The next afternoon, Han went to the Imperial base on Naboo. Leia had told him to meet her outside of the hall of prisoner cells. He reached the hall and entered it without any objection from the officer and two Stormtroopers that were standing at the entrance. They knew that he was Leia's assisstant.
She wasn't there yet, which was unusual. He walked to the end of the hall and waited. After a few seconds, someone suddenly grabbed his wrist.
"Hey..." he said. It was Leia. "Where did you come from?"
"I'm concealing my presence," she said. "You're invisible right now, too, because I'm touching you."
"No one can see us?"
"Other Force-users can, but there aren't any here," Leia answered. "Don't let go of me. I want to talk to you privately."
"Alright," Han said. Then he added, "My Lady."
She was very nervous, and was trying not to show it. She was glad that her father and Luke weren't here. If they saw how shy she was now, she would be embarassed.
"I want to tell you something," she said. "Remember the last smuggler that I told you to watch - the last two, actually?"
"Yes."
"They really weren't a concern to me at all. I only told you to watch them because I wanted an excuse to talk to you."
"So you want me to stop watching them?"
"Yes." Leia paused. "I'm...interested in you...do you know what I'm saying?"
For a moment, Han liked seeing that she was nervous. Even though she was a Sith, she was acting like any other girl who was trying to talk to a man that she liked.
"Are you gonna make me date you or something?" he asked, not worrying about sounding rude.
"No," she said. She let go of his wrist, then held onto his hand. "I am giving you a choice. If you don't like me, I will not be angry, and Luke and my father will not come after you."
"What will they do if we are together?" Han asked. "I don't think they would approve of you being with me."
"I talked to my parents about it last night," Leia replied. "You still aren't the first person that my father would want me to marry, but he does like the fact that you are an Imperial spy. I won't have to spend time trying to make someone else accept me and join the Empire."
Han leaned down a little and kissed her forehead. She smiled and hugged him.
- The End -
Sorry for the short, crappy ending. I just didn't want to leave this story unfinished. Thanks for all of the reviews.
