A/N: You didn't really think I'd just leave there, did you? Psh! I'm not that evil. ^_^ Or am I? o_o

Kya helped her mother cut the vegetables.

"So how did the sparing go?"

"It was okay."

"Okay?" Katara looked at her daughter. Normally when Lin left, Kya would go on about how they both had a great time. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah," Kya forced a smile.

"You don't seem like it." Katara placed her hand on Kya's shoulder. "Did something happen today?"

"Well, no… But then yes," Kya exhaled softly.

"Care to explain?"

"I don't think that would be a good idea."

"Well you know it's better to talk about things then keep them all in." Her daughter turned her head. "You can tell me anything, and you know that."

"It's about Lin," Kya said softly.

"Go on," her mother said with a smile.

"Well Lin was distracted today and we started talking. It turns out that she has a crush on someone."

"Well that's not bad is it? Tenzin has already moved on, why shouldn't Lin?"

"It's not bad but I," she bit her lips. "I don't want her to be crushing on someone."

"Why not?"

"Well, because," Kya let out a frustrated sigh. Why was this so hard to confess?

"It's okay Kya, I understand what you mean." Katara smiled at her eldest child.

"You do?"

"Yes, I do. So who is this someone that she has a crush on?"

"She didn't tell me."

"What if she has a crush on you?"

"Oh please. Why would she like me?"

"Well, I wouldn't have the slightest idea," her mother said sarcastically.

"You're not funny."

"Kya, you are a very beautiful and very intelligent young lady. What's not to like about you?"

"Tenzin thinks I'm too aggressive sometimes."

"And you don't think that Lin would like that? Lin is aggressive."

"She's not aggressive. She's really sweet." Her mother rolled her eyes.

"Hey Kya?" Tenzin entered the kitchen with his brother Bumi.

"Yeah Tenzin?"

"Did Lin forget something?"

"No," she raised her brow, "why?"

"They're coming back for something," said Bumi.

"What?"

"Look outside. Toph and Lin are coming back." Kya looked at her mother and washed her hands quickly.

"I'll be back mom,"

"While you're out there, you might as well ask them if they want to stay for dinner,"

"Alright."


"Mom, please. Turn back, I'm begging you."

"Lin, do you like Kya?"

"Yes…"

"Do you really like her? Or are you doing this just to get back at Tenzin?"

"Why is it that everybody has to mention Tenzin?! I don't care about Tenzin! I care about Kya!"

The ship stopped at the docks. Lin sighed and looked to her mother. "Now… What did I always tell you?"

"If you want something, you go and you get it," said Lin and her mother smiled. For some reason it made her feel more confident.

"Then go get her." Lin smiled and jumped off the side of the boat. She didn't want to rush herself. She stepped in the direction of their house and took a deep breath. How was she going to tell Kya?

"Do what you gotta do," she told herself with confidence, "You'll never know until you try."


Kya stepped outside with Tenzin and Bumi following behind her.

Kya could see Lin walking in their direction. Kya smiled. She held her head high and walked at a steady pace. That was the Lin that Kya knew. She couldn't say for sure but it looked like Lin was determined to do something. Kya stopped and waited for Lin to met her the rest of the way. Her brothers lagged back not wanting to upset Lin if it was a private matter. The two of them seen Lin angry, and it wasn't a pretty sight.

"Hey Lin, did you forget something?" Lin took a deep breath and prayed to the Spirits that Kya wouldn't kill her after what she was about to do. Lin didn't think words could express her feelings for Kya. She felt confident. She didn't even pay any mind to Bumi and Tenzin standing just a few feet away when she kissed Kya hard on the lips. Both Bumi and Tenzin's jaw dropped instantly.

Lin stepped back. She didn't dare look up at Kya's expression. "I'm sorry Kya, but I didn't know how else to-" Kya touched Lin's cheek and pulled her closer for another kiss. Lin closed her eyes, wrapping her arms around Kya' s waist.

"Ouch, that must hurt big time little bro," Bumi said with a laugh. He looked down at his brother. Tenzin barred his teeth and turned as red as a flame. There was stem, literally coming out of his ears. He turned around without saying a word and charged for the house.

Kya broke the kiss and smiled at Lin. "Would you and your mother like to stay for dinner?"

"We'd love to!" Toph said as she passed the two. "We can't miss out on a free meal, can we Lin?"

Lin rolled her eyes, "no way," she said with a smirk.

A/N: I just love happy endings. :')
