5This story is a two to three shot based on my long running series, the Princess and the Peasant. It is set in an alternate universe where the Four Nations are separate continents that are part of a modern-day Earth.
In this universe, there is no One Hundred Year War, and there are also none of the other major conflicts that are occurring in the main story timeline. Because there is no One Hundred Year War, Azula is not as sadistic as she is in the main story and in canon. In this story, she is less of a villain and more of a spoiled wealthy young woman with a cruel streak in messing with people of lower status.
The quick backstory that I have for this universe, is that Azula has the responsibility of going to the Royal Fire University to keep her mind sharp so that she can lead her country to the best of her ability. The same can be said for Mai and Ty Lee, as the same is expected of nobility.
Whereas the main story has themes of violent wars, politics, action and battles, the supernatural, drama, friendship and romance. This is primarily a brief, lighthearted romance.
This can be read and enjoyed without having read the main story. There are no big spoilers in this offshoot for any of the main events in the main story. Any details that are revealed in this little side story, are revealed in the first five chapters of the main story.
If you like it, feel free to go check out the main story if you are interested in reading more about Azula and Elle.
First Date - Chapter One
Azula walked with her head held high as proof of her high status while she made her way to her college campus.
As she now wore her school uniform which consisted of an elegant long-sleeved shirt with a golden tie that hung down over her breasts.
While her fine red skirt that ended just below her thighs swayed behind her and managed to perfectly accent her womanly curves.
And over her shoulders was her backpack while she gazed ahead with cold amber golden eyes as she walked to the Royal Fire University gates.
And a golden crown rested at the top of her head that also served to hold her dark hair in a sophisticated bun.
Only to find herself pausing in her steps to glare ruthlessly over her shoulder when she sensed a pair of eyes on her.
A petite commoner girl was staring shyly at her from the other end of the street.
Her cold eyes glanced imposingly in the girl's direction only for her hardened gaze to flash with a flicker of interest.
The girl was pitifully short, several inches under five feet tall by the look of it.
But she…she was so…adorable.
And her hair…it was the loveliest shade of blonde!
In all her life she can count on one hand the amount of times that she has seen blonde hair.
There were no people that were born naturally blonde in the Fire Nation or the any of the other three nations for that matter.
And that meant…that the girl had to be a foreigner from one of the continents on the other side of the world.
And it was then that she noticed that the girl's eyes were an equally lovely shade of amber.
Her strict eyes continued stared back at the girl as she took in her white long-sleeved shirt.
And the girl's plaid grey tie that hung from around her neckline.
'She is…. cute.' Azula thought while she scowled in the bashful girl's direction.
Only for her to narrow her intimidating eyes at the girl's face.
However, it was obvious that the girl was a commoner by the way that she was dressed and commoners were beneath her.
"What are you looking at, peasant!" Azula boomed in an authoritative voice while she took great pleasure in watching the girl jump in panic when she realized that she had been spotted.
"N-nothing, Princess!" Elle cried out as she turned to walk away while an adorable blush adorned her cheeks.
As the princess watched her walk off with her icy amber golden eyes glaring in her direction.
Only for Azula to arrogantly shake her head as she turned to resume her stride towards the gates.
And shortly after that any thoughts regarding the girl swiftly left her mind as she mused that the girl wasn't worth her time.
Soon afterward at the Royal Fire University of the Fire Nation.
And the classroom was now underway while the many students sat in their respective seats.
It was a prestigious school that served as the intellectual hub for higher education in the Fire Nation.
It was a widely respected institution that was commonly frequented by the highborn.
Even the royals themselves sought to be in attendance.
Such as the Fire Princess herself, who had been born to the greatly distinguished Fire Nation Royal Family.
The twenty-one-year-old Azula sat at her desk with her callous amber golden eyes staring down at the phone in her hand.
At her feet lay her backpack.
As a member of the Royal Family and the heir to the Fire Nation throne.
It was expected that she keeps up on top of her education in order to flawlessly guide her nation once she ascends as ruler.
However, her attention was not currently focused on the dull lecture.
She gazed out of the corner of her callous eye while she made sure that no one was looking.
And then she discreetly leaned down to open her bag.
Inside laying carefully placed at the top of her books was a lovely fire lily that had been left by her secret admirer.
And then she quickly closed it while she sat back in her seat with her fingers reaching down to pry open her breast pocket.
She quietly withdrew the note as she once again gazed down at it with a flicker of excitement in her amber golden eyes.
And for the briefest of instances her strict cheeks almost adorned a tiny blush.
It was…another romantic poem. Written just for her.
Her cold eyes once again read the beautiful poem while she found her usual scowling lips almost giving way to a slight smile.
And at the bottom of the note was a hand written message.
Princess Azula,
I just wanted to let you know that you are the most beautiful girl in the world.
Love,
Elle.
The princess's heart skipped a beat in her chest while she clutched the paper in her open palm.
It was the first time in all her life that anyone had ever worked up the courage to approach her to give her a flower.
Even through it was done indirectly, no one had ever done that for her before.
Most boys and girls were just too terrified to speak to her much less approach her with a romantic offering.
And most curiously enough…it was apparent that flower came from another girl.
And at the very end of the poem…was a phone number.
