    To my beloved Padawan, a gift for your Naming Day celebration, though a little early. May the day be spent in relaxation and deep meditation reflecting on all things come and gone.

    ***********************************************************************

    Time meant nothing to the Jedi Master as he reverently sat next to the bed that held his Padawan.

    A week? Has it been that long?Obi-Wan? Sighing heavily, he rubbed his face wearily.

    ?Qui-Gon?I should have known you would be here still with him. Have you not rested at all?? A deep sympathetic voice came from behind him.

    Qui-Gon did not have to turn to see who it was. He had grown up hearing that voice everyday since becoming the man?s Padawan so many years ago.

    ?Master Dooku?? He did turn and started to get up to bow out of habit, but long fingers stopped him, as the aristocrat pushed him back down in his chair.

    ?No?stay seated, I just came to see how you and the boy was fairing. We are hardly ever at the Temple at the same time lately?? Dooku strayed off as his eyes roamed over his old pupil to visually see how he was.

    ?No not quite Master?I have left a couple of times, but I can not stay away?? Qui-Gon?s attention was drawn back once more to the slumbering youth.

    ?He took the hit for me?there were too many. He leapt in front of a shot that I would not have been able to deflect in time.? Tears misted the Master?s eyes as he reached out and pushed some of the dampened ginger hair away from the closed eyes. How he longed to see those cerulean orbs once more.

    ?Padawans do that if I am not mistaken. As you have done for me in the past.? Dooku?s dark eyes softened at the younger man's words. He could see the affection and concern as well as feel it through the Force emanating from his old apprentice.

    ?He will be all right?? As far as Dooku could see, the youth looked fine except for the paleness and the bandages on the young man?s chest that could be seen above the blanket.

    ?Yes, the Chief Healer said he should recover quite well. I just wished he would wake up. Seeing is believing?? Qui-Gon mumbled as he sat back in the chair, still eyeing his apprentice.

    ?I am glad that you are well, Qui-Gon. When I returned?I had learned of the situation, but second hand.? Dooku was unsure as to relate his feelings. The two had not spoken in years since Xanatos? fall. Qui-Gon still faulted Dooku for some of the reasons as to why the Padawan had fallen to the Dark Side. He had been upset when he found out that it had been Dooku that helped his apprentice communicate with his bio-logical father. Dooku?s excuse was that the boy pleaded and mentioned that he did not want to ask Qui-Gon because he knew it would have hurt his Master?s feelings. He knew that Qui-Gon loved the boy as a son.

    Sighing quietly, Dooku regretted not pushing the issue with Qui-Gon in allowing more time with him. He missed the philosophical talks with his old Padawan. But Qui-Gon was animate about not letting him any where near Obi-Wan. He was afraid of the possibility that his ?darkness? might taint his new apprentice. So Dooku had agreed and drifted out of Qui-Gon?s life?reluctantly.

    ?Thank you for your concern Master, but as you can see we are fine.? Qui-Gon did not want to tell the older man to leave, but the tone was there in his voice. A subtle hint.

    ?Yes?I can see that now.? Laying his hand on the younger Master?s shoulder, Dooku reached for their old bond and found Qui-Gon?s shields fully in place. Not pressing, he nodded his head once in a final motion.

    ?I?m always here for you if you ever need me. Com me some time?? There was no desperation in his voice, no plea, not with Master Dooku. He was to prideful for that.

    ?Thank you. I will keep your offer in mind.? Qui-Gon said quietly. He had felt his old Master reach for their link, but he did not respond?nor would he. Too much had happened over the years and indeed they had grown apart. In more ways than one.

    ?Then goodbye Qui-Gon. It was good seeing you again.? The presence behind the y

    Aw, that was very, very sweet. [face_love] The part with Dooku was sad, though. :( I assume you've written fics where they reconcile? Obviously Xan's turning still hurts Qui. Love how he tries to protect his Padawan, though, even to the point of being a little overprotective. :) And a lovely ending!

    Thanks! This was a wonderful birthday present!

    I like the touch of explaining his alienation with Dooku.
