For the mistletoe requests: Fivesoka and “Laughing”
Fivesoka request YAY!! Thank you for requesting this one! 💙
I'm also tagging @aknightreaderr, since you requested Fivesoka and the laughing prompt as well. I guess we all know how perfect this prompt is for them. I actually have another idea, so I'm planning to do this pair/prompt again later, so I'll answer your ask then! 😁
It's also here on AO3.

“Look who’s under the mistletoe now.”
Before Ahsoka could turn towards Fives’ voice, his arms encircled her waist from behind and he pulled her back against his chest. She felt the brush of his goatee as he settled his chin between her montrals. She didn’t know why he suddenly felt the need to hold her this way, but she certainly wasn’t complaining.
She looked over to the corner of the room to where she knew the mistletoe was hanging. She and Fives had spotted it as soon as they arrived at Riyo’s party, and they had been scoping it out throughout the evening; watching to see who they could catch kissing beneath the hanging plant. They’d already seen Bly and Aayla, Obi-Wan and Satine, and Riyo and Fox, of course. Then to their surprise, they’d seen Tech and Phee together, and then Crosshair and the beautiful blonde woman that he’d brought as his date.
“Crosshair has a date?” Fives had gasped in surprise, though he’d kept his voice low against Ahsoka’s montral.
“Don’t act so surprised,” she scolded, smacking her partner lightly on the arm.
Then a short while later, they’d spotted Echo under the mistletoe, making out with an auburn-haired woman who Ahsoka didn’t recognize.
“Oh yeah, Echo had a girlfriend too,” Fives had explained, vaguely. Then Ahsoka had slammed her hand over his mouth when he added that he should cheer them on. She’d ask him more details about that later.
Now it was Anakin and Padmé, and Ahsoka couldn’t help but smile as she watched her former master with his wife. Now that the war was over, he’d left the Jedi, and his marriage was common knowledge; he and Padmé were nearly inseparable.
And now Ahsoka could relate. She tilted her head up slightly, attempting to catch a glimpse of her partner, who was still holding her from behind.
“What?” Fives asked, turned his head to meet her eyes. “You want to go next?”
“What, no!” she protested.
“Why not?”
“Fives, you can kiss me whenever you want,” Ahsoka pointed out. “We don’t need mistletoe.”
“But it’ll be romantic.” He pulled her against him again and pushed his nose into her neck, sending goosebumps rippling across her skin.
“Stop!” she laughed. She wiggled in his arms until she could turn around to face him. “Just kiss me here.”
She rose on her toes and attempted to kiss his mouth, but he leaned back, out of reach.
“No, I want to kiss you under the mistletoe,” he said again.
“Fives,” Ahsoka groaned, banging her fists lightly on his chest. “You’re not going to get me to go over there, so you might as well kiss me here.”
“But the Skywalkers are done now.” He nodded towards the now empty mistletoe corner. “Just in time for us.”
“By the time you get me over there, we will have wasted all this time that we could have just been kissing right here,” she pointed out.
“Well, we better hurry up then.”
Before Ahsoka could protest again, Fives bent down and scooped her into his arms. By the time he’d carried her over to the mistletoe, she had buried her face in his chest to muffle her own laughter.
She lifted her head when she felt him stop walking and glanced up to see the white berries of the mistletoe looking down at them. Then she turned to look at her partner. His amber eyes were sparking with mischief and he had the smuggest grin stretched across his face.
“Okay, you win,” she huffed. “Are you going to put me down?”
“Nope.”
Then Fives leaned down and kissed her deeply. He didn’t hesitate to graze her lower lip with his teeth and push his tongue into her mouth to intertwine it with hers. It was the kind of kiss that always made Ahsoka’s lekku heat and her heart flip. When he placed one last, soft kiss on her lips and pulled back, it was way too soon.
“So, was that kiss worth coming over here for?” he asked. He finally loosened his grip and let her place her feet back on the floor, but he kept his arms around her waist, holding her close to him.
“Maybe.” She offered him a smirk. No way was she going to make this easy for him. “Would be better if you’d just kiss me like that all the time.”
Fives raised an eyebrow and his lips pulled up into the half-smile that she loved so much.
“That can be arranged.”
Before she could respond, he was pulling her in to kiss her again.
