Senna opened the door to find the two teens curled together on the bed, sleeping soundly, both snoring mildly. The older water bender only smiled and shut the door behind her, returning back to the living room where Tonraq and the northerner chiefs sat playing pai sho.
“Are they okay? You seemed worried.” Tonraq asked, earning a chuckle and nod.
“They’re sleeping. Asami’s having a rough day and evidently Korra wanted to stay with her.” Senna stated, earning a nod from her husband.
“The perfect gentleman.” Eska muttered, a bit annoyed at her cousin for not so much as making a quick stop outside to tell her she didn’t want to hang out.
“Eska. Stop being envious of cousin and her romance life.” Desna sighed, not sounding interested in anything but the board game that he and Tonraq were playing.
A look of shock as well as a blush came over the usually emotionless girl’s face.
“I am not envious of anything that the avatar does!”
Desna only rolled his eyes while muttering something under his breath about missing a certain earth bender, causing his sister to storm out in a huff.
Korra awoke with a smile, finding Asami still cuddled close and sleeping soundly.
Not daring to wake her Korra moved slowly to reposition herself so that Asami was not laying on her arm—which had gone numb and had been what woke her up—but was resting peacefully with her head on her chest. Korra then watched as her girlfriend Subconsciously snuggled closer, a smile coming over her painted lips.
What have I done to deserve you?
Korra wondered, lightly stroking Asami’s hair as he older teen slept nestled close. Lost in the lavender scented perfume that her girlfriend wore Korra closed her eyes, relaxing as she let Asami become her main focus.
