Awww- Poor Anakin!

I can sympathize with Obi-Wan though... I think if I had been in his situation, I wouldn't be thinking like a Jedi- I'd just let the kid have it.



More soon?

That was really moving. I think that once Obi calms down he would try to help Ani because they really are like family. However, I doubt Palpy will let that happen. Stupid Sith. Great post!

BTW, I was kind of confused about the whole user name thing. It’s pretty funny that you were talking on the thread even though you were only a few rooms apart.

Padmé stirred, and turned over, reaching instinctively for Anakin, only to find an empty space.

The sheets were still warm, his scent still lingered. Padmé breathed deeply, inhaling the familiar scent, her thoughts drifting to how blissfully lucky she was to be married to such a man.

She sat up, looking around for her husband. "Ani?" she whispered.

Then she heard the voices outside the door, the sounds that had woken her from her slumber.

She strained to hear what was going on, and voice she heard next belonged to Obi-Wan.

"You weren't thinking! You never think! And this time you've gone and gotten yourself into a bigger mess than I ever dreamed you could!"

Padmé's stomach dropped with understanding.

He knew. Obi-Wan knew.

Without pausing, she threw back the bedsheet and hurried over to the chair where her robe was draped, sliding it on and then running to the door. She slapped the touch pad and the door slid open to reveal the scene she had been dreading for over two years.

Master Kenobi and his former apprentice stood in horrible silence, the tension and pain in the air so thick it might have been cut with a vibroblade. Both men looked up at her as she slipped into the hallway, and she saw conflicting emotions swirling in both of their eyes.

There was such terrible pain in Anakin's eyes that Padmé wanted to rush into his arms and kiss away the tears that he was struggling to withhold.

But she didn't, she couldn't. Instead, she raised her chin, swallowing hard, and faced Obi-Wan.

His blue-gray eyes were blazing with anger, the jet of his jaw firmer than Padmé could ever recall seeing it. Something undefinable flickered in his eyes when his gaze fell on her, but he did not speak to her, and that in itself spoke of just what an act of betrayal he saw this as. He turned back to Anakin, glaring daggers at the young Jedi.

"You actually had the gall to bring her here!" Obi-Wan accused incredulously. "I can't believe you, Anakin! And yet, somehow, I'm not surprised in the least."

"It didn't start like-" Anakin protested desperately.

"So you snuck to her rooms?" Obi-wan demanded sharply. "Oh, yes, Anakin, that makes everything much better!"

His tone was bitter, sarcastic, but Padmé saw beyond that to the hurt beneath his anger, and tears welled in her eyes. Her heart was aching for them both, these two men who were such a part of each other's lives that she wasn't sure they knew how to not be.

"What do you have to say for yourself, Anakin?"

Anakin kept his silence, averting his gaze.

"Well, then," Obi-Wan said coolly. "I see we have nothing else to say to each other."

And with that he turned on his heel, his Jedi robes swirling around him. Padmé could almost see the weight on his shoulders, the heaviness in his heart as he walked away from his former Padawan.

Padmé went to Anakin then, embracing him tightly. He didn't move, didn't react to her touch, and she could hear his heart pounding furiously as she pressed her cheek against his chest. He stared after Obi-Wan, his chin lifted and his eyes tortured.

"Obi-Wan," he whispered, the desperation in his voice so fearsome it frightened her.

It was too much for Padmé, and she closed her eyes, burying her face in Anakin's chest so that he would not see the tears falling down her cheeks.

She had expected consequences. She just hadn't expected that they could ever be this painful.
