"Morning, love"
She blinked.
"Morning to you too, farmboy"
He smiled, and pull her closer to his embrace.
"You look beautiful today"
"I haven't even showered yet"
"Doesn't matter, you still look beautiful"
You think I'm pretty
without any makeup on
"What's the weirdest thing you've eaten so far, Mara?"
His large blue eyes looked at her in anticipation; like a little child wanting to know every secret
"Roast ewok"
The other stared at her; mouth agape.
He laughed.
"It's not supposed to be funny. They're sentient" his brother in law had said
He looked at her; his eyes shining with mischief
"Han's offended. You ate his family member"
Everyone laughed
Han Solo had the decency to blush
She laughed, "oh come on, Solo, you really think that I actually ate an Ewok?"
Thanks for the save, Skywalker
He looked amused
I think it's funny
Yeah, right...
You think I'm funny
when I tell the punch line wrong
she looked him in despair. He wouldn't understand. Couldn't understand. And she would accept that. Because she never understood herself.
She eyed the vibro-blade, "I didn't think, Skywalker. It was impulsive. He screamed, and I stabbed him. I can't afford to be seen-"
He pressed his finger on her lips, "I understand"
She looked at him, her eyes mocked him.
"Oh, really?"
"How do you think it went with Death Star?"
He was the only one who ever understand
And she felt her barriers starting to crack
I know you get me
So I let my walls come down, down
She couldn't look at him, her sweet loving husband-to-be; but she steel her gaze.
And she looks up.
"When I first met Luke" she started, "I was under a compulsion to kill him"
Some chuckled, but he only smiled; encouraging her to continue.
"Generally not a good sign for a lasting relationship"
More laughter. She even smiled this time.
"Such was his courage that he did not run, and did not strike me. He accepted me, as no one else had done before."
She looked at him; and saw that his tear had fallen down.
Any regrets, Skywalker?
He arched his eyebrow.
Not now, not ever.
Before you met me
I was alright
but things were kinda heavy
You brought me to life
Now every February
You'll be my Valentine
Valentine
"Stars" she breathed
He grinned, "like it?"
"I love it"
He blushed
It was her turn to smile
"We ready?"
"Yeah"
She holds his hand
"Just us?"
His smile is almost ecstatic, "just us"
"No battle droid, no stormtrooper, no evil Sith Lord?"
"No. Just you and me"
"And if a problem arise?"
"The galaxy can take care of itself for awhile"
"I like the way you think, farmboy"
Let's go all the way tonight
No regrets,
just love
We can dance,
until we die
You and I,
will be young forever
He kissed her; for the twentieth time of the night. And she's addicted. She couldn't stop either, not even if the galaxy ordered her to stop.
"We must've looked like a couple of teenagers, Skywalker"
"Don't care"
He pretended to yawn, but she saw his hand snaked behind her back, nestling on her shoulder
"Oh that's just classic"
He smiled, "what? You said we looked like couple of teenagers. Might as well continue the act"
She didn't reply, but instead, directing her attention to the movie. But she keeps on smiling even until they walk hand in hand to their apartment.
You make me feel My heart stops
Like I'm livin' a
Teenage dream
The way you turn me on
I can't sleep
Let's run away and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back
When you look at me
Just one touch
Now baby I believe
This is real
So take a chance and
Don't ever look back,
Don't ever look back
It started with a kiss.
She sighed.
He pulled her in closer.
"Mara, what's wrong?"
"I can't decide"
"Decide what?"
"Whether this is a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare"
He kissed her deeply, understanding her every word.
"It's happening, Mara"
I love you
She smiled at his unspoken words
"I love you, too, Luke, and remember, I found you."
They stay awake for most of the night.
We drove to Cali
And got drunk on the beach
Got a motel and
Built a fort out of sheets
I finally found you
My missing puzzle piece
I'm complete
"Have I told you how beautiful you are tonight?"
"Five times or so. But I don't mind hearing it once again"
He leaned and kissed her soundly, "you look beautiful"
"I've worn this gown for numerous occasion, Skywalker"
"You still look beautiful"
"You're incorrigible, Skywalker"
"You love me for it, Mrs. Skywalker"
And they dance away the night
I'mma get your heart racing
In my skin tights jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
Let you put your hands on me
In my skin tight jeans
Be your teenage dream tonight
*End*
