Heart On Fire

chapter two: My Pretty Best Friend

Korra's P.O.V

How long had they been standing at the window? Maybe they didn't hear too much. I hope not. Asami and I walk up the stairs to her room. I set my bag down on the floor next to her night stand and flop down on her bed.

"Are you sure it's okay with your dad for me to stay here for the weekend?"

"Of course. Besides, He won't even be here. He's barely ever here so he won't actually have a problem with it." Asami says shrugging her shoulders. I sigh and pull out my phone. I missed a text.

From: Bo

Are you okay? You seemed upset when you...ran.

And here come the questions I was hoping to avoid. He's my best friend, other than Asami. I understand why he would care.

To: Bo

Yea I'm fine. It was nothing:)

From: Bo

If you say so...

Asami comes over and sits next to me. She has the biggest grin on her face. The whole ride over to her house she was squealing about how excited she was that her best friend (me) is coming to spend the whole weekend with her. I decided that since she was awesome enough to let me crash at her place, because I was not going to stay home, whatever she wanted to do...is what we were going to do.

Night came and we changed into our pajamas, getting ready for our next 'fun' activity. I regretted my decision to let Asami run everything when she yelled

"MAKEOVERS!"

She grabbed my arm and made me sit in a chair in front of her vanity before I could even protest. We Put my hair up into a high ponytail out of my face. She stand in front of me and examines my face before picking up a make up pallet.

"You don't actually need makeup. Your really pretty without it, but in the right places it can make your best features stand out."

I laugh and she gave me a 'what?' face.

"Aww, thanks 'Sami. Sometimes though, it's a curse." I'm dead serious. I mean I'm glad I'm not unattractive but...

She looks at me surprised. She sets down the makeup pallet and crosses her arms. I feel like she's going to try and lecture me. Correct I am.

"Are you serious? Your are one of the prettiest girls I've seen in my life. Why is that a bad thing? A lot of people think you're adorable. You can probably have any guy you wanted."

I've always been told this, but the people I hear it from... I'm pretty sure have intentions for me. I always knew I was pretty, but l hate the attention that I get from...certain people. Everything at home seems to revolve around what I look like. What 'she' looks like. Her job is dependent on what she looks like, and I always get caught in the middle and end up fighting my way out. I don't rely on my looks for anything. but she does. That's not all that matters in life, but she cares more about that than me.

"I just don't like too much attention. I don't want just any guy anyway." I say.

"Well every guy wants you. Your gorgeous. Not as gorgeous as me, but ya know, a close second." She laughs and nudges me and I know she is only joking.

I smile at her. Asami is very pretty. Every boy in school practically drools all over her.

"Thanks, but I'm trying to get through school. When I find the right guy, then I'll use my 'powers of seduction' to make him fall for me." I say playfully

"There are a lot of people that wish you would try to seduce them!" We both laugh at that.

"Same goes for you! You walk around teasing everyone, but I'm pretty sure that by the looks you get, they don't mind." We laugh again.

I smile at her and she smiles back. I know I'm not 'ugly', but I don't see why a big deal is made over my looks, especially at home. Asami picks up the makeup again and starts to apply it to my face. It feels like forever before she is done. She squeals and takes my hair from the ponytail. she turns the chair so that it is facing the mirror. When I look at myself I can't believe it. I looked...

"Eeeee!Korra you look so hot!" Asami squeals behind me.

I stare at myself in the mirror. Asami was right, I looked pretty good. She didn't do a lot. I still looked like myself, but she put on brown eye liner that was barely visible, some mascara, brown eye shadow, and lip gloss. My eyes stuck out more than they usually did. I still don't think I'll wear makeup to often though. At least, not a lot.

We spend the rest of the night just talking. It was getting late and we're settling in for the night.

"No one knew you before because you're new and all, but every one is going to know you after the party. Not that people weren't checking you out before, but once we show up at that party, you are gonna be trying even harder to ignore guys."

Some guys had hit on me when I first got to school. I've ignored every single one of them. I wasn't interested in being someone's whore, and I never would be. I'm more than that. I try to stay low to avoid all the pervs eyeing me in the hallways. Don't make eye contact, don't even acknowledge. I wear more and try to stand out less.

"Mako is totally gonna die when he sees you at that party!"

What the Hell? That was random.

"Asami, What are you talking about? What does Mako have to do with anything?"

"I'm pretty sure he likes you more than it appears. He's different around you, but I don't think he's realized it yet. However I have noticed every little thing."

I'm glad I'm facing away from her so she can't see the blush on my face. It got worse when she said "I know you like him too. It's not as unnoticeable as you think, but we'll talk about that later."

She falls asleep, leaving me thinking; about Mako and how Asami was right about my little crush,about school, the party. Eventually my thoughts lead into sleep thinking about everything My best friend said.

Okay so I know this chapter is horrible and I know the chapter title is dumb too, but I'm sleepy and I didn't want to go without giving you guys another chapter. Sooo, Sorry it sucks. Don't hate me...Pleeease:( Review if you want ( I hope you do i like reading the reviews.)

P.S. I can update again tomorrow. Hopefully that one turns out way better than this one. Thanks!
