Honeymoon time, because you know HL Deserve it!
Chapter Two
Night had come and everyone had slowly departed. Han and Leia stood in the small cabin, looking around at their daughter, Luke, Chewie and his family. They were all that was left now, and now that Han and Leia were taking their leave, it was time to say goodbye. Leia was still in her wedding dress, and Han couldn't help but run his fingers along that cut out on her back. Adelyn had changed out of her purple dress and was now in her pajamas, but she had insisted on keeping her new necklace around her neck. She loved the piece and didn't want to part with it. The young girl sat beside her Uncle Luke on the couch, listening to her mother speak.
"Now Luke we have this cabin rented for the next few days. You can stay here with her or take her back to Yavin, Kashyyyk, whatever works best for you," Leia explained. "We won't be far…I think," Leia said glancing to her husband. Han had decided on the honeymoon spot without telling Leia. He'd assured her they'd be staying on Corellia, just away from the wedding spot. Adelyn would be staying with her Uncles. Luke and Chewie had been pleased to take care of her while Han and Leia were away, and looked forward to the time with her.
"Leia, we'll be alright. I've taken care of her before. Besides, Chewie and I got this," Luke assured his sister. Looking down to his niece he smiled. Leia knew her daughter would be perfectly fine with her Uncles, but she knew she would miss her daughter. Besides the few times Han had had Adelyn alone, Leia hadn't been away from her daughter for extended times. It was something she had decided on when Adelyn was just a baby. And while she knew she wanted this alone time with her husband, she also wanted to make sure Adelyn was comfortable.
"They'll be fine, Leia," Han whispered down to her, his fingers still tracing over her exposed back.
"I know," She sighed. "We have to go baby, come give me a hug," Leia told Adelyn, as the young girl jumped up and towards her mother. Leia held her tight, kissing her forehead.
"You looked pretty today Mom," She told Leia and Leia smiled.
"Thank you sweetheart, You going to miss me?"
"Yes," She nodded. "But I'll be fine," she said with a quick nod of her head.
"Good," Leia said with a smile. "Give your dad a hug."
Han leaned down and opened his arms for his daughter. She jumped into his hold, as he lifted her up and held her. Her little head rested against his neck, and Han knew he would miss her the next few days. He'd have to focus on the much needed alone time with his…wife. What a great word that was now, wife!
"You'll be a good girl?" Han asked.
"I'm always good," She said, looking offended. Everyone laughed and Han nodded.
"Love you Princess."
"Love you too Dad."
"You two should get going?" Luke suggested, moving to take his niece from Han.
"We should," Han agreed.
"I love you," Leia told Adelyn, before turning to Luke and Chewie. "Thank you for taking care of her."
"Of course," Chewie said with a nod.
"Have a good honeymoon," Luke added.
"Oh we will," Han said with a smirk., taking hold of Leia's hand and squeezing gently. With one last goodbye, Han and Leia slowly made their way out of the small cabin and towards their rented speeder. Han helped Leia slip her dress inside the vehicle, before moving around to his side and starting it up.
"You going to tell me where we're headed?" Leia questioned, her hand reaching over and her finger tips dancing over the back of his neck. Han smiled, and leaned over to kiss her.
"Not yet," He sad softly.
"Alright," Leia sighed.
The hum of the speeder started up, and Leia relaxed back into her seat. She was tired from the days events, but her mind was awake. She replayed the days events. Getting ready, spending time with Adelyn and finally marrying Han. Then her mind drifted to all the guests that had been there to show their love and support for Han and Leia's union. It was a good day, and she felt unbelievably happy right now. Glancing down to her ring, Leia smiled.
"Lots of smiles from you today Mrs. Solo," Han noted, glancing over to where his wife sat.
"I'm very happy today, Mr. Solo."
"Good," He said reaching down and pulling her hand up to his lips. Leaning over, Leia rested her head against Han's shoulder. She drew patterns over his leg, a loving touch, as her eyes slowly closed. The hum of the speeder and it's gentle movements along the planets, made Leia slowly drift into a much needed rest.
