'Pairs' [korrasami]

Korra shoves him back.
"It's not the fucking plague."

"The rain got you good didn't it?" I say and Korra nods and leans into my shoulder, she already looks exhausted and it's only the early hours of the morning. My friends smile at the action whilst Korra's friends kind of look confused for a moment before they give me smug smiles. Mako however, he seemed a little uptight. I guess someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

I awkwardly grin at them, my cheeks heating up like before. Kuvira just chuckles and waves at Korra.
"Well we're going to class Korra. We'll see you at break." She says and Korra just gives them a nod. They leave us soon enough and my friends begin to chatter away to eachother. I turn to Korra again who still leans against me like her legs can't hold her up for much longer.

I feel her forehead again.
"You're really hot..." I say.
"Why did you come to school?"

Korra chuckles.
"Really hot huh?" She peers up to me, with a weak smile feeling proud of herself with her lastest response. The bell soon rings, saving me from Korra's amusing cockiness. Korra stands up straight, well tries to, her shoulders slouch slightly as she walks into the classroom. She still gives the teacher a salute before sitting at her desk

Geography went by in a flash, in the quiet moments all that could be heard was Korra's sniffling and the occasional sneeze that was muffled by her arm. We're walking to our next class, History but I don't think Korra even knows that. She's following the guidance of my shoulder by resting her head there as we walk.
"You should go to the sick bay or something before you feel any worse."

"Asami, I'm fine seriousl-" She suddenly sneezes.

"Yeah.. sure." I chuckle.
"How's your mum by the way?"

"It's her first day so I'm hoping everything is alright." She sniffles. I smile and search my pockets, pulling out a fresh tissue that I hand to her. She nods a 'thank you' and wipes her nose.

History goes a little slower. The note taking was a little intense and my hand went so numb that if I bit into it I probably wouldn't feel a thing. Korra spent most of the lesson with her head on her desk. Though half way through she did move her chair from across the classroom to set it in front of mine, only so she could fall asleep right on my notes.

Miss Beifong did look my way at one point, her brow furrowed once she looked at Korra and all I could do was shrug. To my surprise, all Miss did was sigh and continue to teach, not even bothering to ask Korra to move back to her original seat.

Science was a complete disaster. Bolin thought it would be funny to tie Korra's shoelaces together whilst she was sleeping. And it really was funny. He gave me and Opal a thumbs up with a grin and sat down quickly when Mr Tarlokk came in. Opal stiffled a giggle whilst I just rolled my eyes with a small smile, knowing that it wouldn't go well when Korra woke up.

That time came when Mr Tarlokk noticed that Korra was indeed fast asleep in the comfort of her wooden desk. He crossed his arms and everyone turned in their seats to follow his gaze.
"Korra." He said and he grew more angry when Korra only stirred in her seat.
"Korra!"

She shot up straight with dazed eyes, earning a few giggles from all round. She looks cute like that, so clueless and sleepy.
"Yeah?" She yawned and her face scrunched up like she needed to sneeze. And she did.

"Since you were sleeping in my lesson, I assume you already know everything about this topic." Mr Tarlokk pointed to the board with his marker where the equation was and then pointed over to her with the pen.
"Come up and balance this equation."

She slowly stood up from her seat and gave me a glance, winking at me in the process. I giggled a little and waited until she took a step. And when she did, her shoelaces straightened out into a tough line and she tripped. Head first and onto the floor. Lets just say Mr Tarlokk wasn't happy about that.
