Book 2 of Legend of korra: Eclipse

Chapter 2: Friends in Fame: Navigating Highschool Together

Asami's early morning routine was a ritual she cherished, and today was especially exciting because she had finally graduated from high school. She moved quietly around the room, not wanting to disturb Korra's sleep. After getting dressed, she went downstairs to start preparing breakfast. The aroma of eggs, bacon, and sausages filled the kitchen, and Asami's stomach growled in anticipation.

She poured herself a cup of coffee and made a cup of orange juice for Korra. As she set the food on the kitchen counter, she glanced at the clock - 6:30 am. She smiled to herself, thinking about how proud she would be to see Korra graduate in just a few months.

Asami went back upstairs to wake Korra up, gently sitting on the bed beside her. She leaned in and placed multiple kisses on Korra's lips, her fingers tracing soft patterns along her side. Korra's eyes fluttered open, and a warm smile spread across her face.

"Good morning," Asami whispered, her voice husky with sleep.

Korra's smile grew wider as she sat up, rubbing her eyes. "Good morning," she replied, her voice still groggy.

Asami grinned, feeling a sense of contentment wash over her. She loved starting their days together, surrounded by the quiet intimacy of their bedroom. She reached out and gently brushed a strand of hair out of Korra's face, her touch sending a spark of affection through her.

"Breakfast is ready," Asami said, her voice gentle. "I made your favorite - eggs, bacon, and grits."

Korra nodded, stretching her arms above her head. "Sounds amazing," she said, swinging her legs over the side of the bed.

Asami helped Korra get dressed and they sat down to enjoy their breakfast together. The morning sunlight streaming through the windows cast a warm glow over their little routine, and Asami felt grateful for this moment of quiet happiness with the person she loved most in the world.

After finishing their breakfast, Asami looked at Korra with a mischievous glint in her eye.

"Hey, would you like a ride to school today?" Asami asked, knowing that Korra loved riding on her motorcycle.

Korra's eyes lit up and she leaned in, planting a soft kiss on Asami's lips. "I would love that," she said with a smile. "It's always more fun riding with you."

Asami grinned, feeling a rush of excitement at the thought of spending more time with Korra before their busy day began. She quickly gathered their things and they headed out to the garage, where Asami's sleek black motorcycle awaited them.

Korra hopped on behind Asami, wrapping her arms around her waist as they sped off towards the school. The wind whipped through their hair, and Korra couldn't help but feel a sense of freedom and exhilaration as they rode together.

As they pulled up to the school, Korra hopped off the motorcycle with a wide grin on her face. "Thanks for the ride, babe," she said, leaning in to give Asami a quick peck on the cheek.

Asami smiled back, feeling grateful for moments like these with Korra. "Anytime, love," she replied. "Have a great day at school. I'll see you later."

Korra waved goodbye as she headed into the school, feeling energized and ready to take on whatever the day had in store for her. Asami watched her go, her heart full of love and pride for the amazing person Korra had become.

Korra walked through the school halls, the sound of her fans' excited chatter filling the air. As she made her way through the crowd, she spotted her best friend Opal chatting with a group of classmates. Korra quickly approached her, a pleading look in her eyes.

"Opal, help me, they won't leave me alone," Korra whispered urgently, glancing back at the eager students clamoring for her attention.

Opal chuckled, shaking her head at Korra's predicament. "Looks like you've got quite the fan club, Korra," she teased, flashing her friend a mischievous grin. "But don't worry, I've got your back."

With a playful wink, Opal looped her arm through Korra's and began to guide her through the crowd, expertly maneuvering through the sea of students. As they walked, Opal couldn't help but chuckle at the way Korra's popularity had skyrocketed since her identity as the Avatar had been revealed.

"You really are a celebrity now, Korra," Opal remarked, a teasing glint in her eye. "I might need an appointment just to hang out with you."

Korra rolled her eyes good-naturedly, grateful for Opal's lightheartedness in the midst of the chaos. "I promise I won't let the fame get to my head," she replied with a grin. "But it's nice to have you to keep me grounded."

As they finally managed to escape the throng of students, Korra let out a sigh of relief, grateful for Opal's help in navigating the overwhelming attention. They found a quiet corner of the school where they could catch their breath and chat in peace.

Opal nudged Korra playfully, a knowing smile on her face. "So, how does it feel to be the most popular person in... in the world?" she asked, her tone light and teasing.

Korra chuckled, shaking her head at the absurdity of it all. "It's definitely a lot to handle," she admitted. "But I'm just grateful to have friends like you to help me through it."

Opal grinned, her eyes reflecting the deep bond of friendship between them. "Anytime, Korra. You know I've always got your back," she said, her voice filled with sincerity.

As they sat together, sharing stories and laughter, Korra couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for the true friendships that had stood the test of time, even in the face of newfound fame and responsibility. And as they continued to navigate the ups and downs of high school life together, Korra knew that with Opal by her side, she could face anything that came her way with courage, humor, and unwavering loyalty.
