Asami woke up feeling very warm, her head resting against Korra’s shoulder.
“Hey sleepy head. Have a nice nap?” Korra chuckled, kissing her girlfriend’s temple as the taller girl sat up with a yawn.
“Yeah…Thanks. How long have I been out?” Asami groaned, noticing how the aurora was dancing overhead.
“A few hours. The daylight don’t last long out here particularly in winter….and Mom would have killed me if I had suggested waking you.” The avatar chuckled, standing and helping Asami to her feet.
“Well….Lets head back before one of us catches pneumonia.” The ceo stated, handing her the fur shawl that she had used a blanket.
“Okay…But you keep this wrapped around you. The ride home will be chilly.” Korra answered with a smile, earning a chuckle.
Korra felt her face grow warm as Asami tightened her arms around her waist, her head leaned down to rest against the avatar’s shoulder.
“I am really glad that you got to have fun with your family today…I’m just sorry I ruined it.” The young engineer stated, earning a sigh from Korra who stiffened at her girlfriend’s words.
“You didn’t ruin anything…You just fell asleep by Naga. I still got to goof around with my parents and got to see my cousins try to have fun…Which was….entertaining to say the least.” The dark skinned girl retorted gently before letting out a laugh.
“I don’t know how you slept through the noise we were making.” She added just as they approached the house.
The engineer couldn’t help but laugh at that thought, remembering how the twins had protested against the snow covering them.
“Well I hope they aren’t too irritated. I’d hate to have my girlfriend sealed in ice.” Asami teased as she dismounted the polar bear dog, followed by Korra who put her arm around the taller girl’s waist.
“I doubt they’d do that. They seem to like you.” The avatar retorted as they made their way toward the house.
“There you two are. I was starting to think that you would camp out with the penguins.” Tonraq chuckled as soon as the young couple walked in.
“Oh stop teasing them Tonraq…Come on girls…I’ve kept some food on for you.” Senna stated, only to earn a small chuckle from her husband who just winked at the two teens.
“We just ate so it should still be hot.” He added, ruffling Korra’s hair as he walked passed, earning a glare from his daughter.
