Ночная жизнь

After being excused by a merciful Tenzin for a short tea break Korra meandered over to the edge of the dock. She plopped down and absentmindedly swirled the water below her in a figure eight pattern suspended in the air. She looked out over the water at Republic City. Invariably Korra was finding herself longing to be on the other side of the harbor. The city was a living, steaming, breathing organism of metal and pulleys-incessantly humming and throbbing even through the darkest moments of the night. Even though Korra had come to know the city fairly intimately as she had come to know its former chief of police fairly intimately she couldn't help but still marvel. It represented the point at which all four nations intersected-the locus of earth, air, water, and fire. And perhaps most importantly, at least to Korra, it was Lin's city. It was Lin's purview, the place where they had first met and the setting of the aftermath. Korra smiled as she let her tired mind wander back to the events of the previous night. She had arrived at Lin's a little later than usual that night. Naga had not been up for the trip as Meelo had fed her one too many moonpeaches earlier that day. A little out of character, Meelo had remorsefully and nobly "borrowed" Jinora's staff to lend to Korra as a commute alternative. Korra lacked experience flying with the staff as she was relatively new to airbending. She had plummeted into the sea thrice before giving up and huffing it across the murky bottom in a bubble. Walking was of course slower than flying, and of course bad flying was slower than Naga. Lin had just fallen asleep when Korra finally arrived. "Hey, sorry. Naga overindulged and I had to walk." Korra said softly as she gently spread herself on top of Lin. Lin shifted to accommodate Korra's weight and mumbled something sleepily into the pillow. Korra dipped down to nuzzle Lin's cheek. Korra brushed Lin's hair out of the way as she began to lightly kiss the back of Lin's neck. Lin lay motionless face down for another few moments before Korra heard her exhale. "Am I going to have to wake you up, sleepyhead? It's not that late…yet. Come on you can take a nap tomorrow in your office. If you turn around and let me get you out of this shirt then I'll personally make sure that no banks are robbed tomorrow." Still no response. Korra could tell by Lin's breathing that Lin hadn't fallen back asleep. She was just playing hardball. "Come on," Korra purred into Lin's ear as she began to massage Lin's shoulders. "I'll make it worth your while." After a few minutes of this Korra herself began to feel sleepy and decided that maybe it was a little late. Sleeping next to Lin was already exciting enough, anyhow. And if they both happened to somehow wake up later at the same time while it was still dark then…well… "If the offer still stands then I'll give you one hour max." Lin finally said, drawing Korra back abruptly from the brink of slumber. Lin then nudged Korra off her back with surprisingly agility. In one fluid motion she sat up to remove her tank and toss it to the floor. Lin playfully patted Korra's cheek and lay back against the pillows. She bit her lip as she watched Korra's eyes grow wide. Korra gawked dopily at Lin for several seconds-caught off guard by this sudden and fortuitous turn of events. "You see I don't have all night. So get to it, kid." Lin enunciated the word kid with a certain relish that made Korra's ears begin to prickle and feel warm. She suddenly was not very sleepy anymore. Rocking forward on her haunches she leaned in to kiss Lin. Lin curled her hand around Korra's neck as she settled into the kiss. They kissed slowly and politely for several minutes to ease themselves into whatever was next. Before too long Lin snaked her other hand up to lightly palm Korra's breast. Korra sighed softly as Lin's thumb began tracing her nipple. She felt herself harden almost instantaneously in response to the contact. The friction of Lin's hand against her through the thin shirt eventually became intolerable and Korra pulled back to rid herself of her shirt and bra. She then reached forward to run a hand through Lin's hair as she watched Lin appraise her topless form appreciatively. She watched Lin's eyes grow dark with lust and shuddered slightly as Lin began to pull her towards her. When Lin finally took a nipple into her mouth she moaned for the first time that night. She tightly gripped Lin's shoulders as Lin lazily swirled her tongue around. Another (this time perhaps a bit more meaningful) moan escaped Korra's lips and Lin took it as permission to proceed as she pushed Korra onto her back. Korra was just beginning to gasp when she remembered that technically she was the one who had promised to make Lin's night. She was reluctant, however, to stop Lin and almost completely lost her resolve to do so when one particularly deep motion made her grip the sheets so hard that she actually thought they might tear. She clenched her eyes shut and grimaced as she felt Lin's fingers curl inside her against a sensitive spot. Every movement of Lin's felt devastatingly good. Korra felt lightheaded as her ears rang and her temples throbbed. A promise was a promise, though. Korra grabbed Lin's wrist and tried to sit up. It was difficult to sit up given that Lin remained inside of her until she whined at her to pull out. Lin casually shrugged her shoulders and sat back against the headboard. She looked at Korra quizzically as she brought her fingers to her lips and poked her tongue out for a taste. Korra lunged forward to intercept Lin's hand and bring it toward herself instead. She slowly licked and sucked on all three fingers-never breaking eye contact. Lin stared in silent wonder at the delicious spectacle before her. She couldn't remember the last time she had been this…hungry. Before she could react Korra nimbly slid down the length of her body and eased apart her legs. Korra had positioned her head strategically between Lin's legs in a very dangerous location. The playful gleam in Korra's eyes made Lin's stomach muscles clench involuntarily. "There's no harm in getting breakfast a little earlier than usual. Wouldn't you agree, Chief?" Korra asked in an overly cheery way before lightly flicking her tongue against Lin. Lin's head snapped back and she bit her tongue to keep from saying something she might later regret. Lin had never been one for coarse language thus it was very tiring and troublesome that coarse language seemed to dominate her vocabulary in such trying circumstances. She was just beginning to regain her composure and formulate an answer to the question as Korra without warning kissed her center full on. As if it had a mind of its own Lin's hand landed on the back of Korra's head, forcing Korra downwards. Korra, taking the hint, dove deeper and deeper in to eventually find herself at the bottom of the ocean tucked away from everything else. The dark purple hue of dawn soon began to nip at the blacker edges of night. Purple transitioned into deep pink as night gave way to early morning. Korra slept soundly as sunlight slowly spilled over mountaintops and threw golden flecks all over the harbor waves. Lin soundlessly slipped out of bed as Korra dreamt on. In her dream she was again deep beneath the sea, only this time insulated within thick walls of ice protecting her from furiously swirling waters. And something, or someone, was calling to her to return to the world above.