'Elle…I wonder if she is a student at this school...' Azula thought as she glanced about the classroom with hawklike amber golden eyes in search of her admirer while a sliver of a blush adorned her regal cheeks.
For some time now her admirer had been leaving her poems and notes of admiration.
And now today, along with the third poem, and today the girl had even left her a fire lily.
And this time the girl had left her name and number.
She was so caught up in her musings that she didn't even notice her best friend leaning over to peer over her shoulder.
"What are you reading, Azula?" Ty Lee chirped with her usual cheery smile while the princess quickly closed her fist over the note.
"Nothing that is any of your business, Ty Lee." Azula replied in a moody voice as she turned up her nose while Ty Lee smiled back at her.
While Mai glanced at the two from the corner of her bored tawny eye.
"You seem…happier today, Azula." Mai commented in a monotone voice while Azula just scowled back at her.
"It was nothing important… just a note from Zuzu." Azula lied as she held her refined fist against her cheek while her two childhood friends gazed at her with unconvinced looks in their eyes.
Before they let it slide and returned their focus to the lecture.
After class…
The princess strode through the hallway while she held her phone in her hand as she typed out a text to the number that was left at the end of the poem.
And then she hit send.
Hey.
Her cold eyes intently observed her phone as she walked down the halls of the Royal Fire University.
And not a second after that she watched in mild surprise when a reply came through.
Um, hello. I hope I didn't offend you, Princess. I…just wanted to give you a flower, and poem.
Azula stared down at her phone with something akin to a smile almost forming onto her lips once more.
If nothing else this should make for an amusing little game.
Are you a student at this school?
Only for the princess's amber golden eyes to flicker in slight surprise when the next reply came through.
No. I am not in college yet…I am still in high school.
'High school?' Azula thought as she typed out another short reply.
How old are you?
…Sixteen.
While the princess paused in her tracks as she stared down at her phone in surprise.
Sixteen?
Only for her beautiful lips to smile in entertainment once more as she held a perfectly manicured fingernail under her chin.
'How amusing. I have a young admirer.' Azula thought with a smirk on her lips as she ran her fingernail along her chin.
Only for her cold eyes to glance down once more when another message popped through.
If I have bothered you please let me know. I won't bother you again, I promise.
And just as quickly Azula began to type once more.
This little exchange will end when I say it ends, and no sooner. Is that understood?
And a second after that another message popped in.
Yes…Princess.
The princess smiled once more as she began to punch in another reply.
All the while musing that she at least hoped that the girl would prove to be pretty enough to be worth her time.
Splendid. I would like to meet you. Meet me at the gates of the Royal Fire University at three sharp. If you are late, I will burn you to ashes.
And then she hit send once more while she gazed down in amusement when a final message came through on her phone.
Yes, Princess! I'll be there!
And with that she put her phone back in her bag while she walked with a cruelly playful smile on her lips.
Even if it proved to be a waste of her time.
She should at least be able to get some amusement out of watching the girl squirm before she crushed her hopes under her boot.
After school.
The tall princess strode with her bag over her shoulders while her strict eyes gazed ahead.
Just as she walked out of the front gates only for an expression of anger to break out on her face when another person impacted with her chest.
The sound of a girl yelping in fright resounded into the air while Azula now glared down with murderous amber golden eyes.
Only for her ruthless eyes to flash in surprise when she saw that the same petite girl from before was now standing blushing before her as she pulled her face away from her uniformed breasts.
It was her! It was the same girl that she ran into earlier in the morning!
And then her strict eyes glanced down at the now cowering girl while she once again took in the girl's lovely face.
"You again! Watch where you are going, peasant!" Azula barked in a tyrannical voice while she exhaled fire from her nostrils.
Only to find herself watching with great delight in her eyes when the girl dropped into a hurried bow at the hip.
"S-sumimasen, Princess!" Elle cried out as her heart raced wildly while the much taller girl gazed in judgement down at her.
"Whatever. Get out of my way, commoner." Azula snorted as she coldly swatted the girl aside while she paid no mind to the hurt look in the girl's eyes.
As she tried to tell herself that the girl wasn't adorable.
"B-but…but Princess I thought that you…wanted to see me?" Elle stammered meekly as she averted her eyes bashfully when the princess's amber golden eyes widened in disbelief.
And it was in that moment that the princess realized that her secret admirer was this very commoner girl!
"You? You're Elle? You're the one that sent the poems and fire lily?" Azula questioned in an incredulous voice while she turned around to gaze back at the grudgingly cute girl.
To think that her secret admirer was this little foreign commoner girl!
As she watched with renewed interest in her harsh eyes when the younger girl began to adorably twiddle her thumbs.
"T-that's…that's so, Your Highness." Elle admitted with a gulp while Azula eyed her with unbelievably dominant amber golden eyes.
They were eyes that made her heart flutter.
It was only then that she noticed that the young woman was now looming over her with her callous eyes staring back down at her.
While her cheeks turned red when she noticed that her face was once again staring right back at the woman's flawless chest.
"Interesting. Zuko is usually the one with a crowd of commoner fan girls. But I suppose there is a first for everything." Azula remarked dryly with her fist under her chin while she gazed down at the shorter girl's quivering face in amusement.
Her controlling amber golden eyes enjoyed the way that the girl remained in a bow with her head bent in a show of reverence.
