Author-TizTiz
Genre-Romance, friendship, angst
Characters-Han, Leia, Luke
Summary-Leia, Han and Luke each write a diary about their lives in the Rebellion and their feelings about each other.

Note-This is my first attempt at fanfiction. The first chapter is a little bit short and is a sort of introduction but if I get some replies I will update soon.
***
Dear Datapad,
As a young girl of eight years old I used to keep a diary. Of course back in those days the entries mainly consisted of descriptions of games with my friends in the palace and details about my private lessons given to me by my tutor. Nowadays my life is much more eventful given the fact that I am a leading member of an illegal movement which rebels against the tyranny of the Empire. In fact my daily schedule is now so hectic that I decided to fall back into my old habit and record details about my day in this datapad so I can review any important meetings. Datapad, you were my constant companion when I was still a carefree young princess and now you are once again my only confidant now I am a responsible but lonely Rebellion leader.
I guess that's the other reason I am writing this entry. I have never been in more need of a friend than I am right now. Almost all of my original friends were wiped out in one go when the Death Star fired on Alderaan. Once I had so many friends and companions that the number would be too great to count but now I am alone and talking to a datapad. I guess that says a lot about my mental stability at the moment.
Since Alderaan was destroyed I have acquaintances but no real friends. Nobody I could ever discuss my old life with. The only person I would even consider thinking of as a friend is Luke. Luke Skywalker, the young and naive boy from Tatooine who was plucked straight from his Uncle's moisture farm and into the chaos of the Death Star rescue and the Rebellion. Although Luke is naive and idealistic, which is no doubt a result of his sheltered childhood, he is also understanding and kind hearted. Although I know that Luke would offer me a shoulder to cry on when the grief over losing all my family and friends hits me, I still cannot bring myself to open up to him. Maybe it's because I could not bear to see the sympathy in his bright blue eyes.
Han Solo is the complete opposite of Luke. He is selfish, egoistic and he only ever thinks about himself. I suppose this is not completely true since he has stayed with the Rebellion for over two months but he still insists that he is leaving any day soon. I don't know why the idea of him leaving makes me feel so strange. Perhaps it's because he has became such a regular part of my life. He teases me, irratates me and angers me and yet it is nice to have somebody to banter with. Everybody else treats me as if I could break down in tears at any moment.
Apparently this diary, which I started because I wanted to record important meetings, has turned into pages of my ramblings about my own self pity and about exactly why I care if Han Solo leaves the Rebellion. I don't know how I went so off track but it's not as if I care about him or anything. The thought of anybody considering Han Solo a friend makes me want to laugh. Han could never care about anybody.
Leia Organa
Dear Datapad,
I have no idea why I am talking to a datapad. I mean talking to a chunk of metal that can't even hear you is nearly as crazy as trying to have a decent conversation with Threepio. I guess it's because I never had a diary to write in as a kid. Or maybe it's because I need somewhere to write down my thoughts so I can try and make sense of them. I need to figure out exactly what is preventing me from packing up my stuff and leaving this pitiful excuse for a rebellion. I mean it shouldn't be that difficult, I've deserted plenty of other people and organisations without so much as a backward glance. So what's so different about this time?
Well there's the kid. The kid who still believes there is good in every single person in the Galaxy. Even selfish smugglers like me, who try their damn hardest not to care about anybody except their own sorry hides. The trouble is despite trying my hardest not to I do care about the kid. I mean how would the kid cope without me to look out for him? He seems to have a real knack for running headlong into trouble (hey, he learnt from the master) and he wouldn't last one minute on his own.
Another person I kinda feel responsible for is the Princess. Even though she is a pain in the ass with her snippy comments and sharp retorts I can't help caring about what happens to her. I mean after risking my own life to rescue her from the Death Star (I didn't even get so much as a thankyou) I wouldn't really want her to be killed just two months later. It would mean I went through all that stress and pressure on the Death Star for absolutely no reason. Besides she's kind of cute. When she smiles (which isn't at all often actually) her whole face lights up and she looks radiant. None of that matters really though. Why would I go through the effort of seducing a snobby princess who is also a workaholic when I could have my pick of any of the other women in the Rebellion? She's not worth the trouble. I wish there wasn't a part of my brain telling me perhaps she is worth the trouble.
Now I have gotta go and work on the Falcon but I guess I will be writing to you again soon. Not that it will matter to you either way since you can't understand a single word I'm saying.
Han Solo
Dear Datapad,
When I was a young boy on Tatooine I always wanted a diary. But I sort of figured that it would be pointless since my life on the moisture farm was not exactly what you would call eventful. Now I am light years away from Tatooine and although I lived on the farm barely three months ago it seems more like decades ago. So much has happened since then. I have just began to realise how much Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru shielded me from the perils of everyday life. They would be horrified if they could see me now, being hunted by the Empire and risking my life everyday.
When I was still a farmboy on Tatooine I never dreamt that one day my best friends would be a pessimistic smuggler and a beautiful princess. Han Solo tries to pretend that he doesn't care about anybody else but he can't fool me. If he really was nothing more than a mercenary he would never have returned to blast that TIE off my back at the Battle of Yavin. Han has started to behave like an older brother lately and I know he feels as if he needs to watch out for me. I know that Han thinks I am a kid who needs protecting and it used to annoy me but I can't deny the fact that I feel a lot safer knowing he is watching my back.
Leia is another person who I have started to think of as one of my best friends. In those first few weeks after Han and I saved Leia on the Death Star I had a crush the size of Tatooine on her. She was every boy's fantasy in my opinion, a wealthy and beautiful princess. However now I know that Leia and I make much better friends than we would a couple. Han and Leia are a different matter altogether. When they argue you can almost see the electricity between them. Han may think I am naive and oblivious but even I can see how much they care about each other.
Luke Skywalker

