So thank you and thanks to all who have taken the time to read this story. Means a lot.
PS: Holidays are coming up, so I won't be able to post as fast or as much as I'd like to but I'll try my best to not keep you all waiting to long.
Not seeing Asami for a few days was killing Korra. She just kept staring at Asami's number which Mako took notice of. "Why don't you just call her?" he asked as he began to clean his gun.
Korra sighed as she sat down on the couch with a plop. "I can't. Beifong told me to wait three days," she whined as she slumped over on the arm of the couch.
Shaking his head, Mako began to shine out outside of the barrel, "Three days? Wow. She would have already forgotten about you by then," he said sarcastically.
Korra sat up quickly with worried eyes. "You think so?" she asked with panic in her voice. Mako wasn't easily amused but the way Korra reacted was priceless.
"Yeah..." he said placing his gun down on the coffee table. "If a girl takes your phone and gives you her number. That's a sign to call."
Korra was confused and it showed on her face. "But Beifong told me if I called her right away it would seem desperate," she holding on to her phone a bit tightly.
Mako gave off a deadpan expression toward his partner. "But you are desperate," he said tossing the cloth on the table. "Plus this is the Captain giving you advice. When have you ever seen her out with anyone?" he asked trying to prove a point.
"Never," she uttered underneath her breath. "So you think I should call her?"
Mako sat up further in his seat as he began to place his gun back together. "Nope you're way past the calling part. I think you should show up at her place. You have her address don't you?" he asked as Korra looked at her phone.
"Yeah but showing up isn't that a little out there?" she asked now recalling her never seeing Mako with anyone either.
Mako thought on it for a bit and said, "yeah but if you call her it will just be an awkward situation. plus you're more easier to talk to in person," while looking back down at his gun.
Korra sat back on the couch thinking on his words glancing at the phones screen.
"Korra," he said getting her attention again. "She's waiting for you. Hearing your voice isn't gonna cut it. She's gonna want to see you just as much as you want to see her."
Her expression soften up a bit thinking maybe Asami had the same feeling she had about her. "Okay, I'll do it," she said getting up to go get ready.
Leaving her apartment, Korra drove towards Asami's place with Mako's newly painted car she had paid for just not in a color he approved of. She had waited outside with that nervous feeling in her stomach. It felt like it was twisting in knots. She knows she used the bathroom before she left so it couldn't have been that.
"Just go up to her door and knock. Just knock that's all you have to do," she said to herself. Taking one huge deep breath she got out of the car closing the door shut. She walked up to the side walk and then to the steps leading up towards the house. She approached the front door raising her fist up. She was about to knock only for her stomach to tighten again.
Lowering her hand, she backed up only to turn around heading down the steps, soon as she did she heard a noise behind her. Turning around she had one foot down on the step and the other one up on the floor board as if she wasn't about to leave.
Asami had came out of her house with her book bag hanging off one shoulder and a few books in hand. She was locking her door, only to turn around to see Korra on her porch. She was a bit taken back seeing how she had her ear buds in her ears taking one out. "Hey..." she said with a bit of surprise in her voice.
Korra stood there looking at Asami as if she couldn't breathe. "Hey..." she said raising her hand up in a small wave.
"I... wasn't expecting anyone... today?" she said some what questioning Korra randomly showing up.
Wanting to face palm herself, Korra sighed deeply now knowing Mako was wrong. "Sorry I didn't mean-" she started only to be cut off.
"No I'm... I'm glad you're here," she said smiling as she walked up toward Korra stopping in front of her. "I was just about to head to work though..." she said looking down the street then back to Korra.
Korra looked down the street when Asami did then back to her. "Well I could see you later maybe? if you're not busy," she asked hoping she wasn't.
Asami thought on it and said, "I'm pretty booked for today..." while raising the books she had in her hand.
The hope Korra had on her face sunk low until Asami continued. "But you're welcome to come along... if you'd like?" she offered as she bit down on her lip eager for Korra to say yes.
"Of course!" she said with excitement only to clear her throat and pat her chest lightly. "I mean yeah... sure," she said with a shrug of her shoulders trying to dial it back a bit.
Asami giggled at Korra's actions and said, "alright just... hold on for one second," while backing up and turning back towards her front door. Opening it up, Asami when inside for a few minutes. She soon came back out locking it up again with the bag she had from the previous night. "You're clothes I kind of made you strip out of. Sorry," she said as she handed Korra the bag.
Unzipping it, Korra saw her pants, shirt and hoody with her eyes gazing back up to Asami's. "Thanks."
"No problem. I washed them too... just so you know," she said as she walked down the stairs. Korra followed right behind her only to walk towards her car to place her bag in the trunk of it. Asami stood on the side walk waiting for Korra.