"Am…am I in trouble?" Elle asked in a timid voice while she swallowed nervously as the older girl smirked deviously over her.
"That depends on if you displease me, commoner. I am not an easy woman to please, and even more difficult to satisfy romantically. For your sake I can only hope that you don't disappoint me." Azula commented with her arms arrogantly folded over her breasts while she gazed tauntingly down at the adorable girl's excited face.
Only for her pleased smile to grow even larger when the girl swiftly bowed once more.
And that was all it took for her to decide that she already liked this one.
"Yes, Princess!" Elle replied as she smiled shyly up at the beautiful royal girl while Azula curled a finger underneath her smiling chin.
And not a second later she sprang to her feet in attention when the young woman arrogant snapped her fingers over her.
"Come, peasant." Azula ordered in a controlling voice as she waved her hand over her shoulder as if she was calling a dog to follow her.
Only to gaze out of the corner of her domineering eye in delight when she saw that the girl was already scampering after her on command.
"To where, Azula-sama?" Elle piped up in an adorably reverent voice while the princess smiled even wider.
Now that the princess just adored.
The girl just called her Azula-sama.
"Out for coffee." Azula stated in a tone of absolute authority as she walked beside the petite girl with her dominant eyes gazing down at the girl's excited face.
"F-for coffee! We're going out for coffee?" Elle exclaimed in a thrilled voice as she skipped alongside the taller girl while the princess rolled her eyes above her.
"I just said as much did I not? Don't make me repeat myself, Elle. That displeases me." Azula snorted with her fingers curling up underneath her chin while she eyed the younger girl in interest.
She wouldn't deny that the girl really was cute.
To be perfectly honest she was worried that the girl would turn out to be unsightly.
And yet the girl was far from it.
Dare she say it…that she would say that this commoner girl was…beautiful?
"Yes, Princess! Out to coffee we go!" Elle chirped as she swooned with a hand on her cheek while the older girl gazed at her in amusement.
And with that the unlikely pair made their way to a coffee shop.
A half an hour later…
Azula sat at a table at her favorite coffee shop while she turned her head to watch her strange admirer get her order for her.
Her strict eyes observed the girl closely as she watched Elle scurry back over with the drinks in hand.
As her lips curved into a larger smile as she watched the girl in approval.
'Subservient, and adorable. I like that.' Azula thought as she nodded silently while she stared at the smiling girl as she carefully set her drink down before her.
It was then that she glanced down at the receipt with her amber golden eyes briefly flickering in surprise to see that the girl had paid for the drinks up front.
That completely took the girl by surprise.
Given that the girl was a commoner.
She had presumed that she would at least wait and see if she would pay for it at the end of their little 'meeting'.
"You bought the drinks?" Azula inquired with an elegantly raised brow while she gazed at the receipt with a pleased gleam in her eyes to see that it was ordered to her specifications.
"Mhm! I'm the one that initiated conversation. It would be rude if I didn't pay for the outing!" Elle cried out as she seated herself oppose of the young woman while the princess smirked in approval.
"I'm a princess, and you are a commoner. I'm rich and I can only presume that you are not. And yet you are going to buy me my food, and drink?" Azula pondered with a gratified edge to her purring voice while the lovely girl beamed at her form the other side of the table.
"That's so! I am indeed poor! I have very little money to my name." Elle informed in a carefree voice as she sipped at her drink while she smiled brightly back at the older girl's deadpan face.
And yet strangely enough.
Despite the girl admitting to be a low-class commoner she found that she couldn't help but still find the girl to her liking.
"Is that right? And you have decided to spend what little money you have on me? When I could pay for food, and drink a million times over, and not have it even put a dent in my pocket." Azula stated in a wry voice as she sat back on her bottom while she eyed the girl curiously.
She held her coffee in in her right hand as she took an elegant drink.
As her controlling eyes never once left her admirer's grudgingly lovely face.
Only for her amber golden eyes to stare back in surprise when the girl offered her a
"I don't want your money, Azula-sama. I just want to spend time with you. Your company is my only desire." Elle responded in a sweet voice while Azula gazed back at her in a taken aback silence.
While the princess sat there with her regal cheeks once again almost turning a slight shade of pink as she surveyed the commoner girl through the corner of her eye.
"You desire my company? It's obvious that you have a crush on me. Isn't that right, peasant?" Azula asked as she found herself leaning down with her arm resting on the table while she watched the younger girl swoon once more.
As she found herself almost twirling a perfect fingernail in her hair while she eyed her admirer with an increasingly possessive gaze.
"I-I do, Azula-sama. Y-you see…you make my heart flutter. Y-you're the most perfect woman there is. And…and I would really like to get to know you. T-that is if you want to get to know me too!" Elle blurted out as she averted her eyes from the young woman's speechless amber golden eyes.
Only for the princess to recover not even a moment after that when she let out a pompous scoff.
"Of course, I am. There is no woman superior to me. I am the grandest woman alive. But even so…it is good of you to remind me." Azula boasted as she leaned closer with her breasts touching the table while she smiled playfully at the girl's love-struck face.
As she took a slow purposeful drink of her beverage with her cold eyes still eying the younger girl in growing interest.
"I…I think so too. I-I'm head over heels for you, Princess. To me…you're a goddess." Elle confessed with an anxious swallow while Azula's crimson lips pulled into a wide smirk.
