She put her hand up to grab the screwdriver. She rubbed the back of the other girls hand with her thumb. The shorter girl smiled at her, she could tell she was trying to hide her blush, it sent shivers up her own spine to know that she was having this kind of effect on the younger girl. She rubbed the back of her hand one last time before pulling the younger girl into her embrace, her lips found the other girls as she slid her hand behind her head tangling her fingers in her brown hair. She traced up the muscular girl's chiseled abdomen with her free hand. A warmth growing between her legs as the kiss deepened, she-

Asami awoke to the sound of her alarm. What was that dream? It wasn't right, she couldn't be having dreams about her student. Yet so much of her wanted to go back to sleep in hopes of having it continue where it left off. She closed her eyes only to hear her alarm go off again. She had to get up.

She went through her morning routine of making her coffee, having a quick bite to eat and picking the days outfit. In the midst of applying her make-up, she heard her phone go off. She picked it up to see her dad's picture filling the screen.

"Hi Dad" she answered.

"Good morning my Asami. How was your first day teaching yesterday?"

"It was great Dad! The students are great and I get along with the staff, well most of the staff."

"Asami I am glad you are enjoying yourself however I have to ask when you think you will be done with this phase you are going through? I did not push you so hard and pay for the best education available for you to go off and spend your time teaching high school kids. I need you here, learning how to take my place."

"I don't want that Dad, I want to pursue teaching. I don't want the life you picked for me."

"Asami enough! I am giving you until the end of the semester to purse this silly dream of yours before you have to come back and do what is expected of you. End of discussion." he yelled as he hung up the phone.

She slammed her phone down on the counter in frustration. Why can't he just understand that this is what I want to do, that this is what makes me happy? She continued to finish getting ready and headed for school.

Her morning classes went by without a hitch and uneventfully. Her mind was still stuck on her conversation with her father from this morning. She let out a sigh as she headed to the teacher's lounge to have lunch hoping that talking with the other teachers might distract her.

As she walked in she could hear Coach Lin talking to Mrs Su Yin, "That kid is going to go far I tell ya, she's gonna be my crowning achievement."

"Who's going to go far?" Asami asked as she walked into the room.

"Korra, 'The Avatar,' as the press calls her" the coach replied.

"Oh, I've heard the students talking about her," Asami said passively as she played coy about knowing who Korra was. "But why The Avatar?"

"She's mastered all elements of the game, she's got the stuff" Coach Lin continued.

"It is unfortunate that she will not be able to reach the potential you have imagined for her Coach" Mr Tarrlok interrupted as if to appear out of nowhere.

"And why is that?" Mrs Su Yin asked with an arched brow.

"At the rate she is going Korra will not have the proper math requirements to graduate let alone get a scholarship to the most prestigious university in the area."

"There must be something you can do, this is the most amazing opportunity an athlete can ever have!" Coach Lin urged.

"Regrettably I just don't have the time to help her catch up to where she needs to be, there is so much to be covered and I have other students to attend to. I can't put precedence of one over the other."

"Don't have the time or don't have the desire?" Coach Lin asked rhetorically under her breathe.

"What was that Coach?" Mr Tarrlok asked angrily.

Asami interrupted before the situation got anymore heated, "I could tutor her."

"You? An english teacher, tutor a student in math?" Mr Tarrlok replied almost mockingly.

"I did graduate from Southern University with a degree in engineering. You'd think that a degree from a such a prestigious university, as you put it, would surely be enough to tutor a student in high school math." she shot back at him.

His face hardened and his eyes narrowed. He gritted his teeth as he answered "I suppose you could try. But I wouldn't hold out hope, two weeks does not seem like sufficient enough time, good luck regardless." He turned and left the room, who does she think she is arguing with me in front of them? She should know her place, such a waste of a pretty face. Her usefulness here won't last if I have anything to do about it.

Asami found herself suddenly happy. She had forgotten all about the unpleasantness with her father this morning. She had an excuse to spend more time with Korra, a valid excuse that wouldn't raise suspicions or cause problems. Or so she thought.

She spent her third period class with a smile on her face. She couldn't wait to talk to Korra about the possibility of tutoring her, about spending time with her, touching her…God Asami get your mind out of the gutter, you're her teacher…She wondered how she would react to the news.

Korra found herself exhausted all day from her lack of sleep the night before. Thoughts of Miss Sato still took over her mind. Maybe she did mean to touch my hand that long. And what was with that hair flip anyways? She didn't even have english today, maybe she would find some way to focus on something other than her teacher's wonderful curves she contemplated as she walked into her third period class.

Math again…I can't believe how many times I have this class in a week, I don't even have Mako or Bolin to keep me company through it. Maybe if they were in class with me it would make it less annoying when Tarok decided to show his dislike for me…god I hate this guy. She thought to herself as she watched him scribble equations onto the board.

