Taking one last look in the mirror, you fixed your hair and checked your Makeup. After confirming nothing was messed up, you adjusted your cost and picked up your comm. Your boyfriend Rex, was picking you up for date any second now. There was a carnival that traveled around the galaxy, jumping from one planet to the other and it just so happened to be on Coruscant, during Rex’s leave. And of course, being the lovely partner you are, you harassed Rex until he agreed to going with you.
The loud ring of your doorbell knocked you out of your thoughts and you turned to he door, swinging your bag onto your shoulder while reaching for the panel beside it. With a quick click of a button, the door whooshed open, revealing a blonde captain, with a small smile on his face.
With a grin, you fling your arms around your beloved soldier and he returns the gesture immediately.
“Are you ready?” He asks, pulling away before leaving a soft kiss on your forehead. With a beaming smile, you nod your head and clutch his hand, pulling him down the steps of your apartment doorstep.
“Someone’s excited” Rex notes, chuckling as you continue to tug on his arm.
“I haven’t been to one of these in ages!” You exclaim excitedly, clutching his arm as you Trottes along.
It was still noon and a bit sunny but you know it would get dark soon; and colder. But you didn’t let that stop you, skipping along beside the amused Rex, you continued on your trek to the carnival, bouncing on your toes the whole way there.
When the bright lights came into sight, you let out a squeal of delight and picked up your pace, dragging along a poor Rex.
Rex was absolutely amazed, he never experienced a carnival and you were so excited to share it with him. You giggled as his jaw dropped, his mouth forming an ‘o’ as he looked from stall to stall.
“Let’s go do some games!” You decide, skipping ahead to what looked like ‘whack a Gundark. Rex trailed along after you, taking in the game as you both approached.
“What is this?” Rex asks as you both come to a stop.
“It’s ‘whack a Gundark!’ You have to use the hammer to smack each Gundark as fast as you can when they pop up. Then, if you get enough points, you win a prize” you finish explaining and point at the prizes lining the wall; specifically the tooka plush.
“Right…” Rex nods slowly, processing what you just told him.
“Do you wanna play?” You ask, turning to face your blonde captain.
Rex takes one look at your excited face and the nods.
“Sure”
You let out a small happy noise and then pass a ticket to the person behind the stall. The worker hands you the inflatable hammer and you look it over before holding it out to Rex.
“What are you doing?” He asks, eyebrows furrowed.
“Handing it to you so you can play!” You grin, giving the hammer a little shake.
Rex hesitantly reaches out and takes ahold of the hammer. “Are you sure you don’t wanna play?”
You nod enthusiastically, “I’ve played this game before. Plus, you have a better chance at winning me a prize.”
Rex let’s out a light chuckle at the last part, “alright cyare, I’ll try win you a prize”
You grin even brighter and lean over his shoulder, watching as the lights switched on and the familiar tune starts playing. Then the game starts.
The first Gundark pops out and in the blink of an eye, Rex smacked it away. This continues throughout the whole game until the points counter dings loudly, signalling he won.
Rex turns to the worker and holds the hammer out, trying to give it back. The worker however, stands there dumbfounded, shocked at how he won. Rex raises an eyebrow, causing the worker to snap out of his trance and take the hammer back, grumbling under his breath.
“alright folks, it seems you’ve won a prize. Pick any” the worker turns back to you both.
Rex turns to you and gestures to the wall of huge, colourful plushies. You grin and point to the tooka; eyes sparkling as you watched the worker take it down and hand it to Rex.
Rex nods a thanks and turns to you as you start walking away.
“Here mesh’la” he softly pushes the plush into your hands and you squeeze it in joy.
“Thank you, thank you, thank you!” You squeal, clutching onto his arm like it’s your lifeline.
Rex laughs; a soft sound you could listen to forever, and places a kiss to your temple.
“So, where to next cyare?”
After dragging Rex form every stall to ride, you both finally settled down on a bench with fried Nuna legs.
“So~ was this fun?” You ask, bumping your shoulder with his.
Rex reaches out and wipes a bit of food off the side of your mouth; his touch featherlight, before nodding his head.
“It was amazing, especially since you were here”
At that, you blush and hang your head down, trying to hide your bright red face. But a pair of fingers touched the bottom of your chin, lifting it to face your lover.
“Thank you mesh’la for everything”
And with that, he kissed you. It was a soft, meaningful kiss. His desire evident but his gentleness overpowering it.
And as you were caught up in the captain, the sky lit up with the bright lights of fireworks; ending your night on the perfect note.