While she snuck an adorable glance at the older girl through the corner of her amber eye before she fearfully turned away from the young woman's tantalizing face.
"A goddess, am I?" Azula continued in a captivating voice as she once more found herself leaning in even closer.
Her stern eyes studied her decidedly lovable admirer with a flicker of a fond gleam in her cold gaze.
"T-the goddess of blue fire and the ruler of my heart." Elle stammered in an overwhelmed voice while the princess once again found herself trying to squash the blush on her cheeks.
"So…I take it that you want to go out on a date with me." Azula remarked with perfect poise in her voice while she gazed back at the girl with a thoughtful amber golden gaze.
Thus far she has had no luck with boys.
Her first kiss resulted in the coward nearly pissing his pants in terror of her dominant side.
And she has had just as little luck or interest in any girls at the university.
She couldn't help but ponder if this commoner girl might fit her tastes.
"M-more than anything in this world. But only if you would like to…" Elle trailed off as she nervously held her coffee cup while she watched the older girl lean even closer.
"What did you have in mind?" Azula purred in an enrapturing voice while she quietly mused that the girl was rather precious.
"Y-you really want to go out on a date with me?" Elle pondered in a spellbound voice while the princess rolled her haughty amber golden eyes.
"Obviously. If I didn't, I wouldn't be sitting here with you. Take note that I am rolling my eyes." Azula commented with a snort as she rolled her eyes once again while she took a refined swallow of her drink.
Her domineering eyes still surveyed the girl's excited face.
"M-maybe we could go see a movie together…" Elle suggested in a timid voice as she adorably avoided gazing in the powerful young woman's controlling amber golden eyes.
"Mhm. Oh, very well. I'll give you one, and I mean only one chance to take me out on a date tomorrow night at seven on the dot. But I warn you…I have high standards that you will have to live up to." Azula informed in a tone of absolute authority as she studied her lovely admirer with tyrannical amber golden eyes.
And curiously enough, the longer that she sat with the timid girl.
The more she felt the urge to take control over the girl's life.
And once more, if nothing else the girl will make for a lovely new plaything.
Only for her sadistic amber golden eyes to stare on in delight when she saw the girl bow her head in a show of respect in her seat.
"I won't let you down, Azula-sama! I swear I won't!" Elle cried out in a jubilant voice while the older girl took another prolonged swallow of her beverage.
Before the princess set it back down on the table.
And not a second after that the princess snapped her spoiled fingers while she pointed arrogantly back at the younger girl's worshipful face.
"Then you can start by going to buy me a refill." Azula ordered in a spoiled voice with her amber golden eyes flashing with sadistic glee while she watched the doting girl speedily leap to her feet.
She wasn't making the girl purchase her drinks because she wanted to save her money.
That would be laughable.
No. That wasn't what it was about.
It was about worship, and seeing just how deeply the girl revered her.
"Yes! Of course! As many as Her Highness commands!" Elle exclaimed in a mutually delighted voice while Azula smirked at her in approval.
And then she grabbed the cup and hurriedly walked off while the princess surveyed her back with a pleased gleam in her controlling amber golden eyes.
There was no doubt about it.
One way or another, this one was worth the fun to keep around.
Another half hour later.
"So…Elle. Do you live around here?" Azula questioned in a brilliant voice with her intelligent eyes gazing back at the girl's eager face.
As the younger girl smiled even more brightly after hearing the princess use her name for the first time!
"Not really! At least I haven't for very long. I just sort of ended up flowing here as I was passing through!" Elle chirped as she took a sip while she smiled shyly back at the older girl's deadpan face.
"Flow?" Azula asked with a regal snort while she set her elbow back down on the table.
She briefly mused that if she were to hit it off with the girl that Ty Lee was bound to like her.
"Yeah! I just go where the flow takes me. I don't really make plans. I'm like a butterfly in the breeze! I go wherever the wind takes me. And the flow has served me well. I know it has because it brought me to you." Elle explained in a cheery voice while Azula stared at her with blank amber golden eyes.
"It pleases me to know that you plan so far ahead." Azula stated in a wry voice that flew over Elle's head as she eyed the girl's smiling face curiously.
"Thanks! I try my best." Elle quipped as she took a cute sip of her drink while the older girl rolled her amber golden eyes.
"So, you don't have any family here in the Fire Nation? It's just you?" Azula inquired in a smooth voice while her amber golden eyes observed her admirer closely.
Only for her cold gaze to flicker with a sliver of bewilderment when she saw a flash of fear in the girl's amber eyes.
"No. At least I hope not. What about you, Azula-sama? Do you have any family around here?" Elle queried in a tone of upmost respect while the older girl stared at her calmly.
The princess held her cup in her hand as she sat back with her head resting against the booth.
All the while musing that she was fond of the way the girl called her 'Azula-sama'.
It was spoken with respect and deference in recognition of her authority.
And she decided that pleased her greatly.
"At the moment just Zuzu. The rest of my family is scattered throughout the country." Azula trailed off with her palm holding her cup while her callous eyes still stared intently back at the lovely girl's beaming face.
It was strange…
It was almost like every word that she spoke…made this girl…dare she say it. Happy?
It was curious indeed.
