Star Wars: Cross Paths 3

Chapter 52 - Husband and Wife

A/N: I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year.

Luke was looking at his baby son, pulling the covers on top of him, while the baby was laying on his right side, sucking his pacifier, taking is afternoon nap.

It has being 2 days after Ben's 6th birthday.

For the past 48 hours, everything was being prepare for the at least 2 to 3 days lock down and now everyone was in their homes.

The next day Rex had come to the Temple and with the other clones: Cody, Gregor and Echo, and they all met Luke who was there with his daughter Alli, and Cody told him how much he respected Obi Wan since he worked with him during the Clone Wars and he also knew his father Anakin, and of course he would do anything to protected his family, especially being Obi Wan the Godfather of Luke's older son Ben.

They informed that after the storm passed they would contact with former clones and they were sure they would help too.

After that day, and after talk to the others and be sure everything was okay in the Jedi Temple, and of course bring Grogu to spend the storm days with them, they had being at home.

And even if the news only informed that they would start feeling the storm tomorrow during the afternoon and it would during the night that it would hit full force, right now they were already starting to get some.

The day came very cloudy and they could hear the win, that once in a while pick the strength and hearing blowing up outside.

Right now, the apartment was very quite, because the next days Ines woke up with a sore throat and as the day passed by, she started to cough and her body started to hurt and Luke was pretty sure she was starting to have a little fever, which the doctor confirmed when he called him.

Since they didn't want the kids to catch the small flu, at the moment, the other kids alongside with Grogu were at Leia and Han home, since his twin sister was kind enough to take the kids and let Ines rest, only leaving the baby with his parents. Even R2 went with them.

Entering in this bedroom, he watched Ines under the covers, sleeping. Getting under the covers slowly, he pressed his lips on her forehead and sighed in relief knowing that she had no fever at the moment.

Smiling, he stroke her hair, looking at her sleeping form, and thinking how happy he was all these years since he had her in his life, and suddenly he remembered the next day after they slept together for the first time, after a year of relationship.

Flashback:

4 ABY (7 weeks before Han's rescue mission from Jabba's Palace)

Luke was walking down the hallway for the alliance cruiser, bowing his head every time someone said hello to him.

That morning he decided to check his X-Wing before he attended a short meeting where Leia, Mon Mothma and General Madine were talking. There was something that it didn't feel right for him, but he knew that it doesn't matter what he said nothing would change. After a few minutes he decided to leave, and nodding to Leia, he left the room and decided to see where his girlfriend was.

The last time he saw her, it was in now their bedroom, when he returned with all of her stuff, after the night they slept together for the first, and decided to share his bedroom from now on.

The memory of their night, made him smile. It was something he was eager to have since the moment they started dating, but he also respected her time to give that big step, and now he was happy they waited cause that made it even more special, and now he knew he would never let her go, no matter what.
