(A/N): I wanted to upload this chapter 2 days ago but didn't work :( but better late than not uploading at all. :)
(A/N): Merry Christmas! I'm sorry for the massive long wait but my finals are finally over and I didn't fail any of them. Oh yeah. :D So my present to all of you awesome people is a new 'longer' chapter and I wish all of you lots of love, luck, a good time,... etc.
Korra's POV:
A couple of hours later the party ended and everybody left practically half drunk, to go back to their homes. I'm sleeping over at Asami's tonight so I can help her with cleaning up the mess that was created by the crowd. We're both too exhausted to even think about cleaning everything tonight. You would've thought that the butlers clean up after one of Asami's many 'wild' parties. But no! One of the deals she made with her dad was that when she wants to have a party, she will have to clean it up herself.
So here I am at 2AM, laying in the exact same bed where I took care of Mako's scratches and black eye earlier this evening. Trying to fall asleep. keyword trying. Everything in this room reminds me of Mako.
There was where he sat and there was where I felt to the floor when he hit me with a pillow. Let's not forget the door where I kissed him on the cheek before going back to the party. I sigh before rolling over, my back facing the door . All kind of thoughts running threw my head. What if Mako didn't saved me from Tahno? What was Tahno planning to do with me? I roll back over so that I'm laying on my back now. Sleep. That's the only thing I wish for right now. All those question can be answered another time, the only thing I need now is sleep. And that's exactly what comes a couple of minutes later. A well deserved night of sleep.
-The next day -
"Kor? Sleepyhead? wake up! " I roll over trying to shield myself from the noise.
"Common Korra, I know that's early but you promised so get your lazy ass out of bed." The lightly annoyed voice says. I take my pillow and place it atop of my head.
"Okay, you asked for it." The person walks out of the room, making me fall back in sleep.
*Splash*
I jump right up in the bed. Wade awake. " What the...Asami!" I sternly look at the black haired beauty next to the bed with an empty glass in her right hand. If looks could kill, she would've been dead by now.
"I tried to wake you up nicely at first but seeing that didn't help..." she smiles.
"I'm awake now and completely drenched."
"Great." she claps her hands together." go dress yourself and I will see you in a bit." Asami says and leave the room.
"Ugh, morning are evil why can't other people see that." I muttered to myself before walking into the bathroom. I took a quick shower and put on the clothes I came with. I let my hair lose and applied some mascara.
" done." I smiled at myself in the mirror before walking out of the room and down the stairs. I look around to find out in which room Asami could be. She didn't say which room exactly.
"Miss Korra." I turn around to search the source of the voice and find out it's one of the many butlers Asami has. " Miss Sato can be found in the dining room." The butler says .
"It's just Korra, you don't have to be so formal around me and thank you."
"You're welcome miss Korra." Well it looks like he won't stop with the 'miss'. I turn around an want to walk to the dining room when I remember that I don't know where it is.
"It's down the hall to your left, miss Korra." The same butler point to the hall on my left side.
"Ow uhm, thank you. Again." and this time walk into the right direction. I arrive in the dining room and see Asami sitting in one of the chairs with some cereals in front of her.
"Finally, what took you so long?" Asami says.
"Well it would've helped if there was a map in the hall with all the rooms on it." I roll my eyes.
"You will get used to it. Let just have breakfast so we can start with cleaning the mess they left behind." Asami says and takes a bite of her cereals. I sit down on the chair in front of Asami so that we're facing each other.
"So what happened between you and Mako?" Asami asks out of the blue.
I swallow my cereals. " Where did that came from so suddenly?" I ask confused.
"When I went to wake you up you were mumbling his name in your sleep." She point her spoon to me. " so I thought that something must have happened after I told you to find him and tell how you felt about him."
"Well..." I hesitate.
"That doesn't sound good. What happened? and I want to hear the truth, young lady." Asami sternly says.
"Okay mom." I joked.
"Spill it."
"It's just...when you told me I should tell him how I really feel, I went to look for him directly. When I didn't find him I went up stairs, knowing he didn't like parties that much. So I thought he would be in your room or something. He wasn't there but a member of the football team was sucking off a girl her face and if I didn't came in...I think they would've used your bed for you know what." Asami made a disgust face.
"That my friend is disgusting. Couldn't they find another room? Ow well nothing happened. Go one." She shrugs her shoulders.
"I made fun of them and went back to look for Mako somewhere else when Tahno came and asked about his teammate. I told him what was happening in your room and wanted to walk away but he stopped me and kind of tried to hit on me. He took my wrist and tried to get me to follow him but I didn't want to and kicked him. he became mad and slept me in the face. That's when someone pushed him on the floor. They got in a fight and Tahno's teammate came and pulled them off of each other. That's when I saw that Mako was the one who pushed Tahno to the floor." I explained.
"Wow okay so 'this' all happened under my roof without me knowing it? How dare he abuse you? What's wrong with that kid! Let me look at your wrist." She pulls my left arm toward her and looks over my wrist.
"Kor, I think it's bruised and I mean not just bruised but really bad bruised." for the first time I look at my wrist. It's red and on some places even blue/purple. It stings a lot. I didn't even acknowledge how much it actually hurts.
"It's okay. Just give it some time to heal and I'll be as good as new." I smile toward Asami to assure her that I'm fine. " And Mako was worst. He got this nasty black eye and some scratches from Tahno. I took care of it directly after the fight ended." I smile remembering what happened after I took care of his eye and scratches.