On the evening of the following day…
Zuko gazed back at his sister with a questioning look in his eyes when he saw her walk out with her bag over her arm.
Dressed up and with make up on her lips.
"Where are you going, Azula?" The prince questioned while his sister smiled as she ran her fingers through her hair.
"Simple, Zuzu. I have a date." Azula announced in a proud voice as she held her conceited head high with a pleased smile on her lips.
The brother now gazed back at his sister with an expression of pity for the unfortunate soul.
It was a widely known fact that his sister was a notoriously frightening date.
Azula has been out on multiple dates with both men and women.
And by the end of the night Azula left every single one of them cowering in terror!
"Tell whoever it is that they have my condolences." Zuko snorted with a small smirk on his lips while Azula spun around to glare daggers back at him.
"Please. You are not one to talk. If your pathetic relationship with Mai is anything to go by. Besides…I have a feeling that this one just may end up different than the rest. She is very submissive, and she obeys all my commands. She even calls me Azula-sama." Azula remarked in a pleased voice while she checked her smirking reflection in the mirror.
As her brother's amber golden eyes twitched in already aggravation.
"It sounds less like a date, Azula and more like you are auditioning for a new servant. Although, knowing you. It wouldn't surprise me if you didn't know the difference." The prince stated with another snort while his sister adjusted her hair in the mirror.
"She even told me that she sees me as a goddess." Azula informed with a self-important smile on her lips while she turned to gaze tauntingly back at her brother's repulsed face.
Before she haughtily walked past him after she mused that she had taunted him enough.
Just as she glanced at her phone to check the time before she started swiftly walking out.
"I must get going, Zuzu. My peasant admirer is waiting for her goddess. And it would be cruel of me to leave her hanging." Azula declared in a beyond arrogant voice while she walked down the stairs of their shared estate.
While the older brother glanced after his sister with his golden eyes expressing his disbelief once more.
A commoner? His stuck-up sister who looked down on commoners was going out on a date with a commoner girl?
He never thought that he would see the day that Azula would even remotely considered ever going out on a date with a commoner!
And soon after that the door closed shut while he shuddered as he shook his head.
He truly felt sorry for that girl.
It was a certainty that by the end of the night that Azula would tear her apart.
An extravagant sports car now drove down the street of the one of the humbler parts of the Fire Nation city.
Azula wrinkled her nose in an unhidden show of distaste as she gazed down to verify that she had the correct address.
Before she pulled up and parked her car while she scowled as she inwardly asked herself if she was truly about to go out with a lowly commoner girl.
Her cold-hearted instincts told her not to waste her time with a commoner of all people.
Only for her thoughts to then return to the many beautiful poems that the girl wrote for her and the flower that was left for her.
And yet…there was something about the girl that just clicked with her.
On top of all of that she didn't even seem to be after her for her money.
The princess pridefully shook her head as she turned her car off while she opened her car door.
'I'll give it one date.' Azula thought with her arms folded proudly over her bust while she locked her car with the push of a finger.
She began to walk with her stylish boots thudding on the ground.
As she cast a venomous stare at any of the commoners that happened to get too close to her.
"Move it!" Azula snapped as she almost pushed an unfortunate man to the ground with a wave of her arrogant hand.
She strutted with her head held as high as can be while she glared arrogantly out of the corner of her cold eye at the terrified faces of the common folk.
"Dirty peasants." Azula snorted in condescension as she glanced down at the piece of paper with the girl's address on it.
Apartment D.
Before she let out a snort as she shook her head once more while she strode with the aura of a queen.
Only to find herself pausing in her steps when she saw the girl waiting on the front porch.
Elle stood with her hair flowing gorgeously behind her wearing her best dress and her nicest blouse.
As she blushed when she turned her head to see that the tall young woman was now staring back at her with those entrancing amber golden eyes.
The princess was now wearing form fitting black and red dress clothes that hugged her body so perfectly that she couldn't help but let her jaw drop in awe.
While the older girl found that she was unable to resist glancing the girl over with her controlling amber golden eyes gleaming in approval once more.
'She…. she is lovely.' Azula thought with her strict eyes surveying the little blonde's adorably red face while she almost found herself smiling.
Only for her smile to grow while she stood with her arms crossed over her breasts while she watched the girl bow her head in respect.
That was another thing that she decided that she liked about this one.
She was courteous and she approved of that.
"Hello, Princess!" Elle exclaimed in a loveable voice while Azula smirked back at her.
"Hello, peasant." Azula spoke in a conceited voice that was just a tad less cruel than when she addressed the other commoners.
"I-I…I just wanted…to tell you that you look like a goddess descended to this earth." Elle blurted out in a love-struck voice as she kicked at an imaginary pebble while the princess smiled as widely as can be.
She listened to the all-encompassing sound of woman's boots striding across the pavement.
And then soon enough she found herself staring back up at the taller girl's flawless face.
"Tell me something that I don't already know…Elle. I trust that you are ready?" Azula remarked with a hand on her shapely thigh while she hungrily eyed her little date.
Only for her brow to raise elegantly when she saw that the girl was hiding something in her hands.
"I…I am. H-here, Princess. This is for y-you." Elle stammered as she held out her hand while she bashfully gazed away.
The older girl's amber golden eyes now widened when she saw that she was holding out another flower.
