Chapter Text
“Remember when we first met?”
“Rather hard to forget.”
“Imagine if you’d named me something other than Finn.”
Poe rubbed his chin in mock thought. “Hmmm,” he considered, “I suppose I could’ve gone with Fred. But you don’t look like a Fred, I think you’re more of a Ferdinand.”
“Yeah?”
“Or maybe…F… Far…? Fel..? Huh,” Poe hummed. “F names are hard. You’re lucky Finn was the name that came to mind. Could have been a lot worse.” Poe ran his hands up Finn’s sides, locking them behind the other man’s neck lovingly. “You could have been a Fabio.”
Finn loomed closer, his chest meeting the warmth of Poe’s as they touched. His lips brushed against Poe’s nose as he spoke, “Poe Dameron,” he murmured, “you can call me anything you want…”
Poe’s face broke into a grin, and he leaned forward-
Finn pulled back from Poe’s, suddenly serious. Confused, Poe started to frown, but then he caught sight of the mischievous twinkle in Finns eyes. The mock serious look on Finn’s face faded and was replace with a small smirk as he added, “…but only if I get to choose a name for you too.”
Poe’s head fell back onto the bed, and he blew a few black curls from off his forehead as he squinted at Finn suspiciously. “That’s a dangerous request… recruit.”
Finn arched a brow. “I think it’s only fair, commander. How many people get to name their boyfriends?”
Poe rolled his eyes. “You weren’t my boyfriend at the time. Doesn’t count.”
“…Hmmm, but how can I be certain you weren’t already scheming of ways to get me? FN- 2187 was hot stuff, you know.”
Poe gave Finn an unimpressed look, but the scathing gaze was tempered by the soft smile curling on his lips.
“In fact, Jessika told me something the other day that makes me think you had a thing for me right away,” Finn goads.
“Well you shouldn’t listen to Jessika.”
“Something about a trooper in shining armor…”
Poe groaned.
“…and a Dameron in distress…”
