She said, "I have to go home
'Cause I'm real tired you see

Korra was shoved onto the bed, her lover was kissing her aggressively to the point of leaving marks.

But I hate sleepin' alone
Why don't you come with me?"

She wrapped her legs around the woman on top of her, her nails digging through raven colored hair.

I said my baby's at home
She's probably worried tonight

Korra moaned loudly at the sensation of a lips feverishly working her neck, her hands tightly gripping the bed sheets.

I didn't call on the phone to
Say that I'm alright

In a brief moment of clarity, Korra looked up at woman above her and with labored breath she said "I love you...

…..Kuvira"

''She's not coming back
Because she's sleeping with me"

Then plunged her tongue into metal benders waiting mouth to continue their moment of ectasy. "I'll be with you, forever."

Korra woke up in a cold sweat, Asami was missing due to her being in Ba Sing Se discussing plans to utilize Kuvira's planned Earth Kingdom rail system. It's been seven days since she visited Kuvira, and she's been having the same dream every night since then. "Why can't I just dream about something not Kuvira for once?!" she starts berating her brain "How about a dream about Pabu?, or maybe me doing cool Avatar stuff... oh here's a nice idea! How about a dream about my girlfriend!" she finished, knocking on her skull to further drive her point.

"Ow." Korra hit herself a little too hard. "I'll just go outside and get some fresh air I guess, no way I'm going back to sleep anytime soon." she said to herself. Once outside, she took in a deep breath and decided to sit down on the concrete to meditate, trying to ease her mind of the thoughts continually clouding her head. She silently thanked Tenzin for drilling into her head the importance of meditation. Once she started to clear her mind, she was shaken by feeling of someone's hand touching her shoulder.

"Korra?"

"Who is th... Pema?! What are you doing up so late?"

"Tenzin's a loud sleeper, you wouldn't believe how often I do this." the air nomad replied, "though I should be asking you the same thing."

"I can't sleep." Korra deadpanned.

"Missing Asami aren't we?" Pema smugly said, nudging Korra's shoulders.

"No that's not it, I mean I do miss her, a lot.. but, it's just something that's been on my mind terribly this past week and I don't know how to get it out of my head." Korra explained.

Pema closely examined the Avatar's face "You remind me of myself when I fell in love with Tenzin, for weeks on end I couldn't get him out of my mind. I believe I already told you the story of how we got together, but that's not relevant anyway, you have someone." Pema said with a smile on her face, which quickly turned into concern when she noticed Korra's guilt ridden look.

"It's someone else isn't it? Please don't be Mako, I don't think I handle that all over again." Pema said, fearing for the worst. "It's not him Pema don't worry." Korra quickly replied, the she heard the air nomad breath a loud sigh of relief. "Might I ask who this person is, and if I should pray for their safety should Asami find out?" Pema asked, trying to find the source of Korra's trouble. "I'd prefer not to say, you'd probably freak out and smack me across the head with a broom." Korra replied, obviously not letting anyone else outside of Lin find out who she has feelings for.

"C'mon Korra, I live in a temple raising two kids and Meelo, I never get to hear anything juicy... that's not dealing with Opal's air bison of course." Pema pleaded, obviously trying to get important details of who else managed to capture Korra's heart. When Korra refused to answer, a defeated Pema started to give Korra some advice.

"You can either bury those feelings or confront them, but eventually you're going to choose." Pema said. "You have a good woman in Asami and I'd hate to see you give that up by pursuing this, so my advice to you is, let it go. You'll be hurting, I know... but the old saying goes, time heals all wounds. It'll get better trust me." Pema finished, then she got up and wished Korra a good night and returned to her room. Korra thought about her advice for a while, then she thought about the last bit of advice Pema gave her which didn't go so well. "You were right about one thing Pema", Korra said to herself then the words of Lin Beifong echoed in her head.

"Excuses... excuses, so that's how we confront our feelings kid? By running away? I would expect that from Tenzin, but not you!"

"I have to confront it."

"Then why are you doing this to me?!" with tears pouring out here eyes at this point, Kuvira continues "Was this some sort of sick joke? To have me fall madly in love with you only for you to crush whatever is left of my heart?! I get it!". Kuvira then starts mockingly smacking the back of her wrist "Bad Kuvira! Bad girl! If this was a part of my punishment you did a damn good job Korra!".

"That's not it..."

"Then what is it?!" a now enraged Kuvira replied.

"Kuvira, you know I have a girlfriend... I love Asami." Korra carefully said.

"...And I love you Korra."

With that statement, Kuvira moves in to kiss the Avatar, but Korra turns her face and says "This can't happen... I'm sorry", then quickly opens the cell door and runs out.

"No...

"No...

"NO!" Kuvira screams as she wakes up from her nightmare. Her mind has been replaying that scene for seven consecutive days and she can't figure out how to stop it. With a loud sigh, Kuvira gets out of bed and does the one thing that helps clear her mind, metal bending forms.

She starts going through the rigid movements slowly, then starts getting faster and more aggressive the more thoughts of Korra start returning to her mind. "Argh!" a frustrated Kuvira growled out then wildly starts swinging at air to express her anger.

"I was a fool to think you loved me..." she said to herself in defeat. Kuvira decides to try to get some more sleep when the cell door opened behind her. 'Probably the guards here to tell me to shut up' she thought to herself.

Kuvira then turned around to apologize, then the pair of blue eyes that met her sucked the wind right out of her.

"Korra?"

"We need to talk..."
