Chapter 14: Summer break

Korra (P.O.V.)

I feel like I'm in the movie high school musical right now that it's not even funny. Me and everyone else in the class are staring hard at the clock sitting above the teacher's desk, waiting for the final bell to ring signaling the start of summer break, and quite frankly I could use a break after this year.

Don't get me wrong there was some good things that happened this year, like the fact that I met Asami. That became my loyal best friend, and is now my amazing girlfriend. And every day when I walk through the hall where me and her met I sometimes get a little teary eyed. Call me melodramatic all you want but that's just how I feel about her so deal with it.

Another good thing that happened this year was when I made the basketball team. At first me and coach Amon had some bumps in the road but I showed him my worth to the team and he grew a liking to me and we got along without getting at each other's throats during practice. He even let me be point guard for some of the games.

My parents surprised me this year too, when they sat me down and told me that there was going to be a knew addition to the family soon. When they told me I was confused, I asked them were we getting a new dog to keep Naga company? But then they said no to keep you company and then I was even more confused because why would someone have to keep me company. This was literally the whole conversation,

Flashback

Mom called me downstairs to talk with her and my father. We gathered around the coffee table in the living room my parents sitting on the couch opposite from me. My mom came back into the living room with a tray of tea and I automatically knew they were about to tell me something important, hell probably something even life changing. Sorry there I go again being all dramatic but, foreal you know shits about to hit the fan when someone brings a tray of tea into the conversation.

My mom sits down next to my dad who seems like he's going to pass out any second now, his Carmel skin is almost to the complexion of the white couch he's sitting on and he sweating like crazy, he looks like he just saw a ghost.

My mom motions for me to grab a cup, "Korra I called you down here because I-we have some-something to tell you now this might be shocking and a lot to take in but please just listen okay."

I nod my head cautiously bringing the tea to me lips to take a sip and instantly regretting it 'Eww fucking hate green tea' I put the tea cup down and look at my dad Shakely try and pick up his cup of tea. He's trembling so much that some of the tea falls out of the cup. He takes a sip of his tea and lets out an unnecessary Ah. He awkwardly says, "T-this tea is good honey d-did you put honey in it?" He laughs at his pun and I can't help but giggle a little too.

My mom whacks him up the back of the head giving him a stern look which shuts him and me up. "Your joking right now really, this isn't even a joking matter."

"Sorry thought we needed a little icebreaker."

I finally speak up, "Please don't tell me your guys are getting a divorce!" I yelled jolting out of my seat.

My mom jumps up with me, "No! no honey we're not getting a divorce what I'm about to tell you will actually change all of our live's in a good way." I sat back down and so did my mom.

"Ok so…..what is it?"

My parents exchange a look, "Were going to have a new addition to the family." Mom said.

"I'm confused are we getting a dog to keep Naga company?"

"No more like to keep you company."

What do I need company for I'm 15 years old, and plus if I wanted to be with someone to keep me company that's what friends are for? I asked, "What?! We're getting a Nanny I can babysit myself."

"Geez, see she got her air headness from you Tonraq." My mom joked pointing her finger at dad.

"like father like daughter." My dad said smiling.

"No Korra you're not getting a dog or a nanny. You're getting a new sister or brother. I'm pregnant."

I gasp in shock but even though I'm surprised I crack a smile. "I-I'm going to be a big sister, really."

My parents nod their heads. "That's amazing when did this happen?!"

My parent's cheeks lighted up with a bright crimson from the question. "Uhh doesn't matter what matters is our family is going to be even bigger."

I leap out of my seat to hug my parents, "I love you guys!"

End of Flashback

Those were the good things that happen this year. But throughout this year there was also drama.

Mako had got his girlfriend Prego's on Valentines 'So typical'. And now he's probably going to have to drop out of school. It's a good thing I don't know this girl because me and her would be exchanging some words. She a stupid hoe. Mako dumb too I don't think he's ever heard of protection. But he's two thrusts too late now.

There were also rumors going around school that Tanho is Bi. But I'm not surprised he is a pretty boy after all. Like he literally wears mascara on his eyes like he's in some boy band, I knew he was something. I mean I am gay I can sniff out my own.

The last thing that happen recently was my friend Kara. I hate to say this but…..Kara died. She killed herself actually and it was all because of me.

She had left a note for me in my locker. It said that she was going to kill herself and how she was going to do it. The note told me why she was doing it too. Kara was killing herself because and I quote, "I couldn't stand to see you with someone else knowing I couldn't have you. And I didn't want to ruin the relationship so I had to get rid of the problem which was me."

I never took notice in Kara like she wanted me to, and I never knew she felt this way about me and in the note it said that she had felt this way about me for years I felt guilty and I still feel guilty now. But I know that Kara would want me to be happy.

