July

"Sokka, it's time to wake up," Azula told him.

"Five more minutes."

Azula bit his neck. "If you wake up right now, I'll make your shower more interesting."

His eyes shot open. "What did you have in mind?"

She took him by the hand and got him into the shower. He sat on the chair inside and she began to give him a full body scrub.

"I can't wait to get this off," Sokka said of his cast.

"What day is it coming off?"

"July 15th!"

Azula laughed.

"What's so funny?"

"Today's the 15th."

Sokka cooed in excitement.

Azula knelt in front of him and sucked little Sokka into her awaiting mouth.

"OH YEAH!"

Zuko pounded his head on his desk. "I can't believe I let her move in here." Those two were so loud and went at it all the time.

Zuko wanted Sokka's cast to come off just so he could throw them both out of the house and get some peace and quiet. He put on his headphones, again, and put on some music. Time for Rage Against the Machine.

Suki and Ty Lee were doing some pre-college shopping. Ty Lee would be living in the dorms freshman year and Suki wanted to help her get ready while there were sales going on.

Unfortunately, the two sisters had two different ideas of what Ty Lee needed. Suki had more of a practical approach, towels, bed sheets, a laundry basket … Ty Lee was more interested in getting lingerie, high heels, and visiting the local sex shop.

"I don't really need to spend this money on my dorm room. I'll be sleeping over Haru's a lot anyway."

Suki shook her head. "You should have your own place set up. What if you two get into a fight … or break up?"

Ty Lee didn't see that happening at least not until graduation. "How about we get this boring stuff and then we go to the sex shop? I bet Zuko would love to see you in a corset."

Suki rolled her eyes. "You are so incorrigible."

Ty Lee knew that was a yes. "Let's go!" She grabbed her sister's hand and dragged her along.

"Go Dodgers!" Tom Tom was at his first Dodgers game with Mai and Ruon Jian. His face was covered in ice cream. In other words, he was absolutely adorable.

Mai had never been interested in baseball before, but the game wasn't so bad. There was plenty of food, drink, and at least someone was paying attention to Tom Tom, not that it was ever his own parents.

Mai's father was still wary of Ruon Jian and made a point to glare at him every time he saw the man. Mai continued to ignore her father. Ruon Jian cared about Mai and Tom Tom more than her father ever would. Who was he to tell her anything?

When the kiss cam came around, Mai gave Ruon Jian a big kiss. She knew her father was watching the game wherever he was. This was a giant "Fuck You" to him.

"EW COOTIES!" Tom Tom yelled at them.

Ruon Jian broke from the kiss and laughed. "I'll have to get the cootie shot."

"Why, you're the one infected?"

Sokka had never felt so liberated once he got his cast off.

"This is amazing!"

His newly healed leg was smaller and paler than the other, but he had just gotten over the big hurdle.

"It's going to take some time for your leg to catch up. Don't overexert yourself right now."

"Don't worry," Azula told the doctor. "I'll make sure he lies down as much as necessary.

Sokka smirked. She meant that too. "Ready to get out of here."

She nodded. "I know just the place." They went to the Starbucks that they frequented often while they were sneaking around. Now, it had a rooftop coffee bar.

"This is really nice," Sokka told her as they picked a table.

Azula only smiled before she slid her hand under the table. It was time to celebrate in style.

As soon as Suki and Ty Lee got back from shopping, the younger sister was texting away, eager to meet up with Haru.

"I can't wait to show him what I bought."

"Don't you believe in a little mystery?" Why show him the second you get it?"

"Aw, that's so cute." Ty Lee kissed her sister's cheek.

Suki shook her head.

It was less than an hour later that Haru came to pick up Ty Lee.

Suki started to do some chores when she got a phone call.

"Hey Zuko what's going on?"

"I have an empty house right now. Did you want to come over?" Sokka and Azula were celebrating his cast removal by going all over town (and fucking left and right). Zuko wanted to celebrate having them gone.

"Sure. Do you want me to bring anything?"

"Just yourself."

When Suki got to his house, she was surprised to see he had sparkling wine and two plates.

"I wanted to do something special, just for us." Dealing with Sokka and Azula all summer had been a pain in the ass, mostly due to Azula.

Suki grinned and kissed him. "Maybe we should be the ones making noise all night long." Let's give them a taste of their own medicine.

Zuko couldn't disagree with that. He picked her up and carried her to bed. Dinner could wait.

Teo and Katara were on vacation. Teo had gotten some free travel vouchers from his employer and they decided to go to Jamaica.

Katara never thought she would find herself lying on a beach smoking weed, but after the year she had, she needed to relax.

"I still can't believe my stupid brother is with that manipulative witch."

Teo handed her another joint. "Let's forget about them. This week is about us."

Katara took a puff. "Do you think they're going to get married?"

Teo could see that happening. "Not before we do."

Katara pulled Teo on top of her, and they fell into the sand. She was ready to forget all about them.

Long Feng just got his new contract approved. Now, he would be rehabilitating mentally deranged prisoners. They decided to start with the sexual deviants.

When he saw Ozai on his patient list, he knew this would be an interesting time.

The scarred man was not in the mood for therapy.

"Do you know why you're here?"

No response.

"I'm here to cure you of your perversions."

Still no response.

Ozai got strapped to the table and electrodes were put on his brain and chest. Mozart played in the background.
