Ruin The Moment.

Chapter 26

The little creature and Artoo weren't giving up. "Mine!" Artoo reacted with a startled squeal, and let go. "Mine!"

Luke was fed up and was trying to be nice with the little creature. "Now will you move along, little fella? We're got a lot of work to do."

He shook his little head. "No! No, no! Stay and help you, I will. Find your friend, hmm?" He laughed.

"I'm not looking for a friend. I'm looking for a Jedi Master."

Something lit up in the little creature at the mention of that. "Oohhh, Jedi Master. Yoda. You seek Yoda."

Luke whipped around. "You know him?"

The little creature nodded, "Mmm. Take you to him, I will." And he laughed and started to hobble down the little swamp. "Yes, yes. But now, we must eat, come. Good food. Come." With that, the creature scurried out of the clearing, laughing merrily. Luke stared after him wondering if this little creature was telling the truth. All he saw was the faint light from the small power lamp moving through the fog. Luke made his decision and started after the creature.

"Come, come." Artoo, was unsure and whistled a blue streak of protest. "Stay here and watch after the camp, Artoo." Luke disappeared from view, the worried little droid grew quieter, and uttered a soft electronic sigh.

Threepio whistled and beeped a strange dialect into the control panel in front of him. The control panel whistled back a few mystifying beeps. "Oh, where is Artoo when I need him?" Nadia stepped beside him.

"Hey Threepio what's going on?"

"Well I have been trying to get through to Artoo, but he isn't picking up my transition. I do hope he and Master Luke are alright." Han entered the hold area and kneeled on the floor near the control box.

"Sir, I don't know where your ship learned to communicate, but it has the most peculiar dialect. I believe, sir, it says that the power coupling on the negative axis has been polarized. I'm afraid you'll have to replace it."

Han rolled his eyes and went to Chewie. "Well, of course I'll have to replace it." He handed a wire coil up to Chewie who was working near the ceiling. "Here! And Chewie..."

Chewie brought his head back through the trap door in the ceiling and whines. Han glanced back at Threepio, unaware that Nadia was listening. He then spoke quietly to Chewie so only he can hear.

"... I think we'd better replace the negative power coupling."

Nadia who finished talking to Threepio stood forward. "Need any help?"

He smirked, "Why you Luke?" He watched her flushed expression.

"No. I'm just wondering why he hasn't contacted me yet."

He nodded, "Don't worry, if I know Luke he's probably in trouble." He teased and she punched his arm playfully.

"Nice try, Solo." He would regularly try to worry her.

Leia finished welding the valves she had been working on and attempted to re-engage the system by pulling a lever attached to the valve. It doesn't budge. Han quietly snuck up on her and noticed her struggle, and moved to help her. He put his arms around her and put his hands over hers, but she pushed him away roughly. "Hey, Your Worship, I'm only trying to help."

"Would you please stop calling me that?" She hissed trying to get it to work. He watched her pull on the lever.

"Sure, Leia." He said casually and too easily. His change of tone annoying her even more.

"Oh, you make it so difficult sometimes."

"I do, I really do. You could be a little nicer, though." He watched her reaction as she pulled it even harder. "Come on, admit it. Sometimes you think I'm all right." She let go of the lever and rubbed her sore hand.

"Occasionally..." She surprisingly let him take her hands in his. "When you aren't acting like a scoundrel."

He laughed, "Scoundrel. I like the sound of that." With that, Han started to massage her hand.

"Stop that." She didn't pull away though.

"Stop what?" Leia turned red and confused. "Stop that! My hands are dirty."

"My hands are dirty, too. What are you afraid of?"

She looked straight into his eyes. "Afraid?"

Han looked at her with a piercing look. He's never looked more handsome, more dashing, more confident. He reached out slowly and takes Leia's hand again from where it is resting on a console. He drew it toward him. "You're trembling."

"I'm not trembling." Then with an irresistible combination of physical strength and emotional power, the space pirate begins to draw Leia toward him... very slowly.

"You like me because I'm a scoundrel. There aren't enough scoundrels in your life."

Leia was now very close to Han and as she spoke her voice became an excited whisper, a tone completely in opposition to her words. "I happen to like nice men." Her face was becoming closer to his. Nadia's words came back to her and she couldn't resist anymore.

"I'm a nice man."

"No, you're not. You're..." He kissed her now, with slow, hot lips. He took his time, as though he had forever, bending her body backward. She has never been kissed like this before, and it almost made her faint. Suddenly, Threepio appeared in the doorway, speaking excitedly. "Sir, sir! I've isolated the reverse power flux coupling." Han turned slowly, icily, from their embrace.

"Thank you. Thank you very much." He said sarcastically. Thank you for just ruining the moment Goldrenrod!

"Oh, you're perfectly welcome, sir." The moment spoiled, he turned back to see that Leia was gone.

Nadia had just finished cleaning herself up in the fresher room. When she bumped into a flustered Leia. "I just kissed Han." She blurted out, fixing her dishevelled hair.

Her eyes widened and little smile coming on her face. "What?" Leia looked surprised herself. Leia nodded, "Yes."

Sorry it's a short one. I haven't had time to write.

Thank you all for the reviews and continuing followers and favourites. I went to see Deadpool and to be honest I did not like it, there was not enough action and it was more of a comedy, my Grandad did not like it either. Anyway enjoy this chapter.
