So here is the new chapter, sorry for it being so short, I just have a lot to do with school being here and all. Anyway there is a few sentences in the beginning that are the same as the end of the last chapter. Just to refresh your memory. Let me know what you think of the story please.
I felt my face grow warm and my blood boil. "MOTHER, don't talk about things like that!"
She laughed and waved me off. "Oh Zin, you are so high strung," her voice grew serious. "So are you in love with the Avatar yet." I swallowed and took a step back. She knew.
How could my mother ask that? I couldn't tell her, not here at least. Not now. Holding my hands up in denial I waved them in a panicked fashion. "No, of course not, why would I be?"
I felt her judging stare fixed on be. I knew that she could see through me like a glass wall. Instead of calling me out on my lie she nodded her head and turned her attention on Korra and Anyo. "Hello Korra, how have you been is Tenzin taking good care of you?"
Feeling the blood rush to my cheeks I stammered out a protest that was silenced by the voice of Korra. She flashed me a glance, right then I knew that she did not forget what had happened between us. "Yes of course he has and I have been amazing. I mean I am the Avatar after all." Korra said with a smile, she's always had a big ego.
Later that day Korra went and showed Anyo around the island leaving my mom and me alone in the tea room. I could feel her stare on her as I directed my glance into the tea cup. After a few moments my mom pressed a warm hand on my tense one. I looked up and met a kind, knowing gaze.
"So how did you figure it out?" My mom simply laughed and brushed back white hair.
"Tenzin, do you really think that I would reveal my secret?"
"No," I smiled and laughed. I knew that my mom had accepted my feelings for the Avatar.
"Now that you have finally figured out your feelings do you know how the Avatar feels?"
"I'm not sure, I mean we kissed, but- Wait a moment why am I discussing this with you?"
"Because I am your mother and you don't know a thing when it comes to females." I chuckled and nodded, it was true.
"Anyway, I think that she likes me, but there is this other boy, Mako." My voice fell silent as I mentioned his name. I hated him so much, but he himself hasn't done a thing.
"If this love is meant to be, which it is then she won't be involved with him romantically anymore. She is still a child give her time." I knew that my mom was right; I wouldn't admit it to her face though.
In other parts of the island things where being said… Korra walked the long hallways of the connecting temples in the island showing everything to Anyo. His eyes wide in awe, being from the South he has never seen Air Nomad Temples. Not many have.
"Wow, Korra this amazing! You really live here," his voice filled with ecstasy.
"Yeah, it's pretty cool, but you know I admit I miss the Watertribe and you." She gave a small smile and looked down at the ground.
"Then come back live with me. I miss you Korra." His blue eyes quivered with hope and sadness.
Korra could feel the conflicting emotions battle in her heart. She missed Anyo as well, but not that way. She looked up trying to find a way to respond, but then was cut off by an abrupt kiss by Anyo. Korra didn't pull away. She was too dumbfounded to even move.
"I love you Korra," Anyo whispered as he wrapped his arms around her. Again she stood still, paralyzed, not sure of what to do. Unknown to the both of them Tenzin was watching from behind the corner.
