Chapter 8
I would like to dedicate this chapter to naturallyblondejace for giving me an idea for this chapter!
Everyone's P.O.V
The whole base fell silent and just stared at the soon-soon-to-be couple in question. Then there was chaos. Han and most of High Command were in shock. Leia had fainted but everyone was too busy shouting protests in disbelief.
"But they're always arguing!"
"I've never seen them have a conversation that doesn't end in them wanting to kill each other!"
"That can't be true they hate each other!"
Luke's P.O.V
The last comment was from Luke. He couldn't believe it. Han and Leia hated each other, they could barley stand being in the same room together and suddenly he's told that they hook up and have kids in the near future! Luke was in shock he thought that Leiahad liked him not Han. She always came running to him when Han had crossed a line while arguing. He had always calmed her down after. But when he thought about it they seemed to be fighting less as time went on, when they did fight it was just as bad as always. It was just happening less frequently now. Luke remembered when they fought daily, now they did it once or twice a week. He also thought about when he and Leia had been discussing work and Han had come up. She had gotten an affectionate gleam in her eyes and had sounded distant. A similar thing had occured when Luke had been talking to Han about Leia. Thought he just couldnt see them getting together, they were both just too stubborn.
Han's P.O.V
'How' was the only thought going through Han's head. Him and her worship. Her highness and a lowly smuggler. The two just didn't go together, even if he was a General in the future. Sure he had teased the princess about how much she was attracted to him and fantasized about her but kids?! Did a one night stand get complicated or kriff were they married. Han had promised himself that after Bria he wouldn't love. But Leia wasn't your usual princess. She could fire a blaster with deathly precision, lead armies, didn't act like she was everyone's superior and had a knack for getting him all hot and bothered. He couldn't deny that he cared about her but was he really ready to know that he has kids with and possibly marries her? He knew Chewie was going to have a field day. He was always teasing Han about his feelings for Leia. It was almost worth not getting involved with Leia to avoid Chewie for saying 'I told you so'.
Everyone's P.O.V
Everyone had stopped shouting and was in the denial stage when suddenly everyone could see Han and Leia through the slightly open door.
"Welcome home sweetheart," Han said while pulling her into his arms and kissing her. Leia immediately deepened the kiss.
They had just confirmed what everyone in the rebel base had recently been told. Han and Leia were a thing. Most of High Command was disgusted that Leia had consented to this. Leia had recovered and was deathly pale. Han was also deathly pale. Both were still in shock and couldn't believe they they were an item.
When they finally parted for air Leia started talking business.
"So has Luke gotten in touch with our past selves yet, I can't wait to see the looks on their faces when we tell them that we're married and have three kids. Where is Anakin by the way."
"He's in the kitchen with Jaina, Jacen and Lando and yeah our past selves are gonna freak out!"
Leia reached up and kissed Han again. "My past self will probably be even more surprised that you've overcome you're attachment issues and become a General."
"I don't have 'attachment issues' I'm married aren't I and I would call that an attachment." Han replied mock angry.
"Well I would certainally hope you do." Leia said lightly hitting Han on the chest.
"Get a room!" Lando called out from the next room.
"Well we have a house and your in it!" Han shouted back.
"Han," Leia scolded lightly.
"Well I hate to interrupt, but we have some guests waiting for you. And I'm pretty sure they know your together," Luke said amused.
Han and Leia looked through the door surprised. Leia was blushing lightly at having an audience. Han was just smiling his trademark lopsided grin.
"Well that's a job done then," He stated still smirking.
They then walked into the room and sat down beside Luke on the couch. Leia noticed the looks on their faces.
"Is it really that surprising that Han and I are married?"
"Of course it is, your a princess I'm a smuggler, it only happens in fairy tales," Han said amused at the look on Dodanna's face. "Plus most of them hate me."
"Well then they're just going to have to accept that we are happily married with three beautiful children," Leia said slightly annoyed at the look on Dodanna's face.
"Well then dear sister, now that you've straightened them out lets get started. As your older brother I demand that you listen carefully" Luke said jokingly.
"You're only five minutes older!" Leia replied.
"Wait Luke and I are related?!" Leia asked confused.
"Yep we're twins, we got separated at birth. I was raised by my aunt and uncle on Tatooine and as you know Leia was adopted by Bail and Breha Organa," Luke answered.
"That explains so much!" Luke exclaimed.
Both Leia and Luke were shocked that they were related but were unexplainablely happy at the same time. The other rebles were surprised that Luke and Leia were related but nothing could come close to them knowing that Han and Leia were married.
