He smiled at me and said something that left me blushing and thinking about it for the rest of the day. " You know Korra you're not like other girls... I like it."
Wow he's pretty straight forward, But yet he acted dorky a couple minutes ago. I couldn't help but think that he's different from other guys too. He's sweet but not too overbearing. Funny but not to the point where he gets annoying. Just all round great. Oh god please help me with this guy. I mean he makes me act awkward at times because of how straight forward and blunt he is. I need all the help I could get to not be dorky around this guy. I mean come one when has Korra Gutierrez ever been socially awkward? That's right never. Ugh! I need to get my act together before 1st period ends. I mean for crying out loud I have all classes with him! Don't get me wrong I'm all excited and happy for it, but that practically makes me a ticking bomb of embarrassing moments around this guy. I'm going to have to be very careful around him.
MAKO POV-
God, she's soo beautiful. That's all I could think of all through 1st period. I heard a rumor this morning when Bolin and I walked in that there were two new girls that were 'hot' as the guys from the football team had said. I was expecting them to be the usual types that fall all over the first guy that whistles at them, or gives them a flirty look. I expected them to not have a mind of their own, and just be dumb airheads. But I did expect them to be the usual type 'hot', that dress in short dresses and wear over-bearing amounts of make-up that makes them look like crayola threw up on their face. What I never expected them to be two beauties that were dressed in an appealing yet appropriate manner. I didn't expect them to be able to form coherent sentences around guys. But yet they surprised me when we collided in the halls I admit that they were both beauties, but one in particular truly looked like a goddess to me. Her name fit her image perfectly 'Korra'.
Right when we collided I landed on top of her with my hands wrapped instinctively around her waist. I had thought that it was just another girl until I took a good look at her face. What immediately captivated my attention were her beautiful aqua -blue eyes that just popped out and stared intently into my own. It gave me chills to see such a sight and right before my eyes. After helping her up and almost falling again because of some girl that bumped into her, I took a good look at her whole figure. She had a great skin tone that contrasted with her eyes perfectly her ski was a bit tan, while her chocolate brown hair was cascading down to her mid-back. She wore a pair of white jeans that fit her perfectly and a black lace shirt that left her great shoulders bare. I caught sight of a charm necklace pendant around her neck that was one or two shades darker than her eyes. I was truly amazed at having this exotic beauty.
We talked a while and it turned out that she had all of my exact classes. I couldn't help but show my enthusiasm and thanked whoever it was that assigned her these classes. As we made our way to 1st period i had no idea what came over me but I decided to be bold and told her straight forward " You know Korra you're not like other girls... I like it."
I was starting to regret my decision to for being soo bold, until I saw her smile at me and blush the tiniest bit. Right then and there I decided that that was my favorite expression. It was just so adorable to see her blush like that. Wow I just met this beauty and I already had a humongous crush on her, I just hope that she'll like me back.
ASAMI POV-
Ahh! I just knew that this was going to be a great first day of school. I don't know why I was ever nervous about not being with my best friend in any classes or lunch. So far this day could not have been going any better I mean I have half of my classes with Korra and lunch. Plus I just met the best guy I've ever seen. That fall was the best thing that has ever happened to me, because it led me to meet Bolin! He was soo sweet and lovable. Not to mention easy-going and extremely funny. He was so dorky after the fall too , it was just soo adorable, that I couldn't stop giggling at whatever he did because of how flustered he looked. While having this awesome encounter with this spectacular guy, I couldn't help but glance over to see how Korra was doing with the guy that she bumped into. What I saw didn't surprise me at all. I saw Korra talking to a similar looking guy to Bolin, and I could tell that she was forming a crush on this guy, because of the way that she was acting. I smirked knowing that I was right about the guys at this school.
