A/N: Star Wars, it's characters and locations are owned by Lucas and Disney. Amara, Serena, the kids (excluding the names Shara, Han, and Obi) Malik and Delena are names I came up with.

Waking up, I panicked for a second, thinking once again I was still locked in that tiny holding cell, wondering if death would finally come for me. But something told me I was back home on D'Qar and far from harm. The room I was in was semi- lit by a small lamp and a blanket was pulled up to my shoulders, a smaller figure cuddled up next to my side.. It took a while for my eyes to adjust, but when I saw who it was, I couldn't help but let a sob of relief out, causing the person who was reading to look up

"It's good to see you awake, sister." She said, putting her book down beside the lamp.

" I can say the same for you, Serena. So how long was I out for?" She could tell my throat was dry, because she handed me a glass of ice water and then proceeded to answer me.

" About three months, at the most. You're lucky to be alive;they lost you twice on the table."

"The force surely must have been with me."I chuckled a little, only to stop when my stomach started to hurt.

"About that; you had some minimal internal bleeding."

"Well, at least I'm not dead."I smiled. "So what exactly happened?" I asked, looking at her.

"We had a rescue squad consisting of myself, your friends Rey, Finn and Poe. Long story short, we went in got you out. well those three did. I went to take care of their supreme leader, two of the knights and I sorta brought Ben back. And then I blew up their base."

"Woah, Poe came to my rescue?" This caused me to sit up against my pillows, jolting the person next to me to wake up. "Mommy?"

"Yeah, sweetie, it's me." I replied. With the help of Serena, we managed to get Shara in a comfortable position on my lap. Once she was okay, Serena sat back down.

"Yeah, he was really pissed." She replied.

"Like for real?He seriously came?"

"Yeah, I did." Speak of the handsome devil. I turned to see him standing in the doorway.

"Well, I'll leave you two alone; I've got a little monkey that Grandma Leia would like to see." Standing up, she came over and picked Shara up, who laughed at her aunt' antics and then before she left, stopped beside him. "Hurt my sister or my niece again and you won't be able to procreate; again." And then she and Shara were gone.

"Look Poe, I just wanted to say thanks, for you, know, coming for me. I appreciate it, given the thing that happened that night."

" Amara, I was an asshole that night and I won't use being drunk as an excuse for my behavior. And you, or Shara don't have to forgive me, but when I heard and saw what happened to you, I decided that I couldn't lose another person in my life." He had pulled the chair Serena was occupying moments ago and sat in it, grabbing my hand and holding it. "When we got to you, I thought you were already gone;that the universe decided to punish me for my actions towards you."

"It takes more than that to get rid of me; you should know that." I replied, squeezing his hand and gave him a reassuring smile. He did something that surprised me; he brought our joined hands up to his lips and kissed the back of my hand.

The next day I was released from the med bay and as soon as I was, Rey, Serena, and Shara had dragged me off to my old room, where there were four dresses, make-up covering the desk, and a curling iron ready to be plugged in.

We all had simple dresses; Rey's was a maroon color, Serena's was an emerald color, mine was a navy blue, and Shara's was orange; she always gushed at the color due to a certain droid. Our hair was done with simple curls and the two other older women and I had light makeup on. "So why exactly did we get dressed up for?" I asked as we made our way up to the hangar; Shara skipping ahead of us, turning back to look at us every so-often, urging us to go faster.

"You know, she's just like you when you were her age. I remember when mom would tell me when you were at the shop."

"Like they say, like mother, like daughter." Going up behind my daughter, I picked her up, causing her to squeal.

"You'll see." Serena said as we got closer. Music could be heard, along with laughter and many different conversations. Finn was the first to greet us at the door.

"Ladies, don't you look nice." He said, wrapping an arm around Rey's waist and planting a kiss on her temple. I gave him a small smile and scanned the decorated hangar for a certain Commander.

"He's actually outside by his X-wing." Finn said, nodding in the direction behind me. "Thanks; you guys go and enjoy the party." I replied. "I'll take Shara for you for a bit." My sister said, knowing that I would go. Handing my daughter off to her aunt, I turned and headed to where Poe was.

"You clean up nice Dameron." I called out when I was near him. Looking up from his boots, he smiled once he saw that it was me.

"You look nice too." He said once I was standing in front of him.

"Ah, thank you." I replied, looking at my shoes. "

"There's no reason why you should be nervous,you've known me all your life." Putting a hand under my chin, he lifted it up so I was now looking in those eyes that made every woman on the base go weak in the knees.

"I'm sorry;I-I need to go." Stepping back, his arm fell back to his side and I turned, wondering why I had to go, only for a had to grab my wrist and pull me back into his chest.

"Don't go." He whispered into my ear, turning me around and crashed his lips onto mine. Letting go of my wrist, he put both hands on my waist and pulled me even closer to where I could feel the bulge in his pants growing. My hands automatically moved to his hair, grabbing as much as I could. Once we broke away for air, he placed his forehead on mine and kept his hands where they were.

"I've always dreamt of this since forever." I whispered, my hands now on his shoulders.

"We should've done this years ago, sweetheart." His voice was husky.

"We actually did." I pointed out with a small laugh.

"Hey, love birds," turning our heads, we saw Serena and Shara, the latter making a disgusted face , "The Generals about to make a speech."

"Yeah, we'll be there." Poe called back. Once the two left, he looked down at me.

"We should probably go." I said, removing my hands from his shoulders.

He said nothing as he removed his hands from my waist, only to then grab one of my hands and we headed back to the hangar.
