It had all started out as a friendly, run-of-the-mill goodbye kiss. Nothing out of the ordinary for the two of them.
But then he just had to say it, glint in his eyes, boyish smile and all. "You really can't stay away from me, can you?"
She huffed, eyeballing him carefully as she leaned away from their embrace. "That a challenge, city boy?"
"Not at all," he replied, shrugging. "We're too old to be playing 'keep away', anyway."
Korra grinned, ghosting her fingers along the length of his arm, slowly backing away. She was pleased to catch his eyes flitting downwards as they followed the path of her touch. "We'll see about that," she drawled, her voice colored by playful resolve. "Let's make a bet. About who can resist longer."
He looked skeptical. "Resist what?"
She peered carefully up at him from under her eyelashes, smirking. "Each other, of course."
"Are you actually serious?" The firebender's eyes widened almost comically.
"Oh, I actually am," she teased, turning to leave, making sure he could catch the swing of her hips. A few paces down she chanced a quick glance back only to see it was already working; intense amber eyes followed her every move and belatedly rose to meet hers when he finally realized he'd been caught. His cheeks tinged pink and she laughed silently to herself.
