ZukoxMe took a deep breath and faced her path to Zuko. She began to walk, then fast walking, and then jogging, now running. She got to Zuko, and put a hand on Zuko's shoulder to catch her breath.
"Zu.. *cough* Zu *inhale* Zuko! *big inhale* Song's in trouble!! A tall, well built guy, with long hair and two hookswords and I think he was the same guy who tried to expose you, forcefully took Song into a small room and locked it! Whoever knows what he's gonna do to her!" ZukoxMe cried.
Zuko gave her a look. A "Riiight..." look.
ZukoxMe cried, "ZUKO! LOOK!" She pointed to the place Song was being held captive. She was screaming inside, "HELP ME! GET ME OUTTA HERE!"
Zuko, immediately, without knowing he was falling for a trap, dropped his glass, nearly knocking the half-screaming ZukoxMe, and sprinting to the room. ZukoxMe quickly followed. Zuko opened the door and ran inside, and ZukoxMe shut the door behind him and locked it. She took the key and put it away. ZukoxMe called from outside, "Have fun!" and high-fived PE and TLA.
They all rejoiced, "We did it!"

Pleading Eyes did a little victory dance, then turned to high five TLA and ZukoXMe again.
"Now all we need is someway to enjoy the show!" Now that was the dilemma.
True, Zuko and Song needed their privacy, and the fans didn't want to intervene! But what was wrong with monitoring the situation a little, making sure all went well?

Sapphire walked over to Pleading Eyes, ZukoxMe, and TLA. "Wow, good job getting Zuko and Song alone together, guys," she said. "Mind if I join your little group in making sure all goes well?"

"Happy to have you join!" Pleading Eyes said to sapphirestar enthusiastically. "We were just trying to figure out a way to spy--I mean make sure all goes well!" She laughed, hoping no one had caught her Freudian slip.
"So... any ideas?"

Sapphire smiled and set to work thinking of possible ideas. "Well, there's a small window on each of the two sides of the room. Maybe someone could peek in one of them every once in a while?" Sapphire suggested, shrugging.

ZukoxMe nods to Sapphire's idea. She trotts over to the right window, sets up her video and audio devices, and hits record. Everyone stares.
"What? It's just to help me listen!"

Sapphire goes over and joins ZukoxMe. From what they could gather, Song was sitting on the one couch in the small room with a little smile on her lips, watching Zuko as he furiously paced the floor. 'If anyone can calm Zuko down,' Sapphire thought, 'it's Song.' Sapphire and ZukoxMe caught bits of their conversation: "...burn down the door!" "No Zuko, just relax." "...fangirls were up to something!" "...we're away from them here. It's okay." "Right, I guess it is nice to have real privacy at last." Sapphire and ZukoxMe snickered at the irony of Zuko's last comment. They then saw Song stand up from the couch and walk over to where Zuko was standing with his arms folded across his chest. She gently took his hand and led him over to the couch and both sat down, smiling shyly at one another. "Yes!" Sapphire and ZukoxMe whispered in unison and high-fived each other. "Everything's going well, let's hope it continues that way," Sapphire said.

ZukoxMe edged closer to the hidden window pane. From her "listening" devices, she could hear and see, that Zuko had his dating form. He was twiddling his thumbs and staring down at them. ZukoxMe snickered with Sapphire.
Song bit her lip and sighed. She edged in, closer to Zuko. Zuko looked up, and stared at her. They blinked at each other with inusion. Closely, they went in, closer... closer... closer... until...
They kissed. A passionate, wet, intense, burning kiss. They kept kissing, no better word, snogging.
ZukoxMe and Sapphire dropped their jaws. Sapphire was squealing with delight and jumped up and down. ZukoxMe dried a tear. Sapphire stopped jumping, and looked at ZukoxMe, concerned.
"ZxM, are you okay?" she asked.
ZukoxMe looked up, and smiled, tears still moist in her eyes. She nodded. "It's just that I'm so happy for Zuko. He finally found someone. Too bad I'm not Song!" she cried. She smiled, stood up, and went to a bench. She smiled around the bash, though her eyes still wet.
One tear released. Not a tear of joy, but a tear of sadness. Zuko, will, never be hers. Not in this lifetime anyways.

TLA cheers and quietly snaps photos of the couple kissing, happy he had some pictures of the two in the shipbash memory book. "Well done everyone! Let's go enjoy the rest of the party; I'll unlock the door so when those 2 are done with...well, whatever they were doing, they can come back and enjoy the bash."

As ZukoXMe, thelastavatar, and sapphirestar rejoiced (and mourned) Zuko and Song's discovered love for each other, Pleading Eyes was strangely absent.
She had watched from aside, as ZukoXMe set up the devices. She had listened in, she had seen. And Pleading Eyes agreed with ZukoXMe, that while seeing Zuko happy was the most wonderful gift, it also came at a heavy price. Zuko could never be hers.
But Pleading Eyes shrugged it away. There was no time for selfish sadness. This was a party after all!
She walked back into the crowd, smiling bittersweetly.
"I guess... our work here is done." She murmured to herself softly, glancing back at the wonderful friends she had made here. "Until the next ship bash then."
With a determined nod, Pleading Eyes left Zuko and Song behind to their own devices and joined the party, danced a few times, enjoyed herself, before walking out, already planning ahead for the next ship bash.
Behind her, the party went on.

ZukoxMe dried her tears and waved to PE. It's gonna be an all-nighter for her!

Sapphire was so glad Zuko and Song were finally together that she couldn't stop smiling. After everything Zuko and Song had been through, they deserved to be happy, and now they could be happy together. She gave the small room they were in one last look before going over to the refreshments table to get two cups of tea. She then went over and sat on the bench next to ZukoxMe to offer her some company and handed her one of the cups of tea. Sapphire waved good-bye to Pleading Eyes as well when she saw her exit, and then sat back to enjoy the rest of the party.

ZukoxMe gladly took the cup of tea. She blew over it, to cool it. She sipped. This tea was wonderful! She looked at the inscription on the bottom of the cup. Tea made by Mushi of the Jasmine Dragon. She chuckled, and kept sipping.