She wasn't sure how much time had passed, but suddenly she felt the speeder turn off and Han call her name.
"Leia, sweetheart?" He whispered down to her. She felt his lips against her temple and she smiled. "More smiles," Han noted.
"Are we there?" She asked, her eyes fluttering open.
"We are, It's pretty dark. You'll have a better view in the morning."
"Where are we?" She questioned.
"Come on." Han said, helping her to stand up and out of the speeder. Leia's eyes glanced around the the grounds. Wherever they were, she didn't see any houses around them. Looked as if Han had chosen a rather secluded location. She could see a few trees around what she assumed was their honeymoon spot. Walking forward, she lifted the end of her dress up, as Han led her towards what would be their home for the next week. She could make out slight carved details to the outside of the home, and could smell nothing but fresh air. If she focused enough, she was sure she could hear water. But she didn't think they were at the beach anymore. Coming to the front door, Han reached his hand out and palmed them into the space. The lights flickered on and Leia smiled. The small space was perfect for their time away. The large room was so very flowy and open. She noted the small kitchen to the side of them as they continued to walk inside the home. Up ahead she could make out a large bed at the center of the home, facing outward to what looked like a balcony. It was all one big open space, nothing to separate much of anything.
"Han this is lovely," She noted.
"You like it?" He questioned. He sure hoped she did. When he'd been looking for something, this had jumped out at him and he had thought it would be perfect. Nothing too fancy, something simple for them. They didn't need much, and the relaxing atmosphere of this place had pulled him in.
"I do, it's amazing," Leia said walking forward and towards the large white bed. There were many small windows on the sides of the walls, that offered small peaks out at the trees and the breeze of the wind outside. The wood carvings continued inside the home, making Leia think of anything but Coruscant. "A Balcony?" Leia questioned, stepping forward to the doors in front of her. Han stepped forward and nodded, taking hold of her hand and leading her forward. The doors opened and Leia was once again met with that fresh air. Although it was rather dark, she could still make out the view in front of them. Stepping further out on to the balcony, Leia smiled yet again. The view was spectacular and showed a new body of water for miles as well as forests, distant mountains and hills.
"Wow," She whispered out.
"You like?" Han asked, wrapping his arms around her middle and whispering in her ear.
"It's beautiful," She answered, looking down at the way the stars reflected down on the waters surface.
"You'll be able to see a bit more in the morning, it's quite a view. These lakes are rather popular. I figured we had a enough beach time, I wanted to take you some place a little different, but still give you some of that quietness you love so much."
"It's perfect."
"Good, I'm going to grab the bags," Han said kissing her neck twice, before stepping away from his new bride and making his way back out to the speeder. Leia looked out at the water, and watched as it rippled and moved. Taking a deep breath, she let the cool air feel her lungs, and shivered as her skin goose bumped. She could hear Han moving back into the home, but her eyes stayed set on the water out across from them. She had only been here for a few short minutes, but she already love this balcony, and she couldn't help but notice the hot tub off to the side of the space. She knew they'd be using that while here. Han quickly switched off the lights inside the main room, making the stars easier to see and the lake shine for miles.
"Leia," He whispered against her ear, coming to stand behind her again. She immediately leaned back into his hold, her fingers running along his arms. They both looked out at the night sky, the cool air feeling chilly against their warm skin, but Han's arms around her easily warmed her body.
"Hmmm," She hummed softly.
"You tired?" He asked her, wondering if her nap on their journey here had done anything at all. Leia smiled to herself, before slowly turning around and facing him. She looked up at him, and ran her fingers along his jawline. Her patterns traced over his jaw and up to his lips, before leaning in and kissing him softly. She could feel his fingers running up her back and tracing her spine. They both sighed against each others lips, puling away softly.
