chapter 10

When the movie ended, it was only 7:00 and Mako stayed for dinner. Jace had come home just in time to eat.

"So Mako, on a scale of 1-10, how good do you think you are at football?" Jace asked, slurping up one of his noodles.

"Well, I don't know. Maybe a 6." Mako shrugged.

"A 6?! Mako don't be so modest! You are AMAZING! He is definitely a 10!" Korra said, her mouth full of food.

Mako blushed, did she really think of him that way?

"Really? You know, I'd love to throw the ball with you sometime!" Jace exclaimed.

"Okay, sure! I have been dying to get practice in with someone other than my teammates. Most of them are jerks." Mako said happily.

Korra smiled, she was glad her brother and her boyfriend were getting along. Jace never really got along with any of her boyfriends... It was as if he were her dad, intimidating the boys to stay away from her. Mako was the first guy he actually liked! She just hoped her father would feel the same way about him when he got here in a few days.

Mako and Jace continued to talk about football for the rest of dinner. When dinner was over, Jace went upstairs to do his homework and her mom went into the living room to read.

"I guess that means its my turn to do the dishes." Korra groaned. She picked up the dishes and walked to the sink. Mako picked up his own and walked with her.

"I'll help." He said, washing a few of the plates.

"Thanks, I really hate doing the dishes..." Korra said, putting a few into the dishwasher.

"Most people do." Mako said.

Korra looked at him as he washed a plate. He looked way too serious, she could fix that. She got her hand wet and flicked water at his face. He looked down at her, angry. But when he saw her laughing he smiled. He flicked water at her and she giggled.

"Stop!" She laughed.

They continued  splashing  each other with water until Mako finally surrendered. He put his hands up in defeat.

"Okay, okay! You win! I give up!" He laughed.

"Yes! I am the queen of splashing people! I win!" Korra said as she fist pumped the air.

Mako rolled his eyes when He  he felt his phone buzz.

From: Bolin

Hey bro, where are you? Uncle wants you to come home

Mako sighed, he was having a lot of fun being here with Korra.

"I have to go, sorry!"

Korra frowned, "Okay, I will walk you to the front door." She walked him to the front door.

He hugged her goodbye and kissed her lightly before getting in his car and going home.

Korra closed the door and smiled.

"I think I might love him." Korra said to herself.

"What was that dear?" Her mom yelled from the other room.

"Nothing!" Korra replied quickly, while running up to her room. She didn't want anyone to know she loved Mako, not even her mom. She went into her room and did her homework.

She went to bed shortly afterwards and dream about how she ended it with Tahno.

Dream/Flashback

(Korras POV)

Tahno had forced me to come to his house again. When I refused to come he punched me and while I was clutching my stomach he stuffed me into his car and drove us to his house.

"I really hate you." I said as we drove.

He chuckled, "Yeah, but it isn't your decision. That's the beauty of it!"

I felt a tear roll down my cheek at that. I hated feeling so helpless! The thing that hurt the most was that he was right, if I said anything he would hurt my family! I couldn't let that happen. I didn't say anything else and he led me to his room again. He kissed me and beat me.

"Tahno, you won't get away with this!" I said as he hit me again.

"And why do you think that?" He asked, pausing for the moment.

"I will tell someone!" I yelled.

This set him off. I figured he would punch my stomach again, but this time he did something he hasn't done before. He punched me in the face. I clutched my face in pain, why did he do that? He has never punched me in the face before! He was mad, but behind the madness, I thought I saw... fear?

"Look at what you made me do!" He yelled at me. I could swear I heard fear in his voice too.

"Why did you do that?!" I asked, yelling at him.

"You pissed me off! If you tell anyone then I will go to jail! God you bitch!" Tahno yelled, gripping his hair in anger and nervousness.

My eyes widened when I realized something. If I told my family, he would go to jail! He wasn't going to be able to hurt my family! The cops would have him! He was afraid of me! I was going to use this to my advantage.

"Then I suggest you let me leave." I said, standing up.

"And why would I do that?" He asked, blocking me.

"If you don't, then I will tell the cops." I responded simply.

His eyes widened in fear, I smiled. I had complete control of this situation.

"If I do let you go?" He asked, his fear shown through his voice.

"Then I won't tell anyone." I lied.

He nodded his head and let me leave. I ran home and as soon as I walked through the door I saw Jace.

"Korra! Why is your nose bleeding?! Come here and let me fix it!" Jace yelled.

I walked up to him and he got a wet rag and cleaned my face. I had forgotten that Tahno had punched my face.

"Korra, what happened?" He repeated, this time more serious.

I looked down, "Tahno." I said, my voice barely a whisper.

Jace's face paled. "Your boyfriend?" He said, his voice angry.

I nodded.

"Tell me everything!" Jace insisted.

I took a deep breath and explained everything.

Jace looked like a tomato, his face was so red.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!" He yelled.

