AN: A drabble I went on a writing spree with for a "brain exercise"

No prompt. Just wrote what came to mind ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"..."

Korra couldn't help but eye this particular bottle of perfume intensely as she stared at the label. If she was being honest, she had no idea what the hell was considered decent or even good to say the least. That brings her to the reason as to why she was here in the first place. True be told, she didn't know either. All she knew was that she was going to visit her girlfriend at her place very soon but she didn't want to come empty handed. Especially if it was going to be her first time there after they've been dating for about a month now. That and the fact that she was going to help her study for calculus as well.

Her girlfriend was an upperclassman of hers from her uni and they met through this mixer she went to not too long ago. From what Korra knew, her name was Asami Sato and she came from a well off family and was extremely popular on campus. She was also dual majoring in engineering and business to top that off. Not only was she gorgeous to the boot, she was extremely smart as well. That then leads to another question, how exactly did Korra end up dating such a babe?

Well… the answer was quite simple.

Asami somehow ended up sitting next to her when they were at the BBQ grill and it turns out, they had more in common than Korra thought. Then after this and that, they wound up leaving early and headed to a bar together. Several drinks later, as expected, they went to a love hotel afterwards. By the next morning, Korra found herself stark naked and in this sudden relationship apparently. She was nervous as shit to say the least.

"Fuck… does she even like lavender?"

With a disgruntled groan, Korra looked at the time.

"Shit I gotta get going, I still need to go get the cakes…"

Rubbing her neck, she walks up to the registers before checking out. Once she had the small gift prepared, she quickly headed to one of the local bakeries on the way to Asami's apartment before encountering a similar dilemma.

"Damn it… what does she like?"

With her lips thinning out, Korra's eyebrow twitches as she stares at the large selection. It wasn't until the cashier asked her a question that shocked her back to reality.

"What can I get for you today?"

Korra forces out an awkward grin as she quickly eyes the menu.

"Um… c-can I get a box of six?"

"Sure of course. What kind of pastries would you like today?"

Her gaze inches back at the display case again.

"Uh… can I get that blueberry tart, chocolate croissant, pig in a blanket and uh…" she scratches her cheek before randomly pointing at a few that looked aesthetically pleasing. "And those other three please."

"Of course. Will that be all for you?"

"Yes, thank you."

"Alright that'll be…"

Finally, one dilemma after another, Korra was finally in front of Asami's apartment. But rather than a college dorm room you'd expect most college students to rent out, her place was a condo. A condo that cleared spelled well off. It wasn't that extreme that you'd call it a mansion or castle but it was clear enough that told Korra that Asami was richer than she initially thought. As she stared at her nice looking apartment door, she got nervous all over again. She stares at the box in her hand before contemplating her choice of intruding gifts.

"Hah… maybe I shouldn't have gotten anything…" she pouts a bit before quickly shaking her head. "No no, it's rude to come empty handed." Taking a deep breath, she puffs out her chest before ringing the doorbell. "It's fine… it'll be fine… I'll be fine."

The few seconds it took for Asami to come to the door felt like an eternity. Korra even had a moment to think back to their hot night that day and her checks grew red at the thought. Just like how that day had come around, today was no different and it was as if Korra was living a dream too good to be true. Sure enough, Asami finally opens the door with a bright smile.

"Hey you made it," Asami greets before leaning outside to kiss Korra on the cheek. She then notices the box in Korra's hand before smiling softly. "Oh, did you bring snacks? You didn't have to, you're so sweet." She then reaches to grab it before nodding her head inside, "Well come on in, make yourself at home."

Korra blinks rapidly before cupping her cheek at the warm sensation. She really was astonished about how good Asami looked. She was just wearing a simple baggy maroon tee of their school's mascot and grey booty shorts yet, for some reason, she looked as if she was a part of some sleepwear catalog. If not, at the very least a well above pay grade model for campus wear. Her brain must have been buffering for too long that Asami pauses to give her a funny look.

