Ezrabine's Surprise:

D98/0 ABY, Lothal

Ezra's tower was finally finished.

Okay. Not exactly. The restoration of the outside wasn't done yet, but the apartment was. And Sabine couldn't wait any longer to show him. She'd been deliberately keeping their visits to locations where the tower was never in sight so he didn't know what she'd been doing, since the stacks of construction materials all over the ground outside the tower where glaringly obvious.

So today, as twilight approached, Sabine was waiting on the balcony of their new apartment, drumming her fingers on the railing impatiently. The minutes slowly ticked passed until FINALLY, Ezra was standing beside her.

"Hello, Sabine," Ezra said as her head swivelled in his direction. He drank in the sight of her, looking more beautiful than ever. And for once, she wasn't wearing her armour. Instead, she was dressed in a loose fitting white blouse and form fitting black trousers that made him want to drool. It was probably a good thing he was in spirit form right now or else he'd probably be embarrassing himself. The other good thing was his body was safely locked in his room and he'd developed very good shields. He did not need to hear all the teasing he'd get from Link and Raign if they got even a glimmer of his thoughts on how much he panted after his wife.

Sabine smiled at Ezra. "Hi, babe," she replied, eyes travelling up and down his form eagerly. It was hard to tell for sure when he was transparent, but she could swear he got more muscular every time she saw him. All that swimming and sword training sure wasn't hurting anything. Not like she would ever complain; Ezra could pack on as much muscles as he wanted. It just made him hotter.

Ezra smirked a little and suddenly his tunic was gone, leaving him bare chested.

Sabine gawked at his displayed muscles for a minute before the reality of what had just happened hit her. Sabine gave him a squinty eyed looked. "Were you reading my mind again, Ezra Bridger?"

Ezra winced and looked at the floor, hiding from her glare, imagining his tunic back on. "Umm. Sort of? I wasn't trying to. Honest! It's just, you were broadcasting again and I'm super connected to you right now to be here, and, well, yah."

Sabine hummphed, but decided to let him off the hook. "I suppose that's acceptable then, but you'll be in big trouble if you do that all the time. I've already told you that you do not need to know everything I'm thinking."

"I swear I don't do it on purpose or without your permission," Ezra promised, blue eyes sincere and meeting hers steadily.

She let a smile return to her face. "Good. And kriff, Ezra, give a girl a little warning before you make your clothes disappear. I think my insides melted and you got me all hot and bothered. That really isn't fair."

Ezra tilted his head to the side a little, caught on the first part of her speech. "Hot and bothered?" he asked with a gleam in his eyes.

Sabine flushed a little and nodding reluctantly. "Yah. And it's your fault. And you can't even do anything about it," she grumbled with a mock glare before getting a little more serious. "You are much too good at doing that to me."

Ezra adopted a seductive look and crowded into her space until she was trapped between him and the wall. "Yah?"

Sabine leaned right back, her eyes glinting as she traced a finger over the line of his collarbone without actually touching his image. "Yah. Did I ever tell you that you turned me into a puddle of want when I saw you in that cadet uniform the first time?"

Ezra shook his head, eyes widening.

"It was such a great colour on you and made your skin tone and blue eyes and hair really stand out. Fortunately, what the uniform represented was enough of a turn off that I almost even talked myself into believing that you were just a kid and not desirable boyfriend material."

Ezra choose to take all of that as a compliment whether it was or not and beamed proudly, making a mental note to self to buy some white shirts whenever he was back on Lothal. "Wow. You just made my day. And made that wait for you to see me as something other than a kid worth it. And just so you know, as far as I'm concerned, you could wear a plain beige sack and I'd still think you were gorgeous. You look good in everything you wear or not wear. I'm not picky when it comes to colours on you. They all look good. I think you're the most beautiful woman in the galaxy."

Sabine melted. Just melted. Like, puddle on the ground melted. She stepped even closer to Ezra's form, wishing she could kiss him properly right now. She raised her hands anyway and cupped the outline of his face, her fingers starting to tingle from the contact. "I didn't make you wait THAT long. Half a year isn't that bad. Hera once told me made Kanan wait much longer than that. But I think it's a good thing we were friends first. I think it made our relationship stronger."

Ezra wrapped his arms around her carefully, so as not to pass into her, and nodded in agreement. "I know having you as my best friend is one of the best things that ever happened to me. Yes, it would have been nice to kiss you way sooner, but look at the life we have now. Our bond isn't based on kisses. It's based on trust and friendship. And without that bond, I wouldn't be talking to you or sort of holding you right now. I think things worked out the way they were meant to."

