Anakin was sitting in the cockpit, watching the blurry stars fly by, as the ship flew through hyperspace. He was also so in deep thought that he did not hear Padme come in and sit down beside.
" Hey, what is up? You seem to be in a different world, since we left Arkania. Is there anything wrong?" Padme asked, handing him a cup of tea.
" Oh, hey. Sorry, I have been thinking ,is all. Why did we not find any kind of cloning that was reported to the Council?" Anakin said, before taking a sip of his tea.
" I do not know either. Someone is lying on the Council, or someone was lying to us on Arkania, but I do have a feeling that something is going on and that is why we did not get to talk to Doctor Lumbiuman." Padme said, taking a sip of her tea.
" You think the reason why we did not see him is, because they killed him, or they are hiding him from us, because they do not want us to find anything illegal?" Anakin said, taking another sip.
" Yeah, that could be it. Well what do you want to eat?" Padme said, getting up from the chair.
" Surprise me. You know, this tea tastes good. What is in it?" Anakin asked, as he took another sip.
" Orange, Peach and some flowers." Padme said, leaving the cockpit.
Anakin laid his head back against the headrest on the chair and closed his eyes. He was wondering why in the world where they getting the run around, because he knew that the Arkanians were hiding something and they did not want the Republic to know what they were doing on their planet.
" Here you go. I thought a sandwich would work just fine. It is better than the rations that we have been eating for the past couple of days." Padme said, coming back into the cockpit.
" Thanks. Yeah, this is better than the rations that we have been eating. This is really bothering me. We were sent there for some reason and all we get is lies. You know they are hiding something from the Republic and it could fall into the Separatists hands and if that happens, then the Republic is in trouble." Anakin said, taking a bite of his sandwich.
" I sense that too. I hate to say this, but why do I get the feeling that the Chancellor is behind this too?" Padme said, cringed when she mentioned the man, because of how Anakin feels about him.
" You know what, I am beginning to see what everyone else sees about him. The other day he said something that sent chills down my spin and I also felt something dark around him." Anakin said, as he reached over, grabbed his cup, and took a sip of his tea.
" I too have felt that way about him for a long time." Padme said ,as she ate her sandwich and turned forward in her seat, so that way, she could watch the blurry stars fly by them.
Twenty minutes later, Padme finished up her sandwich and tea as did Anakin.
" Well, I do not about you, but I think I am going to bed now. I will see you in a few." Padme got up, leaned forward, and kissed Anakin.
" Ok. I will be there in a few minutes." Anakin said, kissing her one more time, before taking one more sip of his tea.
Padme left the cockpit and went into the kitchen area, put the cup and trash away, before heading off towards her sleeping quarters. She opened the bedroom door, went into the room, before closing the door, and started taking off her clothes.
" Here, let me help you with that." Anakin said, coming up behind Padme and wrapped his arms around her waist.
" Then, I have to help your with your clothes." Padme said, turning around in his arms and wrapping her arms around his neck and began kissing him.
" Mmm... you know you drive me crazy when you do that." Anakin said, as Padme pulled away and began nibbling on his right ear.
" I know and I want you so badly, Anakin." Padme said, pulling away from him and took off her clothes, before climbing into the bed.
" Damn, that makes me hot for you too, Padme." Anakin said, as he took off his clothes and Padme could see what she was doing to him.
Anakin climbed onto the bed and Padme spread her legs, so that way Anakin could get between them.
" Do not wait any longer, Anakin, I want you now." Padme begged ,as she felt him slide the head of his penis, just inside her opening.
" As you wish, my Angel." Anakin said, before thrusting himself deep inside of her.
An hour later, Anakin rolled off of Padme, after they both hit their sexual climax and he laid there with Padme resting her head on his bare shoulder.
" Anakin, I know that something else is bother you and it has been long before we left for this mission. Please tell me what is wrong." Padme asked, as she looked up at him.
" What if I told you that I have been feeling that the Jedi Order really is not what it used to be. They seemed to be control by someone and I feel that they are telling me lies and that they are afraid of me, because I hold more power than all of them put together." Anakin said, as he let out a heavy breath.
" I too have felt that way for some time." Padme said, as she traced Anakin's right nipple.
" I mean, every time I think that I am closer to where I want to be in my life... I have you and your love right here in my heart and just when I figure out who I truly am and find a better place in my life, then something happens and screws it up. I have a feeling that the Jedi Council is trying to break us up, Padme." Anakin said, as he looked down at her beautiful face and felt his heart swell bigger, when he saw love shining in her eyes.
" I know and I feel the same way Anakin. There are times that I just want to leave the Order and go back home to Naboo." Padme said, as she started to yawn.
" I know what you mean, because I feel the same way. I do not think that it's right that the Order should deny a Jedi to have someone to love and even marry." Anakin said, as he looked down and saw that Padme had drifted off to sleep, closing his eyes and he too drifted off to sleep.