"Will you help me take my hair down?" She questioned, as he nodded softly, reaching up to pull at the pins that kept her hair off her shoulders. His fingers felt delicate against her scalp as he pulled her long locks down, and slowly massaged against her head. Han smiled down at her, watching her eyes close and a soft sigh escape her lips. Her hair fell down and around her shoulders and back. The little pieces of flowers falling to the balcony's floor. Leia was his wife, Han couldn't help but think. I'm the luckiest man in this galaxy, his thoughts added.
"Leia?"
"Hm?" She mumbled back.
"Hows it feel to be Mrs. Solo?" Han asked her softly, and Leia smiled.
"Amazing," She answered, before opening her eyes and kissing his chin. She smirked as his fingers traced over her bare back once more, slightly tugging at the material of her dress. Stepping back and out of his hold on her, Leia smiled at his confused expression. Reaching down she gripped the soft material of her dress and pulled it up and over her body. Han watched as her dress revealed her legs, up over her stomach and passed her chest, to up over her head. Han blinked a few times, wondering if he was really seeing this wonderful woman in front of him. Leia smirked as she watched him take in her almost nude figure. The tiny lace lingerie that covered along her hips barely covered much of anything. And with her dress gone her chest was left bare for her husbands viewing pleasure. The cold air prickled against Leia's skin but her body felt hot against Han's gaze.
"So I take it you're not tired?" Han teased with a smirk, stepping closer to where his wife stood. She was quite a vision there, standing in the night air, with nothing but the dark lake and stars behind her. This was definitely a moment he would remember for a while.
"No…" She trailed off. Her fingers reached out and touched against his shirt. Han's hands easily found her hips and rested his fingers along the top of the lace fabric covering her. Leia sighed, as his fingers massaged her hips and ran up against her bare sides. Her breathing hitched as his hands ran from her sides and across her chest, cupping against her breasts. Taking a slow breath, Leia tried to calm her erotic breathing, and focused on her current task of getting Han out of his clothes. Her fingers quickly undid the buttons of his shirt bit by bit, her fingers tracing along his chest and stomach as she did so.
"Leia," Han groaned out, not being able to stop his touch against her smooth skin. His touch ran over her chest, down her stomach and toyed with the lace edge of her lingerie. He stared only at her, as she delicately pushed his shirt open and moved to pull it from his body. Once his chest was open to the cool air, Han immediately grabbed Leia and pulled her body flush against his. Their bare chests pressed together, making everything feel anything but cold in the night air. Leia's hand traced over his chest, before dropping kisses across his skin. He could feel the cool metal of her wedding ring pressed against his skin, and the hot pressure of her touch and lips with each kiss.
Not being able to hold back any longer, Han moved and lifted her chin, crushing his lips into hers. The simple kisses and touches had been nothing compared to the kiss they shared now. They both let small moans escape against the kiss, as their lips and tongues massaged in familiar patterns against each other. Neither wanted to pull away, and only did when air became desperate. Their hot breath fell against their skin, neither pulling too far apart from one another.
"Han?"
"Hmm?" He questioned, in a bit of a haze after that kiss.
"I love you." Her big brown eyes looked up at him with such love and adoration, something Han had once thought he would never truly see from someone. He stared back at her no knowing how he could ever tell her or show her how much he loved her. Offering her a small grin, Han leaned forward.
"I know," He whispered back, before dropping his kisses down her face and to her jawline. His lips sucked against her skin there, continuing his mouths exploration down her neck. Leia's small sounds only urged him on, with each moan she released he kissed her harder longer and explored more of her skin with his lips.
Finding the top of his pants, Leia's fingers traced there for a short while, before finding the clasp and quickly pulling at the material. Han's kisses along her body were driving her wild, and making her brain go a bit foggy. She quickly tugged and pushed his pants completely down, both of them stepping together, as he kicked them off. His lips found her's again, holding her close and tracing over her skin. Their closeness made it easy for her to slip her hand under his boxers and stroke slightly against him. He groaned against her lips, her soft touch and grasp around his hardness making his fingers dig into her hips and pull her closer. He continued to mumble her name against their lips, making Leia smirk and run her fingers in a delicate pattern. His own fingers pulled against the lace that covered her, tugging slightly at the fabric and pulling it down her thighs. It was Leia's turn to step back as the lace fell down her legs and she tossed it over near Han's pants. They briefly pulled back from their kiss, smiles were exchange and words of love and passion, before Han swiftly lifted her up and into his arms. He almost thought to close the balcony doors as he walked them towards their large bed.
