"Dakota, Kato, wake upp!" Asami called out while walking down the hall. She went by both boy's rooms and knocked on them and peeked her head in. She went by Kato's room first and knocked in "Kato, honey, get up" She said seeing him still lying in bed.

"But momm, I don't want too." He cried out.

"But Katoooo, you have too." She said mocking him. She walked in further and reached over to him and started tickling him.

"m-mom, no! Stop!" He said laughing. She gave in to his pleas and backed off her attacks.

"Well then get up." She said chuckling.

"Fine, fine." He said rolling out of bed. She walked to the door and turned around.

"And please remember to brush your teeth." She left and went across the hall to Dakota's room and entered. He was already up and dressed putting on his shoes.

"Good morning mom." He said looking up at her.

She smiled and came and sat on his bed. "Morning baby. How'd you sleep?"

"I slept, fine momma." He said sitting next to her. He began getting his school bag together.

"Kota, honey." She started, "Since school is starting back and your break is over, I want you to make some friends, okay? I know lately you haven't been in the best mood but I really think you should make some." He sat back down next to her and looked at her smiling.

"I will mom."

"Okay pooh bear." She said his face dropped

"Momm," He said in distaste dropping his head back.

"Oh sorry, sorry I forgot." She said laughing

LOK
Okay, kids, you have your lunches, right?" Asami asked them as she pulled up to the kids drop off at Republic City Elementary.

"Yes ma'am." they both said. She finally pulled up to the unloading zone and Kato opened the car door and got out. Before Dakota got out Asami stopped him.

"Remember what we talked about earlier, okay?" She said looking back at him. He shook his head in agreement and got out. She waved them and blew them a kiss goodbye.

They were greeted by one of the teachers as they walked to the front of the school. "What'd mom talk to you about this morning" Kato asked looking over to his brother as they walked through the front doors. Dakota shrugged his shoulders,

"Nothing really." He said walking through the hall. Kato was going to respond until he saw his best friend Cameron. He put on a huge smile.

"Kato!" Cam yelled waving him over. Kato ran over to him and dapped him up.

"Cam! Wassup man." He said walking away with him to class. Kato looked back and waved bye to Dakota. Dakota watched him as he walked away. He then looked around the hall and saw how everyone had someone to talk too. He sighed and shook his head. The bell rang and he began to walk to class. He entered his classroom and was greeted by his teacher which also was his Great God Uncle.

"My main man Kota! How are ya?" Bumi asked him rubbing his head. Dakota smiled and laughed. "I'm good Uncle Bumi." Bumi was his favorite teacher and person at the moment. He took his seat and waited for Bumi to start class.

LOK

Asami was on the way back home to do some work since she's able to work from home or her office. As she pulled out on to the main road by the school her phone buzzed. She picked it up and read who it was from.

Text Message: Korra: Hey wanted to know if you wanted to still come apartment looking with me?

As she read it, she heard a loud blow of a whistle. She looked up and saw it was from the cross guard and she slammed on breaks, dropping her phone on the floor. She hastily apologized and put her hand up to signal it was her fault. She waited patiently still feeling like a kid being chastised while the guard shook his head letting the kids cross. While she waited, she thought about going to see Korra or not. "I mean, what's the worst that could happen." She bit her bottom lip while thinking it over. She took a sigh. "Fuck it." she said out loud and called Korra. She dialed her number and waited for it to ring.

*Ring* *Ring* *Ring*

It connected. "Hello?" Korra said over the phone. Asami began to feel butterflies in her stomach. "Why the hell am I so nervous."

"H-Hello?" The voice called out again. Asami's eyes got bigger when she realized she was just sitting on the phone.

"H-Hey Korra." She stuttered.

"Hey, yourself," Korra replied.

"So, I called because I wanted to take you up on your offer. I can meet you at your hotel if you'd like and we can ride over...together?" She said turning the end of the statement into a question. The cross-guard final waved her through, and she lifted her foot off her break and began to drive again.

"Yeah, that fine! I can share my location with you by text. Hold on." Korra said. From what Asami could hear it sounded like Korra took the phone from her ear and began patting her thumbs on her screen. Within a few seconds, she heard a vibrate on her phone.

"Sent!" Korra said cheerfully. "Wait, how long before you get here."

"About 15 minutes, If you're at the "R City Hotel"," Asami said as she put her left turn signal on.

"Yeah that's where I am, You don't remember from the other night? Korra asked.

"Well I was pretty much carried into an elevator and into your room within seconds, so I didn't really catch a glimpse of the hotel." Asami said laughing.

Oh, righttttt. Korra said dragging out." So, I guess I'll see you soon?" Korra responded.

"Yeah." Asami said. "Hey, Kor, let me get off the phone I just dropped the boys off so I'm driving right now."

"Alright see you soon." The phone disconnected and Asami put her phone down.

LOK

"Shit she's 15 minutes away and I'm not even dressed!" Korra said hopping up. She quickly went into the bathroom and brushed her teeth. She pulled out a plain gray shirt and some dark-colored jeans and her white sneakers. She quickly put that on and sprayed on some cologne.

She made sure to smooth out any wrinkles she had in her clothes and tried to tame her curly hair. After she looked herself over she realized that she looked good. She sat on her bed and watched tv waiting for Asami to call or text her to let her know she's outside. She felt excited or was it nervousness? She then felt a pang of sorrow. "This could have been me and Asami 10 years ago looking for our first apartment together." She then began to smile. "Man, that would have been a rollercoaster." She said laughing. Thinking about how different their tastes were back then, and how impatient she was and still is. "Damn, I hope it'll turn into reality one day. Us and the boys. A nice house off by its-" The vibration on her phone cut her off mid-thought. She looked down at her phone and picked it up.

