Chapter 2

'Is this really happening right now? Did she just make that comment and follow up with: do you wanna hang out? No, Asami…Korra is your best friend, it's normal for your friend to want to hang out...you are over analyzing again, just act normal'

Blinking away her thoughts Asami gazed back into her friend's big beautiful blue eyes. 'Oh I could get lost in her eyes forever' she thought before smiling from ear to ear, "Sure…but can I go shower and change first? I'm still kind of sweaty from practice" She responded.

Korra sighed in relief to Asami's answer, she really thought she was going to say no because she paused for so long before answering. The shorter girl laughed softly to Asami's response, "Yeah. I should probably do that too. Come over when you are done?" she questioned.

"Yeah" the taller girl replied as she brushed past Korra heading towards their dorm building. Turning back to look at Korra she continued talking, "You should order the pizza so its here when we're done showering, Oh, and you should get pineapples on my side" she winked then continued walking to the dorm building.

After Asami disappeared behind the building's door Korra groaned pulling her hands down the sides of her face in a frustrated manner, "Ugh…why is this happening?" she asked out loud.

"Because you have a crush on her," a familiar voice said behind her. Korra turned to see Jinora walking up to her, already changed out of her practice clothes and in some stylish brick red shorts and a yellow shirt. "I don't know why you don't just tell her how you feel, it's pretty obvious that she feels the same way," she affirmed with a small grin.

"No, we are just really close friends and she's just comfortable around me" Korra answered while rubbing the back of her neck. "Besides I don't want to mess up our friendship. It means too much to me," she continued.

Jinora placed her hand on the older girls shoulder, sensing the older girls conflicted feelings, "I think, if anything it will make your relationship stronger, but you travel at your own pace," she said gently.

Wanting to change the subject Korra asked with a raised eyebrow "I thought that tonight was you and Kai time since you both don't have class?"

"Yeah, but I had to grab some notes from Opal before I headed towards his dorm" she answered. Releasing Korra's shoulder she smiled smugly, "I guess that means you get the room to yourself tonight. Is that why you invited Asami over?" She laughed.

Avoiding an angry punch from her roommate she snickered and started walking away, "You better go clean up before she comes over," she called out over her shoulder.

Realizing she still was all dirty from practice, Korra ran towards the building. Pulling out her phone as she opened the door, she dialed the pizza palace, "Hello, delivery to Republic City University…"

Asami stood in front of her dresser with a towel wrapped around her long hair and in a matching red bra and lacy panties. Contemplating how comfortable she wanted to be, she decided to grab some black Batman sweatpants that hung loosely off her hips and a grey V-neck shirt that was one size too big. Throwing her towel off she got dressed and started to head out the door as she passed her desk she noticed a post-it note on one of her textbooks it said: ENGN 320 Quiz – Thursday. 'Oh Shit that's tomorrow I should grab my notes so I can study at Korra's' she thought as she started to shove things in her book bag. Grabbing all her notes she headed out the door.

Crossing the hall and traveling down four doors she stood in front of Korra's room, opening the door she stared at the not so organized side of the room. Jinora's bed was on the right side of the room and it was quite organized, but Korra's side looked very much lived in. Books were thrown aimlessly on the floor and bed as well as clothes, but much to Asami's surprise the space felt homier than anything really. She walked further into the room wondering where Korra was as she threw her bag onto her best friends bed. Just then she noticed the faint sound of water being turned off coming from Korra's bathroom as well as Korra's voice and music.

"Hey hey, you you, I know that you like me. No way, no way, you know it's not a secret. Hey hey, you you, I want to be your girlfriend" Korra sang as she wrapped herself in a towel, banging her head around to one of her past favorite songs that happened to come on Pandora. Korra opened the door to her bathroom still singing the song, while bouncing around not paying much attention to anything as she danced over to her dresser.

Asami tried to choke back her laugh as Korra came dancing out of the bathroom not giving a care in the world. Korra looked so precious as she sang along to the song wrapped in a towel with her damp hair flailing around. 'I'm in love with a dork' Asami thought to herself, smiling as Korra grabbed some clothes from her dresser.

Korra was in her own little world, until she heard another voice join hers, "In a second you'll be wrapped around my finger, cause I can, cause I can do it better" Stopping what she was doing she slowly turned her head to see Asami sitting on the bed smiling like a little kid that just got candy singing the song. Korra's heart stopped 'How long has she been sitting here?' she wondered as her cheeked flushed red. Rubbing the back of her neck she smiled, hoping it would ease her nerves, "I didn't see you there, Asami," she said nervously.

"It's okay, you looked like you were having fun," she said happily.

Not knowing how to divert from the situation Korra laughed nervously, when suddenly the music on her phone cut out and was replaced with a ringtone. Thanking the spirits that someone was calling she walked to the bathroom and answered the phone. "Hello, yeah, okay, you just turn right there, mhmm, yup, I'll be down in a second, thanks."

Korra came to the entrance of the bathroom and looked at Asami, still slightly embarrassed by what happened she tried not to make direct eye contact, "Sami, you think you could go pick up the pizza downstairs since you're dressed? The money is on my desk."

"Yeah I can do that" she replied grinning as she got off the bed, grabbed the money and went out the door.

When Asami walked back into the room Korra was sitting on her bed against the backboard with her Playstation controller in her hands, browsing through Netflix. She appeared comfortable in her RCU sweatpants and a black shirt with the sleeves cut off, she smiled when she saw Asami enter and began to drool over the smell of the pizza.

"That smells soooo good," she says as Asami places it on the bed. She dives forward and opens the box, taking in the beautiful sight and smell and hums cheerfully. Asami starts to drool with her friend as they stare down at the pizza, half meat-lovers (for Korra) and the other half with bacon and pineapples (for Asami). They reach forward grabbing a slice and taking a bite into the still melting cheese, "Oh spirits…this is…oh…I didn't realize I was so hungry" Korra purrs in between bites with bliss written all over her face.

