Chapter Forty Eight

Today Was A Good Day

Leia stared down at the data pad in her hands, hoping checking over messages would help distract her mind. Han held her hand, as he sat beside her in the waiting room. The morning had been very normal in the Solo household. Han and Leia had woke early to get Ben up and ready for school. Ben ate his breakfast and questioned Leia further about his baby sister, and then he was off to school. Now the couple were here.

"Mrs. Solo?" Leia heard someone call from across the room. Looking up from her data pad, Leia slowly stood. Sliding her pad into her purse, she crossed the room to the woman waiting for her. The woman smiled at Leia, her bright smile relaxing the Princess a bit. Han walked closely behind his wife, following both women down the hallway. "How are you today?" She asked Leia.

"I'm doing well, thank you."

"Wonderful. We'll have you in this room here. Your medic will be right in."

"Thank you." Leia said, as the woman left Han and Leia alone. Leia slowly moved to sit on the exam table, her eyes darting over to Han, who awkwardly stood in the corner.

"Relax…"

"I just don't remember how this stuff works." Han said, glancing around the room.

"You went to a lot of my appointments with Ben."

"That was over nine years ago." Han added.

"Yes…I guess. I can't imagine it's that different." Leia said, glancing down to her flat stomach. They had held off going to the medic for a few days, Leia knew she wasn't far along and wondered if they had come too early. Han had practically made the appointment for her. While Ben and Leia both had confirmed the pregnancy, Han wanted to make sure everything was going alright.

Leia still almost didn't believe it. Maybe it would take the medic telling her, for it to feel real. Han was excited, which pleased her. He had his heart set on a daughter for a while now. Thinking back, she wondered how different this pregnancy would be from Ben's. Already it felt different. Last time she had been terrified and alone for the early days, too afraid to tell Han anything. This was so much better.

"I went to my first appointment alone." Leia said suddenly remembering that day at the medic's office on Coruscant.

"I would have went with you Princess." Han huffed. Leia smiled at her frowning husband.

"I know you would have. I was scared, I feel much better this time around." She smiled again.

"Good, you and this little girl need to feel good."

"What if it isn't a girl?"

"Ben seems to think so."

"He could be wrong."

"Could be twins?" Han smirked.

"What is your obsession with us having twins?"

"It's possible."

"Not in this version of our lives." Leia laughed.

"Fine…Well I'd like a girl."

"Would you now?"

"You know I would. A little mini Leia."

"Can the Galaxy handle it?" Leia teased.

"Always. This galaxy needs more women like you." Han smiled, leaning down and kissing her cheek. The knock at the door pulled them apart and slowly the door slid open revealing Leia's new medic. The older woman had her gray hair pulled back tight away from her face. Her warm smile greeted Leia.

"Good morning Mrs. Solo. Mr. Solo." She said nodding to Han.

"Moring." Leia greeted.

"What brings you in today dear?" The woman asked.

"I think….I might be pregnant." Leia said, ignoring Han's smirk. She couldn't exactly tell the medic their nine year old son had confirmed her pregnancy, and after a little digging she too had felt her daughters presence.

"Have you been trying to conceive?" She asked.

"We haven't been avoiding it." Han chuckled.

"We've been open to another child for a few years." Leia explained, her eyes rolling at her husband.

"You have other children?"

"One, a son. He's nine now."

"Alright, so its been a few years." The medic noted.

"Is that a problem?" Leia asked.

"No not at all."

"I did have some complications a few years ago and my first pregnancy wasn't very easy. We were told it could be hard for us to get pregnant again."

"But you think it's happened?" She asked with another warm smile for Leia.

"I believe so."

"Alright dear, Let's have a look at you and baby. Lay back and lift your shirt." She instructed Leia. Leia did as she was told, Han moving to her side and taking hold of her hand. Han and Leia watched as the medic moved the sensor over Leia's stomach. Keying in a set of numbers, they watched as lights danced over Leia's stomach. A screen slowly appeared above the device.

"Alright dear, just relax."

Han and Leia watched as the screen flickered and the medic adjusted settings. Beeps and noises came from the machine, neither Han or Leia knowing what they meant. The medic seemed in deep thought as she looked over the screen and continued to press buttons.

"Hmmm."

"Is something wrong?" Han asked.

"No…your wife seems very healthy."

"and the baby?" Leia asked.

"Is very small." The medic answered with a smile. "I'm surprised you noticed dear. You are still very early."

"Right…but is everything alright?" Han asked, his nerves rising.

"Is he a protective father?" She asked Leia.

"Very, I remember what he was last time we did this." Leia laughed.

