Han/Leia Fanfic Challenge - September 2003
Thank you to
starwarsfan68
for this challenge idea:
The premise of this challenge is this:
Leia had an old flame before she met Han. Her relationship with him could have been either platonic or sexual, but she runs into him again sometime between ANH and RotJ. What happens next?
This challenge will run through until the end of September.
When you have completed writing this challenge, please post it in this thread.
Good luck, and may the Force be with you!

RE: Han/Leia Fanfic Challenge - September 2003
I know it was my idea and that makes this kinda cheating, but oh well. Also mine is a few months post ROTJ.
This is a teaser vignette to a much longer and slightly darker post ROTJ flick. One that hold both happiness and sorrow for Han and Leia. An alternate saga, forgoing COPL. Post ROTJ 3 months. If you like this I might just post the saga on the Beyond page******
It was a night Han knew he would never forget. He and Leia were drinking, no celebrating some occasion. It was during the flight to Bespin. Before they had become lovers. They had made up many reasons over the 80-day trip to celebrate and get drunk. Why they choose to drink this time, Han couldn’t remember, but the rest was clear as a bell to him. And it was coming back to haunt him now….
“Hey Princess” Han spouted out, trying not to sound too drunk. “If I tell you about my love life will you tell me yours.”
”There isn’t many to tell.” She admitted.
“Many to tell, don’t you mean much to tell?” He jested, poking her in the side.
“Well…one. Anyway you said if you told me first, so go ahead.” She led and so Han followed. He listed his past loves and the name Bria Tharen caught Leia’s ear so she shouted “Tell me about her. You said her name differently, what was she to you?”
”I guess she was my first real heartache. She basically stabbed me in the back. Turned me and my friends in and I lost a lot because of her. I rescued her too." He bragged pointing to himself. "I guess that’s something else you two have in common.”
”What else?” She asked intrigued with the whole story.
“She was a rebel spy. And she had me.” He stated the later proudly.
“So tell me about her?” Leia prodded him, hoping he’d forget about her having to give him her story.
So Han did. All the things from how they met up to her betrayal and hearing of her death. (We know the whole thing why restate it. Besides I don’t want to get it wrong. I’m not that good with those facts.) After Han had relieved himself of the facts about his time with Bria Tharen…aside from one fact that Han felt Leia didn’t need to know, he turned to her and stated…”Your turn your holiness.”
”I only have one man in my life before you met me Han.” Leia sighed knowing she had agreed to tell him. “He was a friend first, then a beau, and now a friend again. His name is Drew Reikaan.”
”As in the general?” Han asked his curiosity peaked at hearing something he might be familiar with.
“He is Rickey’s nephew, yes.”
”Sounds interesting…proceed.”
Leia took a deep sip of her ale and began her tale. “Drew came to the palace one summer with Rickey after his parents died. My aunts and Father saw how well we got along and convinced Rickey to bring him back often. We have been friends for several years. At least 10 years. Drew is almost a year older than I. By the time we reached a permissible dating age we had already decided not to bother looking for anyone else and just started going to all my social engagements together. The last time I saw him was the day after my celebration for making senator.”
”So you really dated the guy?”
”Yes. We had chaperones, it was part of the package.” Han somehow felt a great relief in that simple fact. Somewhere in the back of his mind he had a different picture of her. To him she was as pure as the white she frequently wore. Hearing she had dated had tainted that thought until she mentioned chaperones. “I have talked to him a few times since that, he is in another cell, working undercover.”
”So you were only ever friends?”
”We were in love, young love. Life has changed and we have moved along with it.”****
Now he and Leia were settling in on Courscant and their wedding is days away. Leia’s final guest list had one new name…Drew Reikaan.
************
Hope you like it. I mentioned Han's past love too.

My entry! I do
try
Set before ESB.
The Date
The Falcon landed on the rebel base with a grace that would surprise those that did not know the ship or her Captain. Han Solo and Chewie were returning from picking up munitions that the rebels badly needed in the fight against the Empire. General Rieekan and Luke Skywalker waited near the ramp as Han exited.
"Did you have any problems, Captain Solo?" the General asked with concern. He had warned the smuggler about the extra danger that this run might have. In typical fashion, Han's only response had been to ask for more credits.
"Nah, nothing me and Chewie couldn't handle," Han replied casually. "Those boxes are heavy. We'll need some help unloading."
"No problem, Solo," Rieekan replied. "Thank you for making this run. The Rebellion appreciates it."
