    It's my birthday and I'll post if I want to..... I want to!



    During dinner, it finally dawned on Leia that Han was jealous of Luke regarding her. She was surprised because she hadn?t seen any evidence of it before now. Maybe here and there, but she had played that off as Han?s ego in general, more than anything specifically related to her. The revelation of a new aspect in her ambivalent relationship with Solo sparked something inside of her. Whether that spark was a good or bad thing, she wasn?t sure. Suddenly, she made a decision because of it though. Rather than examine anything too closely, she still knew it was the right one.




    Leia could hear Solo before she saw him. His vociferous frustration formed a trail through the Falcon for her to follow straight to the annoyed captain. This was not the mood in which she had hoped to find him, nevertheless this was the time. She approached quietly, yet Solo sensed her behind him.

    ?How was your date?? he cracked without looking up from his work.

    ?Do you still want to go to Ord Mantell?? With her head bowed, the question was softly spoken to the air in front of her.

    Caught completely off guard by her tone, Solo stopped what he was doing. It was gently quiet, yet not resigned in any way as he might have expected. Still, he didn?t turn around.

    ?Yeah.?

    ?Why?? Her tone continued in with its mildness, although the question had a distinct tentative quality to it.

    Picking up a red work rag, Solo absentmindedly cleaned his hands off as he stood up and turned to face her. He had no idea what happened between the last time the spoke and now, but here she was defenses down. This Leia was the Leia he wanted to take into his arms and hold her tightly until she felt safe from the universe around them. Instead, he stood still with her just out of arm?s reach.

    ?So I know that you?ll be safe.?

    Leia froze her expression as quickly as possible and nodded her head, ?Okay.? Unable to hold her facial features still any longer, she quickly turned and headed out of the Falcon. Grateful for the chance to let the bursting play of emotions on her face free reign for a few moments.






    ***
    Han Solo stood outside of Princess Leia?s quarters on base. With a bottle in one hand, he was frozen in place, unable to decide whether he should activate the door announcer. It was exactly one month to the day since they had been married on Uluruan. The rebels were beginning to settle into their new frozen base on Hoth.

    True to his word, Solo had not mentioned to anyone what had taken place while they were there. When Chewie had pressed again for a report, Solo had kept it vague, citing ?the usual.? Han said they had made an emergency stop for repairs and had run into some local trouble, nothing they couldn?t handle. That was it.

    Chewbacca wasn?t buying it, though. He had noticed a difference in his captain since their return. A definite softening could be detected in Solo?s behavior towards the princess and vice versa, for that matter. They continued to trade jibes as usual, but there was a distinct new underlying tone to it all. It was no longer just about sharp insults. Now, the banter had become more relationship-oriented in nature. Solo was flirting more directly and openly than ever before in the never-ending battle of wills. For her part, Leia continued to do an admirable job of putting him in his place, but as a keen observer of behavior, Chewie could see she was more affected than she once had been. Something had happened between Han Solo and the princess and it wasn?t something either one of them could easily brush off no matter how hard they were trying.

    Shifting his weight, Solo ran his hand through his hair. What was he doing? Her Worship had made it very clear that she never wanted to talk about the marriage again. Plus, it was getting late, either she went to bed or was immersed in reports for tomorrow?s briefings. Solo figured it was more likely the latter, knowing her penchant for working late. If th

    Way back when, before I was a member of this place, I read this - in fact, it was one of the reasons I started to write. [face_laugh] So, I guess this is a delurk, but not really, since I wasn't officially a lurker . . . whatever. I'm just so excited that you updated!

    Excellent and sweet! You've nailed the awkwardness of the pre-ESB relationship to a T. And I love Han's behavior - his nervousness, especially - in this last scene. Can't wait to see how this continues!

    Thank you and Feliz Cumpleanos!

    Oooh, this is wonderful! I love the necklace and wonder what it's other meaning is besides the codes to the Falcon. Han is so sweet, he remembered their anniversary. Wonder when Leia is going to find out they are still married...