I went to the funeral to pay my respects but, her parents didn't want me there and I don't blame them. I'm just happy I was able to be Kara's friend.

So that was my freshmen year and if this year was a roller coaster than I don't even want to know what next year will bring.

Ring!

The sound of the bell snapped me out of my daze. Everyone around me Immediately makes a b-line for the classroom door. My now former Spanish teacher yells, "The bell doesn't dismiss you I do!" But everyone ignores her and continue to leave the classroom.

I quickly grab my book bag off the back of my chair and start making my way to leave but I'm stopped by my Spanish teacher. "Not so fast."

"Ugh c'mon Mrs. Francesca." I groaned.

She hands me an envelope that has my parents' names on it. I don't care at the moment, cause all I'm trying to do is leave here so I can find Asami and kiss her goodbye before she gets on the bus. And I'll be damned if this woman stops me. "What is this?" I ask.

"The office told me to give it to you I don't know what it is but you should open it with your parents, now you can go."

I groan again stuffing the envelope in my book bag as I leave the class room and heading towards Asami's locker. I hate it when teachers pull this shit, like why couldn't you have given it to me during class instead of after when I have to leave, assholes I swear.

I walk around the corner of a hallway, and I catch Asami putting in her locker combination. I decide to sneak up on her since it takes her like ten tries to open the locker anyway.

I'm about to pounce on her when she says, "Hey Korra." And she wasn't even turned around.

"H-how'd you know it was me?"

"Because I know your footsteps and plus, you do this like every day." She says opening up her locker with a swoosh. She turned around finally with a knowing smile on her face. I pout sticking out my bottom lip 'your no fun Asami.' I thought.

Asami put her arms around my neck and laid a chaste kiss on my forehead. Oh yeah did I forget to mention Asami got a little taller over the past couple of months she makes me look like dorf. But I still like her.

"Aww your so cute Kor."

"I hope that wasn't my goodbye kiss."

"Goodbye kiss? Korra there's going to be more where that came from during the summer we'll see each other all the time."

"Well then I'll need a better kiss to hold me over for the next one don't you think." I said pulling her flush to my body with my arms.

"Fine if I must…" Asami said seductively leaning into my lips.

Me and her were still going at it when I felt someone tap on my shoulder, I waved it off and continued to smother Asami's face with kisses.

"Uhh Korra…..Korra and Asami!" Bolin yelled yanking me backwards by the shoulder.

I wipe my mouth from the drool that lingered on it from me and Asami's make out session, "What Bo?! Can't you see were busy."

Bolin whispers, "Well I had to do something you guys were causing a scene, if I waited any longer to break you guys up then clothes would have been flying."

I look around the hall and some people were staring at us. I laugh awkwardly, "Haha uhh let's get out of here." I grab Asami's hand and the three of us make our way out of the school.

I walk Asami to her bus kissing her goodbye (for now) on the lips, as she climbs the steps of the bus. "Text me when you get home." She said waving goodbye to Bolin standing behind me.

"I will, see you later Sami." I said giving her a wink and in a result she blushes as I hear Bolin behind me say 'Aww'.

Bolin and I start on the path to my house, the hot afternoon sun beaming down on us, and there's times like this that I wish I owned a car or let alone had my licenses, I have my timps but I have to wait until I turn 16 in order to start classes for my licenses. We're walking to my house instead of taking the bus because well first of all I live like not even two blocks away from here, and secondly the bus I'm supposed to ride on is always crowded. We have to ride with the middle schoolers (and may I add are very smelly after gym class), and sometimes there would be random people that aren't even supposed to be on the bus. And there were times where there were no seats left and I had to stand up like I'm on one of those subway trains, except there's no fucking polls to hold on to so when the bus driver hits a bump, or makes a sharp turn your just fucked. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if one day a kid flies through the fucking windshield!

Bolin kicks a rock down the side walk absent-mindly as he says, "You know you and Asami are just too cute."

I smile from is compliment, "Thank you Bo. But you know nothing beats you and Opal, I already OTP you guys."

"Oh yeah what's our OTP name than?"

"Bopal, because it has your nickname and her name, it just fits perfectly." Bolin smiled from ear to ear kicking the rock even farther down the sidewalk.

"I like that, oooh let me give you and Asami one, mmm how bout…..Korrasami?!"

"Love it I'll tell Asami when I text her that you came up with that." We reach my house, and I start to scramble around through my book bag for my keys. But mentally slap myself when I realized I left them in the house again. "Fuck!"

"Forgot your keys again?" Bolin said with a smile plastered on his face, and I frown at him not really getting the joke.

