My Other Half is You
Lin let out a low growl as she watched Bolin’s retreating form. She had seen the now mover famous earthbender come in to visit his brother, so she discreetly stuck around. When she heard him saying Mako would have no problem getting the insanity defense, she saw red. She forced herself to stay calm and out of sight.
Ever since Mako had been thrown in the jail cell, she had come up with excuses to hang around the station. She even threw a blanket and pillow into his cell when he was asleep. No one seemed to know where the bedding came from, or didn’t care. She was doing the best she could to make sure Mako was okay, discreetly of course.
She shook her head and walked out of the station. She hopped in her Satomobile and drove to the Pro-bending Arena to make sure security for Varrick’s mover premier was okay. She personally thought they were stupid as fuck, but if they made people feel sympathetic to the Southern Water Tribe and support them, she sure as hell wouldn’t argue against it. She supported the South completely in this war, but she couldn’t go public with her views. Tensions were flaring in Republic City, and her job was to make sure her city was as safe as possible, regardless of how it impacted her.
She shook her head and walked into the arena, triple checking to make sure security was as tight as possible. Her own feelings of unease about Varrick or Bolin be damned, she had to make sure they were safe. She wouldn’t be able to forgive herself if something went wrong.
Of course something went wrong. It always would, but damn she thought it was less likely this time. She ran a hand over her face and sighed. Mako was finally able to prove his innocence and proved his hunch was right: Varrick was the culprit. She felt so proud when she promoted him to detective, giving him one of her rare smiles.
She walked out of the station, planning on going home and just sleeping as long as she could. She pushed open the door to her apartment and stopped in shock.
“Hey,” Kya said, getting up off the couch and walking over to her.
“Hey,” she replied, pressing a soft kiss to her lips. Quickly, the kiss became heated and desperate. She had missed her so much and poured raw emotion into the kiss.
Kya broke away first and put her forehead against Lin’s. “We came in to warn Raiko. We’re leaving tomorrow but I had to see you. I missed you so much,” she said, wrapping her arms around the shorter woman.
Lin stepped back to bend her armor off. “I missed you too,” she replied, stepping back into her lover’s embrace, clad in just her tank top and pants. She tucked her head against her chest, just listening to her heartbeat.
“Hey can we talk?” Kya asked, heart beginning to race nervously.
“What’s up?” Lin asked, immediately anxious. Kya was gently tugging on her necklace, a nervous habit of hers.
“It’s-” She paused, blue eyes gazing intensely at her. “It’s nothing bad but I had a different vision. Spirits, I’m doing a shit job,” she said, letting out a short laugh.
Lin stepped back and put a hand on her face. “Hey,” she said gently, pressing a kiss to her forehead. “It’s okay. I’ll pour some wine while you collect your thoughts.”
Kya nodded, throat closing up with emotion. She quickly walked over to the couch, picking up her bag. She picked up the necklace, gingerly holding it. She had spent all of her free time carving the charm for the betrothal necklace. As soon as they landed in Republic City, she went to a jeweler she had talked to before she left. They had managed to put a beautiful line of sapphires and emeralds on a stunning silver chain. At her request, they then surrounded the chain with her black ribbon.
She held the necklace in her hand, eyes welling with emotion. For now, she put the necklace back in its sealskin pouch. She walked over to the kitchen and accepted the glass of wine handed to her.
“Alright so, I imagined this being all grand and romantic in my head, but I’ve decided it can’t wait so fuck it,” she said, taking a sip of her wine.
“Baby, what’s going on?” Lin asked, looking at her in concern.
“You know, I’ve been thinking lately. I love you so much Lin Beifong. You mean the world to me. Every second I spent away from you hurt me. I-” Her voice trailed off, eyes filling with tears.
“I love you more than anything. You’ve become the most important thing in my life. So, I got you this,” she said, anxiously showing the pouch in her hand.
She untied the pouch with shaking hands, letting the sealskin fall to reveal the necklace within. “You’re the most important thing. You’re not only my best friend, but my greatest support, my true love, my other half. I can’t imagine the rest of my life without you by my side. Will you marry me?” she asked, voice shaking with the intensity of her love.
Everything came to a stop for Lin. She just looked at the beautiful necklace, staring at the charm that showcased their love. Tears welled in her eyes, this necklace was a representation of their love. Lin threw her arms around her, letting the tears in her eyes roll down her face. “Of course I’ll marry you,” she said with a watery smile.
“I love you so much. I think you were meant for me. I can’t imagine being with anyone else, it would destroy me to not have you with me.” She kissed her, letting the tears of joy in her eyes spill over.
