Hey nerds! I'm sorry it's been so long. Flu is terrible here and school along with soccer is crazy. :^/

Any ways, ch.4. Enjoy!

Mako woke up light-headed. "Ugh" he groaned while he sat up. He looked around and nearly screamed. This was NOT his and Korra's bedroom, yet the room did seem familiar. "Oh no." Mako mumbled when a cheerful Bolin scamped into the room. "You up, bro? I was thinking that we could start training a little early, since Korra won't be available later." He said as he walked over to the cabinet. Mako's face twisted into a puzzled sour face. He, Bolin,and Korra had not pro-bended since Korra was pregnant with Raye. " Hey Mako, do we have any good food?" Bolin asked as he skimmed through all the food, cutting Mako from his 'WTF' moment . Mako took a minute to process his surroundings. " I'm in our old apartment. " Mako told himself out loud. Bolin tossed him a confused face. " It's not that old. We got it 13 years young!" Bolin shot out. Mako looked around the room, remembering the fun times he's had in there. He smiled a bit."Bo, what's going on?" Mako asked suspiciously. Bolin turned and faced his brother with a questioning look as he opened a bag of fried chewnansi. "Um, I'm not sure what you mean. I'm getting a snack and Korra is at the training gym. Oh, yeah! And your on your lazy butt. Get up !" Bolin raised his voice and threw a chewnansi at Mako. Mako looked at Bolin, looked around the apartment and came to a conclusion. "I'm dreaming!" He told himself. "It's just a dream." He whispered as he pulled the blanket back up to his chin. "2 things bro; first, why are you on the couch? Second, what's a dream? Whats going on with you? Tell me or I'll waste some more perfectly good chewnansis!" Bolin yelled, throwing a fistful of the fish crackers in his mouth.

Mako sat up and pulled the blanket off the couch. "Is everything still here?" He asked his bro. Bolin started thinking his brother needed serious help. "It was never gone bro... Do we need to go to the doctor?" Bolin asked very seriously.

Mako shook his head. "I'm just feeling a bit out of the normal today." He told Bolin, then went upstairs. He followed the hallway to the room he remembered so well. He slid open the screen and walked in. Immediately, Mako put his hands onto his nose. "Motherfu-"he yelled before holding his breath. Apparently he and his brother had never heard of " hygiene" for back then, they were setting themselves up for suffocation. Mako made his way quickly to the closet and grabbed his clothes. He then ran faster then he could ever remember running, just to get out if that room. Korra would NEVER let any part of our home turn out like that! He thought. He got ready in a deviant amount of time but, unfortunately, had to use the bathroom. Not at all wanting to find out what that room was like, Mako just went downstairs to meet Bolin.

The drive went by quickly and before Mako knew it, they were at the gym.

Grabbing his equipment, he ran inside, remembering all the time and effort he put into this. Oh spirits he loved it. He rushed through the doors and thats when he saw her. Korra was wearing a light blue tank top and her uniform pants, which consisted of whites, reds, and oranges. Her hair was up in a pony and she had her front pigtails down. " Hey city-boy! Ask Bolin why we couldn't train tomorrow, it's so early! Haven't I told y'all before that the morning is evil?!" She spat out. Mako dropped his stuff and ran over to Korra, pulling her into a hug. " I'm so sorry, Korra!" He said, truly wanting her to forgive him after last night. She pulled herself free and eyed him. "Bolin scheduled the morning session, but I appreciate your apology?" She said, making it sound more like a question. "Let's get to work guys!" Bolin clapped his hands as the doors closed behind him. Korra walked over to him. "If you ever take control over Mako and give us morning practices again, I swear to the spirits I will kill you. Okay, bud?" She asked, poking his chest. "You got it, sir!" He asked as he saluted her. She giggled. "Good. Lets get started!" Korra said, walking over to her post. She immediately started flipping and sending water streaming at Bolin while also taking blows now and then."Korra! You should be resting! You're pregnant for crying out loud!" Mako yelled, trying to keep her from harming the baby. "Um, what the hell did you just say to me?" Korra asked as fury built up in her eyes. "I-um-I-" mako started. "Knock-knock? Is this republic city's future pro-bending champions?" Asami poked her head through the doorway, saving Mako from Korra's rage. "Hey Asami!" Korra said after she froze Bolin to the spot, since he kept throwing things at her when she was busy being mad at Mako. "What brings you here?" Korra asked. She liked Asami but there were times she wanted to snap her neck. Asami smiled, having no idea what Korra felt towards her. "I came to see my baby. " Asami said as she walked over to Mako. Mako took a step back. Oh my spirits. This is really happening. No joke. Oh my spirits. He kept telling himself. Asami wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. He remembered that kiss. Oh, of course he remembered that kiss. He loved the way she melted onto him. He loved the way her mouth tasted of the ocean. He loved the way she moved to fit him. He also loved it more when it was with Korra.

