Happy Father's Day!!!!
Kanan's pov
"Make sure you repair the shields, fix the engines, sort out the supplies in the cockpit and contact Commander Sato to update him on the income status." Hera tells me.
I stare at her with my mouth opened. "You want me to get this done today?"
"Yes love, we need it done by today." Hera says.
"I need at least one person to help me." I say.
"Ezra doesn't fully know how to repair anything, so you could ask him to contact Sato if you want." She says.
"But what about-"
"Sabine, Zeb, Chopper and I will be going on a supply run." She says cutting me off.
"Another supply run? Don't you think the people who read this chapter will get bored of that?" I ask her.
"Stop arguing. We'll be back in a few hours." Hera says and goes into the phantom.
I sigh. I better start now then.
"Hey Kanan."
I turn around to see Ezra looking more excited than usual.
"When did you get here? You know what, I don't have the time to ask that question. I need to get to work." I say and was about to walk away till Ezra stops me.
"Wait Kanan, do you know what today is?" He asks me.
"I think it's Thursday, why?" I ask.
He looks a little disappointed. "You don't know what today is?"
Suddenly my comm goes off.
"Make sure you get it done." Hera says through my com.
"Sorry Ezra, I need to get to work." I say and walk away from him.
I could tell he felt upset about something. I'll have to talk to him later.
Time Skip
It took 3 hours. But I finally finished. The hardest one out of all of them, was fixing the engines. I don't know the ship as well as Hera so I got confused with a few things.
Throughout those hours, I haven't seen Ezra once. It made feel bad about before. I still don't know what today is. Is it the day his parents got taken away? No, that's on Empire's day. That's also Ezra's birthday.
So what could today be?
While in the common room resting, Ezra steps in with a camera in his hands. But when he sees me, he tries to leave.
"Wait Ezra." I say and quickly grab his arm. "We need to talk......when did you get a camera?"
He quickly hides it behind him. "Uh not that long ago."
"You seemed pretty upset before. Does it have to do with what today is?" I ask him.
"Well...." Ezra starts. "It's just......today......I need to show you something."
I look at him confused. But I nod and follow him out of the common room and off the ghost. We walk through the alley for a few minutes till we reach Ezra's tower.
Before we enter, Ezra stops in front of the door looking a little nervous.
"Are you ready?" He asks me.
"For what exactly?" I ask.
He ignores my question and opens the door. But when I see what's inside, my eyes widen.
The inside of his tower had "Happy Father's Day" painted on the wall and photos of Ezra and I around it.
I walked inside and saw in amazement all the different photos of us. One was when Ezra and I had our first light saber duel practice. That was a special time for Ezra because he always wanted to get to that rank in our training. Another photo was with me in a deep meditation while Ezra was playing on his tablet smiling.
I thought he was meditating too!!! I look at him and he just shrugs with a smile. I shake it off for now and continue looking at the photos.
There were two photos. One had me and Ezra cheering with excitement after finding out Miss Columbia won Miss Universe. The other had me and Ezra on the couch upset after finding out she didn't win.
That was definitely one of the most dramatic moments of my life.
"Happy Father's Day." Ezra says.
I was speechless. I couldn't believe Ezra did this. I didn't know he was planning this.
"How did you take these pictures?" I ask him.
"I had Sabine help me. Except for the one with me not meditating." He says with a smirk.
"Yeah I'll make sure you are meditating next time." I say. "I'm just surprised you did this."
"Well I know you aren't my real dad. But you are my master and the closest person in my life." Ezra says.
Before I could respond to that, Ezra's eyes widen. "I forgot!!! I have one more thing."
He then pulls something out from under a torn up blanket. It's an envelope.
"Here, I hope you like it." He says and hands it to me.
I take it and rip it open. Inside is a folded up paper. I hesitantly unfold it and what I see makes me gasp.
"Do you like it Kanan?" Ezra asks.
It's a drawing of my master. It almost brought me to tears of how realistic it looks. The way she is drawn looks like a professional did this. Looking at this drawing brings back all the good memories of her. Usually when I think of my master, that one bad memory of her would always come up. But right now, all I feel is.......happiness. I truly didn't know what to say.
"Um Kanan, you alright?"
I look at Ezra seeing his concerned face. I could tell he felt afraid I would get upset about this drawing of my master. Instead I pull him into an embrace that turns his concern and worries into surprised and shocked.
"Thank you Ezra." I say.
He soon wraps his arms around me. "You're welcome Kanan. That drawing took me a whole month to do. Hope it looks like her."
I only chuckle. "It looks exactly like her."
We stay in our hug for a few minutes quiet, till I break the silence.
"This is the best gift ever. No one will ever give me something else that's better." I mumble and tighten my grip on Ezra.
"I told Sabine I could draw as good as her." He says while laughing.
I laugh too, even though the drawing isn't what I meant. Having him as my padawan and or son in the future, is the best thing that's ever happened to me. I guess I never realized how special Ezra is to me until today when he showed me how much he cares to do something like this for me.
But I don't want to tell Ezra this yet. He might not feel the same way for me and I completely get it. I'm not his real dad.
"Sorry I didn't know about today. I normally don't celebrate this day. I didn't mean to get you upset before." I tell him.
"It's fine. I was just nervous you wouldn't want to celebrate Father's Day." Ezra says. "I was actually this close to deleting the other pictures on my camera of us before because of it."
"There are more?" I ask a little surprised.
He nods and pulls out his camera. "These are my favorites but I didn't want to hang them up because you would probably rip them."
"What's that suppose to mean?"
When he shows me the pictures, my face turns red with embarrassment. I knew he took a video of me in the shower singing, but I didn't know he took pictures.
"Do you remember these?" Ezra asks me with a smirk.
"Oh yeah I remember. I also remember you putting it online and 3M people saw it." I say in a mad tone.
"Actually it's close to 5M now." Ezra says. "I get notifications when it goes up."
I glare at him. "You told me you took the video down."
"I was going to, but turns out you get credits from how many views you get on a video. That's how we were able to pay off that repair for our shields." He says.
"Oh, now it doesn't sound so bad anymore." I say.
"Yeah, we should head back to the ghost to film another video of you to put online." Ezra says.
"Let me think of that.........no." I say and start walking out of his tower.
Ezra followed me. "Fine, we won't film you in the shower. But can I film you while you're sleeping?"
"Why while I'm sleeping?"
"You say a lot of weird stuff in your sleep." Ezra tells me. "Like, the ducks need a break, love that new dress Hera, give me my lightsaber, don't hurt him...."
I cringe when he said the last one. That was when I had that nightmare of Vader killing Ezra. I couldn't save him. I remember that nightmare vividly.
"No I don't say those things."
"Yes you do. But the one you said about Hera's dress confused me." He says.
"Why? It was a dream." I say.
"Well, Hera told me she got a new dress for a date and told me not to tell anyone else about it. So I didn't and when she came back and we were all sleeping, you said you love her new dress in your dreams.......and she only told me about the dress so how did-"
"Uhhhhhh vision. Why are we even talking about this? This isn't a one shot about me and Hera. It's about you and me so let's get back to the ghost." I say very quickly.
"Excuses......" Ezra mumbles with a smirk.