"What would be the value of X in this equation?" He asked the class generally, with no response. "Korra? Solve for X." It always seemed that whenever no one knew the answer she was the first one he would call upon to solve it aloud. Almost like he was purposely trying to humiliate her as he knew she very well didn't know the answer. If the smartest kids in the class weren't raising their hands to answer why would he think she would know? He is the one who grades her after all. She shrugged and shook her head signalling that she didn't know.

"Ah Korra, I hope for your sake that Miss Sato wasn't boasting about her abilities too much earlier."

"Hunh?" was all she could reply with a confused look on her face.

"You were the talk of the teacher's lounge today. After hearing of your unfortunate conundrum regarding your grades and your scholarship possibility in limbo, Miss Sato took pity upon your case and offered her help. I assured her that this was no small task but she seemed determined to try regardless," he explained with a sly grin. Almost as if he got some sort of joy out of embarrassing her in front of the whole class.

Korra's face went hard, she was never one to back down without a fight. She stood up and pointed her finger at her teacher and just as she opened her more to yell back a retort of her own the bell rang to save her from what would have probably landed her in detention. She stomped out of the class and down the hall towards Mrs Pema's office where she new she would find Miss Sato.

Asami heard a hard knock at the door and found an angry tan girl standing in the doorway when she opened it.

"Oh Korra, I was just going to send for you," the smile on her face faded when she saw the anger on the student's face, "What's wrong?"

"Tarrlok! That's whats wrong! He basically humiliated me in front go the whole class! And even worse he told you how much of a bad student I am! Now you're going to think I'm some idiot!" Korra yelled. Shit did I really just say that? Did I just admit that I care about what she thinks? "I mean, uh…not that I care what you think."

Asami had to hold back a blush when she heard Korra's confession. It sent a warmth throughout her body to know that Korra thought about her at all, especially when she was concerned with her opinion of herself.

"Korra I could never think less of you, I just want to help, if you'll let me." she reassured her as she grabbed Korra's hand.

She almost jumped at Miss Sato's touch, which she was craving so bad, to feel Miss Sato's hand on hers again. She instantly became aware of everything Miss Sato was doing, how she moved, her jasmine perfume. Her black hair that was up in a pony tail today revealing her neck line and shoulder. Korra had to fight back the urge to lean into her and press her lips to her collar bone and what she might have done next.

Korra's hand was rough and slightly calloused. Probably from so many days of lifting and playing hockey. She followed up Korra's arm with her eyes until they fell upon her broad shoulders leading up to her strong jawline, finally locking eyes with Korra's deep blue ones. She paused for what seemed like forever looking into them, but what she hoped was only seconds after finally breaking the silence, "I'd like to help you, if you'd let me," she reiterated.

"I…uh…yeah I could definitely use the help as you already know." Korra said letting a blush creep onto her face. Not only is this woman beautiful, but she's kind and considerate too, I'm screwed…

Asami smiled at the sight of it, "Good, I'll make it fun, don't you worry."

She's gonna make it fun….I think I like the sound of that…Korra shook her head out of the gutter. "So after school today? I could come by after practice."

"Sounds excellent, we can meet here. Bring your text book."

"Thank you Miss Sato!" Korra said as she nodded and smiled, running out the door before any other inappropriate thoughts came into her mind. She couldn't help but smile to herself as she walked down the hall to her last class.

"I know what you're smiling about!" Bolin teased as he ran into Korra in the hall.

"I have no idea what you're talking about Bo."

"Don't even try that Korra, the whole school knows about what that jerk Tarrlok said in class."

"They do?" Korra replied with tinge of worry in her voice.

"Don't even sweat it bud, the whole school is on you're side, we all know how Mr Tarrlok can be. Besides that's not the news I'm interested in, how stoked are you to get to have some one on one time with the sexy Miss Sato." He asked with a cheesy smile while he moved his eyebrows up and down.

"Uh…well you know…it's fine. I'm happy to get help from anyone honestly."

"Yeah, yeah Korra. You can't lie to me, I see right through you. How distracted you get when you watch her teach. And if you ask me, I think she looks the same way at you when she asks you anything in class."

"Wait what!? You really think so Bo!?" Korra quickly replied excitedly.

"I knew it! You do like her!"

She punched her friend in the arm, "Ass."

"Seriously though dude, I've never seen you get this worked up over a girl."

"You're seeing things bud." Korra replied trying to save face. "We're having our first, normal, nothing out of the ordinary, tutorial tonight after practice."

"Ooooo, want me to ask Mako for some of his pick up lines?"

"Yeah no, even if I was into her, I wouldn't be caught dead using those lines on anyone, let alone her."

"Like I said, you can't lie to me. Just make sure she doesn't schedule any sexy secret tutorial meetings this weekend, it's my party remember!?"

"Don't you worry Bo, I wouldn't miss that. You and Mako's parties are always the best!"

"Good!" he got out just before the bell. "I'll catch you later Korra!"

Korra turned to go into her last class of the day. God I can't wait for tonight…