As she walked up beside her again, Korra was confused as to where she was going. "You're not gonna drive?" she asked since she read in her file she worked at a hotel.
Asami shook her head no as she walked across the street. "No its not to far from here," she said holding her books close to her chest.
As they walked, Korra watched as Asami stopped at a house a few blocks down. Knocking on the door, Asami waited for someone to answer. A woman opened the door with a bright smile on her face, "Oh thank the spirits you're here," she said relieved as she hugged Asami.
Smiling bright, Asami hugged her back before entering the house. Korra was hesitant to come inside only for Asami to stop by the front door. "Come on," she said holding her hand out to Korra.
Once she took Asami's hand, Korra was led inside the house hearing the screams and laughter of children coming from the living room.
"Who's you're friend?" the woman asked with a bright smile as she was wiping flour off her face.
Asami placed a hand on Korra's shoulder as she began to make introductions. "Pema this is Korra, Korra Pema," she said only to hear a crashing sound.
"It's nice to meet you Korra," she said taking her hand lightly and shaking it. "MEELO!" she shouted nearly in the same sentence. "Sorry about that," she said as she walked past the girls and into the living room.
Asami followed right behind placing her books on a near by table in a usual spot along with her book bag. A young girl came up from behind taking the first book in her hand. "Advanced Auto Mechanics?" she asked causing Asami turn around and smile.
"Hi Jinora," she said giving her a small hug.
Jinora placed the book down hugging Asami back. "Hi, who's your friend?" she asked looking over to Korra.
"This is Korra," Asami said plainly as Pema was reeling Meelo in. She made him sit on the couch. She rubbed her stomach since Rohan was kicking pretty bad today.
Jinora held her hand out to Korra and said, "nice to meet you," she said as Korra took her hand to shake. Her sister interrupted as she came up behind Korra tugging at sleeve.
"Hi!" she said as if she was full of sugar.
Korra smiled at both girls and said, "Hello," as she shook Jinora's hand letting it go right after knowing now that Asami was here to babysit. She hadn't expected anything like this considering the last few nights they spent together was avoiding cops and security detail.
Pema gathered her bags and headed towards the door. "Call me if you need anything Asami. I'll be back later on tonight," she said as Asami got up to help Pema with her bags.
"I will," she said taking the bags off of Pema's shoulders and helping her towards the car leaving Korra with the kids.
Meelo came up behind Korra standing on the coffee table narrowing his eyes. "Who might you be?" he pointed with a finger he took out of his nose.
"Her name is Korra!" Ikki shouted at her brother.
He then pointed his boogered finger at her and said, "I didn't ask you. I asked the stranger," while directing his eyes back towards her.
Jinora sat down reading a few pages of Asami's book. "Get down before you fall," she said not even looking at her brother.
"I will once this stranger presents herself," he said coming off defensive.
Korra gave a half a smile and said, "my name is Korra. Its nice to meet you..." while trying to remember his name.
The young boy jumped down off the table and stuck his hand out for her to take. "Meelo at you're service," he said with a bright smile.
Korra took his wrist and lightly shook it. "Its nice to meet you Meelo," she said as Asami came back inside.
"So you guys had breakfast already or what?," she asked as Ikki stepped in front of her shaking her head yes. "I see," she said brushing some of Ikki's hair back away from her bangs.
Meelo jumps toward the other side of Asami with a huge smile on his face. "Can we do something fun today please!" he asks with Ikki joining in on the pleasing part. Jinora looked up from the book she had waiting to see what Asami would say.
Taking her time to respond, Asami shrugged her shoulders and said, "I don't know..." while moving towards the couch. She picked up a toy and sat it down on the coffee table. "I mean I haven't even seen your report cards yet," she said causing all three kids look at each other. Jinora sat the book down and race toward the steps along with Meelo and Ikki.
"I'll get it!" the two youngest said at once.
Asami laugh as she took a seat on the couch. She looked over to Korra who was standing across from her looking around. She patted a seat next to her on the couch for Korra to take.
Hearing the patted sound, Korra looked up and saw that Asami wanted her to sit next to her. She walked over stepping over toy after toy before taking a seat next to her. "This is... not what I expected, "Korra admitted only to look away from Asami not trying to be insulting.
Asami notice and raised her hand to Korra's cheek brushing a strain of her hair behind her ear. "It can't all be fast cars and hot pursuits. Sometimes you just need a day to relax and chill," she said placing her hand back on her shoulder. She leaned over toward Korra's ear and said, "you'll see," while her hot breath brush up against it.
Korra felt a shiver down her spine as the kids stomps brought her back to reality. Asami's hand fell back on her lap as all three stood in front of her with Meelo hold his up first.
