Disclaimer: Yeah as if I would be writing fan fiction if owned this.
Author's note: Well I hope ya'll liked the pregnancy twist. Here's a little explanation. I didn't exactly have that planned from the beginning of the fic, but I just couldn't get the idea out of my head. I was too lazy to give it a fic of it's own so I just decide to incorporate it. Sora Kairi: that was just the reaction I was hoping for. It was one twist I had yet to see in a fic. Movielover03: I'm glad you liked the twist I hope you don't think the next parts get predictable. Mara Jade: I'm glad I didn't incur your wrath and I hope to keep it that way.

Six months later.
Jaina groaned and rolled over as Jag tried to gently wake her.
"G way," she slurred, "five more minutes."
Jag smiled in amusement, he had never seen Jaina like this before. It was cute. She usually woke immediately as if it was a life and death situation, which of course, it usually was. Today was a different story, though. Today was the day her brother was getting married. The happy couple had decided to have a ceremony for the rest of the galaxy, even though they were already legally married.
Pounding on the door of their quarters jerked him out of his thoughts and succeeded in bringing Jaina to a rapid awareness of her surroundings.
"Just a moment," Jag called out pulling on appropriate clothing, as Jaina rolled off of the bunk and walked towards the 'fresher. He opened the door, to find a very anxious looking Jacen Solo standing outside. Everyone was acting oddly this morning. Jaina was hard to wake up and Jacen Solo, the poster boy for Jedi calm, was a nervous wreck.
However, Jag did know why Jacen was there. Knowing it was probably pointless because Jaina would already know, he nevertheless said, "Jacen's here, darling."
Years ago when they first started dating, the term of endearment would not have been something he said, but now in their privacy of their quarters with only her twin present, Jag didn't care.
"Thanks, Jag,' she said as she exited the 'fresher, "are you going to go get something to eat?"
He realized it was a suggestion as much as it was a question. He knew the twins wanted some privacy. "Yeah. You want me to bring you something," he asked.
Jaina smiled, "That would be great. I don't know if I'll have time before I have to get dressed to go to the mess."
"Okay," he said lightly. They exchanged a brief kiss before he left and Jaina turned to face her brother.
"Nervous, Jasa?" She asked dryly.
"Very," he said curtly.
"Why?" She asked gently, as she folded herself into a pose of meditation on the floor, "You guys have already been married for six months."
"Are you saying you wouldn't be nervous if you were marrying Jag, even for the second time?"
"This isn't about me and Jag, though," she pointed out with unusual gentleness, "this is about you. What's really bothering you," she asked raising her eyes to meet his.
"I don't know," he said vaguely. Silence reigned for a moment and then he added, "I don't want things to change between us, Jaya. You've always been my best friend and we've always been a team." The memory of Anakin hung unmentioned over their conversation. "I don't want that to change," he continued. "In some ways Tenel Ka knows me better than anyone else in the galaxy, but in the same since, you're my twin. You've always been there."
"And I will try my best to always be there in the future," Jaina promised. "Don't think of it as loosing something. I'm not planning on going anywhere."
"Good," he said and Jaina could feel him relax. Unconsciously she reached out hand to him and he grasped it without hesitation. It was a childhood habit. When they were younger, physical contact had made it easier for them to use their untrained powers for mischief or simply to connect. It had turned into a gesture of reassurance and before they knew it became an unconscious habit. As they had grown older and began to seek independence and individuality, it had begun to disappear. At odd moments like these, however, it still came out.
After a few moments of silence, Jaina asked, "Is Mom helping Tenel Ka get ready?"
"Yeah, I think so. She and Dad were bickering as usual earlier, so she probably thought she'd give Dad a chance to cool down before she tried to convince him to wear his dress uniform."
"Baby names, again," asked Jaina with a roll of her eyes as she enquired into what her parents had been squabbling about.
"You guessed it," Jacen responded. Then looking hopeful he added, "Hey I don't suppose your vision came with sound, huh?"
Jaina laughed at her brother's desperate hopefulness, "Not even Solo's are that lucky."
Jacen groaned in mock-horror. There parents relationship might have been solidly repaired since the disaster at Duro, but both twins remembered their parents real arguments well enough to look fondly on their parent's comfortable bickering. "Dad's still stuck on Hannah."
They shared a sympathetic look for their unborn sister. "Makes me glad I was a twin," Jaina observed, "I suppose Mom still wants to name her Jenna, after her childhood friend."
"Yeah, poor kid, her name depends on the two most stubborn people in the galaxy finding a compromise."
They shared a smirk and then broke into laughter. "Are you okay now," Jaina asked seriously once they had calmed down.
"Yeah," he answered casually, now back to his former self.
"Well good," she said bluntly, "now go. I have to change and I'll have enough distractions when Jag gets back."
"I'm sure you will," Jacen said unable to resist teasing his sister.
"Oh, get you mind out of the Sarlacc pit and grow up, Jacen," she snapped.
"Touchy point, sister dear," he added knowing it would infuriate her further.
It worked. "You had better get out of here, Jacen Solo, or I'll decapitate you and Tenel Ka would be very miffed if I did that to you today."
"Okay, okay," Jacen said relenting and backing towards the door. He had the innate Skywalker/ Solo defense mechanism that all of the men of the clan seemed to have. He knew when to stop pushing a woman, especially an angry force wielding, lightsaber proficient Goddess. Besides it was only a few hours until the ceremony and he certainly didn't want to be late on today of all days, or he would have another angry, force wielding, lightsaber proficient woman after him. That was a scarier thought than he even wanted to contemplate.
The rest of the wedding will appear in the next chapter, I hope you guys liked this one. Oh, BTW, if any of you are Alias fans, check out my fic When Time is Frozen over in the Alias section.
