Padme was sound asleep, when there was moaning sound coming, from the space right next to her. Rolling over to left side, she came face to face with the person laying there.
Shhh, it is ok. Am right here, Ani. Padme wrapped her arms around Anakin and snuggling up against him.
Anakin relaxed and went back into a deep sleep, when he felt the comforting arms of his wife, coming around him, as her calming spirit chased all his dark demons away. Padme closed her eyes and went back to sleep ,once she realized that Anakin had relaxed and fallen back into a deep sleep. Two hours later, Padme woke up again, when she felt light kisses moving up her bare shoulder and up to her neck.
Mmmm, that feels so wonderful, Anakin. Padme rolled over and smiled up at a very handsome man, leaning over her.
I had to find a way to wake up my beautiful wife. Anakin smiled,before leaning down and giving Padme a very passionate kiss.
All I can say is, I love waking up this way. You will be spoiling me, into wanting to wake up like this every morning. Padme moved slightly, so that way, Anakin could move in between her legs.
Anakin leaned down and began kissing Padme, but there was a buzzing sound coming from somewhere in the room.
Damn, what is that sound? Now, what? Anakin rolled over and laid back down on his side of the bed.
Oh, that is my Com-link, but it is not buzzing now. Um, great. 3PO? Padme looked at the door, when there was a light tap on the bedroom door.
Excuse me, Milady, but Queen Jamillia just called. She needs to see you this afternoon, for a private luncheon and Master Anakin can also come along with you too. 3PO just stood in the doorway and looked at the couple laying in the bed.
Thank you, 3PO. That is all for now, but could you wake us up, in about an hour, before we have to leave for the luncheon? Padme slightly sat up and nodded over to the golden droid.
Yes, Milady. Oh, what about breakfast? the golden droid turned back around, before heading back to his other duties.
Dont worry about it. We are not hungry, so you can go back to whatever it was you were doing. Anakin raised his hand, moved it in a sliding motion and with the Force, he shut the door in the droids face.
Anakin, that wasnt very nice. Now, my only question is, how did she know that I was even on Naboo? I never said anything to anyone about leaving Coruscant and coming here. I did not even take my ship here, so how? Padme laid back down and wrapped her arms back around Anakin, before she started yawning.
Sorry, but sometimes that droid can be a pain in the butt. I do not know. It really does seem that they always know where we are, mostly when we do not want to be bothered or just want to go into hiding from everything or everybody. I think we both should just go back to sleep, for a little bit. Anakin pulled Padme closer to him, as he too began to yawn. Before he could finish talking ,he looked down and saw that Padme had fallen back to sleep.
Anakin reached down some, grabbed the covers and pulled them up, so that way, it was fully covering them up. Then, he closed his eyes and drifted back to sleep.
Anakin pulled the speeder up to the gate and the guard stepped out of the gatehouse and came up to the speeder.
Good afternoon, folks. Can I help you. the guard asked Anakin, as he stopped next to the speeder.
Afternoon. We are here to see Queen Jamilia. Anakin looked up at the guy.
Am sorry, but Her Highness is not seeing people today the guard looked at the two people in the speeder.
I got a message from her this morning. She wanted us to join her for lunch. Padme leaned over to Anakin, so that way, she could get a better look at the guard.
Oh. Well, I need to have your names, so that way, I can verify that invitation to lunch with her Highness. the guard looked at Padme and was trying to figure out where he had seen her before.
Ok. Senator Amidala and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker. Anakin gave the man their names.
Ok. One moment, please. the guard nodded, before heading back into the guard house and called the security office of the Palace.
I wonder why they are being so picky. I thought the Palace has been open all the time, to guests like Senators and even to the Jedi. Anakin looked at Padme and took her hand and held it.
We been having problems with the miners and a couple of labors. They had a few rioters coming up to the Palace and even up to the Senators and Representatives offices. So, now the Palace and Government offices are only open to the public two days of the week and also by appointments. Padme watched the guard, as he was talking to someone in the head office.
This is officer Blanc, at the back gate. I have a couple here and they are telling me that they are here to see Her Highness for lunch. Their names are Senator Amidala and Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker. the guard told the head of security at the Palace.
