The wind gently blew in the air, causing the many trees on Air Temple Island to lightly shuffle. It was a peaceful night for most, but not for everyone.

There lay Korra sweating while tossing and turning in her bed. Quiet whimpers and cries escaped her mouth as she struggled. She couldn't hide from him. She couldn't escape him. She was helpless. He grabbed her face and began to place his thumb on her forehead when–

"Ahhh…!" Korra screamed, as she jumped upright on her bed. She sat in the dark panting with a terrified look on her face. Sweat dripped down her face.

For some reason these nightmares had been occurring more and more for Korra. Perhaps they had been caused by stress from training for both pro-bending and airbending at the same time. All the physical work can take a toll on the mind. But Korra knew deep down the true cause. She hated to admit such a thing, but she couldn't lie to her self. She was afraid.

This nightmare was so much more vivid and real than her past nightmares. She looked around the room and spotted the outline of her Polar Bear-Dog lying next to her on the ground. Although she knew she had the protection of the White Lotus on the island around her, having Naga in the room didn't seem to comfort her quite enough. She decided maybe if she stayed with Mako and Bolin, she would feel better.

"Don't worry Naga, I'll be back in the morning." She smiled at her pet polar bear-dog who was whimpering at the thought of being left alone. Korra gave her a quick reassuring pat on her head and leaped out the window.

Meanwhile, Mako and Bolin had had a long day of training. They both had fallen asleep on their couch. After a few hours had gone by, Mako woke up and realized it had gotten late. He stretched his arms out with a yawn and got up to go to the bathroom and take a shower.

After his shower, he came back to the couch to see how sound asleep his brother was. He figured Bolin was comfortable enough, so instead of waking him, he placed a blanket over his body instead, then headed up the stairs to his room.

Once in his room, he changed into a white tank top under shirt and some loose grey pants. After tossing his day clothes into a basket, he collapsed faced down onto his bed.

Suddenly, he heard a noise coming from his open window. With a reflex reaction he sprang from his bed and stood at the window with a fist ready to strike.

"Who's there!" He yelled.

A pair of familiar blue eyes appeared at the base of the window. Mako then relaxed a little at the sound of the intruder's voice.

"Mako, it's just me." She whispered while pulling herself up a little more.

"What are you doing here so late? I could've seriously hurt you!" He snapped.

She climbed completely through his window and was now standing in from of him. She enjoyed the view of Mako in his sleep ware. It definitely showed more of his muscles than his everyday attire.

"I couldn't sleep. I've been having a lot of nightmares lately, and I don't feel comfortable sleeping alone. I was just wondering if maybe I could stay here for the night?"

Mako was taken off guard at how vulnerable Korra seemed at the moment. He could see it in her eyes how uneasy she was. Instead of being a pain, he knew she could really use some comfort right now.

"Oh..umm...yeah sure, I guess."

The thought of having Korra, of all people, spending the night with him made him a little nervous.

"Thanks Mako." She thanked him with a friendly hug which turned into an awkward one when they separated still holding each other, their eyes meeting.

Mako quickly let go and cleared his throat.

"So..um, d-do you want to talk about it?" He sat down on his bed and patted the space next to him. Korra smiled at the offer and decided to let Mako in. She sat next to him and sighed.

"Mako, I'm going to be completely honest with you, I really don't know how I'm going to stop Amon and the Equalists. I've never been scared of anything in my life, but just the thought of Amon makes me feel like a weak and helpless little girl and that frustrates me!"

Korra held back her tears. She didn't want to completely break down in front of him.

Mako knew she was going through a tough time. This would be scary for anyone to deal with. Despite how angry she makes him sometimes, and despite their constant bickering, in this moment, Mako felt sorry for her. All he wanted to do was help her in anyway he could.

"I know it does. You know Korra, you may be the Avatar, but you're still just a regular kid. It's okay to be scared. This isn't something anyone could easily deal with."

He tried to comfort her by rubbing her back, and Korra did actually feel better from his advice.

To be honest, just the presence of him had already made her feel better. She felt so at ease with him...and yet so sexually frustrated with him at the same time.

She lifted her head to meet his eyes and gave a soft smile.

"Thank you." She said.

Maybe it was the fact that they were both in their sleep ware and were so close to each other on his bed, or maybe their hormones simply couldn't take it anymore. What ever the reason, Korra's sudden action couldn't really be explained.

Without thinking, Korra pulled Mako in closer to her and smashed her lips onto his. Although in complete shock, Mako couldn't help but close his eyes and kiss her back. The sensation of it was too exhilarating for him.

He held the back of her neck with his hand and positioned her head right where he wanted it. Korra moaned through her nose at his action. She then decided to deepen the kiss by tracing the outside of Mako's lips with her tongue. Mako gladly accepted the gestured and opened his mouth to let her in.

Soon a fight for dominance broke out. With two such passionate and tough beings, the fight was evenly matched.

Their kiss was broken as they both separated for air.

"What–are–we doing?" Said Mako, between breaths.

"I don't–know." Korra replied. And without hesitation she pulled him in and feverishly kissed him again. Mako couldn't help the moan that escaped through his nose.

After a few moments, Korra decided to take things further by pressing down on Mako, causing him to lay down on his bed with Korra on top of him.

It finally registered in Mako's mind what she was doing. He immediately broke the kiss and gently pushed her back.

"Korra, don't. You need to stop, we can't do this..." Mako was fighting with himself to keep his priorities straight.

Korra's eyes quickly changed from confused to mischievous as she leaned forward and placed her forehead onto his. With a smirk, she whispered, "Are you going to make me?" She pressed herself harder on Mako's body.

Damn her.

Mako couldn't think properly. This wasn't happening. He couldn't do this. They couldn't do this. He tried so hard not to give in, but it's not like she was making things easy for him. With her perfectly fitted top, hugging each one of her curves ever so nicely. Or her long, soft, brown, wavy hair, cutely disheveled around her face. Or especially her eyes. Those sapphire eyes that were filled with such lust and want, starring into his own.

Mako knew he had lost. And with that, he pulled her in for another make out session.

He then decided he wanted to be the dominant one and flipped them over so he was now on top. It was his turn to torture her.

He placed small kisses all over her. From her mouth, to her chin, and down to her neck. He then nipped and sucked around her neck in search for her most sensitive area. She moaned in pleasure when he found that exact spot.

Korra closed her eyes and savored the feel of his mouth on her neck. She couldn't believe this was finally happening. She had dreamed of this moment so many times and now it was finally coming true.

Mako began kissing his way back to her lips, but when he reached her chin, he started licking her cheek.

This was unexpected, and some what weird.

"Mako...Ma-Mako, what are you doi–..."

Korra was suddenly awoken by Naga licking her face. She pushed Naga out of her way and sat up trying to blink her vision back to normal.

She groaned when she realized it had all been a dream and sighed in disappointment. She then looked down at Naga's face.

"Really Naga? You couldn't wait at least five more minutes!"

Naga just wagged her tail.

Korra got up from her bed and stretched out for the morning. Before she went to the bathroom, her window caught her eye. She walked up to it and gave a devilish smirk as she looked out to the Pro-Bending Arena and said,

"Some day..."