As the tiniest hint of a blush almost formed on her perfect cheeks as she reached out to accept the offering.
She held it in her hand as she gazed back at her young admirer's adorable face with her red lips curving upward in delight.
"Another flower? I approve of this tribute. From this moment forward you shall only give flowers to me. Never anyone else." Azula announced in a controlling voice as she gazed down at the shorter girl's meek face through the corner of her domineering eye.
"O-oh, Princess, I wouldn't even dream of giving a flower to anyone else…" Elle swooned as she twiddled her thumbs while she found herself savoring how the girl loomed over her.
While the royal girl still smirked smugly down at her with a hand curled up underneath her chin.
"Good. See to it that you don't. Because if you did…I would have to punish you, commoner. Now come! I have the perfect theater in mind." Azula spoke in a pompous voice as she snapped her fingers while she walked with boundless confidence in her step.
As she took great pleasure in how the girl immediately rushed after her heels like a love-struck puppy.
While she she subconsciously began to sway her round ass and full hips with every step that she took.
She strode with a pleased smirk on her lips as she enjoyed how the girl followed in a trance behind her.
As poor Elle found her amber eyes shamefully unable to gaze away from the young woman's perfectly swaying ass cheeks.
"Y-yes, Princess." Elle agreed in a dazed voice while she futilely tried to take her eyes off the woman's red clothed butt.
'Wow. What an ass! That's…. that's the most beautiful ass I have ever seen.' Elle thought with a lovable blush on her cheeks as she held her palm to her reddened face.
While the older girl still smiled confidently as she made her way to her car with her young date following closely at her heels.
As the commoners in the neighborhood stared on in awe at the sight of the ruthless princess walking with the foreign girl.
And not even a minute Elle let out a yelp when she collided into the older girl's tall back while she heard the sound of car being unlocked.
That was when her jaw dropped when she found herself staring out from behind the woman's back at the Ferrari parked before the apartment complex.
It even had a gloriously intricate Fire Nation insignia painted on the side!
"Woah! T-that's your car?" Elle sputtered in a stunned voice while Azula seemed to take pleasure in her reaction.
"It is only one of many." Azula answered in a bored voice as she opened the driver side door while she seated herself.
Only to turn her head in amusement when she saw that the girl was still standing there in a dumbstruck silence.
"Just get in, peasant!" Azula barked with a roll of her eyes while Elle speedily nodded her head.
And then Elle shakily hopped into the passenger seat while she gazed at the interior in marvelment.
As the princess gazed at her with a beautiful smirk on her lips.
"I confess that I find you to be an adorable little thing. Although I will forewarn you. That I am a dominant woman, and if by chance we do hit it off…I insist on being in charge at all times." Azula commented in a spoiled voice as she smugly checked her reflection in the mirror.
She savored the way that the girl continued to sneak adorable glances in her direction when she thought that she wasn't looking.
"H-hit it off?" Elle repeated with a fretful gulp while she held a dainty hand to her cheek.
As the young woman smirked back at her as she began to drive her car down the road.
"That's right, peasant. On the minuscule chance that I find this date to my liking…I will be controlling every aspect of your life from here on out. Do you think you can handle that?" Azula purred with her domineering amber golden eyes glancing back at the lovably gushing girl.
Only for her arrogant smile to grow when the girl swooned with a cute blush on her cheeks.
"Ooh, Azula-sama. There is nothing that I cannot handle for you." Elle gushed with an innocent smile about her reddened face while the older girl smiled at her.
"Good. It pleases me to hear it. Your obedience is a point in your favor…Elle. Let's see where tonight goes." Azula remarked with a refined sigh as she reclined in her car seat while her admirer hurriedly nodded her head.
As she found herself strangely enjoying the girl's innocent company.
And she couldn't help but muse that it felt pleasant…to be adored on such a pure level by another person.
'Perhaps…this one will be my girl.' Azula thought with her cold amber golden eyes momentarily almost flashing with a hint of long buried emotion.
Before she pushed it aside in favor of her usual stoic exterior while she turned on the radio.
As she drove with her amber golden eyes glancing down at her adorable date.
And for reasons that she couldn't explain she didn't say a word when the girl scooted just a little bit closer to her.
Perhaps this night would lead somewhere after all….
At the movie theater.
Azula stepped into the theater with her arms crossed over her breasts while Elle still swooned with stars in her eyes beside her.
As an unimaginably spoiled scowl graced the young woman's lips as she glanced around the theater in annoyance to see that it was packed.
Before she turned to gaze down at her petite date with her controlling amber golden eyes taking immeasurable joy in the girl's adorable love-struck behavior.
And then she reached out to seductively play a flawless fingernail under the girl's chin.
Elle now gazed up at her taller date with her amber eyes once again finding herself lost in the princess's domineering eyes.
As the older girl gazed at her with a refined smile gracing her lips.
"Go purchase two tickets for the Dragon and the Sword." Azula commanded in a voice of effortless control as she smiled deviously down at the submissive girl's numbly nodding face.
"T-two tickets for the Dragon and the Sword. Would…would you like anything to eat or drink, Princess?" Elle pondered in a spellbound voice while the older girl smiled in approval.
"I would like a cherry icee…and a bucket of fire flakes." Azula purred with her fingernail still brushing along her date's trembling cheek.