"Did you find something for us to watch?" Asami asks as she finishes her first slice and sits on the bed next to Korra.

"No…I was just looking…when you came in," she responds in between bites. Asami reaches in front of Korra and grabs the controller, flipping through the many selections she stops and looks at Korra with wide eyes. "We should totally watch Treasure Planet!"

Korra almost dropped her slice of pizza when she heard that, swallowing she beamed up at Asami "Fuck yeah, that's only, like, one of my favorite movies," shoving the pizza in her mouth she grabbed the controller from Asami, too excited to wait for her to find the movie and went in her list and played it.

Asami warmly smiled at her excited friend as she grabbed another slice and leaned back into the pillows, waiting for the movie to start. Her mind was invaded by memories as she heard the beginning of the movie.

Freshman Year – Korra's Room

Korra was sitting on her bed reading from one of her international studies textbooks when she heard a knock on the door. She got up and walked over to the door; opening it she saw the starting pitcher on her softball team standing in front of her smiling.

"Hey Asami, what's up," she asked leaning against her doorframe.

"Hey. I was just bored and thought that maybe we could hang out," the pitcher answered honestly.

Korra stared at her blinking slowly, wondering why Asami Sato would want to hang out with her before a smile broke out across her face. "Yeah, come in," she motioned to Asami, and then closed the door behind her.

"Sorry my room is so messy," Korra admitted as she threw some books off her bed so Asami could sit down comfortably.

"It's okay, Coach Beifong has been working us hard for fall ball so I understand" Asami shrugged leaning back onto the bed, glad that she could finally relax.

"So what do you want to do? We could watch a movie, or play some games, I have a Playstation, or we could go out, or we could just talk," Korra questioned before plopping down beside Asami.

Asami studied the darker skinned girls muscular features before answering, "Honestly, I just wanted to talk, maybe order some food…"

Korra's eye shoot open as she turned to Asami "Can we order pizza?"

Asami laughed at the sudden change in mood "Yeah, I'll buy, what do you want?"

30 minutes later they were both sitting on Korra's bed eating pizza. Between bites Korra continued her story, "I got a scholarship to RCU for softball, and even though I wouldn't be able to see my parents much, I left the southern water tribe so I could live out my dream playing softball."

Asami nodded "That's amazing, Korra," she paused, frowning before continuing "after my mother died when I was 14 I decided that I had to come to RCU, she also went here and she was on the softball team, she taught me everything she knew" tears started forming in her eyes at the memory. She blinked not knowing why she was confiding to Korra, they just met a couple of weeks ago at that stupid team-building thing.

Korra waited patiently as Asami collected herself again, staring in her lap she continued "Shortly after her death my father built a new Softball field for the University in her name because he knew how much it meant to her…that was when I started practicing more because I knew I had to make the team so I could make her proud."

She felt a hand press down on her shoulder and looked up to meet blue eyes. "Your mom would be very proud of you, Asami. You are one of the best pitchers I have ever met," she said sincerely.

"Thanks, Korra," she smiled bringing her new friend in for a hug.

Korra grinned, happy to make her friend feel better. After breaking the hug they sat in comfortable silence, as Asami sorted out her emotions she began to really take in her surroundings and what was in Korra's room. She looked over near the TV gazing at the different video games and movies Korra had when her eyes widened, "You have so many Disney movies," she claimed excitedly like a child. Moving over to the rack she began to scan through them all "Oh my goodness…I love The Aristocats…and you have Pocahontas? What's Treasure Planet?" she turned to Korra brows scrunched together.

Korra's mouth hung open in disbelief "You've never seen Treasure Planet?"

"Uhhh…no?"

"We're watching it" Korra insisted as she moved from her bed to the movie stand. She took the disc out and popped it in her PS3, returning back to her bed with the controller. Korra looked up at a still standing Asami, she patted next to her on the bed, "This is one of the best movies ever, and personally one of my favorites" she said as she snuggled into her bed. Asami smiled, knowing that this was the start of a great friendship and took a seat next to Korra.

Asami broke out of the memory, smiling at the fact that two years later they were doing the same thing, despite the fact that her feelings for Korra may have changed into romantic ones. As she started to get settled into the movie she remembered she had a quiz the next day, face palming herself mentally, she reached over the bed to the ground and grabbed her book.

"Sami, what are you doing?" Korra asked.

"I have a quiz tomorrow that I have to study for," she replied flipping through her book to the chapter she needed.

"Do you want me to stop the movie so you can study?" Korra paused the movie waiting for an answer.

Why does she have to be so sweet all the time? "No, I'll be okay, I know most of this stuff anyway, besides I want to spend time with you" she answered with a smile in her eyes.

She wants to spend time with me? Maybe she does like me…Jinora did say that her feelings towards me were just as obvious...

"Okay, but if you start getting distracted I'll have to stop the movie, got me?" Korra instructed with a straight face. Both laughed at the threat before Korra pressed play.

Oh don't worry, the movie won't be what's really distracting me, it'll be you. Asami thought as she glanced over Korra's body and settled on her gorgeous blue eyes. Sighing, she returned to her textbook and notes.

After about half an hour of studying, she felt Korra's head fall against her shoulder, slightly startled she turned to find that she had fallen asleep. A soft smile played on her lips as she reached over and pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. How can she be so adorable when she's asleep? Asami looked over to her notes then back to Korra, deciding she knew the material enough she placed her stuff softly on the ground, trying hard not to disturb her crush. Turning back around she rested her head on top of Korra's; I wish we could do this everyday, she thought before drifting off to sleep.
