Javier Peña. Javier Peña. Javier Peña. If only your diary could see you now.
In his room. In his bed. And not for the first time.
You smile as you turn over on your side, take a deep inhale of the scent that clings to his pillow. He smells so good. How does he always smell so good? The scent is not even one you can easily identify. He just…he smells like heat feels. The way it can make you burn even as you long to curl up against it.
You turn onto your back again as you listen for the sound of the shower across the hall. Knowing he’s in there without a stitch of clothing and without you seems particularly unfair. You close your eyes and picture it. Wet hair and wet skin. The smell of his soap and his shampoo curling into the steam. Water running from the shower head to his broad shoulders and strong arms, a steady stream down the planes of his chest and stomach, lower to…You groan, grab the pillow from behind your head and press it to your face.
It had been easier to think straight back before you knew what he looked like naked. The things you could have accomplished…back before your sex drive took over and flipped a switch in your brain as easily as he likes to flip you on his mattress.
Yes, you had pined, you had fantasized–had you ever fantasized, but now you know. And God, did he have to be so pretty? Isn’t the real thing not supposed to ever be able to compare to what you've imagined?
Will that be the case for this, too?
You’re doing it. Tonight. You’ve decided. You can’t keep losing your nerve just because you’re not completely sure of what to do. After all, you’ve done it before, and your college boyfriend certainly hadn't complained so…But what if you do something wrong and Javier decides he’d prefer someone with a bit more experience?
No, you’re doing this. You want to do this. It has been on your mind every time you’ve been with him, every time you’ve seen him strip his clothes away, every time you’ve felt the thick width of him pushing into you. Not to mention every few hours in between.
You want to know what he would feel like in your mouth. What he tastes like. You want to make him feel good like he always does for you. Want to hear the sounds he makes, the words he says.
Just like that, bonita. Always so good for me.
You moan, remove the pillow from your face and open your eyes to stare up at the popcorn ceiling and the spinning wicker-blade fan. You should have just gone in there with him. You had been insane not to. The risk of getting caught pales in comparison to the reality of not getting pressed up between him and those shower tiles right now.
Sure, you’d never be able to look Chucho in the eyes again, and he’d probably tell your parents but is that really…
Bad. Very bad. Get a grip.
You take a deep breath and sit up, pushing up the bed until your back is against the headboard. This is better. Collected. Patient. Simply and calmly waiting for him to return as if your stomach isn’t in knots and you’re not already embarrassingly wet between your thighs from a few kisses and from just thinking of him.
Jesus Christ, you want him so bad it aches.
How long has it been since he helped you through the window? Can’t be more than a few minutes even though it feels more like hours.
You had come over as soon as you’d been sure your parents were asleep, had expected to find that Chucho already was as well but…Instead Javier had pulled you through the window with even more haste than the previous night, had kissed you before you could get out a single word.
“Pop’s still awake,” he had whispered in your ear when he pulled away. “We just got done.”
“With what?” You had whispered back. You had been able to taste the hard work from the day in the salt on his lips, feel it in the way his dirt and dust-streaked white button-up shirt was damp with sweat beneath your palms.
“We put in a new gate in the back pasture. Took way longer than it should have. Fuck, been thinking about this all day.” He had leaned down to kiss you again then, hungrier, more urgent, a tempo that you had instantly risen to meet as your fingers moved to the buttons of his shirt.
He had groaned when your fingers hit bare skin, had slipped his hands into the back pockets of your jeans and tugged you against him. Not really necessary since you had already been trying to press up against him in any way you could.
“Bonita.” His voice had been low, insistent, drawing you even closer. “Come shower with me.”
You had already been nodding, his mouth a teasing breath away from yours, when the first thing he’d said had started shouting at you from the last remnants of your self-control.
“Wait.” Your head had jerked back as Javier made a low sound of disapproval at the loss of contact. “You just said Chucho was still awake.”