He bends down and lifts up the welcome mat pulling a key from under it, he unlocks the front door then puts the key back where it was. Stepping inside the house he says, "Home sweet home."

"When did we get a key underneath the welcome mat. Wait when did we get a welcome mat…." I said looking down at the mat that I just now noticed was there.

"Oh Korra I pray for you sometimes now are we gonna play video games or not?" I nodded my head stepping into the house, as me and Bolin are greeted by my dog Naga.

Naga tackles Bolin to the ground and licks his face. "Geez Naga ok you can stop now!"

Naga gets off of Bolin, but charges at me, but I don't play dat. I put my hand out in front of her to get her to stop, which she does but licks my hand instead of tackling me. "Nice to see you too girl I missed you," I bend down and give her a hug, "Time for you to eat isn't it, come on."

I drop my book bag on the floor and head into the kitchen with Naga behind me. "Man she has gotten bigger over the past 7 months."

"Well I had her sense Christmas, dogs grow fast especially this bread because their part polar bear."

"What?! how does that even happen?" Bolin said probably thinking about a dog and a polar bear doing the nasty.

I shrug, "I don't know, but I refuse to think about it so don't ask anymore." I turn to open up the fridge but I'm stopped when I see a note on it that has my name on it. I pluck it off and read it,

To Korra: don't forget to feed the dog, wash the dishes, and clean your room this afternoon I expect them to be done. I'll be back around 7pm I had to go grocery shopping and I have a doctor's appointment, dad will be home around 5:30.

p.s. if Bolin comes over tell him I said hi J

p.p.s don't fucking trash the place just because you got a high score on some game, or I'll high score on that ass.

Love, Mom.

'Fucking hormones.' I thought after reading my mom's note. "Mom says hi Bo."

Bolin looks up from his phone, "Oh hey."

"She's not here now you doofus haha." I laugh.

Bolin and I are sitting on my beanbags in front of my Tv, Bolin pops in one of the Call of Duty games, and I take the opportunity to text Asami while the game loads.

Me: Hey Sami made it home.

Bae: good you didn't get hit by a car on the way home that's good.

Me: Lol yeah me and Bo are just chillen bout to play some video games, I wish you came home with us.

Bae: Why? you know I suck at video games ;)

Me: Lol that's why I want you here you can beat Bolin out of the water.

Bae: Lol whatever you just want me to sit on your lap.

Me: Well maybe I do want you to sit on my lap ;)

Bae: Hahaha Kor your too much, I would happily go over there but I would be getting in the way of you and Bolin's hang out time.

Me: Ahh were all friends here Bolin doesn't mine, plus he even gave us a OTP name.

Bae: Lol really what is it

Me: Korrasami, ani't that cute.

Bae: Aww that is cute J

Bolin taps me on the shoulder telling me that the games on.

Me: Ok I got to go but come over if you want to Mom and Dad won't mind.

Bae: Ok I'll think about it ;)

Yess she winked pretty much means she's coming over. I stuck my phone in my pocket, grabbing the game controller off of the floor, "Let's make a deal Bolin, if I kill you at least 20 times you have to wash the dishes and clean my room, but if I lose I have to do the chores and you get to boss me around for a week."

"That's stupid but, deal." We shook hands, turning to the screen and started going at each other like maniac's.

It was around 3:15 when me and Bo started playing, and now it's 5:00, and I lost the bet. 'I really need to stop making bets I can't win!'. "Damnit Bo you beat me again!" I shrieked throwing the controller to the floor.

Bolin shut the game off and looked at me an evil grin plastered onto his face. "Looks like you have to do all of the chores and I get to embarrass you."

'What?! I didn't say anything about embarrassing me I said boss me around!' I thought, my eyes going wide in horror. "Hey! That's not what I said you twisted my words around."

Bolin just shrugged shaking his head, "Quiet! You work for me now!"

"And now your acting like my boss, ok now I'm confused are you embarrassing me or are you my boss."

"Both, now go do your chores!" He said loving every minute of this, "Go clean the dishes first."

"This is my house you can't boss me around."

"Hey you made the bet I'm just living it, now shoo." He said that cheesy smile stretching from ear to ear as he shooed me out of my own room!

I make my way towards the kitchen feeling saltyer than Yue Bay. 'Can't believe I lost!' as I reached the bottom of the steps, the doorbell sounds throughout the house.

Ding Dong!

I groan lazily as I go and answer the door. "I hope this is Asami." I say unlocking the door with hope that it's my girlfriend only to have my hopes shot down when its only Kuvira. "Ugggghhh what do you want."

"Well geez good to see you too, Bolin invited me over here and plus, I thought it would have been a good opportunity to give you this." Kuvira said pushing past me to invite herself in. I swear my friends have made their selves way to comfortable in my house.

