Chapter 4
Asami drove them back to Korra's house to make sure she doesn't do anything stupid. Mako carried the sleeping Korra upstairs to her room and placed her on her bed. He stripped her down to her bra and underwear then wet a washcloth and cleaned her face with it.
He picked out some PJ's for her to wear. A black t-shirt that said 'Bite Me' in white graffiti text and some rather long, dark blue pajama pants with white skulls smoking cigarettes on them. He pulled out her hair clips and placed them on her cluttered nightstand. He pulled the covers over her then went downstairs.
"She's asleep." Mako said as he plopped on her living room couch.
"We should stay here…" Bolin suggested. "For the night. Make sure she's alright in the morning." Bolin sat back in a chair, putting his feet up on the coffee table.
"Yeah, it is a good idea." Asami added. "It's not like she'll leave the house or anything like that… But it's still better if we, as her friends, stay here to keep an eye on her." Asami pulled out her pack of Marlboro's, stuck one in her mouth then lit it.
Mako nodded and turned on the TV to keep occupied. "Do you guys wanna watch Teen Mom or That 70's Show?" Mako asked as he flipped through the TV guide.
"That 70's Show." They all said simultaneously.
Later that night, when they were all fast asleep, Mako, Asami and Bolin woke up to an ear shattering scream.
"KORRA!" Mako yelled running up the stairs, skipping steps, to her room.
He pushed the door open so hard it hit the wall. She was still screaming, but she was asleep. He ran to her side, tripping over clothes and different items in the process, grabbed her and held her tight.
He spoke softly. "Korra, what's wrong?" He held her head in the crook of his neck as she awoke and began to cry. But she pushed him away.
"Go away." She said coldly.
"W-why?" That's all he managed to say.
"Because you were such a jerk to me tonight, Maiko" She was still a little drunk. Her eyes began to water again. "I thought you were my friend."
"Korra, I- I was…" He couldn't find the right words.
"You were what, Maiko?" She crossed her arms as she glared at him. "What is your- Mmmhh."
He cut her off by pressing his lips to hers. He pulled away. "Korra, I like you… A lot." He cupped her cheek. "And I guess I just got jealous when you were attracted to that waiter."
"Mako?" The alcohol started to wear off a little.
"Yes, Korra?" She gripped his hand.
"I- I had a nightmare… About that… day in the… sixth grade." She looked at him as he laid down next to her.
"Tell me everything." He pulled her close to him.
~~~Korra's Dream~~~
Korra POV
"Korra, that's not fair. Ha ha ha." I was on top of you pinning you down. "Get off. OOF!" I pinned you down harder.
"Ha ha ha. It's totally fair, Mako AH- ha ha ha." Then you pushed me the side but I grabbed your forearm and pulled you down with me. You landed on top of me; your lips barely an inch away from mine. You closed the space as you kissed me.
Out of Korra's POV and dream
"I closed my eyes… I enjoyed it, but… I thought it was a 'heat of the moment' thing and… I thought it didn't mean anything. So when you agreed to the pact I created to never speak of it again… I thought…" She turned around and hugged him as she cried into his chest.
He hugged her tightly and whispered something that comforted her into her ear. "I feel the same way."
"W-what?" She looked up at him with teary eyes.
"I feel the same way about you, Korra… I just thought that you didn't." He confessed.
"Let's just sleep, okay?" She turned back around and instantly fell asleep.
~~~The Next Morning~~~
Mako woke up and pulled his phone out of his pocket to that it was 9:04am. He put his phone in his pocket and looked to his side to that Korra wasn't there. The he heard a noise come from the bathroom down the hall. He got out of bed then looked down at his shirt to see drool on his shirt. "I don't sleep drool… But Korra might." He sighed and walked out the door.
He looked down the stairs to see that Asami and Bolin were asleep and cuddling. They make a cute couple. He thought.
He heard the noise once again and walked to the bathroom door and knocked. Korra answered.
"Uughh, What? Come in." She sounded horrible.
