Korra and Asami

24: Baited

The next morning, Korra and Asami were lying together in bed, Korra drawing patterns over Asami's back lightly, causing goosebumps to travel throughout her body. Although it was dawn, it was still dark out, and the couple barely slept in light of their nightly activities.

"Korra, that tickles," She smiled tiredly, exhausted from the night before with her girlfriend. 

Korra only grinned, continuing to touch her. 

Asami had her arms folded underneath her head, and she watched Korra closely, taking in the beauty of the avatar, wishing she could ease the burden Korra carries on a daily basis. After their conversation yesterday, Asami thought it over and came to the conclusion that Korra deserves to get everything her heart desires, even if it means having to make sacrifices, but to Asami, it was worth it. 

"Korra," Asami started. 

Korra hummed a response, looking down at Asami patiently. 

"I think building a home of our own is a good idea. I want to have a fresh start with you." Asami told her truthfully. 

Korra paused in her actions, watching Asami's expression carefully to make sure she was being serious. 

"Really?" 

Asami smiled, "Really."

Korra was happy that Asami was willing to do this for her, to compromise for the sake of their future, "I appreciate that, Asami. Thank you." 

"You don't need to thank me, it's only right. We are in a relationship and we should always come to an agreement on these matters. I'll miss living here, but I was thinking we could use this place more recreationally, you know? Have parties here, reunions, a summer spot, I could continue my work here. Do you think that'd be a good idea?" 

Korra smiled widely, "I think that's an amazing idea. I just want you to be sure. I know the mansion means a lot to you." 

"I'm sure, Korra," Asami responded. 

Korra laid her head on the pillow next to Asami's and placed their lips together, moaning softly. Korra pushed herself over Asami, straddling her, their bodies still naked from the night prior. Asami trailed her hands over Korra's back all the way down until they reached her backside, squeezing gently, causing the avatar to moan once more. 

Things started to get heated pretty quickly, but they were interrupted, by a loud knock causing them both to jump. They stared at the door in annoyance and Korra looked down at Asami with a smirk. 

"It's probably Kuvira, maybe she'll go away," She whispered, kissing along Asami's neck, sucking in a few places, the sensation making Asami's back arch lightly. 

Asami pulled away breathlessly, raising a brow, "This early?"

Another knock, this time more urgent. 

Asami frowned, lightly pushing Korra off of her before getting out of bed to throw on the pj's she wore last night, Korra did the same. 

"I swear, never a moment's peace," Korra continued to grumble under her breath while Asami shook her head in amusement heading to the door with a smile. 

Before she even reached it, the door flew off its hinges and Asami ducked just in time, Korra immediately at her side with a fireball in hand. 

"It's me!" 

Korra met Kuvira's wide eyes in the candlelit room, clenching her fists, "You almost hit Asami!" 

Kuvira ignored her, frantically getting her words out, "We have a problem."
