Sorry for the late update! :(

IN ASAMI'S POINT OF VIEW
Korra quickly looked away. I smiled, knowing I had made the Avatar blush. We walked arm in arm through the town until we saw Naga lying in the snow. "Naga, wake up girl. Come on, let's go home," Korra said as she let go of my arm to wake her polar bear dog up. Naga still looked dazed, but was able to manage to get stand up on all fours.
"Come on Asami, get on!" Korra said getting up on Naga. She gave me a hand, and soon enough I was on Naga. "You might want to protect your face," Korra suggested. "Why? Think I can't handle a bit of roughness once in a while?" I replied playfully. Korra laughed and said, "No I don't think that. I just don't want the harsh cold wind hitting your beautiful face." My beautiful face? Did she really just say that? I nearly fainted. Korra turned around, and once she saw me, it was her with the smirk on her face.
"Naga, go!" I wrapped my arms around Korra's stomach, and we were off. As we went higher and higher up, the colder it got. I was trembling, but surprisingly Korra wasn't. Of course. I pushed my face into her fur coat to at least get the feeling back into it. I couldn't get over the fact that she called me beautiful. Did she really mean it? Or was was she just joking around? Could that possibly mean we could be together? If I asked her if she did or didn't love me? What would she say?
After everything that happened with Mako, I just couldn't take him back. He was the cause of half the pain inside me. But soon enough I realized I was with the wrong person. Mako was nothing compared to her. The Avatar. The person I hated so much once because she wanted Mako as badly as I did. I fell in love with her. And now I'm with her.
"Are you okay?" Korra asked. "Yeah, the wind is pretty cold though," I said picking up my face from her shoulder. "I told you it'd be cold." "Yeah, yeah whatever," I replied. We finally reached her house. Korra jumped off of Naga. "My goodness it's good to finally be home!" she said stretching. "What a lovely house," I said. "Let's go inside," Korra motioned me into her home.
It beautiful. It was really different from the houses in Republic City. There was blue everywhere, and it matched Korra's eyes well. Korra took off her coat, and threw it to the side. "Want anything?" she asked. "A blanket would be nice," I said taking off my jacket. Korra went into the next room and brought a huge white blanket with the water tribe symbol sewed into it. "This should make you warm," Korra said wrapping the blanket around me. "Thank you," I said. I sat down next to the fireplace. "Here," the avatar said, and fire came out of her palms. The logs in the fireplace turned orange and the room became a lot warmer. "Thanks Korra," I said giving her a smile.
"I see your not use to the cold," Korra said. I giggled, "I've never been down at the South or up in the North. My whole life I've lived in the city." Korra sat next to me. "Well hey, you're not the only one that's been trapped in one place your whole life," the Avatar said, looking at the ground. I knew what she meant. The Order of the White Lotus never let her have any contact with the outside world when she was younger. She didn't have any friends except for Katara.
"Come here," I said, opening up my arms and the blanket. I saw Korra hesitate, but then gave in. "Okay," and she crawled over to me. I wrapped the blanket around us. I could freeze this moment. The two of us together. Cuddling. Never would I have ever thought that this would happen. But it did, and I would cherish it. "Asami?" she asked after a while. "Yes?" I replied. "Why are we doing this?" I blushed once again, not knowing if she meant that in good or bad way. "I guess it's what we think is right," I said. It was all I could think of, but it was also the truth. The Avatar looked up and stared into my eyes. Her eyes were so beautiful. All of a sudden, Korra took my face into her hands and pressed her warm lips against mine. Was I dreaming? No. The girl I'm in love with, the girl I'd spend hours of the night thinking of was kissing me.