"Ahh lets see in order shall we. Jinora," she asked as Meelo put his hand down in disappointment. Asami looked at Jinora's grades and smiled brightly. "As to be expected, all A pluses," she stated handing Jinora back her card as pride was written all on her face. "Ikki?" she asked with Ikki handing over hers.
Meelo sighed again out of annoyance sitting down on the coffee table not wanting to wait anymore. "A few A's mostly B's one C," she said looking over at Ikki with the report card covering her mouth. She placed it down on her lap showing off her smile. "Great job," she said handing it back to her.
Asami saw Meelo holding his in his hand not making eye contact with them. She placed her hand on his head rubbing his hair. "Can I see please?" she asked sweetly with his eyes shift up toward hers. He soften up handing his over as well. She looked over it and remained quiet most of the time. He grew with anticipation. "This is..." she said as he held his breath wanting to know badly. "Fantastic!" she said handing it over to him.
He jumped up for joy and said, "HA!" pointing at Ikki then Jinora. "I got Fantastic all you got was Great Job and Expected," while sticking his tongue out at both girls.
Ikki snatched his report card away from him, "All you got were C's, how is that fantastic?" she asked looking to Asami.
Taking it back, Asami held it up for all of them to see. "Because last time he had D's which means he tried his best and that's always something to be proud of," she said rubbing underneath his chin tickling him into a smile. "And for such good grades I think you all deserve a treat," she said placing Meelo's on to the coffee table.
All three started to shout out exactly what they wanted. Asami held her hands up to get there attention. "Slow down. Slow down. One at a time. Meelo?" she asked with him going first this time.
"I want a Veggie Pizza!" he said as Ikki step in front of him.
She grasped her hands together and said, "I wanna go to the arcade!" while jumping up and down slightly.
Asami looked over at Jinora and tapped her on her arm. "What do you want to do?" she asked as Jinora pondered on it.
"I did want to go to the beach," she said with the other two chanting for the beach.
Asami stood up taking her phone out of her back pocket, "let me see what I can do," she said stepping over Korra's feet heading towards the kitchen. Making a phone call to Pema to get permission on all these things. Getting the okay Asami soon hung up the phone and came back into the living room.
The kids along with Korra looked over to Asami waiting for an answer. "Looks like we're going on a field trip," she said looking over at Korra as the kids cheered.
Getting the kids ready was the easy part. Asami just needed to get a bathing suit for herself and Korra before they could leave. Asami led the kids back to her house with Meelo jumping right on her couch once inside. "I don't think you really want that pizza,"she said which caused him to stop.
"I do!" he said laying back on it in defeat.
Asami smiled as she walked towards the steps once Korra closed the front door. "Wait here, while I go get my swimsuit," she told the kids as she began to walk up the steps. Korra waited by the door which made Asami stop moving. "Are you coming?" she asked causing Korra look up to her pointing at her own chest.
"Me?" she asked with surprise in her voice. Asami giggle saying 'yes' waving at her to come on. Korra looked back at the kids before walking towards the steps and up them following Asami's path.
Asami opened the door to her room waiting for Korra. Once Korra walked inside, Asami closed the door behind her. "So... I know what I'm going to wear," she started as she when over to her dresser draw after putting her books and bag down. "But... its all about what you're going to wear," she said looking over her shoulder at Korra.
Korra shook her head as she looked around the room. "I don't need a suit I can just wear what I have on," she said placing her hands in her pockets.
Turning around, Asami looked at Korra with an 'oh please' expression without saying it. "You're really going to wear sweats to the beach?" she said walking up to Korra and stopping right in front of her.
Not thinking about it that way, Korra scratched the side of her temple. "I could, I mean-" she said only to be cut off.
"Its going to be extremely hot out there,"she pointed out as she walked back to her dresser. "So if you start to sweat in places you don't want-" she began to say only for Korra to cut her off.
Korra's expression turned to one of panic to where Asami was going with this. "No no. Ah... just show me what you have," she asked walking up behind Asami.
Standing in front of her dresser, a deviously smirked appeared on Asami's cherry red lips. She licked them slightly as she thought of Korra's body drenched in sweat but from- "Okay," she said trying to focus on what they were really up there for. She took out a few bathing suits for Korra to try on. After handing it to her, she pointed toward her bathroom with in her room having her take a seat on the bed.
Korra took them in hand. Taking a deep breath, she walked into the bathroom shutting the door. There were mostly two pieces since the one pieces would be two big in length but small in upper area. Placing the first one on, it was an orange and yellowish two tone blend that was in a ripping design. Placing it on, the bottom piece was fine but the top she couldn't quite tie. Making an effort as she looked in the mirror her breast were nearly falling out from underneath the bottom and once she pushed them up they were nearly coming out the top.
