Hey guys! It feels so good to be writing again! I've gone through a lot recently, but I'm feeling so much better and I kinda missed writing. I made a new story because what happened on my other one was a not so fun experience. But I'll try my best to write a chapter every day.

Chapter 1 - Jealousy

I was training on Air Temple Island, like Tenzin told me to. But I couldn't focus when I heard Meelo and Ikki running around screaming like little kids. I sighed out of frustration and went to my room to shower. I undressed and got in the shower, feeling the cold water hit against me. I washed my hair and dried it when I was out of the shower when I heard a knock on my bedroom door.

"I'm in the bathroom! Feel free to come in and sit down." I said, thinking it was Tenzin or Pema coming to talk to me. I got dressed quickly and walked out of the bathroom only to see Mako sitting on my bed. I paused for a second, then walked over to my dresser while brushing out my hair.

"Hey Korra. I hope it's fine that I'm here." Mako said, standing up and walking over to me.

"It's fine. What do you need?" I said while I looked at him in the mirror as he came up behind me.

"I was wondering if you wanted to go out with Asami, Bolin and me tonight. Only if you want to." He said, smiling and his amber eyes dancing.

"Uhm, sure. Where are we going?" I said yanking the brush through my hair to get the tangles out.

"Just to Narook's for some water tribe food. Want me to help brush out your hair?" He said as he watched me struggle to brush my hair.

I surrendered and handed the brush to Mako, letting out a sigh as he started to brush out my hair.

"I feel like a child!" I said with laughter as he continued to brush out my hair.

"Well, little Korra, stop moving or it'll make your hair more tangled." Mako said as he grabbed my shoulder to hold me still. He brushed through my hair until it was all untangled. "Here you go." He said as he handed my brush back to me. I pulled my hair back and put it up in it's usual ponytail.

"Thanks." I said to Mako, putting the brush down and turning to face him.

"No problem. We're leaving soon so I'll meet you at the docks." He said as he left the room in a hurry.

I followed him out of my room, shutting the door behind me and walked to the docks. I looked around to see if Mako was anywhere, and of course, he was with Asami, already at the docks. He had his arm wrapped around her waist and her head was on his shoulder. Mako made it clear that he didn't like me that way, but I couldn't help getting jealous. I started walking faster to get to the docks and go to Narook's. At least Bolin would keep my company.

"Hey Korra! You ready to go?" Asami asked me, smiling.

I nodded and walked onto the boat that had just arrived as I got here. I sat down at the bow of the boat, looking at Republic City.

"Hey, Korra." Bolin said as he sat down next to me.

"Hey." I said, turning my head to see him. Bolin's hand reached over to mine and entwined his fingers between mine. I smiled at Bolin then turned back to look at the city as we got closer to it.

After a few minutes of staring at the city, I looked at Mako and Asami. Mako was staring at me and Bolin holding hands while Asami whispered something in Mako's ear while pointing at me and Bolin. I let go of Bolin's hand, standing up and walking over to Asami and Mako.

"Something you wanted to say to me, Asami?" I asked, putting my hands on my hips.

"Oh! Nope. Nothing at all." She said, her jade eyes getting wider.

I rolled my eyes and walked back over to Bolin, sitting down again and crossing my arms.

"What was that all about?" Bolin asked.

"Nothing." I mumbled as the boat pulled up to the dock. I stood up and stomped my way off the boat and walked by myself to Narook's. I was ahead of the group when I heard footsteps coming up behind me.

"Korra! Wait up!" I heard Mako say behind me. I stopped where I was and turned around to face Mako. I crossed my arms while I waited for Mako to come up to me.

"Yeah?" I asked, tilting my head so I could see Asami and Bolin walking.

"What was all that about?" Mako asked me.

"None of your business." I replied angrily.

"Come on Korra, you can tell me." He said, putting his hand on my shoulder.

"Leave me alone." I said, shaking his hand off my shoulder. I turned around and continued walking to Narook's.

