Ahsoka grumble rubbing her eyes with the heals of her hands. She couldn't sleep with her moving child and the cold air filling the room.She shivered again it was freezing in the small bed room. She rolled over to see rex back facing away from her. She thought about how to re roll over rex so she could cuddle him. Just then her though we're interrupted by a kick. She smiled down at her stomach knowing the little life in her womb was alright. Just then rex rolled back over in his sleep his salt and pepper beard showing in the dark room. Ahsoka smile moving to cuddle his body. When ahsoka skin touch rex warmth he woke up. He spoke his voice showing how he was at the edge of falling back asleep. Ahsoka let out a groan as she realizes the blanket she slept with was missing.
"Soka why are you freezing cold I thought you fell asleep with a thick blanket on"
She spoke as she felt another kick from the baby. She sat up in their bed her lekkus hitting her back and chest. Her eyes looking around trying to figure out were her blanket went.
"I did I don't know we're it went. So I'll be right back I'm gonna turn on a light to see where it went"
Rex sat up along with her and tiredly kissed her lips. Then he laid back down on the bed. She smiled knowing he had a long day yesterday. As ahsoka realize she probably threw that blanket in the washer. She spoke to her rounded stomach knowing that she finished a load of laundry. So she could probably find a blanket in there.
"Well little one why don't we look for another blanket because I really don't know we're the other one went"
The kick of approval should her that her little boy or girl didn't mind. Their mama looking for a blanket as she entered the laundry room. As she opened the dryer she saw rex's 501st blue sweeter that was so soft ahsoka would always cuddle him when he wore it. When rex first brought it she thought it was made out of clouds. She grabbed the sweater and took of everything else she was wearing and put on the sweater. She looked at her self in the mirror and smiled. She softly spoke to herself.
"He wouldn't mind if I just wear this for today. Yeah he'll understand"
As she walked thought the cold hallways of their house on Nara. She couldn't wait to finally have their little one here in her and rex arms. As she thought about the future she could hear the rain fall. She didn't mind the rain but she knew rex hated it because he kinda grew up on Kamino. When she made it back to their bedroom. Rex was sitting up in bed and looked at her confused for a minute before seeing her in his sweater. He spoke as ahsoka got back into the bed and she grabbed his tattooed wrist and placed it on her belly.
"Cyar'ika I just thought you were gonna find the blanket not change. Is that my sweater"
She smiled as he kissed her forehead marking his beard tickling her face. She spoke as she felt another movement of the baby and by rex face he felt it to on his hand.
"I must've put in the wash and you saw me covered up in something else. And yes this is your sweater I hoped you wouldn't mind me wearing it just for the day because it freezing and raining."
Rex chuckled and kissed her lips and pulled back placing their forehead together. He spoke as ahsoka grabbed the thin blanket that was at the end of their bed.
"It's fine mesh'la I just didn't realize that you look adorable in my clothes"
Ahsoka smiled at him as he slowly laid her back on the bed as their little one kept moving around in her womb. She spoke as rex moved to cuddle her close. The warmth of his body keeping her warm though and the cold air flowing though the room.
"Well I think this hides my belly pretty well for being 6 months pregnant with a kid that your size.You're body like a space heater rexie"
Rex let out a chuckle and spoke as ahsoka nuzzled closer to him. Ahsoka finger slowly tracing on of rex tattoos as her hummed at the soft touch of her finger tip.
"Well mesh'la the long necks created me so I could handle any environment especially the cold. So yeah my body becomes a heater you've touched my skin millions of times"
Ahsoka let out a giggle and smiled up at him before kissing his neck. She spoke as she tried to hide a yawn from him and he smiled.
"I have but I've never touched your skin shirtless before because after sex I usually fall asleep and your skin is freezing then"
Rex seeing The tiredness on her face smiled and kissed her lips and then patted her belly. He spoke as he moved the blanket to be more comfortable around ahsoka.
"I know mesh'la but why don't we get back to bed you need your sleep and the baby needs it much more. I love you mesh'la"
Ahsoka smile slowly shutting her eyes and she spoke as she felt rex strong arms wrap around her body. The force pressings filling up her heart with happiness and pride about the future they were building.
"I love you too rexie"
The two souls in the galaxy filled with fear of the future and regrets of the past. Where enjoy their time now where they didn't need to worry about someone hurting them again. Captain Rex and Ahsoka Tano had each other always. Even if they were far away they never lost their hope or love.
