A/N Okay I'm sorry if you dont like this chapter one more thing its going to go past high school

I don't own LOK

Mako POV

I entered the building depressed. My grandma didn't take the news well either. Bolin was upset still he started to ignore my constant attempts to comfort him.

I saw Korra cheerfully standing there. I guess I was going to wreck her day too. Carefully I approached her.

" Korra I need to tell you something important", I started. She motioned for me to go on, "Well I'm joining the army and skipping the rest of the year." I scratched my neck and awkwardly stood there.

"What?" She whispered.

"Sorry" I said then I started to cry.

Korra POV

When he told me he was going the military I was shocked. I mean like what? When he started crying I got even more confused. Finally, I comprehended the whole situation, Mako was leaving.

The thing that worried me most was that he was going to die. My dad almost did when he joined. Two years after I was born he got shot in the chest. He was really close to dying.

I saw people staring at us. I have to admit it must be a funny sight, a boy crying on the new girls shoulder.

I pushed him off my chest. He looked at me. I leaned forward and kissed him hard.

"To remember me." I told him. He made a silly smile. I grabbed his hand and we walked to class.

Two Weeks Later

Mako POV

I was leaving. I stepped onto the plane that would take me to Iraq (I know its outdated deal with it).
