I find it a little hard to believe that someone would feel that it would be a chore to "say thank you" to Han. I do, however, feel sorry for her in the constant fight against his past.

Golden_Jedi Most definitely worth it! 
Kevin_Solo Patience is difficult, especially when the heart's involved. 
PonyTricks Yes, it's huge for Han. Now let's see how things progress from there! 
dm1 Eventually. Yes. He will.
Alexis_Wingstar Well, they sort of danced around each other for a while before they started dating too.
MsLanna A drawer is a big deal.
Blue_Milkshake I want a patience fairy! 
BigFatty No matter how adorable they are, they can still annoy you! 
Entry #42
I’ve discovered that there are advantages to having a drawer in Han’s place. The best one is that I could give him a drawer in my place without it being weird.
At first, he just kind of stared at me, his mouth hanging open a bit (which made me want to kiss him), as if he hadn’t even thought about me returning the offer. Then he gave me that lop-sided grin (that also made me want to kiss him) and accepted.
My hero.
For once, I’m not even being sarcastic. I know, who would have thought? I mean, the odds of me setting aside my usual sarcasm are astronomical. But my Corellian is teaching me not to play the odds. I’m certainly not when I bet on him falling in love with me.
Anyway, that means even when he’s not here, I’ve got something of him left. I’d die before I admitted this to him, but when he’s not here, I take out his shirt and I wrap it around me. It smells like he does, clean and spicy.
Anyway, I’m learning more about him. It was easy figuring out what his favorite ale was, and his favorite whiskey. He likes games of a chance, but it doesn’t take a genius to come to that conclusion about a Corellian.
It took me a little longer to figure out that he loves my soft tagana silk sheets, but he’s too embarrassed to say so. I guess he figures that interferes with his reputation as a big time smuggler and tough guy. I won’t tell anyone. Let the man keep his little secrets.
He also likes hot chocolate, but there’s something about that. He got this funny look on his face when I mentioned it. Then he said something about acquiring the taste from a friend. Now, normally I would have assumed he meant her, but that wasn’t the impression I got. I think he meant an actual friend. Who would have guessed?
I’ve learned that Chewie is more than his best friend. Han finally told me that he’d once saved the Wookiee’s life and since then, Chewbacca has followed him around (apparently whether Han wanted him to or not) and watches over him.
Which is a good thing, because Han could use some watching over.
I wonder if Chewie will mind if we share the job? Maybe I should talk to him about it. When the time comes.
I guess I’ll know I’m really a part of Han’s life when Chewie has a drawer at my place too.
And a big, Wookiee-sized bed for when he decides to visit.
I might need a bigger apartment.

 I almost fell off my chair reading that.
What was that about setting aside her sarcasm for a while? well, didn't alst long, did it.
Then he said something about acquiring the taste from a friend.
Would that be Luke? 
Maybe he'll have an appearince some day? Maybe together with Chewie?
This was such a great read after a hard day at work.
Thanks so much.

Good to see this update! 
So they've both got to the 'own drawer in the other's place' stage? 
I’ve discovered that there are advantages to having a drawer in Han’s place. The best one is that I could give him a drawer in my place without it being weird.
At first, he just kind of stared at me, his mouth hanging open a bit (which made me want to kiss him), as if he hadn’t even thought about me returning the offer. Then he gave me that lop-sided grin (that also made me want to kiss him) and accepted.
My hero.
I can understand her feeling that way after that 'lob-sided grin'.
I expected her to say that she had an attraction for his clothes:
Anyway, that means even when he’s not here, I’ve got something of him left. I’d die before I admitted this to him, but when he’s not here, I take out his shirt and I wrap it around me. It smells like he does, clean and spicy.
You've certainly got it bad! Does he have a favourite aftershave, I wonder?
So he likes her sheets? Nice to see that he can admit to that:
It took me a little longer to figure out that he loves my soft tagana silk sheets, but he’s too embarrassed to say so. I guess he figures that interferes with his reputation as a big time smuggler and tough guy. I won’t tell anyone. Let the man keep his little secrets.
Also his love of chocolate:

Now, normally I would have assumed he meant her, but that wasn’t the impression I got. I think he meant an actual friend. Who would have guessed?
What I particularly like about this character is that she not only recognises the importance of Han's friendship with Chewbacca, but fully accepts it. She's certainly not the controlling type. 
I’ve learned that Chewie is more than his best friend. Han finally told me that he’d once saved the Wookiee’s life and since then, Chewbacca has followed him around (apparently whether Han wanted him to or not) and watches over him.
Which is a good thing, because Han could use some watching over.

