Anakin woke up to the wind howling and a loud clap of thunder and then a bright flash of lightening, as it struck close by the house.
Damn, that was close. Anakin sat up and then he looked over to other side of the bed and saw that it was empty.
A smell of bacon and Caf came into the room. Anakin got up out of bed and looked around for his robe, but did not see it on the floor, where he thought he dropped the night before. He looked around his side of the bed and still did not find his robe. So, he thought it would be fine, just to head out of the room as he was. Before walking out the door, he noticed his robe was laying on the back of the chair. Grabbing his robe and putting it on, he walked out of the door and headed for the wonderful smells that drifted through the house.
Oh, good morning. Padme looked up from the pan that she was using for the eggs.
Morning. Mmm, this smells great. I did not know that you could cook. Anakin stepped further into the kitchen, coming up to the counter and sitting down on the stool.
Yes, I can cook, believe it or not. It really relaxes me. Here, let me pour you some Caf and breakfast will be ready in couple of minutes. Padme put the fork down and turned to the counter behind her and grabbed the pot of Caf. She brought it over to the counter and began pouring the hot liquid into the two cups that sat in the places that her and Anakin will be sitting.
Wow, and I just thought you had someone or even the service droids to fix the food for you. Um, where is Dorme? Anakin just noticed that it was only the two of them in the kitchen.
No. I do most of my cooking for myself and even for Dorme. It is only us here. Dorme had a few things to do on Coruscant, so she could not leave when I left. She also said that she was going to visit a cousin, who lives in the Core Sector. So, they let you go somewhere without Obi-Wan? Where is he at? Padme grabbed the plate next to her and put the four sausage patties and the four strips of bacon onto the plate that had a towel on it, so that way, the oil could drain off the food.
Like I said before, he told me to go. He told me that he had something to do, before going off on a secret mission. Anakin took a sip of his Caf.
Ok. So, tell me why are you really here, Anakin. I know by the look on your face that you are hiding something from me. Padme looked across the island and she saw a small blush come across the young Padawans face.
You are right. There is a reason why I am here. Um . . . You remember the conversation that we had a while back?. . . I came here to tell you that I have been thinking and I have not been sleeping, because I cannot get you out of my mind. Padme, I cannot live without you in my life. I really want you as my girl. I love you and I do not want to lose you. Anakin looked straight at Padme, so that way, she could feel and even see what is in his heart.
I see . . . . was all Padme could say, as she just stood there, looking straight at Anakin. She could see what is in his heart and she saw love shining in it.
