Day 5 - Snowflake


"Y-you promise you won't go too fast?"

Korra sighs in exasperation with a roll of her eyes. "Yes, I promise! Now, would you just give me your hands?"

Bolin tentatively stretches his fingers out for her, nervously flinching as Korra grasps them tightly. She smirks at the panicked look on his face when she tugs him forward. "I've done this a million times. Trust me, big guy. Everything's going to be okay." She smiles reassuringly as she guides his hands to her waist. "Just don't let go, okay?"

"O-okay," Bolin stutters nervously as he grips her firmly about the middle. "No letting go. Right. Let's do this." His heartbeat quickens as she begins to move. "N-not too fast!" he cries. "It's my first time!"

"You're doing great!" she says, panting slightly with the exertion.

Bolin isn't so sure. He's never done this before. He wants this to be fun – it was even his idea! – but it's cold and scary, and his muscles are starting to ache. "S-slow down!" he shrieks, but Korra just laughs and moves faster.

Bolin clenches his eyes shut in terror, digging his fingers into Korra's waist. "K-Korra!" he cries out fearfully.

"You're okay! Keep going!"

"KORRA! I-I'm gonna–!"

He thrusts his weight forward, stumbling into Korra who screams as they nose-dive into a bank of snow.

"Sorry sorry sorry!" Bolin cries.

Korra groans from beneath Bolin's enormous body and attempts to push him off of her. "I'm never ice skating with you again."
