Mara was waiting for Leia to walk out and tell her she was going to have to wear a pink dress, but to her surprise it was blue. It when a little past the knee and short sleeve and the skirt was lose, and she knew it was a dress she�d like. Mara hair was now being pulled back and off her neck, while she wore a simple silver necklace. �Ok it�s a tradition among Han�s people to do this so�I need something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue,� Leia said. �Well the dress is new and this necklace is old,� Liia said. �Who�s necklace is this,� Leia said. �It was Padme Skywalker�s�she also wore it on her wedding day,� Liia said. �Here borrow my bracelet�and wait I got on idea,� Mara said. �So we have something Old, new and borrowed now I need something blue,� Leia said. �I got it turn around Leia,� Mara said and Leia could feel her putting something in her hair and she then faced the mirror. �It lovely,� Liia said seeing the blue flowers in her hair. �Thank you Mara I love it,� Leia said. �Are you all present,� Luke said. �Yes,� Mara said and Luke entered. �You all look amazing,� Luke said. �Thank you Luke,� Leia said. �I�m suppose to tell you we start in a few minutes,� Luke said then left. �Come on you are to become Leia Solo�so will Anakin name change too,� Mara said. �Yes it�s now Anakin Solo,� Leia said. The wedding began and Leia looked at Han who looked at her, everyone she had ever loved was there. People from her old life and her new life was there. They all looked at her with a great smile on her face, Luke walked with Mara down the aisle and Liia walked with her husband. Woman that she hadn�t seen in years also were there and gave her smile, Leia knew that they approved of Han. The wedding began and Han had never looked happier in his life for the first time he was getting a family. �Congratulations,� Mara said. �Thank you,� Han said. �You wouldn�t mind if I dance with the bride,� Luke said. �Of course not,� Han said. Luke and Leia walked out in the middle of the dance floor and all eyes were on them. Leia gave him a wide smile that told him she was happy and that she knew everything was going to be ok. A few women had noticed Luke from the moment he walked in, but they also noticed Mara too. The song was a short one and had an Alderaan beat to it, soft and peaceful. Luke now knew why people don�t play songs from Alderaan at parties and friends get together. The song ended and Luke took Leia hand and walked her over to Han and gave her to him, he took her hand and led her out the dance floor. �How�d Luke know about that custom,� Leia asked. �Bail told him,� Han said. �This is a prefect day,� Leia said. �It is,� Han said pulling her close as that song ended and faster one started. Across the room stood a woman watching them very closely and smiling at each of there movements. She also watched Luke and Mara as they went out to the dance floor and gave a small smile. It had been so long since she seen them, but she knew who they were. She only hoped that they didn�t hate her for what she had done. �She looks beautiful,� the woman said. �Yes she does,� Liia said. �She looks happy,� the woman said. �Leia is at her happiest. With Han and Anakin,� Liia said. �Anakin,� the woman questioned. �Her son,� Liia said. �As a fellow Alderaan I give my congratulations,� the woman said. �Thank you,� Liia said. The day was going and Leia and Han still dance and Anakin was still wide-awake and most of the people had gone. Mara picked up Anakin and started her way towards the dance floor. Luke watched as Mara and Anakin danced and he saw his nephew smile and giggle a few times. Leia and Han also watched with a great smile on their faces, Chewie was next Luke eating and Luke was just watching. He noticed the woman with brown and gray hair with honey color eyes and blue dress on that seem to be watching everything going on but doing nothing. Luke got up and went towards and gave her a soft smile. �Lovely wedding,� Luke said. �It is�you�re the brother of the bride correct,� the woman said. �Yes�I�m Luke Skywalker,� Luke said. �Well Congratulation to your family,� the woman said. �Thank you,� Luke said. Luke got himself a drink and Mara a drink and went back to his seat while Mara and Anakin came back to sit down. He looked at the woman for a few more moments and put his attention back on Mara and Anakin. Mara gave him a kind smile and he smiled back at her, Han and Leia joined them at the table. It wasn�t long before all the guest and Alderaan people were gone and Leia, Han, Luke, Mara, Liia, Liia husband, and Anakin were the only ones left. �Parker and I are going home�do you want us to take Anakin as well,� Liia said. �It ok with me,� Han said. �Me too,� Leia said. �Ok,� Liia said picking up a sleeping Anakin and leaving. �Did any of you see that woman with brown hair,� Luke said. �She had gray hair mixed in and she wore a blue dress,� Leia said. �Yes,� Luke said. �I did�I was wondering who she was,� Leia said. �I don�t know�but it like I did,� Luke said. Leia and Han left the next day and would be gone for three days on their honeymoon and Anakin would be staying with Luke and Mara. Han and Leia spent most of the time with other and in bed neither one wanted to do anything. Han took her Corellia and they stayed there for a few days and then they started there way back. �Han did you ever think we�d end up together,� Leia asked. I�d always hope we would,� Han said. He got up and moved closer to her, his arms went around her waist and hers around his neck to pull him closer. The kiss started out gentle, but quickly turned to something more feverish and hungry. Clothes went back to the ground and they started to enjoy the short time they had alone once again. Passion, desire, and need was that they felt all that needed to fulfill and it was the only thing on thee mind at that moment. �Luke Chewie said Han and Leia will be home in two days,� Mara said. �I know he just told me,� Luke said. �Mara,� Anakin said as he pulled on his pants. �I�m here,� Mara said picking him up. �He sure likes you,� Luke said. �What can I say I have mother�s touch,� Mara said as she shifted him around in her arms. �Mara marry me,� Luke said �What,� Mara said. �Not next week but marry me,� Luke said. �You want to get married,� Mara said. �Yes and I want it to be with you,� Luke said. �Skywalker,� Mara said. �Jade,� Luke said. �I love you�yes I will,� Mara said. �I love you,� Luke said leaning forward to kiss her. Leia and Han landed his ship and were met by Chewie who was very happy to see them. They started their way towards their apartment when Leia saw the woman again this time she was shopping. Leia looked at her and the woman looked up and Leia knew she had seen that face before. Han took her hand and they stared to walk faster to their apartment that they had bought instead of staying at the palace. �We�re home,� Leia said before walking. �Leia they�re not here,� Han said looking around. �Where could they be,� Leia said and just them they walk in. �Mama Dada,� Anakin said. �Anakin,� Leia said taking him. �Mara,� Anakin pointing at her. �He like her,� Luke said. �Where is Chewy,� Luke asked. �The Falcon,� Leia said. �Where have you three been,� Han said. �Shopping for rings�Mara and I are getting married,� Luke said. �When,� Leia said. �Not anytime soon�but maybe in a 2 or 3 months,� Mara said showing Leia her engagement ring. �It�s lovely,� Leia said. �And it was lovely price,� Luke whispered to Han. �Love cost a lot kid,� Han said. �We heard that,� Leia and Mara said. The two women sat down and started to talk about everything that had been happening lately. Leia told her about where they went and the things they did. Mara told her about when he proposed and how he did Leia and Mara both agreed it was romantic but his heart was true so that made up for it. Then there was a knock at the door and Luke got it and eyes widen in shock when he saw who it was. �May I come in,� the woman said. �Yes,� Luke said. �Hell-O Leia,� the woman said. �Do we know you,� Leia said. �You should�I�m your mother Padme Skywalker,� Padme said.