Asami waited in her room on the bed, hearing a knock on the door. "Come in," she said seeing Jinora coming in. "Hey girlie," she said patting the bed.
Jinora came up taking a seat next to her. "Is Kai coming?" she asked hoping he would.
Asami shook her head no as she began to brush Jinora's hair. "No, he's with Skoochy and his Dad for today," she said as Jinora's gaze drop from hers.
"Oh..." she said lowly as Asami sat up.
She leaned toward Jinora nudging her shoulder lightly, "but he will be having his birthday party tomorrow. so you will definitely see him then," she said trying to lighten up the mood.
Jinora's expression soften up a bit as she looked back towards Asami. "Thanks," she said giving her a small side hug before getting up and leaving the room.
Asami got up and closed the door behind her hearing a thud in the bathroom. Looking over towards the door, she walked over and knocked on it. "Do you need some help?" she asked hearing Korra shout that she had it.
"No no! I got it," she said trying her best to get the next piece on but it was becoming a struggle.
Asami shrugged her shoulders and walked back to the bed plopping down on it. She bounced some what before resting down. She began to hum a song to herself as she took a magazine off her dresser looking up at it.
Before long, Korra came out with a blue and white stripped two piece that was just as tight but managed to get on. Asami looked up for a second, only to sit up the next seeing Korra in that skin tight bikini that looked like it was about to pop. She could see Korra's abs and her toned body with in it causing her jaw slightly gaped open from aw. "Spirits be damned..." she uttered with Korra looking up at her confused.
"What?" she said as Asami looked up at her with the same confused expression on her face saying it was nothing.
Asami then saw how hard it was for Korra to breath. She raised her hand up making her index finger twirl. "Turn around," she asked with a bit of a demand with Korra doing so. She could see how tight it was from the back and the messy knot Korra had made for the top piece. Her eyes traveled down toward Korra's ass making her bite her bottom lip. "Mmm," she said subconsciously.
Korra turned back around as Asami began to stare at her just a bit. "Asami?" she said getting the other girls attention.
"Yeah..." she said raising back up to Korra's. "That's a..." she said with a giggle afterwards. "That's not gonna do. You could just wear some shorts and a shirt," while pointing over to the chair she had left them in.
Looking over there, Korra had saw the clothes taking them in her hand. "You had these there the whole time?" she asked as Asami nodded.
"Yep but... its not proper beach wear," she said slyly with a smug look on her face as she shifted over in the bed. She laid back with her elbows holding her up for support.
Korra took the clothes with a small frown on her face, "well you could have said something," she uttered as she closed the door to the bathroom.
Asami rolled her eyes with a light chuckle, "wheres the fun in that?" she said taking the magazine again going over it.
Once Korra was done, both girls came down stairs dressed in their normal clothes with their bathing suits underneath.
"It took you forever!" Meelo exclaimed as he raced toward the door. Asami took his bag off the couch as Jinora opened up the front door.
As they all got down the stairs, Asami locked her front door with Korra waiting for her. "So you taking your car?" she asked as Asami shake her head no.
"I was hoping we could take yours? Mines is a lil' unsafe," she said since it wasn't the type to take kids around in. "Hope that's okay," she asked wondering if Korra would mind.
Korra was surprised but didn't let it show instead she smiled. "Sure," she said while walking down the steps and up to her car. She opened up the back seat with the kids going inside. Closing the door, Korra walked around the drivers side opening it up and getting in. She saw Asami get into the passenger side as she placed her key in the ignition.
Before she could turn the car on Asami placed her hand on Korra's to stop her. Asami looked behind her seat over at the kids. "Seat belts," she said causing Ikki and Meelo put theirs on since Jinora already had placed hers on. She winked over at Jinora and said, "good girl," before letting Korra's hand go.
Korra turned on the car driving off towards the beach. It was about an hour or so away. She soon pulled up to a parking spot. On the board walk there were plenty of places to eat as well as an arcade store. They would be able to do all three things the kids wanted to do.
Asami took off her seat belt once Korra stopped the car. She pulled the back of Korra's seat as well as her own to move further into the back as she looked at the kids. "Ground Rules," she began as Korra look over to her only to see her ass was by her face. She leaned her head near the window as to not get to close. Though that didn't stop her from taking small peeks.
"Oh Oh Oh!" Ikki said raising her hand. Asami pointed at Ikki to let her speak, "don't run off. always go to the bathroom with someone you know and..." she said forgetting the last part.
Meelo raised his hand and Asami pointed so he could speak. "And never ever talk to strangers!" he shouted with a bright smile fulled of confidence.
"Right, now since we are here together. You will stick with me and Korra and if someone and I mean anyone," she said with a serious tone at the end. "Bothers any one of you. Tell me or her. Got it," she said with them all agreeing to her terms. "Good," she said turning back around in her seat with Korra looking forward. "Sorry about that," she said to Korra before opening her side door getting out.
