The Bad Batch: Book 2

Part 30: Searching For Marauder

Luna's POV 

As I woke up I slowly looked around seeing Wrecker sleeping on the table and Tech sleeping on the ground with the monitor on his chest. Who knows how long he stayed up? Feeling the weight over my shoulder, I saw Hunter sleeping on my right. His head was against the wall and his hand was still around me. He didn't move a bit.

Me: "Hunter." 

I called his name softly. He was in deep sleep so I called his name again. His eyes quickly opened and he looked at me. 

Me: "Hey it's okay. It's only morning." 

I said as I set up making him remove the hand that was around me. It was early in the morning but I knew that they wanted to wake up early. 

Hunter: "Oh. Morning." 

His hand went over his sleepy eyes. 

Me: "Morning." 

Placing his hand on the ground between us I placed my hand on top of his hand making him look at me. 

Me: "Thank you." 

I slowly lined in and kissed him on the cheek. I wanted to thank him for keeping me warm and safe. So I kissed him on his tattooed cheek.  As I removed my lips I saw him looking at me. Feeling my cheeks burning red I began to push myself away from him when his hand suddenly came under my head and his fingers touched my chin. In a second I was perealized by his eyes. They were pulling me towards him.

He began to line in and I was compliant still. Not moving at all. He stooped as he looked down at my lips. We were so close that I could feel his breath on me. I wanted to kiss him. But I couldn't move. I wanted him to kiss me. Just then a grunt was heard and as I looked to my left I saw Tech waking up. I moved my head away from Hunter's fingers and pushed myself on my legs. 

Me: "Morning Tech." 

Tech: "Morning." 

He said as he set up with the monitor in his hand. Hunter stood up next to me. I looked at him then I approached Wrecker who was still sleeping on the table like a baby. 

Me: "Wrecker it's time to get up." 

His eyes slowly opened and he looked at me. 

Wrecker: "Five more minutes." 

Me: "Sorry buddy it's time to get up." 

A grunt left his mouth before he set up. 

Wrecker: "I am hungry." 

Hunter: "It's chew time. Eat up but keep the portions in control." 

He gave each of us a bar and I saw Wrecker eating in seconds. Making sure that Tech and Hunter did not see us I elbowed Wrecker making him look at me seeing that I was offering him my bar. I wasn't really hungry and I knew that he needed more. Like his own, he ate mine in a second then he gave me a thankful smile.

Me: "So got any idea how to get off this planet Tech?" 

I asked as I looked at him. 

Tech: "I did. We can try to repair that speeder that is outside. But it will take a while." 

Me: "Do you think we can use it to get to town?" 

Tech: "Yes." 

Hunter: "Let's get to work then." 

Two hours later...

Wrecker: "Uh I'm bored. I'm hot, and I'm starving."