So after my encounter with Bolin we made our way towards 1st period and Bolin walked in first with me behind him, Korra in tow, and Mako in back of Korra. Almost everyone was in the class except for us and the teacher. Everyone was talking and minding their own business. That is until Korra and I walked in causing all of them to each turn their whole undivided attention to us. The room was dead quiet as we walked in farther to the room. That silence only lasted for about a minute or so though because next thing we know they are all whispering to each other and giving Korra and I the same looks as this morning. I instantly knew that Korra was shaking with anger and frustration at seeing everyone getting into their business. I knew that it was not going to be a pretty sight to watch for the sake of the students that were gossiping. Seeing that Korra had a short temper and a pet-peeve towards eavesdroppers.
Bolin and Mako seemed to notice this, unlike the rest of the class whose whispers were progressively increasing, and soon asked me "Hey what's wrong with Korra? She was fine just a minute ago, and now she's super stiff " ,Mako asked showing true concern for my best friend. I couldn't help but think how perfect he and Korra would be together. My thoughts were then interrupted by Bolin adding to Mako's statement, "Yea, Asami she looks really pissed for some reason. I sighed knowing that if the teacher didn't show up soon Korra would confront the class head on without any care as to what people thought about her. " Yea she just hates having people eavesdropping or talking about her." They both nodded and Bolin turned his full attention to staring at me, which I didn't mind at all. While Mako went to Korra's side to help her calm down. While studying them for a few moments, I couldn't help but think how perfect they were for eachother.
KORRA POV-
The last thing I needed right now was some god damn eavesdroppers. I mean seriously is this going to happen in every single class? Right when I was in the middle of exploding from within, Mako came up to me, blocking my view of the annoyingly curious students.
"Korra please calm down. I know that they could be infuriating but just ignore them and they'll get tired out whispering." I then focused my attention to Mako's amber orbs and saw pure concern and pleas in them. I sighed and nodded letting him lead the way to two empty seats, that were beside Asami, I took the seat next to Asami and Mako took the seat next to mine, while Bolin was seated at the opposite end of Mako and next to Asami. I was still annoyed that the whispers hadn't stopped but progressively got lower, I soon sighed in relief at seeing our teacher walk in. She was wearing a button down green shirt with a pair of matching pants. She had an icy look in her eyes and had two scars that went across her right cheek and had short grey hair. "Good morning class, my name is miss. Beifong but you already knew that. I am introducing myself because I see that we have two new students in our school." Her voice was just as icy and cold as her stare. I quickly took a disliking of this teacher, but at the same time I strangely respected and admired her. Beifong then proceeded to rumage through some files until she found two bulky ones with might I say quite a lot of papers in them. Everyone stared intently at the files while Asami and I exchanged looks anticipating what was coming next. We then looked down shamefully knowing that we both got into a bit of trouble at our old high school before being expelled. It was always because someone pestered me about my late parents and I snapped with Asami helping me, or with Asami getting pushed over the edge because of her mother's demise and I would help her. Overall we would get into a fight periodically which was what convinced the principal more to expell us.
No one's eyes left the files that is except for Bolin's and Mako's who just stared at the us, with worried expressions ,while we were staring at our hands as if they were suddenly extremely interesting. We were anticipating the time when the teacher would call us up, when the dreaded time came. "Korra, Asami would you come up to the front of the class." Asami and I exchanged panicked looks and then looked over at Mako and Bolin who had frowns on their faces and were worried for us. We made our way to the front and Asami stood on the scary teacher's right side, while I stood on her left. She then proceeded to open both of our files and read through our afterschool activities and records. "Well I see here that you two got into fights often at your old high school." As I looked straight on I refused to look in Mako's direction afraid that he was going to reject me. But instead saw everyone else's faces and saw their immediate shock. Yea I bet they didn't expect Asami and I who looked like two fashionable girly girls, who seemed fragile to be soo tough and rebellious. But really we only fought when those people insulted our parents' deaths.
