"Hey, Mako. Hey, Bolin," Korra said, stepping out of the spirit portal. Her hand stayed in its stream and Asami walked out after her. Their hands were clasped firmly together.
"Hey Korra. Asami," Mako said awkwardly. "So, I-" it was only then when he realized that they were holding hands. "So, what, you're like sisters now?"
"Ah, I sure hope not," Asami said with a smile.
"Ah, haha!" Bolin said, rushing up to them and throwing his arms around them both. "I knew it! I knew you were gay, Korra! Now Opal was all, 'don't you think a girl can be strong and still like guys' and I was like YES! I mean, but not Korra!" The last line was accentuated with a fist in the air.
Mako raised an eyebrow. "You are gay, right?" Bolin finished weakly. Mako remembered when Korra kissed him for the first time. It sure didn't feel like she was gay.
"Err," Korra said, scratching the back of her head. Mako groaned. Both his ex-girlfriends were gay? For each other? At least he could be confident in his manhood. "No. Well, I've had good experiences with guys."
"Same," Asami said. Mako buried his head in his hands. Or not.
"We shouldn't kiss in front of Mako, I think it would hurt his brain," Asami said with a smirk and that little laugh of hers. Korra blushed. "I never thought that you would be shy," Asami commented. "Or like being the little spoon."
"Asami," Korra said, rolling her eyes.
"I should just, um, leave," Mako said, clearing his throat loudly. Asami laughed.
"He'll get over it," Asami said lightly.
"Aww," Bolin said, stretching his arms open to receive a hug from Mako. Mako grabbed the collar of his shirt and tugged him away. Bolin followed his lead with an exaggerated sigh.
Asami's hand squeezed Korra's. "Let's go greet your fans," she said quietly. Korra grinned and pulled her up the hill towards the press.