“He’s going to bed. We'll be quiet,” he had reassured you, sounding so very confident that could be the case that you had almost believed him, especially with the way he was nosing along your shoulder until—
The sound of a door opening and closing somewhere in the house had made you jump, and even Javier had done a quick turn to make sure the door hadn’t been his own. When his eyes returned to yours, the resignation that he would be showering alone had already been there.
“Alright, fine.” Another deep kiss with just enough teeth to it to let you know he was anything but fine with it. “Five minutes.”
Five minutes. It has to have been five minutes by now.
As if on cue, you hear the water shut off, the sound of metal curtain rings being dragged forcefully along the rod, a brief pause, the sound of one door opening and then another.
You’re not sure you even register the sound of his bedroom door shutting again before everything zeros in on him. All he’s wearing is a towel, hung low across his waist, though he seems to have barely taken time to use it. His hair is just roughly dried, water droplets still on his skin. His eyes are already dark when they find you on his bed.
You collide somewhere in the middle, with you halfway off the bed and him halfway on. He barely pauses when he connects with you, his arm wrapping around your waist and carrying you through the rest of his trajectory to the center of the bed. Your shirt is already clinging to your skin before he gets the chance to tug it off, water from his bare chest absorbed into the soft fabric. Your jeans are next, the button popped loose with a flick of his fingers before he drags them down your legs. Then you’re on your back, his hands racing down your body.
You arch into him with a quiet moan, your mouth seeking his. He smells so good. He always smells so good. His own scent now mixing with the smell of soap and the taste of mint. You can feel yourself getting lost in it, slipping happily into the sensation of being surrounded by him.
No, you said tonight. You want to do this tonight.
Your hands push at his shoulders once and then again a bit harder, and he rolls onto his back while rolling you on top of him. You straddle him, the towel now lost and only the thin fabric of your underwear separating you. You roll your hips against him, feeling him hard and ready beneath you before you bend down to cup his face in your hands. Your mouth presses against his, soft and sweet, as you try to settle yourself, and you feel his brow furrow against yours. His hands move to cradle your back as he sits up with you.
“You alright?” He murmurs against your mouth, and you nod, breathy and nervous again.
“Yeah, I just, um..” You tangle your fingers in his wet hair as your lips move from his mouth to his jaw. “There’s something I want to do.”
His shoulders release some of their tension, and he tips his head back to give you better access. “What do you want, bonita?”
You reach the crook of his neck and nuzzle in for just a moment before you place an open mouthed kiss along his shoulder and start to move lower. “I, um…”
You’re halfway down his chest, your palms on his shoulders, before his hands wrap around your upper arms and pull you back up. His right hand releases you so he can cup your jaw and make your eyes meet his.
“What do you want?” he asks you, his eyes warm and searching. “Tell me.” He’s always so patient with you.
“I want you…” You answer him softly, your voice trailing off before you can get the rest out. His head tilts to the side, probably trying to understand what you could possibly mean when he had been halfway to having you before you had made him slow down.
Your eyes drop from his as you try to get the words out. Why does this have you so worked up? It’s like you’re tripping over yourself.
His mouth meets yours, coaxing, his tongue lazily stroking the seam of your lips until you part for him. He captures your bottom lip then, nipping lightly, and the hand that’s still on your arm starts making soothing passes up and down.
“Where do you want me, bonita? Is that the better question?” He murmurs to you. His hand is still on your jaw as you quietly nod, and your own hands grasp his and shift it higher. When his thumb brushes your lips, you open, your tongue tracing it before you wrap your lips around it and suck.
He hisses out a breath, his hips involuntarily jerking beneath you as he shifts you in his lap. “You want me in your mouth, cariño? That what you want?” He drags his thumb from your mouth, swiping the wet tip against your bottom lip.
“I just, um, I don’t really know…” You confess. “Can you tell…teach me? What you like?”
