Day 30- Rexsoka: Hugging
Ahsoka bent over and breathed heavily. It was finally over. This battle, the war. Everything. All done.
She stood up straight and clipped her lightsabers to her belt. Then she looked around for Rex.
The armored man stood several feet away. He appeared to be talking to Kix who was bent over a man on the ground.
Ahsoka took a deep breath. She wanted to run over to Rex and hug him. Really, after the last few battles that was always what she wanted to do. She never had.
But this time, it was different. The war was over. And she couldn't fight her feelings any longer.
Ahsoka broke into a run and bolted towards the man. She didn't care that all the men should see; she didn't care that Rex had barely seconds to turn around and see her. She had to.
The man turned just in time to see her, and caught her in his arms quite smoothly. The force of the embrace required he pick her and they spun around.
"We did it!" Ahsoka laughed, wrapping her legs around Rex's waist.
Rex, still trying to process what had happened, was too surprised to say anything. When they stopped moving, he leaned back slightly to look her in the eyes.
"We did it," Ashoka repeated with a smile.
Rex smiled back, finally realizing what was going on. "Yeah, we did it," he agreed. He secured his hold on her and she relaxed into his arms.
Ahsoka leaned back and placed a hand on his face. "I'm proud of you," she whispered.
Rex leaned onto her hand. "I'm proud of you too."
Ahsoka laughed and wrapped her arms around his neck, leaning on his shoulder.
"We did it," she sighed with a smile.
Rex held her tighter, one hand around her waist, the other around her shoulders. "Yeah, we did."