"Why are you smiling? it's creeping me out." Asami says.
"Just something I remembered of that night."
"You're blushing. What happened? " Asami eagerly ask.
"We got in a small pillow fight and basically told that we like each other. And I may have given him a kiss on the cheek when I left to go back to the party."
"Ugh you two are going to be the dead of me!" Asami dramatically says.
"How so?"
""You two are so cute together, you defiantly like each other but don't do anything about it!" Asami exclaims.
"Common let's finish breakfast so we can start cleaning." We both ate our cereals and went to clean up the mess.
-After they're done with cleaning-
"I'm dead." I let myself fall on Asami's bed.
"Me too. Thanks for helping me out. It would've been a lot worse if I needed to do it all by myself. You're the best." Asami let herself fall next to me.
"No you are." I yawn. "I never thought I would be so tired by just cleaning up."
"Yep-p." Asami says popping the 'p' at the end.
I take out my phone from my pocket to see I've a text message.
From: Mom
To: Korra
Honey , when are you coming home? x
From: Korra
To: Mom
On my way, be there in a bit. :) xx
I click on send.
"Who are you texting?" Asami asks curios.
"Mom." I answer, looking over to her. " I need to go home."
"Okay I'll see you Monday at school." We gave each other a hug and I went to my car. I but my bag with my dress in the trunk and step in the car before driving off.
-At home-
"Mom! I'm here." I yell.
"Kitchen!" I walk toward the kitchen seeing my mom sitting behind her laptop. Probably looking over her work hours.
"Hey mom." I place a soft kiss on her cheek before taking a seat next to her.
"Hey honey, glad you're home save." She looks up from the laptop and gives me a smile. "How was it?"
"Well the party was fine but left a big mess. " I chuckle before standing up and getting a glass of water before placing it next to mom. "What about work?"
"Busy. More than else. There was this man who drank too much and abused his wife. She has cuts everywhere. Why would he do that to his own wife? Oh well we'll never know exactly why." I pull my sleeve more down trying to hide my wrist from my mom. If she saw it she would go crazy.
"They just don't know when to stop, I guess." I shrug my shoulders before standing up. "I'm in my room if you need me."
"Okay honey." She looks back down to her laptop and takes a sip of the water. "Thanks for the water honey." I smile and went up stairs to my room.
My phone trills. I take it out of my pocket and smile, seeing that it's a text from Mako.
From: Mako
To: Korra
How's your wrist?
From: Korra
To: Mako
It stings a bit. Asami said it's badly bruised but I'll be fine. :p
What about you're black eye?
I click on the send button.
From: Mako
To: Korra
Awtch. :(
make sure you lay some ice on it and my eye is doing a lot better.
Thanks to the woman that took care of it ;)
Luckily his eye is doing a lot better. I text him back right away.
From: Korra
To: Mako
Will do :) and you're welcome.
It was the least I could do after you practically saved me from Tahno.
I walk back down stairs seeing that my mom is still busy on her laptop. I open the deep freezer and take out an ice bag.
"You're hurt? " Mom ask.
"Nothing to worry about. I'll be fine." I smile and walk fast out off the kitchen before mom will ask more questions.
Back in my room I place the ice bag on my wrist and the stinging feeling slightly fades. My phone lights up once again and on the screen pops up another text message.
From: Mako
To: Korra
Basically we said that we liked each other.
So you want to go out?
Is he seriously asking me out with a text message? He got nerves.
From: Korra
To: Mako
Wow, so you're going to ask me out with a text message?
From: Mako
To: Korra
Well yeah, but if it's not like you imagined it then come open the front door. :)
You're not serious are you? I place my phone back in my pocket and run down the stairs to the front door. I open it and the first thing I see is a dozen lavender roses.
"These are for you. They say that the lavender rose traditional is used to express the feeling of love at first sight. So I thought ' What could be better to describe what I feel." Mako says smiling. " I hope you like them?"
"Like them? You mean LOVE them. These are amazing. How did you know what they meant?" I ask surprised.
"Well, I did my research." He smiles.
I chuckle." They're beautiful. I never saw anything more beautiful. " I honestly say.
"I did." Mako says blushing slightly.
"Are you blushing?"
"What?! Me? blushing. Nah" Mako tries to cover his face with his scarf.
"To answer you're earlier question. Yes. I would love to go on a date with you."
"R-really." He coughs in his hand. " I mean... Really? "
"Really." I assure him.
"Then I'll get you tomorrow at 6PM."
"It's a date." I smile and give him a kiss on the cheek. " That's for the lovely roses. I'll see you tomorrow." And I close the door with the biggest smile on my face and a dozen roses in my hand.
"Who was it? I didn't hear the bell." Mom ask coming out of the kitchen before stopping abruptly. " From who are those roses?"
"Mako gave them to me...and asked me on a date. " I smile.
"Ow honey, that's great! My little girl is going on a date! Common let's put those roses in some water." we both walk toward the kitchen and placed the lavender roses that Mako gave in a vase with some water.
(A/N): They're finally going on a date. :D I hope you liked/loved this chapter, let me know in a review. I'll probably upload a new chapter on the first day of the new year :) . And last but not least what would YOU like to happen in this story? Merry Christmas everyone xx