Text Message; Asami: Hey I'm outside in the parking lot." Korra read the text and smiled. She responded "Okay!" And grabbed her keys and wallet and headed to the elevator.

LOK

Korra walked through the front doors of the hotel and put her hand to shade her eyes from the sun and she looked around for Asami. She spotted her car and she jogged up to it. She approached the driver side and tapped the window. Asami's head rose up and she smiled. She rolled down her window. "Whatcha doing? Get in."

Korra shook her head. "Nah, we're gonna take the Jeep I rented."

"Oh, no Korra it's fine." Asami said waving her hands.

"Of course, it's not. I invited you I don't want you to waste your gas." Korra responded back.

"Okay." Asami said giving up her fight. She turned her car off and stepped out. "Where'd you park?" Asami asked. Korra pointed in the direction of a blacked-out Jeep. It was lifted and had mountain tires. "Shit, that's a nice Jeep, Kor." Asami said as they walked over to the car.

"I know right! I think I'm going to buy it off them. It's too nice to let it go." Korra said opening Asami's door. She walked back to the driver's side and got in.

"Well, which apartment complex first?" Asami asked as Korra cranked up the car.

"The 4 Nations apartments. It's about a five-minute drive from our HQ." Korra said backing out of the parking space. "They said they have 3 availabilities so it's perfect for Mako, Bo and I."

"Does it come furnished?"

"I'm not entirely sure but it was an option." Korra said as she made a right turn out of the hotel parking lot. "But from the pictures, it seemed really nice and spacious." Korra added.

"Did you check the price of rent." Asami asked. She looked over at Korra who was giving of a nervous grin.

"Well you see…" Korra said trailing off. Asami just rolled her eyes a blew a puff of air.

"Korra, so you just said fuck how much rent was?" Asami said laughing.

"Well, I mean I do have money." Korra said laughing.

"Touché, Touché." Asami said. She placed her elbow on the window seal and leaned her head against her hand. She reveled in the moment feeling as if she was 20 again riding around with Korra. Korra put on her left signal which woke Asami from her thoughts. Korra turned into the apartment parking lot. She pulled in to the future residence parking and turned the car off. She unbuckled her seat belt and looked over at Asami.

"You ready?" She asked smiling.

"Yep." Asami said back taking off her seat belt and opening her door. They both got out and went inside the Leasing Office.

LOK

They entered the Leasing Office and seen a gentleman in a gray suit. He looked up when he heard the bell chime over the door. "Well hello and welcome to the 4 Nations Apartments. How may I help you?"

"Uh, hi Mr. Cosimo?" Korra said coming up to him reading his name tag.

"Yes." He smiled. "How may I help you?"

"I called up here yesterday for a tour of your available apartments."

"Ah yes, Ms. Korra? You wanted to view three of our apartment suites?" He asked looking at them both.

"Yes, sir." She said smiling.

"Right this way." He said motioning them to a side door out the office.

LOK

The door clicked as Cosimo unlocked it with the key. He turned the knob and ushered Asami and Korra in. He let the door close behind him and began the tour. "So, as you can see this is our Magnolia Style apartment. It is an open concept floor plan, 2000 square feet and is 3 bedrooms. He said standing in front of them. "As you can see there is an open sightline from the kitchen to the living room. If you look to your right of the kitchen there is your dining room attached. Down that hall, you will find the master bedroom and the other two-room. The master has it's own en suite and the two other rooms share a 'Jack and Jill' style bathroom. Feel free to explore I'll be in here if you have any questions." He said finishing out his speech. Korra and Asami both walked down the hall to the three-bedrooms. The first stopped at the master bedroom and walked in.

"Wooww." Asami said in amazement.

"I know right." Korra said following up. The master bedroom was very spacious with tall celling's.

"And vaulted ceilings too?" Asami said "You outdid yourself with this one Korra."

"I meannn." Korra said dusting off her shoulders." She walked over to the closet and opened the door. When she opened it, she found that it was a full walk-in closet. "You gotta be kidding me. Asami come look at how big this closet is." Asami came over and her eyes got big.

"This is big as hell." Asami said.

The closed the closet door and walked over to the bathroom. The bathroom was nothing short of extraordinary. It was just as spacious with a large shower with the rainfall showerhead. It had a control panel for the heated flooring and jet streams. Next to it was a stand-alone tub and across was a 2-vanity sink. Both were stunned and at a loss for words.

They came back into the hallway and checked through the other two rooms that were also spacious. "This would be good size rooms for Dakota and Kato." Korra thought to herself. She shook those thoughts clear from her knowing that it was to early to be thinking like that.

They finally found their way back to the living room where Cosimo was sitting on the couch. He got up and readjusted his suit. "So how do you like it?"

Korra smiled, "I honestly love it." Cosimo smiled back.

"Well that's great after I show you the other apartment-style, we offer we can talk numbers."

"Okay, that great."

LOK

So, what we have here is our Kiyoshi style apartment. It is 2500 square feet and is up and downstairs. It is also three-bedroom with the guest bedrooms downstairs and the master upstairs. Like the Magnolia style, it is also an open concept with the dining room attachment. Feel free to look around and I'm here for any questions you have." After he was done Asami's phone rang.

"Hey, Korra, got check it out I'll be up there in a minute." Korra nodded her head and went up to the stairs to the master. Asami stepped off to the side and answered her phone.

"Hi, this is Asami Sato."

"Hi, Ms. Sato. This is Principal Umi and I am calling you today about your son Dakota. He got into a fight with another boy while at recess."

Asami eyes widened. "A fight?!"

LOK
