The wind was howling and nipping at Han's skin. He was dragging his feet through the snow and he was obviously losing air and confidence quickly. "UGHH!!!" He moaned, and the snow storm started to pick up. He fell down onto the ground and the snow fell over him. He sunk into the cold death trap,, and then moaned one last sentence. "Leia…I'm sorry…"

I snapped my eyes open, cold sweat running down my face. "Han?" I asked, when I realized that he wasn't next to me, holding me like he did before I fell asleep. "HAN!!!!!!!" I screamed, and then got up and ran outside. "HAN???" I yelled and then ran to the other side of the fort. I wasn't paying attention and ran right into Han.

"Hey! Watch it!" He growled at me, holding the box up above his head to make sure I didn't run into it.

"Sorry." I said. "What's in the box?"

He grinned. "Come on, I'll show you." He put the box under his arm and then took my un-gloved hand in his warm, gloved one. He pulled me into our small hut and then sat me down, not letting go of my hand. "You're not wearing gloves."

"I know." I said. "I forgot to put them on."

"Here. Wear mine." He said, taking his off and passing them to me.

"They're too big."

"Leia…"

"Fine." I said, and then put on the over-sized gloves. He opened up the box and then stuck his hands in it.

"Close your eyes."

"Why?"

"Close them."

"But why?"

"LEIA!"

"FINE!" I huffed, and then closed my eyes.

"Now hold out your hands…"

"Han, it better not be something alive!!"

He placed something cold and hard in my hands. "Open 'em up, sweetheart." I opened my eyes up and then gasped.

It was a necklace!

I didn't know where he got it…but it was beautiful!

There was a simple silver chain that hung down and held up a cluster of beautiful diamonds with some blue pearls or beads mixed among it. "Han…it's…it's beautiful. Where did you get it?" I asked.

"Aw, Lei…you know…."

"Why are you being so nice to me?"

"What? A scoundrel can't be nice?"

"I never said that." I said.

"But you thought it…"

"Han, how can I ever thank you for such a beautiful gift?"

"Well…" He said, and then reached his arm around my waist. I jumped at his touch. Wait! Now I know why he gave me that necklace!

"You want me to sleep with you!" I said, standing up and placing my hands on my hips.

"Hey!" He protested, also standing up. "You did sleep with me last night!"

"Han, I meant the other way."

"Leia! I never knew you had such a dirty mind!" He gave me his famous smirk.

"HAN SOLO!!!!" I screamed.

"Okay, listen your worship! I just wanted to be nice and thoughtful and give you this gift, and all you want to do is accuse me of trying to seduce you!" He yelled, shoving his finger in my chest. I fell down onto the ground and he continued to yell at me as I continued to scoot away from him and into the corner of the small fort. "Why can't you just take me as a nice guy? 'Cause the only reason I stayed was because of you not the stupid rebel alliance!!! I STAYED BECAUSE OF YOU!!!" He yelled, and I shrunk down, but then lifted my head back up when I heard the last thing that he said.

"Because of me?" I asked, and Han moved back, shying away from me. "Why?" I asked as I stood up and walked towards him.

He shook his head. "No."

"Come on, Han…tell me."

"No."

"Please?" I asked, as I watched him sit down. I sat down next to him and rubbed his leg.

"Fine…because I care." He mumbled.

"Care? About me?"

"Yeah…about you." He moaned.

"That's….sweet." I smiled at him and then realized what I had to do. I sighed on the inside and then leaned up and gave him a small peck on the cheek.

So there's the chapter…please give me some ideas…IT'S A VERY LONG WEEK….so please give me some ideas, THANKS…

Toodles,