His eyes squeeze shut, a ragged breath in and out. When his eyes open again, it’s only halfway as he studies you. “Fuck, you’re killing me.” He kisses you, hard, the hand that had been on your jaw edging back to bury itself in the hair at the nape of your neck as you grip his arm. “Yes, baby, I’ll teach you.”
You let out a soft whine as a shot of need spikes through you, almost like you had been waiting for confirmation that you would be getting what you want. You lean forward to kiss him again right above his pulse point, feeling the rapid beat.
You go slowly, Javier leaning back on his arms as you start to work your way down his chest. There are still drops of water on his skin that haven’t been wiped away by you or his sheets, and you lap them up with your tongue wherever you find them. When you capture one along his side, just beneath his ribs, his muscles tense and you see his fingers curl more firmly into his quilt. Your eyes flick up to meet his, and the want in them makes your breath catch.
You need to do this more. Take time studying every inch of him so you can commit it to memory. Every rise and fall, every place that he’s sensitive, every piece that makes him…him.
You shift again, crawling backward, and he adjusts so that you can settle into the open space between his legs. His hard length is lying flush against the soft swell of his stomach as you lower yourself, and you let out a breath you didn’t know you’d been holding as you draw close. When you look up at him once more, his eyes are on you from beneath his dark lashes, his teeth digging into his bottom lip.
There’s a bead of moisture on the tip, and you’re not sure if it’s still from the shower or from him before you reach out to lick it up just as you had the others. The salty taste that immediately hits your tongue and the way he moans tells you that it’s him, and you do it again, then again in hopes that he’ll give you more.
“Fuck,” Javier murmurs as he groans and rolls his head back. “Cariño, you seem to be doing just fine on your own. That good?”
You nod, your mouth still close enough that your lips brush up and down the underside of his length. Since he seems to like it, you repeat the movement with your tongue, a broad and firm stripe up before you return to the sensitive head. You wrap your lips around him and suckle lightly.
“That’s it. Good girl, fuck, just like that.” His words zing through you and settle right between your thighs making you squeeze them together. You’re tempted to slip your hand between them to give yourself some relief but instead you wrap it around his base, your fingers not quite touching.
Fuck, he’s so big. How will you even take him in your mouth?
“You can grip a little harder, baby,” he tells you softly, more of a suggestion than a demand. You’re quick to follow but hesitate when you worry you’ll hurt him. He sits up a little more, still bracing himself on one hand while his other reaches down to cover yours. He squeezes. “You feel that? How tight?”
You nod again, breaking your gaze away from the sight of his hand enveloping yours so you can see his face.
“That’s how tight you squeeze me when I’m buried inside you, little thing.” His hand starts to move yours slowly up and down, and you swallow hard as you watch him. He lets out an uneven exhale. “Feels good, baby, just like that.”
You dip your head again to lick up the moisture leaking from the tip, and his hand tightens even harder over yours when you take the head of him back into your mouth. When you start to suck, he rotates his wrist slightly, guiding you to do the same as you continue to work him up and down. You don’t stop when he takes his hand away.
“Fuck, bonita, so good. So good for me.” His breathing is coming in quick pants, his chest rising and falling rapidly as he watches you.
You’re practically vibrating from the praise, the ache between your thighs nothing when you have the chance to hear more of it. Feeling bolder, you start to sink down on him, letting the smooth hard skin stroke your tongue before you pull back up. He moans, one of his hands burying itself in your hair, holding it back and away from your face. On the next dip down, you go lower.
Your progress is steady, taking him a little deeper each time. He keeps shifting slightly beneath you, low sounds escaping even when he manages to keep his movements restrained. Still every once in a while his hips roll, his hand tugs. Every once in a while his control slips. You like it when it does.
You’re breathing through your nose, taking in the spiced scent of him and the clean smell of soap as you press closer, your mouth almost brushing your still moving hand. You get so lost in the rhythm, the feeling of him overwhelming you, the taste of him on your tongue, that you slip a little farther down than you’d intended. You choke, cough as you hit your gag reflex and pull away.
