When Aang slips his hand into Zuko’s, it feels like flying.
Zuko has never been good with words. He’s not a poet and he’s not a hero. He’s just trying to do the best thing for the world and even now he’s still trying to reclaim his ‘honor’ only the path to something like that has changed so drastically that he’s no longer really sure what honor means anymore, anyway.
But he thinks maybe Aang knows.
And so if he doesn’t pull away from the younger boy and if he lets Aang wrap thin (but still so impossibly muscular for a twelve year old) arms around his neck, it’s only because he’s hoping that Aang will show him the right way to go.
Zuko does not allow the boy to do these things because Zuko is in love with him.
(but sometimes zuko kisses aang’s arrows and prays that aang never leaves)

a/n: Ugh, yours was the worst BTW. I kept trying to start it, then I'd write a couple sentences and just stop. Me and Zukaang don't get along apparently.