"Leave them open," She whispered against his ear. Han nodded, gently laying her across the soft fabric of their bed. Her hair stretched out and around her, making her look like some sort of art piece. Her pale skin was almost glowing against the light from the stars. He stood back and looked down at her with a gaze that made Leia shiver. He shoved his boxers down his legs and moved to climb across the bed to where his wife lay.
"You're staring," She mumbled against her hand, as she tried to hide a small smirk that played across her lips. Han nodded, of course he was staring.
"Might wanna get used to me staring Princess," He told her, leaning over top of her body. His chest rubbed across her skin, and she couldn't help but sigh against his touch. His fingers tips ran down her body, drawing patterns over her breasts before circling across her stomach and down against her hip and between her thighs. Leia's eyes fluttered shut, as his movements made her bite against her lip. Such a familiar touch, but never not good, never dull, no. Her whole body was arching against his hand, as she felt his lips find her neck once more. Her head was pressed back against the pillows, making it easy for her husband to find the skin against her jawline, and down to her shoulders.
She made a pattern of biting her lip, before mumbling his name over and over again. She wasn't sure how the room could be so cool from the night air, but her body could feel so scorched from his touch.
"Han…" She whimpered out, her hands moving his face back to hers and forcing their lips together.
"Hmm wife?" Han questioned against their kiss and Leia let out a soft giggle. That was her now.
"Husband," She said with a pleading tone, arching her hips up and against him. He smiled down at her kissing her once more and adjusting his hips against her body. She offered him a soft gasp that quickly turned into a groan as he slowly moved inside of her. Her leg lifted up and around his hip, her whole body still arching against his movements. Their fingers interlocked, the cool metal of their rings rubbing against their skin.
"Good?" He mumbled against her ear his voice hoarse with want, and Leia mumbled out some sort of reply, of course it was good, it always was with him. She couldn't find real words, but she hoped to the gods he knew what she meant. She was having a sensory overload, the combination of the cold air from the night around them, the soft fabric against her back and Han's heated touch along her body, she wondered if her head would explode. His hips moved in a delicious pattern, a pattern that only Han knew drove Leia wild. His constant nips and kisses against her neck, she knew her skin would be marked up for days. Good thing she didn't have any plans on seeing other people for the next week. Pushing her hand against his chest, she pushed her leg against his hips and slowly rolled them over. Han's back hit against the soft fabric and sighed, theres another sight he wouldn't be forgetting anytime soon. The image of Leia flushed, smiling and on top of him was definitely a good sight.
His fingers dug into her hips, and she briefly wondered if she would have marks along that skin as well, not that she minded. No, he felt too good, his touches felt too right to complain. Reaching up, Leia pulled at her long hair and tossed it to one side of her shoulder. Han smiled up at her, and she couldn't help but lean down and kiss his lips. Every movement and touch, was sending them both closer and closer to a pleasing end. Some how they wanted it to last all night, but it was too good to resist that long. Han reached out and took hold of her hand, kissing over her wedding ring, as his other hand ran up her chest cupping against her breasts and drawing circles over her collar bone. Her sounds were only getting louder, and her words more mumbled together. He knew her, all too well he knew her and her body. Reaching his touch out, he ran a familiar pattern across her center and watched as Leia threw her head back and cried falling over the edge of the constant lead up of pleasure they had been toying with all night. Her release only pushed Han further, and soon he fell over the edge as well. Leia fell against his chest, her hair messy and tangled against his bare skin. Both of their breathing was rough and labored. Neither wanted to move, but slowly Leia rolled her body and took a deep breath as she looked up at the ceiling above them.
"So…" Han mumbled, pushing his face into her neck. "Married life," He smirked and Leia let out a soft laugh.