Sabine felt her eyes get misty and blinked the moisture away. Ezra just kept surprising her with how perfect and mature he was. "Thank you for that, Ezra. I just wish you were really here right now so I could show you how much I love you."

Ezra sighed and pressed a ghostly kiss to her forehead. "I wish I was too, cyar'ika. I love you so much. But I have a surprise for you that I've been working really hard on."

Sabine raised a brow. "What is it?"

"I'll just show you." Ezra grinned and closed his eyes while he concentrated.

Sabine gasped as his face became vaguely solid in her hands. She could almost feel the texture of his skin under her fingers. And then he lowered his head to hers and kissed her gently for a few seconds, which she actually felt. (Kind of like the way you feel a strong wind even though air isn't solid.) Sabine hummed contentedly into his mouth and returned the kiss that she wanted to go on forever but was over way too soon, as his form returned to just a visible state. They sighed in unison and stared dreamily into each other's eyes for who knows how long while her mouth tingled from the contact deliciously.

Eventually Sabine sidled out from between him and the wall with a smile. "I have a surprise for you too, babe." She gestured towards the sliding glass doors that led into the apartment and Ezra blinked as he looked around, just noticing for the first time where they were.

"Those are new," he finally said, after taking in the refurbished balcony and the view of an already expanding Capital City in the distance.

Sabine led the way into the apartment, a smile of anticipation on her face. "That's not all that's new. I've made us our very own home."

Ezra walked into the big open concept space and stopped just inside the door as he took it all in. Sabine had painted the whole area in the palest of earth tones that were the perfect background for her colourful paintings that hung everywhere, and the equally colourful furniture. "It's perfect, Sabine," he breathed in wonder, amazed that this was the same dark and dusty space he used to live in.

Sabine beamed happily and continued the tour, showing him their state of the art refresher room with an extravagant tub big enough for both of them, and then their bedroom with the biggest bed he'd ever seen holding center stage, with covers and pillows in a blue and orange pattern. Ezra gawked at the bed for at least a minute as the very long list of things he wanted to do with Sabine in it ran through his mind, not speaking until Sabine prompted him to.

"Well? Do you like it?" she asked anxiously.

Ezra looked down at her and gave her his best dopey smile. "It's almost as perfect as you are, Sabine Wren."

Sabine relaxed and did her best to snuggle into his side, smiling up at him just as dopily, she was sure. "Thank you, Ezra. And it's Wren-Bridger now. I officially changed it."

Ezra stared at her, speechless for a moment at how much that meant to him. "Oh, Sabine. You're the best wife ever."

Sabine grinned. "I know, but hearing it is always good."

"Then I'll be Wren-Bridger too," Ezra declared. "It has a cool ring to it, don't you think?"

Sabine grinned wider, wishing she could kiss him right now, but now sure if he could do the solid thing again so soon or even in the same visit. "It does."

Ezra glanced at the bed again. "Do you think I could see you lying on that? Preferably without clothes? Maybe you can do something that will help with your earlier dilemma?"

Sabine inhaled as thoughts raced through her mind. Her fiery eyes went from the bed and then back to Ezra, turning all soft and sultry. "Perhaps I could. Would you like to watch and maybe help?"

Ezra's face split into a satisfied tooka grin. "Would I ever."

Sabine felt her core clench in desire at the idea of Ezra watching her pleasure herself. She quickly pulled her blouse over her head and shimmied out of her trousers and panties.

Ezra sucked in a breath at the knowledge that she hadn't been wearing a bra. And her body was still perfection in his eyes. He loved her strong lean muscles and curves.

Sabine walked backwards, eyes never leaving Ezra's, enjoying the look of desire and love on his handsome face. Her hands itched to bury themselves in his shaggy blue hair to hold him still while she kissed him senseless. When the back of her legs hit the bed, she crawled onto it, still backing up away from him, not stopping until she found a comfortable spot with her head on a pillow.

Ezra followed like he was mesmerized. He stopped at the edge of the bed, wondering what he should do next.

Sabine solved that for him. "Lose the clothes," she breathed huskily as she patted a spot on the bed beside her.