Getting out of the car, the gang got changed into the booths into their swim clothes. Korra and the kids were already done with Asami coming out last. She wore a red two piece bikini with a white circle pattern on it. Korra was speechless at the sight of Asami. Her mouth slightly open only for Meelo to interrupt her daze.
"Come on Korra!" he pulled at her hand to lead her toward the beach. Korra ran with him as Ikki ran up beside her. Jinora walked beside Asami chatting about what she learned in class about the waves.
Asami spread a blanket on to the a spot on the beach placing the bags she was carrying on it so the wind wouldn't blow it away. It was still quite early out. Korra had took the initiative to order an umbrella with Meelo so they could have some shade.
As Asami laid down on the blanket with Jinora taking out her book to write some things down for her assignment. Three guys came up blocking Asami's view of the sun. "Hey pretty lady... you by yourself?" one asked as he had his hands on his hips. Asami had her shades on, only for her to tilt her head down for them to slid down the bridge of her nose for her to show the annoyed expression that took over her face.
Korra and Meelo were walking back only to slow up when she saw some guys surrounding Asami. "Clearly I'm not. So move along. You're blocking my sun," she said pushing her shades back up as she rested on her elbows.
The two others behind the main one laughed as the first one in orange trunks speak up again. "Oh come on baby," he said as he bend down placing his hand on her knee.
Korra stuck the umbrella in the sand hard next to Asami getting the guys attention.
Soon as he had his eyes on Korra, Asami took his hand off her knee and twisted it. "I said," she started as he began to cry out in agony. "I wasn't alone," while nearly breaking his hand as she bend it the wrong way.
"Okay okay, shit!" he shouted in pain only for her to release him. He got up shoving his friends out of the way. "Lets go. Crazy... chicks..." he mumbled as Meelo jumped in front of Asami saying 'they better run'.
Asami laid back down in the same position as before tilting her head back with her shades brushing through her hair. She could clearly see the look on Korra's face as she was staring holes into the three bozos direction. "Thanks," she said causing Korra look down at her.
"For what?" she said as she was curious to what Asami meant. She clearly didn't do anything. Seeing Asami handle herself was pretty intimidating yet impressive. The only thing Korra wish she could have done was stuck up for her.
Asami smiled up at the blue eyed goddess and said, "the umbrella. I'm kind of getting toasty," while pulling her shades back down on her face looking back at the waves.
Korra smiled to herself as she opened the umbrella up. "Your welcome," she said taking a seat beside her. "But I thought those guys were blocking your sun?" she pointed out wondering if Asami was trying to get a tan or get rid of them.
Asami's shades slid down the bridge of her nose again as she turned her attention to Korra. "They weren't but I didn't come here for them," she said turning on her side. She placed her hand on Korra's before moving it to point at the kids. "I came here for them."
Understanding, Korra looked around smiling seeing Ikki building a sand castle with her brother as Jinora was looking out at the ocean. Korra soon stood up and stretched a bit, "well you all can stay on the beach if you want. I'm going in the water," she said pulling off her shirt exposing her black sports bra.
Asami watched Korra her taking off her shades and place it inside her bag. Korra tossed her shirt down in the spot she sat in before tapping Meelo on the shoulder. "You're it!" she said running towards the water. Meelo ran behind her kicking up sand having Ikki shout 'hey!' getting up as well.
Getting up herself, Asami looked over at Jinora and held her hand out. "Come on its gonna be fun. I promise you'll have more to write about if you experience it first hand," she said as Jinora stared at her hand. She then looked to Asami closing her book saying 'okay'.
Running over toward the rest of them who were playing in the water, Asami jumped in picking up Ikki. The young girl felt as if she was floating as the waves kept coming in. Meelo was on Korra's shoulders as Jinora had Korra's hands.
They were all having fun, enjoying the water. Meelo was trying to swim through the waves as Jinora was moving closer to feel the water around her waist. Ikki was jumping up and down in it while Asami watched them not noticing Korra behind her.
Korra picked her up by her waist lifting her off her feet. "No!" she shouted feeling her body crash into the water. Korra laughed as Asami got up and jump on her shoulders pushing her back in the water herself. Meelo then jumped in a long with Ikki and Jinora.
As the sun set and all of them were dry and out of the water. Korra took the kids to the rest rooms as Asami was placing their things in the car as she got dressed. She began to text Pema to give an update on where the kids were and how they were doing. She could see Korra coming up to her out of the corner of her eyes with Jinora and Ikki at her sides.
Looking up she could see Meelo on her shoulders. "Where tooo next!" he shouted as he pointed to the sky.
