Luke Skywalker looked out of the window to see hyperspace. He was going home. Home...home to Yavin 4, where his Jedi students where, where other Jedi were, his wife, and his six month year old son.
He had been gone, away on a mission for almost two months. It was only supposed to last a couple weeks, but things had turned bad. So he had spent a much longer time on his mission.
Excitment bubbled up in Luke's chest, excitment to see his family and students. Oh Mara and little Ben. He had missed them dearly. The Jedi had missed everyone while he was gone.
Luke hated that he had been gone for so long, but it couldn't have been helped. He sighed softly as he finally turned his head away from the window. Soon, very soon he would be home.
Since making Yavin 4 his Jedi Praxeum, it was his home. But now Mara was his home. Oh force Mara was probably furious about him being gone so long... He couldn't blame her for feeling that way though.
Suddenly a few beeps went off. He had reached Yavin 4. Luke spun around in the seat to face the controls, and bring himself out of hyperspace. As soon as he did he began to see the beautiful world of Yavin 4. He immediately sensed Mara's force presance down bellow.
Oh it was so good to be back. Luke flew his ship down to the surface and landed in the hanger bay of the Temple. He could already make out Mara's small form waiting for him.
Luke practically flew out of his ship once the ramp had lowered, and ran towards Mara.
"It took you long enough farm boy." Mara teased before walking towards her husband.
"I know, things went bad while I was there." Luke replied.
He stopped his running and took a few steps untill he was right infront of Mara. Luke smiled softly before he looked around the hanger. It was just Mara and him.
She had probably told everyone that she wanted to greet him by herself.
"You bring trouble wherever you go, that doesn't surprise me." Mara finally replied as Luke pulled her close to him.
Luke laughed nervously. "It seems so doesn't it? I missed you so much Mara, and little Ben too."
"Well it's nice to be missed. I missed you too." Mara replied, a smile on her face.
Luke ran a hand through his hair as he let the water from the shower get his hair wet. Since coming back from his mission a few hours ago, he had spent his time with Mara and their little Ben.
He was in need of a shower since he hadn't had one for a couple of days. His mission and rush to get back home was to blame for that though.
Luke hopped out of the shower getting ready to grab a towel to only feel one wrap around him. He was surprised at first.
"Were you waiting to catch me in a towel?" Luke asked as he wrapped his towel around himself.
"Obviously." Mara replied a smirk plastered across her face, before walking out.
Even though Mara had left the bathroom Luke subconsciously pulled the towel around himself tighter. He should have seen that coming.... Luke sighed softly before getting dressed in some sleep pants.
Mara always preferred it if he didn't have a shirt on while they slept, he didn't question it. Luke stepped out of the bathroom to see Mara in bed.
His eyes looked towards the door of little Ben's nursery, but he didn't go inside. He could sense that his son was asleep. Force it was hard to get him to go to sleep and stay asleep. He shook his head slightly, in his own amusement before hopping into bed next to Mara.
Luke had promised Mara that they would watch a movie of her choosing before going to sleep. What movie had Mara picked?
He had no idea. Mara hadn't told him, and he hadn't asked her.
"Fire what movie did you pick?" Luke asked curiously.
"You'll see." Mara replied as she put her head on Luke's chest.
The blonde smiled softly as Mara laid her head on his chest.
Luke ended up liking the movie in the end. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best movie he had ever seen.
Suddenly he heard wailing from the other room. Ben...
"I've got it." Luke spoke softly as he got up out of the bed and walked into Ben's nursery.
Luke entered the room to see Ben's hands balled into tiny little fists, obviously upset. He has missed Ben dearly, but he definitely hadn't missed changing his diapers. He instantly knew Ben was upset because of a soiled diaper.
Being a force sensative parent had it's benefits. Luke changed Ben into a clean diaper and onesie, then held the boy in his arms.
"Shhhh, shhhh little one. It's okay. Everything is alright." Luke spoke softly.
Eventually he managed to calm little Ben down, and make him fall back asleep.
Luke smiled softly at his little boy before making his way back to Mara.
"Ben's asleep for now." Luke said as he hopped into bed next to Mara.
"Well he never sleeps for long." Mara muttered sleepily as she put her head on Luke's chest.
Mara had a point. Ben always woke up during the night and early morning. They should probably get some sleep while they could....
Luke gently kissed Mara on the top of her head with a smile before trying to fall asleep. These past two months have been a little rough, and he was exhausted.
"I always sleep best when you're next to me." Mara spoke before falling asleep right after.
Luke smiled softly and kissed Mara's head again before falling asleep himself.
