Seeking a partner to be stranded with 2

CH.1: Bunkmates

Hera had put the ship on autopilot as they headed to their next destination. It had been a few months since Tatooine and life on the Ghost had changed. For starters she and Sabine shared rooms now, yeah it took some getting used to from the crew but they adjusted. Second off they were nowhere near stopping the Empire as it continued to close in on them. It was continuing to be a waste of fuel on their end and what jobs they could do was always either a rushed job…or a botched job in which case they didn't get paid and had to hitch a ride on a bigger ship, Imperial ships made nice when the time came.

Ezra and Kanan were deep in Jedi training mode from meditation to practicing their blocking outside when they found a habitable and hospitable planet. The last few hadn't been so friendly but Kanan wanted Ezra to be on his toes…which he wasn't as he was attacked by the planet natives, most friendly creatures who just wanted to be played with…or doing the playing and chewing on any body part available.

Hera kept herself busy while plotting courses that took them away from Imperial scounts…when she wasn't with her partner. Today was no exception as she was kissing her partner as she lay under her; the covers lay over them keeping their undergarments out of view should someone walk in on them, mostly Zeb.

"I hear it is going to be your birthday tomorrow…want anything?" Hera pulls at her lower lip and gazes down into her eyes.

"I'm sure you can get me many things…why do you ask?" Sabine turned them around so she was on top and her lips went down her body.

"We've been together for about two months…is it so wrong to want to get you something special?" Hera heaves a sigh as she finds herself hitting that wall of hers again.

"Look I don't want everyone to make a deal out of it ok…it is just a birthday." Sabine halts somewhere at her stomach and Hera figures that is the end of that.

"I'm sorry ok…I'll drop it if you want." Hera was about to get out of bed but Sabine stops her, and she looks up at the teen who seems to look uncertain.

"Look…some people celebrate a year older and that is great…with me birthdays have never been that great. I do love you for attempting to bring some cheer into the celebration, I do, and don't take this the wrong way but…I'm not a present type of gal…I got you and that is all I need."

"Alright…I won't buy you anything. How about we throw a private party…just you and I?" Hera pulls her on top of her and kisses her lips. Moving her hands down her body she enjoys the way the teen squirms as she tries to turn things around.

"Hera…we got company!" Kanan's voice called out and the fun was over. Throwing the covers off she gets dressed with Sabine slowly getting dressed.

"You are checking me out aren't you?" Hera notes as she looks over her shoulder seeing Sabine sliding her legs into her pants.

"Huh…no I'm not I was just…shut up." She says this playfully as she looks away and gets her armor on.

"C'mon and hurry up…sounds like we got some heavy duty trouble coming our way." Hera hurried to the cockpit and saw Kanan slide into the next seat. "What do we got?"

"A star destroyer is heading our way…I bet anything Agent Kallus is onboard." Hera had no doubt he was.

"He is getting closer each time…this is what his seventh time homing in our position?" Hera pulled the Ghost into a dive as the first forward laser pierced through their ghostly trail.

"I'll go back to handle the turrets…Ezra your with me." Kanan had passed by Ezra and Hera noticed how little sleep he had gotten, his hands rubbing at his eyes before following Kanan.

"What is with all the rukus…getting to the point where I can't get my beauty sleep." Zeb walked into the room and collapsed into one of the seats.

"Sorry about that I will try and put a snooze on being chased next time. Any word on your contact with the fuel?" Hera had allowed Zeb a transmission to a viable source for some much needed fuel a month back…so far they had heard nothing.

"Yeah…however you aren't going to like it. Seems he crossed Jabba the Hutt and well…the fuel ended up on a planet called Hoth. He can't get back to the fuel and chances are that amount of fuel will be picked up pretty soon by anyone in desperate need."

Hera sighed and pulled the ship into a twist as the lasers went by harmlessly. "Hoth huh…that planet is pretty far out there. Right now Hoth would pull us away from our current mission…thanks though for the effort Zeb."

"Yeah well I figured since I'm stuck with you lot I'd put my two cents in." Zeb grinned cheekily and folded his arms. "So…heard you and Sabine arguing-."

"W-We are not arguing…we just…have some disagreements about things is all. Besides…why are you hanging around our quarters anyway?" Hera tries to wipe the look off her face that says she is embarrassed but also flustered.

"Well you ladies tend to be quite loud and it can get pretty quiet around here when there is no fighting to be done. Sabine is quite the firecracker…is she not?" Zeb laughs and Hera returns her attention to keeping them alive to respond to that.

Sabine and her had been quite intimate of late…but…he was right about them arguing as well. That argument about her birthday was not the only one they had in two months. She loved Sabine, but, sometimes she forgot how crowded this ship was.

"Hey you two…hope you aren't talking about me." Sabine swings into the cockpit and drops into the seat next to Hera.

"Noope…just shooting the breeze is all. I should probably go check on Chopper…he gets a tad cranky when he is by himself." Zeb rises and gives Hera look before leaving.

"Sabine…do we argue a lot?" Hera watched as a Tie exploded as one of Kanan's shots pierced through the eyeball.

"What…us fight…ridiculous…why?" Sabine leans forward and Hera can see the truth in her golden eyes.

"I don't want us fighting…but…lately it seems that is all we do. I'd hate to think that is what our relationship has come to-." Hera does her best to keep her focus on evasion but Sabine makes it hard holding her hand.

"Babe…look…I know we can get under each other's skin, but, everyone goes through this in a relationship. Maybe we need sometime alone… get away from all this." Hera wasn't against the idea but when was the question.

Suddenly the ship is pulled by a tractor beam and the footsteps of Kanan and Ezra pull Hera out of her seat. "Could you get a shot off at the tractor?"

"They got us surrounded by so many Ties that we couldn't get to it. We can try and hide but…knowing the person behind this…it is very unlikely we can hide for long." Kanan bowed his head and suddenly Sabine brightens up.

"Hold that…maybe there is a way we can get out of this. I heard Zeb mention dropped fuel on the planet Hoth…and it takes us away from our current mission. Hera and I can take the Phantom and break the tractor and head to Hoth. You can take the Ghost and finish the mission then pick us up when you are done."

"I don't know…last time we were split up it almost led to Hera being fed to the Sarlacc. I also remember you dealing with a Rancor. No I think it is best if we stick to the plan-."

"What is that you say Kanan…plans change? Look we'll be alright…give us three days tops. Oh and if the Ghost has any scratches…it comes out of everyone's salary." Hera pats Kanan's shoulder then follows Sabine to their room.

"Looks like we'll be getting that time alone after all. How warm do you think Hoth is?" Sabine rummages through her things pulling out her swimsuit.

"You do know Hoth is an ice planet right?" Hera looks away while she packs some warm and toasty clothing.

"Oh yeah…forgot…darn and I was so looking for to bathing in the sun with you. Guess it is cuddling by the fire then." Sabine bounced back and Hera laughed.

Once they were all packed they headed to the Phantom and dropped out. Hera armed the forward lasers and took out the tractor beam freeing the Ghost. The Ties were quick to notice them and screamed after the ship. However Hera dodged them as she made the jump and blasted away…next stop Hoth.
