sleepy cutiepies
Kai rubs the sleep from his eyes, just making out her silhouette, illuminated by the light of the moon as she opens his door. "Jinora?"
"Couldn't sleep," she mumbles, closing the door and walking over to his bed. He peels back the sheets for her to climb in, and she settles beside him, warm as she wraps her arms around him.
"Your dad would kill me if he knew," Kai murmurs into her hair. He wonders if it was a nightmare that woke her up. He knows the one of him falling from the sky still haunts her, even though it's been over five years since it happened.
"Never stopped us before," Jinora sighs, her breathing already slowing, her breath soft and warm against his neck. She tucks her head just under his chin, already hogging most of the blankets, but he can't mind too much.
Kai kisses her forehead, right on her blue arrow. "You okay now?" he checks, before he realizes she's already fallen asleep. He smiles gently, and whispers, "G'night Jin," before he dozes off again.
Kai returns home from his first airbending mission
Kai hit the ground before Lefty did, not even having time to pin up the sleeves of his wingsuit before Jinora threw her arms around him. Kai wrapped his arms around her waist, lifting her off the ground and doing a spin as she laughed in his ear.
"I missed you so much," Jinora said, and Kai thought he'd never seen her look happier. It had been so hard being away for over two weeks, even with the spiritual projection. It felt good - better than good, to hold her in his arms again.
"I missed you too," he said cheerfully, all too aware of her - their, family he guessed - standing nearby, and giving her a quick kiss. They'd make up for it later, away from Tenzin's watchful eye. Although the master thought of Kai as a son, it still didn't mean Kai was going to push his luck.
Jinora slipped her hand into his as Kai greeted her siblings and her parents, a huge grin on both of their faces.
sunsets and snuggling (need I say more?)
"You cold?" Kai asked, looking over at Jinora, the sunset casting a soft warm glow over her face.
"A little," she admitted, snuggling closer to him, bunching up the blankets they had wrapped around them in a makeshift fort. She laid her head on his shoulder. "It's beautiful, isn't it?"
"It is," Kai agreed, looking away from the red sun and pecking her on the cheek. "You are too."
Jinora flushed, raising her head to kiss him briefly. "Thank you Kai. This might be my favourite date we've had."
"Really?" Kai said, wrapping an arm around her waist. "It's so simple." He knew Jinora loved the fancy elegant stuff too, nice dinners and dances.
"I'm a simple girl with simple needs," she said with a smile.
"So what do you need?" Kai said, already guessing what she was going to say.
"Books. Food," she teased. "Air, obviously." Kai pouted and she laughed. "And you, of course." Kai smiled a little as she kissed him again, the setting set illuminating them all tangled up in their pile of blankets.
These were all taken from prompts from people on my tumblr, thethiefandtheairbender, and I figured I should try to update a lil' something. I've been really busy lately, so that's why updates for this fic have been few and far between. I hope you enjoyed this! :)
