Ever since you first joined the rebels and helped destroy the first Death Star, Luke and you have been nearly inseparable. Almost from the very first moment you met you knew that you would spend a long time together. And yet, even though you have indeed spent a lot of time together, something seems odd to you right now. He has been behaving differently lately. Especially around you.
Yesterday, for example, whenever your eyes met in all the chaos at the rebel base, he smiled at you and could not seem to tear his eyes away from you, because you were always the one to look away first. It has been a long time since you have seen him smile as often as yesterday, and although you are obviously glad that your best friend is happy, it still strikes you as odd.
Or two rotations ago when you were writing your mission report, accidentally fell asleep in the lounge from exhaustion, and finally woke up with a blanket covering your body. Luke was sitting next to you, finishing your report and when you tried to stop him, he only denied you with a loving smile on his face.
"Luke, is something going on?", you straight out ask him now, unable to stand the way he behaves around you any longer. However, he just dismisses your question with a slight shake of his head and a soft smile, before placing his hand on the small of your back to gently guide you towards the briefing room, where a few rebels have already gathered.
Not at all satisfied with his answer, you allow him to guide you to a seat, sitting down side by side while waiting for a general to step forward and deliver their briefing in front of everyone. Meanwhile, you bounce your leg up and down, looking around and greeting other pilots, admirals and generals you are familiar with. It is only when you feel warmth on top of your thigh that you stop and turn to see that Luke placed his hand on your leg, deep in conversation with Wedge while doing so.
You stare at his hand spread across your leg for maybe a second too long and a strange feeling arises inside of you that you quickly shake off as soon as the general begins to speak and all eyes and ears are on him.
As you try to focus on the briefing, you can barely ignore Luke's hand burning through the fabric of your pants and when you look at Luke from the side, admiring his beautiful profile, he notices it immediately, a smile twitching at the corners of his lips before gifting you a wink and turning his gaze back to the front. Heat rises in your cheeks and you lean back a little further in your seat, trying to hide it.
Since when is he acting like this and, even more importantly, since when does it have this effect on you?
Once the meeting is over, you stand up, Luke's hand finally disconnecting from your body. Before you can leave the room, however, you are stopped by General Madine.
"Y/N, right? I heard about your remarkable deeds on your last mission", he says with an encouraging nod. "And I would like to have you as the leader on this mission."
"I-It would be my honor, General", you immediately state, not quite knowing what is happening. Luke, still standing next to you, puts his arm around you as soon as the general leaves and gives your shoulder a tight squeeze before placing a kiss on the side of your head and ruffling your hair playfully.
"I knew you had it in you! Would you look at that, huh? A leader", Luke beams at you and your heartbeat accelerates. "I feel honored to even breathe the same air as you."
Shoving him to the side, you laugh with him, your heart somehow feeling full. Fixing your hair that he so ungracefully disheveled, you leave the room and walk towards the hangar, closely next to each other.
You stop at his X-Wing and you sit on one of the boxes that are stacked there while Luke watches you closely. Although there is commotion around you, other members of the Alliance walking around, going after their day, it feels like it is just the two of you the moment your eyes meet.
It feels the exact same way as when you first met, and yet this time it seems even more intense. The connection you felt back then stronger than ever.
Luke does not take his eyes off you, not even when he gets closer and suddenly is standing so close in front of you that you could rest your chin on his head, being taller than him as you sit on the boxes. With his right hand, Luke brushes a strand of hair out of your face, lightly touching your cheek when tugging it behind your ear before pulling away with a smile, leaving your personal bubble.
"Luke, what is going on?!", you jump up in fury all of a sudden, catching Luke - and also yourself - off guard. "You are driving me crazy! Why are you behaving like this?"
"Like what?", he asks in surprise, not being able to place your reaction.
"You always smile at me like that! And you- You do all these little things and gestures like casually touching me or hugging me and-"
"I'm sorry, I did not mean to make you uncomfortable.. That was not-"
"Just tell me why! Why are you behaving like this so I can understand why I feel the way I feel when you do it", you confess, your heartbeat drumming in your ears as you look in his eyes, trying to find your answer there.
There must be a good reason for all of this.
"Isn't it obvious? I like you, Y/N. A lot, actually", Luke replies, averting his gaze for the first time as he puts a hand on his neck, almost shy. "But I did not change my behaviour. I have always been like this with you, it just seems like you are only now noticing it. Every small gesture, every touch was only ever reserved for you. Because you are the only one for me and have been for a long time."

Regulating your breathing, you roll your shoulders back, sighing softly as you try to settle into a comfortable position that makes your early meditating session easier. The first rays of the sun, that peek out over the forests and mountains of Yavin 4, tickle your face and you feel a content smile form on your lips. The quiet sounds of whisper birds reach you from afar and you bathe in the otherwise silent atmosphere of this early morning.
