Korra laid in bed that night thinking about how everything in her life had changed. Never in a million years did she think should would be sleeping with two men at once, and never did she think that she would become pregnant by either of them. Only six months before she was in a monogamous relationship with the Water Tribe Representative councilman, and was quite happy with the direction it was going. Now, being in a relationship with both men was something she couldn't imagine giving up.

Of course she was still upset about the fact that her lover had bloodbent her. The men were sleeping in separate rooms from her as a result of it. She wasn't sure what to do about her negative feelings towards Tarrlok. Then there was the fact that she definitely was pregnant, and she felt a wave of emotion crash over her.

"It's okay," She says quietly to no one in particular. Her hand moves to her abdomen, where she knows that life is growing. Korra worries about telling her parents, when they haven't even met her lovers yet. She's not sure how her dad will take it specifically, since she's his little girl. She's not married, and marriage probably wont be something available to her. She just hoped they'd be understanding and support her decision.

A knock sounded on her door. Korra sat up; the sheet that had been covering her fell to her waist. The bedding rustled as she climbed off the large bed. When she opened the door slightly, she found Noatak standing on the other side. She breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door wider.

"Hey," He whispered. Though, Korra didn't understand why he did; Tarrlok was situated in the guest bedroom on the other side of the house on the ground floor. She smiled. "Can I come in?"

"Yeah, of course," She kept her voice low as well. The older man walked through the door and closed it behind him. Korra stood away from the door and eyed him. He approached her, placing a hand on her waist when he got close enough.

"I couldn't sleep," He told her, to which she replied with a nod. He kissed the top of her head, his arms wrapping around her. She reciprocated the hug, her eyes prickling from the tears that were building. His voice soothed her. "I missed you."

"I missed you too," she whispered, her voice cracking slightly. He hugged her tighter to his chest. "I'm just so lost right now."

"I know, love," He said, his hand reached up to stroke her hair comfortingly. She cried loudly, snot running from her nose and her eyes puffing up. She'd never been an attractive crier, but she knew at that moment, there was nothing that compared. Noatak let her go to retrieve tissues from the bathroom, which she gladly accepted. He then guided her to the bed to sit her down. He just gazed at her. "Talk to me, Korra. There's a lot more than just the situation with Tarrlok bothering you. I'm here, so please don't shut me out."

Korra looked up at him, trying to gather the words she wanted to speak.

"I'm not even that upset about Tarrlok anymore," She finally admitted with a sigh. "I'm worried about how my parents will react. It's only been a month since our relationship was announced, and now I'm pregnant, and I'm not married, and I just feel like they'll be disappointed in me because I should have known to use protection, and I should have been more careful, but I just didn't think about it," She took a gasp of breath. "And I just feel like everyone's going to think I'm irresponsible."

"Korra, we were all irresponsible," Noatak shook his head. "We were all very immature about our sex life, and we all made the mistake of not talking about contraceptives. That's not your fault, it's ours as well."

"But, so many people are going to blame me," She said. " 'The Avatar went and got herself pregnant.' 'She should've thought about having sex without getting married.'"

"Married?" He looked surprised. "Couples have children outside of marriage all the time, Korra. Why are you so hung up on marriage?"

Korra just frowned and avoided his eyes.

"Do you want to get married, Korra?" He asked. She shrugged, trying to seem nonchalant. "Korra… You know that Tarrlok and I would give you whatever you wanted, right?"

"I know that," She states. "It may have crossed my mind that I'm missing out on the basic Water Tribe traditions of courting, but I don't care about that."

"But you do, don't you? You want Tarrlok and I to carve you pendants, and marry you under the full moon, and make love to you while calling you our wife, don't you?"

Korra blushed, but nodded slightly.

"Then it'll happen, Korra," Noatak pulled her into his arms again. "I don't plan on going anywhere, and I know Tarrlok doesn't either. You're the only woman he's ever committed to so fully, and he feels horrible about his actions early on in your relationship."

"I'm not really upset about that, Noa," She whispered. "I just…. I want our baby to have a good life, normal. And I want them to know that there was never a doubt in any of our minds about being parents."

"But there are doubts. There is fear, and there is doubt about keeping this child, Korra," His words were nothing but true, she knew that. She had been having doubts. She had thought about asking her lovers to induce an abortion more than she wanted to admit in the too short time since she knew she was pregnant. "It's normal to be scared, Korra, but please, understand that neither of us are going anywhere."

Korra looked up at him. His eyes were filled with emotion she was almost surprised to see. She placed her small hand on his neck and pulled him into a kiss. It was a kiss unlike any that the two of them had shared before, more emotional, more passionate. It was the kiss of a couple lost in their anguish, and their love.

When she woke the next morning, she seemed oddly at peace. The heavy arm over her waist reminded her that Noatak had fallen asleep with her the night before. Tarrlok would probably be jealous, but she knew that the separation of the threesome would no longer be in effect.

"Good morning, beautiful," Noatak's sleepy, dark voice was low in her ear, sending shivers down her spine. His arm tightened around her. "This is the first time we've woken up just the two of us. I rather enjoy it."

"Don't get used to it," She smiled. A huff came from him, and he kissed her cheek. Her stomach growled, alerting her to the dire situation of being hungry. "I'm hungry, Noa."

"We should be getting up, then, shouldn't we?" He asked. He sat up, stretching his arms above him. Before getting out of bed, he claimed her lips, surprising her. "I love you," He said when he broke the kiss.

"I love you too," She smiled briefly. "Now feed me."

"Yes, Mistress," He replied seriously. Korra rolled her eyes as she left the bed He followed as she made her way to the kitchen.

Tarrlok was already sitting at the table when they entered. Korra immediately went over to him and kiss his lips. He broke away almost immediately, surprised. She just smiled at him, and he reached for her face to pull her into another crushing kiss.

"I love you, Tarrlok," She said when the kiss ended. He nodded furiously.

"I love you too, Korra, more than you could ever know," He said. Noatak just laughed quietly from the stove, earning a glare from his brother. Korra chuckled too, happy that things seemed to be normal again.
