I’m on Coruscant for the farce that is the Imperial Senate, knowing how precarious my position is as I work secretly with the Rebellion. I’m told that there is a new prisoner, thrown in jail without a trial for treason and dissent, and I can’t help but want to see him with my own eyes. To see if he’s truly figured out the evils of the Empire.

“You’re a cute boy, and. I’m just a teenage girl,” I say, batting my lashes, half joking, half serious.

[going_solo]

“A very cute teenage girl,” I correct; wild tor her lashes.

[haveyourmoments]

“You think I’m cute?” I ask, living for his compliments. No one ever treats me like a normal girl with normal girl feelings.

[going_solo]

“I think… I think you’re beautiful,” I say with more confidence than I’ve ever offered a girl, woman, whatever, before.

[haveyourmoments]

I know that I blush more than I ever have before, even the time that I walked in on my father holding court wearing my fuzzy Loth Cat slippers.

"You don't think you're beautiful, Leia? Has no one ever shown you a mirror?"

[haveyourmoments]

“It feels like…like you see me as a person, so hearing you say that feels different. I can’t ever be sure of people when so many of them just want something from me.”

I hesitate just for a moment before kissing her again, murmuring against her lips: "All I want is you."

[haveyourmoments]

The way my knees go absolutely weak at his words is probably a little bit ridiculous, but I hold onto him tighter and kiss him back, thrilled by him.

[going_solo]

I grin, kissing her over and over until breathlessness forces me to pull back.

[haveyourmoments]

“You look happy,” I say, smiling up at him, thinking how cute he looks when he’s been kissed.

[going_solo]

“That may have to do with the fact that I am happy,” I smile. “Happier than I’ve been in… well, long before I was captured.”

[haveyourmoments]

“I’m happy too,” I tell him. “Even if there is a walking carpet in my bed…”

[going_solo]

"If it makes you feel better, he keeps his hands to himself and he almost never sheds..."

[haveyourmoments]

I burst out laughing, deciding then and there that his sense of humor is one of my favorite things about him. I wrap my arms around his waist, looking up at him. “Do you keep your hands to yourself?”

[going_solo]

“That depends on whether you want me to or not,” I say, seriously, because I want her to know I’m not any kind of predator.

[haveyourmoments]

“I want to fall asleep while you hold me,” I say, burrowing against him.

[going_solo]

“Then we better find a bed that’s not a bench and doesn’t have a Wookiee in it,” I muse, holding her close.

[haveyourmoments]

“Come on then,” I say, grabbing his hand and lacing my fingers through his as I pull him towards an empty cabin.

[going_solo]

I’m practically giddy as I follow, surprised at this turn of events.

[haveyourmoments]

“We’re going to sleep, you nerfherder,” I stress to him, even if I’m fighting back my own giddy smile.

[going_solo]

“With the prettiest girl in the galaxy, I call that a win,” I say.

[haveyourmoments]

I laugh, stretching up to ruffle his hair before I give him a soft kiss. “Let’s go to bed?”

[going_solo]

“As you wish,” I say, kissing her back.

[haveyourmoments]

I tug off my boots and curl up with him under the blanket, tucking my head underneath his chin with a soft sigh.