"You're not coming in?"

With her jaw dropping ever so slightly, Korra let out the softest gasp before quickly stepping inside. She shuts the door behind her before awkwardly mustering out, "P-Pardon the intrusion."

Asami smiles again before swiping some hair behind her back and heading to the kitchen. "Shoes off okay? I don't like tracking dirt around."

Korra immediately starts kicking off her shoes without a second delay. "Yeah. Gotcha."

"Oh, and feel free to sit anywhere okay?" Asami voices as she sets the box down onto the counter. She takes a quick peek inside before asking, "Did you want to jump right into it and study or have these snacks first? Better yet, you want me to give you a quick tour of my place?"

Korra finally caught up to her steps after gawking around her condo in astonishment. "Uh… i-if you don't mind how about studying…? I'm in a pinch and a test is coming up soon…" She responds with uncertainty.

Asami chuckles at that. "Sure, let me grab my notes then. We can have these when we need a break."

"O-Okay…"

As Asami disappears into a room, Korra quickly shuffles over into the living room before taking a seat on the floor. She was stiff as a brick but somehow cracked at her curiosity before rubbing the carpet she was sitting on. It literally had to be the softest thing she had ever touched in her life. She had to suppress her pleased giggle and not before long, Asami came back.

"Alright, let's get started shall we?"

When Korra glances up, to her surprise her eyes widened when she saw Asami in glasses. If she wasn't already as beautiful as she was already, Korra would've had a gay panic, again, and melt down by now. Asami notices Korra's slight reaction before she smiles coyly and sits down across from her. She sets down her notes before briefly sitting up real quick to kiss Korra's cheek again.

"Where did you say you needed help again?"

Korra's cheeks were warm as she quickly fumbled out her notes. She mindlessly flipped through the pages before finding the problem she had been struggling with. "Well uh… for this one, she flips her notebook around, "I can't seem to figure out how to solve it."

Asami tucks a strand of hair behind her ear before leaning in to get a closer look. "Let's see… ah, this one's a little tricky. You have to use this formal…" she flips through her notes before showing Korra. "After that, you want to use that answer and plug it in this formula…" she flips through some more pages.

"..."

Half listening to Asami's explanation, Korra couldn't help but stare at Asami's lips. They were so plump and full and red despite the fact she wasn't wearing any makeup, particularly her signature lipstick. Her natural beauty really showed and even then, it wasn't as if she wore that much makeup to begin with. It honestly was such a treat to be taught by someone so gorgeous this up close and personal.

After a good amount of time through their studying, Asami had slowly but surely made her way around the table until she was seated next to Korra. Their legs were touching and Korra found herself more distracted than before. She was busy focusing on dirty thoughts and even more so thanks to their love hotel experience. She had to bite back a moan at the recollection. Hands down Asami was her best sexual encounter that's for sure.

"-ra…Kor…Korra!"

Finally realizing that she was being called on, Korra faces Asami to have her face right in front of hers. She blushes at their close vicinity before she squeaked out:

"Y-Yes?"

Asami's eyes trail down to Korra's lips. Then without hesitation, she leans in for a kiss. Her lips caught Korra's and their first one was soft and chaste. After that, it quickly escalated and they were engaged in a passionate kiss. Asami's hand found Korra's neck and she pulled her in for a deeper kiss. Their tongues found each other and Korra found herself moaning at Asami's advances. But, just as how abrupt the kiss came, it ends just like that to Korra's dismay. Immediately missing the softness and warmth of her lips, Korra couldn't help but pout slightly.

Giggling softly, Asami pulls back fully before standing up. "How about we take a little break? I don't know about you but I can hear those pastries you brought earlier since they're calling our names."

Korra couldn't help but eye Asami's legs as she walked away before quickly realizing she should respond. "Oh y-yeah, sure sounds nice."

Asami opens the box before walking to her cupboard to grab some plates. "Which one did you want?"