“Sorry,” you mutter as your cheeks flush suck in a breath.
“Sorry?” he croons to you. “I can barely keep it together, cariño.” He leans forward to cup the back of your head and pull you closer so he can kiss your forehead. “You’re perfect, baby, just go slow.”
You settle back between his legs and try again, going slower this time like he said. You move your hand away from the base to cup him lower, massaging gently and swallowing back the urge to gag again when you go as deep as you can. You swallow, your nose brushing the wiry hair at the base and your exhaled breath drifting through it as you hold and hold even as your jaw begins to ache.
“Fuck, fuck, fuck.” He pulls you off of him fast, rougher than you’re used to him handling you, and a thrill goes up your spine as he drags you back up into his lap.
“Did I do something wrong?” You ask, your voice shaky.
“Fuck, you’re going to make me fucking come.” He reaches for the drawer of his nightstand, hand fumbling for a condom as you smile, wrap your arms around his neck, and nestle into his chest. Once he has one, you lift up, giving him space to roll it on, and you’re about to move to the side so you can slip off your panties when he pulls you back, tugs the fabric to the side with a quick efficiency and slips two fingers inside as you moan at the stretch.
“Stay right here. Going to fucking lose it.” His fingers start to thrust shallowly in and out. “Fuck you are dripping.” His free hand grabs your chin so that your face is an inch from his. “You’re perfect, you understand?”
You lean in so he’ll kiss you, but instead he slips his fingers out. You panic, afraid he might leave you on this edge. “Wait, yes, I understand…”
“Good.” He lines himself up and starts pushing in. “Look at you. Already ready to take me. You get this turned on sucking my cock, cariño?”
You whimper as you start to move with him, making slow progress as you sink down that reminds you of the way you took him in your mouth. You groan.
“Going to have to get you to learn to use those words as your next lesson, bonita.” He thrusts into you, deep and to the hilt, and you gasp as he hits the spot deep inside that makes you see stars, but then he stops moving again.
“Javi,” you plead with him, “move.”
He does, but it’s a slow rock into you that’s not nearly enough. “You need something more, cariño? Tell me.”
“Please,” you murmur, trying to rotate your hips on your own. “Harder.” The change is immediate, his thrusts punching into you as your head falls back. “Yes, just like that. Fuck, Javi.”
“There you go, bonita. Taking it so well.” He nips his way down the side of your neck. “What else will you tell me if I keep letting you ride my cock, hm? That what it takes to get you to use your words?”
“Mm.” You can feel it dragging you under, that climax that had been building since you’d climbed in through his window. Maybe before. “What do you—” He rewards you again with a snap of his hips. “What do you want to hear?”
“I want to hear you ask for what you wanted earlier. I want to hear you say it.” His hands move to your back, undoing the clasp of your bra before helping you slip it off and toss it to the side. His wide palms support you as he leans you back, your hands returning to their favorite place in his hair as his mouth finds you. Teeth graze your nipple, before he wraps his lips around the hardened peak, and you keen.
“I—I wanted…” His movements start to slow, and you get the rest out in a rush. “I wanted your cock in my mouth. I wanted to taste you, wanted to make you feel good, and…” One of his hands drifts down to hover over your clit. “And I wanted you to fuck me.”
He grins against your skin. You can feel it. “Good girl.”
His fingers rub your clit as his mouth captures your other breast and his pace quickens just slightly, and it’s enough…more than enough. You come, clinging to him, and biting your lip to keep from crying out from the force of it.
He’s not far behind you, seemed to only be holding on as long as you did. He grips you tight as he lets go, moving until the height of it passes, then he slowly falls back with you so that you’re once again lying on top of him.
Several long minutes pass before you’ve caught your breath. When you have, you fold your arms across his chest, raise up and peer down at him. He looks sleepy but satisfied, eyes drifting closed and the corner of his mouth turned up.
