Day 7- Platonic Living Together AU: Rex + Ahsoka

Moving in with Ahsoka to help reduce the amount of rent they were paying was undoubtedly a good idea. She hadn't thought twice about it when Rex asked, so he knew she was comfortable. And of course, they both appreciated having a little extra pocket money.

What they hadn't been expecting was for the plumbing in Rex's shower to suddenly stop working the first week after they moved in.

As annoyed as Rex was, he was grateful that Ahsoka was willing to pitch in any extra funds should he need them; even after he repeatedly claimed he would pay what he needed to himself. It didn't stop her from insisting (as it never did).

But all that aside, it was nice when Ahsoka immediately said he could use her shower as long as he needed. Rex didn't even have to ask, and simply smiled as she continued on normally with her day.

Excited for dinner, Rex finished drying off after his shower. He hung his towel up, staring one last time at the extensive amount of hair on the shower wall before leaving the room.

"I hope you actually cooked vegetables this time!" Rex called as he walked out to the kitchen.

"I've never not cooked vegetables with dinner!" Ahsoka yelled back. "I cook them every time, and you know it!"

"Yeah," Rex snickered as he went to sit at the table. "And every day I hope you do it again."

"Well," she exclaimed loudly coming out from the kitchen. "If you are so worried about getting your vegetables." She put his plate front of him. "You are more then welcome to make your own dinner." She sat down across from him with her own plate and stared at him pointedly.

Rex only laughed. "I offered to cook every now and then, and you insisted you could do it since you would be back sooner. Besides, dinner looks wonderful, and the steak smells really good!"

Ahsoka's face relaxed and she began to cut her steak. "Thank you!" she beamed. "Enjoy, because I don't know when we'll get more."

"I enjoy everything you cook," Rex said. "Also, do you always lose so much hair in the shower?"

Ahsoka's brow furrowed as she put a piece of meat in her mouth. She chewed, looking at him with nothing but confusion on her face.

She finally swallowed. "What do you mean?"

"The hair on the shower wall," Rex said pointing towards the bathroom. "There's a lot of it. Is that normal?"

"Yes…" she replied slowly. "Why?"

"I've never seen anything like that."

"You've never lived with a girl before, let alone shared a shower with her," Ahsoka laughed. "But, yeah, it's normal. Ask pretty much any girl with long hair. It's normal."

Rex wasn't entirely convinced, and he was sure his face said so.

"I bet you lose that much hair when you shower, too," Ahsoka continued. "But that just washes right down the drain. It doesn't get caught in itself, or your back, or your hands when your rinsing your hair. It just all washes away."

Rex shook his head. "Unbelievable. It still looks weird."

Ahsoka shrugged. "I'll take care of the monster from the deep after dinner."

Rex stared at her as she continued to eat. "You're so strange."

"You too!" she answered cheerily.

"I can't wait to have my shower back," Rex muttered with a smile on his face.