What the hell did I get again? She blinked a few times before answering generically. "Uh… whatever is fine."

"Got it… what do you want to drink?"

"Um…" Korra starts fiddling around awkwardly. "Tea if you have some?"

"Coming right up." Shortly enough, Asami returns with two plates in one hand and two cups in the other.

Right when Asami was about to set them down on the table, Korra cursed herself for the lack of planning. She quickly scrambles to push aside their school work and then once they were both settled, they ate in relative silence. That's when Korra realized she forgot about her other gift. She immediately shoves her hand into her pocket and pulls out the little perfume bottle.

"Right, I almost forgot about this Asami. Here, I got this for you."

Asami looks at her with a slightly surprised face before she melts at the sweet gesture. "Aw thank you Korra, you're too sweet." She quickly leans in to peek Korra on the lips before looking at the gift. "Oh? You got me… air freshener? That's… sweet of you." By reflex, she looks off to the side before sniffing her room. "I could've sworn my place generally smells decent but uh…"

Korra's face immediately dropped. "Wait what—" she snatches back the bottle before getting a better look at it. "Aw shit—" she slaps her own face, "That was supposed to be perfume."

"Pfft—" covering her mouth, Asami wasn't able to hold it in and started laughing out loud.

Korra's face turned bright red at that before going back to drinking her tea. "I shouldn't have said anything…"

Finally catching her breath, Asami wipes her tears before kissing Korra's cheek with a grin. "No no, that was perfect. I love it, thank you."

With her cheeks turning pink again, but for another reason this time, Korra rubs her cheek bashfully. "You're welcome…"

xXx

It's been officially two months since they've started 'dating' and Korra still felt like it had to be a figment of her imagination. Believe or not, she still didn't know the reason as to why they were dating. Sure… the sex they had was amazing but if that was the case, they'd just be friends with benefits so there was no point in Korra coming over to her place to hang out all the time. The affection that Asami also gave her was more than enough to say that they were dating as well. Public eyes would confirm that even if Korra, herself, was confused.

That leads the two of them to their current situation…

Some way or another, Korra found herself on a double date, with Asami of course, but also with her close friend, Opal and her boyfriend Bolin. They were at some popular cafe downtown and surprisingly enough, Korra found her friends quite delightful. Since she was a student from abroad, she hadn't gotten close with anyone yet so she didn't realize how much she misses hanging out with friends. At least till now. That… and also the somewhat bizarre feeling of being close to someone in an intimate way. Ever since they were seated, Asami hadn't moved her hand away from her thigh. At least when possible.

She didn't hate it of course… she just found it… weird.

Weird?

That wasn't quite it though. Amidst of her pondering, Korra ends up rubbing her neck before the urge to use the bathroom defeats her. She didn't want to inconvenience Asami since she was sitting on the outer seat but her bladder protested with that. Clearing her throat softly, Korra softly excuses herself.

"Sorry guys, I gotta go to the bathroom real quick."

Asami was the first to react. She turns to face Korra before letting go of her thigh, leaving a cold spot in her place, before responding. "Oh in that case, I'll go with you." She then slides out the booth before offering Korra a hand for some reason.

Korra gives her a soft smile. She quickly grabs it before sliding out the booth. "Guess we'll be right back then."

Bolin waves her off before quickly adding. "Oh, did you want a refill on the fries? And chicken nuggets!"

Opal slaps his arm. "Bo! Enough of the snacks! We gotta go soon, we've been here for almost an hour already!"

"Ow—" he rubs his arm, "But their fries and nuggets are to die for!"

"Yeah but if we eat another serving, we're gonna be late to the mover!"

"But—"

Not realizing she was still holding Asami's hand, Korra laughs at the two of them. "Why don't you just get some for to go? We can smuggle them in and snack on them during the movie."

Bolin quickly grins before snapping his fingers. "Smart! You're a genius Korra~!"

