No Strings Attached

Chapter 3

She looked at her phone again seeing missed calls and text messages from Bolin asking about her where abouts and if she was ok. She then noticed a text between her and Asami, she somewhat remembered last night.

She sat up rubbing her eyes. She was fully clothed so that was a good sign. she looked next to her seeing no one and that side of the bed was untouched, also a good sign. She left the room and remembered the way out. She left.

—hours later—

Korra was taking her lunch break till her radio went off this time they were asking for her "Korra Sasaki, please report to the COO/CFO's office, over"

Korra furrowed her eyebrows in confusion,

"What you do?" A man next to her said, he's name was Verrick, he was an engineer in the second building. Him and Korra got along pretty well. He kinda reminded her of Bolin in a way

"I have no clue" Korra said, but in reality it could have been because of last night. She put her food away and radioed back letting them know she was on the way.

Korra made it to the door and took a breath. She knocked earning a voice saying 'come in' from the other side. Korra walked in seeing Asami standing over her desk looking at papers.

"You wanted to see me" Korra said getting her attention

"Yes, have a seat" she told Korra and she did as told

"is this about last night, I'm sorry, I didn't want to be a burden, and I know being drunk was even worse and-" she stopped talking when Asami put her hand up for her to stop talking

"look, you're not in trouble" Asami made her way around the front of her desk standing in front of Korra and leaned on it her desk crossing her arms "I just have a question, that may ruin my image to you but it's whatever to me"

"What is it?" Korra was curious

"Last night, you said that you wouldn't sleep with me... can I ask why?" Asami raised a brow. Korra noticed she was being serious

Korra looked around the room confused, like if this was a trap or something. "Excuse me?"

"You're the only person that actually sat there and said that, and I would like to know why?" Asami questioned again

Korra's heart was racing "I-i uh" she cleared her throat "I need to keep my job" she raised a brow

Korra was confused as to why Asami wanted to know this. Did she make Asami insecure? Or did she offend her?

"Look don't get me wrong, you seem nice and you're drop dead gorgeous, but I don't know you. I'm not the type to sleep around with whoever...unless I'm blackout drunk, I seem to have no control" Korra admitted "but most importantly, you're my boss, that's unprofessional, and I really need this job, and I'm embarrassed of myself for doing it the first time."

"Alright, fair" Asami sighed

"Can I ask, why did you care?" Korra asked

"Well, like I said, I was just never told no, or you know..." Asami looked down at herself "it's just, people always throw themselves at me, and for the first time someone didn't, it felt weird" she shrugged

"Well, apparently I threw myself at you the first time" Korra chuckled

"Mm, if you say so" Asami shrugged

"What? Did I not?"

"It was more like I threw myself at you"

"You're lying"

"Unfortunately I'm not, I kinda remembered what went down" Asami said "basically you said no and I didn't like it, but you know, I some how managed to you know, and we were in the limo, and throughout the make out over to my place, you kept saying we shouldn't" she shrugged "and I guess I wanted it more" she admitted

Korra was surprised Asami was telling her this.

"But you're right, I'm your boss and it's unprofessional" Asami said "anyways, I'm sorry for all of this, you can go on with your day and act like this never happened"

Korra got up from her chair "just so you know, your image remains the same to me, I don't think of you differently after this conversation, I know you were worried about that"

"Thank you" Asami said getting stuck staring at Korra's eyes, she then cleared her throat walking towards the door opening it for Korra

Korra was about to walk out the door but she looked at Asami. She knew she was still over thinking about the situation. Korra held out her hand. Asami looked at it and looked back up at Korra confused

"Let's start over" Korra said with a smile "Korra" she said and Asami took her hand shanking it

"Asami" she said and they both laughed about it.

But they were looking into each other's eyes. Seeing each other smile. Their chest got heavy and the smiles faded. "Korra..."

"Yes?"

"I don't think I can forget about it" Asami told her

"Me neither, but this shouldn't be a thing" Korra said.

Asami didn't think twice before closing the door locking it in the process and took Korra into a kiss. Korra was surprised and all she could do was kiss back because that's what she really wanted.

"W-wait, Asami" Korra knew that this couldn't go forward "we shouldn't"

"We shouldn't, but that doesn't me we can't" Asami said

'Fuck'
