Back again! Sorry it took so long!


Chapter Two - New Job

Korra P.O.V

I woke up from the sun shining on my face. I covered my eyes and rolled over, groaning as I did so. I laid on my stomach for a few minutes before the sweet smell of bacon filled my nostrils. I jumped up and ran downstairs, into the kitchen.

"Where is the bacon?!" I said, my voice close to a shout.

My father laughed, flipping some of the bacon he was cooking. "Korra, it'll be done in a few minutes."

I sighed and sat down at the kitchen table. My stomach growled.

"Daaaaad! How much longer?" I pouted, crossing my arms.

I heard him laugh. He brought out a plate of bacon and set it on the table. "It's done," he said.

I stuffed my face with bacon, eating as quick as I possibly could. My father sat down next to me and started to slowly eat the bacon.

"So Korra, how was your first day of school here?" He asked me.

"It was alright. I miss my old friends though." I replied, stuffing another piece of bacon in my mouth.

"You should find a job, maybe you'll meet some people you'll really like." He said.

"Should I go look for one today?" I asked.

"If you want to." He said, picking up the empty plate and walking back into the kitchen.

I got up and ran back up the stairs, getting dressed. I'm going hunting for a job.I thought.

~~~~Walking around town~~~~

I walked into a small diner. The bell on the door rang.

"I'll be there in a second!" I heard someone shout from inside the diner.

I walked up to the bar and sat down. A tall, dark haired 20-something year old in an apron came running up to the counter.

"Can I help you?" He asked me.

I stared at his face, maybe a little too long because he coughed to get my attention.

"Oh, umm, do you have any job openings?" I asked.

"We do. We need a waitress. You think you could do that?" He said, wiping down the counter.

"I sure can!" I said excitedly.

"Good. You start tomorrow. Oh, what was your name?" He asked.

"Korra. You?" I said.

"Iroh. Your first shift is tomorrow at 11am. I'll see you then." He said, walking back towards the kitchen.

I smiled and walked out of the diner, making my way home to get ready for Asami's party.

~~~~~Before the party~~~~~

I looked in the mirror on my way out of my room. I was wearing a bright pink high-low dress with black pumps and a white clutch. My hair was loosely curled and tumbling down my back(PRRROOOOOOFIIILLLLLEEEE). I smiled before walking down the stairs and outside.

Mako P.O.V

~~~~~At the party~~~~~

I was sitting in Asami's room, waiting for the first few guests to arrive. I was wearing a red button down shirt with black dress pants, along with my Vans. (profile) I wondered if Korra was going to be at the party. Probably, I told myself.

"Mako! Get down here!" Asami shouted from downstairs. I sighed and got up, walking down the stairs and towards the front door.

I looked up from the floor and froze. Korra is here tonight.

"Mako, make sure that no one tries to grope Korra, alright?" Asami said, smiling. She was wearing a aqua dress with white pumps and had a white clutch. Her hair was curled and pinned up with a white barrette. (again, PROFILE.)

I nodded slightly, looking at Korra up and down. She looked beautiful, I thought. Korra smiled at me and walked inside. She hooked her arm in mine and pulled me away from the door.

~~~~~Sometime after people started arriving~~~~~

The music was blasting my ears and I was buzzed from a few drinks. Korra has moved away from me after about 15 minutes. I didn't mind though, she was new and she should meet new people.

"Don't touch me, creep!" I heard a voice shout from across the house.

I ran towards the sound, scared that it was Korra.

"Come back here, hot stuff." The guy said. I could hear the slur in his words.

"Get away from me!" The girl shouted.

A circle formed around the two people. I pushed my way through the crowd. It was Korra and Moto Teika, a member of the football team. I ran towards Korra, grabbing her and pulling her away from Moto. I pulled her away from the crowd and brought her upstairs, to Asami's room.

"Korra, are you alright?" I asked as I shut the door to the room.

She nodded. "Thank you for saving me.." She sat down on the bed.

"Don't worry about it, Korra." I said, sitting down on the bed next to Korra.

Korra P.O.V

I was talking to Nao, a soccer player, when I felt someone grab my ass. I turned around and swung a punch. The guy ducked. I moved away from him.

"Don't touch me, creep!" I shouted at the guy.

He was stumbling. "Come back here, hot stuff." He slurred. He stumbled towards me, getting dangerously close to falling.

"Get away from me!" I shouted. I looked around. No one was helping, everyone was just watching.

An arm grabbed me and pulled me. I almost fought back, but then I glanced at the person pulling me. It was Mako. I let out a sigh of relief. He pulled me up the stairs and into a bedroom.

"Korra, are you alright?" He asked me, shutting the door behind me.

I nodded slightly. "Thank you for saving me.." I said as I sat down on the bed.

"Don't worry about it, Korra." He said, sitting down next to me.

I relaxed and placed my hands on the bed. One of my hands ended up on top of Mako's. I froze for a second, not knowing what to do. I looked away from Mako. I could feel his stare burning into the back of my skull.

I slowly turned my head back towards Mako. Our eyes locked and we were both leaning in. Our lips touched and fit perfectly. I moved my hands to his waist, and Mako did the same.

We were so into kissing each other that neither one of us heard the door open.

"Oh my god. I am so sorry!" I heard someone say.

I jumped back from Mako, placing my hands in my lap. I looked up at the person who had walked in. It was Bolin.

"I uh, gotta get going now anyways..." I said, standing up. I looked back at Mako "See you tomorrow?" I asked him.

He nodded at me. "See you tomorrow." He said.

I left the room and went home.

Mako P.O.V

"I uh, gotta get going new anyways..." Korra said, standing up. Don't go. I thought. I watched her walk towards the door, glaring at Bolin. She glanced back at me. "See you tomorrow?" She asked me.

I nodded. "See you tomorrow." I smiled.

She left the room.

"Bo, did you have to interrupt us?" I said angrily.

"I'm sorry! I didn't know you two were in here!" He apologized. "But don't you think it's a bit early for you two to be kissing and stuff? I mean, you guys barely know each other."

I glared at him.

"Alright, alright. I'll go. See you at home, Mako." He said as he walked out of the bedroom door.

Korra P.O.V

I started the car and pulled out of the huge pile of cars in front of Asami's house. I drove home and went inside, changed into pajamas, and laid down on my bed. I thought about what had happened less than an hour ago. I heard my door open and I sat up. It was Howl.

"You're back early." He said, sitting down on the other side of my bed.

"Yeah, well it was a boring party." I lied. It was a good party, just unexpected things happened.

"That sucks." Howl said.

"Oh, I got a job today, by the way." I told him.

"Really? That's great! Congratulations." He replied.

"Mind leaving? I'm a bit tired and I would like to sleep." I yawned.

"No problem. Want me to turn your light off?" He asked.

"Sure." I said.

He walked out of my room and flicked the light off. I fell asleep soon after.
