Chapter Ten

Ezra's P.O.V.

I look up, almost dropping the cylinder, not knowing what to do.

"Um, This is totally not what it looks like." I say, trying to look innocent.

Kanan and Hera stand at the door, with Sabine behind them.

"Steady," Kanan says, cautiously walking over.

I hold out the cylinder, and he jumps back.

"Um..I don't know how to turn it off." I say sheepishly.

Kanan instructs me on how to do so
(I forgot) and then takes it from me.

"How did you even get in here? The doors locked." Hera asks.

I smile shyly, pointing upwards.
"Vents."

Kanan pinches the bridge of his nose saying, "Get out kid."

I scurry out, dragging Sabine with me.

When we're in the nose gun, I turn to her.

"You told on me?!" I exclaim.

"Really, Ezra? How old are you?" She asks.

"Sixteen, why?" I ask, confused.

She groans.

"Nevermind, what was you even doing in there?" She asks.

I shrug.

"I got curios.."

She sits in the nose guns seat.

"Haven't you ever heard the saying 'curiosity killed the loth rat?'" She asks.

I stare at her, incredulously.

"There is no such saying."

She giggles, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear and we both look out at the stars.

"You're right. I made it up."

I think I'm starting to like this girl.

"What?" She asks, staring at me suddenly.

I look back at her.

"What?" I ask back.

"Nothing," she says, looking back out at the stars, "I just thought you said something."

"No."

"Oh."

"Yep."

"Totally." She rolls her eyes.

"Yeah" I say, breathily.

Kill me now.

"Guys meeting in the common room." Hera's voice rings trough the coms and me and Sabine take a breath of relief, unknown to the other of course.

•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.

We both made it to the common room, where the others already were.

The lights where dim and a hologram of an image was up.

"What's going on guys?" Sabine asks.

Hera looks up, before looking back down at the hologram.

"Sorry, you two, just briefing the rest on the mission. You guys can go back to whatever you were doing before." She says.

I huff, turning around.

"Oh, and Ezra?" I stop.

"While you're on the Ghost, I have a set of chores you need to do" Hera says, making Sabine snicker until she says, "Sabine will help." 

•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.•.

The crew except for me and Sabine is gone.

Hera and Chop went on the supply run, and Kanan and Zeb went to save the Wookiees.

As of right now, I am finishing up my final chore with Sabine and Hera should be back soon.

The Ghost is almost fully mopped.

Suddenly, I slip and since Sabine is the only closest thing next to me, I bring her down with me.

"Ezra!" She exclaims, tipping over the mop bucket which causes dirty water to soak us and the floor. 

"Sabine!" I scramble to get up, which causes me to knock my mop bucket over.

We both fall, and I twist us so that I take the fall.

She sits on my lap, and I know later today my back is going to be flaring up like crazy but all I can focus on is her warm, hazel eyes. 

She giggles, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear- a habit I learned she does- when she's nervous.

I reach up and touch her cheek, and suddenly-

"Sabine, Ezra?"

The voice of Hera interrupted our moment and caused Sabine to scramble off of me.

"Careful," I warn, "it's wet."

She looks up, blushing and stuttering.

"I-"

"Sabine? Ezra? What did you guys do in here?"

I look up at Hera and grin.

"We fell."
