Kier Tan looked at the sleeping figure beside him. He admired the way her eyes fluttered as she dreamt, her slow breathing pace, the way her hands felt against his chest, her lovely curve even at the ripe age of fifty-three, and every bit of her. Lin looked so peaceful in her sleep but deep inside, Kier knew that she's longing to know who she was, who she really is.

Kier covered up the trail so well Lin thought he was the only one who cared for her in her entire life. He convinced the Beifong household to keep her previous life quiet from her, telling her she lost her memory due to a tragic car accident. All things that connected something to the Metalbending Police have been kept safely somewhere in the Beifong mansion.

When he found her that day, he immediately sought out to help her and eventually fell in love with her comatose self. He came to love Lin when she was asleep, hoping and praying that when she wakes up, she'll love him too. And she did. After all his lies to keep her to himself, she admitted to have feelings for him…and then he found out about Tenzin from an elderly caretaker named Mina. He immediately researched about their previous relationship, scanning tabloid after tabloid, magazine after magazine until he knew the bottom why they broke up: children issues. He vowed he will never hurt her and that she'll never know of him.

She stirred and he was brought out of his reverie. He shifted and kissed her forehead. Lin smiled through closed eyes and kissed his jaw lightly.

"Good morning, love," he murmured as he traced circles along her right shoulder. He felt Lin gave a light shrug of her shoulder.

"Good morning," she yawned. Her eyes opened and green eyes met amber ones. "Had a nice sleep?"

"Yes," he answered as he captured her lips and slowly kissed her, his tongue stroking her mouth expertly. He broke it a moment later as he looked at her, taking in her lovely aura. "You?"

"It was okay," she said and rested her head in the crook of his neck. Their hands intertwined as his thumb lazily caressed hers. They stayed lazily lying in bed for a few more minutes before Kier grumpily rose from the bed to prepare for work. He headed for the bathroom to shower and as the bathroom door shut, Lin frowned as she tried to recall again the slightly vivid dream she had about a bald teenager admitting his feelings for her.

She remembered her words but was disappointed because she did not mention his name. "I love you too, airhead." Airhead. She chuckled slightly at the short dream, or was it a memory?

"Well you look like Naga stepped on a piece of her crap," Tenzin heard Korra chide as the Avatar entered his kitchen. "Had another Lin dream?"

Tenzin rubbed his tired eyes and poured his ex-student a cup of tea. He motioned her to sit across him and she complied. He shook his head as he answered her question, "I'm still worried, Korra. I don't know where she is, if she's alive or dead. I don't know where to go looking."

"How about Gaoling?" she asked.

"The caretakers told me they haven't seen her," he answered; another victorious accomplishment of Kier.

"And they weren't worried?" Korra asked.

He looked at her, eyes wide but he immediately dismissed his thought. "They did. Mina, an old caretaker, was near to tears when I went looking for Lin. I need to find her, Korra. I…I—

"You need her?" she supplied. Tenzin may never say it out loud but Korra and his children can see right through him. He missed Lin: his friend, his rock…and deep inside, his lover. After the Revolution, he seemed lost. At first, they thought it was because of Pema's death. His wife's death was part of it but Lin's disappearance made more sense to his kids and Korra because after a month of searching for Lin, he has been having dreams about her, constantly waking up in the middle of the night saying her name.

"She's my friend," he tried to justify. "Of course I need her."

Korra nodded as she took a sip of her tea. She set down her cup and said, "Or because you love her and her absence intensified your feelings for her."

"Preposterous," he commented. "You're too young to know this grown-up stuff."

"I'm twenty and the Avatar," she smirked slightly. "I have the wisdom of a thousand more Avatars and that makes me wise enough to know your feelings, Tenzin." She looked out of the window and observed the white clouds that rolled in the blue sky. "She'll be back, Tenzin. I know it."

"I hope you're right, Korra," he murmured softly. "I miss her."

Korra smiled at her mentor and drained her cup of tea. She stood up and walked to the door. She turned to him before stepping out of his kitchen and said, "You love her, not in a platonic way. You're in love with her and your children understand. I know you love her so much, Tenzin." She then stepped out of the kitchen and smiled as she caught his affirmation.

"I do."

"Be the rock," she heard her mother yell at her. "If you want to be an earthbender, you must be as hard as the rock you bend, or if possible, harder!" Her tiny form stood its ground as sturdy as she can. She looked at Toph Beifong and looked hopefully as her mother stomped her foot, causing a rock to rise below her right foot, throwing her out of balance.

"Rock like!" Toph yelled.

Lin stomped her foot, finding her sturdy balance again and eyed the boulder in front of her. She stomped her foot again as she propelled the boulder against a mountain wall and watched it in satisfaction as it crumpled into bits and pieces…

"Lin? Lin!" Chen's face came into focus and she looked around her. She's in the hospital's healing room with Chen, her personal healer. "Did you remember anything?"

Lin looked at her with a confused look, "Are all my visions memories of my past?"

"Probably," Chen said and gathered her healing paraphernalia, slowly stowing them in a cabinet in the room. "You know in your condition, I really can't tell if they're memories or just dreams. But contemplate on them Lin. Ask some people in your household."

Lin rose from the bed where she was sitting and went to the dressing room and said, "I've been asking them but they only say that I was just what I am now; working for the company and such. Just a normal person."

After she finished dressing up she went out of the dressing room and approached Chen. "But lately I've been having these suspicions but I just dismiss them since Kier tells me that what the caretakers are telling is true. I trust Kier with all my life. He has been there when nobody was and he loves me."

"That's good," Chen said sincerely. Her healer ushered her to the bed and they sat down. "But something's bothering you. What is it?"

Lin rubbed her forehead and said in a low voice, "I know this might sound stupid but in my vision I was with my mother, Toph," Chen nodded and shifted in her seat, "And she was teaching me to earthbend."

Chen's eyes widened but she continued to nod, urging Lin to tell more. "I think I am, or was, an earthbender."

Chen shook her head and said, "But I never see you earthbending. I think it was just a dream."

Lin's shoulder slumped as her face fell in disappointment. "Maybe you're right. Maybe they're just silly visions."

Chen placed a comforting hand on her shoulder and smiled gently. "Or maybe you'll find something in Republic City. Look, you're going there tomorrow and maybe some of your questions will be answered."

Lin's face lit up and Chen could see hope in Lin's eyes. "Maybe."

Chen saw something more in her patient's eyes, is it love? She studied Lin's face and saw her daydream something romantic. "You seem so in love," she commented.

Lin chuckled as blood rushed to her cheeks, leaving a pink tint, "I…I dreamt of this boy again."

"And?"

"He confessed his feelings for me and I told him that I love him too," Lin narrated. She sighed as she took in the boy's face and smiled at herself.

"What's his name?" Chen asked.

"I don't know," Lin admitted. She really was disappointed because in all her dreams about this boy, he never get to mention his name or maybe she did but like all dreams, she forgets part of them and his name seemed so elusive to her. "But I think I called him 'airhead.'"

"Maybe he's in Republic City?" Chen asked to which Lin grinned from ear to ear.

"I hope so."

A/N: I hope you liked this chapter. I can't update my other fic but maybe I can next Saturday. It's midterms so maybe expect updates after this week.
