"Hi there, thanks for considering to read my writing ;) I'm totally new at this so please don't be too harsh, feedback would be very much appreciated though! Thanks :)


"It was damp outside when Korra woke up. She felt cold so she snuggled closer to Mako.

"Morning sweety" he said as he put his arms around her to warm her thin but strong body.

About half an hour later Korra stepped out of bed, feeling a bit nauseous. While swaying a little, she walked to the bathroom. Once inside she threw up.

Some time later Mako woke up, missing her presence. "Korra? Korra where are you?"

When he gained no answer he walked to the bathroom to see whether she was maybe taking a shower and therefore didn't hear him. When he entered the bathroom however, he found a shivering korra laying on the floor. Unconscious.

"Babe, what's wrong?" Mako exclaimed as he rushed over to his girlfriend.

"Korra wake up! What's wrong? Korra!"

At first Korra wouldn't respond and Mako started to panick. Luckily, after some carefull shaking, she slowly opened her eyes.

"How do you feel?" asked Mako.

"Could have been better, but I think I'll live."

"You don't look too good though. You're as white as a ghost, you're shivering, you're sweating."

Korra didn't feel like opening up to Mako about the real cause of her state yet, so she tried to dismiss the conversation by standing up as if nothing had happened. The sudden movement however earned her another wave of dizziness which would have caused her to hit the floor again if it weren't for Mako.

"Whoa easy there tiger. Let me help you back to bed."

"I'll be fine" was Korra's respons. Even though she wasn't entirely sure about that herself.

Once Mako had led her back to bed, she immediately fell back to sleep to awaken as much as two days later. This had Mako worried for a bit, but he figured Korra had been very busy with her avatar duties which hadn't earned her a whole lot of sleep, where upon she therefore had some catching up to do.

"Evening sweetie" said the brown haired boy.

"Evening? Did I sleep all day!?"

"Two days in fact.."

"No wonder I feel so hungry"

Mako jumped up right away to make her some soup and toast. "There you go."

korra gratefully accepted the bowl and the plate with toast. At first the food felt good, but too soon the tanned girl got paler and started feeling nauseous again. About tree seconds later she had to run into the bathroom to empty her stomach of the little she hadeaten. Mako rushed to her side and brushed the sticky hair out of her face.

"You should take a nice warm shower, it will make you feel better."

Even though she liked the sound of that, she couldn't even stand by herself let alone take a shower. As if reading her mind Mako said: "I'll help you. I'll hop in the shower you. That will does us both good" *winkwink*

This had Korra laughing and she agreed. Carefully, as if afraid of breaking her, Mako undressed his girlfriend and after that he took his own clothes of.

"Okay, are you ready?" said the now naked boy supporting the weight of the girl whose bones he could almost count. "Jeez Korra, you really should put some flesh on those bones."

"I know, I'm trying to. It's just that every time I eat something, I becomenauseous and I end up emptying my stomach again. But I'll be fine though, it just need some time."

Mako didn't seem entirely convinced, but he left it at that for the time being and decided to first let them take a shower. "Come, you're getting cold. I've got the water running."

Korra happily let Mako guide her, glad he didn't push it.

He gently soaped her in and dried her off afterwards. Normally she did not like it at all to be dependent on someone, she could take care of herself just fine. But in this case the little intimacy of his hands roaming her body felt really good.
