Full chapter name: the third time they got caught making out
First they had been talking about Mako hating coffee (it was just gross) and now his lips were locked with hers and they were pretty much on their way to defiling the couch. It was all fun until Mako's leg started slipping off the edge of the couch and when he tried to find purchase on the side of it, his leg slipped and he fell on the floor quite ungracefully with a yelp and a stinging pain on his left shoulder.
"What are you doing down there?" Korra laughed, looking down at him.
Mako looked up at the ceiling and tried to mask his embarrassment. "Oh, you know, I thought it was time to lay on the floor and think about my place in the universe."
She laughed again and moved to sit on top of him. Suddenly the pain in his shoulder was completely insignificant. "Am I really that bad a kisser?"
Mako had to stop himself from saying you're the most amazing kisser ever your lips are like water in the middle of the desert I'm just an idiot and shook his head. "Quite the opposite. The couch didn't want to cooperate with me."
Korra's laugh vibrated through his body and he was weirdly glad he fell for the change in positions. "Stupid couch. I think the floor might be friendlier."
She leaned forward and started pressing kisses to his jaw. "Definitely," he answered, placing his hands on her waist.
They easily picked up where they left off and didn't hear the door to his apartment open nor the heavy footfalls of his brother coming home from a training workout.
"Maaaaaakooooooo! Guess who's the best brother ever? I stopped for your favorite—"
Korra sat up abruptly, hair disheveled, and Mako, flustered, flushed, and surprised, looked to see Bolin standing in the middle of the living room with two bags of food in his arms and a scowl on his face.
"Again? Can you two at least leave a guy a warning or take it to the room? This is the third time this week!"
A/N: I hate that these are so short, but the next few are marginally more substantial (or so I think). I don't want to spend too much time working on making them longer because this always leads to me giving up. The next three are going to take a small dive, including a little angst (GASP). I hope y'all like! See you soon! :)
up next: the fourth time they said i love you