"A…a cherry icee and a bucket of fire flakes for Her Highness. Anything else?" Elle mumbled in a far-off voice while Azula grinned devilishly above her.
"No. That will be all, Elle." Azula answered in a perfectly refined voice as she removed her fingers from her younger date's cheek.
"It shall be done, Princess!" Elle exclaimed in an eager to please voice while the older girl smiled once more.
And then she stood there in a love-struck trance when the young woman gingerly reached out to pat her head like the princess would as if she was her dog.
And then she smiled once more while she turned to rush off toward the stand.
As the princess stared after her date with her cold eyes lingering on the back of the girl's head.
While she held a fingertip underneath her chin as she watched the girl pay for the entire order all by herself.
And that was when she came to the conclusion that the girl's worship of her wasn't feigned out of a desire to access her bank account.
It was true, genuine adoration.
And she couldn't help but muse that it truly pleased her to know that for once a date was not after her for her money.
It was yet another large point in her date's favor.
Minutes later Elle devotedly carried two ices and a bucket of fire flakes while the princess strode confidently beside her.
And then the princess even watched in approval when her date held open the door for her.
As she smiled down at the blushing girl as she strode in ahead of her.
Her ruthless eyes glanced about the theater in annoyance over all of the people that were present.
She listened to aggravating commoners talk to one another in their seats.
And then she loudly cleared her throat while her date peered at her in confusion.
Only for the princess's intimating voice to abruptly boom into the formerly peaceful air of the theater while her palms lit up with terrifying blue fire.
"Attention, peasants! This is your Princess Azula speaking! All of you get out! For the rest of this night this room is for the use of royalty only! All those that defy my order will be burned to ashes in the wake of my flames never again to rise above the ashes of your shame, and humiliation!" Azula bellowed with her beautiful face accented by her blue fire while the theater erupted into a terror-stricken panic.
As the younger girl gushed as she swooned in admiration beside her sadistically smiling date.
She watched from where she stood beside the princess as the theater patrons ran in a frenzy towards the exit in fear of drawing Azula's notorious wrath.
While Azula held her head even higher with her lips pursed in a megalomaniacal grin with her hands still burning brightly in azure fire.
And soon enough the entire theater room was empty save for herself and her petite date.
Only for her smirk to grow even larger when she turned to gaze down at the girl when the sound of innocent cheering resounded into the air.
"You go, Azula-sama! You take control of this theater!" Elle cheered with a sweet smile on her lips as she padded along beside the smirking woman.
And then the princess proudly plopped down on her ass in the front row while she reclined like a true queen.
While a spoiled smile still graced her lips as she gazed at her young date with her amber golden eyes trying to hide the sliver of fondness that she was starting to feel for the girl.
Only for her smile to grow even bigger when she watched the girl set her drink in her hand.
As she found herself once again nodding to herself in approval over her admirer's grudgingly adorable worshipful behavior.
"Good girl. Thus far I am very pleased with you, Elle." Azula purred with a refined smile on her lips while she eyed the blushing girl.
While the previews started to play on the screen before them.
"I-it makes me so happy to hear that, Princess. I want you to know that I strive to make you happy." Elle stammered with a shy smile on her lips while she set the bucket of fire flakes on the arm of the older girl's chair.
Only to find herself gazing on with transfixed amber eyes when the older girl patted the seat beside her.
"I can see that, Elle. Take a seat…the movie is about to begin." Azula remarked in her usual confident voice while she watched her younger date plop down beside her.
And then the movie started to play while Azula held her icee in her right hand as she began to regally sip it.
Only for her amber golden eyes to glance curiously to her date when she felt the girl timidly place her hand on her sleeved arm.
"C-can I…can I…hold your hand, Princess?" Elle asked in an unbelievably bashful voice as she gazed downward while Azula's brilliant amber golden eyes gazed back at her in surprise over her request.
And for the briefest of instances the princess's cold eyes flickered with a hint of some unseen emotion.
And somewhere deep within the young woman's cold heart she couldn't help but feel moved that the girl wanted to hold her hand.
"I will permit it." Azula responded with something akin to a sliver of a fond smile on her lips while watched the younger girl shyly reach out to take a hold of her left hand.
And then the mighty princess reclined in her seat with her hand linked with the commoner seated beside her.
She sipped at her beverage with her cold eyes still gazing down at her adorable date with an increasingly favorable gleam.
As she found herself enjoying the way that the girl smiled in admiration up at her.
"Arigatou gozaimasu…for coming with me, Azula-sama." Elle whispered in a beyond grateful voice as she sat there with her amber eyes gazing up at the older girl's stoic face.
"Of course, peasant…if nothing else this should make for an interesting night." Azula spoke in an unusually subdued voice while she lounged in her chair.
And for reasons that she couldn't explain.
She found herself clutching the younger girl's hand in her own while she smiled at the movie screen.
As her lovely date began to watch the movie alongside her with a serene smile on her lips.
Later on, into the movie.
Azula chewed on a handful of fire flakes with a strangely content expression on her strict face.
She now sat in her theater seat with her date resting against her tall shoulder.
As she allowed the girl to grip her arm with her palm still resting over Elle's own.
While the princess turned her head to smile over her shoulder at the adorable girl latched onto her toned arm.
