Leaving on an x wing
"Nell." a voice says. "Nell."
Nell opened her eyes sleepily.
"What's going on?" Nell asks.
"We're dropping out of hyperspace." Wes said.
"I'm dizzy." Nell murmured.
"Reversion sickness, it happens when you drop out of hyperspace, there's a breath mask next to the medpack, put that on for a few minutes, that should help." Wes said gently.
A few minutes later Nell took off the breath mask and fell back into sleep.
Two hours later, late evening, Wes landed on the new base location, Hoth.
Wes gets out and unharnesses a sleeping Nell and gently lifts her out of the seat and carries her into the new base. Nell shivers slightly.
". . .cold. . ." Nell murmurs.
"You'll be warm soon." Wes whispers placing a soft kiss on her head, as he walks into the base.
"JANSEN!" Wedge yells when he spots Wes. "Where the hell have you been?"
"Sshhh! You'll wake her up!" Wes hisses back at Wedge.
"We were worried sick about you, and Dodonna's having a panic attack over sleeping beauty here." Wedge said quietly, gesturing at Nell.
- three days later, early morning-
Wes got up and prepared for what would be the most intense battle of his life, a battle that he might not even return from. Oh gods, please let me come back alive. Wes thought as he tucked the holo-image of Nell, that he never went on a mission without, and tucked it into one of the pockets on his flight suit, then made his way down to the hanger.
As the sun began to rise Wes began the final preparations before take off. Wes glanced at the chrono, 4:52, Nell's still asleep, I hope. Wes thought.
Nell was woken up by the sound of the base intercom.
/ALL PIOLETS REPORT TO YOUR SHIPS/
"What! Oh gods no!" Nell said leaping out of bed and running out of her quarters still clad in her pajamas, which was just a black tank top and boyshorts, and ran as fast as she could to the hanger.
"Wes!" Nell called as she ran into the hanger. "Wes!"
Wes was just climbing into his X Wing when he heard someone yelling his name, he turned to see Nell running towards him, he jumped down.
"Wes, don't go, please don't go!" Nell sobbed as she ran into his arms. "I don't want to lose you."
"Oh Nell, sshhh, sshhh. Everything will be alright I promise. You won't lose me Nell." Wes said gently as he held her tightly.
"What if you don't come back?" Nell whimpered.
"Hey, Nell, look at me baby girl, I promise I'll be back. I promise." Wes said cupping Nell's face with his hands and wiping away her tears with his thumbs. "Here, you keep this safe for me till I get back ok?" Wes said taking off a silver chain with a small medallion with the Rouge Squadron insignia engraved on it, hanging on it, and put it around Nell's neck.
"Wait, here." Nell said as she took of her own necklace, a small crystal prism on a silver chain, and stood on her toes as she slipped it over his head. "Come back to me ok?"
"I will." Wes said as he tucked the necklace into his flight suit and kissed her. "Hey, did I ever tell you how great you look when you're in your pajamas?"
Nell blushed as realized she had run from her room without even changing out of her pajamas.
HEY REVIEW!
