Chapter 6: The Perfect Day
The wind howled through Korra's wolf tails as her and her friends walked down the sidewalk leading to the next house. The sun was beginning to set over the horizon as the night started to take control. The three musketeers stopped in their tracks as they watched the sun set. The sky was painted in yellow, orange and pink streaks that complimented the sky nicely . It was the perfect way to end a perfect day.
Korra glanced over at Asami, her black hair waving gracfully with the wind, her emeraled eyes set on the sunset in front of her. Korra smiled warmly at her friend ' she's so beautiful' Korra thought.
Asami saw Korra staring at her from the corner of her eye and smiled still looking straight ahead. She turned to look at her friend emerald eyes sparkling. Asami blew air into Korra's face to shake her out of her trance. "umm Korra...Korra! come back to earth ahaha!"
"Huh what?" Korra blinked rapidly, her eyes almost burning from Asami blowing into them.
"You were staring at me Korra." Asami said shivering when the wind hit her again.
"oh...s-sorry I didn't know I was-" Korra struggled to say her words but was luckly cut off by her other friend.
"C'mon Guys are we going to sit here and watch the sunset, or are we gonna get some candy!" Bolin whined.
"yeah, lets go." Korra said regaining her focus. They walked up to the front door of another house, and Korra rang the door bell. " The people that live here always give me extra candy."
"Well what makes you so special." Asami said nudging Korra in the side
"My family and their family are tight with each other, and I'm pretty good friends with their adopted daughter."
"Do I know-." Asami attempted to say when the door swung open.
"Ayyyeee! What's up Korra!" Kuveria Said loudly swingging the door open with a bucket full of candy.
"Aye what it is Kuveria haven't see you in a minute!" Korra said clasping hands with Kuveria and doing their friendship hand shake.
"yeah I know pravite schools a bitch." Kuveria Said lowering her voice so her parents wouldn't hear her.
"Haha you can say that again!" Asami said agreeing with Kuveria since she could relate.
"And who's this Korra new friend? you already replaced me,haha." Kuveria said putting a hand sarcastically acrross her chest.
"Oh shut up I can have other friends, this is Asami, Asami Kuveria." Korra said gesturing her hands back and forth.
"Nice to meet you." Asami said Putting her hand out to shake the girls in front of her.
"Hey I'm here too!" Bolin shouted from behind the two girls.
"Oh sorry Bo, and this is Bolin."
"Nice to meet you both, you guys wanna come in Mom's making cookies." Kuveria said pointing behind her with her thumb.
"Sure...is that ok with you guys." Korra said steping into the house hesitanly.
"Yeah I love cookies!" Bolin Said follwing Kuveria inside. As Kuveria and Bolin step inside the house and headed towards the kitchen, Korra Still waited to see what Asami was going to do.
"Are you coming."Korra said facing Asami.
"Ya I'm just not used to going into other peoples homes you know." Asami said shyly.
Korra held her arm to Asami for reassurance. Asami hooked her arm with Korra's " Trust me these people are friendly, and you'll really like Kuveria's siblings, and plus you look like your freezing."
"Ok, them cookies better be good." Asami said taping Korra's nose.
"Oh they'll knock your taste buds off." Korra said pulling Asami with her arm inside the cozy home.
'Korra was right about them cookies they did knock my taste buds off haha,and Kuveria's siblings were pertty fun too' Asami thought as the three musketeers started their way down the sidwalk again. It was getting colder and darker by the minute,and Asami was getting antsy. She glanced over at Korra who looked as if it was 80 degress out instead of 30. Asami took Korra by the arm and snuggled her face into her bicep to try and radiat heat. "Don't move."
Korra started to get a jolt of excitement go through her body from the contact that came at her like a surprise. "W-why c-can't I." Korra stuttered.
"Because I'm cold." Asami whined.
Korra didn't want to lose the contact so she tried to ignore her excitement and contniue to walk down the side walk with the Goddess hanging on her shoulders. "ugh c'mon you guys if were going to get any candy we have to walk faster than this!" Bolin shouted to the other girls miles behind him.
"Just go on ahead Bo will catch up Asami's getting cold!" Korra shouted back cuffing her free hand to over her mouth, and with that Bolin was off racing from house to house. " Haha he's going to get more candy then use."
"ya, maybe we can steal some of his candy." Asami snickered but in a instant turned in to a sniffle.
"Hey we can go back to my house if you like were not to far, plus I don't want you to get sick." Korra said pushing one of Asami's curls back behind her ear. "I don't want you to feel like your being forced to stay out here."
"yeah its g-getting p-pretty c-cold out here." Asami said her teeth chattering " B-but w-what a-bout the candy."