Asami broke the kiss and looked into his eyes. "Hi sweety." She smiled at him he smiled back at her the best he could and then gave into temptation and looked up to see Korra. She had dropped her head and turned the other way. "I-um... I have to get to training with Tenzin. I'll see you guys later." Korra stuttered as she grabbed her bag and left, forgetting Bolin was frozen. Mako realized that Korra must have liked him even before he liked her. No. That's not possible. He always liked her. No. That's not it either. He remembered that he always had a place in his heart for Korra. He had loved her. He still loves her. Mako thought back to last night. He burned her, he yelled at her. He hurt her. He wasn't there for her, supporting her when she needed it. Mako looked down to Asami, facing reality. "Asami, I've gotta go do something. I'll catch up with you later?" He asked her. "Um okay honey. I love you." She said with a small smile. "You too" he said, not actually lying. She's his sister in-law now so, yeah he loves her, just not the same way Bo does. "IM STILL FROZEN MAKO!" Bolin yelled as Mako ran out the door. "Asami, can you help him get out? I REALLY gotta go." He called back as he walked out of the doors.

Mako wandered the streets, trying to understand everything and process everything. He's not with Korra. They are still friends. Just friends. Not how he wants it to be. He started to let his mind wonder about last night. "Did I drink too much? Eat too much? Maybe I- " Then it hit him. "Mother of Aang! "

Mako took off at a dead sprint towards the gym to get his jacket. He always wore that jacket AND kept Raye's wish ring in there. He pushed open the doors to the gym and saw Asami kissing a frozen Bolin. Mako knew he should have been mad but instead he laughed. "I knew that would happen eventually!" He said, making Asami tear up. "I'm sorry Mako." She said."Don't be. It's better this way, Asami. Hey, Bo?" Mako turned to his brother, and put a fist in the air. "You serious bro?!" Bolin asked with a smile. "Yeah Bo. Hey, where's my jacket?" Mako asked them. Bolin thought for a minute then asked,"isn't it in your bag?" Mako ran and zipped open the bag. There it was! He picked it up and dug through the pockets. "C'mon!"he growled in frustration. His hands finally clasped around a small metal object. "Yes!" Mako yelled as he pulled the small shape out to examine it. He made a tight fist around it. "Mako, what is that?" Asami asked, confused. "You'll see." He said as he ran out of the doors and made his way towards the Air Temple.

Mako ran up to the from screen and knocked repeatedly until Pema answered. "Oh, Mako. Come in!" Pema invited him inside. The screen shut softly and he looked back at Pema. "Where's Korra?" He asked her. She made a small smile and told him she was outside training. "Thank you!" He yelled to her as he ran out back. To his surprise , Korra wasn't training. She was sitting on a bench near the bay, her hair was down and she seemed to be playing with the water. Mako ran over to where she was. "Korra?" He asked, wanting her to face him. She turned around and looked back at the ocean. "Hey. I wanna know something. Why'd you crack that joke about me being pregnant?" She asked. " That's why I'm here, Korra. I don't expect you to believe me, but last night, in the future, we got into a fight because you were pregnant again and we couldn't afford it. I was saying we should have it aboarded but you refused and out if anger, I hurt you. Bad. Our son, Raye, was asleep and you woke him up and left me, I made a wish and boom! I'm here now !" He explained. Korra raised an eyebrow at him. "I think you need to leave. Now. Go see a doctor or something. Please. You need help Mako, you're not well." Korra told him as she stood up. " I was prepared for this, Korra. I had a feeling you wouldn't believe me. You know what a wish ring is?" He asked her. "Of course I do! It's a water tribe tradition. Why?" She asked turning suspicious. Mako handed Korra the small ring that read 'Raye' on the front. She turned it over and read the back. 'Mako and Korra. Proud Parents.' She looked it over one more time, looked at Mako, then fainted.