Mako opened the door and saw Korra leaning over the toilet puking her brains out. "Want me to get you some aspirin?" Mako offered as he knelt down beside her, rubbing circles on her, rather sweaty, back.
She held her head in pain as she leaned over and puked. "That would be great. Thanks, Mako."
"I'll be right back." He left the bathroom and jogged down the stairs which, apparently, was enough to wake up Bolin and Asami from their slumber.
"Wha-What's going on?" Asami said to no one in particular. She looked to her side to see an awakening Bolin then jumped off the couch so fast it was like magic. "Bolin? U- umm, Wha- I…" She stuttered trying to find the correct words to express her feelings.
Bolin was just as surprised, though. "I don't know what happened. One moment we were watching That 70's Show, the next you fell asleep… Then I fell asleep…" He didn't know what to make of it.
"You two were cuddling." Mako interjected carrying a cup of water and two aspirins. "In fact, it was kind of cute." He snickered.
"Is Korra alright?" Bolin asked changing the subject, but genuinely worried about Korra.
"She just has a massive hangover." He began to walk up the stairs. "But she'll be fine." He stopped walking up the stairs for a moment and looked back at them. "But seriously, you two looked cute together." For a brief moment he saw the both of them blush.
Mako walked back into the bathroom and handed Korra the aspirin and glass of water. She took both pills at the same time and downed the water in 4 sips. Impressive.
"Thanks for staying, Mako." Korra leaned against the bathroom wall.
"No problem, Korra." He turned on the shower and played with the temperature. "Now take a shower, you stink."
Chapter 5
Korra finished showering. Now she needed to get dressed. She picked out a grey t-shirt that said 'Guns N' Roses' in black text on a red banner over a skull wearing a black top hat over two crossed revolvers. Her jeans were baggy and blue. They had holes in the knees and were faded quite a bit. She wore her black combat boots with peeled fake leather around the toes and laces. She tied her hair into a regular pony tail in the back with two, thick pieces of hair hanging in the front.
She walked down the stairs to see her friends talking. "Hey guys." They looked at her and waited for her to begin talking again now that she has their attention. "I thought we could do something fun today."
"Well, what do you have in mind?" Bolin asked sitting up in his chair.
"We're gonna go attic hunting." She pointed up the stairs that leads to her attic.
"What's attic hunting?" Mako asked scratching his head.
"Isn't it obvious?" she exclaims and talks with her hands. "We look in my attic and try to find cool stuff." She motions for them to follow her. "Come on, it'll be fun."
Korra took them up to her attic. It smelled musty and probably hasn't been cleaned in years. The four begin to rummage through Korra's stuff and found that it really was fun. Bolin found a Game Boy Color, Mako found a ton first edition books by really famous authors (I really don't feel like naming stuff right now) and Asami found vintage vanity license plates from 9 different states.
"I haven't looked at this stuff since I was a kid." Korra stated as she gasped and pulled out an amplifier. "Every one look for a guitar." Everyone looked frantically until Bolin spoke.
"Hey." He reached back into a load of stacked boxes. "I found it." He pulled out a black Ibanez GIO Z99. "Holy shit, Korra." Bolin exclaimed taking in the instruments beauty. "This is yours?"
"Yup." She takes the guitar from Bolin. "Let's go to my garage and try it out, shall we?"
In the garage, Korra plugged in her guitar to the amp and played around with the dials and settings.
"I didn't even know you played, Korra." Asami pointed out.
"I used to take lessons when we were kids, remember?" She said annoyed.
"OOHHH YEAH." The other three adults said simultaneously.
"I'm not even that good anyways… But here we go."
Their jaws dropped to the floor as they watched Korra play the guitar solo to Michael Jacksons Beat it. Her fingers were fluent in her movements while moving up and down the neck and changing the chords. Amazing would be an understatement and an insult to her talent.
Don't complain about how bad the ending might have been. I thought it was okay. Just review and I'm open to ideas and stuff. I update soon. See ya laterz
