Author's note: Hey Guys, thank y'all so much for all the nice reviews. I'm enjoying writing this story, but mostly because a few of you are liking it. I'm going to start commenting to the reviews at the bottom of the chapter because I want to talk to you guys and I've seen other people doing that and I like the idea. Hope y'all enjoy the next chapter.
Every memory of last night was a constant reminder of what Korra had tried to forget. The Avatar looked down at the red headed woman in her bed. She really is beautiful. Before she knew it, her hand was brushing a stray hair from ginger's face.
The woman stirred from her sleep, and Korra tensed up. "Good morning. Last night was amazing. I was thinking maybe we could do this again?" Ginger said while stretching, and looking deep into Korra's sapphire eyes.
"I wasn't really honest with you last night and that's not fair to you, Ginger." Korra looked down in shame. She felt like she had used Ginger. Was she just like Asami? Korra didn't want to go down that road, so she decided she would tell the reason for last nights events. If she got a slap in the face she knew she deserved every sting on her cheek.
"Okay, what were you not honest about?" Ginger sat up in the bed, and her eyes never left Korra's.
Korra knew she couldn't tell Ginger the whole truth, but a version wouldnt' hurt. "Well last night me and Asami had a pretty bad break up, and I went to the bar to forget about her..." Korra looked back up at those dark eyes, but she didn't see anger. Instead she saw a light dancing in them, and a smile painted on her lips.
"Korra do you really think I didn't know that you were going through a break up? I should be the one to apologize to you. I don't want you to think I took advantage of your sadness. I've just liked you for so long, and you finally noticed me. I couldn't let that moment get away. Will you forgive me?" Korra couldn't believe this woman was so kind and caring. Maybe I picked the wrong person. "There is nothing to forgive. I enjoyed every second of last night." Gingers right eye brow raised and she smirked.
"Really? Did you have enough fun for a repeat?" The red headed woman leaned up, and placed her face close to Korra's waiting for a response. Korra was wide eyed at the seductive tone and close distance of the gorgeous woman.
"Well... I think that could be arranged." A hand shot up and gripped Korra's neck bringing their lips together. Ginger licked Korra's lip in permission to explore her mouth. The avatar gladly allowed entrance and their tongues fought for dominance. Korra took the lead, and moved over Ginger until she was completely on top. The two women's naked bodies moved in sync, and Korra was once again lost in the moment.
"So why do you think I can convince Korra to go along with your plan?" Bolin was looking at Lin like she was crazy.
"Well your her best friend, and if anyone can talk her into something it's you. Also your dating my niece, so you own me big, and don't think that I don't have my eyes on you. Nothing goes down in this town with out me knowing about it." Lin glared at Bolin and he felt as though he might pee himself right there and then.
"Ok ok. I was just saying that Korra is really stubborned." Bolin turned to the door, and knocked. There was no answer and Lin was getting frustrated. "Knock again. She has to be home." Bolin walked over to a brick in the apartment and wiggled it out. There was a hidden compartment which had a key in it. "She is probably asleep which means she is dead to the world. She started leaving this key so I could wake her." Lin rolled her eyes. "Well what are you waiting for open the door."
Bolin placed the key in the lock and entered through the door. The sight they saw sent alarm through them. Things were shattered on the ground, and it looked like there had been a struggle. The shock wore off when they both heard a faint noise coming from the bedroom. It sounded like someone was in pain. They both ran to the room and flew the door open.
What the image they were greeted with was not what they were expecting. Bolin's jaw nearly hit the floor and his face was beet red. Korra was completely naked and on top of Ginger. The covers had dropped below the Avatars waste which exposed both the naked women's chests. Korra turned around in the middle of pleasuring the red head beneath her. "What the fuck! Get out!" Korra grabbed the bedsheets and brought them over to hide them both away from prying eyes at the doorway.
"Well get dressed. We need to talk to you after your... Done." Lin said and gave Bolin a shove toward the living room. The earth bender was still gawking at the two woman as he was pulled out of the room. The door shut, and Korra looked over her shoulder to make sure the intruders were gone.
"That was embarrassing. I'm so sorry. I didn't think they would be here this morning." Korra's face was moved back by gentle hands. The look Ginger was giving her was making wetness pull between her legs again.
"I think we have time to finish what we started." Korra didn't protest with Ginger, but rather continued where they had left off.
"Well I don't think she is sad anymore. We might be able to talk her Into this plan of yours, Chief." Lin looked at her watch, and back at the door they had just barged in on.
"What's taking them so long? They should be dressed by now." Bolin laughed at the impatient police woman. "I don't think they are to concerned about putting clothes on at the moment." Bolin nudged Lin and she gave him a glare in response. Finally the bedroom door opened and out stepped Korra with a goofy looking smile. She walked around the couch and sat in the recliner in the corner.
"So what brings this little intrusion." Lin sat up straight, and with irritation in her voice said. "Well I'm glad to see your heart is so easily mended, but we still have the Amon situation to take care of, kid." Korra smile faded and she became more serious with the mention of Amon. "She told you where he is?" Lin shook her head no. "She doesn't know. Asami only met him once and that's because he wanted it to happen. So we made a plan, but we need your full corporation." Korra didn't like the way Lin had said "we". Did Asami trick the chief as well with her ways? No way Lin thought this was a good idea.
