Author's note: Sadly, I do not own anything Star Wars or Star Wars related.
Well, I'm actually kind of nervous about this...this is my first ever 'published' fanfiction! I've never done this before, so reviews and constructive criticism would be very helpful. These two are my favourite couple right now, so I hope I've done them justice. Enjoy!
"...tell her that I miss our little talks..."
Starkiller was a man of little words; Juno Eclipse knew that better than anyone. She had known it ever since they had first met, with his gruff questions and short replies. Even after he'd rescued her from the Empirical, and she'd thought the ice had broken, he had still been distant, reserved. Things had been a little better after she had returned the favour and rescued him from that Corellian cliff top, when he'd turned to her and told her his name. He'd been more open then, and willing to talk.
But even then that was short-lived, as she kissed him and he fell to the Death Star. She'd known that was it, then. Galen was lost, gone. She'd thought that she would never see him again, and that the co-pilot seat would remain empty for an eternity. She would never have that reassuring fact that, no matter how lonely she was feeling, Galen would be there to join her in what was, more often than not, a fairly one-sided conversation. It hadn't been much, not then and not ever, but at least it was something.
When a year had passed and Juno had thought that she might finally be over him, her world tipped itself upside down again by his return. Shock. Terror. Utter amazement. There were no words to describe what she felt when he returned. When the empty copilot's seat was filled, she knew things might be different, and she was right. Things were different. They shared a bond now that couldn't be broken, or tampered with. And when she sat once again in that pilot's seat that she'd occupied for all those long weeks and months, it felt like everything was right with the universe, at least for now.
"Now wait, wait, wait for me
Please hang around
I'll see you when I fall asleep"
