The New Resistance

Feelings

The sunset in the planet was one of the most beautiful ones he had ever seen in his life, the sky was painted in bright red, orange and a touch of pink. He watched carefully as the sun lowered to hide under the horizon.
BB-8 rolled against his knee.

Poe looked at him and sighed "I guess she's not coming" the droid began telling him she had probably lost track of time "maybe"

He walked back to the base a bit upset, when Rey had told him they could borrow the Falcon for a ride he had been thrilled, it had always been his dream to pilot the ship Han Solo had owned, besides he really enjoyed spending time with her... But after an hour of delay he was sure she wasn't coming.

Poe walked to the control room, a few of the programmers were trying to descifre the data to access the records of the base.
Connix waved at him, he smiled and approached the lieutenant, his droid however went his own way.

"Leia was looking for you" she told him

"Oh...is everything okay?"

The girl nodded "Yes, she needed help with the count of provisions but I took care of it"

"Thank you, I was just getting some fresh air" he explained

His friend arched her eyebrows "If you say so"

"What do you mean?" He asked crossing his arms

"Well it's just that you seem a bit... distracted"

He snorted "Me? What are you talking about?"

The girl took a deep breath and smirked "Your secret is safe with me"

Poe frowned making her roll her eyes, she lifted her hand and pointed at something behind him, the pilot turned to see Rey entering the base with Finn behind her. Poe's face suddenly flushed and he returned his face to Connix

"I don't know what you are talking about" he told her "get that smirk off your face"

The girl laughed "It's okay Poe, I think the General would be pleased to see the mighty Commander finally in love"

"Shut up" was all he managed to say "Don't you have work to do?"

Connix rised her hands in defeat "Al right!" And taking a step closer she whispered "Don't worry I won't tell anyone"

He gave her a stern look making her walk back to the console.
Poe sighed, she had always loved to imagine things and to tease him constantly.

Finn and Rey stood in the middle of the hallway, he had clearly told her something funny because she had started to laugh...It was the first time Poe saw her so happy, he felt a pinch in his stomach...he knew Finn cared a lot about her and that she probably felt the same way.

Behind him Connix had coughed really loud, he turned and the girl mouthed
"You are staring"

Now he was actually blushing, with a quick pace he began making his way to the quarters.

"Poe!" He heard Rey calling him

His legs stopped immediately, slowly he turned to her "Oh hello" trying to sound normal

She walked to him "I'm so sorry, Finn and I were talking and...I should have told you-"

"It's okay" he assured her with a smile, somehow just seeing how worried she was made him forget he had been upset in the first place.

Finn joined them, he patted him on the shoulder "How are you doing Poe?"

Who was he kidding? He couldn't be angry at neither of them, why would he be in the first place? It was Connix the one that was confusing him.
"Good, we'll talk later buddy, I have to find the General"
