�You really love her,� Liia said.
�Yes,� Han said.
�I�m sorry�for all the pain we caused her and you,� Liia said.
�I know�you love her and you all were afraid to lose her,� Han said.
�Ask her,� Liia said.
Han looked at her and she gave him a small smile and walked into the room with Leia. Liia had never been away from home this long and when they asked her stay for dinner she had to say yes. They were now in Falcon and Liia had to be going before her parents got to worried about her and sent the guards out to get her.
�Tomorrow then,� Leia said.
�Yes�be there at noon,� Liia said.
�Noon,� Leia said.
�You too Han�and bring your brother,� Liia said.
�We will,� Han said.
Mara and Luke decided to rent a room instead of staying the ship they had been in for the last 2 days of their trip. Mara was in the bathroom combing her hair when she walked out to find Luke stretching. She smiled and watched him for a few more moments, he seem to notice and looked up at her.
�Where Artoo,� Mara asked.
�He and Threepio are in the Falcon,� Luke said.
�Han must be loving that,� Mara said.
�Mara we need to talk,� Luke asked.
�I know,� Mara said moving towards him.
She moved slowly as he began to stand up and he gave her another slight smile. He just looked at her there was something there he could feel it. He closed his eyes and could feel a sensation the he could never describe, Mara was softly speaking to him, but in his mind. He could feel that she near and that she wanted him, he could feel her emotions and he opened his eyes not knowing what happen but knew it was the force at work.
�Luke what is it,� Mara said.
�I could sense your feeling,� Luke said.
�What,� Mara said.
�I closed my eyes and could feel you but it was different,� Luke said.
�I wish I could understand what you are saying,� Mara said.
�You can�close your eyes,� Luke said.
She closed her eyes and he moved her hand to his face and put his hand on her face then closed her eyes as well. He then just thought about her and he felt the sensation beginning again, but this time it was stronger then before. He felt himself being pulled into it, but then he realized he was being pulled into Mara mind as she was being pulled into his. Memories, thoughts, and feeling were being shared as if they were one body had one soul, and she understood what he meant now. Slowly they could feel their energy being pulled away so they slowly stepped away from one another hoping not to hurt the other.
�Luke,� Mara said as she opened her eyes.
�Are you OK,� Luke said.
�Yes,� Mara said.
In an instance they had covered the distance that was between them and his lips were on hers. Her arms went around his neck and his went around her waist and she pulled him closer and close wanting to feel skin on skin. The shirt he was wearing was the first thing that she took off and through across the room, next was her shirt, and one by one their clothing items were lost for lustful feeling they needed to satisfy. Skin on skin was they wanted, lips to lips, man to woman was all they knew.
�Luke maybe you can explain why we just did that,� Mara asked.
�Maybe a side effect of that thing we did I really don�t know,� Luke said as Mara snuggled up against him.
�Hmmm�night Luke,� Mara said.
�Night Mara,� Luke said.
*Where did I put my shirt, Mara said*
�Here,� Luke said handing it to her.
�What,� Mara said.
�You asked for you shirt,� Luke said.
�No I didn�t,� Mara said.
�Yes you did,� Luke said.
�I�d remember if I said it�I thought it but I didn�t say it,� Mara said then it hit him what happen.
*Mara can you hear me,� Luke sent*
�Luke,� Mara said.
�The force�we must have bonded last night,� Luke said.
Leia could see that her adoptive father wasn�t happy and that her mother was just as unhappy. She knew that her mother knew some of this but not all of it. Luke and Mara sat at her side along with her sister and Han who help her hand. Her mother was holding Anakin and she seemed to smiling just for him. Bail was looking at Leia then to Luke and knew what he had told them was hard.
�So my father is a dark jedi,� Luke said.
�Yes,� Bail said.
�Fine�then I need to find Ben and have him train me. If my father knows I know he�ll come after me,� Luke said.
�I�m coming with you,� Leia said.
�Leia you have a son and a wedding to plan,� Luke said smiling
�I know,� Leia said and Luke kissed her forehead and walked out of the room.
�I�ll go with him,� Mara said.
�We can�t have the wedding until you two return�and take Artoo,� Leia said.
�I will�I swear he�ll came back alive and in piece,� Mara said then left.
�Sweetheart the kid is smart and Mara take care him,� Han said.
�Han are you sure you want to marry,� Leia said.
�Yes,� Han said.
�Then lets begin we have a lot of planning to do,� Gabrielle said.
�Right,� Leia said as Bail took Anakin and the two woman left.
�Han I know it�s not all your fault Leia got pregnant�but if you hurt her you�ll never see day light again,� Bail said.
�I won�t�I love Leia and Anakin,� Han said.
Good because now you get to sit through wedding arrangements,� Bail said.
Can�t be that bad,� Han said.
�Han it�s worse then any enemy you could imagine,� Bail said.
Luke went back to his and Mara room and began to pack he didn�t even notice he had left Artoo yet. Mara had decided to give Luke a few minutes then send in Artoo. She had notice he was about to leave and sent him in and heard Luke mumble and apology. Mara then walked in and Luke knew what she was here for.