"What's the plan chief?" Lin looked to Bolin to finish her thoughts. Maybe if it came out of the friendly bender it would be easier for Korra to except it. Bolin got the hint, because he started to speak. "Well kor, you know we only have your best interest at heart. I know all about the deception, because Lin told me what happened last night. We care about you. I would never want anyone to ever hurt you like that, but we need Asami to catch Amon." Korra interrupted the ramblings of Bolin. "Spit it out Bo. What is the plan?" Bolin Gulped loudly knowing the next words would not come out as easily.
"Well the plan is to go about your life like you never found out Asami was using you. That means you two need to be seen together as a... Couple." Korra's face contorted from shock to confusion and back to anger in a matter of seconds. "You not only expect me to see her again, but also act as though I'm in love with her!? It's not going to happen!" Bolin gave the Avatar a sad smile.
"I know she betrayed you, but think like The Avatar not a broken hearted woman. This could be your only way to capture Amon. He has hurt a countless number of people. Are you really willing to give up this opportunity just because this woman hurt your pride?" Korra expression softened and she realized how selfish she was at that very moment. Yes it would hurt to see Asami again, but it would hurt more to know she let her emotions get in the way of being the Avatar people needed her to be.
"Your right Bolin. I'll do it if it means to save people's lives." Lin looked at the burly earth bender next to her impressed with how he persuaded Korra to agreeing. She turned back to The Avatar and spoke while standing from the couch.
"Well now that this is settled we will leave you and your guest alone. Come by the station tonight around 8:00pm, and we will figure out the details together. Oh and by the way maybe don't bring up the whole drop dead gorgeous red head your sleeping with. We don't want to make this more complicated than it already is." Korra scoffed at the Chief.
"Please Asami wouldn't care if I slept with all of Republic City." Lin laughed at the naive Avatar in front of her. "I don't think you know what your talking about. When I asked her to help save your life she said yes with no hesitation. Even when I told her about a lesser sentence she didn't seem to care. She was only in it to save your life. She loves you Korra even if you don't want to see it." Korra rolled her eyes at Lin. Obviously she is a better actress than she expected, if she could fool the chief of police into believing that as well. Bolin finally broke the awkward silence.
"Well we will see you tonight. Tell Ginger I said hi." Bolin winked in Korra's direction, and started walking out the front door with Lin. The door shut and Korra slumped down in her chair and placed a hand over her eyes. I can't believe I will have to see her again. It's the only way though. At least one good thing will happen from this. "Everything ok?" Korra lifted her head from her hands to see a long legged beauty walking her way with only a T-shirt to cover her body. Korra's mouth went dry at the vision in front of her.
Ginger noticed the way the Avatar was staring at her, and decided to push her luck. The red head sat on Korra's lap, and wrapped her arms around her neck. Korra finally found her voice. "Yes but I want to be honest with you, since you have been honest with me." Ginger bit her lip and shook her head waiting for Korra to continue. "Well I am going to work with the police and my ex to get to a very dangerous man. The only way to get to this man is by acting like we are still together. So if your freaked out by that I understand." Ginger didn't speak instead she leaned in and kissed Korra hard on the mouth. She pulled back and finally spoke up. "If that's what needs to happen I can wait for you." Korra was mesmerized by this understanding woman on her lap. I did choose the wrong person. Wait maybe I'm just rebounding. I don't want to hurt her like Asami hurt me. Korra thoughts were driving her insane, so she decided to make the whole situation clear to Ginger. "I don't want to ever cause you pain. I'm not sure what I want or what this is." Korra waved her hand between the two of them. "But I like you and so I have to say I'm not ready for a relationship." Ginger kept smiling and wrapped her arms further around the dark shoulders. Bringing their bodies closer.
"I never want to push you into something to fast or anything you don't want, but that said I had fun last night and I think you did too. I want to see you again even if it's just as friends. However if you want to be friends with benefits I wouldn't argue with that either." Korra looked up into those dark eyes she had already grown fond of. She didn't know what she wanted, but the sound of benefits sounded nice. Every time she was with Ginger she felt the pain in her heart ease.
"I don't see why we couldn't do that, but we will have to be secretive about it. No one can know we are hanging out together. Especially not Asami." Korra didn't really care what Asami thought, but the Chief was right it would do no good for her to know. "I can keep a secret. What do you say we christen this new friendship." Ginger gave a seductive smirk, and Korra knew she was going to enjoy this new agreement.
Asami was waiting patiently for Lin and Bolin to return. Where are they? They should be back by now. It has been hours. thirty more minutes passed, and the two finally came into the police station. Asami couldn't hold back her excitement. She ran over to Lin.
"Well what did she say? Will she do it?" Lin's face was unreadable which only made Asami more anxious for the answers. "She said yes to the plan, but don't get to excited it took a lot of convincing." Asami didn't care the fact that she would be seeing Korra again and hopefully getting the chance to make her fall for her all over again was enough.