Beifong seemed unfazed by the class' reaction and continued " I see that all these fights in both of your cases were caused for the same reason every time." Asami and I both went wide-eyed seeing that this teacher was about to announce to the whole class that I was an orphan and that Asami had no mother. I prayed that she wouldn't just out right say it but I guess that the world loves proving me wrong because what the teacher said next caused everyone except Mako and Bolin to gasp. " Would you ladies like to say the reason as to why these fights were caused? Or shall I ?" I crossed my arms and frowned while Asami just wringed her hands together and looked down. " Alright then , I guess I shall tell the class." I could see that everyone was at the edge of their seats while Mako and Bolin just each stared at us as if they knew what the teacher was about to say, and gave us sympathetic and understanding looks. Which caused me to wonder why they would know what was going on in their lives. " All the reasons as to why these two ladies here got into fights was because, Asami here would get insulted from people making fun of her mother's death." Everyone once again gasped and Asami got an irritated look on her face but soon disappeared when she made eye contact with Bolin who was apparently consoling her from across the room with just one look. I was analyzing them when the stoic teacher pulled me out of my thoughts with the announcement of my cause for the fights. " As to Korra's cause to fight was because people would pester her about her parents' death and tell her that her parents deserved to die." Everyone was one again shocked at hearing this more so than when Asami's reason was announced. Great! Just great! This teacher just had to announce this to the whole entire freaking class. So that gossip about us could spread like wild-fire. I was fuming at hearing this teacher's careless revelation and had my fists now balled up while I still had them crossed over my chest. When suddenly I felt that same intense feeling that someone was staring at me intently. I snapped my head to the side and that's when I saw Mako. I noticed that his face was anxious and his eyes filled with understanding, concern, worry, and possibly...care? I wasn't sure, but what I did know was that Mako looked like he wanted to just bolt from his seat and envelop me into a securing and protective hug. " Now ladies I can see why you two got into so many fights and I don't blame you two for doing it." What?! Really? After saying all that she's just going to say that she doesn't blame us for doing it?" But I will allow no fighting in this class and I can assure you two that no one in this class is going to give you any problems on those sensitive topics." Asami and I were left flabbergasted. We were totally not expecting that at all. But Miss Beifong continued with giving the class all our information. "Now it says here that you too take martial arts. I can see how this caused you two to fight so skillfully and win in every fight as it states here. I t also says that you guys took gymnastics and are still taking classes outside of school." Asami and I just shrugged while everyone was left dumbfounded from this new found information about us. While Mako gave me a look of appreciation, respect, admiration..and ... awe? No I must be seeing stuff. Gosh Korra get yourself together or else this guy is going to be the end of you.
MAKO POV-
Wow, just wow. This girl is amazing! Apart from being beautiful and adorable she's not one of those prissy girls. She can actually defend herself and fight! I swear every new thing that I learn about this girl makes me fall for her even more. The whole time that Beifong had them up there I couldn't take my eyes off of her. I wanted to see how she would react to what the teacher was about to reveal, because she was standing in the middle of the class with Asami on one side and Korra on the other. I knew that this wasn't going to be a very nice experience for Korra and Asami, because knowing Beifong she doesn't take mercy or pity. I assumed that the teacher was going to reveal something personal of Asami and Korra because of the two thick files that she had in her hand.
My suspicions were correct when Beifong first announced Asami's record. I was truly surprised because Asami looked very sweet and innocent. But once Beifong stated the reason I knew that I would've done the same thing as her. Then Beifong moved on to Korra's file, I wanted to know so bad what caused Korra to fight although I think I know what, since earlier she told me that she and Asami both got kicked out of their last high school for something personal. Finally the teacher started speaking again and announced something that shocked me. She said that Korra had gotten into those fights because those idiots from her old school would mock her parents' death and they would tell her right to her face that they deserved to die! I swear right when I heard that I felt a yearning to just shoot up from my seat and take this beautiful girl into my arms and protect her from all the idiots and jackasses from this school. I also felt my blood boil extremely high at hearing that those dumbass assholes would say that to anyone especially Korra! The girl that I haven't been able to stop thinking about since that incident this morning.
I could see that Korra had tensed and was getting pissed at this teacher's attitude. I couldn't blame her I mean I even felt pissed at her. But Beifong didn't stop there she surprisingly said that she wouldn't blame them for doing what they did, and then stated that of course these girls take martial arts and gymnastics. I couldn't help but feel a new level of love for this girl...wait woah...love? No that can't be right I practically just met her. Yet I can't stop thinking about her , or how it would be if we dated , having her in my arms, protecting her from harm and from all those jackasses that dared to hurt her. Oh man, I'm in deep.
