"Okay so here's the plan, I will borrow a animal from work maybe a wild rat or something I must warn you I can't guarantee it won't have rabies and we set it lose in class where it should hopefully bite or scratch someone without really hurting anyone or if you don't like that we have plan B". Bolin suggested after we explained to him our plan to expose Korra to blood.
"I know I'm going to regret asking this but what is plan B?". Asami asked before burying her face in her hands.
"Okay you're going to like this one. Plan B is that we hire some ninjas and we get them…".
"Okay I'm going to stop you there". I interrupted.
"Well do you have a better idea?". he asked.
"Not really but I got to ask where the hell are we going to get ninjas?". I asked.
"The internet". He said smugly.
"Oh my gosh, I'm related to an idiot". Asami mumbled.
"Okay fine what do you suggest?". Bolin asked.
"Okay we have chemistry on Monday so we brake a piece of glassware without anyone seeing and we place it where someone will cut themselves, we only need then to bleed a tiny bit so it shouldn't be too hard".
"That could work". I said quietly.
"Fine but when you change your mind about Plane B…". Bolin started.
"We won't". Asami and I said in union.
"You two are no fun". He mumbled.
The next day was Saturday and I was home alone again because Bolin and Asami were meeting up with Howl and Jinora to work on their projects. I decided it was time to look for a job. So I decided to go out and buy a newspaper to look for a job. On my way there I saw Korra and some kid with shaggy brown hair. They were sitting on a bench eating ice cream. I walked over to them slowly and hid behind a tree. Using my vampire hearing I listened into what they were saying.
"So how was your date?". The kid asked.
"I told you it wasn't a date we were just meeting up to do homework". She replied without looking at him.
"Korra come on it's me you're talking to".
"Skoochy I love you and all but it's none of your business".
"Korra come on I have known you for six months and I have never seen you so flustered". Skoocy said smugly.
Korra had lived here for that long than why did you only come to school a week before we did, what was she hiding.
"Okay fine you want the truth".
"Very much yes". He said with a stupid crooked smile.
"Mako is the sweetest, kindest most understanding person I have meet in this city and he's properly the best looking guy I have seen in a long time". Korra said happily.
For a second I couldn't move, the whole place could have blown up and I still wouldn't have been able to move. Korra just admitted she liked me, okay maybe she didn't say that exactly but you don't call someone you don't like, kind, understanding and good looking.
"You mean the second best looking guy right?". Skoocy asked.
"Of course". Korra reassured him before rubbing his head and messing up his hair.
"Hey, hey watch the hair this doesn't just happen you know, it takes time". He complained as he tried to fix his hair which in my opinion didn't really look any better.
"Anyway it's not like we can have a real relationship I told you I try not to stay in places too long". She explained sadly.
"Why do you have top leave anyway why can't you just stay in the city forever and we can keep being friends?". Skoocy asked as he finished his ice cream.
"Hey, we are not just friends we are brother and sister and I promised that as long as I'm living here I will always make sure you are safe and looked after. Besides I already said if you wanted to you could come with me. I mean you know, you said it yourself there's no one who will really miss you and we look alike we could pull in off". Korra said in an attempt to persuade him. I guessed they had had this conversation before.
"Korra you know I can't do that my mom is here and this city is all I know I don't think I could leave even if I tried". He explained.
"yeah I know you're a momma's boy alright". She joked before gently nudging him in the side.
"Seriously you're not going anywhere are you?". Skoocy asked casually.
"I'm not going anywhere I promise". Korra reassured him. "Okay you finished you want to go get something for dinner later?".
"Okay can we get something with lots of meat I'm a growing boy and I need my protein?". He asked excitedly.
"Like of course who cares what they say about fruit and veg lets just go and buy a whole livestock shall we?". Korra said sarcastically.
"Okay but can we at least avoid celery?".
"Absolutely that stuff is a punishment created by Mother Nature and should be avoided at all costs". Korra said before putting her arm around Skoocy and pulling him close as if she was afraid someone would try to take him from her. As the two of them walked down the path I couldn't help but notice that she kept looking over her shoulder as if she was keeping an eye out for someone and she looked concerned as she did.
As she walked away with the kid I couldn't help but smile. I was seeing this whole other side to her, a side that no one but that kid saw. At that moment I could feel myself falling more and more in love with her.