I enjoyed all three, actually, but you really captured Han.
Dear Datapad,

That's our Han!

Yeah, that's Han and Luke all right!
Another person I kinda feel responsible for is the Princess. Even though she is a pain in the ass with her snippy comments and sharp retorts I can't help caring about what happens to her. I mean after risking my own life to rescue her from the Death Star (I didn't even get so much as a thankyou) I wouldn't really want her to be killed just two months later. It would mean I went through all that stress and pressure on the Death Star for absolutely no reason. 
If I had to make any suggestions, it's much easier to read a computer screen (for me, anyway), if your paragraphs were to be a bit shorter in length.
For myself, I always "preview" before posting to see what the final screen version looks like because I can't tell just by looking at it in Word.

Each "voice" rings true and strikes the perfect tone for this time. Luke was sweet, Leia was poignant and Han was ... totally himself. Please do continue and welcome!!! This is a brilliant beginning.

Chapter two
Dear Datapad,
I am now officially twenty one years of age. I know I should feel like letting my hair down for once and I know that I should be in the mood for celebrating. However it feels like an enormous black cloud is hovering over my head and darkening my mood. To be specific this black cloud is called Alderaan.
How can I celebrate when just six months ago an entire planet was blasted apart as if it was of no more importance than a speck of dust on Vader's helmet than needed to be brushed away? How can I celebrate when all of the people who mattered to me were senselessly murdered by a vindictive Grand Moff on some kind of twisted power kick? For some reason I don't think something as trivial as a birthday should interrupt my grieving.
When I ventured into the main corridor to go to a council meeting this morning almost every person I passed offered their congradulations. How could they ever understand that they were causing me so much pain that it felt as if my heart was being put through a paper shredder just by uttering a few simple words?
It hurts me so much to know that none of the people who I really want to see will ever be present for my birthday ever again. That is why I am currently sitting in my room alone on the one day I should be truly happy. The ghost of Alderaan will forever haunt me until the day I join my loved ones.
***
I have heard people say that when they have a hangover it feels as though their head is splitting into two pieces and the pounding in their head is louder than a drum. Now I know these people are not exaggerating.
Last night when I was brooding in my room my com bleeped. However it was not Mon Mothma summoning me to yet another council meeting. It was Luke.
"Leia. It's your birthday today you shouldn't be sat in your room. Rogue Squadron have set up a little party downstairs and me and Han are going to drop in. You can come with us."
"Thanks but I think I am just going to stay in and review some figures."
"Leia, forget the figures. Please come with us. After all it's not everyday you turn twenty one. Besides you know what Han's like when he gets drunk. I'll never be able to carry him up to his room on his own."
Even though the image of Luke which was projected by the com was barely a quarter of the size of the real Luke I could still see the pleading look in his baby blue eyes. Besides even in my current depressive state I couldn't suppress a grin at Luke's sly dig at Han. Luke's grin mirrored my own when he realised that he had won me around with minimal amounts of pleading. Luke was getting far too good at persuading me to do things I would prefer not to do.
"Meet you in the main corridor at nine. Don't be late."
"Why do I feel like I am going to regret this?"
***
That conversation with Luke is the last thing I remember about last night.
I vaguely remember downing far more alcoholic drinks than I have probably consumed in my entire twenty one years in this galaxy. I also vaguely remember stumbling back to my room like a disorientated bantha, with a pair of strong arms around me to prevent me from falling flat on my face. Arms which were clad in a plain white shirt and hands which felt rough and uneven as a result of using a blaster far too many times in his far too adventurous life.
Maybe it's a blessing in disguise that I can't remember last night.
Leia Organa
Dear Datapad,
Who knew the princess knew how to let her hair down? Last night was probably the first time I have ever seen her act like a girl her age should. Let me tell you I have never seen anybody down that many drinks in such a short period of time. She could give me a run for my money in a drinking contest and it's not often I admit a woman (a woman who considers writing up casualty reports fun no less) is up to my drinking standards.
