Kanan's POV
I sat on the edge of my new bed. In my palms I held my two most important possessions: my lightsaber and holocron. I sighed. Hera had given me some time to settle into my cabin. It was night time and I had managed to get some medicine for Ezra with the last of my credits. While Hera checked to see if the boy had any serious illness, I sat here in my room, thinking.
I placed the objects in my hand into the secret compartment in the bed and closed it. What am I getting myself into? I asked myself. Usually I would have taken up Hera's offer willingly but now I was wondering about Ezra. The last thing I would want was for him to get hurt or worse, killed. It was a huge risk…
The door whooshed open. "Hey. How are you?" Hera asked sweetly.
"Fine. Ezra?" I asked.
Ezra bolted around the corner and jumped on me, wrapping his arms around my neck. Hera giggled. "He's fine."
I pulled the small boy back so I could see his face. "You're looking better already."
He laughed and said "Yeah, but the medicine tastes gross!"
I smiled. Hera walked forward and asked "So where is he sleeping?"
I thought about it for a second. For the time the orphan was with me I would sleep on the lounge just across from the bed. I looked at the energetic, tan faced boy who was sitting in front of me. "What do you think kid?" I asked.
He looked at me, then at the door, then back to me. "I wanna stay with you," he said. I saw Hera smile in the corner of my eye and I replied "Okay. Want the top bunk or bottom?"
Ezra gave me a charming smile and said "What one do you want?"
I rolled my eyes. "I asked you first."
"Okay then…. I want top" he finally decided. I stood up, carrying him with me. "Good, cause it's bed time," I said as I sat him on the top bunk. He lay down and I pulled the blankets over him. "Are you going to sleep too?" he asked, blue eyes shining like stars. "No, but I will soon. I might just get a drink quickly," I said as I stepped back. The child nodded and then said "Hera! I need to tell you something." I raised an eyebrow at Hera who just rolled her eyes and walked up to the bunks. "What is it hun?" she asked. Ezra leant close to her ear and whispered something. They then whispered back and forth until the boy finally smiled and nodded.
Hera turned around and walked for the door and followed her. "What'd he say?" I asked when we were in the hall. "You'll find out," she said as she kept walking. After we got a drink and talked for a bit, I went back to the cabin. I looked at Ezra, sleeping peacefully. I walked to the edge of the bed and stroked his head. I still couldn't explain why I liked him so much. Maybe it was just meant to be.
I quickly got dressed into a set of night clothes and hopped into bed. I pulled the covers up to my chest, leaving my arms out of the sheets. I sighed. I made the right choice…
Hera's POV
It was just after midnight and I couldn't help but get up. What Ezra had whispered to me played in my mind as I walked out of my cabin.
"I want to lie with da…I mean…Kanan," Ezra whispered quietly into my ear.
"Why don't you say that then?" I asked.
"What if he doesn't want me to?" he whispered nervously.
I thought for a second. "Why don't you pretend your asleep and when he falls asleep, just hop down and lie next to him? Then he can't say no." Ezra smiled at this and nodded. I headed for the door and smiled. He was so cute…
I stood in front of the cabin Ezra and Kanan were sleeping in. I pressed a few buttons on the control panel, making the door slide open just enough for me to see in. What I saw made me smile. Ezra was lying on top of Kanan's chest, snuggled under the sheets. Kanan was still sleeping but had a hand on top of Ezra's back. They were so perfect for each other. I could see that Kanan wanted a relationship more than a 'master apprentice bond' with the boy. I could see that Ezra needed a relationship more than a 'teacher student bond' with the man. They both had the same feelings yet were too afraid to express them. That's why this moment was so perfect. A moment where both unknowingly embraced each other's love. A moment I would remember forever…
Hey guys! I know it's short but I thought it would be a good idea to do a cute Kanan x Ezra chapter. I hope it was good and that you enjoyed it. Hopefully it will keep you entertained until the next time I update with a hopefully longer chapter. May the force be with you, always!