At first, you didn't like the idea of having to wake up early while everyone else was still roaming through their dreams, to start your daily training as a Padawan. But Luke, your master, made sure that, after a few times, you actually enjoy these sessions. The harmony, the peace that you feel all around you, it fulfills you and makes you feel at ease, ready to start the day.
It is nice to just sit here, meditating in a cross-legged position and listening to what this beautiful planet has to offer. But not only that, you also thoroughly enjoy the company of Luke. It is only in these early hours of the day that you have him all to yourself and you feel like your bond has grown even stronger since the first time you met. Luke was eager to train you, to take you as his first Padawan, even though he was technically not a master either. But you have grown together over these past few months and you are sure the meditating sessions contributed to that greatly.
"How are you feeling today, Y/N?", Luke asks you, his voice coming out as very calm and peaceful as he is meditating right next to you, face in direction of the sun.
"Good. Better than yesterday", you answer, not opening your eyes as Luke taught you. 'You don't need to see someone to talk to them. You can feel their emotions, if you only concentrate enough' is what he told you and you have, in fact, mastered this way of communicating with him. To the extent that you can now sense when something is bothering him, when he is happy, or when he is not feeling well from a great distance, him not even being in the same room as you.
"I'm glad to hear that", he replies, sighing as he is shifting in his position and you can feel that he is telling the truth. Yesterday wasn't a good day for you and Luke obviously noticed. You didn't tell him the reason for your behaviour yesterday, when in one moment you were doing fine and in the next, you were the reason that your mission almost failed. It didn't, Luke made sure of it, but the look he gave you said everything. He knew that something was going on that you weren't telling him and his subtle question just now shows you that even though he doesn't want to push you, he would certainly like you to open up to him.
After all, he only wants the best for you in all ways possible.
And you know that. Still, you don't feel comfortable with telling him because it makes you feel weak. You know it is a stupid way of thinking, but you just can't help it.
Sighing, you shake your head and open your eyes, just to see how Luke was about to place his hand on your knee, but pulls back as he senses that you have left your meditation. Immediately, he opens his eyes as well and your eyes meet.
His eyes scream for you to tell him what's going on and, in that moment, seeing the worry in his face, you feel like you can tell him. You can tell him everything and it will be fine. Contemplating how to start, you break eye contact and stare at your hands in your lap.
Just as you made up your mind and are about to tell him, a loud noise erupts from somewhere around you. You can't tell what it was - could have been a blaster, an X-Wing starting, or even an unknown creature in the forests of Yavin 4. But whatever it was, it frightened you. No, it didn't just frighten you, it terrified you and, in a matter of seconds, you are on the edge of a panic attack.
Moving your head in all directions in search of the source of the noise, your heartbeat increases a thousandfold, your hands tremble and your ears are filled with only a dull noise. You feel like you are falling, deeper and deeper, until suddenly, you feel a hand on yours and, in all this mess, find Luke.
"Everything is fine. You are fine", he reassures you, his thumb running over the back of your hand to make sure that you know he is there, with you. "Look at me, Y/N."
Your inner demons tell you to not look at him, to run away from all your fears and to get a grip of your emotions, but his words sound calm, not judging you in any way, only trying to get you to him. So when you actually look at him, you feel the ground beneath you again, the air rustling through the nearby trees, and the whole atmosphere around you slowly starts to feel peaceful again.
"It's perfectly okay to be afraid, Y/N. You don't need to feel ashamed. I have noticed that you are scared of loud noises before, but you don't need to be. Not anymore, anyway. Whatever happened that made you fear loud noises, I'm here, by your side, and I will always protect you, even if it's the last thing I do", Luke comforts you, squeezing your hand a bit more to assure you that he means every single word. "Don't let this fear determine who you are. You don't have to overcome it today. You don't have to overcome it tomorrow. But we can work on it a little more every day."
Tears are running down your cheeks now, his words making you feel good again after such a long time of keeping your fear a secret. You feel safe with him, you feel understood. You nod, wanting to finally overcome your fear and once you do, Luke takes you into his arms, pulling you into a soft hug that you so desperately needed.
"I will be here, every step of the journey", he softly whispers into your ear and you can't help but smile.
After this day, Luke made sure to keep all the loud noises away from you, reproaching the pilots if they are too loud again and leaving R2 with you so that, whenever he can't be around, R2 will be. Only in your training sessions does he allow loud noises, where he can regulate and control them. And it does not take long until you feel a change, not panicking every time you hear a sudden loud noise.
And indeed, Luke does not leave your side until you have overcome your fear completely.
