Welcome to Korrasami Prompts! A place where I intend to write anything related to Korrasami. For that I request the help of the fandom. Any idea you have, any request, any thought, anything just tell me. I mean it: ANY PROMPT. I will try to write everything that is suggested to me in the comment section as long as its Korrasami related. Don't hold back people for I won't judge just write.
And to begin this journey I bring a little piece of my own.
Prompt: Asami can't sleep and then she remembers why.
Asami laid in bed looking at Korra's face beside her. The Avatar looked so peaceful in her sleep and it made the engineer smile. That sight, Korra sleeping, was only for her to look at. She moved her hand and delicately moved a strand of hair from the middle of her girlfriend's forehead, making sure not to wake up the other woman. Asami sighted as she moved her eyes to the ceiling, letting her back fall against the bed in a light thud.
She had lost track of time and could not sleep. She had tried for a couple of hours, moving in every singe position possible, but had eventually given up altogether. At first she could not understand why it was so hard to sleep. She was tired after all. It had been an exhausting day at the office, lots of paperwork and a couple of environmentalist enthusiasts protesting at the door of the factory. Her bed was, of course, comfortable, not to mention the fact that her girlfriend was there to keep her warm and cozy. So why couldn't she sleep? And then it hit her. Like a train. The date. It was the anniversary of the final battle against Kuvira or at least that is how most people remembered it. For Asami it had a very different meaning: a year since her father died. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. No wonder she could not sleep.
The memory of her father was sure to bring a tear to her eyes. Sure, she had forgiven him and told him she loved him, but it still hurt like crazy not to have him around. For about four years she had resented him, having absolutely no contact with him. When she had finally decided to go see him she meant it as a goodbye. Little did she know her father would actually look for redemption and, in her eyes, he had achieved it. The man that had once tried to kill her had died saving the city, supporting the Avatar's fight. She could still feel the dread as her seat was ejected, the feeling of flying and seeing her father being smashed by Kuvira's giant robot.
She was crying, she had just noticed. Asami took a hand to her mouth to muffle her own cries. She pressed her eyelids tightly together. The CEO was doing her best not to make noise. She didn't want to wake up Korra. She never liked when other people saw her cry, not even her beloved Avatar, but she couldn't hold it in anymore. She missed him. She had always missed him, even the day after they had discovered his allegiance to the equalists she had wanted to talk to him, to see him. He was his only relative and now he was gone. She had no family.
And the she felt it: a hand around her waist and a kiss on her wet cheek. Her eyes shot open.
"Its a year today. Isn't it?" Korra said, with her voice barely awake "Want to go visit him in the afternoon, love?" she suggested. Asami couldn't speak so she just nodded, surrendering herself to her girlfriend's embrace. It was hard to believe that this amazing woman was could understand her so clearly, read her like an open book.
"I"m sorry" she was finally able to say "I tried no to wake you"
"Sami" the Avatar said with a serious tone, using her right hand to hold the other woman's china and make her look into her eyes "I love you. If you are ever hurting please do wake me up"
"I..." she shivered "I love you too" She had been wrong. She did have a family, a small beautiful family with her sweet, compassionate, beautiful girlfriend, she held her even closer and rested her head on the other one's chest.
"You are my world, Asami. Please don"t ever hide from me. Not even..." Korra could not finish the thought for she realized the engineer had fallen asleep.