Asami chuckled at Meelo as she took 20 yuans out of her pocket. "Arcade,"she said handing Jinora the money. The girls began to run off causing Asami to yell, "slow down!" as Meelo was climbing down Korra's back to run after his sisters.
She looked over at Korra and smiled to herself before looking at the board walk floor. "Thanks for... coming," she said lowly with Korra looking at her now. "Not a lot of people would enjoy this kind of thing or even offer to go..."
Korra stopped at the doors of the arcade opening it up for Asami. "Its my pleasure," she said with a small smile. Asami looked up to her giving her one back as well.
Walking inside, the girls met up with the kids seeing them getting their tokens. Asami let Jinora issue it out fairly with them all going off to corners of the game room to machines they wanted to play. Asami took out another 20 placing it into the machine splitting the tokens with Korra. "They shouldn't have all the fun," she said to Korra as she placed the tokens into her hand. She looked up at her with a wink before walking off to place some of the games herself.
"I'm gonna win that!" Korra pointed to the baby plush bison.
Asami laughed and said, "you're gonna win that?" as Korra nodded. "What about that? Its much cuter," she said pointing at a polar bear plush dog.
Korra raised a brow and looked over at Asami amused, "that looks just like my dog Naga," she said as Asami looked over at her.
"No," she said in a disbelief tone of voice.
Korra nodded her head and said, "yeah it does and if I bring that thing home she will think she has been replaced," while as Asami leaned on the counter.
"Really?" she questioned.
Korra look over at Meelo who was taking his tickets out of the machine and back to Asami. "Yeah, she freaked out when she looked in the mirror at herself. Barking and caring on. I don't want to go through that again," she said with a laugh which made Asami smile brightly at her.
Both girls were playing games back to back mostly handing off their tickets to Ikki and Meelo who wanted it. They had mainly played the games with two players. Korra and Asami both stood behind the kids as they were on the racing games pointing and giving directions. "Oh no move move move move move!" Korra shouted as Meelo listened doing exactly that.
Asami laughed and whispered into Ikki's ear. She looked over at her brother and told him she would destroy him. Asami looked over at Korra with a smug look as Korra chuckled pushing her in her arm.
They all move on to the dancing machine with the kids play on it. Meelo was mainly jumping up and down as Ikki was learning the steps to it. Jinora was counting all their tickets sipping on her slushy Korra had paid for.
Taking a break, they all when toward the pizzarea ordering a large Veggie Pizza Meelo had been craving. Soon as it came over, he was drooling from his seat. Korra laughed rubbing the top of Meelo's hair.
As they ate, Korra had sauce on the corner of her mouth. Asami wiped it off with her finger placing it in her mouth to taste it. She then saw sauce on Meelos mouth only to take a napkin wiping it off causing him laugh. Korra notice the difference as she placed her finger tips on the corner of her mouth.
Leaving the place, the kids took their prizes with Korra handing Asami hers.
Taking it in her hand, Asami smiled and said, "plush polar bear dog?" not knowing Korra had won the tickets for it.
"Yeah," she said hoping she liked it.
Asami smiled looking down at it holding it close to her chest. "Thanks," she said looking over at Korra. "What should I name it?" she asked as they walked next to each other.
Korra wasn't sure and said, "whatever comes to mind," while keeping her eyes on the kids in front of them.
"Mmm how about..." she said thinking on it looking up at the stars in the sky. "Korra Jr." while looking back at Korra smugly.
Shaking her head, Korra looked at Asami and said, "nooo no no no," while waving it off.
"Yes I think thats purrfect," she cooed as her shoulder brushed up against Korra's.
Korra was slightly embarrassed as she shook her head no.
Asami noticed and slid her hand into Korra's squeezing it tightly. "Come on, I have to put the kids and Korra jr. to bed," she joked releasing Korra's hand as they walked up to Korra's car.
Korra couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation when Asami touched her hand. She smiled some what walking up to the drivers side unlocking the doors so the kids could get in. "You're not really gonna call it Korra Jr. are you?" she asked before getting in the car.
Asami held the door open for the kids to get in looking over at Korra as she spoke. "Umm... yeah," she said with a serious expression before smirking as she got in the car herself.
Shaking her head, Korra got into the car as well closing her side door right behind her. Asami sat up just like before pulling her self towards the back seat towards the kids. "Seatbelts we got it..." Meelo said in a sleepy voice placing his on. Asami just smiled and sat back down placing hers on as well.
As Korra drove them back, Asami had called Pema to let them know that she was taking them back home. Pema wasn't going to be home for two more hours. It was already around 8pm.
"Well I still have two hours," she said to Korra as she began to park infront of Pema's house. "You wanna stick around a bit longer?" she asked as she took off her seatbelt.
