Faking It ch. 14
Asami woke up the next morning with a hangover like no other. Dammit, I should've have listen to Korra and not agreed to that drinking contest with Desna. She's said that Southern Fire Water is really strong but I didn't think that it would that strong. I hope that I didn't know anything to embarrassing. The raven haired woman cautiously sat up and a hand throng her long wavy hair. The room was spinning slightly and she wanted to blow chunks but the feeling past when the heiress slowly breaths in and out through her nose.
"Looks someone finally woke up"
Asami looks to see that it was Korra and she leaning against her desk with her arms folded. A amused smirk was tugging at the edges of her mouth and it didn't help that the engineering major wanted to kiss that damn smirk off.
"I am never drinking Southern Fire Water ever again" Asami said flopping on the bed.
"I did tell you not to overdo it even then I told you not to get into a drinking with Desna in the first place. Here this should help" Korra said handing Asami some aspirin and a water bottle.
Asami graciously takes the pills and water bottle and quickly downs them in one fell swoop. It's gonna be a few minutes before the medicine takes a full effects but it could be worse. Naga crawls up on the bed and lays her head on the heiress' stomach. The raven haired woman smiles a little as she begins to stroke the white haired dog's head.
"Do you remember anything from last night?" Korra asked curious.
From Asami could tell, she heard a slight hesitation in Korra's voice. What would make Korra hesitant? Oh Spirit, what the hell did I do last night? Please tell me I didn't do anything embarrassing. I remember going to the club with Korra, watching the band's performance, getting into that stupid drinking Desna but everything after that is a blur. Why can't I remember what happen after that? Damn alcohol! Damn Desna! What the hell did I do?! The engineering sits up and leans back against the headboard.
"I remember going to the club with you and Desna, watching the band's performance and getting into the drinking contest your cousin but I don't remember anything after that. I didn't doing to embarrass you, did I?" Asami asked worriedly.
"No, you didn't do anything to embarrass me. I cut you guys off getting any drunker. I took you both home after leaving the club which was kinda hard but I managed. Asami, can I ask you something?" Korra asked turning serious.
"W-What is it?" Asami asked nervously.
"How long have you been in love with me?" Korra asked throwing Asami for a loop.
"P-Pardon me?"
"How long have you been in love with me? Last night when you were drunk, you made me promise not to tell myself that you were in love for the last 3 years. Why didn't say anything to me? I thought that we were friends" Korra said frowning slightly.
Asami stared at Korra with a wide eyed expression on her face. She wanted to disappear into the ground and never come out ever again. I can't believe that I told Korra about my feelings for while I was drunk. Cliché much? Normally I am able to hold my liquor but I underestimated the power of Southern Fire Water. It caused me to reveal my deepest feelings for my best friends. She was going to find out one way or another but I didn't want to be under the influence when I managed to tell her about them.
I could just that I was really drunk and didn't know what I was talking about. I can't say that because I don't want to lie about my feeling then late come out saying that I was lying about not having feelings for her. I can't do that to Korra and I refuse to. I'll take whatever I'll get from her and move on from it. I know that Korra will always be my best friend and care about me regardless if we pursue a romantic relationship or not. I'll be happy with just having her in life. It's time to woman up and take up some responsibility.
"We are friends Korra but I was afraid of your reaction when you would find out. It's true that I've in love with you for the last 3 years and I should've told you sooner but I didn't think that you were return my affections or want to be friends after told you. I was fear of you losing you" Asami said looking down.
"That's ridiculous. Even I didn't feel the same about you, I wouldn't stop being your friend. You stood by me when you found out my secret like a true friend. You're more than just a friend to me, Asami. You're my family and I will always be there for you no matter what even though you tried to jump me last night" Korra said jokingly.
"I w-what now?" Asami asked shocked.
"After you confessed your feelings for me, you started kissing me and straddled me. We didn't go any further than that since I stop us. I didn't want our time together to be while you were drunk and couldn't remember" Korra said smiling a little.
"This is so embarrassing. I am so sorry, Korra" Asami said red faced and all.
"It's okay. I'd forgive you since you're my girlfriend and I love you"
"Korra, your room is soundproofed. I don't think that your parents can hear us from outside the door" Asami said dropping her hands from her face.
"I know that, Asami. I care about you a lot more than I cared to admit. After a few days of being here and being alone with you, I've realized that I'm in love you with you. I want you to be my girlfriend for real" Korra said taking Asami's hands into her own.
"R-Really?" Asami asked surprised.
"Yeah really. Asami, will you be my girlfriend for real?"
"Of course, I love to be your girlfirned… for real this time" Asami said kissing Korra on the lips.
