    Nat: This is wonderful!!! I can't wait until Jaina gets back

    Thanks! And to read that, check your inbox ;)




    Red: Woohoo!! Jaggie is back!

    Haha, yes indeed. :)

    That is so Jag! He is so singleminded about everything and would approach this as a mission.

    Yes, singleminded is how most men are, even the good ones.

    I'm with everyone on the four words, but I can't bet on you not throwing a hydro-spanner into the equation...

    O:)

    Can't wait for more!

    Thanks :D

    Already on page two before the second post? [face_blush]

    Big [:D] to all of you for leaving comments, to Austyn in hopes that you feel better soon, and Nat for doing the beta. Once again, in case you didn't see the note, anyone who wants to be PMed when I update just say so in a post or PM me.

    On a side note: voting begins today for the summer awards. The Jaina prequel to this story (Overkill) is nominated for best songfic and I'm up for best new author.[/shameless plug]


    And now, the moment you've all been waiting for... [face_love] ;)







    Jaina Solo was too exhausted to notice the man sleeping on her couch when she entered her quarters. She dumped her bag in the doorway to her bedroom, removed the outer layers of her robes and crawled into bed. In the back her mind, a little voice was trying to tell her that something odd was going on. First, Jacen had expressed surprise in their twin bond?a rare event?and now he was trying to hide something from her. Then, her senses had picked up the faint scent of a masculine aroma. She decided if she wouldn?t sleep she would give the situation more thought, but within a minute she was resting.

    ------

    The noise of a bag hitting the ground woke Jag with a start. Looking at the chrono he muttered a Chiss curse to himself. He had overslept. He was going to make her dinner and have it waiting on her for when she returned from wherever she had been. He would at least have gone and purchased some flowers, but he had overslept. Thinking of how this part of his mission wasn?t turning out so well, he knew somewhere in the Chiss afterlife Nawra was laughing at him. He sighed and pondered his options. Looking over at the comm unit, he saw the blinking red light and he knew she had not seen his message. This meant he had to stay at her apartment for the night if the message was going to work. Making his way over to the open doorway to her bedroom as quietly as he could, he saw her lying asleep. Part of him, a rather large part, wanted to crawl into bed with her. Then he caught sight of her lightsaber resting on the nightstand and figured that may not be the wisest course of action. Reluctantly, he made his way back to the couch and tried to sleep and to kill the stupid look he knew he had on his face from seeing her. He was only able to accomplish the former.

    ------

    Jaina awoke out of habit at 0800. Walking out into her living area wearing the tank and shorts she?d slept in, she made her way to the comm station with her eyes closed. She did this for two reasons: she was not ready to surrender to being awake and she was afraid to see how many messages she had waiting on her. She sat down and began scanning her inbox. Her head said she was giving all the entries a look so they could be triaged and responded to accordingly. Her heart said she was looking for a name, his name. And there it was. Taking a shot of whiskey and a deep breath she opened the message to see four words:

    Jaina?

    Turn around.

    --Jag


    She couldn?t move. Fearfully she opened herself to the Force to confirm what she feared and hoped. Jag was here.

    If she turned around, what would she see? Jag with flowers, with words of love, with a ring and a proposal? Jag with a grim look on his face, with words of how he was sorry but there was no room in his life for her?

    Taking another shot and another deep breath, she turned to see Jag?asleep on her couch. Once the shock passed she was torn between laughing, beating him, and crying for joy or frustration. Without realizing what she was doing, she crossed to space to the couch and sat on the floor next to him.

    She sat there for a few minutes staring at him and probing him with the Fore to make sure it was really Jag. He must have sensed her eyes staring at him because he awoke.

    And there it was: the verdant hue that was Jag?s eyes. That shade of green that she had searched flora and fauna for, but could never quite match.

    ?Good morning? she said.

    ?Hmmm? he granted in reply.

    ?You ha

    lol.
    That's adorable, with both of them so tired they can't even have a proper reunion.
    Loved Jaina walking in and not even seeing him, then Jag being asleep when Jaina finds the message.
    And then he's speaking in Cheunh to her... lol.
    Awwww.... what a great mushy post. I feel all happy now because of this.
    Great job! :)
    Thanks for the PM!

    Great Post!

    I especially liked the part about Jag's message not working because he was still asleep on the couch. It was quite endearing. And him trying to stay awake long enough to figure out whether it was real or not.

    Looking forward to more.

    Sorry, BF, it took me a little longer than I thought to get here...

    but it was definitely worth the wait!

    Jaina?

    Turn around.

    --Jag


    What a great two-word message! I wondered what it might be, but that one hadn't occurred to me - a delightful surprise!

    You're a wonderful writer. I will be watching for more PM's ...

    Jaina wakes up to find Jag asleep on her couch and he's so tired that he's speaking Chiss. [face_laugh] And then he falls back asleep... [face_laugh] But, at least Jaina's in his arms this time. [face_love]

    I love this. :D Can't wait for more. ;)

    You're a wonderful writer.

    Well, since everyone seems to be posting in colors, I thought I'd join in.

    Yes, the teeth came out as planned yesterday. Yes, the bf did call and joke about my chipmunk cheeks. Yes, I did get some written. And yes, to my everlasting shame, I'm glad you had another beta. :p I can't say my grammar would have been any more lucid than the rest of me.

    So let us give thanks to the gods for many things: shrimp ramen, kiwi-strawberry snapple, warm fruit smoothies, ice packs, and great 'fics to read. :)

    So as long as you can keep the reader in me satisfied, I can take care of the rest. :p

    Great postie! I loved the entire dialogue and interaction. It fit well. Poor Jag. He sounds exhausted! *pats character on the head and points to squishy couch*

    Can't wait for more. But you're right. The GRE comes first. :)

    Glad to hear you're recovering well. And it's ok to admit you needed a break for the day. Promise the next beta is all yours. :)

    ?You haven?t seen or talked to me in two years and you come all the way from? wherever to sleep on my couch and grunt at me??

    ?No? he said closing his eyes again, ?but I am failing my mission.?

    ?What mission??

    ?To win you back.?

    ?I?m a mission to you now?? she said with slight anger entering her voice. Then she remembered whom she was talking to. This was how he thought and lived. ?I don?t know if I should be flattered or insulted,? she said, this time with mock anger in her voice


    Heehee! [face_laugh]

    That was really sweet, BF. [face_love]

    They're finally together after all this time and they're both too tired to do anything about it. :p

    I was expecting heavy duty mush, you know. [face_not_talking] :p [face_laugh]

    Can't wait for more! There'd better be mush next time, and lots of it. [face_mischief] [face_batting]

    Love it!

    Very realistic way of looking at those two. Poor Jaina...what a rip-off of a reunion! Her man comes back after two years...and falls asleep. Were it me, I'd either hit him or kiss him. Maybe both... All in all, wonderful read.

    Put me on that PM list!

    I had to read both posts the same day but whipped down to the second just to see what those four words were.

    Jaina?

    Turn around.

    Sorry it took so long. My internet was being screwy! I never knew how much I loved my internet!! It was only gone for a couple of days and already I was going through withdrawal! 8-}

    I loved the post!! Can't wait for more. Those 4 words never even popped into my mind! Which is good cause if they had I would be severely creeped out. :p
