[Azula POV]

Maybe time stopped when his lips met mine, but the flutter inside of me only intensified. my heart pounded inside my chest as my knees got weaker, I was feeling weak and for some reason I was okay with it. I could only focus on how soft Akira felt against my mouth, how aggressive and delicate his touch was, how addictively he invaded all my senses.

A part of me was afraid, afraid this was a dream, a part of me wasn't clear if I had dreamed this moment to life, like many times before with different things, but another part of me grounded me to reality, showing me this was as real as anything else.

Behind this kiss there was raw and pure emotion, showing even here a battle for control, in the way his fingers held my head in place, as I did the same, in the way Akira kept his eyes half open, sneaking a peek every time he came back for air, just to make sure that like me, this wasn't a product of his imagination.

I still wasn't sure if nature rooted for this moment or if my mind tricked me into this wonderful moment, but every breath I took I smelled the now sweet aroma of a river and for the first time since I have known myself, I didn't feel the need to win. If anything, the warm feeling of his breath on my face, although destabilizing, was inviting, making me for a brief moment consider losing against him once again, this time on purpose. But I wasn't going to let him win this so easily, So I held my place.

He didn't fear me, and surprisingly I was okay with that. It felt good whatever he was feeling for me right now.

"I…" Akira muttered as we broke our kiss, his eyes lost in the background.

[Akira POV]

What in the hell was that, I almost felt out of control… like if I had entered the Avatar state for a brief moment and this was the result. Even now her lips looked inviting… welcoming.

"I…" I had no words, a part of me screamed I should fight this ludicrous feeling, that I shouldn't have any feelings for the Arkham case, but unfortunately for that part of me, what I was feeling was not only overwhelming of his own, but even more intoxicating with what I was feeling from Azula. Like a drug almost. No one before her had this raw feeling of wanting me so bad.

I wanted her, I didn't know why nor I cared. I wanted Azula. And I was going to have her.

"Akira…" Azula was about to say something, but this wasn't the time to talk, so I took a step forward, softly putting a hand on her face, demanding in a way another kiss as my lips were getting closer, the smell of her hypnotic beyond reason. She immediately shut up, and once again aggressively pushed back, her lips mashing against mine, and once again I felt that particular wave of warmth that made me question everything, like why was I feeling this… when I barely knew her.

I continued to kiss her, as the taste of her silenced all my thoughts.

She almost felt delicate under my arms, like a porcelain figure that could break if I pressed her too hard, making my whole body tingle at the feeling, but it also felt so good, especially the feeling of her frame leaning against me as my arms wrapped around her felt nearly forbidden, yet so right.

This would probably change a lot of things in my life, but I didn't care, claiming her mouth was intoxicating, with the feeling being hungry and intense, the feeling her knees giving in, was truly magnificent.

It was as if time had stopped right there for me to appreciate the moment, as we stood propped against the wall of the restaurant, glued to one another. As if no one else existed around us.

"Well, I have no words," I chuckled, breaking the kiss.

"You still owe me two questions," Azula stated, her eyes sinking into my core.

As I answered her questions, I started to question my motives, I knew this was wrong, I knew all the cons and problems of this… but it felt so right, she felt so small in my arms, so mine. The worst part is even under all her defenses she had allowed herself to feel something for me, I could feel her raw desire for love, screaming at me not to reject her.

The funny thing is… I knew I couldn't reject her… not anymore. That ship sailed a long time ago, for I felt something for her too.

[Ty Lee POV]

At first I was nervous, Azula was going on her first date… she was so smart and powerful with everything else, but so socially awkward when it came to boys. But this boy was different, he didn't fear her. Not a single bit. I knew that, I could see it on his aura. That like hers was broken, even more than hers.

So I made my personal mission to put those two together, giving Azula all my knowledge about boys, like laughing if they say something… though she took this too seriously laughing even when there was no need.

I also told her to be the one to initiate the kiss, boys love that. But if I had to be honest I expected a little kiss, a peck on the lips, not the full out make out session they were having, it was beyond my shipping expectations.

The way they kissed was hypnotizing… I had never seen kisses like that, so powerful yet so delicate.

"Azula had a boyfriend…" I smiled, there was no doubt of that.

"For how long?" Mai boringly added, "If the Firelord doesn't like him… that's the end of them,"

"I have a feeling… he doesn't care about what the Firelord thinks…" I replied, for some reason Akira seemed like the type of man that didn't care what others said. His aura said that much, but that was just the underline, I have seen the aura of Ozai, I know with detail how much of a monster he is. And yet, beside Akira his aura feels like a kitten throwing a fit.
