Love Across The Stars (Aayla Secura x Male Reader)

Kashyyyk (Part 1): Political Entanglements

(Y/N) POV:

The morning after your wonderful time with Aayla. You had awoken earlier than the rest of them. You had a lot of energy, so you got up, doing your morning routine. Before you left you felt you did not, at this point, need the armour, and wear your under clothes and mask.

Without the chest piece, it showed your mask had a material, the same as your shirt, that came out the bottom covering your neck, and is tucked under the top of your shirt. You walk out the room, as the door opens you adjust your mask, before closing it.

Even at this hour, there were only a handful of Jedi. You wander the mostly empty halls, to where you remember the cafeteria was. You saw a few jedi who were first to the fresh food You walked over to grab a tray, looking at the food...

...Being with death watch...had better food... you decided, after a while to take a portion of orange sludge, a stale piece cracker bread and a piece of fruit that was a week old if it was a day. You take a seat in the middle of the cafeteria, opening your mask to eat.

Not long later you see Aayla, who was walking with the star trio, Kenobi, Anakin and Ahsoka. They walked in all talking, Anakin being as arrogant as he usually is. Aayla brightened when she saw you, before quickly calming down to keep it a secret.

They walked past, you looked down to push the disgusting sludge around with your spoon, smiling as you exchanged looks. A little while later, they come over and sit all around you, Kenobi talking about something, you didn't know as it was obviously the middle of the conversation.

"Ah, good morning (Y/N)." Kenobi beams.

"Yeah Morning." Ahsoka follows, sitting to your left.

"Hey." Anakin grumbles siting opposite his padawan.

"Morning you." Aayla winks, sitting to your right.

"Morning all." You say, looking at the jedi digging into their food.

You take a bite of yours, tasting it before freezing...the taste was as bad as it looked. You look around, quickly swallowing, seeing they were still in conversation. Ahsoka looks over and see's you are uncomfortable.

"You alright (Y/N)?" she asks, getting everyone's attention.

"This is single handedly, the most awful, most disgusting thing I've ever tasted. How do you people eat this?"

"Well...its nutritional." Kenobi tries to rationalize.

"Never known a Mandalorian to be a fussy eater." Anakin taunts, smirking while taking a bite of his food.

"Not Mandalorian...besides I prefer the food your mommy makes for me..." you evilly smirk at him.

He scowls at you but stays quiet. He was about to retort, before being shot down by his master. Kenobi, in an attempt to change the subject opted to ask (Y/N) about his relation to the Dutchess.

"Why is that a concern of yours?" you ask, genuinely curious.

"I'm just wondering...She speaks highly of you..."

"Really?" you raise an eyebrow in disbelief.

"Well, at a high enough volume." He says before the conversation died again.

"Hey (Y/N) ...How's the scar?" Ahsoka asks.

"Its fine." you say, side eyeing Aayla and she does the same to you, you smile, and she giggles, seeing you both had the same idea, this led to some confused looks from the other Jedi at the table.

In the distance, you see Luminara and Barriss walking into the cafeteria. Luminara had seen you, locking her gaze with yours, she briskly walks over to the table and stands at the end near you and Aayla, barriss standing behind her.