�Mara I have to go,� Luke said.
�OK but I�m going with you,� Mara said.
�Mara you can�t,� Luke said.
�Listen Skywalker even you take me and Artoo or we follow you,� Mara said.
�Mara,� Luke said.
�It�s your choice,� Mara said.
�Fine get your stuff,� Luke said.
They had been in the ship for 2 days and were close to Tatooine where Luke would stop by see his aunt and uncle and then go see Ben. Mara was in the back fixing something while Luke was just sitting and thinking about the way his life had changed. One night he went to bed wishing to get off the planet he was on and the next day he was on a mission to find his sister. On the way he found a woman who he�d think he come to love, his sister, nephew, future brother-in-law and that his father was a dark jedi.
�Luke we�re entering the landing cycle,� Mara said.
�OK,� Luke said as he got seated.
Luke watched Mara as she entered landing cycle and landed The Jade�s Fire. They then got up and started to get ready to leave and find Ben. Artoo was just behind them when Luke saw a few familiar faces but tried not make him self-known. Mara noticed this but didn�t say anything, since she sort of understood.
�Luke what wrong,� Mara said.
�I don�t want to run into any of my old friends,� Luke said.
�Why ashamed to be seen with me,� Mara said jokingly.
�No,� Luke said looking at her.
�I was joking Farmboy. I understand you want to find Ben, but remember where you go I go,� Mara said.
�I don�t mind,� Luke said.
�Luke,� a girl said.
�Hi Morgan,� Luke said.
�Who your friend,� a boy said.
�Mara Jade�these area two of my friends Morgan and Derek,� Luke said.
�Nice to met you,� Mara said.
�Come on everyone will be happy you�re back,� Derek said.
�I�m here to see Ben actually,� Luke said.
�He left�for a planet in the what was that system called,� Morgan said.
�Dagobah I believe he said,� Derek said.
�Thanks come on Mara,� Luke said and took her hand.
Luke and Mara walked hand in hand for a few minutes until they came to rental shop that they needed. They walked in and a man just looked at Luke and smiled. Luke looked around looking for a speeder he could rent and found the one that he needed.
�Can I rent this,� Luke said.
�Of course,� he said.
They paid the man the money asked for the short time they needed to the speeder and started to put Artoo in it. Mara was the next to get in and Luke got in and started their ride to his aunt and uncles. The trip was not as short as Mara could help and the sand and heat didn�t help any, but they finally got there.
�So this is where you grew up,� Mara said.
�Yes�I�ll asked my Uncle Owen if we can stay here tonight and then find this Dagobah system tomorrow,� Luke said.
�Ok,� Mara said.
�Aunt Beru,� Luke said.
�Luke,� Beru said cheerfully.
�Luke,� Owen said.
�I know about my father�I found Leia and her adoptive father told me,� Luke said.
�I�m sorry we didn�t,� Beru said.
�You want to became a Jedi,� Owen said.
�I know my father will come after me one day and I have to be ready for it,� Luke said.
�Can you stay a day or two,� Owen asked.
�I can stay two days,� Luke said.
�Who�s the girl,� Beru asked as Luke smiled and waved her over.
�Uncle Owen Aunt Beru this is Mara Jade,� Luke said.
�Nice to met you I�ve heard a lot about you both,� Mara said.
�Come on in my dear,� Mara said.
Luke went outside with his Uncle Owen and started to help anyway her could. Mara helped Beru in the kitchen all four people knowing that in a few days both young people would be gone. White Back on Leia�s home planet of Alderaan her mother and her were deciding wedding things and Han could see what Bail meant.
�Han blue or purple,� Liia asked.
�Why not white,� Han asked.
�White I like that,� Leia said.
�Then white table cloths it is�Leia your dress,� Liia said.
�I�m going to wear Ali�s,� Leia said.
�Now the date,� Bail said.
�When Luke get back,� Leia said.
�Are you sure you want to wait it could take him weeks or months,� Bail said.
�He�s my brother I�m waiting,� Leia said.
�Well my dear it�s late and I�ll see you all in the morning,� Bail said and Liia followed.
Han got up and started to away the paper Bail had brought of things to discuss that they had or hadn�t he couldn�t remember everything. Anakin was asleep on the floor so Han picked him up and took him to his room inside their room at the palace. Leia went to their bedroom and started to get ready for bed while Han tucked in Anakin. She still was amazed at how her life was turning out.
�Han do you want to wait,� Leia said biting her bottom lip.
�Yes Luke and Mara deserve to be present,� Han said.
�Ok I just want to make sure waiting is ok with you too,� Leia said standing up.
�I love you and if I have to wait 100 years I will,� Han said going to meet her.
Her brought in his arms and hugged her close and just closed his eyes and let his mind wonder. She brought up her head and let her lips touched his and leaned forward to deepen the kiss. Walking backwards towards the bed they found them selves lost in one another once again.
�Luke will be back soon I know he will,� Leia whispered to her sleeping fianc�.
�I know,� Han mumbled as she settled in his arms and fell asleep.
