The Rising

Untitled Part 129

Rex watched as the newest members of the crew filed out of the ship and into the hanger where it seemed all the medics on board were in assembly as they took each member of the crew into the med bay. 

Rex would feel the familiar tug in his chest from his children every once and a while, he smiled understanding that the moment his children realized their father was back on board he would probably be tackled to the ground. 

"and what do you call this late hour?" a familiar voice asked behind him, the voice made him smile even bigger before he turned to his very annoyed wife. 

Her hands were on her hips as her head tilted playfully at him, Rex chuckled slightly before he half-ran over and pulled her into a tight hug. 

Ahsoka laughed at him before hugging him back just as tightly and resting her head on his shoulders. 

"All good here General?" Rex asked nodding in the direction of the retreating patients, with Wreaker groaning about doctor visits as they went. 

Ahsoka nodded, her head not moving from his shoulder as she did.

Rex smiled brightly before laying a hand on her stomach, he could feel soft kicking before he moved his hand to her side. he had only pulled Ahsoka into a kiss when he heard loud yelling coming from the passageway Ahska had come from. 

"YOU ARE SUCH A JERK"

"YOUR SUCH A LITTLE GIRL"

"LEAST I CAN DO MORE THAN SHOOTING DOTS"

"HA....YOU THINK ITS EASY TO SHOOT THOSE THINGS, YOU BARELY CAN HIT ANYTHING WITH YOUR STICK!"

Rex groaned into his wife's neck as she curled closer to him, trying to both shield her head and stomach. 

"They have been like this for days.......I'm half tempted to put them on a deserted planet just so I can get some peace and quiet" Ahsoka whispered as Rex gently kissed the side of her head and the two continued their arguing. 

"LEAST I ACTUALLY AM USEFUL ON THE BATTLEFIELD, WHEREAS YOU, YOUR JEDINESS IS TOTALLY LOST" 

Rex winced at Wolfe's comment before there was a very loud crash and he came rolling into the hanger covered in....trash?

Wolfe pulled himself to his feet and was about to go storming after the Jedi that had pissed him off so well when Plo grabbed his shoulder and stilled him. 

"Do I want to know what is going on?" Plo asked as Wolfe stood there, visibly shaking as he tried and failed to keep a calm facade. 

"Nothing worth mentioning General"

Rex could have sworn he heard Ahsoka scoff at that before Plo let the Clone go, stomping towards the showers. 

"So........how badly is the state of my troops?" Plo asked Ahsoka once he was sure that Wolfe was totally out of earshot. 

Ahsoka turned slightly, though staying in Rex's arms, and addressed her uncle "Oh nothing much, a clone from the 501st has been trying to date your padawan, and Wolfe and all of his men have been trying to find out who......"

Plo chuckled. 

Rex shook his head before he dipped his head into her neck. Trying his very best not to think about the times that other clones had hit on his wife, and was very glad that she was in his arms right now. 

"Any chance you know who the poor unfortunate recruit is?" Plo asked still laughing. 

Ahsoka shook her head before yawning. 

Rex smiled before he leaned down and picked Ahsoka up causing her to yelp slightly before looking to her uncle for help. 

Plo laughed hard at this and shook his head "Go get some sleep little one, I can watch things here till you wake up".