"The candy is not important right now, friends come first, and we can steal some candy from Bo anyway right. What you need right now is some hot coco." Korra said as she turned around with Asami still hanging on her shoulders.
Asami felt like she wanted to melt, Korra cared about her so much that she would risk her own wants, for Asami's needs. "Thank you Kor, your the best." Asami said tightening her hold on her friends arm.
"Here take my gloves, you need them more then I do." Korra said taking her gloves off to put them on Asami's hands.
Asami's face started to blush as Korra pushed the light blue gloves onto her hands. 'Korra's hands are so soft.' Asami thought a she took hold of Korra's bicep again.
As they stepped into Korra's house arm's still hooked together, Korra guided the freezing cold Asami into the living room so she cold sit by the fire. " Here you go, so you can warm yourself up."
"thank you again." Asami said staring up at Korra who was also staring down at her.
" Ok I'm gonna go make us some hot coco be right back." Korra said clasping her hands together to break the awkward gaze between them. " how many marshmallows do you want in it!" Korra said walking towards the kitchen.
"umm... three please." Asami said holding up three fingers.
Korra made the two hot coco's and made her way back to where Asami was seated on the floor. She handed her the mug of coco with a dazzling smile and a wink that made Asami blush. "here you go Miss Sato a fresh cup of hot coco, injoy." Korra said watching Asami take a sip of her hot beverage.
"hmmm." Asami moaned from savoring the coco. "This is really good Kor, exactly what I needed."
"you welcome." Korra said taking another sip. "ha why do you still have your jacket on? Still cold?"
"oh I didn't even realize I had my jacket-"
"Here let me help you." Korra said cutting her friend off from finishing her sentence, it was like Korra was in a rush to help her friend or at least touch her. "there you go." Korra got up to put the jacket in the hallway closet.
Asami felt like she was being treated like royalty. Korra was being so nice to her lke exra nice 'aww Korra really care's.' But Asami started to get a little sucpicious as to why Korra was being so nice to her.
Korra came back with a blanket in her hand. She draped the blanket around Asami's shoulders like a cape and sat down next to her grabbing her mug from the floor. " feel warmer." She said taking a sip from her mug while staring at Asami.
"yes I feel much better now." Asami said scooting closer to her friend. " Say where's your parents."
"oh they went to a halloween party."
"Sounds like fun." Asami said finishing off the last glup of her hot coco.
"ha yeah if your old."
"haha s-s-stop your parents aren't old haha." Asami said pushing korra hystericaly, making Korra spill her drink.
"ahh, ouch Sami!" Korra said droping the mug and holding her flaming hot hand.
"ooo sorry Kor I didn't mean to push you that hard, here let me see your hand." Asami took Korra's hand and pressed a soft kiss on her knuckles, as she held korra's hand.
Korra had that jolt of excitment again from early and she struggled to keep her cool this time. "umm *caugh*." Korra coughed " a-apology accepted." Korra said her voice craking 'ugh screw it.' Korra let go of Asami's hand and and pushed her back playfully. Asami followed and pushed Korra back harder.
Asami did what her insticnts told her and tackled korra to the ground pinning her to the floor in a instant. "ha gotcha again!" Asami said in triumph.
Korra laughed humbly with her eyes closed knowing that she had lost the fight again. " Hahaha ok ok you won." She said now with her eyes open and staring hopelessly into Asami's eyes.
Asami still pinning Korra down was not that far from Korra's face, as she stared back into those cyan eyes.' Korra lookes so cute.' Asami blushed to the thought.
Korra's ecitement was now gone, and she could feel Asami's breathe tickling the top of her lip. It was like time had stopped, she was face to face with her crush and only had one thing on her mind, and with out thinking Korra leaned forward.
Asami didn't move while Korra leand forward to kiss her it was like she wanted to kiss her. Asami started to close her eyes.
"Hey guys thanks for leaving me out there!" Bolin shouted opening the front door and walking into the living room
Korra and Asami jumped off each other to avoid Bolin catching them almost kissing each other. But it was too late.
"What are you guys doing!" Bolin shouted again.
"Nothing...we was... doing-." Korra struggled to say the right words.
"We were just tackling each other!" Asami said helping her friend.
"hmm... yeah that didn't look like tackling, your lucky it was me and not your parents Korra! and who spilled that all over the floor!" Bolin said both hands pointing towards the floor.
"umm we aciddently spilled it I'll clean-." Korra attempted to say but was cut off again.
"You know what I don't want to hear it just clean it up, I'm just going to go in the kitchen and eat my candy." Bolin said in a parents voice and stomped his way into the kitchen.
Korra looked to Asami in embarrassment and back down to the spilled hot coco and thought 'Just a perfect way to end a perfect day.'
