"Dammit," the groggy earth bender mumbled. "Go back to sleep, Bolin," he said to himself. "You need to find out what happens next."
He rolled onto his side, closed his eyes, and tried his best to drift off into a deep slumber, but failed. He couldn't quite remember what had happened in his dream. All he was able recall was him and Mako bickering over who was getting what at the small diner in the Southern Water Tribe compound, and then totally forgetting Mako's existence after seeing the angelic figure.
That was it.
He could not, for the life of him, remember any details about this mystery person.
Right when he thought he was getting comfortable, he felt a small paw rest on his cheek. Bolin opened his eyes just enough to see a blurry vision of his beloved fire ferret. "I love you, Pabu. But there are just some times where I should be left alone to sleep." The red furred creature didn't seem to care, for he kept pawing at his owner's face, wanting to be fed. "Fine," he exasperated.
He slowly got up off the bed and went to the wardrobe. Most of his things were left in Republic City; they were currently at the Southern Water Tribe compound and have yet to go back because they knew that they wouldn't get the warmest of welcomes. Today was one of the first days that the team could actually relax, despite what was going on.
He slipped on his usual wear and headed out of the room, which he and his brother shared, with Pabu. They went towards the bathroom and found it in use. Bolin, still half asleep, was somewhat upset by this and just banged his head against the door and kept it there.
"I'm almost done, Bolin," a familiar voice rang out.
"How did you know it was me?"
"I've been your brother for how long?"
He was caught off guard when the wooden door he was leaning against was pulled away from him. He stumbled onto his older sibling. "I love you, Mako," he said while his brother was holding him in the awkward position he caught him in.
"Good morning, sleeping beauty." Mako couldn't help himself but chuckle at Bolin's mussed up hair and the dark circles under his eyes.
Bolin would have punched him in the shoulder, but he was far too tired to do so.
"I'm starving," he whined. Pabu purred in agreement.
"Well, Korra is going to be training with Tenzin all day," he said while gently pushing his younger brother off. "And Iroh and Asami seem to only be interested in each other."
"Wait... does this mean-"
"Yes."
"AWWW YEAH! MAKO IS TAKING ME OUT TO BREAKFAST!"
Mako rolled his eyes and stepped out. "You better be ready in five minutes or we're not going."
"Don't you worry, big bro! We'll be ready in four!" he yelled down the hall.
Quick Author's Note:
This is my first ever fanfiction, so pretty much any feedback would be great. I also would have wrote more, but it's 2 in the morning and I have somewhere to be tomorrow. Any who, I hope you liked it this far.
