Rey realizes that Poe is hot… in more ways than one.
Damerey Challenge Double Drabble
Prompt: I was not built for this weather
Rey frowned at the man in front of her as they moved into the shade. He was breathing hard and looked pale.
“I was not built for this weather,” Poe groaned as he stopped. He reached for his water canteen.
“I thought you grew up on a hot planet,” Rey said as she moved next to him.
“Not this hot.” He took a swig of his water. “And not this dry.” Zendion was a lot like Jakku.
“Poe, are you sweating?” Rey was concerned now.
“Of course…” he stopped, then looked at her with wide eyes.
Rey pulled out her own canteen. “Take off your shirt.”
His right eyebrow rose, but he complied.
Rey’s breath caught in her throat as she saw Poe shirtless for the first time. She blinked a couple of times, then licked her lips and started sprinkling water on his overheated skin. “You need to drink more,” she told him as she circled him. She focused on the droplets of water as they dribbled down his bare chest, past the ring he wore, and down toward his belt. Swallowing, she looked up, meeting his dark eyes. “Better?”
“Much.”
His rumbled reply sent shivers up Rey’s spine.
