Dawning Sun
By SMYGO4EVA

Everything was quiet at the Sato estate, just as it should be.

Korra was used to the hustle and bustle of Republic City at this point. But with everything that happened, all the chaos and turmoil, inside and out, some quiet was what she needed.

She knew that it was what Asami needed as well.

The birds sung their little song outside the open window. The sun was high in the bright sky, and Korra felt the cool spring air waft through the bedroom. She sat back in the bed, arching her back in a stretch, and she felt a hand settle on her hip.

"It's too early," Korra groaned, rubbing her eyes, looking down to see Asami smiling sleepily at her. She rose from the warm covers and brushed back her long black hair.

"You still think the morning is evil?" Asami asked, pressing her lips against Korra's cheek, her hand wandering to thread her fingers through the Avatar's.

Korra shook her head, smiling right back at Asami. "Not when you're here."

"You know," Korra began, the idea of waking up early suddenly becoming more better by the minute, "We can get a head start on training, if you want."

Asami smiled. "That's…actually a good idea. Breakfast first."

"Deal!"

They both chuckled together, fingers intertwined, warmth through and through; their lips pressed against each other's. They knew it was going to be a good day.
