Work Text:
Lin is a workaholic, that much is especially obvious to her lovers. She is a dedicated person, and there’s nothing wrong with that usually, but when it leads to her getting a lackluster amount of sleep, it becomes wrong.
Recently, that has become far more apparent as she’s started to bring her work home, the same home she shares with her wives. That decision was proving to be an unproductive one as you and Kya had a tendency to slip into her home office and ever so gently manipulate her into coming to bed, so the current situation wasn’t anything too new, aside from the fact that both you and Kya were here, instead of just one.
Perhaps it’s because Lin has been learning how to resist, or perhaps it was just because you wanted to see how Kya convinced your wife, or vice versa. It could genuinely be either given how you both fed off of each other’s beaconing.
Either way, Lin needed to do her work, totally.
Totally.
But maybe it was the way that Kya ever so gently placed her hands on Lin’s shoulders, or the way you were kissing her exposed neck.
Giving in wasn’t really a choice, really, not when the ones who love her most were being so sweet. A part of her always melted with the kindness, the genuine love and appreciation her lovers showed her, and she could never fully recover from that.
“Come on Lin, you’re tired, I can see it in the way you’re slouching,” Kya teased slightly, a small smile gracing her lips as she spoke. Her tone was soft and coaxing, likely on purpose but sometimes not, it always just depended on the person and day. Genuine concern was something Lin still wasn’t that used to, or at least when it was masked like this, like care instead of sarcasm and faux anger.
Some things took longer to change, and her mother’s way of care was something so deeply personal that she internalized that as what it meant to care. She oftentimes came off the same way as her mother, but that wasn’t something she could truly care to understand right now.
“Lin, you’re thinking too hard,” you chided gently, leaning your head over her left shoulder to get closer. You smiled at her before looking over at Kya, your love for the pair evident from the look on your face. You moved your head away from her shoulder and nodded at the waterbender.
Kya noticed, obviously, and a tired smirk lit up her face. Her hands moved from Lin’s shoulders to her cheeks, squeezing the things before cupping her face and kissing her on the lips. After a moment passed, she pulled away but remained close still.
“Come to bed, we need your stiff posture while sleeping to sleep,” Kya murmured against Lin’s lips.
If Lin wasn’t flustered before, she certainly was now.
You cooed slightly and started to pull Lin’s rolling chair from her desk. The routine was familiar now, fluster her, get her away from her work, and coax her to going back to the bedroom to sleep.
Kya finally parted fully from the flustered chief and turned to you, moving her hands once more to cup your face and kiss you as she did Lin. Her lips felt soft and warm against your own, a familiar feeling that you adored.
You parted from Kya before you did something embarrassing and raised a brow at Lin, who was still flustered but trying to hide it with her rather impressive poker face. Still, you knew your wife, and you knew exactly what she needed.
“Lin,” You called softly, hands finding hers, slightly dragging her to a standing position before Kya joined, helping you usher her to the bedroom.
Once inside, you guide her to the bed and have her sit once more. Your lips met hers as you carefully pushed her down onto the bed. Lin seemed to have gotten the hint and rolled to her usual spot, assuming her typical straight and slightly stiff sleeping position. It made you smile, and you knew Kya was gazing at the metalbender fondly as well.
Eventually, you sighed and looked at Kya, grabbing her and pulling her to the bed as well, the both of you assuming your own spots now that Lin was at least in bed. You were in the middle, halfway engulfing Lin who was on the right via clinging to her, with Kya on your left clinging to you.
And soon after they settled into the bed, Lin’s breathing smoothed out, a small signal that she was asleep as her body relaxed fully. You could feel Kya’s body relaxing once she knew Lin was asleep, and you could feel the way her lips quirked upward slightly as she also gave into sleep.
Once your wives were asleep, you allowed yourself to succumb to sleep as well, your own smile relaxing as you dozed off.
Finally, rest all throughout the house was achieved.
