A/N: This is two chapters. The first chapter is written in Mako's point of view of their first time and the second is written in Korra's point of view. I added an extra part in Korra's point of view that's not in Mako's to make it a little bit different. I hope you enjoy it! :)

Mako wasn't going to lie to himself and pretend that he wasn't nervous. But that doesn't mean he wasn't going to try. He had been thinking about this moment for weeks, no, months. Hell, if he was being honest, he had thought about it ever since he first laid eyes on Korra at the pro-bending arena.

He thought about how it would feel to touch her, to truly caress every inch of her body, from her thick, brown hair to her soft, smooth thighs…

Mako was getting all hot and bothered just thinking about it, thinking about her. He tried to push his thoughts out of his head. He had to keep getting ready. He wanted everything to be perfect before Korra got here.

He didn't think they were the type of couple to plan the night they were going to have sex for the first time, but his relationship with Korra never failed to surprise him.

With their busy schedules, they barely had enough time to see each other as it is. He was always staying late at the station, trying to crack a seemingly unsolvable case and Korra was usually on Air Temple Island, improving her airbending skills with Tenzin, Jinora, Ikki, and Meelo.

But this weekend they were both completely free of any other commitments but each other. When was the next time they would get an opportunity like this? They had to take advantage of it.

And so they decided that they would have sex. They had both been itching to do it. Well, Mako definitely had been. But he knew Korra wanted to do it too. When he'd touch her, she would shake under him and moan….

Mako had to stop. If he kept thinking like this he'd explode. He decided to focus on lighting the candles instead with his firebending.

He wanted to make this night as special and romantic as he could, so of course he thought of candles. He searched his apartment for them but was baffled when he couldn't find any. Surely, Bolin would have had some? He's had over enough girls to warrant them. But nope, there were none. So he went to the candle shop down the street and spent nearly half this week's paycheck on the finest candles the shop had.

He lit them carefully, breathing in their smell. The shop owner said they were an aphrodisiac, and he couldn't help thinking that she was right. Maybe that's why his thoughts kept turning to Korra, naked and underneath him, scratching at his skin, moaning his name…

Fuck. Get a grip!

Mako closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He needed to calm down, seriously.

When he finished lighting the candles, he started to place the rose petals he bought that morning around the room. He wanted it to be perfect, and it was. The candles gave the room a beautiful, rose-hued light and the petals made his old bed look extremely inviting.

He went to his bathroom and made sure things were in order. He had bought lube and condoms. He even purchased silk boxers, the expensive kind. Was all this too much? No… how could he think that? Nothing could be too much for Korra; she deserved the world.

He jumped when he heard the doorbell ring. She's here. He practically ran out of his bedroom and to the door. He fixed his scarf before opening up the door.

"Hi," Korra said softly. "I brought your favorite." She lifted up the bag of takeout food.

Mako didn't say anything for a second; he just took Korra in. She was wearing a dark blue dress that fit her unlike anything he'd ever seen before.

"I- I didn't know you owned a dress."

Korra felt her cheeks heat up. "Yeah, well, I borrowed one from Pema. Now, are you going to let me in or are you just going to keep staring at me like that?"

"Oh! Yeah, um, come in…" Mako opened the door wider and let her in. Fuck, was he messing this up already? Why was he acting so weird? It's just Korra. Just Korra.

Mako followed Korra to the kitchen where she began setting up the food.

"How was your day?" Mako asked, clearing his throat.

"Terrible. Tenzin picked today of all days for me to practice meditation. You know how much I suck at meditation."

"You're not that bad," Mako said as they took their seats across from each other at the small table.

"Yes, I am! I can never stop thinking. And today I couldn't stop thinking about tonight…"

"Is that so?" Mako said, amused.

"Wipe that fuckin' smirk off your face."

Mako swallowed his noodles and fought back laughter.

"It's okay, I've been thinking about you all day, too…"

"Is that so?" Korra said, copying Mako's tone and throwing his words back at him.

Mako rolled his eyes at his girlfriend.

"I thought we'd never get an opportunity to do this," he said seriously.

"I know," she agreed, "How did you manage to get Bolin gone for the whole weekend?"

Mako smirked. "I just told him the truth, and he was more than happy to spend the weekend with his friend."

"Mako!" Korra exclaimed, "You told him that we're having sex!"

Mako felt himself blush at Korra's bluntness. "Who do you think has been wanting me to set this up?"

