The sun was going down and Korra and Bolin where walking on the beach looking for stones,
" So… you and Asami seem kinda close" bolin said trying to start a conversation.
" uhmmm.. i guess" Korra said as she picked up a big rock.
bolin stopped and grabbed Korra by her shoulder, "look i really care about her and i don't want to see her get hurt".
Korra stopped and looked at him " do you think i was planing to?"
" well no… but maybe… i don't know… its just i havent seen her smile like today for a long time".
Bolin started walking again.
" i think she really likes you.. she looks different at you than she did when she looked at mako."
"Mako?".
" ye mako…my brother… didn't she tell you she broke up with him two weeks ago?"
Bolin said and picked up another rock.
" OHHH…. That mako!… Ye she told me about him yesterday, honestly he doesn't sound like a very nice guy."
" He is a good guy, but he has his problems" bolin said.
" Hey bolin…" Korra said putting her free hand on his shoulder."you're a good friend, and don't worry i wont let anything bad happen to Asami".
Bolin smiled at her " thanks i appreciate it, i think we have enough stones right now, lets go get back and make some dinner". Korra smiled and they walked back towards the group.
Bolin quickly builded a fire. He seasoned the fish and wrapped them in aluminum foil placing them in the fire.
When they all finished their meal, they sat around the fire enjoying its warm welcoming flames.
The sun was completely gone and the stars where shining bright in the dark sky.
They sat there talking with each other for hours, Asami sitting in-between Korra's legs leaning her back against her chest, her strong arms firmly wrapped around her.
She felt so safe when they sat like this, She was falling hard for this girl and she knew it.
Asami got up and walked to the black guitar case who was lying in the sand. She took it and sat down in-between Korra's legs again.
"may i?" she said looking at korra.
Korra nodded and placed her hands around asami's waist ones more.
Asami opened both locks with her thumbs, hesitated a few seconds before opening the whole case.
Inside the case their was a completely black guitar with white markings around the sound hole, korra's name engraved in the body of the guitar.
Asami traced her fingers over the name before taking the guitar out of its case.
When asami took out the guitar, she saw a peace of paper laying at the bottom of the case.
She took it and opened it.
" My love,
I don't think you understand how important it is for me to hear the sound of your voice everyday. When i'm with you i'm happy When we hug, i don't want to let you go. If i could give you one thing in life, i would give you the ability to see yourself through my eyes, only then you would realize how special you are to me. I know things aren't going that great between us right now, but we can get trough this. You are my world and i want to make you happy, So i bought this guitar for you, a token of my love and i hope whenever times get hard, think of the good moments we shared together. We are ment for each other, forever together… always.
your's always Michel "
At the bottom of the note there was a small picture glued to the side. On the picture Korra was standing next to a girl, she had her arms wrapped around the woman, her eyes where closed and she was kissing her cheek with a lovely smile on both there faces.
The girl was pretty, she had long blond hair but what really stood up in the picture where her eyes.
Her eyes where had two different colors, one eye was dark green and the other had the color of dark brown.
" Is this her?" asami said looking at the picture.
" Yes.. That would be my ex-girlfriend Michel." Korra replied trying to eye Asami's reaction.
" she is really pretty"
"Not as pretty as you" Korra replied kissing the croock of her neck.
Korra stood up pickt up the cooler and moved, it placing it next to asami. She sat on top of the cooler and took the guitar from Asami's hand and started to tune the sound. She pulled her fingers across every string and slightly adjusting the keys until they where al in tune.
" what do you want me to play?" she said looking at asami.
" i don't know… don't you have something you made yourself?"
"i do but… it's not that great. Besides i might be a bit rusty."
" I'm sure it's probably not that bad"
" Okay than… here goes nothing"
(warning: before you read any further, for maximum effect please open youtube, search for : hey michel - Anouk.)
Korra closed her eyes and led out a deep breath before her fingers pulled across the strings.
Everybody was dead silent all listening to the sound of Korra's guitar.
