With the help of Bolin the girls set up their room for movie night. Hanging a white sheet on the wall over Asami's bed and setting up the projector on the opposite wall. Opal and Bolin had claim to Opals bed and Asami sat on the floor in a cushy pile of pillows and blankets.
Asami was already a couple beers in when she heard the knock on the door. "I got it!" Bolin shouted launching himself off the bed and trotting over to the door. He swung it open to reveal Korra standing there with a stack of pizzas and that lopsided grin. "Who's up for pizza?"
Asami shot Opal a look. This has Opal written all over it. But drunk Asami does like pizza. She thought shrugging before looking back over at Korra who was heading towards her with a box. "I was told you like pepperoni and pickles" Korra handed the pizza over like a peace offering. Asmai smiled and accepted the pizza before scooting over to make room for her.
Most of the pizza was gone when Korra finally asked what movie they were watching. "Ooo you guys are going to love it!" Opal tapped on her phone a couple times before the title "Insidious" popped up on the wall. "Really Opal?" Asami asked turning to look at her best friend. Opal just smiled at her. Asami rolled her eyes and turned back around with a huff.
"Everything okay?" Korra asked confused. "Yeah I just really hate horror movies." Asami said folding her arms over her chest. Bolin got up to flip off the lights and Opal hit play on the movie.
Every jump scare would make Asami flinch and swear under her breath. Korra could tell she hated this. But knew Asami wasn't one to complain. So trying to offer at least some comfort she gently scooted closer to her. When a big jump scare came Asami flinched so bad she turned and grabbed ahold of the front of Korras shirt. Korra smiled and slid her arm behind Asami. After a few minutes Asami realized she was still clutching Korras shirt. "Sorry" she mumbled letting go and blushing. Korra smiled her. "I don't mind. How about after this we watch something else? Calm down our nerves a little". Asami looked up at the bed to see Opal and Bolin passed out. She didn't bother to move Korras arm deciding she enjoyed the comfort. After the first movie Korra took over the projector and put on some romcom and by the first 20 minutes Asami was asleep.
The next morning Korra was the first to wake up. She went to stretch when she realized that some time during the night Asami had fallen asleep on her chest. Korra smiled. I can let her sleep a little longer she thought wrapping an arm around Asami. For awhile she just watched her sleep. Then she noticed a faint scar across Asami's cheek and gently ran her thumb over it. I wonder what that's from? She took a deep breath trying to make sense of the buzz going on in her brain. Why does this feel so right? She thought before slowly falling back asleep again.
After waking up again Korra finally decided she had to get up. Korra gently rubbed Asami's back trying not to startle her. "Hey as much as I'm loving this I really need to go" She whispered into Asami's ear. Asami started to stir and snuggled against Korra more causing Korra to tense up. Then Asami's eyes flew open when she registered the words. She sat up abruptly and blushed.
"How long have you been awake?" She asked beyond embarrassed. "Not that long. Korra was trying hard to hide her smile. "Hey would you be up for getting some coffee?" Korra asked getting to her feet and stretching. Asami looked over at Opal and Bolin still asleep. "Sure why not. I don't see them getting up anytime soon". Korra face lit up. "Awesome! She offered Asami a hand and pulled her up. "Can you give me like fifteen minutes to change? I'll meet you at the coffee shop. "Sounds like a plan Asami said smiling before Korra was out the door.
Fifteenth minutes later Asami was walking up to the coffee shop on campus. Korra was standing by the door scrolling through her phone wearing a pair of dark denim shorts with a black crop top and a blue and black flannel layered over it. Asami bit her lip does she really have to look that good just to get some coffee? Her gaze trailed up Korras body before locking with those blue eyes.
