Title: Wanting To Know...
Author: DaenaBenjen42
Characters: Luke, Mara, other people eventually…
Timeline: Post-The Last Command
Genre: mush, maybe some angst…
Notes: The companion story for this can be found here.
They had wanted to know.
After everything that had happened in so short a time, now that she finally had time to think, that thought kept coming back to her.
They had wanted to know. It was that simple.
To know where the place was. To do something right with that knowledge, legal or not.
It hadn’t mattered if it was legal to break her out and get past the guard, they just did what was needed. To right a wrong, no matter what.
As Mara stood on the roof looking out over Imperial City, she couldn’t help but feel good that she’d been a part of it. That she’d helped them to put it right.
And as his arms slid around her in a tight embrace, she smiled. “We did good.”
“Yes,” he answered. “We did.”
They stood there for a moment before Mara turned and looked up at him. “This thing between us?”
“What about it?”
“It feels… right and wrong at the same time.” She shrugged. “I don’t know.”
Luke took that in for a moment, then nodded. “You’re right. It does feel like it shouldn’t be. Wrong.”
“But right,” Mara pressed, her tone insistant.
Luke pulled her closer. “Definitely right.”
“I don’t want to tell anybody yet,” Mara told him suddenly. “Let’s keep it between us… see where it goes.”
“Sounds good.”
Mara let herself be pulled deeper into his arms, smiling.

Kidan: Hi! ...more it is. Thank you.
verybusy: Hi! Thank you.
RedGold: That it does... Thankyou, RedGold.
ginchy: Really? I was thinking of Pat Benatar’s “Hit me with your Best Shot!” Why, I’m not sure… Thank you, ginchy.
Jade_eyes: Done. *adds to PM list…* Thank you.
They had been standing on the roof for a little while looking out over Imperial City, when Mara reluctantly pulled herself out of his arms. “We really should go to that meeting now, you know.”
Luke nodded. “I know.”
“But you’d rather stay here.” She smiled vexingly at him.
“So would you, Mara.”
Mara scoffed. “And miss all the fun of trade agreements? Never.”
“Well, if we must…”
“…and we really must,” Mara said indulgently.
Luke chuckled. “Right… then we must.”
As they walked toward the door to the roof stairs, Mara glanced back at him. “Meet up later?”
Luke nodded. “Sounds good.”
Mara smiled once more, then adopted a serious expression. “All right. Let’s do this.”
Luke just shook his head in amusement as he followed her through the door and down the stairs.

Thanks for the PM
Now... they'll go to the meeting and act all formal & distant with each other, but underneath be all caught up in each other & sending little ... signals, and eagerly anticipating their time together. Love it!!! I love fics where their relationship starts early in the timeline. The earlier the better.

I'm sure they would rather stay there. 
I just wonder how this will all play out. I hope for good, but I'm sure you have angst somewhere up your sleeve.

Jade_eyes: It'll probably be something like that... Thank you.
ginchy: Angst? What makes you think that?  Thank you, ginchy.
RedGold: Me too...
Talon Karrde wasn't surprised to see Skywalker come into the meeting a minute behind Mara and lean against the wall. He'd noticed that they'd been a little closer after Wayland, but hadn't thought to ask why. Glancing at Mara, he noticed that she glanced toward the occupied wall every so often when someone else was speaking. Amused, Talon shook his head and leaned over to her. "Something on your mind?"
Mara turned and blinked at him. "No, why?"
"You seem a bit distracted."
Mara shook her head and shrugged nonchalantly. "It's nothing."
He didn't believe her, but let the subject rest. For now.

this dropped twenty pages! That's no place for a L/M fanfic.
Looks good. Is this related to your other fics?

RedGold: Thank you, and no, he won't.
Jedi_Liz: It could be, but... I don't wanna spoil it. Thank you, Jedi_Liz. (Twenty pages? Eek!)
Mara sighed contentedly in his arms. "We're not going to be able to keep this quiet."
"Sure we are," Luke murmurred as they looked out the window at the sunset.
"Talon already suspects something. I could see it in the way he glanced at us."
"Then he'll just have to wonder, won't he?"
Mara tilted her head back to look at him. "You're not going to let me be pessimistic, are you?"
"Nope."
"Why not?"
"No need for it. If people want to wonder, then they get to wonder for a long while."
"So says the most famous Jedi in the galaxy."
"Ha-ha."
They were quiet for a few more minutes until Mara pushed out of his arms. "Go on. Your sister was expecting you for dinner, wasn't she?"
Luke nodded. "She is." He pulled her in close again. "But I'd rather say and have dinner with you."
"Mmm... farmboy?"
"Yes?"
"You really better go."
He kissed her once, and then he left. Mara watched him go, a soft smile on her lips.

The relationship that has been created in this unique universe is so memorable, and so beautiful. It makes the heart ache. As far as I'm concerned, it's canon.~Ratna on the Noelaverse