"Pretty good so far," She answered, turning to look at him.
"Good," Han said dropping a kiss to her temple, and stroking across her cheek. Gods he loved this girl.

Leia's eyes fluttered open, looking up at the cabin's ceiling. She stretched her arms out and above her shoulders. Her body felt relaxed, but exhausted at the same time. What time had they finally fallen asleep? She didn't know and didn't care, she didn't need to care, not while they were here and away from it all. Taking a deep breath, the fresh air filled her lungs and sent a shiver down her spine. Glancing out, she looked out the open doors, the sun was glistening on the top of the water, the slight breeze was cooling and brought such a fresh scent into their rented home. You'd never get this fresh air on Coruscant. She was overly pleased with Han's pick for their getaway. The home was lovely and just what she needed. The view of the lakes was breathtaking and offered them a different scenery from the beach they had so recently seen. Yawning, Leia looked to her side, hoping to find her husband still in bed next to her. She sighed as she found his side of the bed empty. Her body slowly sat up, wrapping the thin sheet around her bare body. The breeze still filtered into the whole of the room, causing goosebumps to prickle against her skin, but she didn't mind. The air was warmer then the night before, the sun clearly heating up this part of the planet.
Hearing movement behind her, Leia glanced back and smiled at the sight of her husband. He was carrying a tray over to her, as her nose caught the smell of breakfast. She let a giddy smile fall across her face, as she watched him bring her breakfast in bed. He offered her a surprised smile.
"You're awake."
"I am."
"I was hoping to wake you myself," Han said with a smirk, leaning over and kissing her lips.
"Breakfast in bed?" She questioned.
"Only the best for my wife," Han said, kissing her lips once more. "Couple choices for you," He added, nodding to the plates in front of them.
"It smells amazing." Leia smiled brightly, pulling at Han's arm as he moved to fully sit beside her. The tray rested easily against the end of the bed, as Leia cuddled up to Han's chest.
"Good Morning wife," Han whispered to her, kissing her forehead, and down her face.
"Good morning husband."
"You haven't brought me breakfast in bed in a while…" Leia thought out loud.
"Bespin," Han noted, looking down to her. Leia smiled at the memory, when their relationship was so new and they were exploring what it actually meant. He'd surprised her with breakfast in bed, consisting of something silly like granola bars and caf. But she hadn't minded it all, it was the gesture. Thinking back to that day made her feel a little dizzy. Things had changed so much since then.
"Thank you for breakfast," She said, grabbing one of the berries off the plate and popping it in her mouth.
"No problem Princess. Sleep well?"
"I passed out, someone wore me out," She said arching an eyebrow.
"Isn't that the point of a honeymoon?" Han asked with a laugh.
"Maybe, I haven't been on one before," She smiled. Her eyes glanced over to the open doors, Han had been right the night before. The view was even better with the sun lighting up the lakes. You could see the distant mountains much clearer and the length of the lakes seemed so much greater with the light. "The view is amazing Han," She said, nodding forward.
"I hoped you'd like it," He said, kissing her shoulder.
"I do, This place is amazing."
"Wait till you see the surrounding grounds."
"We're leaving the bed?" She teased and Han laughed.
"I figured we could explore a bit, we are alone for miles, so clothing is always optional."
"My funny husband," She said leaning in an kissing his chin. Han slowly traced his fingers over Leia's hair, brushing it back behind her ear. Looking down he smirked, noting the blotches across her neck.
"Do me a favor and don't look in the mirror."
"How many marks?" She asked, with a fake frown. She tried to glare at him, but the smile came through her eyes and Han laughed.
"A few…"
"I figured as much, your lips were all over me last night," she said, her mind drifting back to the delicious touches.
"Can't help it."
Leia picked at the food, taking turns looking out at the view and back towards her husband.
"You better eat some of this, I can't eat it all on my own."
