Leia was curled up on the couch, legs tucked absently underneath her as she half-heartedly read a book under the light of an orb of magic floating by her head. Unable to sleep once again, she'd ventured out of the bedroom she shared with her husband in order to not disturb him.

Twenty years, and she should have known her absence would be just as notably as her restlessness. She turned her face up to watch Han as he stumped into the room, smiling slightly as he flopped onto the couch next to her.

"It is,"she agreed. "You should go back to sleep."

He slung his arms across the back of the couch, swallowing a yawn. She was up in the middle of the night to read. He shook his head, resisting the urge to tug the book away from her.

"Sure, when you come with me." He told her, shifting into a comfortable slouch. "Any reason why you're still awake?"

Leia stayed where she was for a moment before suppressing a sigh, sliding sideways so that she was leaning into him. He was, as always, very comfortable.

"That would defeat the purpose of you going to sleep," she informed him. "And no, no reason in particular." It wasn't a lie, as such. There was no reason in particular. Rather, there were many of them, and they were all equally waited. "I could ask you the same question, you realise."

He slid his arm down from the couch to wrap around her shoulder without a word. This was what he'd been missing, having her close.

"Well, that's an easy question. I can't sleep on my own in that damn bed." He answered bluntly. "Too much room. I've gotten used to you kicking me in your sleep."
