I thought I'd upload a quick chapter as a thank you for all the lovely comments and follows , so thank you, their all very nice and I appreciate the support.
"Jinora!"
"Mum…Korra...Asam" I looked around, guilt evident on my face, as I searched for any presence of my father. It took a while before my mother finally put my mind at ease, informing me he wasn't there. But having them all there as if they were waiting for me added to my discomfort.
"How's Kai?" Korra spoke really quickly before ushering me to sit down, and as I sat down slowly I noticed the suspicious glances between the three of them as they sat down sipping tea.
"How did you-"
"Mako told me" she said taking a sip before looking at my mum who was looking back and forth between the two of them. When her eyes finally rested on me she coughed and offered a warm smile, which made me shift uncomfortably. What where they up to?
"I know it must be hard sweetie, but right now being friends seems to be the best option" as soon the words left my mother's mouth my gaze meet the floor and stayed there.
I looked down and pictured my father's face when I so weakly gave in and agreed to break up with him. But then Kai appeared, the look of pure devastation when I told him why I had been avoiding him, why I wanted us to break up. But then a blush soon followed, resting on my cheeks when I remembered that look, a passionately sincere heartfelt look.
As the conversation continued to remain to a halt after I decided not to respond and spend the few silent minutes staring at my feet, I gave in. Ugh why does this have to be so difficult? I already knew they knew. And if my relationship is going back to where it started, a secret, I needed the same people on board. Korra gave it away her eagerness to find out what I've been doing, Asami was no better glancing between me and my mum. My mum was the worst, her massive school girl grin plastered on her face made the secret enjoyment she got from the drama of my love laugh not so subtle.
"Okay,so how did you know" I said nonchalantly, as they continued to share knowing smiles. I didn't quite wait for a response continuing my rushed explanation. What I had been doing moments before didn't help the compulsion I shared to get it all of my chest.
"Mum, I'm sorry , I promise I'll tell dad as soon as exams are over. I can't do it, I can't break up with him" I stood up straightway, all I wanted to do now was throw myself into some more studying for exams. But I was stopped dead in my tracks when i was met with comforting words.
"If it makes you feel less guilty I'm still supporting you, we all are. You and Kai are meant for each other" I was greeted with a hug from Asami which Korra and my mother later joined.
"Asami's right,I know you two have a connection" I nooded as I smiled at their words. With Korra and Asami both at college now it felt good to still have them around supporting me.I needed this after all that has happened in the past week, I needed to know I wasn't alone in all this drama. I hated going against my father but I was sure more than ever that I didn't want to lose Kai either.
My moment of bliss was halted as soon as Korra grabbed at my top.I gasped steeping back and eyeing her suspiciously.
"Nice hickey" she said trying her best not to laugh. I on the other hand couldn't hide my flustered expression as I pulled my top back up trying to hide the small red bruises present on my collar bone.
"That's how you guys knew "I said wrapping the scarf I had absently placed on the table when I came in around my neck. This action was presented as pointless as my mum bombarded me with an onslaught of inspections, yanking my top further down and observing each mark intensively.
"Mum stop" I said still trying my best to make my way to my room.
"You're going to have to cover that up before your father gets home, he's going to be here in a minute." My mother informed me firmly, as I replied with a small nod.
"I'll ignore how low that one is"
"Mum can you stop"
"Kai really did a good job"
"Korra please"
"Wow, you're really going red"
"Asami, not you too"
