It was dark and bitter cold, but he didn't feel it that much. He was a firebender and could heat himself up, if needed. Besides, this was the Southern Water Tribe, where it was supposed to be cold. He hated the cold, but he came for her. He saw her sitting in the snow on a cliff watching the night sky.

"Katara, aren't you cold?" he asked as he sat next to her.

"I've lived here my entire life. I'm used to it." She smiled. "I'm surprised to see you out here though."

"I came to sit with you."

"And the cold?"

"I'm a firebender. All we do is heat things up." He smirked.

"I guess that works, but for tonight, can you not heat anything up? Just enjoy the cold with me."

He nodded and turned his attention to the night sky, like she had. The stars were shining brilliantly, the moon was bright, and no clouds were in sight. Even if it was cold, it was beautiful out. Somehow better than the nights at the Fire Nation.

"It's beautiful Katara," he said as he put his arm around her to keep the both of them warm.

"Wait a moment more," she said.

He waited and soon he saw little white flakes falling from the sky. It was snowing. It had been such a long time since he saw it snowing and he forgotten how peaceful it could be. The crisp cool feeling of a snowflake hitting his face, the light, airy sound of the snow hitting the ground, and the childlike atmosphere of snow coming down. Something about seeing the snow coming down and sitting next to Katara made Zuko not feel so cold anymore.

"It's beautiful," he repeated. Part of him wasn't sure if she knew it was going to snow or if she did it herself but wasn't going to question it. Some things are better left unsaid.

"I missed this. I didn't realize how much I did until now."

"Would you stay here forever?" he asked. "You know I'd stay with you if you did."

"I know, but I won't. My home is with you Zuko. I can always come here and visit if I want. Besides," she said, holding up her hand, "I can make it snow any time I wish."

Day Seventeen of Zutara Month: Snow

Granted, I know I don't have to put the definition of snow since we pretty much all know what it is, but since I've done it for every day so far, might as well continue it. :P

I wanted something cute and fluffy for this, which is surprising because I'm so not a fluffy writer. :shrug: Maybe it's just because I want snow, maybe it's because I love the frosted look, maybe it's because I have red and silver and gold and sparkles and snowflakes in my room. Who knows. All I know is I've been working like crazy, I'm exhausted and I'm hoping to write something up for tomorrow tonight cause I'll be gone all day tomorrow. :P

Oh yeah, and I'm so ready for this month to be over with. :| I love my Zutara, but a month and espically this month is getting too much now.
