Viva Las Vegas ch. 7
Asami groaned a little as the sunlight shimmered through the blinds and snuggled into the warm body that she was holding onto. The raven haired always holds to something when she fell asleep ever since she was younger. She couldn't understand why she does this but it's the only way she could fall asleep. Korra is the perfect pillow and every night the engineer holds onto her.
It makes her feel safe hearing the fighter's breath going in and out in a restful sleep. The heiress wakes up and stretches a little. She sees the Alaskan girl still sound asleep and pushes the younger girl's bangs back. She seems so peaceful and not so grumpy like she usually is. I'm going to break her out of that grumpiness one way or another if it's the last thing I do.
Asami untangles herself from her wife and carefully gets out of bed. She walks out of the bedroom and into the kitchen to prepare breakfast. The raven haired girl looks through the cabinets and they were very bare. Looks like we have to go grocery shopping if we don't want to starve. The engineer walks back into the bedroom and shaking her sleeping wife. The darker woman groans a little but doesn't wake up. The paler woman sighs and continues to shake her wife.
"Korra, you need to get up" Asami said shaking her.
"I don't have to do diddly squat" Korra said pulling the cover further up her body.
Asami sighs, trying to think of something that would force Korra to wake up. A light bulb appears above her head as a idea pops into her head. The raven haired woman smirks as she swings her leg over her wife, straddling her. She leans in, capturing the fighter's earlobe between her teeth and nibbles on it.
The Alaskan jumps back into the headboard, holding her ear and a prominent blush on her face. The heiress giggles a little behind her hand. She may have overdone it a little but it was the only way that she could think of.
"W-What the hell, woman?" Korra asked glaring at Asami.
"I'm sorry but it was the only way to wake you up" Asami said shrugging.
"And you couldn't wake me up the normal way" Korra said frowning.
"I did and you went right back to sleep. Now that I have your attention, we need to go grocery shopping"
"Your point"
"My point is if we don't want to starve, we have go grocery shopping. Now get dressed so we can get going" Asami said crawling off of Korra.
Korra groans as she flops back down on the bed. She really don't want to get up but doesn't want deal with what the taller woman might do her if she doesn't get up. The shorter woman rolls out of the bed and walks into her closet. She grabs some clothes at random and walked into the bathroom to change. The fighter quickly changed into a black wife beater and blue jean shorts.
She walked into her room, putting her hair in a small ponytail and slipped on her Chucks. The Alaskan starts making the bed as her wife was still deciding on what to wear for the day. How hard is it to decide on what to wear? I mean I chose at random and I still look good. Okay, that was a little conceited but it's a little true. Korra finished making the bed when Asami walked into the bathroom.
The paler woman was in the bathroom taking a hot shower before putting on a crimson blouse and black skinny jeans. She applied light make-up onto her face and brushed her teeth before walking out of the bathroom. The raven haired woman walked in the bedroom to find the fighter laying on the bed with a bored expression on her face and is wearing a green hoodie. She sat down on the face and slipped on her heeled boots.
"Ready to go?" Asami asked standing up.
"I was ready 20 minutes ago" Korra said with an bored expression.
"I'm sorry but I like looking good and that takes time" Asami said grabbing her car keys.
Korra rolled her eyes as she grabs her house keys. The darker woman follows the paler woman out of the apartment before locking it. She follows the heiress outside to a red Satomobile. Well this is new. When did this get here? The engineer gets into the car and Korra gets into the passenger's seat. Asami starts up the car and pulls onto the street.
The ride to the grocery store was a rather quiet one with the shorter woman staring out of the window. She wasn't planning on making any attempts at having conversations with the taller woman. The raven haired woman sighed a little because she wants to able to have a conversation with the fighter but she isn't making it any easier on her.
They pulled into a local supermarket and parked in the parking lot. They got out of the car and into the supermarket. The engineer grabs a cart as they go through the aisles. The fighter grabs a bunch of sweets and junk food from off of the shelves. The heiress stares at her wife in confusion at her food choices. None of this stuff is healthy at all. Is this all that she eats?
"You know that none of this is good for you, right?" Asami asked picking up a box of cookies.
"So what, I'm just gonna burn it off anyways" Korra said shrugging.
"That's not the point, Korra. You should be eating healthier than this" Asami said frowning.
"What are you? My mother?" Korra asked raising an eyebrow.
"The last I checked, I am your wife" Asami said smirking.
Korra just rolled her eyes and didn't say anything else as the raven haired woman picked up some more healthier stuff. The fighter doesn't think her food choices are that bad if she's just gonna work it off in practice or in her matches. The engineer picked up some kale and the Alaskan was already feeling nauseous. How can anyone eat that stuff? It's gross and disgusting.
The darker woman sees a kid around the age of 6 reaching for a box of cereal on a shelf but couldn't reach it. She walked over towards the kid and picked her up by the waist. The little girl grabbed the box and Korra set her back down on the floor.
"Thank you, Lady" the kid said with a toothy grin.