With a wink and lopsided grin, Korra finally realizes that she was holding hands with Asami as they walked across the cafe. She looks at their hands before blushing and looking away. Hoping her hands weren't gonna clam up, she thanked the spirits that they were close to the bathroom. Once she was behind a stall door, as she relieved herself, she couldn't help but twitch at the awkwardness since she heard Asami doing the same. Her face was beet red and she cups her face to hide her embarrassment though no one would be able to see it either way. By the time she is done with her inner turmoil, she's finally out the door.

Although, Asami had already beaten her to it and was in the middle of washing her hands. Korra follows in her steps and by the time she was drying it with a paper towel, she was engrossed in looking at Asami fix her lipstick. Asami caps her lipstick before rolling her lips together. She puckers it one last time before glancing at Korra. Once they make eye contact, Asami smiles sweetly before speaking up.

"Shall we?"

Korra tosses the towel into the trash as she grins back softly. "Yeah, sounds good."

Her sweet smile never left and Asami took Korra's hand before they left the restroom together. The rest of their date was as one would expect, fun. After watching that comedic action, thriller yet rom-com mover, they all decided to head down to the arcade to burn off their, mostly Bolin's, food coma. But, somewhere along the line, Korra and Asami had strayed off to the side as Bolin and Opal practically fought with that particular crane game machine. Holding Korra in closely by her waist, Asami eyes Korra intently before leaning down to kiss her.

Korra moans at the gesture before returning her kiss with an equally passionate peck. Her hands began to wander down Asami's curvy hips and sure enough, Asami pulled back to breathe with lidded eyes. Korra could feel her warm breath on her cheek and shortly after, Asami leaned back down to kiss her cheek before dragging her lips up to her ear. She nips it softly before running her hands down to Korra's toned ass, giving it a healthy squeeze. To finish her off, she blows into her ear before whispering:

"You wanna head home first?"

With the way Asami was kissing her neck, Korra honestly wouldn't mind getting more friendly right here, right now.

"M-Mmh… yeah… sounds great."

Korra could feel Asami's lip curl into a smile. Asami kisses her skin one last time before pulling back, much to Korra's dislike. She pushes back her hair before heading over to where Bolin and Opal were. After ending their date just like that, Korra and Asami made it back to Asami's condo in record time and the moment the door slammed shut, the quicker their clothes fell to the floor. In no time, they were in bed and Korra basically blacked out until the next morning.

xXx

Mindlessly playing with the ends of Asami's hair, Korra sunk into the library's couch as Asami was lying on top of her. They were studying for their own individual classes of course but Korra was in the middle of taking a break. She couldn't exactly move so she had nothing to do but carefully look at Asami's figure as she read a book. The way her brows creased in deep thought and the way her lips parted in concentration. Korra was really, really enjoying the sight of this.

Eventually, Korra's curiosity got the better of her so she couldn't help but play with Asami's lips. Her index finger brushes across her lower lip and the moment it does, she pokes at it before slowly pulling it down and playfully rubbing her chin. After doing that for a few moments, Korra finally realizes what she was doing the moment she realized Asami wasn't reading her book anymore. Her girlfriend was just staring at her intently as if she was deciphering what Korra was doing to her and in the public library of all places.

Shortly enough, Asami chuckles before giving her a sly smile which Korra normally saw in bed. "What are you doing?"

Korra twitches. What was she doing? Blinking her eyes rapidly, she took in the view. Asami was practically sprawled out on her lap and if her anyone had to put a name on it, they'd probably say that they had that high 'sexual tension' and add in comments like 'get a room!' or something along those lines. Korra finally retracts her hand before leaning back and looking away.

"N-Nothing."

"Hmmmm…" Asami couldn't help but grin deviously before shifting slightly. She couldn't help but tease of course. Sneakily slipping her hand under Korra's shirt, she ends up giving Korra's abs a wet kiss, making her tense up immediately.

