This is a part of my Tales series. Taking inspiration from the Last Airbender episode, "Tales of Ba Sing Se". I'll be producing two simultaneous versions, one based during TLAB and revolving around those characters and one based on LOK and those Characters. Find them in that series' specific category. Also check out my LOK fanfic: The First Avatar (one of the characters in the LOK tales is an OC from there, she'll be getting her own tales and may appear in others)

Genres will vary from tale to tale, but will include, Romance, Humour, Angst, Tragedy and and Family. All Tales will be T-Rated.

These Tales will be brief but frequent (when possible) and may contain spoilers to TLAB and LOK. I will inform you of spoilers and if possible, the episodes they are from.

I do not own Avatar. I hope you enjoy!

Genre: Comedy/Romance

Spoilers: None really but watch Revelations and it's following episode to be safe.

Timeframe and Location: En-route to Air Temple Island after Bolin is rescued.

Tales of The Legend of Korra

Tale of Bolin: 1

Wishful Thinking

Ahh Korra.

Bolin was having a hard time getting her out of his mind, it had been love at first sight for him and the feeling had grown stronger after she saved him from the clutches of the Equalists. In his hands he held a single flower and a small cake in a bag, gifts of appreciation for the young Avatar.

Bolin could see it now! He would find her, sitting alone in a small secluded garden, staring starry-eyed at the full moon as she gently swept a hand through the pond, disturbing the crisp white petals on its surface. He would sneak up behind her and gently cover her eyes.

"Guess who." He would say, keeping an air of mystery in order to entice her toward him.

"Bolin." She would say, longing in her voice. He would lower a hand to her chin and gently tilt her face so the two may stare into each other's loving gaze.

"I have a gift for you, a token of thanks for your gallant rescue"

Her eyes would flash with happiness and her cheeks would glow a warm pink, "Please Bolin don't thank me! I could never leave you to those monsters! My heart would not be able to bear it…"

"I feel the same for you, but never the less I am a man whom repays his debts"

He would present her with his single red flower "A flower, its beauty reminded me of your own" he would then give her the cake, "and a sweet for you, I made it myself. I know how much you like sweet things"

She would blush again and accept the gifts, laying them gently beside her, "I do love sweets…which is why I'm glad I have the sweetest thing in this world, you my Bolin"

She would gently pull on his shirt, bringing his lips closer and closer to hers until they touched, leaving the two young lovers to show the other their feelings beneath the full moon.

…At least that's what Bolin hoped for, suppressing his blush and clearing his throat, he lept on to the pier as the ferry made its return trip to the city.

Walking toward the temple Bolin couldn't help but think, "Will my daydream come true…?"

"…Or was it just Wishful Thinking?"

I was requested to write a piece on how Bolin thought would happen with his gift. I think it turned out pretty damn good!

Please review!
