Remember this series? Well it's returned with a cliché oneshot to rekindle those Kataangy flames.

Even though I didn't want write anything for what happened after the finale kiss I decided to anyway, and even though I wanted to have this collection in a somewhat chronological order that's obviously out the window now since this is around the end of where I wanted.

So I decided that I'll just let this collection focus on Aang and Katara's dating relationship in general since I'm sure Fire War Renaissance (which, yes, I still am writing) won't cover everything. I'll add some snippets that might've been cut from FWR or just ideas that pop into my head.

The two broke apart after countless moments of staying locked at the lips. Aang was the first to open his eyes and almost laughed when he saw Katara still had her eyes closed, mouth slightly opened, it was all too similar to when he pulled away when he kissed her during the invasion.

She let out a breath and then slowly opened her eyes only to smile when Aang was still so close to her, she sighed and leaned down to his shoulder and tucked herself there. It was then when Aang loosened his grip on Katara; noticing how tight he was holding her around her waist he was surprised she hadn't said anything yet. Or maybe she just liked it? The thought of that made him blush deeper than he already was.

Behind them the sun set promptly; giving them a cue that it was their time to go inside and rejoin their group of friends they had abandon for a little while. Aang signaled Katara that it was time to leave and she lifted her head response; while they headed back, though, Katara laced her fingers between Aang's and particularly loving the feeling of how his palm warmed so much at the contact.

The whole room fell silent when they entered hand and hand, blushing lightly, and completely oblivious to the stares they were receiving due to their eyes locked on one another's dreamily.

"I'll get us some tea," Aang finally said to Katara when he pulled her chair out and she took a seat. He leaned down and kissed her cheek softly before leaving to the other side of the room and Katara just played with her hair at his gesture; her faint blush growing deeper. She unconsciously found herself clutching her mother's necklace as well after Aang's departure.

Oh mom, Katara sighed to herself and looked over at the boy she loved. Everything's so perfect now, I don't even think it's all real.

Aang got the tea from the lone tray near the Pai Sho table and when he went to get two cups he finally noticed how some pairs of eyes were on him calmly.

"What?" Aang asked simply as he turned to face Zuko, Mai, Toph, and Suki. Sokka was off "perfecting" his picture and was blissfully unaware of Aang and Katara's entrance at the moment.

"Nothing," was the vague word everyone settled on and Aang shrugged it off to return to Katara.

"`Bout time," Toph muttered to herself.

When Aang returned Katara's face was still slightly flushed—after all it was the first time he had actually kissed her on the cheek before—causing Aang to smiled broadly.

"Here you go," he acknowledged the steaming cup to her which she gladly took a first sip before asking him something.

"Aang?" She asked quietly into her cup; not meeting his eyes.

"Hmm?"

"Are we, you know, together now?" She clutched her necklace in fear, only praying that he would say "yes" instead of "he wasn't sure."

"Well, if you think we are….I-I want us to be," they were both looking away now but Aang felt the need to be in contact with her so he blindly searched for her hand and laced their fingers together.

"M-me too, I, Aang I realize now that I…" She turned towards him as did he and they leaned in closer. None of them knew why but they were getting all nervous again, even though they had already kissed they were still dumbfounded at the fact that it was going to be regular now. Her lips gently brushed his before they both pulled away in embarrassment.

It would definitely take some getting used to.

"So you….what?" Aang asked softly; trying to change the subject back to the original question.

"Oh, I, uh, well-" she looked up at him and smiled shyly. His expressions softened and he bent over to plant a soft kiss on her forehead.

"Yeah?"

"I-"

"Alright you two want to explain to me what's going on?" Sokka butt in at his normal "perfect timing."

"What do you mean Sokka?" Katara snipped and pulled Aang a little closer with a wicked intension of getting under her big brother's skin.

"I mean what's this I hear about you two prancing in here like newlyweds?"

"I, well, you see Sokka it's just that I went outside to get some fresh air and Katara followed me and……uh,"

"And?" Sokka coaxed him.

"Well, we just got caught up in the moment and…"

"Yeah?"

"Aang and I are dating now." Katara spewed out and raised her hand, twined with Aang's. Sokka's mouth visibly dropped open and he almost fainted if Suki hadn't run up and caught him.

"That's great you guys." Suki said: juggling Sokka against her and giving Aang and Katara happy smile. "I'm-" she hoisted Sokka up against her more "-So happy for you."

"When he gets like that, just slap him behind his left ear." Katara informed Suki on how to handle her brother's fainting. He always did this when he walked in on someone giving birth back in the southern tribe.

"Oh, Thanks."

"Look, I know you two are…a thing now, but even couples have to sleep, it's past midnight." Sokka told Aang and Katara.

"We're just going to have another cup of tea, then we'll sleep," Aang raised his right hand. "Avatar promise."

"Alright…but I'll be watching." Sokka pointed an accusing finger at both of them before exiting the room, leaving the couple alone.

"Alone, finally." Katara sighed and slumped into the couch near the fireplace. "It's was nice to be congratulated by everyone all evening but it's nice just to spend some time with you, you've been so busy lately."

"I know, but at least now we have a legitimate reason to be together more than usual now." Aang told her and handed her the other cup of tea. The two sipped quietly before posing a question.

"Hey, Aang?"

"Hmm?"

"I know this seems a little odd but, how long do you think we'll be together?"

"I…I don't know, as long as it lasts."

"That's pretty vague," She stared into her tea, almost sadly.

"If it's the thought of me leaving you for someone else that bothers you, don't worry, you're the only girl I'll ever feel this way about." He laced their fingers together again, and almost on impulse Katara leaned her head against his shoulder. She sighed contently against him. The warmth of the tea and the fire place, with the fact that their feelings were now mutual made the moment pretty much perfect in Katara's eyes. She looked up at Aang, smiling.

"You know, right now I think keeping our relationship vague is for the best." Aang started at her quizzically.

"Oh?" He hummed, taking another sip.

"I mean, if we map it all out now then we won't have any room to grow or change." She squeezed his hand. "And that's the part I look forward to the most."

He bent down and kissed her softly on her lips, only a brief contact to fit the tranquil peace the atmosphere had created.

"Me too," he concurred.

The pair sat in passive silence for the remainder of the time it took them both to finish their tea.

"Good night Aang," she bid him when the two were in front of Aang's bedroom door.

"Good night," they embraced tightly. "Katara?"

"Yes?"

"I think we're going to be okay." She pulled away from him, meeting his eyes deeply and kissed him.

"Me too."

Sappiness anyone?