Kya took the necklace in her hands and tied the ribbon around her neck. The silver chain studded with a beautiful row of sapphires and emeralds shone against the black ribbon, the fluorite charm only adding to the beauty. She had taken her brother’s suggestion and carved it with the Earth Kingdom circle and the Water Tribe swirls. The charm hung in the hollow of her throat, proudly shining.
“I’m yours and you’re mine,” she said, kissing her fiancée.
“Until death do us part,” she replied, holding her face in her hands. Her fiancée, spirits she was her betrothed now , leaned her pale face into her dark hand. She pressed a gentle kiss to her palm, both hearts swelling in love.

********
Kya stepped closer to her. “You know, we should celebrate,” she said, running her thumb across her lips.
Lin’s face turned red at her lover’s voice. “I’m okay with that idea,” she said, hating how her voice came out in a high pitch.
Kya leaned down, forcing Lin against the counter. “Good girl,” she said, breath hot against her ear.
Lin let out a small whimper she couldn’t hold back if she tried. She was so stupidly in love with this woman and she needed her right now. “Please,” she whispered.
Kya took mercy on her and slid her right hand down her body. “Now, you’re going to look me in the eyes,” she said, tugging on her hair with her left hand.
“Yes ma’am,” she choked out, already feeling her core tighten with arousal.
“You know, you’re mine now,” she said, tracing a finger across her collarbones. “It’s. Showing. Right. Here.” With every word, she sucked a hickey onto her chest, leading up to the charm dangling in the hollow of her throat.
Lin let out a low moan. “I’m yours,” she agreed, voice shaking already.
“It’s okay my slutty princess, I’ll take care of you,” she said, running a hand across the top of her underwear.
Lin whined in anticipation, already feeling herself begin to drip. Kya smirked and licked a stripe down her neck, gently biting on her pulse point. She slid her hand underneath the fabric, enjoying the hitch in her lover’s breath at the movement. She then slid a finger through the folds, enjoying the whimper she received.
“You’re already so wet for me,” Kya said, letting out a low moan. “You’re such a good slut. You’re mine. ”
“I’m yours,” Lin agreed breathlessly as the grip in her hair tightened. Her fiancée’s shameless protectiveness turned her on to no end.
“Good girl,” she replied, gently thumbing at her clit. “You’re so good for me, my little slut. Look me in the eyes as I fuck you and let me hear those pretty noises you make.”
Lin moaned, shamelessly spreading her legs apart further apart for Kya. Kya’s fingers gently entered her, rubbing against her walls. Kya then began fingering her ruthlessly while simultaneously attacking her clit.
“Tell me who you belong to as you cum,” she growled into her ear.
Lin let out a whine. The feeling of Kya was already overwhelming her senses. The fingers inside of her, the hot breath against her ear, the firm grip in her hair, the painfully good pressure against her clit. Everything was hers now.
“I belong to you,” she whispered, feeling herself climb towards her first climax.
“Good girl. Now cum for me, my slutty princess,” Kya muttered, tugging on her hair even more.
Lin came with a long moan, falling apart on her fingers. She looked to her betrothed in a daze and pressed a soft kiss to her lips.
Kya gently pulled her to the bedroom. “Here, lay down. I’ll undress you,” she said, gently pressing a kiss to her palm.
Lin laid down on the bed, letting her soon-to-be wife control her. Kya climbed on top of her, straddling her between her thighs. She gently pulled her tank top off over her head, pressing soft kisses to her arms.
“You don’t have to do that,” Lin said, ducking her head in embarrassment.
Kya tilted her chin up and looked her in the eyes. “Tonight I’m going to worship you. I’m going to memorize every inch of your skin,” she said, accentuating her point with a soft kiss to her bicep.
Lin nodded and kissed her gently. She let Kya continue kissing her way down her body, taking off pieces of clothing as she went. Kya pressed soft kisses over every inch of skin she could reach.
Kya finally looked up at her between her thighs, pushing her pants down. “Well, well, well,” she said, running a finger across the line of her underwear.
“You’ve absolutely ruined these love,” she said, pressing an opened mouth kiss to her inner thigh. “Is this all for me?”
“All for you,” she said, panting. “Only for you.”
Kya smiled and slid her underwear down. “You’re absolutely soaking my love. Already ready to cum again?” she asked, sliding her own clothing off.
She smirked at her lover’s desperate nod. “Well, tonight is going to be fun for you,” she said, reaching to the nightstand.
Lin eyed her in anticipation, watching her pull out a black bag. “I got us a new toy,” she said, biting her pulse point softly.
