So because people actually liked the story, I'm gonna c how long i can stretch this out :) This is just a continuation off of the last chapter, where Mako takes Korra out on a date. Rated T because of mah trucker mouth :P

*Sigh* If i owned LoK, I would be able to BUY a Mako and Zuko look-alike... and keep them in mah room...

"Alright Bo, spill; how do you treat a woman on a first date?" Bolin pondered this, stroking his chin.

"It depends- do you wanna get laid?" Mako turned bright red and scratched the back of his head.

"Um…" Bolin laughed

"Dude, I was joking!" HE fell off the bed, clutching his side still laughing. Regaining control over his body, Bolin got off the floor and sat again on the bed. "Ok so the first thing you have to do is to look as spectacular as possible!"

Surveying his brothers clothing, Bolin picked at Mako's clothes.

"Take the jacket off." Mako gave him a look.

Bolin sighed. "Bro, you wear that all the time! At least try to make yourself look different!" Mako took the jacket off. "Ok- you're the expert." Bolin grinned. Shuffling through the sparse wardrobe Mako owned, Bolin pulled out a nice overcoat with a slightly worn maroon silk shirt.

"Put this on- Korra won't be able to keep her hands off of you!" Well, he has more experience than I do… Mako thought as he took the old clothes.

…

"Ok, I look ridiculous Bo." Bolin studied his brother and shook his head.

"Bro, you look great! Ok, now onto my next pieces of advice." Patting his hand on the space next to him. "Come, brother. Let me share with you." Mako rolled his eyes and sat down.

"Lay it on me."

Korra waited under the gazebo, playing with a few orbs of water. She didn't look too different than how she usually looks, except for some hints of makeup and an actual brushing of her hair. Hearing the light footprints of someone, she looked up.

Placing her electrifying blue eyes on her date, she burst into a fit of laughter. Mako stood, confused.

"What?" Korra looked up again, meeting his eyes with hers and burst into laughter all over again.

"You look crazy dude." She eyed the overcoat with the silk shirt, his slicked back hair and shiny shoes. He didn't look anything like the guy she fell for. "Who dressed you, Ikki?"

Mako was angry minutes before, but now just felt embarrassed. He laughed sarcastically.

"Ha-ha. You're hilarious. Maybe I should just-" Korra pulled him into a light kiss before he could finish his sentence. After breaking away, she shook her hand in Mako's hair.

"There." She stated with a smirk. "NOW your hair is amazing. Just please go put your old jacket on." Mako laughed and made a mental note to beat Bo up for doing this to him.

He took his date by the hand. Mako winked."If I have to go change, you may as well come along." Korra grinned her goofy grin.

"Let's go Cool Guy."

…

"So where do ya wanna go?" Mako rubbed the back of his head. Korra noticed the uncomfortable feeling Mako wore on his face and took his hand.

"I honestly don't give a shit as long as I'm with you." Mako grinned at this and pulled her in for a small kiss. He felt her smile and he gave her hand a small squeeze. Suddenly, he had an idea.

"Come on. I know just where to go. Stupid question: Are you hungry?" Korra laughed. "That's what I thought…"

"What'd you have in mind Mr. Hat Trick?" Mako smiled a small smile before responding.

"Somewhere you'll like, Mrs. Hat Trick."

…

"So… what did you say this was?" Korra looked questionably at her date. He grinned.

That was like the tenth time he grinned tonight. Either I have meat in my teeth or he's actually having fun

"This" he nudged to the building bustling with life inside. "Is Ming-Ming's Place. The best authentic food from all nations." Korra turned to him and grinned.

"ARE YOU SERIOUS?" She almost screamed. "I didn't even know these places EXISTED!"

"That's good. I thought you wo-" Mako almost lost feeling in his arm, that's how hard Korra yanked him into the restaurant.

"Table for two please." The man behind the counter looked at them.

"I'm sorry sir; the only table we have left is a booth. Is that alright?" Korra answered.

"That's fine!"

"Will that be all?"

"Yup. Thanks." As the waiter walked away, Korra edged closer to Mako. She rested her head on his shoulder and chuckled.

"What's so funny?" Mako asked, taking in her smell; pandalillies and vanilla. He liked it.

"I didn't know you of all people didn't like spicy food." Korra laughed again and Mako grinned. He expected this kind of mockery from someone like her.

" And I didn't think you're allergic to anything healthy." Korra lightly swatted his arm and laughed.

Minutes passed, and when the waiter came back with their food, the happy couple was still laughing.

Dinner was over, but the night wasn't over yet. Mako had so much planned; the carnival, a romantic walk on the beach, or some other cheesy thing that came to mind. All of those plans were put on hold when a certain waterbender (with amazing hair) made an entrance.*

"Well hello there, uh-vatar" Tahno's soft, melodic voice made its way to Mako's ears, causing a rush of anger to go through his body. "Oh look; it's the OTHER pro-bending failure." Tahno scanned the position the two were in, noticing the laced fingers and the firebender's arm around the Avatar. He flipped his hair and laughed.

Mako had had enough. He tightened his grip on his girlfriend (… date? He didn't know) and spoke. "And what are YOU laughing at?" His face remained aloof as it always was, but his eyes said something else.

Tahno stopped laughing and looked Mako dead in the eye. "How could someone so…" he eyed the Avatar. "sexy" Korra shuttered at the word and moved closer to her boyfriend, anger in her eyes too. "go for someone so… so… what's the word?" Tahno put on a sly grin before finishing. "ah. I remember; poor. Come here beautiful- we never had our private lessons."

Mako snapped. While Tahno went into another fit of laughter, he lunged. "WHAT *punch* DID *punch* YOU *punch* SAY *kick*?" Korra pulled her boyfriend off of the waterbender.

"Mako, get off of him." Mako looked at her, trying to portray a sad expression, unable to hide the look in her eyes. "He's not worth it."

Mako grunted before getting off of the waterbender. Possessively wrapping his arms around Korra, he gave her a lingering kiss.

He turned to Tahno, who was still on the floor. "If you ever even LOOK at my girlfriend, you won't get off so easy."

Far from the restaurant, the comfortable silence between the two was finally broken when they sat together on a park bench. Both almost asleep, Korra began to speak.

"Mako?"

"Hmm?"

"Why did you try to kill Tahno?" Mako chuckled.

"I wasn't going to kill him. I just wanted him to respect my girlfriend." Korra grinned against Mako's shoulder.

"Girlfriend?"

"Damn right. Anyone looks like that at you like that again they'll hafta deal with me." He shifted his position, making Korra's head to wind up in his lap. She grinned. Even in the dark those amazing eyes still shone.

Korra yawned, feeling the effects of sleep falling over her.

Mako lightly kissed her forehead and picked her up bridal style and walking towards the ferry dock, where the last ferry was almost ready to leave.

"WhatareyoudoinIcanwalkmyself" Korra's eyes fluttered.

Mako sighed happily, stepping onto the ferry. Korra's battle against her sleepiness was finally lost, and she entered a sleep filled with dreams of a handsome firebender.

Mako gently placed her in her room and gave her a kiss goodnight.

"I love you" he whispered when he thought she was asleep. As the door to her room slowly closed, Korra smiled.

"I love you too."
