Hey! Heres the second chapter. I haven't seen that much interest in the story but I enjoy writting it so I will! Hope you enjoy! Disclaimer: I do not own the legend of korra or these characters just the story.
Chapter two: Booking.
The heavy metal doors creak open and the strong smell of cleansers and body odor floods my nostrils. I wrinkle my nose as we walk towards the booking desk.
Mako takes the clipboard with all of Kai's information and hands it to the lady behind the desk. She reaches a gloved hand forward taking the chart and begins typing the information into the computer.
"Have a seat." Mako commands sternly shoving Kai forward slightly. He stumbles a moment before glaring at Mako and taking a seat in front of the desk.
As the woman types, Mako turns to me, "I have to go brief chief Beifong will you be alright waiting here?"
I nod in response, "yeah I'll be fine."
He turns and walks away. The short haired woman behind the desk looked to me, "you can sit as well miss. This may take a little while". Kai turns his head looking directly at me with a slight smirk. "Uh thank you."
I sit in the chair next to him and she continues typing. Kai leans closer, still handcuffed and says quietly, "So Jinora, what were you doing with officer stick in the mud?" I chuckle at the name, "well I was going for a ride along just to see what he did and what it was like."
He smiled "well I'm glad you did." He returned to sitting straight again looking forward smile still gracing his lips. Heat floods to my pale cheeks and I look down in my lap glancing up to see the woman looking at me quizzically, one brow raised.
"Ok we need your finger prints so place your index finger on the scanner in front of you." The woman gestured to the rectangle screen in front of Kai.
"Well to do that I need my hands." He moves his arms to the side to show her the cuffs.
"Oh, let me get officer Mako to get those off." She stands revealing her short stature and walks in the direction of where Mako walked a few minutes earlier.
Kai turns to me again.
"You got to ask me questions, how about I get to ask you some?"
I shrug and he continues.
"You go to school?"
"Yeah. I go to republic city High school."
He nods, "what grade? "
"I'm a senior." He must like the answer because his smile grows, "I see so that would make you..."
"17."
He leans back best he can with the cuffs on.
"Cool. " his eyes lock onto my gaze and they look a bright green, but under the florescent lightning you can see darker shades within them. The woman surprises us by returning to her her seat, "ok Mako is on his way. "
He looks down and off to the side and my gaze returns to my lap light blush on my cheeks
Mako appears down the hall and walks to Kai. "Stand up"
Kai stands without a word and Mako grabs his wrist to unlock the cuffs. I hear a click and the cuffs release. Kai rubs his wrists, still red from irritation. He sits again and reaches forward placing a tanned finger on the scanner. It lights up and beeps seconds later. He pulls his arm back and places it on the arm rest of the chair.
"Ok a few more questions then we can get your picture and search done. So have you taken any drugs or had any alcohol in the last 24 hours?"
"No." He replies flatly
"Have you been arrested before and if so what charges?"
" Jinora already asked me that it should be on the report." He replied motioning to me.
I sit up at the sound of my name and the woman looks at me before sliding back to Kai.
" we just need you to confirm."
"Yes, once before same charges."
"Did you run from the officer?"
He fidgets slightly and replies, "yeah."
"Well you understand that instead of just the fine, you will need to be held overnight awaiting any further charges?"
He looks down, "yeah... I know. "
He looks to me from the corner of his eye and suddenly looks 10 years younger like a child who just got punished. I offer a small smile for comfort and he reciprocates with a smile of his own.
" Ok you are all set you can head over to get your picture."
We stand and Mako leads him to a wall where there are two outlines of hands.
"Alright lose the hoodie, put your hands on the wall and spread your feet"
"Shouldn't we at least go to dinner first?" Kai asked with a smirk. I could help but laugh and Kai looks and me, his smile growing and winks.
My laughter quiets when Mako looks at me sternly.
"Very funny. Now do it."
Kai grabs at the back of his hoodie pulling it over his head. The bottom of his shirt lifts slightly revealing his thin but well sculpted stomach. The pink tints my cheeks for the hundredth time tonight when his eyes meet mine again. He smirks knowing exactly what he was doing and why I was blushing. His hair was even more disheveled than before but I couldn't help but think it made him even more attractive.
He turned a placed his hands on the wall and spread his feet to the markers on the floor. Mako began patting him down searching for any weapons or drugs.
After his pat down we moved to get his picture. Standing in front of the camera, the corners of his lips turn up as he looks past the lens at me. A bright flash lights up the room.
"Sir you will need to look at the camera."
The screen on the computer still shows the previous picture, his eyes turned looking past the camera The heat crawls to my face and I do my best to fight it. He looks directly at the lens this time, smirk still there. Another flash and we move to get his clothes for the night.
A bright orange suit with brown rubber slipper like shoes. He steps out from changing and I can't help but wonder how anyone could make that look good, but he has managed just fine.
"Alright kid we are gonna finish processing you, just follow me to the waiting room." Mako directs him to a room full with rows of chairs.
"Alright turn around." He places the cuffs on his wrists again leading him to a chair. The room was pretty much empty except for two other people who were sleeping.
"If you need anything don't get up, just ask." Kai nods and looks up at me.
"Alright Jinora, ready to head back out?"
Mako asks looking at me. I glance at him then back at Kai.
"Well I uh... could I stay here?"
Mako's eyes widened and so did Kai's both shocked at what I said.
"What?" Mako asked still stunned.
"Well I thought it would be cool to see how this all works. You could just pick me up when your shift ends."
Kai looks down smiling wide.
"I guess so if that's what you want to do."
He stares at me a moment, " if you need anything or want to leave early, just call." I nod as he turns to walk out.
I sit in the chair next to Kai and he's laughing.
"What?"
"Oh nothing." He responded still chuckling.
"So why did you really stay?" He asked leaning closer to me.
"Uhh I was... um.." I stuttered out.
He simply laughed and leaned back in his chair with a satisfied smile.
Why did I stay?
