AN: So, even though no one asked for it, and I only thought of it the other day, I decided to make a sequel to 'A Girlfriend For Christmas'
This is only a short kinda introductory chapter so I hope you enjoy it :D Also I love hearing suggestions and what you guys think of this whole sequel idea
Enjoy the thing!
"Whoa, you're actually serious about this?" Bolin asked as he held a coffee mug to his lips
"The most serious I've ever been about anything" I replied after taking a sip of my own coffee. I smiled "I want to spend the rest of my life with her"
The smile on his face grew as he let out a high pitched squeal
I nearly choked on my coffee "Keep it down, Bo"
"Sorry" He composed himself "It's just it's not every day that your best friend tells you they want to ask their girlfriend to marry them" He still had a huge smile
It was infectious because now I was smiling just as wide as he was "It's crazy, isn't it?" I laughed a bit
"Totally off the freakin' wall!" he replied
We both laughed for a minute before turning slightly serious
"So how do I ask her?" The realisation of what I wanted to do suddenly dawned on me
Fuck
He raised his eyebrows and shrugged his shoulders before taking another sip
"Would Asami like it to be a big grand gesture? Or something more intimate? Should I take her on a vacation? She'd need to get time off work. What if she says no!? Oh mY GOD WHAT IF SHE SAYS NO? WHAT"-
He put his hand on my arm "Chill, Korra. We'll figure it out" He smiled reassuringly "No matter how you do it, she's going to say yes"
"You sure?" I needed the reassurance
"Most sure I've ever been! You two have been together forever" he took a final mouthful of his coffee
"Yeah I guess so" I let out a breath and calmed myself
"And I'm also sure Opal would be more than ecstatic to help you pick out a ring"
"Really? Good, because I want to make sure I get the perfect one"
"Bro, anything you pick out Asami will love it. I'm pretty sure you could slap a pile of shit onto her hand and she'd still say yes" He laughed
I punched him playfully "You tryina say my woman aint good enough for a ring? Huh?"
He laughed as well "You know what I mean, Korra"
I smiled "Yeah, I guess you're right"
"Always am!" He puffed out his chest
"Don't go getting too big for your boots Mr. Best Bridesmaid Man" I chuckled
"Mr. best Bridesmaid Man is exactly what I will live up to" he saluted
"Good to hear" I took the last sip of my coffee before asking for the bill
Myself and Asami have been together for three years since the 'pretend-girlfriend-for-christmas' incident. Three crazy years of ups and downs, but mainly ups. I graduated from college with my degree in Psychology and Asami's motor company, Future Industries, was doing better than ever.
We built lives for ourselves together and even though we still hadn't officially moved in with each other yet, not a night went by that we were apart (aside from business trips and I went on most of them with her anyway).
I've wanted to marry her for a long time and now that we're both settled in our careers and a little bit older and wiser I figured what was stopping us anymore?
I guess now just felt like the right time
I'm going to ask Asami to marry me by Christmas…
…fuck…
