Star Wars One-Shots

Blind Date

"Would you like to order yet?"

"No not yet. I'm sure he'll be here any minute." Amethyst said. The waitress sighed and walked away for the third time this evening.

Amethyst sat at the table she was shown to an hour ago. Waiting, waiting..... Still waiting. He didn't show up.

"Miss... Do you want to order?" The waitress asked. She was obviously feeling for Amethyst.

"No a few more minutes please." She shook her head and forced a smiled.

"Ok." The waitress gave her a second glance and walked away checking on a few more tables. The glances were getting more and more painful towards her. She took a deep breath and looked at her water. Forcing herself to take a drink.

10 more minutes passed and Amethyst was about to get up when a man jogged in towards her. "I'm so sorry that I'm late babe. Traffic was crazy." he quietly whispered to her "Hi I'm Kylo. Just go with it, ok? Whoever didn't show up is an ass."

Amethyst nodded and smiled "it's ok honey. We'll you're here now, that's all that matters."

She eyed up his appearance. Tall, dorky smile. Deep voice, aesthetically pleasing to her. Much more attractive than her 'boyfriend'.

"So babe, are you ready to order?" He asked.

"Kylo, it's ok you can call me Amethyst. The nicknames don't have to be all the time." She said her name for him.

"Amethyst" he smiled saying her name. "It's too beautiful to be worn out."

"If you say so dear." Amethyst laughed genuinely.

The waitress came over and took their orders. Giving her 'date' a once over before telling the chefs what to make.

"I'm sorry he didn't show up."

"It's fine. He was a douche to begin with." She waved him off. "I was getting tired of it all."

"He doesn't deserve a pretty girl like you."

"Oh I'm not pretty."

"You're right... You're beautiful." He commented. She blushed lightly.

"Thank you."

"Of course."

"So tell me about yourself Kylo? What's your last name?"

"Ren, and I'm an artist." He looked her over. "What do you do?"

"My last name is Dove, and I'm an accountant."

"For who?"

"Skywalkers. They have a ranch that boards horses and such. I make sure everything is in order. What kind of artist are you?"

"Paintings mostly. You'd make a beautiful model."

"Oh. I don't know" she tried to her ever growing blush. "Let's see how this date works out."

"Will do Amethyst. I know the Skywalkers."

"You do?"

"Yeah. Luke is my uncle. Mara, my aunt."

"You must be Leia's son. She talks about you a lot. Not to mention all the art show invitations. I never put two and two together till now." She nodded to herself "I feel so stupid."

"Don't. Not everyone knows. Have you met my sister, Jaina?"

"She comes and goes. Not enough for me to get to know her or anything. I focus mostly on my work and go home."