"Yeah yeah," Han mumbled, taking a bite of some of the food. Leaning over Leia laid back against the bed. Stretching her arms up and over her shoulders, Han smirked watching her. It was the first day of their honeymoon and she already felt so relaxed and at ease. Leia turned her head to the side and looked out at the balcony doors. It looked like a beautiful day. Han stared at her for a moment before quickly crawling over her, making Leia let out a giggle. Han rested his head against his bent arm, half on top of Leia.
"What are you doing?" Leia questioned.
"Laying with my wife."
"Hmm," She mumbled softly, still stretching her arms up and around her. Han's hand slowly inched the sheet down Leia's body, smirking as she rolled her eyes. Leaning in Han kissed her collar bone. "What are we doing today?" Leia asked, her eyes fluttering open and closed with the feel of Han's kisses along her skin.
"Whatever you want," Han mumbled.
"You said something about hiking?" Leia asked, looking down at him, as his head rested against her chest.
"Something small? Just to show you the area?"
"Sounds good. I will be getting dressed for the hike. I'm not hiking naked."
"Never mind, no hiking, we'll lay here all day," Han teased her.
"Were there any messages this morning?" She asked.
"Nope, She's fine Leia. Adelyn is comfortable with Luke and Chewie."
"I know she is. I just worry about her," Leia said with a sigh. Han nodded and ran his hand over her face.
"You're a good mom, of course you worry about her."
"You think she'll miss us?"
"They're going to make sure she's having fun, maybe she'll miss us towards the end of the week."
"Ok."
"You deserve some relaxation time, sweetheart."
"So do you," She added, running her fingers down his chin.
"Eat your breakfast, Then we can head out," Han said leaning in and kissing her lips once more, before standing up and walking out to the balcony. Leia smirked, and slowly moved the tray of food to the side table. She stared at him for a moment, watching the muscles move on his bare back. He stretched his arms over the railing and looked out at the water. Leia smiled and couldn't help but sit up and let the sheet fall from her body.
"Hey husband?" She questioned, leaning up on her knees. Han slowly turned his head around and smirked at the sight of her.
"I'm not quite ready to leave this bed yet," She said with a small grin. Han smirked and slowly walked back towards her.
"Not ready yet?" He asked, running his gaze up and down her body.
"Not yet, a little longer?"
"Anything the wife wants," He whispered down to her, coming to cup her face and quickly leaning down to bring their lips together. Maybe they could go hiking tomorrow, because now Han wasn't sure he wanted to leave this bed at all today.

Han couldn't help but grin as he watched Leia walk up and down the small trail near their honeymoon home. It seemed as if he had made a great choice for their getaway spot. They weren't near the ocean this time, and not quite in the mountains. Some where in the middle had worked great for them. Leia was enjoying the fresh air and the small hikes, and the view of the lakes was something she had greatly enjoyed. She loved them at night, with the stars shining across the waters surface and she loved it in the morning, watching the sun shimmer across it for miles. Today was the first day they had made it out of the house and into the trees. They'd been much to preoccupied with each others, or maybe each others bodies. Neither had wanted to leave their bed for some time, but today they had finally pulled away from each other long enough to walk this trail. It wasn't anything crazy, just a simple route near where they were staying. It offered a few different views of the lakes, and some beautiful cliffs nearby. Leia was enjoying herself and that was all Han cared about.
"I think I'm out of shape," Leia said, a little out of breath as they slowed and took small sips from their canteens. Han laughed at her, glancing down to her more then fit body. His hand quickly slipped around her middle and pulled her close to him.
"I think you'r shape is just fine." Han said with another laugh. Leia offered him an eye roll and pushed at his chest.
"Shh you."
"You feel fine to me," He added, his hand slowly sliding down her back and resting against her backside. Leia laughed at him, thinking nothing but how silly her husband was.
"I haven't done this type of exercise in a while, but I like it. It's refreshing. I enjoy hiking," She explained.
"I'm glad you like this spot Leia."
"Of course I like it. I would have liked anywhere you picked."
"So if I told you we were going back to Coruscant for our honeymoon?"
