, but... I would rather share you than lose you forever..." Katara said, clenching her fists unwillingly.
"... Suddenly, not seeing you or a day opened up in my mind, and I realised that I am trapped. Without you, I can't go back to living like nothing happened," Katara chuckled, rubbing her forehead.
"As pathetic as that sounds, I don't think I can walk away, leave you or not think about you... I am not the same without you," Norrak listened to Katara, and he looked at her side profile.
She clenched her teeth hard, her chin popping out while tears started streaming down her cheeks. She took a deep breath before turning to look at him as well.
"So I decided to let you do as you want, but I will be by your side as the first. I will tolerate your... side pieces, as long as I remain the main, and the most cared for piece," Katara said, moving closer to Norrak.
"Katara, I don't know what to say to that. I mean, if this will cause you pain, then I would rather not do it," Norrak struggled to say, when he was interrupted by a kiss.
Norrak relaxed, his hands wrapping around Katara's waist. The familiar feel under his palm caused a jolt to shoot through his body, and his heart started beating faster.
"It's not that... When you were flirting with that Ty Lee girl, I thought your love for me was starting to fade, and that you started to love someone else. It's why I was so angry at the time," Katara said, pulling back from Norrak's lips.
"Your love for me never began to fade, I know it. I know it, and I was just jealous because you started paying attention to another woman. Though I was right to be jealous," Katara said, her chin resting on his shoulder.
"Yes, you were completely right to be jealous. If I were in your situation, I think I would have done something much worse, much, much worse," Norrak said, his teeth clenching in anger at the mere thought.
It was very hypocritical and weird of him to say this. But it's just what he thinks is the fact. If Katara did something like him, then he would probably resort to violence instantly.
"Well, what do you say we lock lips and make love while we forget what happened during the past day," Katara said, smiling as she took in Norrak's scent.
'Hmph! You are lucky you are stronger than me. Or those women would be scattered in the air in millions of frozen pieces as of now. While you are frozen in this room,' Katara thought with a cold look as she hid her face on Norrak's shoulder.
Boom!
As Katara thought this, Norrak looked up at the door to their room, which was kicked open into shards. Azula walked in with her hands behind her back, Mai and Ty Lee following from behind her.
Ty Lee looked at Norrak and Katara hugging it out, and she clicked her tongue in annoyance at the sight of Katara being so close to her man. Who does she think she is?
'First, she slaps him, and then leaves him alone for a whole day, only to come back and gain his forgiveness? Why would he go back to her? I am better in every way!' Ty Lee thought, her soft eyes turning harder and colder.
"Well, well, well. If it's not the avatar and the little lustful pervert~ Looks like you two got back together before I could arrive," Azula chuckled, hiding the anger behind her golden pupils as she brought her finger to her chin in a thinking pose.
Norrak sighed in disappointment as he stood up. He rubbed the back of his head before walking over to Azula, stopping an inch from her face. He looked into her eyes, and his Six Eyes started to glow, a pressure filling the air.
"What makes you so confident to stand before me? You think that after a week or two, you can fight me now?" Norrak asked, his lips curling up in mock amusement.
"Fight you? What makes you think I would come fight you with such stupid intent?" Azula laughed, her sexy voice filling the room as she circled Norrak.
"Any minute now~," Azula muttered, and Norrak looked at her with confusion.
"What are you- Urgh!" Both Norrak and Katara stumbled, kneeling on the ground as the sky outside suddenly went dark. The sun vanished, and a blood moon hung in the sky.
"I-Impossible..." Norrak muttered, feeling his connection to the water vanish.

Yes, Azula colluded with Zhao to kill the moon spirit that allowed Norrak to waterbend. This way, Norrak will survive, and she will gain enough power to handle him.
Leave a power stone!