“What are you thinking about, bonita?” He asks, his hand starting to draw lazy circles on your bare back.
You press your mouth against his chest, a mischievous smile playing at your lips. “I was thinking about what other things you might like to teach me.”
His eyes open wider, and he raises his head enough that his gaze locks with yours. “Bonita, I will teach you anything you want to learn. All you have to do is ask.”

Pairing: Luke Skywalker x reader
Word Count: 3215k
Summary: Luke thinks the day shall be seemingly peaceful and perfectly content…until he finds you struck with an illness he must help care for.
A/N: I started writing this when I was sick, and whilst i'm better now, I do hope this helps comfort two of my friends who are! <3
Luke woke up early this seemingly delightful morning, eyes both kissed and scorched by the golden rays of the morning sun as it dawned upon his sleepy figure; easing him into a state of consciousness.
His first instinct, just as the day before and just as likely fated to be the same tomorrow, is to turn his attention to you in order for you to be the first thing he sees and may admire when he awakens. That alone is the key to a great day in his opinion, getting to wake up next to you and watch as your chest rises and falls with light breaths, and the way your lips are slightly parted with your messy hair framing your pretty face.
His day cannot start until he can be assured you are next to him, safe and happy in his loving gaze.
You seem so peaceful and content, therefore he did not have the heart to wake you up so selfishly. He leaned over, careful for his movements to be anything but heavy as he pressed a gentle kiss to your cheek; the heat of your flesh warm and inviting against his soft lips.
Naturally, he finds himself to be smiling as he rises from the bed, getting himself dressed and ready to attend to his students.
He hates to leave you just to wake up on your own whenever that time may be, yet alas, he would have to go regardless of his desires. You would be just fine, and close by if anything were to happen.
He whispered a sweet “I love you.” before leaving you to your rest, hoping you don’t wake up too lonely whilst he's gone.
Soon after, the fog of dreams lifted on your end, and reality was born before your eyes as they fluttered open just to squeeze shut again in mere seconds. It wasn’t simply the sunlight of which was a source of woe, but too the dizzying pressure in your head that had struck you immediately.
Something was deeply wrong, wrong enough to be noticed despite the dreadful sleepiness that swarmed you like a warm weighted blanket fresh from the dryer.
You sniffled, noticing how both stuffy and runny your nose felt- there too was a soreness in your throat, gathering the unrelenting need to clear it over and over as fluids coated it on the inside.
“No…not today!” You could not help but whine in such a moment as this, dreading the very idea of being sick so suddenly and without warning.
Okay, that's not entirely true- for over the past two days, you’d noticed your throat felt rather dry, but being sick never crossed your mind. Instead, you simply drowned your throat in water and called it a day. You thought perhaps you had spoken too much, or hadn’t drank enough water, for germs were never a suspect.
Immediately, your body and mind craved comfort and care for this curse of illness casted upon you. You wanted to be cuddled, soothed, and brought copious amounts of soup until you could start feeling better at last, to be cared for as a parent does for a child.
You wanted Luke most of all, reaching out for the empty space next to you where he no longer was; The only remnants of his presence was that of his imprint left in the mattress, the imprint of which had been lovingly filled when you had first gone to rest the night before.
You extended your arm, reaching for his pillow as you brought it close to you like a teddy bear. You nuzzled your face into it, gathering his scent, for the pillow smelt of him; eucalyptus, and the light mist of fresh springwater, paired with a flowery scent that you could not put your finger on but was comforting nevertheless. You did in fact worry that your germs would swarm the fabric, but you could always wash it later- you needed the comfort when in such a state as this, and you dearly hoped he would not mind (Which, in all probability, he wouldn’t).
A sharp pain then built in your throat, mimicking the sharp stabbing of a dozen knives as it caused you to cough about a dozen times. You couldn’t stop as hard as you tried, a tingling feeling in the back of your throat that demanded your coughs of suffrage as compensation. Your throat was beyond irritated, close to nausea after such a fit.