Korra eyes were still closed with a concentrated expression on her face, as she opened her mouth, and started to sing.
"Hey Michel how's life are you okay….I wonder if you ever think of me.
It's been 5 years since that kiss…I can help but reminisce.
Hey Michel do you remember.
She lifted her head up and her hands quickly picked up the phase pulling her fingers faster across the strings.
"We walked the street to the beat….Hand in hand you and me.
Smiling faces so in love, Hoping that they all could see.
We belong together you and me against the world.
We found out the hard way 'cause it wasn't meant to be."
She slowed down the tempo and opened her eyes looking at the fire in front of her.
"Now it's you and her I see.
You were my first and worst love…And so it only could go wrong.
But ain't that just the way you learn…Hey Michel, I just wanted to let you know."
She looked over towards Asami and smiled.
"That someone else has stolen my heart!"
Korra looked back in the flames
"And now another girl has caught your eye.
That doesn't mean I don't think of you."
Korra closed her eyes again
"I am just hoping that she'll treat you right.
Do you remember…How we walked the street to the beat.
Hand in hand and you and me…Smiling faces so in love.
Hoping that they all could see.
We belonged together you and me against the world!
We found out the hard way cause it wasn't meant to be.
Now it is you and her I see."
She opened her eyes and looked down.
"It was just a silly dream.
Hey Michel…. do you remember."
She slowly moved her fingers cross the string and ended the song.
She looked up and everybody was staring at her, Alex and Bolin with open mouth. Nobody said a word and she placed down her guitar to the side and kept staring at the fire.
"I told you it was depressing" Kuvira finally broke the silence.
" Korra! t-that was amazing!… i didn't know you could sing!" asami said.
"You liked it? korra said raising her brow.
" Are you crazy.. i loved it!" Asami said and kissed her on the lips.
" Wauw… Korra you can really sing, do you also sing for a living?" Bolin spoke up.
" Not really.. i'm a dancer" Korra said with a smirked, and moved back at her old spot behind asami.
" oh thats amazing! a girl of manny talents! i see, OH-OH…let me guess… your in some AWESOME breakdance competition, traveling trough every state, And probably beating everybody there is!"
"Nope not quite.. Keep guessing dough your close" She said leaving a smal trail of kisses on Asami's shoulder blade.
Asami felt her heath rising but tried to keep a straight face.
" Okay so No break dancer…. You're doing hiphop shows its clubs."
" Clubs yes… Hiphop no"
Bolin was completely in thought trying to figure out the next hint.
" How can this be so hard…. Can you give me a hint?"
"JESUS BO! FOR GOD SAKE…. THEY ARE STRIPPERS!"
Opal said in a irritated way.
"OOH… shit totally makes sense now… so Avatar is your stage name… ok-okay…
Do.. boys… even like a stage name like that?"
Opal face palmed herself "BO she isn't stripping for guys!"
"o-oh.. uhmm… well thats interesting" he said completely not knowing wat to say.
" Its ok, if you want you can come back stage and watch one time"
"HE IS NOT!" opal yelled.
And they all started to laugh.
The fire almost died out and they decided to call it a night. Opal left with bolin and offert to take Alex and Ginger home, because it was on their way. They said there goodbyes and took of leaving Korra, Kuvira and Asami with the car.
"Do you want to go to the apartment or should i drop you of with Bataar?" Korra asked .
" You can drop me at Bataar its close by, and i kinda promised him to come." kuvera said shaking her shoulders.
" Ok ill drop you of first and than ill drive you home" she said looking at asami
Asami nodded and they got in the car.
They drove for ten minutes, until they stopped to drop of the Great uniter.
"Cya tomorrow for practice, oh and Asami Keep an eye on her please" Kuvira said and closed the door.
"i will don't worry" asami said and smiled.
Kuvira nodded and took of inside a building.
"So where to?" korra said and turned her head.
"Take a left at Kyoshi bridge, than just follow the road from there."
The avatar nodded and they drove of towards the Sato mansion.
