Mako and Asami
Disclaimer: i do not own character's of Legend of Korra
Asami's POV
The first time they met, she knew that he liked her. Even if she had accidentally hit him with her moped . She did'nt care that he was a firebender or poor, she just knew that she kinda liked him too. Initially, he was angry at her due to her lack of attentiveness to other people on the road, but immediately forgot his train of thought the moment he laid eyes on her. When she invited him to go on a date to 'make it up' to him for the incident, he gladly accepted, love-struck. Their relationship hit off immediately and they spent a lot of time together. Although she knew her father wouldn't accept him due to his hate for benders, she didn't care. She supported him during his pro-bending matches and sponsored for the fire-ferrets. She was always there to congratulate him at the end of the match. She loved that he cared to make time to go on dates with her father was arrested after it was proven that Hiroshi Sato was working with the Equalists, Mako comforted her and encouraged her to continue her father's business confidently. His awkwardness, the way he cares for her and seriousness at the right time, those little things about him, she loved.
Then Avatar Korra came in. At first she didn't mind, Mako barely paid attention to her and Korra was her friend. As time goes by and Mako accepts Korra's help to find the his brother, they start spending more time together. Korra joined the Fire Ferrets and she knew something was going on between them. She sometimes catches Mako look at Korra longingly and sadly but pretends, she notices nothing.
Ikki told her that Korra liked Mako. She pretended that it may have been a joke. But ever since then, it had been eating her up on the inside and she started doubting their relationship. She wondered if he cared more for the avatar or for her. But she knew she was losing him. She and Mako were drifting apart and he spent less time with her. He only seemed interested in Korra. Their little interactions. When she drives, he doesn't sit beside her but instead sits with kora behind and lets korra go in first smiling at each other. They talked and laughed just like what she and Mako used to do. She just remains silent through all this and hopes that Mako will notice her silenceEverytime he is with Korra. But that never happens. He acknowledged her when Korra was around. Maybe she should feel bad for herself, she didn't fight for him. Of course she was jealous but what could she do. She knows she'll lose in the end. Korra is the avatar for spirit's sake. What has she to give him. She's not a bender like them and she cant protect him. It is only a matter of time till they break up.
After Lin Beifong busted her, Mako, and Bolin out of jail, Asami ran toward Mako, who asked if she was all right. Asami confirmed, and they kissed. However, after hearing of Korra's capture, Mako barely paid any attention to her. He was so desperate to find her and only focused on finding Korra. She tried to calm him down and say that they would findher and she'll be safe but he just yelled at her telling her that they are wasting time. Sometimes, she wondered if he remembered that he had a girlfriend and that girlfriend was her. She was hurt at his actions towards her but she doesn't let it out. She learns from Bolin that Korra and Mako had kissed, breaking her heart but chooses to stay silent about the subject. She knew that Mako cares too much to find kora to listen to her. So, she keeps her feelings bottled up.
When Naga returned with Korra on her back, Mako pushed Lin and Tenzin out of the way, demanding that they should "give her some space". He carried kora and walked passed everyone only focusing on Korra. She watched sadly as Mako carried Korra in his arms and told her how worried he was about her and how relieved he was that she was okay. Korra responded by telling him that she was okay, smiled, and rested her head against his chest. She is really upset and jealous by this but she just sighs.