Before Korra could answer, Meelo took off his selt belt and sat up in between the driver and passenger seat. "Please Korra! We could watch a mover about dragons!" he shouted with excitement fighting off sleep.
Asami looked back at him puzzled as Korra answered. "Yes," she said as Asami turned to look at her with a small smile.
Once they were all out of the car, Asami opened the front door to their house. The kids ran into the house with Korra placing their bags down by the door. "Go change and then we can watch the mover," Asami said as they all race upstairs to do so.
Korra walked over towards the couch taking a seat.
Asami began to pick up a few things they had left earlier down stairs. When she was done she walked into the kitchen to throw the trash away. She then took out some popcorn and began to place it into the microwave. She walked back out passing the couch with Korra watching her. "I'll be right back," she said as she walked upstairs to make sure the kids washed up and put on their pajamas.
Korra sat on the couch waiting as Meelo was the first to race back downstairs with his little pajama set on. He plopped down next to Korra holding up a Dragons mover he wanted to see. "Can you put it in the machine?" he asked as Korra took it in her hand.
"Sure kid," she said getting up and placing it inside. She turned on the TV causing the home entertainment system blast. She grabbed the remote turning it down to an appropriate level.
Asami could hear it downstairs. Ikki complained they were watching it without them. "No they're just getting the mover ready for us okay," she said as the popcorn stopped.
Walking into the kitchen, Korra got a bowl from the cabinet placing the popcorn inside. She placed it down on the coffee table and began to pick a few things up straighten up the living room as Asami was busy with the girls. Meelo began to assist Korra helping her put things back in his place that he messed up earlier.
Asami was going to do all that once the kids were asleep. To her surprise, it was already done as she came downstairs with the girls. She looked to Korra who glanced up at her from the couch with Meelo. "Come on the mover is starting!" he said with Ikki sitting at the far right in by the kitchen.
Korra sat between Meelo and Ikki and Asami sat between Meelo and Jinora. The mover began with the introductions. Meelo got up and turned off the lights then raced back toward his seat taking the popcorn in his hand.
After an hour and a half, they all fell asleep with the mover going to the credits. Asami woke up with heavy lids. She turned her head to the side, seeing she was leaning her forehead up against a sleeping Korra's.
Moving back slowly, she saw the kids were already passed out. Jinora was sleeping with her head resting in her palm as her elbow was held up by the arm rest. Meelo and Ikki were laying on Korra's arms knocked out as well. Asami began to stretch but not to much where she would wake them. She moved silently off the couch taking the bowl out of Meelo's hands that was about to fall on the floor.
Placing it on the coffee table, she began to tap Korra's shoulder lightly not to disturb her. She wasn't quite sure how to wake her so she placed her index finger underneath her chin beginning to tickle it.
Korra was drooling just a bit from the corner of her mouth. She began to laugh a bit in her sleep saying, "stop Asami... that tickles," causing Asami wonder if Korra was half asleep. Brushing her index finger lightly by Korra's ear had woken her up peaceful. Once her eyes opened, Korra was about to jump but instead felt two small heavy bodies laying against her.
Asami pointed at both of them and then upstairs. "Help me?" she asked in a whisper. Korra wiped the corner of her mouth before nodding that she would. "Thanks," she said with a smile as she walked over to Jinora. Picking the young girl up, Asami held her over her shoulder as she began to walk up the stairs holding on the banister.
Korra carrying both Ikki and Meelo on both sides of her arms up the stairs balancing them without support. Bringing them to their room, Asami placed Jinora in her bed pulling the covers over her. She then pointed over to Ikki and Meelo's bunk bed towards the window. Korra handed Ikki off to Asami placing her on the bottom. As Korra when to place Meelo on the top bunk, he woke up saying. "No!" with the girls opening their tired eyes. "I don't want to go to sleep without a story," he said still fighting sleep.
Asami held her head down in defeat before raising it back up with a heavy sigh. "Meelo you need to sleep," she said as he shook his head no. Ikki sat up some and asked to hear a story as well. "You all just seen a mover that should be enough storytelling for one night."
"Story! Story! Story!" Ikki cheered with Meelo sitting up more in the process.
He rubbed his eyes and sniffed his little nose looking over to Asami with tired eyes. "Can you please tell us one about Grandpa?"
"You heard this story before," she said as Meelo poked his bottom lip out with a pout.
Ikki pulled the covers up and folded her arms, "I want to hear the story too," she whined with a sad expression.
Asami shook her head as she took a seat in Jinora's computer chair. "Your dad has told you this story a hundred times-" she started til Meelo interrupted.
"But he doesn't tell it like you! Please!" he asked with Ikki joining in on the please part.
Jinora sat up in her bed and said, "I would like to hear the perspective from someone else on Grandpa," while pulling the covers up to her legs. "Like why do they called him Airscoots McFly?"