"Well…maybe not there," Leia laughed. "I like it here. I like being able to visit your home," She said resting her head against his chest. Han smiled and rand circles over her hips and up her back.
"I'm happy to share it with you Princess."
"I want Adelyn to see different parts of Corellia too," She said softly. "She can't see Alderaan. I want her to know at least a bit of where she comes from."
"Of course she will. Just because Alderaan is gone, doesn't mean she won't understand it, or it won't be a part of her."
"Hmm," She hummed softly, relaxing into his hold. "I love you Han Solo."
"I love you too, Leia Organa…Solo," He said softly, kissing the top of her head. Leia smiled against his chest, always feeling so warm and content in his arms.
"We should probably head back soon?" She questioned, her voice hushed against his body.
"Probably soon," Han said with an nod, looking out at the view over the cliff they stood beside.
"I was thinking," she said looking up at him and placing her chin against his chest. "We have that hot tub, and my muscles are going to be so sore after this hike," She trailed off. Han smirked down at her and nodded.
"Go on."
"I was just thinking we could both enjoy some relaxation in that hot tub, What do you say?" She questioned with an innocent look. Han let out a deep laugh and quickly nodded his head.
"Race you back?" He questioned, and Leia groaned.
"My legs might turn to mush."
"I'll carry you," Han said, immediately lifting her up and into his arms.
"Han! You Put me down!" She squealed, hitting at his chest.
"I'm taking care of your legs!" He tried to argue, but all she did was squirm in his hold.
"Han!"
"Alright alright," He said with a sigh, putting her back to the ground.
"Scoundrel," she muttered, as Han leaned in and kissed her cheek.
"Let's get home," He suggested, taking hold of her hand and leading her back down the path. Leia nodded her head softly, following along side him. They stayed quiet for most of the journey back, stopping to talk about different trees and flowers they passed. The view was beautiful no matter where they stood, it put both of their minds at ease to have such a beautiful site at each turn. Passing by a few familiar plants, Leia pointed them out.
"Do you like Hsuaberry?" Leia asked, looking towards the fruit growing near the trail head.
"I did as a child, they're a little sweet for me now."
"I thought you liked sweet things?" She teased.
"I like my Princesses sweet," He said tugging at her arm. Leia laughed and rolled her eyes.
"I'm hardly sweet, you should know that by now. I loved those berry's when I was pregnant. I swear all my cravings were Corellian. She took after you at an early age."
"Interesting, I wonder if you'd have the same cravings."
"The same?" she asked, as they followed down the rocky path, nearing their home.
"I mean, if you got pregnant again. I wonder if the cravings would be the same."
"Hmm," Leia hummed softly. "I'm not sure."
"Did you think about other kids when you were pregnant?" Han asked and Leia laughed at him.
"I wasn't in the mind set for that. Had to focus on the one," She said glancing over at him. She watched him nod, and she smiled up at him. "I've thought about it more since you came back."
"Oh ya?"
"You know I have," She said shaking her head.
"I think about it too."
"I know. We've both said it's something we want,"
"I look forward to it," Han quickly said.
"A baby? Or me pregnant?"
"Both!"
"Oh sweetheart, you shouldn't look forward to pregnant me," Leia laughed.
"Why not? I missed out on all of it the first time around."
"I know you did, It's just. I had the war to focus on last time and I still had my hormonal bits and cravings and emotions were up and down."
"I know that… Leia," Han said slowly. "I look forward to all of that. I don't care how crazy you get. I'll go get you Hsuaberry's in the middle of the night if you want. I want to go through all of it, next time…" He told her honestly. Leia slowed her walking and squeezed his hand.
"You're such a good man Han Solo."
"I don't know what you're talking about, I've been told I'm a scoundrel."
"You are! You're my Scoundrel, but you're also an amazing father and already a really lovely husband," She said leaning up and kissing his chin.
"Good to know sweetheart."
"Come on, that hot tub is calling me," She said practically skipping towards the house.