~~~~~~ TIME SKIP~~~~~ Now all four of them are in gym class~~~~~~
KORRA POV-
Second period had finally ended. But I can't say that the class was bad because Mako was there. As soon as we walked into second period the same happened as in first period. But this time the teacher was already in the class and told everyone to sit down and shut up. I immediately took a liking to this teacher because he didn't put my personal shit out in the open for the whole freaking world to see. He introduced himself as Mr. Tenzin. He went right down to business and assigned lab partners that would work together for the rest of the year. He assigned Mako and I together. Ahh, I think I love this teacher even more. Mako and I had looked at each other when we were told this and smiled like crazy. For the rest of the class we spent it stealing glances towards each other. He would stare at me and I would catch him from time to time, we would hold the stare and then he would smile and turn back towards the board. I couldn't help but stare at him then. I mean come on! He had a perfect sharp jaw that was just begging to be kissed. Woah ok Korra calm down. But I can't help it I mean he's muscular and lean but not too much. He has the perfect amount of muscles. By then I would've been staring for too long and he would catch me causing me to blush and turn back around. Then the whole cycle would start all over again. So overall I would say that second period was a success.
Now it was for my favorite class. GYM! I know why would I being fashionable and all that shit like gym at all. Well you see I'm not like other girls and neither is Asami per se. I mean yea we both have rocking style , but we do like to get our hands dirty. I love sports and I'm pretty good at them especially football. Since, before my father died he used to be a football player in his high school, and would spend his free time with me teaching me the rules, plays, and techniques. So I guess I never stopped playing it afterwards, I guess it makes me feel closer to him.
While Asami is a car junkie. I swear that girl knows everything there is to know about cars like I know about sports. She spends some of her free time dragging me to the racetrack to race cars. I must admit that it's pretty awesome. She also loves to go to her dad's factory and repair cars. So in conclusion we are pretty awesome and badass. On top of all those hobbies that we have we love to take gymnastics and martial arts. So of course I'm going to love gym class!
GENERAL POV-
Korra, Mako, Bolin, and Asami parted ways once they got to gym class to change clothes. Korra changed into a Victoria's Secret Sequin Yoga Tank with the number 86 on it, a pair of studded denim shorts,and black converse. She had her hair in a waterfall braid that cascaded down to her middle back.(AN:LINK IN PROFILE) While Asami wore a Union Jack crop top with the british flag on it, vintage jean shorts, and white converse.(AN:LINK IN PROFILE) Once they were all dressed for gym all the girls entered the gym from the left side and all the guys entered from the right side. They all got together in a big circle. But of course Korra and Asami were the center of attention which annoyed them both to no end. The guys were standing next to them telling them to just forget about it and ignore all the stares and gossip. Just then the gym teacher barged into the gym and yelled in an authorative voice "Alright everyone gather around!" Everyone in a panic scattered to where he was and stood at attention. The gym teacher then proceeded " My name is Coach Tarrlock and you will call me only that! Not Mr.T, not Mr., and certainly not Tarrlock. Is that clear!" Everyone immediately all answered in unison "yes Coach Tarrlock!"
He smirked and then went through some papers that he had set up. "Hmm I see that everyone has their abilities written down here... Except for miss Asami Alvarez and Korra Gutierrez."
Korra and Asami groaned knowing that they were going to have to show the whole gym class just what they can do.
"Well will Korra and Asami please step forward?"
Korra and Asami made their way through the sea of students and stood in front of Coach Tarrlock.
"Okay, now I see that you two are new to this school, and I also see here that you two are excellent in gymnastics and martial arts?" Tarrlock said this while looking at his papers the whole time and only looking up at them when he finished stating what they were good at.
Korra was the first to speak up seeing that Asami wasn't going to anytime soon. " Yes. We are."