I take the sheet of paper from her closing the door behind me and locking it while I read it over.

Dear: Korra

It's Party Time!

Date: June 15

Time: 7-to whatever

Address: You know where we live fool, bring shit to burn from school!

I look up from the reading the party invitation completely dumbfounded. I walk in the kitchen to find Kuvira digging through the fridge, she pulled out a Pepsi, popped it open and took a huge gulp. I look at her with a raised eyebrow that basically screams, "You didn't ask" but yet again they do this even when my parents are right in front of them, and my parents don't even care. But if I were to just go in the refrigerator and grab just a bottle of water. Yes, water H2O something that I fucking need to survive my parents get mad and tell me to ask first like what the fuck man!

"So why do I need to bring stuff to burn?" I asked utterly confused.

Kuvira grabs another pop can this time shaking it up, "It's a bomb fire party duh! You just bring all of your old homework, umm workbooks, calculator, I don't know anything school related and then you just throw them in the fire to burn." Kuvira explained still shaking the can of pop.

"That's sounds awesome, and your parents are letting you do this?!"

"Yay there all for it, hey where Bo I want to give him his invitation," She giggled evilly, "And this can of pop."

"He's upstairs in my room, probably playing video games."

"Thanks I promise not to get pop on your Tv and game system."

"Please, that would be great." I say taking the dishes out of the sink to start washing them.

After Kuvira had went upstairs, I waited to here Bolin squeal.

I heard Kuvira say, "Hey Bo thanks for inviting me, I wanted to give you this in my appreciation." I'm guessing that she gave him the pop can because Bolin said, "Why thank you Kuv your so kind, oh and would you look at that it's my favorite flav-." I could hear the sound of pop shooting out of the can, "oooh you little- get back here!"

Bolin chased Kuvira out of my room and now they were running around the house, while Bolin chased after her.

I put the last dish into the dishwasher, starting it up and wiping down the counter, when there was another ring at the doorbell. I went to go answer it but Bolin stopped me, he had caught Kuvira already and locked her in the bathroom, one of the dining room hairs hooked underneath the doorknob.

His forest green V-neck t-shirt was soaked from the pop that Kuvira shook. "What?" I asked

"Did you know that Kuvira shook that pop can?" Bolin asked back his vibrant green eyes full of mischief.

I sigh, "Yeah."

He crosses his arms and a smile grows on his face, "Ok in order to see who's on the other side of the door you have to go through the doggie door," I open my mouth to protest but Bolin stops me, "And you have to act like a dog, barking and clawing you know whatever a dog would do."

"But that's not fair."

"Hey you made the bet now go!" He said pointing toward the doggie door that was for Naga but she grew out of it and is now too big. I huff getting down on all fours and crawling under the flap of the door. Surprisingly the door was wide enough for me to squeeze through.

I look up to the person on the other side and my jaw drops to the ground, and a wave of hot embarrassment hits me like a tidal wave. Asami stood above me her hands covering her mouth in attempt to suppress a laugh.

And I make it harder for her to keep it in because I start barking, and clawing at her legs. I crawl behind Asami, lifting up one of my legs to pretend pee on her like a dog would but I'm stopped when Bolin opens up the door. "Bad dog we don't pee on our visitors, get in the house." I set up on my knees beside Asami, stick out my tongue and panting like a dog. "Did you hear me I said get in the house!" Bolin yells playfully and I growl at him.

Asami finally burst out in laughter, "Bahahaha! What are you guys doing?!"

Bolin nods his head towards me indicating that I can drop the act now. I get up to my feet, "I Made at stupid bet I couldn't win and now Bolin can boss me around for a week." I said as we all walked back in the house.

"Well what you do that for?" Asami asked

"I don't know I felt confident I guess."

"Mhmm and look where that got you." Bolin said grabbing an un-shook pop out of the fridge.

There was a loud bang coming from the half-bathroom door, with Kuvira yelling on the other side, "C'mon Bolin let me out!"

"No! serves you right for fucking with me."

"Who's that?" Asami asked

"Haha Kuvira, she pranked Bolin and he locked her in there."

"Korra can you let me out please!"

"Only if you promise not to strangle Bo!" I said about to grab the chair from under the Knob. I whispered to Bolin, "hide."

He went down the stairs in the basement to hide. "Psssh I promise I won't hurt him just let me out."

I took the chair from under the door knob and out stubble Kuvira, "Where is the fucker?!"

"Hiding." I said pointing towards the basement door. 'Sorry Bo but this is payback from early.'

Kuvira ran down the basement stairs, Bolin was found immediately, and it was like the fire nation attacked again.

I make my way to my bedroom to clean up the potential mess that the two beasts made, and to clean my room as well, to be done with the chores for the day.
