Characters: Leia Organa-Solo
Rated: K+
Genre: Angst / Romance
AN: A tiny missing moment from the Black Fleet Series, where Han is taken prisoner and very nearly beaten to death (srsly, it's awful). Loosely follows chpt 45 of this series (Brave).
"It's me, I'm sorry it's so late-"
"What's wrong?"
"I... I was hoping I could ask you a favour."
"Sure, Leia, anything."
"Han's home tonight. I can't have the kids see him yet, not until..." her voice trailed off.
"I'll come over. Are you staying at the med-centre with him?"
"Yes." her voice was tiny, strained with tears, worries, guilt and doubt.
"I'm on my way."
"Thank you." she breathed, not trusting herself to try and speak.
"Hey, Leia, it's fine. I'm happy to help. Are you okay?"
"I will be. I just need to see him."
"I'll see you in 20 minutes."
"Thank you, Wedge." The line went dead and she sank back into the wide, leather desk chair of her husband's office, curling herself closely into the worn material.
He's coming home; back to her, back to them.
And that all that mattered.
