Ch 2
It's been over a week since we first kissed, but I can still feel it, feel her: her lips, her heat. And every time our eyes meet, those feelings burn themselves back into me.
Practice has been halted since Amon basically blew up the stadium, and we've all moved into the Air Temple. Which really, I can't complain about; all the more reason to see Korra, and feel those emotions and relive those short touches once more.
But since we haven't told the airbenders, it's hard for us to actually be together. Mako and Asami know, so when we randomly disappear or make up excuses that would never hold up if questioned they just share a look and a faint smile and let us carry on.
And it's not like we're being devious, we just don't actually have any other good reason to spend time alone, and we're worried that if Tenzin finds out that Korra and I are together he'll make us move off of the island. Well, at least make me and probably Mako move out; he'd probably let Asami stay.
Because of this, we've only spent time alone, the two of us, in the evenings. We usually go for walks along the bay or we just hang around her room, or if Mako has snuck off into Asami's room we can be in my brother's and my room. Or, if they're off on the mainland on a date, but most of Asami's father's assets were frozen, so she doesn't have all that much money anymore and she can't take Mako on fancy dates, although she has begun to run Future Industries, so she is making some money. So sometimes we get my room.
It's not like we are trying to hide our relationship, I mean, I guess we are, but it's not like we're doing it because we're ashamed or doing anything we shouldn't be doing. I mean, we've fallen asleep together, on accident and luckily Mako came and got me out of Korra's room before Tenzin went to wake her up for airbending practice, but we don't "sleep" together. So, I don't know, I'm rambling, why am I rambling to myself?