"Korra, wait a second." Mako said, grabbing my arm and holding me back.

"Let go of me Mako!" I shouted. I immediately regretted shouting because I could feel the eyes of the people on the street staring at me. I could feel the tears welling up inside me. I pulled away from Mako and ran at full speed ahead, heading to Republic City Park.

I sat down at the pond and looked at the fish swimming around, wiping away the tears that rolled down my face. I waterbent some of the water to distract myself from what had just happened. Hours passed, people walked by and looked at me, but I didn't say a word. I was focusing on the water I was bending. The sun was setting when I heard someone walk up behind me.

"There you are, Korra. I've been looking for you for hours." Mako said behind me.

"Go away." I said, keeping my head down and focusing on the water.

"Talk to me, Korra. Please." He pleaded.

I shook my head, dropped the water, and turned to face Mako.

"Why should I? Go back to Asami." I said, tears falling down my cheeks again.

Mako reached his hand up and wiped the tears off of my face. I pulled away and shook my head.

"Korra.. Don't do this..." Mako whispered, leaning his head closer and closer. He pulled my head up by my chin and kissed me ever so softly.

I wrapped my arms around Mako's neck as he wrapped his around me waist. I kissed him back until I heard an angry Asami shout.

"What are you doing Mako?!" She screeched.

Mako pulled back and I took off for Air Temple Island. As I was running away I heard Mako and Asami shouting at each other. This is all my fault! I told myself as I ran.

I got to the docks before the boat so I decided to waterbend my way there. I jumped in the water, propelling myself towards Air Temple Island. In the distance, I could hear Ikki and Meelo screaming and laughing.

I reached the beach and ran up into my room, getting changed into pajamas and got into bed. I laid in bed, trying to go to sleep, but I couldn't. There was too much on my mind so I got up, put my shoes on, and walked to the training area. I worked on firebending first, then earth, then water. I did this for hours without getting tired. I heard once again, footsteps behind me. This time I turned around, but it wasn't Mako behind me, it was Asami. I turned back around and continued to bend, but switching to fire again.

"Korra, we need to talk about Mako." She said, getting right to the point.

"There is nothing to talk about." I said as I shot a fireball at one of the targets.

"I'm being serious, Korra!" Asami said angrily.

I stopped bending and walked away from Asami, leaving her in the dark night and waking back to my room and went to sleep.

I woke up to the sun shining in my eyes from my window. I covered my face with my hands as I moved out of the rays of the sun. I walked over to my dresser and changed into my everyday clothes and brushed out my hair, putting it up like usual.

I left my room and skipped breakfast, not caring that Tenzin would get mad at me. I had to talk to Mako so I went to the docks and got on the boat pulling up. Sitting down at the bow of the boat, I looked at Republic City. Specifically the Pro-Bending Arena. I had my eyes on it the entire trip there. The boat docked and flew off the boat, running with all my power to the Pro-Bending arena. I ran up the stairs, to the top, where I knocked on Mako's door and waited.

Mako opened the door, looking tired and was just in shorts and a white tank top. He looked so different when he was at home.

"May I come in?" I asked.

"Oh.. Uhmm, yeah. Make yourself at home." Mako said, moving out of the door frame and letting me inside.

"I wanted to talk about what happened with you and me." I said, sitting down on the floor with my legs crossed.

"What about us?" He asked.

"You kissed me."

"Oh, you remember that?" Mako said, blushing.

"Yeah. I do." I said as Mako sat down next to me.

He leaned towards me and kissed me, the same way as he did the day before. I kissed him back too, wrapping my arms around him. All the thoughts about Asami left my mind, and for the first time, I could just relax.

So, this is the end of the chapter! Hope you liked it and please review! It encourages me to write more (not that I need it anyways) Thanks guys! You're the best! Hopefully a new chapter tomorrow, but I can't promise. I might have to do something because it's my brothers birthday.