"I'd rather have the appreciation of a certain royal, if ya get my drift," Han smiled at the General.
General Rieekan and Luke exchanged a strange look before Rieekan cleared his throat and said, "I'll go get you help with the unloading." He quickly turned and walked off.
Han looked at his young friend. "Hey, kid," he greeted Luke enthusiastically. "What was that all about?"
Luke shuffled his feet and looked down. "Hi, Han. What was what all about?"
Han frowned. "That little look you and the General just gave each other when I mentioned her worshipfulness," Solo elaborated.
"Ah, nothing," Luke said sullenly.
"Nothing? Come on and spill it, kid. Is the Princess alright?" Han was getting a little bit worried, but he covered his words with a smirk. He didn't want anyone to think he actually
cared.
"She's fine, Han, she's..." Luke trailed off, not knowing how to say this without sounding whiney. So he just sighed and looked at his friend. "She's on a date."
Han was dumbfounded. For a few moments he could not think of anything to say. "A
date
?" he finally sputtered. "With a
man
?"
Luke did not look any happier than Han. "Yeah. That's the way it usually works, Han."
"Well, ya don't have to be sarcastic," Han replied suddenly irritated beyond words.
Why
he felt so irritated was something he did not want to think too much about.
"Oh,
you
should talk!" Luke snapped back.
"With who?"
"What?" Luke asked.
"Who did the Ice Princess decide was worthy of her attention?"
"Some old boyfriend from when she was about fifteen or sixteen years old," Luke mumbled. "Her first love, or so she claims."
Han's eyes grew wide with disbelief. "Love? She loves this guy?" Han spun on his heels and began stalking back up the ramp of his ship.
"Han!" Luke yelled after him.
"What?" Solo snapped as he turned around abruptly.
"Where are you going?"
"To get drunk. Wanna join me?"
Luke hesitated for a second, then replied, "Sure. Sounds like the best idea I've heard all day."
************
The next morning.
Leia cautiously made her way up the ramp of The Falcon. She nearly jumped out of her skin when Chewie rounded the corner and almost collided with her. "Chewie!" she gasped. "You startled me."
Chewie growled his agreement, even though the Princess could not understand his exact words.
"Have you seen Luke or Han?" Leia asked the Wookiee. Chewie wuffed his amusement and lead the Princess into the hold of the ship. Both men lay sprawled on the cold floor snoring, with empty bottles of alcohol strewn about.
Leia put her hands on her hips and frowned. Han Solo was definitely a bad influence on Luke. She turned to the Wookiee.
"Why are they both so sloshed?" she said, the disapproval in her voice evident. Chewie shrugged his broad shoulders and left the room briefly. When he returned he was carrying two tall glasses of cold water. He handed the Princess a glass and pointed to both men. "I'll take the scruffy one, if you don't mind," she smiled at Chewie, understanding. Chewie nodded and tossed the water into Luke's face, while Leia did the same to the Corellian. Both men instantly sat up, gasping in shock at the rude awakening.
"What the hell?" Han shouted as he struggled to his feet.
"Hey!" Luke sat up, wiping water from his face.
Leia and Chewie both burst into laughter.
"Keep it down," Han moaned, holding his head. He wished the room would stop spinning around. "Why did you have to do that?"
"There didn't seem to be any faster way to wake you two bums," Leia said, still laughing as Han glared at her. Han knew he was mad at her, but at the moment, he couldn't remember why.
"How was your date, Leia?" Luke asked as he carefully stood.
Oh yeah...
That
was why he was mad at her. "Did your old boyfriend get some action last night, Princess?" Han goaded.
Leia stopped laughing and gave Solo her best frosty stare. "Just because that is your version of a date, Solo, doesn't mean it's mine." She turned to Luke. "Is that the reason you both got drunk? Because I had a date?"
"No!" Han said quickly.
"Yes." Luke admitted at the same time.
"Good goddess! You two are unbelievable. You got drunk because I had dinner with an old friend?"
Luke had the grace to look embarrassed. "General Rieekan told me he was someone you loved."
"Wait a second, kid," Han objected. "You told me Leia said it was an old love."
"No, that's not what I meant...." Luke started to say.
Leia started laughing again. "He is an old friend. I never loved Wade! And incidentally, his
wife
was on this date, too," she said, wiping tears of laughter away. "I can't believe this. You two are jealous!" With that, the Princess turned and started to leave.
As she walked down the ramp, she heard Solo yell after her, "I am NOT jealous!" All Han and Luke heard was the Princess's loud laughter in response.
THE END
