So I decided to create this story, just because I was inspired to right another multi-chaptered story of these too. I really should be continuing my LoZ one, but hey, I can't ditch LoK just yet. Hope you like it!

All in all, Korra never really had that one 'click' so stay with. She was really all over the place with her personality; from jocks, to band geeks, to the 'popular' people. But she never stayed in one place for too long. She's decided the 'in crowd' is like a freezer after a mile jog; at first, it feels nice. But after a while, it starts to get cold and you need to step out again in order to get sweaty from running again. People call her the 'surfer', who surfs from one wave of people to another with ease. She had friends from all over, all because her personality was just as it was: adaptable. She could play sports rather well, but also was smart enough for the nerds, and weird enough for the others, as well as had a musical talent to fit in with the band, and cool enough to hang out with the popular gang. She closes her locker with a sigh; the only down side to her personality is no one ever cares deeply enough for her. She doesn't have a best friend anymore, since they moved while she was young and she had to learn to adapt. So, she can only counsel herself through the stressful parts in her life. "Hey Korra!" A group of girls from her bending class giggled and waved, and Korra responds with, "Hi ladies. Heading to lunch already?" She asks, and they all giggle again. "Of course! Do you want to come with today?" One girl asks, and Korra's sure her name is Ursa, with a smile on her face and a light blush. Ah, there it was. The famous blush. It makes Korra laugh, really. Supposedly every girl has eventually had a crush on her. "Not today, I'm afraid. But some other time?" Korra winks and slides her bag on her shoulder, closing her locker and giving another dazzling smile before walking off to the cafeteria. The group giggles yet another time and Korra can hear, "You should ask her out, Ursa!" said from one of Ursa's friends, and she can hear the girl hiss the words, "Shut up!" Before they walk the opposite way of the water tribe girl.
"Korra, are you still struggling with math?" Korra sits at her lunch table with her school friend Bolin as she grunts and runs a hand through her bangs to move them from her eyes and looks distraught at the papers that fill the table. "Can I honestly say yes?" She answers Bolin's question as she plays with the earbud embedded in her ear blaring 'Red Hot Chili Peppers'. Bolin laughs at her, "Well you're in luck!" He says while clapping his hands in excitement before he continues, "Because I am the best friend ever, I have found you, a tutor." He grins wildly, and Korra raises a brow in annoyance. "What?" Bolin has found her yet another tutor? "I found you a tutor! Her name's Asami. She's pretty cool." Korra scowls, "I know her. She's in my English class." She states, her eyes looking upwards in memory. "Look, that's really sweet of you Bolin, but-"Bolin frowns and interrupts her, "Korra, it's Senior year. If you fail math, you won't be able to graduate. Just do it, okay?" He asks her, and blue eyes roll, "Fine, I'll do it. When do we start?" She asks as she grabs at her backpack, unzipping it and popping a sucker in her mouth from within it. "Um, today. After school at your place?" "Bolin!"
"Wait, Korra?" Asami looks up from her yoga mat at her partner. "Yeah. I'm going to tutor her." Her friend laughs, hard, and sits down next to her. "Good look with that." Asami frowns in confusion as she switches into another yoga form. "What's that supposed to mean?" she asks, and her friend smiles. "Haven't you heard? Korra is totally a distraction when it comes to tutoring. And the good type of distractions." Her friend winks and Asami blushes, "I don't know what you're talking about." But that was a lie; Asami knew exactly what her companion was explaining. Korra did have that flirtatious attitude, and was friendly to everyone. Even to her when she accidently bumped into in the hall. Asami wanted to just fall to her knees when Korra immediately turned around and apologized while looking dead at Asami, with her dazzling smile and bright blue eyes. "Whatever, you know exactly what I'm talking about. Everyone had a crush on her Asami." "Maybe I don't." Her friend raises a brow at her, and Asami shakes her head with a blush, "Fine! Maybe I do! So what?" she asks and her friend lets out a sigh before setting down and cranking her head to her friend, "Look. I'm just saying that it's gunna be hard for you to tutor when she's staring at you with those azure eyes of hers. And almost every girl is out for her." Her friend says with a click of her tongue as she moves into the next pose. "I think I'll be able to control myself. I doubt we'd have anything in common anyway." Answers Asami, her body bending beside her friend.