Ezra happily changed his concentration to alter his appearance so he was as naked as her and placed his image on the bed beside her in a rapt kneeling position. He bent down and placed a ghostly kiss against the gentle curve of her lips, not able to resist the temptation.

Sabine smiled up at him as he sat back up, raising a hand to her lips and rubbing a finger over the tingles left over from his touch. "Feel free to touch me as much as you want, Ez'ika. The tingles just make it better."

Ezra grinned, happy he could make her feel something. "It would be my pleasure, cyar'ika." He was going to enjoy this very much. (He could never have too many memories of Sabine to dream about at night.) At the same time, he still needed to keep his focus or he'd lose his Force projection and end up back in his body before he wanted to. (At least he didn't pass out anymore when he got back.) Ezra had a feeling he'd return to find his body quite ready to have its own self pleasuring session. And with the fresh images of Sabine touching herself in his mind, he'd probably explode in seconds.

Sabine drank in the sight of Ezra's strong copper toned skin and his brilliant blue eyes gazing at her adoringly. Just the idea of what they were doing was making her hot and wet. It felt so daring and naughty. She ran her hands down her sides, watching Ezra's eyes follow the movement. Her hands ran back up and cupped her breasts, rubbing the nipples lightly. She bit her lip invitingly as Ezra gasped at her boldness. "Touch them for me, babe," she whispered as her hands travelled back downwards.

Ezra complied immediately, placing his transparent hands on her boobs reverently, circling the nipples. Sabine moaned as they immediately started tingling like mad, shooting sparks straight down to her pussy. Her fingers delved between her legs and rubbed her clit, driving her passion higher. A finger from her other hand pressed into her tunnel and up into her g-spot. Sabine's eyes closed in bliss as her climax built in her at lightspeed. She'd never been so worked up so fast before when she was on her own. Having Ezra watch her made all the difference in the world.

Ezra was basically running through meditation chants to help him keep his focus right now. Sabine was so incredibly hot and sexy right now he could barely stand it. Her head was thrown back as ecstasy built in her expression. Her muscles were tight under her pale skin as her body strained for release. Her legs were spread, knees bent and feet planted on the bed as her back arched into the touch of her fingers. He replaced one of his hands on her breasts with his mouth, kissing it reverently, while the now free hand snaked down and joined hers between her legs.

Sabine gasped as she felt the tingles added to the sensations on her clit and she came hard, moaning, "Ezrrraaaa!" She rode the wave of pleasure until her body finally relaxed, opening her eyes and smiling at her husband. He had his chin more or less propped on her chest as he watched her face, looking both fascinated and very aroused. He took his hand off her mound and ran it up her side, leaving a trail of tingles. She smiled warmly and cupped the back of his head, indicating he should come up higher. "Can you do it again? Go solid?"

Ezra nodded and concentrated. Sabine felt the silky strands of his hair on her hand and smiled in bliss. She grabbed his head with both hands, burying her fingers in his hair and pulled him down she could kiss him properly, deep and hot and loving.

Ezra held it for as long as he could, savouring the kiss and feeling so turned on right now. He reluctantly pulled back when he felt his energy depleting quickly. "I'm sorry, Sabine. I can't hold it anymore," he apologized.

Sabine sighed as the feel of his hair disappeared and she felt like she was holding nothing but air again. "That's okay, Ezra. You did great. Thank you." She glanced down and saw his straining hardness. "I wish I could help you with that."

Ezra smiled ruefully. "Don't worry about it. That's practically going to take care of itself the moment I get back." He brushed her flushed cheek gently with the back of his fingers, wishing he had enough energy to feel her again. "I have to go now, Sabine, but I'll be back tomorrow. I love you."

Sabine smiled sweetly and sadly up at him. "Love you too, Ezra."

Ezra pressed one more imaginary kiss to her lips and left on a sigh.

Sabine wriggled around on the bed a little, still feeling aftershocks and tingles all over her body. She wanted Ezra back so they could cuddle properly in the afterglow. She wanted to make him feel as good as he made her feel. She just flat out wanted. Seeing him for half an hour every day was better than nothing, but Sabine wanted Ezra back for real. If someone had told her five years ago that she'd come to love having a man in her life day in and day out, she would have laughed and called that person insane. Now she craved Ezra's company even worse than when she was on Krownest for a few months without him, and that was bad enough.

A mournful little sigh escaped again as she rolled over and grabbed a pillow, hugging it to her chest as she curled around it. "Ez'ika," she whispered to herself. "I miss you."
