A/N: This is unedited and I literally cannot bring myself to try and proof read it. I wanted to write, so here you go I guess haha. I hope you enjoy :)

You walk into your quarters with a sigh after a long day of repairing half of the remaining fleet of X-Wings. You slip your boots off of your feet and take a seat on your bed with a sigh. Your holopad lights up across the room and your friend's face pops up on it. 

"Hey Y/N! I was wondering if you wanted to come get a drink or two with me and some of my pilot friends. Let me know you want to or not!" Her face disappears.

You send back a reply saying that you'll join them and that you'll meet them at the cantina. You change into a pair of ripped jeans and a plain v neck black t shirt. You set off on your way to the cantina, and make it a few minutes earlier than you told your friend you'd be there. 

You scan the room looking for your friend when your eyes meet brown ones that have seemingly been staring at you. You take in the face of your admirer and blush when you realize who it is. Your friend has told stories about this pilot that she's worked with. He's a handsome man who isn't afraid to tell you how sexy you look. Sure, with a reputation like his, you would think that his stare would mean close to nothing to your heart, but his soft, admiring gaze hits you like a truck. 

You unintentionally stare back and he gives you a small smirk. You blink, shaking your head a little and your mouth almost drops open when he gives a small wave, beckoning you to his small table. You move towards the table slowly, fiddling with your fingers nervously. 

"So, you must be Y/N." He says, quickly looking you up and down. 

You feel the heat rush to your face and you nod. 

"That's right. And you are?" You reply, looking into his still-adoring eyes. 

"Poe. Poe Dameron." He replies, smoothly. 

You nod, taking in the new information.

"Where's Y/F/N?" You ask, looking around again. 

"She should be here any minute." He replies, and just like that, Y/F/N walks through the door to the cantina. 

"Hey guys!" She greets you and Poe with a bright smile. 

You smile back, and Poe does the same. 

"Is Jess still coming too?" Poe asks. 

Your friend shakes her head sadly. 

"No, something came up and she can't make it." 

Poe nods understandingly. 

The night goes by fairly fast as do the drinks. You only have two whereas Poe and Y/F/N enjoy a lot more than two. As the drinks are downed, you feel the atmosphere between Poe and Y/F/N grow more relaxed. The two seem to scoot closer to each other and get more handsy as the night goes on. You quickly grow uncomfortable as Y/F/N's hands roam over Poe's arms and shoulders. 

"Okay, well I've had a great time, but I'm gonna head out for the night." You tell the two. 

Poe seems to sober up with your words and almost leaps out of the seat to stand beside you. 

"I'll walk you back!" He suggests, offering you his arm. 

You glance back at your friend, spotting yet another drink in her hand. 

You take his arm and you both begin your walk back to your quarters on the base. You feel him sway beside you and you tighten your grip on his arm. 

"Have you ever been told how gorgeous you are?" He asks, looking at you with that admiration in his eyes again. 

"You're drunk." You mumble back, not meeting his eyes.

"I'm a little buzzed, but drunk or not I know you're gorgeous." He says, looking at you again. 

You roll your eyes. 

"How about I'm walking you home now?" You suggest, turning a corner to where his quarters are. 

You enter his quarters, lay him down on the bed, and then bid him a quick goodnight. You make your way back to your quarters and hit the bed quickly after the door opens. You fall into a quick sleep but then you are rudely awoke by a knocking at your door. 

You groggily make your way to the door and open it. 

"Poe? It's three in the morning." You say, rubbing your eyes as you glance at the clock.

"Hey, I- I'm sorry. I don't know what I said earlier, but I just wanted to make sure I didn't say anything that hurt you. I haven't been able to stop thinking about what I might of said. About you." He says.

"Poe, I-" You start but you laugh a little. 

"You didn't say anything bad don't worry. All you told me is that you think I'm gorgeous." You tell him, stepping back to let him enter the room. 

You two stand silent for a moment. 

"Well, I'm not wrong. You are gorgeous." He replies, looking at you with those damn adoring eyes again. 

"Poe, I-" You start but you are cut off by him. 

"You don't have to feel the same way, but I'm sober enough now to realize that I'm enchanted by you. The work you do on X-Wings make them seem like they're brand new, and your laugh lights up a room like a thousand fireflies. Your smile makes my heart melt, and I can't imagine you not in my life. I know we don't know each other that well, but I would really like to get to know you better." He rambles. 

You can't feel your heart beating in your chest, but you know that it is beating a million miles a minute. 

Poe looks at the ground and starts to back up from you when you grab his white t-shirt and yank him towards you. His eyes go as wide as quarters and you look up at them. You can tell as his eyes soften that he's still slightly buzzed from the (probably) 5 drinks he had that he wants you too. 

"Y/N, I-" He starts, but you cut him off this time. 

You smash your lips against his and he lets out a low groan. His hands move to grip your hips and bring yours towards his. You smile into the kiss and then pull away, looking at him for an answer. 

His smile along with an even more powerful longing and adoring look in his eyes tells you that you did something right. 

"Do you wanna go out for a drink tomorrow? Just you and me." He suggests. 

You smile. 

"I'd like that very much." You reply, laughing with your arms wrapped around his neck. 

He smiles a goofy grin at you and kisses your nose. 

The next night's drinks go over well and you have a good time chatting with Poe and getting to know him. You can't help but feel like these drinks and late nights are the start of something much, much better. With a very, very wonderful man.