Good for her!  Well written, Vader!

Yup, Chewie should definitely get a drawer of his own, for what, I'm not sure, though! Maybe his fur brush and whatever he uses to keep it in good shape!
Aww, sad moment about the hot chocolate; really makes us see the side effects of Leia's dumping him...

Maybe Chewie could keep his spare crossbow bolts in his drawer?

I really liked this part. It's a great illustration of how close they are.

I adore that Chewie has his own space in Ynna's apartment. I'm always excited to see an update and for the chance to know your OC better. She's the only allowable replacement for a romantic interest for Han in my book.

MsLanna Yes, that would be Luke!
Golden_Jedi Progress indeed!
Kevin_Solo Love Han, love Chewie!
PonyTricks It would certainly be difficult to maintain the same friendship, given the circumstances.
dm1 His holos of his mate have to go somewhere.
Blue_Milkshake And a brush.
Alexis_Wingstar Glad you liked it.
alhana_antilles When you like a man's friends, it's true love.
Jade_eyes Sure! No problem.
BigFatty It's still weird to think of Han without Leia.
First, a confession. I've had this post written for months. Literally. Oops. And second, a comment about a straw in this post came straight from the genius of Gina, and I’d like to give credit where credit is due!
Entry #43
Okay, I admit it. I don’t understand men. I never have, and I never will.
I’m not sure men understand themselves. In fact, I’m fairly certain that they don’t.
You know in every relationship there comes a moment of truth – a test that you know you have to pass or it’s all over?
We just had ours.
The jury is still out on whether we passed or not. I didn’t kill him, so I guess I should be grateful for that. So should he.
He came really close to getting strangled, let me tell you.
See, the problem was illness.
Han got sick.
Han did not want to admit to being sick.
Han was whiny.
Han was cranky.
Han was getting on Ynna’s nerves.
Han is lucky that he didn’t get thrown off the balcony.
One minute, he’s telling me that he’s not sick (despite all evidence to the contrary) and the next he’s sprawled on the couch and whining for something to drink. With ice. Crushed ice. In a tall glass. Oh, but not too much ice. And not juice. Nothing alcoholic. (He was mistaken there, I had gotten out the booze for me since I could see where this was going) And he wanted a bendy straw.
I wanted to bend his neck – or twist it in a knot.
Chewie, the coward, pretended that he had urgent business elsewhere. Anywhere. I’ll get him back. Even if it takes me decades.
Han’s throat was sore, but he was hungry. What could I make that would both taste good and not irritate his throat? Pudding? No. He didn’t want pudding. Frozen cream treat? No, that didn’t sound good. Finally, he just pouted about it while I enjoyed a nice bowl of soup.
After watching me eat, he finally told me he’d try and keep it down. I said thank you, but I think my sarcasm escaped him at the time.
He watched a smashball game, all the while sniffling and sneezing and looking generally miserable. Then his team lost, which only made him sulk even more.
He was running a fever, which made him hot, then cold. Then hot. Then cold. And with every change he had to complain. I think I broke the thermostat resetting it so many times.
Then he had a headache. And his eyes hurt.
Then his skin hurt. And his hair.
And then he got really cranky. I didn’t know it could get worse but it did.
So while he sat there and looked absolutely miserable, I hovered. As annoying and exasperating as he was, I just wanted to hug him close and tell him it would be all right. He looked more like a little boy than a hero of the New Republic, and to be honest he sounded more like one too.
Is it sad that I found him absolutely adorable in his crankiness? Or that his red nose and three days worth of scruffy beard made me want to wrap him up in a blanket and hold him?
Now he’s feeling better, thank all the gods.
I’ve got a tickle in my throat.
That can’t be good.

Don't we all know that kind of situation.
I just hope han will be nice to her in turn, too. And not call Chewie back and steak away.