"Wait wait wait..." Korra said looking at all of them with confused eyes. "Your grandpa was thee Airscoots McFly?" she asked as Jinora nodded in response. "Oh we have to hear this story now," she said turning toward Asami with bright eyes. Asami looked over as Korra sat in a beanie bag chair in the corner by the bunkbed.
"Come on Sami please!" the kids said with Korra joining in.
She smiled brightly at Asami and said, "Yeah Sami Please!" while just as excited as the kids.
Asami sighed heavily as she looked over at Korra with her lids lowered. "Fine," she said giving in. The room filled with 'yeses' causing Asami to shake her head. "Since you all are ganging up on me. I will," she said clearing her throat.
"This is the story of Airscoots Mcfly. No one really knows why. They called him Airscoots McFly except 4 others as well as I," she began with them all on the edge of their seats.
As the story ended, the kids fell asleep with Asami tucking them in. Korra placed Jinora's books neatly on her desk as Asami when to turn out the light. She walked out into the hall with Korra walking out with her leaving the door cracked. Both came down the stairs with Asami walking over to the TV. She bend down to take the mover out placing it back into its case.
Korra came up behind her watching as Asami stood up quickly placing the case back on the self. She turned to Korra and said, "I will get you back for that lil' gang up," while smiling as she walked past her to get the bags by the door.
"Well I think you deserved it after that Korra Jr. stunt," she said leaning up against the wall with her hands in her pockets.
Asami grabbed the bags turning around to face Korra. Coming up to her, Asami got close to her breathing space except this time Korra didn't make a move. She stood her ground with Asami leaning in even further almost near her lips. "You think so?" she asked as Korra nodded her head yes. Asami glanced at Korra's lips then back to her eyes with Korra doing the same to her.
As they inched closer to each other, the front door opened startling them with Pema sighing loudly. "Man its been a long day," she said exhausted. Asami moved back as Korra stood up straight with her arms folded looking toward the floor. "I hope your day was much better than mines," she said as she looked to Asami. "Is everything alright?" she asked seeing Korra's body language.
"Yeah just tired," Asami said with a half smile. She held up the bag in her hand and said, "the stuff from the beach. I was just about to put it in the wash," as Pema wave it off.
She took the bag from Asami and said, "you've done enough already. thank you for today. I really needed it," while walking past her and Korra and towards the kitchen.
"Well I'll see you tomorrow," Asami said as Pema shouted back that she would too.
Korra walked out the front door with Asami and towards her car. As they both got in they remained quiet. Korra took a short drive up the street to Asami's house.
Parking, Korra kept her eyes on the steering wheel. Asami looked off to the side and then toward Korra. Watching her, Asami placed her hand on Korra's to get her attention. "Thanks for today," she said as Korra took her hand in hers looking over at Asami.
"No. I should be thanking you. It was really fun," she said sincerely. Asami leaned over in her seat planting a kiss on Korra's cheek. Her heart began to beat fast with her face turn a light shade of red.
Asami looked down at her lap as she began to rub the back of Korra's hand with her thumb. "My brothers having a birthday party tomorrow..." she mention with her gaze meeting back with Korra's. "I'd really like it if... you came. You know if you're not busy," she said with a bit of nervousness in her own voice. Asami was a very confident woman but the feeling she was getting in her own stomach waiting for Korra's answer was completely new to her.
Korra gulped nodding her head, "yeah I'll be there," she said taking deep breaths still feeling a tingling sensation of Asami's lips on her cheek.
"Great, I'll see you tomorrow at 6. I'll text you the location," she said giving Korra's hand one good squeeze before letting go. She got out of the car holding her plush polar bear dog in hand as she walked up toward her door with her bag in hand.
Korra felt her cheek where Asami had kissed her with a smile forming on her lips. She then rolled down the window to the passenger side and shouted. "Goodnight!" which caused Asami to turn around.
She smiled at Korra and said, "Goodnight," before turning back around. Korra waited until she was inside the house before leaving. Asami look back waving as she opened the front door.
Seeing Korra wave back, Asami walked inside and closed the door shut. Her back pressed against it nearly sliding down on the floor. She smiled to herself and sniffed the toy smelling Korra's scent.
"Who was that?" a voice asked as Asami's eyes grew ten times its size as her heart began to pound from the scare she got. Looking over toward the window, Asami could see her little brother who was still up. Kai was glancing out the window at the car that just drove off.
"Someone special," she replied before standing up straight. "Shouldn't you be in bed?" she asked taking a pillow off the couch throwing it at him. He dodged it and stuck his tongue out before running upstairs. Asami held on to her plush dog and rubbed the top of its head. "Korra Jr." she said with a giggle before heading up to bed.
