The sound of water crashing against dishes echoed in the small, but comfortable apartment. The pair that lived here could probably afford better, but with constantly being away, there was no reason to have a large dwelling. At the table near the kitchen a plate was left untouched, a hearty bantha steak began to cool as the potatoes slumped slightly to one side after sitting there for some time, and the vegetables lost their brilliant color as they became room temperature. Across the way sat a blonde girl her chin resting against her hands as she stared at the plate. She would box this up like the other, but leave it this time waiting for the woman.
Spencer felt her close.
Throughout Ashin’s absence she worried, but not too much. The woman had gotten better at keeping her wife in the loop most of the time. Spencer continued about her day, studying and reading the letter she had received. Though she longed to have Ashin back at least on the same planet with her. Looking back at the plate, she stood and began to wrap it up. Shoving it back into the oven to keep warm, hopefully tonight would be the night she had been waiting for and hopefully Ashin would be hungry. After cleaning up a bit more, the girl stood in her long silken night gown, her hair cascading over her shoulders. A smile crept across her face as she felt her wedding ring with her fingers.
A soft sigh followed by a gentle and amused chuckle Spencer spoke quietly, “Constantly waiting, you probably know I’d wait forever. I’m such a silly girl, hopelessly devoted.” Shrugging, Spencer knew she wouldn't have it any other way.