"No problem, kid" Korra said smiling as she ruffling the little girl's hair.
The paler woman smiled a little at the interaction between her wife and the little girl. It's a first that she's seen the younger woman smile genuinely and she likes it. The older woman likes her wife's smile. The little girl waves at Korra as she runs off somewhere else in the store. The fighter waves at the girl before turning to the engineer and raised an eyebrow.
"What?"
"You're pretty good with kids" Asami said as they walked down the aisle.
"I guess since I have a lot of little cousins from my mother's side and I used to baby-sit a lot" Korra said shrugging.
"I didn't think you like kids"
"Why would you think that?" Korra asked frowning.
"I don't know. I just thought that you wouldn't" Asami said shrugging.
Korra was about to say something when she was stopped in mid stride. She was standing in the middle of the frozen section and staring at the someone from her past. She was 5'6, fair skin with a beauty mark on her left cheek, long jet black hair that cascaded down her back, and green eyes. Her name is Kuvira and she is the fighter's ex lover.
Kuvira and Korra both work for Tarrlok when they moved over to California to make a new life. They have similar personalities and became fast friends. The fighter loved spending time with the female fighter and their relationship quickly became physical. The Alaskan loved how she felt when she was with the older woman but she didn't feel the same the way that Kuvira did.
In the end, Korra ran from making their relationship exclusive. The young fighter wasn't expecting to see the other fighter since she switched managers since their 'break-up'. The fighter is wearing a red and black checkered shirt and blue jean short shorts. Damn, she looks even better than the last time I seen her. Kuvira looked up from her cart and made eye contact with the Alaskan girl.
"Korra, oh my spirit, is that you?" Kuvira asked running over towards Korra.
She grabs the younger girl and pulled her into a hug. Asami was confused on what is going on here. Who is this girl? Who is she to Korra? Why is this chick hugging my wife? This girl better step away from my wife before I make her. Wait what was that? Am I… jealous? No, that can't be it. The raven haired girl coughed into her hand, breaking the hug between the women in front of her.
"Asami, this is Kuvira: a old friend of mine. Kuvira, this is Asami, my w-wife" Korra said scratching her cheek sheepishly.
"W-Wife? Wow Korra, I'm impressed that you actually got married to someone. Well Asami, I am surprised that you managed to convince Korra to settle down" Kuvira said putting her hands on her hips.
"Well, I can be rather convincing when I want to be and I see something that I want" Asami said grabbing a hold of Korra's hand.
Korra blushes a little as Asami kisses her on the cheek. She doesn't know how to feel about the paler girl being affectionate with her. I don't know how I feel about this but I guess that I can away faster from her.
"How do you exactly know Korra?" Asami asked raising an eyebrow.
"We used to work under Tarrlok and we used to go out together" Kuvira said running her hand up and down Korra's arm.
"But that was a long, long time ago" Korra said removing the offending hand.
"Well it was good to see you again, Korra and it was nice meeting you, Asami" Kuvira said winking at Korra.
Asami wasn't sure why she doesn't like this Kuvira chick at all. Something about the girl is rubbing her the wrong way. How dare Kuvira flirt with her wife with her standing right next to her? This bitch has another thing coming, believe that. The couple continues to shop until they found everything that they need for awhile. They went through the check-out counter and the fighter paid for the groceries.
The couple carted the groceries to the car and placed them in the trunk. The engineer has been quiet for awhile now and it was making the Alaskan a little bit uncomfortable but she doesn't say anything about it. The heiress drives back to the apartment and it was a rather silent drive. It seemed a lot longer with the silence. The paler woman parked in front of the apartment and unlocked the trunk of the car.
They unloaded the groceries and carried them up. It took 3 trips to get all the groceries in the apartment. The darker woman watched as her wife started putting the food up and it was obvious that something was bothering her.
"Hey Angel, what's wrong?" Korra asked curious.
"Nothing's wrong with me" Asami said slightly hostile.
"I know that something's bothering you so what is it" Korra said folding her arms.
"I told you that nothing's wrong" Asami said frowning.
Korra rolled her eyes as she stopped Asami from putting away the rest of the groceries. She pushes the engineer up against a wall and frowns at her.
"You better start talking now or else" Korra said frowning.
"Why didn't you tell me about Kuvira? She was all over you earlier" Asami said glaring at Korra.
"I don't see what the deal is whether or not I told you about her. We dated a long time ago but it's over… wait why am I explaining myself to you. Why do you even care if she was all over me or not?" Korra asked frowning.
"Korra, you're my wife and I don't want to see some other woman's hands all over you"
"Wait, are you jealous?" Korra asked smirking.
"O-Of course not, I just don't like seeing her hands all over you like that, is all" Asami said folding her arms.
"Uh-huh right. If you think that I'm gonna cheat, you better think again. I may not like you all that much but I wouldn't cheat on you" Korra said folding her arms.
"I'm sorry about the comment that I made earlier, it wasn't right" Asami said sighing a little.
"It's cool. Let's put the rest of the groceries"