"Hey…" Han whined.

"Nothing wrong with it Mr. Solo. We want to make sure Momma and baby are well, you seem to be good at looking after them. They both are looking very good. As I said you are very early my dear, and I know you have concerns but everything looks good."

"Alright." Leia nodded.

"This little dot here is your baby." She said pointing to the blurry blue screen above Leia's stomach. Han and Leia strained their eyes. Han more then anyone wanting to see proof of his new baby. Leia and Ben had already felt the baby, he wanted to at least see her.

"I don't see anything." Han groaned.

"The baby is very small Mr. Solo. I'd guess you're only a few weeks along." She suggested to the pair. Han and Leia glancing back to each other, both having memories of their anniversary flash across their mind. Han had joked about that being the night, and Leia actually believed him. Neither one of them expected a new baby to come from that night of love making, but here they were.

"The baby will get bigger and then you'll be able to see her, I mean it." Leia told Han. Han nodded squeezing her hand tightly.

"Would you like an image?" She asked them. "Not much to see, but some like it saved to your data chip.

"I would like one please, our son is excited."

"Ready to be a big brother then?" She asked.

"I think so."

"That's sweet. I'll just save the image here…This will be accessible on your files. You remember how these work?" she asked.

"I do." Leia nodded, remembering how helpful her pregnancy data chip had been when she was traveling around the galaxy while pregnant with Ben.

"Wonderful, you'll be able to share it with your son then. I would like you to come back in, in a few weeks. While everything looks well and you are very healthy. I want to keep an eye on you, considering your previous issues." The medic explained as she moved the device away from Leia.

"Of course." Leia nodded, sitting up and pulling her shirt back down.

"Nothing to worry about now dear, congratulations mom and dad."

With that the medic left the couple alone. Han was smiling great big at his wife, and Leia couldn't help but laugh at him.

"You seem happy."

"I am happy." He told her offering her a kiss.

"I'm glad." Leia grinned. Han offered his hand to help her off the table and slowly the couple walked out of the office together. The pair walked hand in hand down the street. Their home wasn't that far, the walk was refreshing in the warm air. Han continued to glance at his wife, still feeling like this was a dream. Leia seemed happy and that made him happy as well. It was nice of the galaxy to give them a break once in a while. Leia's long hair twisted in the wind and brushed up against Han's shoulder. Reaching out, Han slowly brushed the hairs away from her face, leaning in he placed a warm kiss to her temple.

"Do you need to go to the hangar today?" Leia asked.

"Not today."

"I guess you can stay around."

"You like when I'm around." Han pointed.

"Do I?"

"That data chip there, has the proof just how much you like me sweetheart." Han smirked.

"That just proves I use you for sex." Leia said, stepping forward and in front of him.

"Oh! Is that how it is?" Han asked reaching for her hand and pulling her back to him, pushing her chest to his.

"That's how it is hot shot." She nodded, trying to hide her smile. Cocking his head at her, Han smirked and kissed her nose.

"I think you're lying." He grinned, staying close to her face. "You like me, you might even love me a little bit."

"Maybe just a tiny bit…You do give me cute babies…" she shrugged, trying to keep her smile hidden.

"Just a bit?" Han pushed.

"Hmmm." She said with a giggle, breaking into a grin.

"You're out of practice Senator…You gotta work on that politician face." Han said, running his fingers along her jaw.

"That's not my life anymore."

"Thank gods for that."

Coming to their house, they both noted that Ben would be home from school soon. They knew he would be excited to hear about the baby. He had been excited last night when they told him about the appointment. Ben seemed to be thrilled at the idea of being a big brother. The day was beautiful and Leia wanted to enjoy it.

Opting to sit outside in the warm breeze, Leia was feeling relaxed and extremely happy. She could hear Han moving about the kitchen inside, she had no idea what he was up to. She had asked him to join her outside on their patio but he had insisted on going to the kitchen first.

"Hey fly boy! You gonna leave me alone out here all day?" Leia called to him.

"I'm coming!"

Inside, Han all but ran around the kitchen. Trying to desperately remember exactly how Leia preferred this drink. It had been several years since he had made it for her. He tried to work fast, wanting to join his wife out on their patio. Staring down into the mug, Han nodded. He hoped he had remember everything correctly. Grabbing the drink Han slowly walked down the room.

Leia laughed and peered around the corner for her husband. She quirked her eyebrow when she saw him rounding the room with a mug in his hand.

"Here you go." He said, clearly proud f himself.

"What is this?" She asked looking down at the liquid.

"I grabbed some of that tea you liked when your were pregnant with Ben." Han smiled.

