Note: I as thinking of Luke and Mara's stay on Garqi and came up with this little gem.
.
"What's wrong, Skywalker? Are we getting tired" Mara grinned as she said this, climbing higher up the mountain.
"No, I'm just enjoying the scenery."
"Oh, is that what's it's called when you stop to take frequent water breaks." She pulled herself up a few feet more. "I thought you kept yourself in peak condition."
"I am." He grunted, grabbing hold of a ledge. "It's just when I planned this, I envisioned something less…strenuous. You know something that would actually involve getting to know eachother, not climbing Force-forsaken mountain. Didn't you have enough of that on Niueran?"
She smirked upon hearing this and pulled herself the rest of the way up, until she was kneeling at the summit.
"Funny, I thought this is what we did best." She snarked, watching him come closer.
"Sometimes best…" Another grunt. "Isn't always the best."
"Oh, I beg to differ."
Luke craned his head up, Mara was grinning widely.
"You're enjoying this." He said trying not to sound accusatory.
"Oh, no. I'm just 'enjoying the scenery'."
"Hah," Grunt. "Hah. Hah."
She upright with her hands on her knees. "Oh, c'mon spoilsport. You're almost there." She extended a hand, a warm smile gracing her face. "Here, take my hand..."
Luke looked up into her dazzling green eyes and fell in love all over again. How had he missed this? How had he been so blind all these years?
He took on her hand and climbed up the rest of the way.
When he had gotten to his feet, he turned around and looked off into the sunset.
"It's certainly beautiful isn't it?" He murmured, turning to smile at her. "I knew this would be a perfect place for us."
Mara stepped up next to him and looked at the sun.
"It's strange." She said, gently taking hold of his hand. "You think you've seen one sunset, you've seen them all." She rested her cheek against his shoulder. "But this...this is somehow different."
Luke looked down upon with a sense of overwhelming love.
"I know what you mean."
