Here's your vanilla cake!
And I finally conquered (some) of my laziness and typed in the third part of my Maiko story: Flowers. Here it is.
The young aristocrat had everything. Shoes, clothes, lotions among other miscellaneous things crowded her room and closet. This, in effect caused another young aristocrat to suffer when choosing her birthday present. Zuko had looked everywhere to find Mai the perfect present. So far, the search had been unsuccessful and the young prince was starting to get tired. He had no idea what eleven-year-old girls wanted. Azula would have known but Zuko was too proud to ask her. The prince groaned. He wanted Mai to love his present above all others. It was the least he could do when two months ago, she had accompanied him in that lonely picnic. Suddenly, Zuko had an idea. He was surprised that he had not thought of it before, even though he had had two weeks to get ready for Mai’s birthday party that night. He smiled to himself, put on shoes and ran to where the two aristocrats had spent that day during the summer. He easily found what he was looking for. The rare Panda Lily, even rarer than the Tiger Lily, looked at him from the cliff’s edge. Zuko knew Mai wanted that flower. After all, she had almost died when she tried to get it. Zuko took in a big breath, knowing that he was risking his life to get the flower, and slowly inched closer to the flower. He tried not to look down but it was harder than he had imagined. Finally, after a few minutes of crawling through the mud, he had the Panda Lily held tightly between his fingers. Carefully, he crawled back, making sure not to crush the delicate flower, stood up and walked back to the palace. Mai was going to be surprised at her birthday party tonight.
Mai’s presents varied from socks to expensive perfumes. No one except for Zuko had brought flowers though. The boy smiled when he realized this. Mai stood near the table with presents, greeting the newcomers, the polite thing to do. Zuko walked over to give her the flower. “Hello Mai,” he said, one hand behind his back, hiding the flower. “Thank you for coming to my party,” she said with a sincere smile. “I got this for you,” said the boy, holding up the flower. Mai’s eyes were tearful for a moment but there was a grin of happiness on her face. Shakily, she grabbed the Panda Lily. “Thank you,” she whispered, incredulous. In response, the boy smiled, bowed and walked away, knowing it was the polite thing to do. More newcomers were coming in.
If there had not been dozens of people inside the ballroom, Mai might have hugged Zuko and cried. Of course, even if she had, Zuko would have avoided her for the next ten years or so. Mai didn’t want to look creepy. Still, it would be wonderful if she could dance the night away with Zuko and then, at midnight, they would kiss and… “Mai?” asked someone. “What? Oh, yeah, welcome to my party,” said the young girl, confused, at being woken up from her dreams. The young Fire Nation prince laughed. Mai blushed and looked at the floor intently, something she only seemed to do near Zuko. The two children stood in silence after that. “So, where’s the flower?” asked Zuko. “I took it up to my room,” responded the girl, “I didn’t want it to be crushed.” “I see,” was all he said before an awkward silence covered them again, being something that apparently happened often between them. “Would you like to dance?” asked the Prince after looking at all the people dancing in the ballroom. “Um, sure,” Mai was almost sure she would faint. She just hoped she did not look like a fool in the end. Sifu Gee had said, after all, that she was the clumsiest person in the dancing class in the Royal Academy. However, the two aristocrats managed to dance without either of them fainting, vomiting, or doing anything else of the sort. This was the best birthday gift Mai had ever gotten.
Yeah, I know its not that good. I haven't even proofread it yet!! Please comment.

Thank you. I think the last paragraph sounds kind of weird though. I'll edit it later. Anyway, I have to go now. My mom says i have to do something "productive" like, reading, which I actually do pretty often.
