Finnpoe Quarantine Series: Day Twenty
Day Nineteen l Day Twenty-One
"Dantooine system" Finn says, pointing at the bright spot in question, and Poe cracks a grin.
"Nice," he agrees, and Finn shines back. "You're a quick learner, buddy."
Something in Poe's voice is too quiet, too intimate to carry his usual charisma. Finn's heart shudders to a stop at hearing his words, but says nothing.
Poe turns away from the sky to look at Finn, his black eyes filled with adoration. Above them, the stars glow, the night clear just for them. They have scheduled time outside. Poe is teaching Finn all the constellations and systems the First Order told him to disregard growing up.
The night is brisk and beautiful. They're both calm, and something crackles in the air between the two men.
Neither dare to move, and together, they listen to the bugs and owls of D'Qar, bathed in moonlight and silence.