'She truly is a pretty little thing. I could get used to having this one all to myself.' Azula thought as she swallowed her fire flakes with her cold amber golden eyes reflecting a newfound possessive gleam.
As Elle smiled happily from where she sat with her face propped up on the princess's muscular arm.
While the princess placed her hand over her young date's own once more.
And it was in that very moment as Azula gazed down at Elle through the dimly lit movie theater that she decided that she wanted to pursue further dates with the girl.
Two hours later.
Azula drove back with her date almost passing out against her arm while her cold eyes gazed down the road ahead.
As she continued to steal glanced down at the girl through the corner of her callous eye.
Before a scowl soon returned to her lips when she found herself gazing at the commoner district once more as it came into view.
And that was when she realized that if she truly were to become an item with this girl.
There was no way she could accept her girlfriend living in any standards that were less than her own.
And then it wasn't too long after that her car pulled to a stop.
She swallowed in conflict as she sat in her seat with her young date falling asleep on her.
For the most fleeting of moments she considered just taking the girl back to her college estate that she and her brother stayed in while they were attending semester.
Only to force herself to push the thought aside as she cleared her throat while she gently shook the mumbling girl awake.
And then Elle sat up while she rubbed adorably at her eyes while the older girl gazed down at her.
"Sumimasen…. I didn't realize that I fell asleep on you, Princess." Elle muttered as she smiled once more while the young woman waved it off.
"We're back at your place." Azula announced in a hesitant voice as she gestured out the window.
Only for the younger girl's smile to fall as she realized that the wonderful night was finally at its end.
"Oh…. right." Elle answered as she sat up with her amber eyes turning to glance out the window.
Azula frowned as she gazed back at the girl almost feeling like she was regretting waking her up.
"I think that it is best…" Azula began in a prideful voice with her icy eyes staring at the back of her date's golden head.
As Elle sat in silence with her heart racing a thousand miles an hour in anticipation of the older girl's verdict.
What was really only a few seconds in time.
Somehow felt like an eternity to her.
As she attempted to brace herself for the older girl to tell her that she didn't want to see her again.
"That we go on another date." Azula remarked in a stoic voice with her lips pursed into a lovely scowl while Elle turned to gaze back at her in delight.
"Really! You want to go out on another date?" Elle sputtered in a thrilled voice while her heart almost leaped for joy.
"I do. I…had a good night. And I…would like to do it again." Azula grumbled in a cold voice as she tried to keep up her ruthless composure under the girl's adorable gaze.
"So, did I! It was one of the best nights of my life, and I would love to do it again, Azula-sama!" Elle cried out in an ecstatic voice as she smiled softly up at the princess's beautiful scowling face.
"I…was thinking that I could take you out to dinner this Friday. I'll buy. What do you say?" Azula stated with her callous eyes turning to gaze over her shoulder at the wall of her car.
She fiddled with her sleeve as the younger girl's face broke out into an elated smile.
"I say yes! I'll go out with you on Friday night!" Elle shouted in a joyous voice while she beamed up at the young woman's almost smiling face.
Only to find herself blushing when she watched the princess lean over the arm of the car.
And then she sat in silence when a warm hand reached out to touch her cheek.
As she sat there with her heart beating rapidly while Azula's taller form bent down with her hand cupping her cheek.
She gazed up into the princess's entrancing amber golden eyes as the woman continued to lean in closer.
And for a passing instant the princess's lips pulled into the barest hints of a smile.
While she stared into her younger date's love-struck amber eyes as she leaned in to place a kiss on Elle's delicate cheek.
As her admirer sat with her face blushing adorably as she neared the girl's cheek.
She exhaled warm breath against Elle's skin that sent a shudder down the girl's spine.
Only for the princess to abruptly pull back away from the smaller girl's blushing face before her lips could touch Elle's cheek.
As Elle sat there with the most adorable smile on her lips as she held a swooning hand to her cheek.
"Goodnight, Elle. I'll see you Friday." Azula spoke up at long last in a dignified voice as she stared back at the smiling girl through the corner of her callous eye.
As she tried as hard as she could to kill the slight blush that now adorned her proud cheeks.
Just when a soft hand lowered over her own while she gazed down into the girl's warm amber eyes.
"You as well, Azula-sama. I…I look forward to it." Elle replied with a blissful smile on her cheeks while she opened the car door.
And then she took a step out while she turned to smile back at the seated young woman one last time.
While Azula gazed back at her with a cold stare that would scare away almost any other man or woman.
But not her.
Because she could tell that the young woman liked her back.
And then she closed the car door without speaking another word.
As she still smiled back at the ruthless princess's divine visage through the darkened window.
The princess met her gaze with the slightest hint of a smile almost forming onto her lips.
And then not a second later she watched the car drive down the road.
As she turned to walk back to her apartment with her bag over her shoulder.
While she found that she just wasn't able to stop smiling.
"She likes me! She really likes me!" Elle exclaimed all to herself as a joyful tear fell from her excited amber eye.
And then she ran with a newfound skip in her step to the staircase.
As she laughed happily all to herself.
While the princess drove away with her cold eyes gazing down the road.
As she finally allowed a smile to form onto her lips.
And curiously enough…she was actually looking forward to seeing Elle again.
AN:
The Dragon and the Sword was just a random movie title that I came up with that has no relation to any movie or series that may already have that name.
