I'M TRYING TO FINISH THIS AS FAST AS I CAN BECAUSE I'VE GOT FINALS AND I DON'TWANT TO MAKE YOU GUYS WAIT

After searching wide and far on Air Temple Island (which Mako swore, looked smaller from Bolin and his old apartment in the attic at the probending arena), he finally found her. Mako took slow careful steps, not wanting to alarm her and make her run away once again. When he sat down on a cliff of the island, Korra only looked into the ocean.

"Hey…I guess I found you." Mako started off easily, coughing into his gloved hands awkwardly.

After a moment of short silence, Mako spoke up again.

"Don't cry over me, Korra." He said, looking at her puffy eyes.

"I…I can't he-lp it…" Korra mumbled as she looked back at him. "I love you too much…"

Mako entangled his fingers with Korra's as hers sat on the edge of the cliff, too.

"And…I know you love me too…" Korra paused for a moment. "Right?"

"Of course I love you, Korra." Mako answered, tugging a smile. He felt Korra grip his hand harder, which made him smile a tad more.

"So, why won't this work?!" Korra cried out with confusion. She's had enough of the games. It was on and off, on and off; she didn't know if she could take it anymore.

"Can you tell me about her? The uhm…girl you met?" Korra asked in a surprising normal tone.

"Korra, I wanted to tell you that we weren't officially going out. We just went on a couple of dates, okay?" Mako informed her, which Korra looked away in embarrassment.

"Sorry for overreacting. Anyways, go on…"

"Well, for starters, she's pretty shy…" Mako said, remembering when he first met her.

"Her voice is pretty high…squeaky, y'know? Uhm…she can be awkward a lot. She's pretty too; she's got some nice short curly orange hair…" Mako continued, rambling.

"Do you love her?" Korra asked, immediately regretting the question, afraid of the answer.

"It's only been a month, so I don't know. I don't think so anyways…" Mako said, which made Korra smile a bit.

"You forgot to tell me her name." Korra said, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Oh! Her name is Marie." Mako informed.

"Nice name…Marie." Korra mumbled more towards herself than Mako,

"I'm sorry Korra…" Mako began, squeezing her hand harder.

"I just…I was lonely, y'know? Bolin moved, Asami was busy with her company and you were getting married!" He paused a moment to take a short breath. "And then…here pops up this wonderful girl with all the free time in the world!"

"I should've known right then, though…that no one could fulfill my life…" Mako leaned in close to Korra. "Like you once did." And then kissed her.

The kiss was not long lasted, as they departed quickly. Korra looked at the ocean for a bit, thinking things through a bit.

"I'll still have to get married…" Korra spoke, which she noticed Mako about to protest but held out her finger.

"They don't have to be royalty…who cares about a pure line blood anyways?!" Korra asked. "So I was wondering…"

Mako laughed a bit. "Allow me, Korra." He heard Korra chuckle.

"Will you... ("Mako!")" Mako leaned in close. "Korra," Their noses bumped. "Marry me?" He got on his knees and held her hand in comfort.

"Mako…I…"

BWAHAHHAHAHA CLIFFHANGER! OWOWOWOWOWOWO

So did you guys seethe thing where Mako was describing Marie that all of her traits were opposite of Korra's? Ya, I know guys do that to forget about their loved exes. That's what I was trying to hint towards! Please leave a review! =)