Let them in. They are here for the lunch with Queen Jamilia. the head of security told the guard, as he looked down at the only names on his data pad.
Yes, sir. They are going to be on their way then. the guard said, as hit the button that open the gate door.
Anakin waved to the guard, as he began to drive through the gates of the Palace. Once they were inside the gated area, they headed for the private door that is used only by the Queen, her handmaidens and security team.
Padme, it is so great to see again and you too Anakin. Please. follow me. Captain Panaka came out of the door, when he saw the young couple parking in front of the private door.
Captain Panaka, it is so great to see you again too. How are things here in the Palace? Padme asked the older man, as he came over to the speeder and helped them out of the speeder.
It is doing a light better now, since we came up with an agreement with the miners and labors. the head of security guard told the younger couple, as they walked inside the Palace and headed up the back stairwell that lead to the private chambers of the Queen.
That is so great to hear. I got a worried, when I heard that things had gotten a little rough, when there was a small riot break out here, just outside the Palace gates. Padme looked at the older man, as they walked down the hallway to the double doors that was the Queens private chambers.
Yes, maam. It did get a little hairy there for a little bit, but it all worked out in the end. Senator Amidala and Jedi Knight Skywalker are here for lunch with the Queen. Panaka told the handmaiden, who opened the door when he knocked on the door.
Thank you, Captain Panaka. Padme and Anakin, please come in. Her Highness is in the living room. the handmaiden motioned for the young couple to come into the room and nodded to the security guard that he was dismissed.
Padme and Anakin came into the room and saw Jamilia sitting on the couch, drinking her Caf.
Padme, Anakin, thank you for coming on short notice. So, please have a seat. Lunch is still being fixed and it will be ready in a couple of minutes. Jamilia stood up and gave both Padme and Anakin welcoming hugs and then motioned for them to have a seat.
It is not a problem. We really did not have anything planned for the day. My only question for you is, how did you know that I was here? I never told anyone that was here or even leaving Coruscant. Padme sat down on the couch and the handmaiden came over to Padme with tray of tea.
Well, I did call your office and I was told that the Senate was on a month long break. So, then my thought was, you would not stay there and that you would come here to your house, in the Lake Country. I just took a guess and then your droid told me that you were there at the house, when I called this morning. Jamilia looked at the young couple, wondering if she interrupted something this morning.
I see. Man, it seems that I cannot get away from work. Padme said with small laugh.
Sorry, to ruin your quiet vacation away from work, but two days ago, I got a call from a Prince Branndyn of Satturnline. He would like to have a treaty with us, and he would also like to get some plasma from us. The only person I could count on in doing this treaty right, was you, Padme. Jamilia gave Padme a small smile ,just before the service droid came into the room.
Lunch is served, your Majesty. the droid announced.
Thank you, I-49. Jamilia nodded to the droid, before standing up.
I see. If I agree to do this treaty, when do I have to leave for this trip? Padme asked, as they came to the table. Anakin came over to her chair and held it out for her, after he held out the chair for Jamilia.
You will have two weeks, before you will have to leave. I will give you time to think about it. Oh and Anakin, can also go with you, as your bodyguard and even as security for you too. Jamilia looked at the young girl, sitting in front of her. A couple of service droids came into the room, with the food and began serving lunch to the people sitting at the table.
That was very good and thank you for having us for lunch,. I will give you my answer in the middle of the week, about heading out to Satturnline. Padme told Jamilia, as they walked to the double doors of the private chambers.
That would be great. By then, I would have the treaty written up and waiting for you. That is, if you decided to go that is. Well, you both have a great day. Jamilia walked with them into the hallway and hugged them goodbye.
Padme nodded and hugged Jamilia back, before her and Anakin left the Palace and the city, They headed back to the Lake house, where they spent the rest of the day, just relaxing and enjoying each others company. After a quiet dinner with each other, Anakin went into the refresher and started the water in the tub. Padme got two glasses of wine, then they both climbed into the tub and cleaned each other. Then. they even made love, before laying back in the tub and relaxed, before getting out and going to bed. Once in bed, Anakin made slow and passionate love to Padme, then afterwards, they held each other, as they drifted off to a peaceful sleep.
