Forever and Always
Modern day AU. When Korra and Mako were 7 and 8 right before Korra moved away, they vowed to be friends forever and even get married someday. Ten years later Korra moves back to Republic City to find out that her childhood friend changed a lot. He's even dating her childhood bully Asami. Can they fulfill their promises?
Disclaimer-I do not own Legend of Korra or any characters except Aria.
"Ugh have I mentioned how much I hate mornings?" Korra asked herself throwing the covers off her body.
She went into the bathroom and took a quick shower. She got out and dried her hair. She went into her closet and picked out a black tank top with a purple sweater that's shows her left shoulder and the strap of her tank. Korra lazily put on a pair of light grey skinny jeans with a studded brown belt and put on her favorite pair of black converses.
She put her curly brown locks into a messy side bun and applied a little coat of lip-gloss and puckered her lips.
She went to her desk and logged on into her laptop.
How to ruin Asami Sato.
What she has.
1.) Army of soul eaters.
2.) Gorgeous hair.
3.) Petite body.
4.) Mako Mitchell.
5.) Money
Korra smirked. Asami doesn't know what's coming towards her, Korra thought. Together she, Bolin, and Aria are going to rid of all her qualities. She shut down her laptop and headed downstairs.
"Hey mom. Hey dad." Korra said walking into the kitchen.
"Hey sweetie."
"Hey kiddo." Tonraq said sipping his coffee while reading the newspaper.
"So Korra how was your little play date with Bolin and that girl Aria?" Senna asked.
Korra rolled her eyes. "Mom for the last time I'm 17 I don't do play dates, I hang out. I'm not seven any more." Korra said pouring herself a bowl of Lucky Charms.
Senna chuckled. Tonraq sighed. "It only seems like yesterday she, Bolin, and Mako got arrested for stealing candy." Tonraq said.
Korra glared at her father while pouring some milk into the bowl . "Dad we were broke and what did you expect us to do? To leave the store without any candy?"
Tonraq glared. "No, but that doesn't mean you have the right to steal."
Senna smiled. "Tonraq stop making fun of our daughter. Oh, and that reminds me Korra I signed you up for the competition team at Tarrlok's Rink . You're suppose to come tomorrow at four." Senna said taking a sip of her coffee.
Korra smiled. "Wow I haven't been there since forever, but I hope that bitch still doesn't go there." Korra said glaring at her cereal.
Tonraq gasped. "Korra we aren't suppose to call people that!" Tonraq yelled.
Korra rolled her eyes.
"But Asami's an exception." Tonraq continued. Korra laughed.
"Oh, mom do you have those special protein bars from the Fire Nation?" Korra asked putting her empty bowl into the sink.
Senna nodded. "Why do you need those Korra your body is perfectly fit?" Senna asked raising an eyebrow. Korra went into the cabinet and got two boxes of the special protein bars.
Korra silently gulped. "Um I need them for a friend at school. She's way too skinny." Korra said awkwardly as she grabbed her bag and phone.
Senna nodded, but still kept her eyes on Korra.
"Well I gotta get to school. Oh, and Mako's coming over later. Love you." Korra yelled as she got out of the house. "Phew that was a close one." Korra said as she put on her helmet. She started the moped and headed towards school.
(At school.)
"Hey Korra." Aria greeted as Korra got off her moped. Korra looked up and smiled.
"Hey Aria." Korra greeted as she carefully placed her helmet on the seat.
"Do you have the protein bars?" Aria asked walking into the entrance with Korra to her left.
Korra nodded and smirked. "Yep."
"How do those exactly work?" Aria asked.
"Well these protein bars only work if you exercise, but if you don't you gain weight like crazy." Korra stated as they rounded a corner.
"Oh, so we'll tell Asami they make you lose weight without having to work out." Aria said.
"Yep. That protein bar is a one ticket to hell for her." Korra said.
(Lunch)
"Hey Asami." Korra greeted sitting across from the raven haired beauty.
Asami looked around, left to right. She pointed to herself. "You're talking to me? I thought we were barely even acquaintances?" Asami asked raising an perfectly arched eyebrow.
Korra gulp. Spirits this seemed easier in the movie, she thought to herself as she faked the best smile she could do.
"Listen Bolin told me you wanted to lose some weight. And I have some protein bars from the Fire Nation that make you lose weight, but you have to eat it a least three times a day." Korra said handing Asami the two boxes of protein bars.
Asami didn't seem convinced. Shit she's onto me.
"Look Asami I know we haven't been the best of friends, but I want to help you with you're problem." Korra said in the most sincere way she could.
"Okay I'll try it, but that doesn't mean we're friends. Now scram I don't want my friends to get the wrong idea." Asami said narrowing her eyes at the smaller girl.
Korra smiled and waved. Asami still thought something was off about that Korra girl, but she just waved it off.
"Did she fall for it?" Bolin asked.
Korra nodded. "Yep, but don't ever make me confront her again her perfume was giving me a headache." Korra complained.
Aria laughed. "Yeah her smell is intoxicating. Maybe that's why the soul eaters follow her around, they can't think straight because the perfume is in their brains." Aria said. Korra gave Aria an are you kidding me look and Bolin raised an eyebrow.
