We Need to Talk

~~~~~

The walk to the dining hall felt long, but comfortable.. I held myself in the shawl as we walked. It was silent. But it wasn't a weird silence. We had made it to the building and saw the others all already sitting down to eat. It was a little odd in here.. Fae was wearing a coat inside and Tenzin had this weird knowing look...? I did not question anything anymore.. I just sat down after Korra, filing the space between her and Pema. Bolin looked at me curiously then realizing. He sent me a small smile as I wrapped the shawl around me tighter. I was peaceful right now.. This is what I needed.

It was still odd... I knew I said it was cold.. But it's cold outside.. I just eyed Fae down most of dinner... What is that boy doing..? He looked up at me before mouthing the words 'I'll tell you later.." I think.. Hmm.. interesting.. I shrugged and continued to eat dinner..

Dinner was mostly calm and quiet.. Until Ikki shouted something.. "WAIT! If (Y/n) is living in the girls dorm now it'll be like a forever sleepover! We could have a slumber party and princess tea parties every night!" Jinora just looked as done with what Ikki said as Korra and I did... I was just.. Speechless? Tenzin groaned and put a hand to his temple..

Korra on the other hand... Wrapped her arms over my shoulder glaring at Ikki. "Umm No~ She's mine, find someone else to kidnap..." I then nearly choked again for the second time that night..

"Well there's the confession.." Fae spoke next. I just stared at my plate.. I saw Pema next to me try to cover up her laugh... Korra quickly let go of me before pointing her chopsticks at Fae..

"I..I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT! I.." My face was Red.. probably redder than my shawl... which is what I was now hiding behind...

"Can't cover it up.. Even Pema knows that..." And I wish I stayed in the grotto...

"I... I'M GONNA FIGHT YOU." Korra leaned even closer to Fae... Jinora then interrupted..

"Not at the dinner table please." Tenzin barely looked up from his plate... 

"Huh.. I thought you liked Mako... This is better! You and (Y/n) would be so cute!" I think Jinora just squealed.. And I choked again... Pema just pat me on the back...

"Hmm.. yeah.." She agreed.. Pema no please. I wanted to slide away... Korra was now redder than me.. But she was mad and embarrassed.. Spirits help me.. Please.

"It's okay Korra... I'm annoying you now, and you'll have your revenge soon." Fae laughed...

"OH trust me.. I'm getting you the second we are finished here.." Korra practically growled at him.. I just put my head on the table...

I just want calm please... Why must I die of embarrassment like this?! Why?!

"I'm faster, remember~?" Fae was practically signing his death certificate..

I said, with my face still against the table... Holding my own chopsticks up.. Pointing to Korra's neck.. "Korra... hit him here... Please it doesn't matter if you miss it still hurts." I mumbled and half the table laughed... No idea who... I just sat with my head on the table..

"Oh yes avatar Kill the ambassador from the Northern water tribe... "

"It won't kill you... worst thing is it will hurt if she misses.. Best thing.. You'll stop talking when it knocks you out if she gets it... " I groaned from the table.