With her brain cells practically malfunctioning, Korra only managed to sputter out, "S-Sami!"

Asami raises her eyebrow at the nickname before playfully poking back with some extra flare. "Yes Korbear~?" She continues to mess with Korra's abs, softly raking her fingers up and down her muscles.

Korra was beet red as she panicked and snapped her head up to look around. Thankfully no one had noticed yet before she looked back down to whisper angrily. "W-What are you doing!"

"Mmh…" Asami looks her in the eyes before lifting her shirt up briefly and kissing her stomach. "Nothing."

Spotting a professor in the distance, Korra's jaw dropped before she quickly hides their indecency by covering Asami's face with her book. She was practically sweating bullets as he walked by and Asami continued to tickle her in various ways. Of course, Korra squeaks by reflex, incurring the wrath of the professor by making eye contact with him. Korra quickly grins awkwardly with a slight wave to which he ignores with a strange face before walking away.

Once the coast was clear, Korra tossed that book aside quicker than you could blink before whispering back in offense. "Asami Sato!"

Asami tilts her head back to make eye contact. She has this smug look on her face but also a playful one that 'claimed' innocence at the same time. "Yes?" They both knew the truth and the fact that her hand was still buried under her shirt was proof of it.

"Watch it…" Korra gives her the stink eye, "Don't make me come after you when you least expect it."

Asami draws playful circles on her toned stomach. "I'll look forward to it then." She then proceeds to blow Korra a kiss with a wink.

xXx

"Iroh!" Asami exclaims with a bright smile, one that Korra hadn't seen before. She quickly leaves their table to walk off to hug this random guy.

Korra clearly cocks an eyebrow at the sudden gesture and there were a few thoughts running through her head. Who was that? A former boyfriend? A friend? An acquaintance? Some sort of answer was given when Asami proceeds to kiss him on the cheek. A little too friendly Korra would say. She just shrunk back into her seat, watching their exchange.

"Well if it isn't lil' tinker!" He says back with a charming smile. He easily returns Asami's hug and to say the least, they looked good standing next to each other.

Well that doesn't help Korra in the slightest bit.

"What are you doing here? I thought you were still in service?" Asami practically beams with bright eyes, still not letting go of his waist.

Iroh simply smiles back handsomely. "I am, I was just in the area thanks to a mission. I was planning to stop in here for take out so I would have never thought I would run into you here of all places. How's Hiroshi?"

This time, Asami playfully slaps his bicep, which is something she only did to Korra most of the time. "You know, the usual. Stuck in his office most of the time." She laughs again before finally taking a damned step back.

Iroh must've felt Korra boring daggers into him because he finally looks up and acknowledges her presence. He quickly takes a step back as well before bowing slightly, "Oh my apologies. Where are my manners? You should've told me you were with a friend."

Blinking once, Asami finally remembers she was with someone as well. "Oh right, sorry about that." She gestures her hand at Korra, "This is Korra, my girlfriend."

Korra lets out a slight sigh of relief at that. At least her girlfriend status was still active.

"Korra, this is Iroh, one of my family friends. We've been close since we were little thanks to our family businesses."

So that's who he was. Taking that as her cue, Korra finally gets up out of her seat to greet him properly. When Iroh extends his hand for a shake, she accepts it with ease.

"My name's Iroh, pleasure to meet lil' tinker's girl. I've heard rumors that she finally found someone so you were definitely the last person I'd think I'd run into here."

Korra gives him a forced smile, "Nice to meet you too." She squeezes his hand back harder than needed, getting him to raise an eyebrow. When they finally let go, Korra quickly walks back to Asami's side before smoothly slapping her ass firmly and pulling her in closer. Asami's eyes widened at that and she was actually somewhat speechless. Korra was the one who continued the conversation. "I should say the same, I never thought I'd run into Asami's…acquaintance here. She never really talks about people aside from her schoolmates."

