You two really were quite the sight to Han and Chewbacca when they entered the next morning.
Han observed the two of you, quietly. Your head had been bandaged, as well as the side of Luke's neck. Your clothes were ragged, torn, and bloodstained. But the best thing, Han noted, was that the two of you held each other as you lay in a deep slumber.
"Chewie...think we missed something?" Han whispered, sarcastically. Chewie growled lightly in agreement.

"Well, it took you long enough," Han commented, walking beside Chewie back to the Millennium Falcon, which was parked in the sand just outside of the cave. You and Luke followed, hand in hand.
"Don't start, Han," Luke laughed.
"It's your turn now, isn't it?" you added, the reference to Leia causing Luke to laugh even more.
Han looked back and rolled his eyes. "Yeah, yeah, yeah..." he said, avoiding the subject. "Gotta get a move on, though. We picked up those droids you were supposed to get. We're supposed to be back at the base already. Plus, word is that there's a blind Rancor out on the loose, and I'm not in the mood for that."
You and Luke looked at each other with wide eyes, then smiled knowingly.
Han looked at the two of you suspiciously while he opened the bay door to the Falcon. "You guys've got too many secrets." He disappeared into the ship, followed by Chewbacca, who was growling amusedly.
You stopped at the entrance ramp of the ship, looking back at the cave. You felt a sense of completeness; you were leaving the past behind, all in that cave.
Luke stopped as well, confused, then understood when he followed your gaze. He draped his arm over your shoulder. You looked up at him with soft eyes.
"We're gonna be alright, aren't we."
He looked down at you, and smiled lovingly at the certain look in your eyes. He leaned forward and kissed your forehead.
"We're gonna be just fine."
And as you took off into the new day, listening to Leia scolding Han and Chewie through the intercom, Luke holding you close to him, you knew that to be true.
