The 501st were stuck on Hoth. It had been two months and they still had another month. Everyone was unhappy and moral was really low.
Ahsoka looked around at all of her men's sad faces before turning to her master and captain.
Both of them were still dancing around there feeling's.
Ahsoka wished there was away to get them together.
That was until an idea came to her. One that would get Rex and Anakin together and boost moral.
Excited by her new plan. Ahsoka quickly made her way to see the boys in Torrent and tell them her plan.
"Everyone stop what your doing."
Fives and Echo quickly put Dogma down while Tup and Kix glared at them and Jessie gave them a thumbs up.
Everyone looked at each other before Fives spoke first.
"Nothing important commander. Now what can we do for you?"
I have a plan to help moral.
"How are you going to fix moral?"
"I have a plan to get Rex and Anakin together."
Kix wilted at that along with everyone else.
"No offence Commander but that's impossible."
"Not anymore Tho because I have a plan.
"And what plan is that Commander?"
"Thank you for asking Echo?"
"No problem Commander. But what's the plan?
Ahsoka broke out into a huge grin.
"There going to share a tent together."
Jessie looked confused while Echo got excited.
"I don't get it. How would sharing a tent get them together."
Echo quickly cut him off.
"Because Jessie. It's cold."
"That means there going to have to cuddle for warmth and since the General is from a desert planet and can't handle the cold well. Rex is going to help him.
"Okay but how do we get them to share a tent."
Dogma worriedly looked at Fives.
Fives marched over to a bunch of tents and started pulling things out of it.
Kix was the first to shout out what was on everyone's mind.
"FIVES WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!?!?!."
"What does it look like?"
After Fives was done he grabbed a large stick and started walking to the fire.
"Dogma was the first to realize what he was doing.
Hardcase who had been on guard duty ran over.
Fives held the flaming stick up.
"I'm getting the General and Captain together."
Then Fives threw the flaming stick at the tents.
Hardcase started to cheer while everyone else stared in shock.
Everyone turned to Fives who was grinning at the flames.
Before anyone could do anything Anakin and Rex rushed over and Rex was the first to speak.
Everyone quickly stood to attention before Fives spoke first.
"How did a fire happen Fives."
"I don't know. I think it was the wind."
Hardcase cackled which caused Rex to turn to him.
"Anything you would like to say trooper?"
"Do you know what happened?"
Rex looked annoyed at that response.
"Commander what happened?"
"Rex it was the wind. We all saw it. Right guys."
"How many tents were burned ."
Dogma was the first to speak.
Rex pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Who's tents were burned.
"Fives, mine, Jessie's, Your's, Matchstick, Copper, Ash, Chatterbox, Jex, Twitch.
"Okay then Fives you are going with Echo. Dogma your going with Tup, Jessie your going with Kix, Matchstick your going with Rio, Copper your going with system. Ash your going with Risk. Chatterbox your going with circuit. Jex your going with Drag and Twitch your going with Slip."
Everyone started moving around and doing things while Rex sighed and Fives walked up to Rex.
"Rex where are you going to sleep."
Fives shrugged his shoulders trying to seem like he didn't care.
"Why don't you sleep with General Skywalker. Since your both officers."
Rex and Anakin looked at each other and both of them were blushing.
"I don't mind Rex. We can share a tent."
Rex looked at his still smoking tent.
"Okay, sir. I will take you up on your offer.
"Do you need help moving your stuff into my tent."
"It's fine I only have my backpack."
"Um, sir which tent is yours."
"Oh right. I will show you. Come on Rex."
Rex quickly grabbed his bag and followed his General.
"Here it is. You can make yourself comfortable while I go do something really fast."
Anakin ran into the comms tent. His face was bright red but he quickly dialed Padme.
Anakin was bright red and he bursted out.

"Ani can you please repeat that?"
Anakin could hear Padme's wife Sabe in the background before she popped into the screen.
"Hey Anakin, how's it going."
"Not well apparently all though I couldn't understand him because he was talking so fast."
"It's fine just repeat what you said."
"Okay, well I said that Rex's tent was burned down so we are sharing a tent."
"That's very nice of you Ani."
"I think the real question is how did the tent burn down."
Padme gave Sabe a disapproving look.
"What I have questions and I need answers, so how did his tent burn down.
Oh well, Fives and some of the trooper's said it was the wind. They had a campfire going to stay warm and the wind must have blown the fire onto nearby tents.
"Mighty convinent his tent was burned."
"Anakin cocked his head. What do you mean?"
"Oh nothing. Why don't you continue."
Anakin thought back to the rest of what he was saying.
"The rest of that was just me ranting. It's not important."
Just then Anakin could hear troopers just outside of the tent.
"Alright Ani I will talk to you soon."
The trooper's entered and saluted him while Anakin just waved them off and left.
He was going to be sharing a tent with Rex. The man he a huge crush on. He could do this.
Anakin walked to his tent. It was evening and pretty soon everyone would be in bed except for those on shift.
Anakin was about to open the tent but stopped himself.
He breathed in and then out before repeating to himself. That he could do it.
Anakin unzipped the tent and walked in.
The first thing he saw was Rex shirtless and his brain broke down.
Rex was hot and he was screwed.
I can't do this. But it was to late Rex had already seen him.
"Hello General Skywalker."
"You can call me Anakin. Were off duty right now."
Anakin was going to put on his pajamas when he stopped and blushed.
His pajamas were a soft sweater dress Padme had gotten him. It was really warm and cozy. When ever he wore it he couldn't help but feel safe. It was the same color as his eyes.
Anakin had never worn it in front of anyone before because he was embarrassed. But that wasn't the only embarrassing part. He also liked to sleep with a collar on. It was a simple black color that had a bell on it. The color fit perfectly on his neck. He was always embarrassed about it and kept it a secret from almost everyone.
"Are you okay Gen-Anakin?"
"If I tell you, you have to promise me you won't tell anyone or that you won't laugh at me."
Rex was confused but agreed.
Anakin looked really nervous.
"Okay but can you turn around."
Rex turned around and Anakin got ready.
He put his soft sweater dress on and instantly started to relax. He kept his leggings on and put on his collar.
Rex was confused when he heard what sounded like a bell.
"You can turn around now Rex."
Rex turned around slowly and choked in surprise.
