Screw but...

Ezra POV

I have been as 'good' as I could bear to be for the last couple days to try and get myself some leeway with my 'Boyfriend' Thrawn, I not only wore that hideous green and pink dress with minimal complaint, I let him touch my butt. But this humiliation will serve a purpose.

Today I get to wear pants, and it's a lot easier to crawl through vents in pants than even an above the knee skirt. (Trust me, I tried, ended up leaving a blood trail).

I forced myself to cuddle deeper into Thrawn's chest, one arm pinned between his head and the arm of the couch and my face leant up against his neck just above the collar of his white crew neck shirt, his hand draped behind my back.

Thrawn's breathing slowed as he relaxed at the edge of sleep.

The purple rope doesn't reach the living room couch we're curled up on.

After what felt like an eternity, finally I heard him start to snore softly and I began to back out of the embrace slowly.

Almost there... Just a little more...

Ring! Ring! Thrawn's comn buzzed loudly awakening the partner I had so patiently been lulling to sleep.

He groggily answered "Yes General? How can I 'Yawwwn' serve you?" as he got up.

A bit of static made it hard for me to understand the comm's voice as it said "My Admiral, Sorry to interupt your personal time but you are required in the pantaki system. Report there at once" The voice on the other side of the line sounded exhausted and angry, with the pew of blaster bolts and battle in the background.

At least he's on his way out. I thought. "sorry to cut our special time short my pet, duty calls." He yawned, kissing my cheek before climbing out from behind me and back into 'our' bedroom to get dressed.

"Don't Die" I yelled, before adding quietly, "and tell my family I said hi if you see them,"

I hope he doesn't. If the Emperor where to see my crew escape from Thrawn too much, he would think I turned the Chiss into a rebel. If they don't, Thrawn will have to have them executed and I would kill him for that. Either way if I don't get out before then we are both screwed.
