A shiver ran down Korra's spine waking her. As her eyes opened her pupils adjusted to the darkness of their bedroom. The frigid air of the room grazes her skin threatening to seep into her bones. She grumbles before reaching over her body to find the blanket. Her hand fumbles around in search of the missing sheets. Yet and she can feel is the mattress below. She extends her arm even further moving her hand around in different directions. The angle is awkward and uncomfortable but she is persistent in returning to sleep. The waterbender still comes up empty handed. Her brow contorts; confused as to where the layers of sheet had disappeared to.
Finally she sits up and looks over to the body next to her. Kuvira lay on her side facing Korra. Only her face is visible to the bender the rest of her is wrapped up in a cocoon of blankets. Her normally perfect hair is splayed across the pillow; framing her face like a crown. Normally her hair was pulled back when she slept; this was a different sight for her. The Avatar's face softens at the view. She could see her teeth chatting slightly as her shoulders would rise then fall. This was their third night living together in the south. She had grown up in this weather. To her this was nothing more than a light chill. But for her girlfriend she could imagine just how cold it must have felt to her. It snowed in the Earth Kingdom but also in certain parts and not like this.
Korra scooted in closer before reaching over. Her fingers carefully began to pry Kuvira's cocoon open. She had to be carefully; she was such a light sleeper and the last things she wanted to do was wake her. Just as she opened it she lifted up the layers and slid under them. Her left arm wrapped around her girlfriend's waist pulling her in close. The waterbender focused on her breath raising her body temperature just a bit above average. She stayed awake listening as the sound of her lover's chattering teeth turned into silence. She lay there a few minutes longer making sure Kuvira had fallen asleep. Korra whisper a gentle 'good night,' before closing her eyes and allowing herself to drift off into a deep slumber.