As a matter of fact last night turned out to be full of surprises. Who knew the princess could look so stunning? She wore an alluring white dress (does she even own any other colour, the woman probably has a less colourful wardrobe than Darth Vader) with a decent sized slit that reached past her knees and her hair was in an elegant coil. Let me assure you that a large proportion of men's jaws dropped when the princess entered the room.
Throughout the night nearly every single man in the Rebellion requested a dance with the princess. At first she danced as if she was attending a formal ball rather than a small informal gathering. However as she got more drunk she appeared to feel more daring.
Damn, the way she danced as the night progressed was so sexy and enticing that I found myself wishing that she would dance with me. Then it occured to me that she probably wasn't plastered enough to accept a dance with me just yet. So I just stood and drunk in the sight of her.
After a while I realised that Luke was smirking at me. Didn't the kid have anything better to do? He comes to a party and then spends what could have been valuable drinking time staring at me.
"Are you just gonna stand there looking smug or do you actually want something?"
"I knew you liked her."
The kid continued to smirk as if he was in a damn smirking contest. By now I had consumed a fair number of drinks myself so it took me a while to catch on that the 'her' the kid was talking about was in fact the princess.
"I don't. I'm just making sure no sleaze bags try to hit on her. She's so drunk people are bound to take advantage of her."
"Right. Of course you were."
Luke grinned in his infuriating way for a while longer then disappeared into the throng of people. Sometimes I wish I had never entered that cantina on Tatooine. There is nothing I despise more than smart ass kids who think they are right all of the time. Even when their assumptions do happen to be correct.
When the princess became incapable of walking without tripping over her own feet I knew it was time to intervene. Her hair was beginning to escape from its tight coil and her eyes were glazed over due to tiredness and too much alcohol.
"Come on princess, it's way past your bedtime. I'll help you back to your room."
"Leave me alone Flyboy. I want to get drunk."
"You already are drunk."
Don't ever say I'm not a nice man. Only a nice man would half carry an extremely drunk princess back to her sleeping quarters and place her on her bed. Any other man would have probably taken advantage of such a beautiful woman. However because I am such a nice man I simply tucked her under her duvet and exited the room. Not that I'm saying I didn't consider taking advantage of her or anything.
Han Solo
Dear Datapad,
I am slightly ashamed to admit that the party last night was probably the wildest party I have ever been to. Han would probably scoff at me if he ever heard me say that. I suppose that my opinion doesn't mean very much since my experience of parties is extremely limited. Well since I lived on Tatooine for the first twenty years of my life that is not exactly hard to believe.
I'm glad I persuaded Leia to go to the party, I think that it was probably good for her to forget about her responsibilities to the Rebellion for a while. I was starting to worry about her as I could tell that she wasn't getting half as much sleep as she should be.
When Leia was on the dance floor I could see straight away that Han could not take his eyes off her. He denied it when I confronted him but I think that he is falling for her. Not that he will ever admit because the man is as stubborn as a bantha. I find it slightly ironic that the man who once said the only thing he cared about is money is falling for the most selfless woman I have ever met.
Not so long ago I would have been insanely jealous of Han. After all I'm just a farmboy from an uncivilized desert planet and Han has travelled to nearly every planet in the galaxy and can charm women better than I can ever hope to. Now however I know that Han and Leia would bring out the best in each other if they would only be nice to each other for more than ten seconds.
I think that it is my responsibility as Han's best friend to try and make the two of them see sense. However I don't quite think that Han is going to listen to advice from somebody who he considers to be an unexperienced kid. It will probably be a better idea to try and talk to Leia. Operation knock some common sense into two bantha brains starts tomorrow.

