Hey guys, so I decided to create an AU Borra. There isn't enough and even though I know that it isn't canon, it's still my favorite pair. Enjoy, but fair warning: this is one of my first fics. Comment your thoughts; I'm open to criticism. I don't own The Legend of Korra (obviously T.T )
Thoughts look like this
Chapter 1: A Good Start
"I can't believe my baby's going off to college!" Korra's mom cried out, as she read over the acceptance letter. "You're growing up so fast, and now you're moving out! We'll have a party and invite everyone we know…"
"Mom, relax," Korra laughed, cutting her off. "I'll still be in town for the next month or two to pack my things, say bye to friends. You know. The works."
"I know honey but I'll still miss you," the older woman replied with a small sigh. Korra grinned at her mother and walked over to her sleeping dog sleeping on the couch. I'll miss you, Naga. I don't think they allow pets in the dorms at Republic University. The dog perked up and licked Korra's face at the touch of her hand.
Korra sighed and sat down on the other end of the couch. The last few weeks had been exhausting. After struggling with school work and preparing for finals, she had completely forgotten that she had sent multiple schools applications. Finals were in a week, and she had been studying names, dates, formulas, and vocabulary for the past 9 days until her head had started spinning. Korra had a 3.9 GPA, and she wanted to keep it up. She was known as one of the best and brightest of South Pole High, and she wanted to keep that up.
"Korra got accepted to RU! I know! Full scholarship, too! I am too. That's why we're hosting a party this weekend at our house. Yep. Alright! See you then!" Korra looked at her mother who was sitting in across the room. Already sending out invites. That's mom for ya…
"Honey, do you want pizza at the party? Or catering? Oh what the heck, we'll have both! Oh I'm so happy for you!"
"Mom, please don't make a big deal out of it. I'm going out to meet a friend, so don't go crazy."
"But honey, it is a big deal! You're going to college with a full ride and I'm supposed to just sit here? I don't think so! I can't wait to tell your father."
"Bye, Mom," Korra laughed as she walked out the door. The town wasn't that big, so it didn't take her that long to get to the local café, where her friend Bianca was waiting. As soon as Bianca saw Korra, she grinned and waved at Korra. Korra waved back and ran over only to get a big hug.
"What was that for?" Korra asked.
"What do you mean, what was that for? You got accepted to your first choice college on a full scholarship!" Bianca exclaimed. "You should be the one screaming and hugging and generally making a fool of yourself, not me."
"You know I don't like making a big deal out of things," Korra replied with a smirk. "I leave in a month, so could you help me choose which clothes to bring?"
"Girl, I'm thinking of flying out to Republic City to help you shop over there too. All you have are these long clothes made for the cold. It's not as ice-y up there, you know."
"I know," Korra grinned, "But I want something from home. It snows every once and a while."
Korra and Bianca spent the next half hour catching up and guessing how many cute guys there would be up north, but were cut off when a honking sound startled them. Korra's dad called out to her from the car, telling her that it was time for dinner. Korra and Bianca hugged again and made promises for another meet later. As Korra sat in the car on the way home, she looked out the window at the setting sun, and felt both a feeling of nervousness and a feeling of excitement. College would be something she would be looking forward too.
So I know it's not very long, but I promise that it will get longer as time goes on. Next chapter we will see some of Bolin. Please follow and favorite!
