Item: Airship

Pairing: Kyalin

Prompt by: Yolo1882


They had finally secured everyone on board the airships and were finally headed to Zaofu to receive medical attention for those hurt in the recent Red Lotus attack. The sun had officially set and they had just crossed into the dessert, giving the people on board the feeling of relaxation, yet for Chief Lin Beifong, she was far from relaxed.

After helping the wounded onto the ship, a lot of people asked her for help regarding their personal comfort, given that it was her airship and she knew where everything was, so she was yet to check up on the one person she held closely to her heart. So she wandered down the hall containing the sleeping quarters and poked her head into each one until she came across her beloved waterbender lying in bed, with her leg propped up in a makeshift cast.

"Spirits, I was wondering what was taking you so long."

Lin smiled as she closed the door behind her and took a seat in the chair next to the bed. "Who said I was looking for you.? These are my quarters. I was hoping to take a nap."

"I'd punch you if I weren't so tired." Kya tried to sit up a little, but was unable to do so due to her position on the bed. "Hey, would you mind being my back rest for the night?"

"Of course." The earthbender climbed onto the bed and got behind her girlfriend, letting out a sigh when she felt the familiar weight press itself against her chest. "Spirits I've missed this."

"Mm. We haven't seen each other in a few weeks. Not since convergence."

"I have very fond memories of our last night together."

"I would replace them with new ones but, you know, broken leg."

Lin buried her face into the crook of Kya's neck and inhaled deeply before wrapping her hands around her waist. "I was so worried about you."

"I would tell you, you didn't need to worry but given my current situation, I don't blame you. I'm fine though, honestly. I was able to heal my scrapes and bruises, the leg will take some time to fix though. How are you and Su? That was Su out there right? It's been a while since I've seen her."

"Yeah. That's Su. Last time I saw her, she was this little kid causing havoc and mayhem everywhere she went and now she is married with five kids in her own city. That's a lot more than what I've done."

"You're not jealous are you?"

"Not at all."

"Good, cause it took some guts to ask me out, I don't think Su could have ever done that."

"Neither do I, given she is into men."

"Please, I could turn anyone."

Lin smirked as she began to pepper Kya's neck with kisses, making the injured woman in her arms moan. "You turned me so I don't doubt it."

The moaning stopped when the door opened to reveal Suyin, carrying a glass of water and a bowl of food. "Well this is something different."

Lin froze. She and Kya hadn't told anyone about their relationship and it was suddenly unveiled to the world's biggest gossip. The person who declared it's her business to know everything about the people entering her city. Spirits, she could die right now and not give a care in the world.

"Not that different." Said Kya, taking control of the situation. "I mean, we have been together for a couple of years now."

"Well it's different for me. I want to know everything. How you two got together, where your first date was, Tenzin's reaction, how long you've had feelings for each other, where you two first had se-"

Lin quickly climbed out from under her partner and brushed herself off. "Well you two can talk about that, I'm going to get myself some food seeing as how you didn't bring any for me."

Just as she was about to walk away, Kya took hold of her tank top and pulled her down for a searing kiss, ignoring Su's gagging noise as their tongues danced together. "I love you Lin and don't worry, I won't tell her everything."

Su waited for Lin to leave before taking a seat in the chair and putting the food in Kya's lap. "Please tell me that was a lie."

"Definitely. She hasn't let me tell anyone, I'm not letting this opportunity go anywhere."
