Don't leave me!

Thank you AB for giving me the idea for this story.
Luv you all.
Background: Han and Leia aren't
married. Luke and Leia have already announced their family lineage. They share
an apartment, because they are brother and sister. In this story Luke's best
friend (Raque)'s sister was Bria Tharen.
"My, my
someone is looking happy." Luke Skywalker teased, coming into his sister's
bedroom.
Leia stuck
her tongue out at him. "It is just that… Han asked me to go out with him
tonight."
"Where are you
going?"
"The
nerf-herder wants it to be a surprise."
"When?"
"1800 hours,
he will pick me up."
"It is 1600
hours now." Luke said, looking at his chronometer.
"What?!" Leia
exclaimed jumping from the bed. "I must have been daydreaming for 3 hours."
"So Han called
about an hour after I left?"
"Yup. I think he
wanted to wait until Mr. Overprotective brother was gone." Leia teased.
"Han knows I
approve of your relationship, just as long as he doesn't hurt my sister."
"I was teasing."
Leia said, wrapping her arms around her brother's waist.
"Leia, what is
the matter." Luke asked, picking up on Leia's uneasiness.
"Nothing." Leia lied.
"Leia." Luke said,
firmly.
Leia sighed, it
would be a relief to get it off of her chest. Plus, maybe Luke could help her
understand things.
"I am not good
enough for Han."
"Leia!" Luke
said. "Yes you are."
"No I am not.
Marrying…. Or just even dating me for longer will just trap him into this
diplomacy stuff. I am no good at love poetry, or courtship rituals."
"DO you love
him?" Luke asked quietly.
"Heart and soul."
"Then you deserve
him and are good enough for him. Besides, let it be his choice. He is with you,
and that means he doesn't mind the small pitfalls of being with you." Luke
said.
"I wish my
mind accepted it that easy." Leia said, semi-bitterly. "I have been trying to
convince myself of that for a long while."
"Go on this date
tonight, and let your heart guide you."
Leia looked in
her brother's eyes and saw warmth and truth there and love. "Leia, whatever
happens, I love you." Luke said. "This heart, mind, and ear are yours."
"Thank you Luke." Leia was filled with a new resolve. She was
going to, as Luke said let her heart guide her.
"Now, Sister
the great, I think it is time for you to get ready for your date. You need me,
holler." Luke said.