You just about wanted to cry, too tired to deal with this. It wasn’t fair, and so suddenly were you mourning the days when your illness was beyond comprehension, when you could lay back without the mucus wishing to be drained.
Furthermore, from a distance did Luke sense something to be wrong indeed, the very fabric of the force singing to him in silent desperation. He attempted to focus on it, yet the younglings had so many questions for him at this time in their lesson, therefore he waited until the break in between sessions to go and check on just what was the matter.
Once the break commenced, he was quick to return to you, wasting no time as he entered the home you had shared and built together.
As he entered the bedroom, his heart dropped as he saw you curled up under the blankets, your poor figure shivering and holding his pillow to your body as you struggled to keep the coughs at bay.
You appeared so weak and delicate, suffering under the effects of a sneaky illness. He couldn’t stand to see you this way, immediately tending to your side as he crouched next to you, pressing a hand to your forehead before placing his lips there instead, feeling the warmth you radiated so violently.
“Luke?” You mumbled out, voice sounding so rough and weakened. You had barely noticed him enter the room, a telltale sign of your state.
“I’m here, star, im here…” He tried his best to give you a reassuring smile, despite how much it pained him to see you like this. “Sick, huh?”
You nodded with a frown, sniffling to drain your nose as your eyes wet themselves with the buildup of tears. “I don’t…don’t feel good-”
He had the strongest urge to care for you, to do everything in his power to make you feel a little less terrible than you did now. How could he leave you like this? His heart sank at seeing your state of being, and he simply wished to do all he could for you.
He made a choice in regards to the day he had originally planned, one he was perfectly content with. “I’ll be right back, alright? Try and rest. Close your eyes for me, it’ll help.”
You complied, eyes falling heavy as you heard his footsteps disappear into the distance. You wondered what he was doing, although your brain was much too fried to think about anything too deeply.
After a few minutes, he came right back, once again crouched by your side with a cold cloth to be placed on your forehead. You hummed in response, for it felt so nice on your skin. It was the best sensation you had felt all morning, compared to the waging war of your immune system.
You then remembered something, gazing up at him with tired eyes as it occurred to you. “Mmm’ Luke…don’t-” Cough, “-You have-” Cough. “-Class today?”
He smiled warmly, shaking his head as if to reassure you as quickly as possible. “I cancelled, don’t worry. Who else will take care of you but me?”
You were glad, although did not let it show as to not be selfish over his time you had stolen from the padawans. “You didn’t have to do that…”
“Star,” The loving nickname lingered over his tongue, drawing it out as if to question you with a hint of amusement in his tone. “You’re hugging my pillow for comfort- I think you need me.”
You blushed, or at least you think you did if your face isn’t already pink tinted. You and Luke were equally needy when it came to each other, sure, yet that intensified when you were sick- you’d have him glued to your side if you could.
He brought a hand to your forehead, brushing your hair out of your face with the tips of his fingers. “Can I make you some soup, see if that helps you?”
You nodded, weakly so. “Please…I would like that, if you don't mind.”
“The regular, I assume?” He asked for clarification, a gentle smile tugging at his lips. He knew you liked to be cared for whilst also not wanting to be a burden, but to him, you could never be such a thing. Caring for you made him happy, for he could help soothe the one he loved most.
“Mhm.” You hummed in response, thus watching as he got up to make his way over to the kitchen, your eyes struggling to stay open as you found yourself succumbing to the dark fog that was a deserved nap.
It's truly a surprise that you could fall asleep at all when in such a condition, therefore you would take whatever chance you got for some rest.
Luke smiled to himself, knowing you were napping peacefully, and for that he was glad. It was the one moment in which you could have any true peace, not having to experience the effects that's plagued you so terribly.
He loved you so much, and hated seeing you sick more than he naturally should. He loved seeing you smile, or strut about the room with such grace, making his heart burn for you with the sound of your laughter…but seeing you so weak and fragile, so pale and miserable at that, brought him great pain.
