When Kyp wakes up to find Jaina in bed next to him, her head on his chest, he reaches out to her in the Force, just to check if this is a dream or if she is really with him.

He fells the unique energy of Jaina Solo next to him and can’t refrain himself from smiling, he doesn’t even want to. He wants to scream off the top of a mountain how happy he is about having the woman he loves next to him. He starts to remember how she stormed into his room yesterday, eyes reddened from crying. Before kissing him, she had told him she had had a big fight with Jag and even though Kyp knew that she was just using him to get over Jag, he didn’t mind. He had been longing to kiss Jaina for way too long.

She opens her eyes and smiles at him happily. "Hey there."

"Hey yourself." He starts stroking her brown hair that is messy from sleeping.

"What time is it?"

Kyp takes a look at his chrono. "About eight o’clock."

"I should be going. I don’t think the reactions will be all too positive if it is found out that I have spent the night here, especially because I’m with Jag."

"Hey, you know, you don’t have to stay with him."

"Hey, you know," she repeated in the same tone. "I should at least talk to him about all of this. It was pretty impulsive to just come here."

"Yeah, probably. It’s not something pragmatic Jaina Solo would do. So, what will you tell Jag when he asks you where you spent the night?"

"I don’t know yet, maybe I’ll tell him the truth."

"To ensure he comes after me?"

"No, if I wanted him to do that, I’d stay here longer, hope he comes after me. That would be a good way to get rid of you," she laughs.

"I could deflect whatever he shoots at me with my lightsaber. It’s right next to the bed."

"Is this your way of offering me to stay longer?"

Kyp didn’t answer, kissing her instead.