Bolin had been encouraging Mako and Korra to go all the way for a long time. He was always saying how it would help relieve both of them of the stress they always seem to be under.

"How am I supposed to look at him again?"

"Korra," Mako put his chopsticks down and grabbed her hand. "He's my brother. I tell him everything, you know that."

"I know, it's just… I had to lie out of my ass to get this weekend."

Mako laughed. "What did you tell Tenzin?"

"That I'm staying with Asami for a girl's weekend."

Mako snorted. "And he believed that?"

"Pema was in on it, and he'll believe anything she says."

Mako smiled. "Imagine Tenzin finding out what you'll really be doing this weekend."

Korra bit her lip. "He thinks I'll be doing my nails, but I'll really be doing you."

Mako squirmed at the thought. He wanted to ditch the dinner and carry Korra to his bedroom.

"Should we clean the table up?" Mako said a little too quickly.

Korra laughed. "Yes."

And so the nervous couple put their barely eaten containers of food in Mako's refrigerator and his plates in his sink.

"Well," Mako said as he wiped his hands, "should we um, well, um, maybe, go-"

Mako couldn't finish his sentence because Korra started kissing him.

Mako's eyes widened in surprise, but he quickly recovered and started kissing Korra back.

"I want you to take me to your bedroom," she said, breaking their kiss.

Mako didn't hesitate. He scooped Korra up in his arms and carried her to his bedroom.

When he opened the door, he heard Korra gasp.

"Mako… this is beautiful…" Korra said as he placed her on the bed gently.

"You like it? I wasn't sure if candles were your thing, but, I mean, who doesn't like candles, right? So I figured I would buy them-"

"Mako, get down here and make love to me."

Mako had started pacing the room like he always did when he was nervous.

"Okay," he said, climbing on the bed and placing his knees on either side of her hips.

He put his hands on the side of her face and kissed her gently. He wanted to go slowly. They had all the time in the world.

Korra moved her hand over Mako's chest, loving the feeling of his muscles under her fingers. But the cloth of his shirt was in the way.

Mako rubbed his hands up her thighs, hiking her skirt up.

"Too many clothes." Korra broke off their kiss, "Mako, I want to take off your shirt."

Mako sat up and so did Korra. She unbuttoned his shirt hastily, wanting, no, needing to feel his skin against hers.

She slipped his shirt down and threw it across the room.

"Hey, that was expensive!" Mako teased.

"I don't care," Korra said, she just wanted him naked.

She then took off his scarf, but instead of throwing it across the room like the shirt, she leaned over and gently placed it on Mako's night table. She knew how important his scarf was to him.

Once Mako's chest was free of clothing, Korra began tracing his pale skin. She felt the grooves of his chest, the hardness of his muscles, the softness of his nipples…

Mako leaned in and kissed Korra softly. "I love it when you touch me like that," he breathed against her lips.

"Mmmm," Korra said softly.

"Take off your dress for me," he whispered.

Korra pulled away from him and reached for the bottom of her dress. She pulled it over her head and threw it across the room like she had with Mako's shirt.

Mako drank in the sight of her. She was completely naked; she hadn't been wearing anything under her dress. He hadn't seen anything this sexy in his life. Sure, he'd taken a peek at some of Bolin's racy magazines, but those girls weren't beautiful. They weren't Korra.

"You're staring," she said, feeling herself blush. Fuck, he was the only guy who could make her blush.

"You're beautiful," he said simply.

"Touch me," Korra whispered. She took Mako's hands in hers and placed them over her breasts.

Korra laid down on her back and Mako started rubbing her, his fingers tracing the curve of her breasts.

Korra let out a small moan and dug her fingernails into Mako's back.

"I want to feel you everywhere," she whispered.

"You will. I promise."

Mako kissed her neck, sucking on the spot where he could feel the rapid pulse in her throat. He knew that would leave a mark.

He started going lower, exploring her beautiful body. He trailed his tongue across her breasts, pausing to suck on her nipples. Korra squirmed underneath him and Mako smiled.

He went lower until his mouth was at her vagina.

"Mako, you don't have to… I didn't even shave…"

"Shhhh," Mako said. "I want to."

He parted her legs and positioned himself between them.

He placed his tongue on her folds and began exploring her.

"Oh!" Korra gasped. She dug her fingers in Mako's hair. She had dreams of him eating her out and she couldn't believe they were finally coming true.

Mako smiled and licked Korra until he found her clit. He licked it gently, causing Korra to shudder.