RE: Dear Datapad (H/L, Luke) Post ANH

A/N- Thankyou to everybody for reviewing. The next chapter is sort of transitional. It shows how H/L's feelings for each other are starting to change so not a lot actually happens, lol. It's also kind of short, but I promise that the next update will be longer.
Chapter three
Dear Datapad,
Well I've finally recovered from that sithly hangover. Mon Mothma was certainly not impressed when I turned up for yesterday's meeting resembling death warmed up. I suppose she thinks that essential members of the Alliance should act responsibly rather than partying all night long and drinking more than a third class smuggler in a seedy cantina.
I seriously considered telling her that I was in my current predicament through no fault of my own. After all if Luke hadn't insisted on me going to the party in the first place I would not have felt like my head was about to explode. However I know Luke didn't mean to cause me so much grief so I decided to let the matter rest for the time being.
Speaking of Luke, he has been acting in a very peculiar manner today. For some reason he seems to want to talk to me about Han constantly. I found it particularly hard to concentrate on writing up a report with Luke trying to explain to me exactly what Han Solo's good qualities are. Also Luke became visibly annoyed when I pointed out that Han Solo does not even possess any good qualities. Why do I feel as though the farmboy is trying to be devious?
Luke is not the only person who has been acting strange today. For some reason which I cannot fathom my thoughts seem to constantly wander in the direction of Han Solo. Throughout the briefing today it was as if a magnet was pulling my eyes towards him. I could not prevent myself from thinking how attractive his eyes look when the light reflects on them so they are the colour of warm honey.
Obviously the over consumption of alcohol has muddled my normally coherant brain cells and consequently given me the thoughts of a particularly hormonal teenager. Why would I even consider any type of involvement with Han Solo, who is arrogant and downright irratating? A tiny part of my overtired brain is insisting that Han is also brave, inventive and extremely handsome but this part of me is clearly in the minority.
Leia Organa
Dear Datapad,
I seem to have developed some kind of obsession with a certain snobby princess. Is it even possible to become obsessed with a woman? I guess if you can be an alcoholic you can just as easily become a princessaholic. I have never been obsessed with any woman in my entire life. In fact the situation tended to be the other way around in the past. I can't really blame them I guess, who wouldn't be attracted to somebody as handsome and downright charming as myself?
Well anybody apart from the princess. I kinda figured out a long time ago that Leia Organa is not like any other woman I have ever met. Well I suppose most of the other women I know are attractive dancers and barmaids. I had never met a princess before I met Leia.
I suppose I'm sorta glad about that since this particular princess seems to get her kicks out of making my life miserable. However even when the princess is yelling at me I still can't deny how beautiful she is. Actually the way her eyes shine when she is angry make her look even more beautiful.
During that unnecessarily long briefing this afternoon which seemed to drag on for an eternity (I seem to spend half my life in those type of briefings nowadays, another reason why I should never have gotten involved with this damn Rebellion) my eyes appeared to be glued to the princess. Her wonderfully sleek hair seemed to gleam under the bright lights in the conference room. At one point I could have sworn that the princess was staring right back at me but perhaps that's just wishful thinking. Or it could be that the trauma of risking my own neck for the Rebellion is finally getting to me and I'm starting to crack up. Yes, that's probably what has happened.
I wonder what my old smuggling buddies would say if they ever heard that Han Solo had gone soft over a woman. They probably wouldn't believe their ears. I don't blame them, at times I can't believe how much of my time I seem to spend thinking about her.
My time could be spent doing something much more valuable and useful. Like repairing the Falcon for instance or actually earning some money to pay off Jabba (the big slug's gonna kill me when he finally catches up with me).
All these ramblings about the princess are kinda a waste of time anyway. I doubt the princess would even dream about slumming it with a penniless smuggler like me. She probably wants to marry a rich prince who can shower her with diamond rings or some type of pretty boy who spends longer in the bathroom on a morning than her. Somehow I don't think I am gonna meet her impossibly high standards.
In fact the princess is probably incapable of falling for anybody at all. I'm almost positive that she has a heart that is made of solid ice that can never be melted. I have never admitted to anybody that there is a woman in the galaxy who is immune to the charms of Han Solo. Like I said before the princess is not like other women.
Han Solo
Dear Datapad,
I think I may have failed miserably in my attempt to set up Han and Leia. Perhaps I'm not cut out to be a matchmaker after all. When you lived on a planet where there are approximately five females in a twenty mile radius for twenty years it's kind of hard to know how to deal with women.
Leia was oblivious to all my subtle hints about what a perfect suitor Han would make. Maybe I'm not sly or devious enough to trick somebody as intelligent or as stubborn as Leia into falling for a man she pretends to despise. I sort of felt guilty about trying to mislead her anyway.
During the briefing this afternoon it was extremely obvious that Han was paying more attention to the princess than the meeting itself. I wonder if he has realised how much he cares about her yet or if he is still in denial. I care about Han and I care about Leia but sometimes I have an undeniable urge to bang their heads together. Maybe that would knock some common sense into them. On Tatooine I saw banthas that aren't as stubborn or as pig headed as my two best friends are now.
Maybe I will try and talk to Han tomorrow. To be honest it can't go much worse than my 'talk' with Leia.

Awesome update!! Loved it!! Luke playing matchmaker was just too cute! This is so well-written and true to their characters! I'm loving it!