Iroh notices some sort of tension before smiling it off. "I guess so, she tends to be pretty private about most things. I'm sure there's plenty she wants to tell you but doesn't know how."

Korra ends up pulling Asami in more possessively even though they were already hip to hip. "Oh is that so…" she eyes Asami questionably before turning to nudge her forehead against hers. "Guess we should do the honorary family meet and greet one of these days huh?"

There was something about Korra's energy that made Asami's lips thin out into a nervous smile. She was one hundred percent intrigued and turned on at the same time. This wasn't a side of Korra she normally saw after all. She ends up chuckling nervously before mustering out, "I-I guess we should…"

Leaning in close to Asami's lip, Korra never breaks eye contact before pulling back. "Anyways, we should probably get going now. I don't wanna take up your time or the restaurant's anymore…" she nods at their table, "We finished our meal not too long ago actually."

Iroh doesn't skip a beat. "Sure of course, sorry about keeping you here." He then looks at Asami, "I'll talk to you later?"

Asami finally snaps out whatever daze she was in. "Ah—yeah, I'll catch you around."

"Will do, send your father my regards for me."

She nods once. "I will."

Shortly after they paid their bills and left the restaurant, once they were inside Asami's car, Asami gave Korra one of the most smug and cockiest smiles out there. "And what was that?"

Korra looks off to the side, out the passenger window. "What was what?"

That grin never left Asami's face even if she were to try. She just tapped Korra's arm before pestering, "Inside the restaurant. Your attitude. Hello?"

Her girlfriend just scrunches her face. "That's always how I act."

"Shut up!" Asami's smile only widened and she slapped Korra's arm again. "You were jealous weren't you?"

She was quick to retort back. "Was not."

"Was too!"

"Was not!"

"Oh Korra please, you were sooo jealous! And what the heck was that? You totally slapped my ass in front of him too!" She argues back, much to her amusement.

"Did not."

"Did too!"

"Did not!"

Korra finally snaps her face at Asami with a pout. Asami just raises a teasing eyebrow knowing she would break soon enough. True to her thoughts, Korra cracked before she broke eye contact and crossed her arms with a cute pout.

"Okay. Fine. Maybe I was a little jealous."

"I knew it!" Asami giggles at the notion before kissing her cheek. "How are you so adorable?"

Rolling her eyes a little, Korra didn't want to start it again but couldn't resist. "Am not."

"Yes you are!"

"Am not!"

Laughing happily, Asami leans in to peck Korra's lips again. She repeatedly kisses her girlfriend with a smile, earning a reluctant grin from Korra in the process as well. Something about being caught red handed was embarrassing yet at the same time was not.

With her cheeks burning in embarrassment, Korra juts her lips before mumbling herself. "How did I end up dating you again?"

Obviously, Asami heard her. "Because you think I'm hot."

Korra practically scoffed. "And why are you dating me again?"

"Because I think you're sexy." She easily toots back before adding, "And cute. And great in bed." Asami playfully lists out as she climbed Korra's bicep with her fingers.

This time, Korra couldn't hold back her chuckle and grin. "Yeah yeah whatever you dork."

Asami grins back. "Love you~"

"Mmhmm, whatever. Love you too."

"Anyways," Asami leans back before starting her car, "Let's head back shall we? I think it's about time we catch up on the netflix show."

Korra put her seat buckle on. "Oh, you mean that one Bolin and Opal were pestering us about."

"Yup. That's the one. I don't know about you but I'm getting a little sick of their whining."

Laughing wholeheartedly at that, Korra couldn't agree any more. "Wanna stop by the mart for popcorn."

Asami spares her a soft grin before adding. "And—" they both said it at the same time. "—fire flakes!"

They both laughed with one of the brightest smiles out there, bright enough to light up the night sky as they drove off into the bustling city. Korra might still not understand how she started dating Asami but their relationship wasn't made up. Their friends could attest to their annoying physical display of affections and the most of the campus knew as well.

And so… they were dating.