"When do we get started?" Asami's voice sounded desperate. Bolin stepped up to Asami and placed a large hand on the pale woman. "Korra is coming tonight at 8:00 pm, so we can come up with a solid plan. Asami, remember she still hasn't forgiven you for what you did. You need to keep your space from her." Asami nodded her head but inside she was still jumping up and down knowing she would see the love of her life tomorrow.
Then she thought about how Korra must have looked when they went to see her, and grew concerned. "When you saw her did she look like she was okay?" Bolin had stepped back and laughed into his hand.
"Yeah she looked like she was doing REAL good." Bolin got out between burst of laughter. Lin elbowed the earth bender trying to give the hint for him to shut his mouth. Asami quirked an eye brow, but ignored the interaction between the two. She would get to finally get to explain herself to Korra and she wasn't going to blow it this time.
Korra took a deep breath before walking through the double doors of the police station. The last time she was here she was hopelessly in love with the very woman who had back stabbed her.
Now she was a train wreck with a hole in her heart. Lets get this over with as soon as possible. Korra could see the chief in her office with Bolin and a long dark haired woman.
Korra made her way over to the office and knocked. The face she never wanted to see again turned quickly, and had a intense stare. Those green eyes could have been her undoing. She pried her eyes away from the enticing ones staring her down.
"I'm here so let's get this over with so I can leave. I have plans." Korra walked to the furthest corner away from Asami. She could feel those same green eyes watching her every movement. Lin cleared her throat and spoke first. "Well we are going to have Asami talk to her father again, but we don't want them to have the upper hand. So whatever meeting place they have planned out is not going to happen. Asami needs to talk them into a meeting in an area that we control. That's going to be the hard part. Asami we will need a few days to set everything up. Until then you two need to act as though nothing has changed. I'm sure Amon has someone following you at all times. Which is why I put a bag on Asami head so he didn't know I dragged her out that night." Asami's eyes finally left Korra's face, and she looked over to Lin.
"Ok sounds like a good plan." Lin walked over to Korra who was looking like a child pouting in the corner. "Korra that means you need to act like you are a love sick fool just like the other day." Korra sent daggers through her eyes at Lin.
"I was never love sick for that! I was tricked! Big difference.!" The words stung Asami, but she knew she deserved every insult. Lin broke the awkward moment. "Well whatever it was you need to do it again. That means Asami spends the night with you until we can finally get to Amon." Korra's mouth felt like it would unhinge from how wide it opened from shock. "No way that's where I draw the line!" Bolin steeped in between the two woman afraid Korra might say something she would regret.
"Hey let's cool down. Korra this is the only way that Amon wont get suspicious. You have to do this right, or all of this is for nothing. Also maybe you can act like seeing Asami isn't a choir in public." Korra looked over to Asami and let out a long breath she didn't know she was holding in.
"Your right Bo. I need to remember this is not for me. I'll try harder." Korra walked over to Asami for the first time and leaned down and gave her a lopsided smile. Which sent a fluttering feeling in Asami's stomach. Korra reached out a hand for Asami to take. The reach was accepted with a pale hand, and before Asami knew it she was pulled up into the Avatars arms. Korra wrapped her strong hands around Asami's small waist. Asami thought her heart had stopped, but she wasn't complaining. Every touch from Korra made Asami want more.
She forgot anyone else was in the office. Pale hands ran through the short cropped brown hair. Asami leaned down lost in the moment. She wanted to taste those lips that she had only been away from for a night, but that one night felt like an eternity. Korra met the red painted lips the rest of the distance.
Then the southerner pulled away, and whispered. "You ready to go home my love?" Asami melted by the name Korra gave her. She nodded not able to speak. Korra pulled back from the embrace and grabbed the taller woman's hand. Korra dragged Asami out the office door, but she turned back to say one last thing.
"I'll go along with this plan, but make it fast. I don't want to spend one second more than I have to with this woman." Asami's heart felt like it had fallen from her chest and shattered into a million unsalvageable pieces.
She might have gotten to see Korra again, but the tan woman absolutely wanted nothing to do with her. They walked out of the office hand and hand. From a distance they might have looked like a couple. However Asami knew she would probably lose Korra forever after this was done. The thought made Asami feel sick to her stomach. If this is all I get to have of Korra I will make sure every touch, word, and look counts. They had taken Korra's car, and as soon as they sat in the back the Avatar distanced herself from Asami.
They drove in uncomfortable silence all the way to the apartment. Korra played her part perfectly. When Lee opened the door she was Asami's girlfriend in all since of the word. The pale woman couldn't even tell the difference herself, but when they were behind closed doors again The Avatar was cold and harsh.
"Well I'll sleep on the couch and you can take the bed." Korra said. Asami shook her head. "I'm not taking your bed away. I'll take the couch." Korra opened her mouth to say something, but she was interrupted by a knock at the door.
She moved to the threshold to open it. In the doorway stood Ginger. "Sorry am I early?" Korra looked to Asami and back to the entryway before answering. "There has been a change of plans."