"Mako, shit…"

He started sucking her clit and Korra's back arched uncontrollably.

"Shit, shit, shit…"

She pulled at Mako's hair so hard he figured that she must be pulling some of it out, but he didn't care. There was no better feeling than pleasuring her like this.

"I want you to scream my name," Mako said as he bit down on her clit lightly.

Korra moaned. "Mako…."

"Louder, Korra," he said as he started to pick up his pace, sucking her faster and applying more pressure.

"Mako! Fuck, I'm going to come! Mako, please…"

He stretched his hands up so he could touch her breasts as he continued sucking her clit and licking her.

"Oh, fuck! Mako!" Korra screamed out. He could feel her body shaking as she finally reached her breaking point.

He had to place his hands on her hips to keep them from lifting off the bed as she came.

He stopped sucking her when she released her grip on his hair.

"Mako… you didn't have to…" Korra was still trying to catch her breath.

Mako crawled up to her so they were face to face.

"That was the sexiest thing I have ever witnessed."

"I've always dreamed of you eating me out, but I didn't know it would feel like that."

Mako kissed her softly. "I'm glad you enjoyed it," he whispered against her lips.

"I want you inside me," Korra said bluntly.

She reached down at his crotch, where, sure enough, she felt his bulge through his pants.

"Did that turn you on?" Korra asked playfully.

"You just saying my name turns me on. You moaning my name, screaming my name, it kills me."

Korra smiled. "Take your pants off already. I've been dying to see your dick."

Mako laughed and sat up. He reached for his belt, but Korra sat up quickly and stopped him.

"Let me," she said, unbuckling his belt for him.

She slid his pants down and Mako helped her get them down his legs and off the bed.

"Silk boxers? Since when do you wear silk boxers?" Korra had memories of seeing his usual, cheap striped boxers, not fancy silk ones.

Mako blushed. "I, um, wanted to look nice for you…"

"You bought silk boxers for me?" Korra sighed and kissed Mako's neck.

"I'd buy anything for you," he said. "I'd buy the fucking world for you if I could."

Korra slid her hands down his boxers, his silk boxers, and he moaned at her touch.

He suddenly felt embarrassed that he had such a reaction to her small touch.

Korra took her hands out and leaned back so she could take off the last piece of clothing that separated them.

Her eyes widened when she saw him. "Shit," she muttered under her breath.

Mako's cheeks burned as Korra continued looking at his length.

"I want you inside of me," Korra breathed. "Now."

"Hold on," he said, his voice strained. He got up and ran to the bathroom. He grabbed a handful of condoms and the lube.

Walking in and seeing Korra naked on his bed was almost too much for him. He climbed back on the bed and put the condoms and lube between them.

"Mako! How many times do you expect to have sex tonight?" She laughed looking at all the condoms; there must have been at least ten.

"Oh, um, I, well, I just took a handful, I mean, well, um, you know…"

"Mako, I'm kidding. You're so fucking cute when you're flustered."

"Oh," Mako laughed and Korra kissed him softly.

"I like this, though," she said, picking up the lube.

She opened it up and squeezed some into her hand. She rubbed it between them to warm it up and then she coated Mako's penis with it.

"Fuck," he moaned, closing his eyes. "Korra," he gasped, "I still need to put a condom on."

"I know," she replied, "I just wanted to do that to you."

Mako sighed contently as Korra ripped open a condom from its package.

"Now, let's put this on you."

Mako opened his eyes and watched as Korra slid the condom down to the base of his penis. She then took more lube and rubbed it over the condom.

"I swear, keep touching me like that and I'm going to come."

Korra laughed. "Don't come yet, Mako, not until you're inside of me…"

"I want to be inside of you." Mako pushed Korra down so she was lying on her back again. He positioned himself so he was at her entrance.

"Wait!"

Mako sat up so quickly he got a headrush. "Is something wrong? Do you want to stop? Are you okay?"

"Mako, calm down. I just want you to put some lube on me before we start."

"Oh," Mako felt embarrassed again and Korra laughed.

"Babe, I'm not going to tell you to stop. I love you."

Mako smiled. "I love you," he said, leaning down to kiss her lips.

Them, he sat up and got some lube. He rubbed some of it between his hands and rubbed it between Korra's folds.

"Shit, Mako…"

"Mmm, you're so wet, Korra, I don't know how much of a difference this lube is going to make."

"Just get in me already. Make love to me."