"What? It's true." Aria said defensively. Korra just shrugged and ignored it.
"Okay now that we got number three off of the list, which one do we do now?" Bolin asked. Korra tapped her chin.
"Hmm. Hey Bolin do you think Asami's coming over you place any time soon?" Korra asked.
"Yeah she's coming over tomorrow to hang with Mako. Why?" He asked.
Korra smiled devilishly. "Because you're going to get rid of number two on the list while she's there." Korra said.
"What do I have to do?" Bolin asked.
"Okay while she's cuddling with Mako or something on the couch. My guess is that her hair flows behind the couch. So I want you to cut it." Korra said. Aria smiled.
"That's brilliant Korra." Aria said.
"Wait I have to cut her hair? What if she catches me, she'll send me into the ninth circle of hell. Why can't you or Aria do it? Besides I have football practice tomorrow." Bolin whined.
Korra sighed. "Bolin if I could I would, but I have to go to skating practice tomorrow." Korra said.
"And I have to go to the newspaper committee meeting tomorrow." Aria explained.
"Besides Bolin she'll probably be coming over after practice. And just hide behind the couch and cut the hair silently and don't cut it too short just make it as ugly as you can. And when you're done put the hair in a bag and go back to your room." Korra said.
Bolin glared at the two girls. "Ugh fine, but this is another reason why I make this team perfectly." Bolin said. Both girls squealed and hugged Bolin. "Ladies, ladies there's plenty of Bolin to come around."
Korra smacked the back of Bolin's head earning a "oww" from him.
(The Sinclair Mansion)
The door bell rang and Korra got off of the couch to go get it. She opened the door and Mako was there standing awkwardly.
Korra smiled. "Hey Mako. Come in." Korra said as she opened the door wider.
"Hey Korra. Who's at the door?" Senna asked descending from the stair case. "Oh, Mako is that you? I haven't seen you in ten years." Senna squealed coming down to hug Mako.
Mako chuckled. "It's great to see you again Mrs. Sinclair." Mako said.
Senna pulled away. "Please Senna is just fine. My Korra was right. You are hot." Senna said.
Korra blushed. "Mom what the hell." Korra said as she grabbed Mako's wrist and pulled him upstairs. They walked into her room and Korra shut the door behind her. Korra sighed.
"I'm sorry about my mom. She's on drugs." Korra said chuckling a little bit. Make was giving her a serious look.
"You're mom's on drugs. Should we like call the cops?" Mako asked. Korra gasped.
"No, no, no that won't be necessary. I was just joking." Korra said.
Mako raised an eyebrow. "So you lied about me being hot?"
Korra blushed. "That depends on how you define lying."
Mako sighed. "Well I define it by not telling the truth. How do you define it?"
"By laying your body in a horizontal position?" Korra said making movements with her hands.
Mako laughed. "Chill out Kor. I was just kidding." Mako said.
Korra glared at the older boy. "Dumbass." She mumbled under her breathe. "So what do you want to do?" Korra asked awkwardly.
"Hmm. Why don't we go out into the balcony like old times?" Mako suggested. Korra shrugged and opened the doors to the balcony.
"So Mako can you tell me why you're dating the person who made my childhood a living hell with all the shoving and taunting?" Korra asked as nicely as she could.
Mako sighed honestly he knew that question would be asked sometime. "Korra Asami has changed, she's nice now and I would really like for you two to be friends." Mako said.
Korra laughed bitterly. "Ha you expect me to be friends with her. Get your head out of the clouds Mako she's practically the meanest girl in our grade. Just yesterday she threatened me in the bathroom." Korra said.
Mako's mouth went agape. "Korra don't lie to me. Asami said you're the one who threatened her to leave me alone!" Mako yelled.
Korra gasped. That little bitch. "What she threatened me! And I don't know if you'd notice Mako, but once a bully always a bully."
"You know what Korra I think you're jealous. You're jealous that Asami and I are dating and you have no one. You're lucky Bo and I hung out with someone as ugly as you were back then." Once Mako said that he regretted his words. Actually he was in love with Korra back then and now that she's back the feelings are growing inside of his body, but he's trying to convince himself that Asami's the one he wants not Korra.
"Korra I-" Mako was cut off by Korra.
"You know what Mako you're right. You're fucking right. Here I was thinking that no one has changed, but I was wrong. You've changed Mako. She's changed you. You're just another football playing jerk. Like all the other guys in the world. And honestly it hurts that you'd rather believe you're girlfriend of three years than you best friend of ten." Korra said coldly.
"Korra I'm sorry." Mako said. "I didn't mean it."
"Just get out. Take care Mako." Korra said as she walked away from the boy she loved.
Damn hormones, she thought to herself after Mako left. She snuggled into her pillow and cried herself to sleep.
Hi everyone. Sorry for the late update, I was currently having writers block, but now I'm back. So this chapter may not be the longest, but there's more to come.
So in the reviews there were some questions asked and let me clarify a few things.
1.) Korra's not the avatar.
2.) Bending was just a myth.
3.) And yes Asami's going to be a female dog throughout the story.
And last, but not least I want to thank Immaculate Rose for all the information she gave me on figure skating. If it weren't for her the story line would be messed up and I would know nothing of figure skating.
Until the next update and please review!
