Hello again! So, I'm still sick. I've got a few days to write before the next day I have to go to work. I should be writing the next few chapters soon. Not all today though.

Anyway, This chapter is continued where the last chapter left off. It's just with Bolin and Mako talking in the beginning.

I hope you enjoy:)

I do not own Legend of Korra or it's characters.

Hearts On Fire

chapter eighteen: Just a bit of Makorra p.2

Bolin's P.O.V

Well, this morning was eventful. I follow Mako into his room, still laughing at what happened earlier. I close the door behind me so no one would here our upcoming conversation. I turn around to Mako glaring at me.

"What?" I ask innocently

"You know exactly what!"

"Oh, right. Your fun time with Korra was cut short."

His frown seemed to deepened even more. He crosses his arms over his chest and starts pacing the length of the large room.

"So about that," I start "if Asami and I hadn't shown up would you to have, ya know, kissed?"

"Well I guess we won't know now, will we?"

I watch my brother as he huffs and sits down on the edge of the bed, staring into the red carpet on the floor. He runs his hand through his hair before sighing and flopping back on the bed.

Is he really upset about this? I mean, I figured that he liked her, but I didn't know just how much.

"...You really like her don't you?"

He sits up at hearing the question. The look on his face tells me he's actually been thinking about this question before I even brought it up. He looks up at me, eyebrows knit together.

"I-I think...I really do."

I smile at him and sit down next to him.

"So why don't you tell her? I'm pretty sure she likes you too."

"I don't want to add anything to what she's already going through, right now anyway." he mumbles so quietly, I nearly miss it

"Nothing!" He says quickly "I'm just not ready to tell her yet."

"Well when you are, I'm sure it will go well."

He gives me a warm smile. I give him a pat on the back before standing up to leave.

Breakfast just went on as if nothing had happened, except for the constant blush on Korra's face. Eventually, we started talking about school. Not the best topic, but at least it was something.

The conversation was cut short when the door bell rang. I walked out of the kitchen to answer the front door, curious to know who it is. As I reach for the knob, I quickly peek through the peephole at a tall blonde girl with bright red lipstick and a creepy grin on her face.

I open the door and her smiles changes from weird and creepy to sweet an pleasant. I raise an eyebrow at her as she just stairs at me.

"Um...Can I help you?"

"Oh! Can I see Mako?!"

"And who are you, exactly?"

"I'm his girlfriend." My other eyebrow shoots straight up "Who are you?"

"If you really were Mako's girlfriend, which I don't believe that you are, then you would know that I'm his brother."

She makes an 'O' face. "Well, I'm not really his girlfriend, yet anyway, but I will be soon! We're starting a relationship, but I just figured that he's just too shy to make a move." She says in her obnoxiously squeaky voice.

Alright, she freakin' me out now.

"Uuuhhh...Wait here..." I say, squinting at her

I walk back into the house and I hear light laughter in the living room. Everyone has brought all their things for school down stairs and are getting ready to leave. All eyes are on me when I walk in.

"Finally! Can we go now?" Mako says, picking up his bag and walking to the door. Both girls stand up to follow.

"Actually, Mako, there's some girl out there to see you."

"What girl?" Mako asks over his shoulder

I didn't even have to give him an answer. There's a loud, high pitched squealing sound. Mako looks at where the sound came from and freezes completely. He stares, wide eyed, at the girl. His face screamed 'What the Hell are you doing here!' but he didn't voice it.

"Makie!" the girl squeals as she bounces on her toes.

Mako's P.O.V

I hear every one behind me burst into laughter. I frown at them, but that just seems to make them laugh even harder.

"Dawn, what are...why are you...what are you doing here!?"

"I wanted to see youuuuu." she wines, pouting and batting her eyes at me.

"Why would you want to do that?"

"I thought we could go to school together." she says with a large smile on her face

I come up with the easiest excuse "If you haven't already noticed, by all the people standing behind me, my car's gonna be full."

She looks behind me and I just know that her eyes zero in on Korra.

"Well just kick her out and I'll take her place." she says glaring at Korra

"You already know that that's not gonna happen."

She stomps her foot hard on the porch. it makes a large noise that I'm sure startled everyone.

"SHE'S INTERFERING WITH US AND I WON'T LET THAT HAPPEN ANY MORE!"

"What the Hell are you talking about?!" I throw up ma hands and let them fall back down to my sides

"There is no us! There never was, there never will be!" I continue "Get it through your head already. We. Are not. going to be together."

She crosses her arms over her chest and steps closer to me.

"That's what you think." she says

She shifts her gaze over to Korra. "We're not done here. I'll see you at school." she says coldly

She walks away, leaving us standing in the doorway in silence.

In school

So far the day is going on as usual. I've gotten through my first classes which were undeniably boring. Now I was heading to Korra's locker so we can walk to lunch together. I see her put a book into her locker and check something on her phone. She pouts at her phone and I can't help but think it's cute. She looks nice today too.

She looks up at me and smiles.

"Hey, ready to go?" I ask

"Yeah, let's go."

As we walk down the hallway, we walk right by Dawn, who just glares daggers.

Dawn's P.O.V

'That stupid little whore! Who does she think she is?!'

I watch as she walks down the hall with my bf. She doesn't know who she's dealing with!

She has one more warning. Then...

I'm coming after her...

Well, here we are. See you all next time:)