"Korra! Your tutor is here!" Korra grunts in her gaming mic as she moves it to speak, "Send her down!" She moves the mic back to her mouth and grunts again as she smashes the buttons on her controller. "Move to the left Bolin, you're in my way!" She states, and hears his voice in her ear. "Sorry! Mako is yelling at his girlfriend again and it's really distracting!" Korra sighs. Mako and his temper is always getting in the way. "Uh! We can't get past this level! They keep attacking us everywhere we go!" "Scale the walls." Korra jumps as she feels a body plop on the couch next to her. "Wha-what?" Asami folds her arms next to Korra, "You have to scale the walls. There's less guards up there." Korra raises a brow as her face pulls into a grin. "You play video games?" She asks, and Asami nods with a similar grin, "Yup. Scale the walls." Korra keeps her grin as she shifts on the couch, "Alright Bolin, you heard the pretty lady. Scale the walls." Asami can't help but to blush at what Korra calls her. No! She's supposed to just be her tutor. But since when did Korra play video games? She didn't seem like the type that did.
"Thanks Asami. We were stuck on that level forever!" Korra laughs and slides to the table where Asami sits. "You're welcome. I thought I would help a little." She manages to keep her blush down and smile at Korra. Korra blinks for a minute. No blush. That signature blush that she gives everyone isn't on this girl. For some reason, that makes Korra happier. "Alright, so this math?" Korra groans and sets her math book on the table. "Uh, math." Asami chuckles, "It's really not that bad. You're probably thinking too much about it." Korra's eyes widen as she puts her palms on the table, "That's the thing! I don't know how NOT to over think it." She states seriously, but that causes Asami to laugh aloud. Korra pouts, "Hey, what's so funny!" Asami wipes the tears from her eyes, "I'm sorry ha- It's just-ha- your face was so cute!" She starts up laughing again, and Korra suddenly feels her face burn up. When has it ever been someone else making her blush? "Alright, Ms. Sato. Let's not get too carried away. It's only our first tutoring session after all." She says and flashes her dazzling smile at Asami, who in turn coughs from her laughing transition. "O-OH, no. I hope you don't think I'm here just to get in your pants." She waves her hands around in a mocking-like manner, which causes Korra to flash her a playful look. "Okay, let's just get this over with."
"Welp, seems you've got the hang of the homework. I'll come back tomorrow to help you with your new assignment." Asami smiles at Korra, who frankly, looks a bit mentally exhausted. "Alright." Replies Korra with a moan as she rubs her temples. "Oh, wait, Asami?" Korra catches Asami's wrist before she begins walking to the door. Her heart jumps, and she looks back to see Korra staring at her. "Yes Korra?" Korra actually fidgets in her seat, until she looks back up, "If you want, one of these days we could play video games together, ya know? Just tell me when you wanna." Korra states with a small smile, and Asami smiles wide. "I'll keep that in mind. But I get to pick the game." Korra raises a brow, before she grins and holds up her hands. "Yes Ma'am."
School is horrific as usual, all except for Korra's math teacher who seemed impressed by her understanding on the latest homework assignment. She reminds herself to thank Asami later tonight. She shuffles down the hall, her bag hanging off her shoulder loosely and her hand occupied with a drink from Arby's. She meets up with Bolin at his locker. "Hey Bo." He shuts the locker and smiles wide as he's met with Korra sipping her drink of Mountain Dew, the soda mixture she drinks everyday. "Oh, hey lover gal." Korra frowns in confusion, "What're you talkin about Bolin?" She asks, and he shakes his head. "Please, you're totally into Asami! I heard it when we were playing video games after school yesterday." Bolin says with a wave of his hand, and Korra's face turns into a full blown blush. "You creep! I don't have a crush on Asami, Bolin! She's just my tutor. Now let's go to class before you cause any more trouble." She states and rolls her eyes, walking past him while he tries to catch up. Right then Korra bumps into someone, knocking their books from their hands, only to have Korra grab them with quick reflexes. "I'm so sorry! OH, Hey 'Sami." Korra acts cool as she's met with those familiar green eyes. "Korra! Ha, you're always running into me." Asami says as she fixes the books in her arms. "And I swear it's always you!" Korra laughs while rubbing the back of her neck, to which Asami giggles. "I know! Hey, I'll see you tonight for a gaming marathon?" She smiles at Korra, and Korra is being pulled away from Bolin when she yells from the end of the hall, "DUH!"