She didn't have to ask him again. Mako positioned himself at her entrance like he did before.

"Are you ready, baby?" He asked, his forehead pressed to hers.

"Yes…."

He entered her slowly and they both moaned at the sensation.

"Mmm, Mako…"

He went slowly at first, thrusting into her gently, fighting the urge to go faster.

He had never felt closer to anyone else before. Sure, he had fucked plenty of pretty girls; one of the perks of pro-bending was having tons of girls adore you. But he had never made love. He had given away his heart and soul to another person before.

Mako found Korra's hands and pinned them over her head, intertwining their fingers together.

"Please go faster, Mako, please…"

"Anything for you," he whispered.

Mako picked up the pace and Korra's hips moved against his at the new, faster rhythm.

He groaned with each thrust into her. He could come right now, but he knew Korra wasn't ready. She wasn't shaking yet.

Mako continued pumping into her as Korra's moans got more frantic.

"Mako… oh! Fuck! Mako, Mako, please, no, please, no, fuck, no, oh…."

Hearing Korra moan uncontrollably… it was the hottest thing he ever heard.

He didn't know how long they were making love for. It could have been minutes, it could have been hours… he lost all sense of time, all sense of the outside world when he was with Korra like this.

He focused on the sounds of her breathing, her moaning, the smell of her skin, their bodies clashing together again and again.

"I'm so close, Mako…." Korra said, biting on her lips.

He was already thrusting into her as hard and as fast as he could… what would send her over the edge?

He quickly pulled one of his hands away from hers and started rubbing her clit.

"Fuck! Mako! Yes, Mako…"

He grinned as he rubbed her harder. Korra's back arched and she started shaking.

"Come for me," Mako groaned.

Korra made noises he never thought she'd make. She moaned, she whined, she cursed.

But when she moaned his name, not just said it, but moaned it, like it was the most important word in her vocabulary, Mako couldn't hold back any longer and he came.

He felt her walls clench around him as he exploded within her. Korra dug her fingernails into his back and scratched him as they finished together.

They kissed each other in between moans. Mako ran his hands up and down Korra's body, giving her chills while she fingered his hair.

They didn't say anything after they reached their climaxes. Mako simply collapsed on top of Korra and they just listened to each other's breathing.

"Am I crushing you?" Mako said, finally breaking the silence after a while. He was afraid his body weight on her was too much.

"No, I love the feeling of your skin on mine." She squeezed his ass and then rubbed her hands up and down his back.

"Wait, something's on your back."

"Probably sweat. I think we just burned more calories than we ever did in the pro-bending arena."

"No, it's blood! Mako, sit up."

He did as she said, wondering how he could have gotten blood on his back.

"Oh, fuck, I completely scratched your back."

"It's okay," Mako said, kissing Korra's neck.

"No, let me heal you."

"I'm fine, let's just lie down and cuddle."

Korra smiled. "After I heal your back, we can cuddle. Let's go to the shower."

And so the two of them got up and crammed themselves in Mako's small shower.

Korra ran the water and bended it so it was concentrated on Mako's back.

"Is that better?" Korra asked him as she healed him.

He loved it when she took care of him like this, like he was the most important person in the world to her.

"Mmm, yes, thank you."

Korra kissed his back once he was healed and then Mako turned around. He shut the water off and picked his girlfriend up.

"Now, we're going back to bed."

"Okay," Korra giggled.

Mako grabbed a towel and hastily threw it over them. Korra rubbed it against their bodies so they were somewhat dry by the time they reached Mako's bed.

"Do you want me to blow out the candles?" Mako asked her as he laid her down on the bed.

"No, I like them. And I don't want you to leave me, not even for a second."

Mako smiled at her and climbed into bed.

They got into their usual cuddling position; Mako flat on his back, Korra's head on his chest, their legs tangled together, and her hands on his chest. But they were naked this time which made everything feel so different, so sensual, so right.

Korra sighed happily. "I could stay like this forever," she said.

"Me too. Tomorrow I think we should stay in bed all day."

"Mmm, that's a good idea," Korra said.

"Are you tired?"

"Yes," Korra said, her eyelids starting to close.

"We should sleep now, we have a long day tomorrow."

"I can't wait," Korra said, rubbing her hands on Mako's chest.

"I love you, Korra. I love you more than I've ever loved anyone else before."

Korra smiled to herself. "I'm glad, because I'm in love with you. Never let me go."

"Never," Mako promised, wrapping his arms around her and drifting off to sleep.
