[haveyourmoments]

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.

“I love you, Leia,” I tell her, kissing the top of her head.

[haveyourmoments]

“Promise me you’ll be here when I wake up?” I ask, burying my face in his neck, exhausted.

[going_solo]

“Even at the risk of being flayed by your parents,” I tease softly, nuzzling her.

[haveyourmoments]

“Just have to make sure we get our clothes back on…” I mumble, half asleep.

[going_solo]

“I never did like clothes…” I say with a soft sigh. “Get some sleep, Princess. I’ll make sure there’s no trouble.”

[haveyourmoments]

I fall asleep in his arms, entirely content and in love, dreaming of a future with him.

I cover her with a warm blanket and kiss her cheek before giving into sleep myself.

[going_solo]

I awaken before her, kissing her all over before I gently change her into pajamas and myself the clothes from the night before.

[haveyourmoments]

I grumble softly as he dresses me, exhausted and still worn out from the night before. “Can you hold me please?”

[going_solo]

“Of course, Leia,” I say, wrapping my arms around her.

[haveyourmoments]

I tuck my head under his chin, feeling sore and a little bit needy, hugging him close. “Did you sleep okay?”

[going_solo]

“Like a dream.” I tell her, and I mean it. “Softest bed I’ve ever slept on.”

[haveyourmoments]

“Good, I’m glad,” I murmur, nuzzling him. “I feel like I could sleep for days.”

[going_solo]

“I’m not opposed to that,” I say, smiling against her skin.

[haveyourmoments]

“I’m sure you’re not,” I laugh, reaching up to ruffle his hair playfully.

[going_solo]

I smile, leaning into her touch with a happy little sigh.

Then there’s the knock on the door.

[haveyourmoments]

“Oh, you have to hide!” I whisper, immediately panicked. Not for getting found out, exactly, but for his sake, not wanting them to get the wrong idea.

[going_solo]

“I - okay,” I say, immediately looking at the closets before lunging toward one and hiding in the middle of the clothes.

[haveyourmoments]

I quickly kick his boots under the bed before climbing back in bed. “Come in!”

[going_solo]

I hold my breath as her mother tells her they’re having a feast of a breakfast and to be in the dining area within thirty minutes.

[haveyourmoments]

I tell her that sounds lovely, and that I’ll pass along the message to Han. After what seems like an eternity the door clicks shut behind her and I exhale in relief.

[going_solo]

I nearly fall out of the closest, covering my mouth as I try not to laugh.

[haveyourmoments]

“There’s no way she didn’t figure it out,” I say, laughing also as I reach for him.

[going_solo]

“So I’ll be what’s served for breakfast, then?” I ask, raising my brow.

[haveyourmoments]

“Aww, I’ll protect you, baby,” I say sweetly, pulling him close.