He gathered the ingredients at the kitchen counter, setting up the pot and cutting up some vegetables for your soup with a rapid ease.
He thought himself to be a decent cook, with recipes he already knew, at least. He had his aunt to thank for that, having taught him how to cook select recipes when he was growing up.
This soup was always one of his favourites, and now one of yours, of which Beru had taught him how to make. It was a simple recipe, lots of spices- there was only one thing he had adjusted for your liking, and that was grating the carrots in as opposed to chopping them. It was a texture thing for you, mushy carrots not having much of an appeal.
The process of making it wasn’t too long, some time passing before he could bring it to you. He too took some time to allow it to cool down, too giving you more time to rest in the process. As he did this, he kept glancing back into the room you laid within, tinges of worry tainting his mind.
He quietly spoke your name as he nudged you awake, already having placed your soup on the bedside table for you. He made sure to be gentle with his nudges, not wishing to disrupt you poorly.
“Mm?” You hummed, voice raspy as your eyes fluttered open. “Oh…Hi.”
You were so sweet as you looked up at him, feeling awful yet still so happy to see him as you always were. It made his heart flutter with the dancing of butterflies.
He smiled, pressing his curved lips to your forehead again to read your temperature. “Still hot, I see. You should take the blanket off, i don’t want you to overheat or-”
“I’m always hot.” You tried to joke, yet it didn’t much land, for your tone was quite monotone and depressed sounding due to the physical state. “-But yes…”
You caused a slight chuckle to slip past him, and for that you were glad as he thus asked you to kindly sit up in order to eat the soup he had made for you.
You nodded, carefully and rather slowly pulling yourself up to sit with you back leaning against the headboard of your shared bed.
“Good girl,” That smile was still on his face as he praised your efforts, causing you to blush. He didn’t mean it in any way that you may have been thinking, for it was a rather innocent praise.
He took the mug of soup from the nightstand, holding it carefully as he took the spoon, gathering some broth on it as he brought it to your lips. You had no complaints in regards to him helping you like this, so you parted your lips in return and allowed for him to ease the spoon into your mouth.
As you swallowed, it felt comfortingly warm against your throat and dry mouth, the spices dancing on your tongue as the flavours hit you like a harmonious song.
“Thank you…” You spoke after a few more spoonfuls of soup, swallowing the liquid coating in your throat as you did so.
Luke is always so good to you, allowing for you to feel so loved and cared for. You couldn’t feel more appreciative of the man who sat before you.
You reached a hand to him, cupping his cheek as you caressed the pink flesh with your thumb. Your touch was so gentle to him, perfectly delicate and warm due to the heat you radiated.
“Can we cuddle, please?” You pleaded, giving him the cutest pout and puppy eyes.
How could he say no when you asked so nicely, and needed him so much today? He was quite sure that his heart must be melting in his chest.
“Of course. It's hardly a question, you know. ” He smiled so warmly once again with a joy that felt like medicine, placing the mug on the bedside table as you scooched over for him, giving him room to lay with your back to his chest.
You worried that facing him would put him at risk of gathering your germs, therefore spooning was the safest position…yet part of you hated that very fact. Your love language is physical affection; you wanted to kiss him, to place your lips all over his rosy cheeks and soft lips, and you wanted just the same from him in return.
He had his leg draped over your own, his face nuzzled into your hair and neck as his hand found its place upon your chest, feeling your heartbeat thump against him in a calming manner. It was peaceful to know your blood was pumping healthily through your veins, even in a state that may have left you feeling as if death was on its way.
Though, he could indeed sense something was bothering you, a sudden riff like the waves on a calm ocean becoming disturbed. Something was on your mind.
“Star, is something wrong?”
You would feel rather silly having to explain that you’re pouting because you can’t kiss him until you get better, so you brushed it off instead. “Mmm no, just keep holding me, okay?”
