"You got in a fight Katara?!" Hakoda had his daughter sat at the table as she had an ice pack on her cheek as she looked satisfied with the bruises on her hands.

"Are you fucking kidding me kid?! Your the good one! I raised you better!" He threw his hands in the air wide eyes as she huffed a little. She was never scared of when her father got angry, it was rare and she knew she was in the right for this, he wouldn't get far, she was better at arguing than her father and brother.

"You've never gotten in fights! With some poor girl who's tooth you knocked out!" He yelled shocked at his little girl who had no remorse in her eyes. She smiled a little instead.

"I told her I'd ruin her teeth, and it's a back molar, can't see it," Katara raised a brow at him.

"That's not the point!" He slammed his hands on the table.

Zuko, Sokka and Suki sat at the top of the stairs out of the way at they listened. Suki was proud of her as Sokka was bewildered never hearing the little sister that's always been the voice of reason. Zuko knew she had a fight in her ready to go, he was glad to witness it.

"Was there blood?" Sokka asked.

"Yep," Zuko picked at his nails.

"They'll charge you for assault!" Hakoda yelled.

"She sexually assaulted Zuko! And been harassing him! He can't hit her but I can if she tries anything again," Katara rolled her eyes at him.

"If they want to charge us we got shit coming back and witnesses," she scoffed narrowing her eyes.

"She assaulted him?" Hakoda blinked.

"Kissed him while he was having a panic attack that she caused," Katara nodded and it was silent in the house.

"That's fucked up," he nodded softly.

"You still knocked her tooth out and busted her lip," Hakoda crossed his arms thinking about a punishment fit for her.

"She yanked out my hair and gave me a bloody nose," Katara defended.

"She shoved me first," she smiled a little.

"Did you win?" He asked calmly.

"Pinned her and made her apologize," the youngest of the family rubbed the top of her hand at the bruises.

"If they ask I took away your laptop and not allowed to go out with friends," Hakoda nodded and Katara smiled more.

"What's the real punishment?" She pushed her hair over her shoulder.

"You're free to go, first fight so don't do it again, otherwise do it off school grounds, I don't like talking to your principal," he huffed looking at his daughter proudly.

"Deal, also mom bailed me out of the fights I got into elementary school and they also were with boys, so I never got in trouble," Katara got up from the table as Hakodas jaw dropped when she ran up the stairs.

"Cant believe you got out of that," Sokka got to his feet as she saw everyone listening.

"Maybe if you win fights you wouldn't get grounded," Katara helped Zuko off the ground.

"Or just don't do them on school grounds and you won't get caught," Zuko nodded agreeing.

"Plus you always let them  hit first," Suki bounced up to her feet with a smile. "Thank god you took that bitch out otherwise I was about too,"

"Don't get cocky or you'll lose next time," Sokka rolled his eye and Katara beamed.

"I won't lose next time, I was raised with you and dad, can't wimp out," she flexed as Suki laughed at her and Zuko shook his head at the two girls.

Katara high fived Suki before they went into each other's rooms and Katara closed the door behind her, she turned around and gasped when Zuko slammed her against the door.

"That was the hottest thing I've ever seen," he whispered against her ear and Katara shoved him back with a smile.

"Your a freak Zuko," she pushed him again and he fell on the bed with a smile as he laid on his back.

"Takes one to know one kat," he chuckled at her as Katara crawled over him laughing.

"You love it," she placed her hands on the sides of his head.

"Way to much," he grabbed the back of her thighs to pull her up as she squealed laughing as she kissed him gently.

"No one gets to make you feel like, enough to make you black out, no one," she whispered against his lips and Zuko flipped her over so he was on top.

"My hero," he smirked as she wrapped her arms around his shoulders. "Thank you,"

-

Katara fell asleep in zukos arms as she laid between his legs with her head on his chest, her comforter up around them as he watched tv with his hoodie stolen from his girlfriend who wore it. He had both arms wrapped around her as he had his tee shirt on that showed his tattoos down his arm.

"Hey," Hakoda knocked on the door quietly.

"Hi," Zuko waved awkwardly as Katara stayed sleeping.

"Are you okay?" He asked softly leaning against the door frame.

"Yeah? Why?" The teen frowned confused.

"The girl, I know she's been bothering you and all," he pursed his lips and Zuko looked down a little at Katara.

"It's whatever, Sorry Katara got in a fight because of me," Zuko looked at him nervously.

"Relax, I like you Zuko, your a good kid, and you treat my daughter good," Hakoda nodded with a small smile.

"If you need to talk to anyone, somethings you don't want to tell your uncle, I'm here to listen, or help, I know you don't come from a good family but you're definitely welcomed to ours, if Sokka likes you means your a good man," he chuckled as Zuko looked at him almost with hope, his eyes widening a little.

"I don't know what to say," Zuko whispered pressing his nose to Kataras hairline.

"You don't have to say anything, have you guys done.. anything? I don't want to be a grandfather," Hakoda made a face scrunching up his nose hating the question but he asked his son the same thing when Suki started sleeping over.

"N-no, nothing like that," Zuko blushed shaking his head.

"Take care of her, that's my baby girl right there, my kids are my world," he motioned to his daughter and Zuko nodded again holding her tightly.

"I love her a lot, one of the best things in my life right now," he smiled back gently.

"What's the best?" Hakoda humored him.

"My cat," Zuko smiled more and the man laughed a little shaking his head.

"Valid, see you in the morning," Hakoda waved them off closing the door behind him as Zuko shuffled a little to slide down on the pillows as he paid attention to the show again.