I flinched, "He told me he would hurt you if I did!" I started to cry.

Jace's face softened, "Oh Korra, I'm so sorry! Come here." He gave me a big hug.

We told my dad later and Tahno ended up in jail.

End of Dream/Flashback

Korra was smiling in her sleep as she dreamt about ending it with Tahno. Her alarm went off and she got into the shower and got dressed.

She went downstairs and saw Jace, which was rare. His earliest class was at 10:30 so he never woke up before me.

"What are you doing up?" She asked while making herself a bowl of cereal.

Jace looked up, he had bags under his eyes and looked like he would fall asleep any moment. Which he probably would. "Coach switched practices to the morning 'cause some jerks mom complained that it cut into dinner time."

Korra laughed. "That sucks."

"Tell me about it." Jace mumbled.

"Looks like I won't be alone in the morning anymore!" Korra said cheerfully.

"Yay for you." Jace muttered.

Korra finished her breakfast and put her bowl in the sink. She packed her bags but forgot her cleats again.

"Korra." Jace said.

"Yes?"

"You are forgetting your cleats." Jace sighed.

"Oops, haha. Thanks." She got them and then she heard a car horn. The car startled Jace and he fell out of his chair. Korra started to laugh.

"Oh shut up." Jace grumbled as he got up.

Korra walked outside and hopped inside the car.

"Hey." Mako said as he pulled out of the driveway.

"Hey yourself." Korra smiled.

"Asami wants to get to know you better so she is going to be extra peppy today." Mako warned Korra.

Korra laughed, "Okay, why does she want to get to know me better?"

"She wants to get to know you because your my girlfriend." Mako shrugged.

They arrived at school and Asami greeted them, along with Bolin.

"Korra!" Asami yelled cheerfully.

"Hey Asami." Korra said while waving at her.

Mako put his arm around her waist and Bolin did the same to Asami, they walked into school in a big group. A lot of people stared and Korra heard the occasional. "She is sooooo lucky to be dating Mako!" or "I wish I had a boyfriend like Mako..."

"A lot of people must really like you..." Korra said to Mako.

He just shrugged, "I guess."

"A lot of girls..." She said, a hint of jealousy in her voice.

"They may like me but I don't like them, you're the only girl I like." He leaned down and kissed Korra.

She blushed and kissed him back.

"Awwwwww! Look at them Bo, they are sooooo cute!" Asami squealed.

Class went by fast and it was time for lunch. Asami greeted Korra with a hug as she sat down. Korra returned the embrace awkwardly.

Mako leaned in and whispered in Korras ear. "Told ya."

Korra rolled her eyes.

"So Korra, I heard you don't have a car." Asami started. Bolin came and sat next to Asami, holding her hand.

"Yeah, my idiot brother crashed it." Korra said, her mouth full of food.

"But I'm giving her rides every morning." Mako spoke up, wrapping his arm around Korra's shoulder.

"That's nice of you Mako, but I think it's time for Korra to get a car." Asami said.

"My brother is supposed to buy me another one soon " Korra said, finishing her food. And taking some of Bolin's food.

"Hey!" He playfully slapped her hand away from his cookies. "Mine."

Everyone laughed.

"Well, I could always take you!" Asami offered as if it were no big deal.

"thank you so much Asami!" Korra happily accepted.

"No problem!" Asami said while taking a bite of her food. "I will pick you up after practice!"
-------------------------------------------

The end of the day came quickly and practice was easy. Korra didn't have any troubles with Ikola today. She walked out front to the parking lot and saw Asami  with Bolin

"Ready to go?" Asami asked as she got into the car.

"As ready as I'll ever be." Korra responded.

"Bye sweetie." Asami said to Bolin.

"Bye honey." Bolin said as Asami pulled out of the parking lot.

They arrived at the car shop quickly because Asami was a fast driver.

They walked around as Korra looked for the perfect car.

"So why are you dating Mako?" Asami asked suddenly.

The question surprised Korra. "Oh, um." Korra paused to think. She smiled as she thought about him. "He is so nice to me, he protects me even though we only met a few days ago. He went against Tahno for me, he comforted me. He makes me feel safe, when he hugs me I feel warmth spread through my body. When we kiss I feel complete. He really cares about me and I really care about him." Korra said, her eyes full of love for him.

Asami saw the look in her eyes and smiled. Korra loved Mako, and he loved her. Now all Asami had to do was get them to admit it to each other. That was going to be a challenge. "You and him look so cute together!" Asami said.

Korra laughed a little at this. "Really?"

"YES!"

Korra continued to look at cars until she saw one she really liked. She ran over to it. It was a Ferrari

"I LOVE this car!" Korra yelled, looking at its interior.

"Okay, lets get it!" Asami said.

They filled out the paperwork and the car was Korra's car !

Korra rode her car home, a big smile on her face.