"Ah, I see. Now will you two do me the honor of proving that you are actually talented in these departments.
Korra clenched her jaw, not liking that he was doubting their skills.
"Sure but what exactly do you want us to do?" Asami asked.
"Why that's simple I want you two to show us just how good at gymnastics you really are. Then I myself will go hand to hand comback with each of you in martial arts, since I am an expert at that."
Everyone in the room was quiet seeing that Korra and Asami would have to fight the teacher to prove that they are fit to be experts in martial arts.
But Korra and Asami went unfazed because they both knew just how good they were in martial arts, and took this as a challenge. So they exchanged smirks, which everyone noticed and thought that they were crazy to think that they could beat an experienced teacher, and replied with an " It will be our pleasure" from Asami, and a "Bring it on" from Korra.
First they were asked to perform the same gymnastics trick in unison and in sync. They did just that since they were used to doing the same tricks in gymnastics class. They went and stood at one end of the gym while the class was standing to the far wall on the sidelines. Mako and Bolin were both watching excitedly and curiously to see just how good these girls were.
Once the coach gave the nod they both breathed in and started their trick. (AN: sorry I didn't write what trick they did, cause I have no idea what each trick is called. So just insert your own combination of tricks. :D)
Once they finished their performance they ended up at the other end of gymnasium. With everyone's jaw on the floor, and the coach smiling broadly. Everyone erupted into applause and made the girls blush.
"Well I must say that I'm impressed with you two ladies. I might suggest that you two join our cheerleading squad since there's no gymnastics one."
Both girls smiled and nodded.
" Well shall we test your martial arts skills?"
The girls once again nodded and Asami was up first. She had to go up the coach's son who was an expert martial artist too while Korra would go up against the coach.
Asami and the boy bowed to each other and commenced the fight. The coaches' son didn't waste any time and lunged at Asami with a powerhouse kick, which she easily dodged and kicked him in the lower back. The boy fell down but merely got up again, with a bruise to his pride. The fight went on for about 5 minutes given that Asami had the advantage the whole time and had some help with her agility from gymnastics. But once she saw an open shot to have the boy pinned she wasted no time, and had him on his back in seconds. Bolin just stared at Asami with pure joy and delight.
~~~TIME SKIP OF ABOUT 10 MINUTES~~~
Now it was Korra's turn. The coach and her bowed to each other as well and circled one another waiting for the other to take the first shot. But none did, and they kept circling each other for about another 30 seconds when the coach decided to just make the first move, seeing that Korra had no intention to. He threw a punch directly aimed for her head, in which Korra side stepped with surprising swiftness and threw two punches to his pressure points around the arm and back. (AN: Kind of some Equalist moves, lol. :D) The crowd gasped at seeing the coach stagger back holding his arm. "I see that you know the more sophisticated and advanced form of martial arts." The coach said while panting. While Korra wasn't even breaking a sweat. "What can I say I've had a lot of free time." The class couldn't grasp the fact that Korra was talking to the coach as if he was just another student."Well I could see that you waste no time in getting to your opponents weak spots." Tarrlock said this while grimacing at realizing that he was losing to a student. So he tried to come at Korra with a different technique and lunged at her with both punches and kicks at the same time. But Korra was quicker and simply just dodged each punch and flipped through the air and landed in back of him. She took this opportunity to knock him down, and kicked his back sending him toppling down. Everyone in the room was flustered to see that Korra was so powerful in martial arts. While Mako smiled broadly at her with an approving look that said 'that's my girl'.
"Wow, I must say I underestimated you Korra. I wasn't expecting you to beat me."
"Well we all have surprises don't we?"
"Indeed we do."
After this face off, gym continued on. It was a lazy day in gym since the coach was sore from getting his ass kicked. Bolin and Asami had run off to who knows where to talk, while Mako and Korra just sat down inside on the bleachers talking.
~~~~~~~TIME SKIP AGAIN TO AFTERSCHOOL CHEERLEADING TRYOUTS~~~~~
Korra and Asami were now once again in the locker rooms getting changed into their tryouts outfit.