—-
The hot water consumed her body, as Leia leaned back against the side of the tub. Her eyes opened and closed, feeling too relaxed to fully decide if she wanted them open to stare out at the lakes, or closed to fully enjoy the heat and pressure of the jet behind her back. She let out a small moan, adjusting her shoulders further into the water. She'd been in the hot tub for a few minutes already, and couldn't help but wonder where her husband had gone. He'd promised to be quick, but she still sat here alone in the hot water. Glancing up, she noted the sky as it darkened, their day coming to an end. It had been a good day, she'd enjoy the hiking and the time alone with her husband. But her muscles were sore and this water felt so good against her skin. Her ears focused a bit as she tried to listen for Han. He was walking around the inside of the house, but the bubbles around her made it hard to hear his exact movements. She sighed, taking a deep breath and closing her eyes once again. She was having such a good time on this honeymoon. She missed Adelyn, and had spoke to her a few times, but the time away from their busy life was so nice. Leia wasn't sure she was ready to go back to Coruscant at the end of the week. Part of her brain wanted to pick Adelyn up and whisk her and Han away from that crazy planet. But she also knew the time wasn't right. Not right now, but the future held so many possibilities for them.
Hearing Han's footsteps coming closer, Leia opened her eyes and looked to the side. Han smirked, glancing down to her. Her whole body submerged, except her head. Her smile shined up at him, and he quickly moved to lean down and kiss her.
"Where'd you go?" She questioned, sitting up a bit.
"Grabbed these," Han said, holding up the glasses of wine. Leia smirked, and reached forward for the glass. Sipping the red liquid, Leia sighed and moved forward as Han moved to sit behind her. Glancing over her shoulder, Leia couldn't help but stare at him. They'd been constantly staring at each other this whole trip, perhaps the lack of clothing or the new title of husband and wife. They both couldn't help it. Han smirked as he caught Leia staring. Leaning in, he kissed the back of her neck and over to her shoulder. Leia sighed and let out a slow breath, as she leaned back and relaxed her body against Han's chest.
"How's the water?" She asked him.
"It feels amazing," He told her, slipping his hand around her and resting his palm against her upper stomach.
"My back feels so much better," She said softly.
"Good," Han said, dropping another few kisses against her shoulder.
"It's nice out here."
"It is."
"I never want to leave," She admitted softly.
"We'll stay forever, Luke will bring Adelyn here. We'll drop everything and hide away," Han mumbled against her neck.
"If only," Leia whispered, dipping her hand under the water and running her finger tips over Han's forearm. "I love it here, Han."
"Good,"
"It's been a nice way to start this time with you. As your wife."
Han nodded, as they both looked up towards the stars. Leia sipped her wine slowly, before setting it to the side and cuddling further back into Han's arms. Han's lips couldn't stop kissing against Leia's neck and shoulders, her skin was so warm from the water and felt heated against his lips. Leia sighed against the feel of his lips against her skin, and closed her eyes. Her fingers continued to draw circles along his arm, before slowly lifting his hand up and kissing against his wedding band. Han had a great interest in her ring, ever since they got engaged. Leia was slowly starting to see the appeal of it. Something so simple, telling and showing the world they were taken.
Slowly Leia pulled away from Han's hold and floated forward. Han watched her with a suspicious look. Spinning around, she turned to face him before swimming back over to his lap.
"What's on your mind Princess?" He asked, running his hand over her face.
"Just wanted to see you."
"It's quite a view out here, much better then me."
"I'd disagree."
"You're partial," Han grinned.
"My husband is very attractive" She said with a smirk, leaning in and kissing him. Han smiled against her lips, running his hands up and down her back. Their lips slowly moved together, the heat of the water rushed against their skin, both forgetting the outside world, simply too lost in their kiss. So far it had been an amazing honeymoon, and what days they had left would be just as amazing. Sitting here in Han's arms was all Leia cared about. She loved him so much, and she knew he loved her too. It was refreshing and warming to have finally started their official someday.
I hope you enjoyed their honeymoon time! Some honeymoon spot pix are posted on my tumblr!