Kya took the toy out of the bag, showing her the double ended dildo. “Now, we can fuck each other,” she said, voice setting her core on fire.
She raised an eyebrow in a silent question to which Lin readily answered. She watched as Kya teased herself with the toy, moaning her name. Kya finally slid the black toy into her dark folds before pressing a kiss to Lin’s lips.
She turned herself against Lin, scissoring their legs together. Kya thrusted down, gently easing the toy into her. Lin let out a low moan at the incredible feeling of Kya’s sex against hers while simultaneously being filled.
The two began to grind against each other. “You’re so fucking good for me,” Kya praised between moans. “You’re such a good girl.”
Lin simply whined, feeling herself float. It felt like all that mattered in the world was the feeling of Kya against her and her lover’s coaxing words. She moaned, speeding up her grinding as she reached her peak.
“Please,” she begged. At this point, she didn’t even know what she was asking for. She just felt drunk on this intense feeling of love.
“Cum for me baby,” Kya muttered, chasing her own peak as well.
Before long, both women crashed into one of the most intense orgasms they’ve ever had. Kya gently eased the toy out of Lin before taking it out of herself. She furrowed her eyes in concern when she noticed her lover simply laying there.
“Baby, are you okay?” she asked, placing a hand against her face.
Lin tried to nod, but she didn’t know if she was successful. “Everything’s floaty,” she said, voice slightly slurring.
“Okay, hey look at me,” Kya said, pressing a soft kiss to her. “I’ve heard about this before and it’s called a sub drop. Now I’m going to take care of you, okay?” At Lin’s nod, she quickly walked to the bathroom and turned the shower on.
Lin whined at the immediate loss of contact. Right now, she needed Kya. She was the only thing keeping her grounded. Quickly, she felt her familiar warmth against her skin and relaxed into her lover’s body.
Kya pressed a soft kiss to her forehead and picked her up. She carried her to the warm shower, gently lowering her to the ground so she could stand. She quickly shampooed her own hair before slowly working it into Lin’s. She ran her fingers through the short gray hair, gently massaging her scalp.
Kya then rinsed their hair and conditioned her own. She then applied the conditioner to Lin’s hair, gently untangling the knots. She quickly washed their bodies down with soap before rinsing them off.
As she bent the water off of them, she silently thanked the spirits for waterbending. She quickly guided Lin to the bed before wrapping her up in a soft blanket.
“I’m going to get us some tea,” she said, gently leaning her against some pillows. “I’ll be back soon my love.” Kya quickly walked out to the kitchen and prepared a pot of tea. While she waited for the tea to boil, she grabbed some snacks for Lin.
She reached up and grabbed a plate, placing the grapes, dark chocolate, and lychee nuts on the ceramic. She poured the warm tea into two mugs, walking back into their bedroom.
“Hey baby, I got you some food,” she said, placing the mugs and plate on their nightstand.
She snuggled up to Lin, who still looked disconnected and out of it. She pressed a kiss to her forehead before grabbing some chocolate. She placed a piece in her mouth, gently mummering praise. She continued feeding Lin from the plate while waiting for Lin to come down from her drop.
Before long, Lin looked at her with clear eyes. “Hey baby,” she said, voice cracking.
“Hey beautiful,” she said, handing her a warm mug of tea. “Here, drink up. I know your throat must be hurting.”
Lin smiled in appreciation before taking a sip of the tea. Kya continued to feed her, and to her surprise, Lin didn’t put up a fight.
“Are you feeling okay?” Kya asked, running a hand through her hair.
“Yeah,” she replied, pressing a soft kiss to her palm. “I don’t know what happened to me though. It was like I was drunk and floating. You were the only thing keeping me grounded.”
“That’s a sub drop Lin. It happens sometimes during sex. I’m here to help you,” she said, gently kissing her.
Lin closed her eyes and tucked her head into her chest. “I love you so much.”
“I love you too,” she replied, pressing a kiss to her lips.
Before long, the single kiss evolved into a soft makeout session. Kya let out a soft sigh, letting herself cry softly.
“Spirits, I love you so much,” she said, tears of joy rolling down her face.
“I love you too. It’s why I’m marrying you my dear,” Lin replied, her own watery eyes showing her emotion.
In the morning, Kya would have to leave and fight. Lin would have to protect the city. Their duties would be thrust upon them. For now though, they had each other. Until the sun rose over the horizon, their sole responsibility was to each other. For now, they just basked in each other’s presence, love strengthening them to go forward and keep on. They would keep on going for each other.