Asami was wearing a suri lace singlet, a pair of pink beachie shorts, black converse, and had her hair in a messy side braid. (AN: LINK IN PROFILE)
While Korra was wearing an Addidas college crop t-shirt with the number 72 on it, a pair of juicy couture black velour dolphin shorts, black converse, and had her hair pulled back in a fishtail braid. (AN:LINK IN PROFILE)
They then continued to make their way outside to the field , where the auditions were held. As they reached the field they noticed that the guys on the football team were practicing , including Mako and Bolin. The guys saw the girls and their mouths dropped. They couldn't help but see just how hot they were in those clothes.
The girls noticed Mako and Bolin like this and started to giggle.
The guys saw them laughing at them and closed their mouths while blushing.
~~~TIME SKIP TO DURING ASAMI AND KORRA'S TRYOUTS~~~
"Alright next up are Korra and Asami." The head cheerleader called.
Asami and Korra both stood up and waited for the head cheerleader to say the moves that they were to perform.
All the guys from the football team were now watching them along with all the girls in the cheerleading team.
Some of the guys were whistling and doing wolf calls at Korra and Asami which caused them to snicker and roll their eyes, and Mako and Bolin to narrow their eyes and scowl at the guys.
"Alright girls... I want you to do a round off back handspring." The co head cheerleader said while staring at the girls straight in the eyes with a menacing look.
The girls exchanged smirks and performed the trick perfectly.
Causing everyone to applaud but the co-head cheerleader to snicker and yell
"Front handspring step out, round off back hand spring step out, round off back hand spring full twisting layout!"
People all around looked at the co-captain like if she was crazy, even the guys who didn't even know what that meant really.
The head cheerleader looked at her co-head and narrowed her eyes. "Amber what has gotten into you!"
(Back where the guys were at)
"Hey Mako do you know why Amber's being so crazy towards Asami and Korra?"
"I have no idea bro.. But I think it has to do with her boyfriend whistling at them."
"Oh"
"Yea"
(Back to where the girls were at)
The co-head cheerleader looked at the captain and said "What if we are going to hold tryouts we are going to need the best people."
"But still Amber that's a dangerous trick to do on this field!"
Amber smirked and said if they can't do it then they could just leave and save themselves the embarrassment."
This ticked Korra off . "You know what we can do that trick! So prepare to eat your words!"
Asami pulled Korra back a few feet so that they would have enough room to perform the trick and also to keep Korra from lunging at this girl.
Asami looked at Korra "You ready to make her swallow her words?"
Korra smilled mischievously "Ready as I'll ever be."
They then continued to do the trick perfectly leaving everyone with their mouths open.
The co-head cheerleader was frowning with her arms crossed. While the head cheerleader stood up and announced "Congratulations! You two are on the squad!"
Korra pumped her fist in the air , while Asami squealed.
~~~~~Time Skip to Asami and Korra driving home~~~~~
"Wow this turned out to be an awesome first day of school !" Aasmi squealed letting go of the steering wheel causing them to swerve to the side.
"Asami! Please keep your hands on the steering wheel!" Korra exclaimed while holding on to the car door handle for dear life.
"Ohh! Sorry!" Asami apologized sheepishly.
"It's okay, I'd just like to make it home alive that's all."
"Oh haha, you're so funny." Asami mocked.
"Yes, yes I am." Korra retorted. "But you're right it was a great first day, aside from the incident in first period."
Asami's face saddened a bit along with Korra's. "Yea."
"But let's change the subject. Let's not get sad after having a good day at school."
"Yea you're right." Asami perked up. "So are you going to say that I was right about the guys in the school ? Hmm?"
Korra sighed "Yes Asami, you were right."
"So what'd you think about Mako."
"Well, he's everything that a girl could ask for. He's sweet, caring, protective in a way I guess, and just all round handsome." Korra said with a dreamy far away look on her face.
"Oh Korra you've got it bad!" Asami screamed , while laughing at her best friend.
"I know. 'sigh' he's going to be the end of me."