He wasn’t buying it, but just nodded, pressing a kiss to your hair as he felt the disturbance once again. He was beginning to catch on, smiling to himself for the fact that you were always so needy for him, craving his affection; he adored it, truth be told. He felt so wanted and loved because of it, but make no mistake, he still wished to comfort the anguish of which he was not so very fond of in comparison.
You felt him pull away from you before slowly and gently nudging you around to face him, leaving you half laying on your back. He placed a hand on your chin, thumb running over your bottom lip as he began to question you. “Starflower, be honest with me; are you upset because you think I can't kiss you?”
You blushed, forgetting how quickly he catches onto things. “Well…but you…you know can’t- i’ll get you sick and i don’t wanna be the reason you get sick…”
“You didn’t answer my question.” His tone was both reassuring to protect you from embarrassment, while also teasing at once.
You sighed, pushing a cough down your throat as you did so. “Yes…I am- don’t laugh at me.”
He shook his head, blushing just as you were. “I'm not laughing, I promise.”
You tried to hide your face in the pillows, escaping his gaze as his grasp drifted to run through your hair soothingly. “I’m not afraid to kiss you just because of a few germs. You only have to ask me.”
“It would be selfish to get you sick, Luke.”
“And it would be selfish for me to deny you when you want me…Star, there is nothing I would hesitate to give you.”
You peered up at him again with the brightest blush, shy to give in. “Don’t blame me when you get sick then.”
His heart thumped in his chest, eyes switching between your lips and your sleepy eyes. “The padawans deserve a break for how hard they have been working, and we get to spend time together. I don’t sense a problem with this.”
He had his right arm resting on the other side of your head as he looked down on you, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. A few quiet moments passed like this, finding comfort in close proximity before you thus spoke quietly, pushing a smile from your lips. “Kiss me, please…”
“Hm? What was that, sweetheart?” He lightly teased, wishing to lighten the mood further, thinking a tad bit of silliness may ease your mind.
“Luke…” You whined, pouting. Although, there was a part of you that would have giggled if not for being sick.
He let out a chuckle, lowering his lips onto your own as they connected, latching onto one another as if they had moulded to fit together as a perfect puzzle piece over the years. The kiss was soft, and left your lips feeling warm and tingly as his kisses always did. Even the curves of your smiles blended together smoothly, considered almost addicting.
You could feel the tug of his smile against your own throughout the entirety of the moment, so blissful even when in the company of countless germs. It was a lovely contrast, truly. That was what you loved most, the fact he could make the dark times seem like a paradise.
Reluctantly did he pull away, yet not far enough for his hot breath still danced against your skin. “See? That wasn’t so bad, star…”
You shook your head, raising your arms up to wrap around his neck. “Just wait until you get sick, maybe you’ll change your mind.”
“It’ll be worth it.”
You couldn’t help but laugh, coughing along the way and yet not phasing him in the least as the germs were likely spread over him. “You’re ridiculous, Skywalker.”
“I’m only in love.”
With another cough, you spoke. “When did you get so cheesy?”
This would be one cue to say something along the lines of “when i fell in love with you”, but fortunately for you, he instead replaces such a phrase with another interlocking of lips instead. Suddenly, being sick wasn’t so bad as it once appeared…
Shuri felt safe around Namor.
A year of her mom, her closest friends and family trying to get Shuri to open up about her grief was ineffective. However, after this King who everyone was afraid of, shared his life story, his history, his culture and his secrets with her she felt safe enough to share her complex feelings about her brother's death to him. Grief she had buried within for a year was laid bare, practically spilling her guts to him, in the face of Namor's own openness and vulnerability.
I think Shuri still longs for the connection she had with Namor even after everything that happened. She's more untethered than ever before and longs for the only person she ever felt that instant connection to but she can't go to him because it's not easy to forgive. So she goes to Haiti, the beach, as close to the water as she can and she cries.