"Aren't you a sweet husband." Leia teased.

"I'm the best Princess."

"Thank you." She said reaching for his hand and pulling him to sit beside her. She kissed his cheek and rested her head against his shoulder. Smiling down at the tea, she sipped the hot liquid. She had forgotten how good this stuff was.

"Taste right?" Han asked.

"It's perfect, thank you husband."

"Welcome wife." Han smiled, kissing her temple. Leia sighed into his touch, resting her body closer to his. "You feeling ok?"

"I'm good. I feel great."

"Good. How's baby feeling?"

"Normal, I guess. It's like the medic said, She's just so small. I can feel her. I can feel that bright light Ben mentioned. But besides that, theres not much to feel."

"Hmmm You think she'll look like you?" Han asked, silently hoping their daughter looked exactly like her mother. He didn't care if she looked anything like him, there was something special to him with the thought of Leia having a daughter who resembled her.

"I'm not sure. Ben looks like you, but he has my eyes. Maybe she'll be bits of both."

"Beautiful like her mom." Han whispered to her, kissing her head once again. He couldn't stop touching her lately. They were gentle touches or kisses, caring gestures that he hoped showed her how much he loved her.

"Hmmm you're being awfully nice to me lately."

"I'm always nice." Han said, looking shocked.

"Not always hot shot."

"Always…" He smirked.

"Next time we're fighting I'll let you know how not nice you're being."

"It's a date." He laughed, not being able to stop himself he leaned in and kissed Leia once more. Leia gave in and kissed him back, her fingers running down the back of his neck and up into the bits of his hair. The couple sighed against each others lips, lost in their touch. What started as a simple kiss deepened and Leia groaned against her husbands lips.

"Hmm you let me know when those pregnancy hormones kick in…" Han mumbled to her.

"Which ones?" She asked confused, as her eyes fluttered open to meet his.

"The ones that have you pulling me to the cockpit to be alone or into closets, Gods where else did you drag me off to last time." Han teased her, Leia blushed slightly before slapping his chest.

"Stop it."

"I'm not complaining."

"Hmm We have a son this time around, we'll have to be more stealthy."

"Noted, I think I can handle this mission." Han smirked, his fingers running up to cup Leia's chest. Leia started to let out a moan, when they heard the front door open.

"Mom!" They heard Ben call into the main room.

"Damn it!" Han swore.

"Schools out…" Leia reminded him.

"Clearly."

"Soon their will be two of them to bug us." Leia laughed.

"Ben, we're out here." Han called to his son.

"Mom!" Ben said darting to his mothers side.

"Hi sweetie."

"How's sister?" Ben asked.

"Sister is good. The medic says Mom and baby are healthy." Han told his son.

"Can I feel her?" Ben asked his mother, his fingers reaching out for her stomach.

"Of course you can sweetie." Leia said pulling Ben to sit in between Han and herself. Ben's fingers traced over his mothers stomach, before his eyes closed and he focussed.

"Sister feels bright still."

"She does, she'll start to grow soon."

"Can I see her?" Ben asked, remembering his parents had promised him an image of the baby. Leia smiled and nodded, looking to Han who quickly stood up and moved to retrieve her data chip.

"The baby is really small." Leia explained to her son. "But I'll show you what the inside of mom's tummy looks like."

Han stood by the door for a moment, silently staring at his family. Ben was running his fingers along Leia's tummy and Leia was explaining details about the baby to him. It was a pleasing family moment, a moment Han had been waiting for. Leia just seemed so happy and so did Ben. His family was happy and well, what more could he ask for. Smirking he stepped forward.

Hearing Han, Leia slowly took the chip from him and plugged it into her data pad. Ben watched as the blue screen slowly appeared.

"Now sister, is this little dot right here." Leia said pointing.

"Doesn't look like a baby." Ben stated, feeling confused and disappointed.

"She has to grow." Han told him.

"Hmm." Ben sighed, snuggling into his mothers embrace. "Mom?"

"What is it sweetie?"

"Can I help take care of the baby?"

"You can help with some things, Daddy and I will do most of it."

"When do we get to see Sister?"

"Well she'll grow in my tummy and in a few months we'll have a better image of her. We'll meet her after she's born."

"Then I can hold her?" Ben asked, just full of questions today.

"You can…"

"Dad?" ben asked turning to his father.

"Yeah buddy?"

"Will sister like me?"

"Of course she will. You're her big brother."

"I'll take care of her." Ben told his parents, once again snuggling in closer to his mother's side.

"I know you will baby." Leia said kissing her son's head. Han smiled at his family before looking out to the waves. Today was a good day.
