SORRY I didn't have access to a computer...Forgive me?

And sorry this is short but I wanted to give you something..

Simply put, Bolin liked the air temple. Up in the attic it had always been him and Mako cooped up with only each other as company. However, here on the island, it was completely, refreshingly different. Everywhere was open and free. He soon realized why air was the element of freedom. Everyone was free to do as they pleased, within certain rules, and the whole island was open and breathtaking. Bolin also quite enjoyed the airbender kids. They were someone he could play with and almost become a child again, minus the orphan part. Actually, he was just returning from playing with the airbender kids, and was looking down at the intricate drawings on the stone pathway before him, when a sudden and strong force collided into him, sending his body and the "assailant" onto the ground. He prepared himself for the worst,maybe even some sort of Equalist attack, but relief flooded him when he saw her familiar, sparkling cerulean eyes looking down on him.

"Korra! Hey!"

"s-sorry" she said, rolling over off of him onto her back.

"You okay?" he asked, getting up and offering her a hand.

"Yeah I'm fine" she said, gratefully taking his. She wasn't sure if she would have been able to get up by herself. She winced a little at the strain on her abdomen.

"Are you sure? You look angry.. and sound hurt.."

"Why does everyone always have to poke and prod at me!" she exploded. "Why is it that every action has to be analyzed and watched and-"

"Korra- I'm sorry- I didn't mean to-"

"No, I'm sorry Bolin. I'm just a little stressed out."

"You don't have to talk about it. But we can do something to take your mind off of whatever this is? I mean, only if you want he asked expectantly.

"Honestly, right now, I wouldn't want anything else." She said, smiling and following after him.

ooooo

To say that Mako had his hands full was a complete understatement. First, and most importantly, Korra. She was heading towards a serious injury and he was very worried on her general safety. She really wasn't accepting help when she so obviously needed it. He also didn't really know where they stood. Of course, they had both opened up to each other the night before, but now she acted like nothing had happened. He almost tried to tell her how he really felt about her, although he wasn't quite sure what that was yet. He wondered what would have happened if he did.

And that brought him to his second issue. Asami. He knew they had to break up, they should've a while ago, but he assumed Asami was oblivious to the fact. He didn't want to break her heart, but it might have to be the only way. She had planned to come visit him tonight, to see how he was doing on Air Temple Island. Maybe he could muster the guts to do it then.

ooooo

"Don't you think they would make a great couple?" Asami said, sitting next to Mako on the grass, features enhanced by the twilight. In the distance they could see Korra and Bolin in the practice ring, both playing around and uncontrollably laughing.

"What? Don't be ridiculous!" he retorted too quickly.

"Mako- Can't you see it? The way they smile with each other?" she looked on, watching Korra and Bolin almost admirably.

He hoped she was wrong. "I think it's just friendly"

"I think it's something more." She was testing him, and he was failing.

She had to be wrong.

What would happen if she were right?

Korra. Korra and Bolin, his brother?

"You're sounding jealous" she said after he didn't respond.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"You like her"

"She's Korra"

"You're avoiding it."

"I just don't know, okay?" he bursted out, regretting it as soon as the words slipped of his tongue.

"You're always so serious. Someone like Bolin at least knows how to make a girl laugh."

"What are you even talking about? Asami, I think we need to ta-"

"I know. I'm breaking up with you."

At first he was just too dumbfounded to speak. "B-but.. I- was just saying how He felt selfish for thinking it, but he wanted to be the one to do it. Now he just seemed like he was chasing Korra because he was dumped, which was really the opposite. He had tried to deny his feelings for her, whatever they were, but they kept pushing further and further.

"I really hope we can still be friends" Asami said, giving him a goodbye hug, getting up, flipping her hair and powerfully walking away. What is evenhappening?

Before you review, just note that this is not meant to portray Asami in a negative way, only to portray her relationship with Mako negatively. I think Asami is amazing but I just don't like her and Mako together. What do you expect from a Makorra shipper? (Don't keep on reading if you're looking for Masami.)

I WILL TRY MY HARDEST TO UPDATE AGAIN TONIGHT! This is kind of a bridge chapter, things get exciting soon :3
