Chapter two:

The morning after Mako woke up feeling content, with care he undid the warm embrace in which his arms were wrapped around Lin.

Grinning slightly he stood up, after giving her a warm kiss in her cheeks.

-Good morning chief- he said softly

The metal-bender remained asleep. Having gotten dressed, he walked over to the kitchen, the fire-bender made a couple of sandwiches, laying them on a tray. He also brewed some jasmine tea for both of them. His mind was filled with images from the night before as he walked towards her room.

Once inside the bedroom Mako placed the breakfast tray onto the bed, for a moment he stared in awe at the naked metal-bending goddess that laying under the bedsheets.

The chief slowly opened her eyes and laid a quick gaze around her, noticing both the breakfast tray and the standing fire-bender.

-Good morning- said Lin in a light voice

-Do you mind if i wear a robe- she continued with a smirk in her face.

The chief got up from the bed revealing her mesmerizing nude figure as she reached for a green silk robe inside the closet. Once again he stared amazed at her beauty, alabaster skin, the face of a scarred goddess, toned arms, perfect sized firm breasts with perky pink nipples, strong waist and curvy hips, thick thighs and long legs, as she turned around; he also noticed the rest of her sculpted body, tempered by a lifetime of hard work.

His eyes wandered to her bottom, when she started to put the robe on, the soft fabric wrapping almost every one of her curves. Both were enjoying a light breakfast in bed, sitting aside each other, savoring this strange moment of peace, since they led very busy lives.

A week or so passed and Tenzin was rounding up the Krew, Mako had just agreed to go with them in their search for air-benders, now he had to give Lin the news.

She heard a knock at the door.

-Who is it?- She asked in her usual grumpy tone.

-Its Mako, may i enter Chief?- he asked.

-Come in- she replied, -What do you need Mako?- She asked.

-Lin, I'll be away for a while; I am going to help with the air-bender search, Tenzin and Korra asked me to, …...so i will be out for at least a couple of months.

He paused suddenly, feeling the room fill with tension, The chief was staring at him, her gaze felt heavy, almost, deadly.

-Do you still have feelings for ... Korra?!-, she asked as her voice cracked.

-What?, no, we broke up Why?- He answered

-Fine, you can go, but you should have asked me for permission first- She said while grinding her teeth.

I will leave tomorrow then, said Mako as he wrapped his arms around a frowning Lin, she did the same and held him in her arms, as they undid the warm embrace she whispered in his ear:

-I'm gonna miss you-.
