Chapter twenty-three

Start from the beginning
                                    

Korra: too many, but none of my relationships were very serious

Asami: what do you mean?

Korra: they never lasted long. One - two months maximum

Asami: What was the reason?

Korra: in most cases we weren't it for each other and I was young i didn't really take it seriously

Asami: well doesn't sound inviting

Korra: it was a long time ago, and well sometimes you just know when you meet the right person

Asami: I guess you are right

For the rest of the evening, we talked about small, silly things in order to get to know each other better. We didn't even notice a couple of hours that passed by.

Asami: I think we should head back to the camp

Korra: I guess, it is getting cold. But the sound of the ocean is so soothing

Asami: I miss my friends and my company, but most of all I miss a warm shower. This cold waterfall is getting old

Korra: I heard warm water is bad for your skin

Asami: I don't care

Korra: you know what? I actually like being here with you. No problems no responsibilities I wouldn't exchange it for any fighting terterment or to see my parents.

Asami: And I wouldn't change being with you for any shower, no matter how warm it would be

Korra: that is so romantic

Asami: so I was thinking, can I ask you a question?

Korra: i guess

Asami: answer me honestly please. When we go back...

Korra: if we go back

Asami: if we go back.. What will happen with us in Republic City?

Korra: I.. - why would you bring up the city topic all of the sudden, it has been a month. I don't want to disappoint you, but the rescue-

Asami: reducing people takes time

Korra: A month?

Asami: ok so maybe it is not by rescue crew maybe we will be found by a cruise that made a trip

Korra: we are in the middle of fucking nowhere, Asami. Please don't get your hopes up

Asami: you are wrong, sooner or later, someone will find us. And then we can

Korra: enough! Do you hear yourself? It is more probable that we will be dead by tomorrow!

Asami: .....

Korra: i-i didn't want to say it, I am sorry

Asami: it is like you want to stay here forever, what is wrong with you?

Korra: with me? I did almost everything to make you happy! Aren't you happy with me ?

Asami: I am happy with you, but I can't enjoy you here. I feel like it is not real. I feel like we are living in some kind of book

Korra: what if this is the only place where we can be together?

Asami: so I am a fling to you

Korra: no, Asami, you are not. Believe me , I meant it when I said that you wouldn't even look at me in Republic City

Asami: because you are poor? I have money

Korra: I don't want your money, don't pity me

Asami: I don't pity you, but if it made things easier

I watched her take a deep breath

Asami: now we know each other. It will be okay, right?

Korra: the thing is we don't. What is the point of this conversation? Why are we supposed to discuss Republic City if we are not there?

Asami: Cause I want to feel that it all matters

Korra: Okay, so you want me to give you the "nothing will tear us apart" speech? Are you going to guarantee me the same? That no matter how our lives look like after coming back, you will accept everything that comes with living with me? How can you be so sure that you won't go back to your beloved boyfriend?

Asami: ....

Korra: that is what I thought, you need to imagine how in the city life would be because being here with me just is not enough for you

Asami: I just want to plan our future!

Korra: Maybe you need to accept the fact that our future is here, Asami! On this island,

Asami: you are full of bullshit, Waters *walks back to camp*

Was anything she told me the truth? I wanted to believe so,but I couldn't be sure. What if her concerns were right? Would I end my long lasting relationship just after going back to Republic City? It was easy to say it, when Mako and Kuvira were out of sight.

Korra: Asami...

She gave me a hug from behind me.

Korra: Can you just trust me when I say that I care about you?

Asami: I know you do, I just want it to last forever.

She grabbed me and pulled me closer to her. Would I give up on her that easily in the city? Would she give up on me?

Korra: I would do anything for you. Believe me, but it is all just complicated.

As much as I was angry at her I couldn't cause I understood it completely. Maybe it was for the best? To live in this bubble that we created.

Korra: I promise you, if we ever go back, we will discuss everything, but we can't have this conversation right now. It is pointless. What we can do is live like there is no tomorrow.

Asami: you are right, I just want you to know that I would accept you as you are because I care about you

Korra: I care about you too, more than you think

I looked at her eyes and leaned in, she followed and we brought our lips together. Even if I still was full of doubts, I just wanted to be in her arms and forget about everything. We practiced after.

(in the morning)

Asami: *humming*

Korra: *thought* I have been thinking all night it is time to tell her

Korra: hey, how are you feeling?

Asami: *hugs Korra* better, good morning

Korra: Listen, I think we need to talk. What you said yesterday..... Asami?

Asami: do you hear that?

Korra: yes!

~helicopter noise~

Asami: it is help
