Bounty Wars (Boba Fett x Reader)

[13]

Your cold coffin hit the ground with a thud. "Check it." Vader demanded. Boba watched in horror as he saw your frozen figure. "She's alive." One of the small henchmen said. "Solo will survive this, he will be the final test to assure Skywalker will surely be frozen and alive." Vader informed him. The storm troopers released Boba and he ran over to you. 

"Now is not the time to release her. Solo and his friends will arrive in any moment. I shall have some men put her on your ship." Vader said and Boba stood and grabbed his Mandalorian helmet. He swiftly put it on, to try to hide the pain that took over his facial features. 

Boba followed Vader to the dining room and stood behind him. Moments later the door opened and in a split second he whipped out his blaster and shot Vader. Vader clearly saw this coming and blocked it within the same motion he took Han's blaster using the force.

"We would be honored if you joined us." Vader said, then Solo and his friends were grabbed and taken away.

Han Solo was taken to the chamber, frozen like you, and then given to Boba. Boba was leaving but unbeknownst to him Leia and her friends had been released, Luke had arrived but Boba never ran into him. Leia and her friends shot at the Slave 1 but their small blasters did no damage against the tough metal of the Slave 1.

Boba was quick to get to Jabba's palace. He took Han Solo's cold coffin to Jabba and was rewarded greatly, but Boba's mind never faltered from you. Boba hadn't the silghtest idea on how to safely open your cold case as he'd never had to deal with one before. He sat before you, "Y/N, I will find a way to release you from that prision I swear, my mesh'la." He whispered.

A month had passed. Boba had desprately searched for someone to release you. Today was that day. He would meet with a man who worked in the chamber on Bespin. "400 credits." Boba bargined and the man shook Boba's gloved hand. Boba led him to the Slave 1 and into a room. "Here she is." Boba said and he nodded. The man went to the control panel and twisted a few knobs, pressed a few buttons and it was melting. Boba grabbed the man and blasted him between the eyes. This man was a no one and no one would know he was gone. Boba tossed him off the ship and rushed to your side as the cold case had melted.

I fell away from the coldness and I fell into a pair of arms. I was shaking because I was so cold and I felt so sick. I opened my eyes but it was still dark. "My Mesh'la." I heard Boba say. "B-Boba?" I asked fearfully. "I am here, I am here." He whispers as he presses his head in the crook of my neck. "Boba I can't see." I say and he presses his hand to my cheek. "It's hybernation sickness. It will wear off I promise." He said.

I felt so hungry yet so sick at the same time. "Boba." I whispered as I hugged him. "How long?" I asked, "About a month. I am so sorry. I promise, I was searching through the entire galaxy so you would be safely revived. My mesh'la I've missed you." He says as his hug tightens around my torso. "Boba I was so scared." I say and he sighs, "I know. But you are here now, you are safe." Boba says as he cradles me. My stomach filled with butterflies and a smile plastered on my face. I reached up, I couldn't see but I gently pressed a hand onto Boba's cheek. He leaned against my hand and I felt a liquid fall onto my thumb, a tear.

"It is okay. I'm here now and I'm not leaving again."

I had regained my vision, while it was still slightly blurry I could see. I was eating as well, masses of food might I add. "Don't eat too much, you don't want to get a stomach ache." Boba chuckled and I rolled my eyes. "You try being frozen in carbonite for a month." I shoot back and he holds up his hands in defense. "Alright alright." He replies with a smug grin.

After I had finished eating we went on a walk, so I can regain some strength in my muscles. "Boba?" I said and he turned his head towards me. "What does Mesh'la mean? And what did you say in Mando'a to me that day I was frozen?" I ask, it was the first question on my mind when I had come out of that ice box and it had been bugging me ever since. Boba chuckled in response. "Mesh'la, wouldn't it lose it's nickname if I told you?" He grinned as he looked down at me. I sighed, "Alright, then what did you say on Bespin?" I asked and he stopped in his tracks. "Y/N.." He hesitated.

I only looked up at him in curiosity. "Y/N I told you.." He trailed off again. "Yes?" I asked as I watched him carefully. "I.. Well.. I told you I love you." He choked out and then he began to ramble. "I thought you were going to die and I didn't know what was going to happen. I'm so sorry if it's all too much and I understand if-" I instantly shut him up by grabbing his shirt and pulling him down so I could meet his lips.

Boba seemed shocked by this but he didn't refuse it. Instead he put both his hands on each side of my waist as he kissed me back lovingly. When the need for air broke us apart I looked him in the eyes. His glorious brown eyes looked back into mine. "I love you too Boba." I whispered and he grinned goofily back.

"Mesh'la, my beautiful." He whispered as he leaned down and kissed me tenderly again.

It was the beginning of our story and the end of our hidden feelings.

I love you, Boba Fett.

The End
