Legend Of Korra One-Shots

What About Me? (Angst)

Lin stepped back, walking away. This always happened. She was there for everyone but no one was there for her.

"Hey, where ya going?" Kya asked, catching up with Lin. She noticed her friend walking away from their friend group.

"Home.. My mom wants me to watch Su last minute.." Lin mumbled, keeping her voice flat.

"What's wrong?" Kya asked as she placed a hand on Lin's shoulder, noticing the change in her mood.

"Nothing I'm fine."

"Clearly there's something wrong. You won't even stop and look at me."

"Because I don't want to, okay!? Why is that so hard to understand right now?!" Lin yelled, making Kya recoil.

"What's your problem?! I'm just trying to help!"

"Because every fucking day, you and YOUR friends come to me for advice and compliment me and all that fake shit. But as soon as I give you what you want, you leave! I'm there when you guys need me the most but yet, as soon as I need someone, you turn the blind eye! I'm sick of it! I'm chosen last for everything, I don't get invited to hang out, and if I do, I get uninvited. Y'all always give me some sorry ass excuse on why I can't come! 'Oh we don't have anymore room in the car..' 'Oh my mom said I can only invite a certain amount of people..' But you know what, fuck y'all! You don't have to worry about me anymore. I'm that friend that has to walk behind everyone because there's no room on the sidewalk! I'll never be anyone's first choice!" By now, Lin had tears running down her face.

"Because no one wants to deal with your mommy issues! It's always something with you. 'Oh my mom said I can't go... I have to watch my sister..' If we give sorry ass excuses, what do you give? Bad advice?!" Kya yelled back.

"And no one wants to hear your ugly ass crying over that same bummy ass ex you keep going back to!" Lin yelled but immediately regretted it. Kya's eyes widened and Lin stepped back, realizing her mistake. "I'm sorry."

"Fuck you, Lin."

"Fine then. You never even cared about me in the first place." The green eyed teen mumbled, walking away. Their friend group had watched the argument and they realized how bad they had been treating Lin.

"Lin wait- fuck.." Kya turned to find Izumi, Mizu, Asami, Mako, and Bumi staring at her. "I didn't mean to-"

"None of us meant to. We all fucked up..."

You never miss someone until they're gone for good.
