Hera Syndulla was watching Kanan cook. She herself could not cook, but her baking was amazing.

The Twi'lek normally found it amusing that Kanan could cook for some strange reason... but right now, she was just watching his ponytail.

The pilot realized that she had never actually seen his hair down before. It started to bother her. They had been living on the same ship for a couple of months now, and she had never once seen him take his ponytail down. She was somewhat convinced that he slept with it up.

      "Breakfast is ready, sweetheart." Kanan gave a lopsided smile. Hera hated it when he called her sweetheart. She knew that he liked her, but the Twi'lek thought that it was only because she was attractive. At first, yes, it was just because she was pretty, but over the months, Kanan had come to grow actual feelings for her, because of her personality and who she was... but Hera didn't know that and it was hard for Kanan to admit it. Kanan knew she hated the nickname, but that's kind of why he continued to use it, she was cute when she's annoyed.

"Alrighty." Hera said bluntly, trying to keep her eyes off his hair. Kanan smirked as he noticed her staring. The ex-Jedi placed a plate in front of his Twi'lek and did the same for himself.

     His ponytail bounced with every move he made, and it was driving Hera crazy. The two ate in a silence and then parted, Hera still frustrated.

     Hera came up with a plan.

Later that night, when Kanan was asleep, Hera snuck into his room and sat down by his bed.

Of course, Kanan wasn't actually asleep, and he knew she was there. Hera didn't know that though, come to think of it, Hera didn't know a lot of things.

      Hera gently placed her hand behind his head, where his ponytail was (yes he sleeps with it in, just for the sake of the story 😂). The Twi'lek grabbed the elastic hair tie that was keeping his hair up, and pulled it out.

     Kanan heard her let out a small gasp. Hera hesitated and stared for a moment and Kanan was starting to actually fall asleep.

       Kanan came to the conclusion that she was just going to sit there and stare, so he let him self drift off into a light sleep.

     That didn't last long, a few minutes later, he was awakened by the feel of her hand going through his hair. It felt really weird but kind of nice at the same time.

     Kanan suddenly grabbed her arm and she gasped.

      "Kanan! Uh um... I'm sorry!" Hera rambled on. Kanan smirked and let go of his arm.

      "It's-" Kanan started to speak but Hera ran out of the room, extremely embarrassed before he could finish.

     Kanan sighed, then laid down. 'Maybe there's a chance she likes me to...'  

     Kanan sighed again, then fell into a peaceful sleep with a huge smile on his face.
