Where do you think you are going? Obi-Wan asked, as he walked into the room and saw Anakin all cleaned up.
Oh, um . . . well, I thought I would go and see how Senator Amidala is doing. Then, I thought that maybe I would take her out for dinner, but only as friends. Anakin put the comb down in his trunk.
Ok. Then, tell her hello for me. Do you know if she is at her apartment right now? Obi-Wan sat down on his bed.
No. She is still over at the Senate Building. I did call Dorme first and she told me that she is at the office. Anakin grabbed his clean robe and put it on.Then, grabbed his lightsaber and hooked it onto his belt.
Ok. Just be careful and remember the curfew. Obi-Wan reminded his young Padawan that cannot be late for tonights meditation.
Ok. I promise not to be late for tonights meditation. We will have a dinner and then, I will take her to her apartment, say goodnight and come straight back here. Anakin smiled at Obi-Wan, before walking out of his and Obi-Wans quarters and headed down to the hanger bay.
Hey, Anakin. What are you doing for dinner? a male Padawan asked, as he too came up to the turbo-lift.
Oh. Hey, Kennie, I am going out to dinner. Anakin pushed the down button.
Really? You think that . . . . Kennie started to say.
Um . . . sorry, but am having dinner with a friend that I have not seen in a while. Anakin stepped onto the lift and waited for the other Padawan to get onto the lift too.
Oh. Do I know this person and are they in the Jedi Order? Kennie hit the button that he needed, before watching Anakin hit the button for the hanger bay.
I do not think so. She is pretty new here to Coruscant. I have known her for ten years. Anakin saw a shocked look come across his friends face, when he told him that his friend was a female.
Oh, really? So, are you going to have some fun with her? Kennie smiled at Anakin.
Yes, I am going to have fun with her, but not like that. Anakin gave him a warning look, as not to push the subject.
Ok, sorry. Well, have fun tonight and see you tomorrow then. Kennie said to Anakin, before stepping off the lift and headed down the hallway to the dining hall.
Anakin finally reached the hanger bay and began walking over to where the speeders were located. He came up to the one of the Temple Guards.
Hey, Anakin. What can I do for you tonight? the Guard said, as Anakin came up to him.
Hey, Jay. I need my speeder. I am going to see a friend and have dinner with her. Anakin walked over to the desk.
Ok. You do know that curfew is in four hours. Jay gave Anakin a warning look.
Yes, I know and I will be back before then. Anakin hopped into his speeder.
Twenty minutes later, Anakin walked down the hallway, until he came to Padmes office. With the Force, he unlocked the door and stepped into the receiving office. He relocked the door, before walking over to the open door of Padmes office. Anakin walked into the office and saw Padme sitting behind her desk. She was reading her data pad and she did not even notice that he was standing there in the doorway.
Um . . . hello? Anakin knocked on the door.
Oh . . . Hello, Anakin. Um, how did you get in here? Padme looked up and saw Anakin standing there in the doorway.
I came by to see how you were doing and also to see if you would like to go out and have dinner with me? Anakin smiled at her, as he walked into further into the office.
I see. You know, I have had enough of this stuff for the day, and I am hungry. So, yes I will go out to dinner with you. Anywhere but Dexs. I have eaten there at least three times this week and I would like to have a change of scenery. Padme got up from her desk, grabbed her small bag and put her chips and pad into it.
Anakin nodded and then he waited for Padme to lock up the office.Then, they got into his speeder and headed over to the Outlander Club.
