Padme got up and got ready for her day at her office. Thank goodness, she only has one meeting with some of the representatives today. Then, she can go home at lunch and spend the rest of the day at home with Anakin, who was coming over for lunch. He was not going to be alone, because Obi-Wan will be joining them too.
Good morning, Padme. Breakfast is ready. Dorme came into the bedroom and was surprised to see that Padme was already dressed for the day.
Good morning, Dorme. Thank you. Can you make sure that you leave early from the office and come back here, to make sure that lunch is ready, shortly before I come back here? Jedi Master Obi-Wan and Anakin Skywalker will be joining us for lunch. Padme finished putting the clips in her hair, as her friend came into the bedroom.
Ok, that sounds good. Do I have to make extra dinner today for Anakin? Dorme looked at her friend and boss and gave her a smile.
Sure, just in case. If he cannot make it tonight, then I can have it either for lunch or leftovers for the following night. Padme smiled, as she walked out of the bedroom and headed for the kitchen.
Ok. So today, you have only one meeting and will be heading here for lunch. After lunch, I do have a few things that I need to get done. Dorme went over to the small oven and pulled out the breakfast that she had made for her and Padme.
That is fine. You can have the rest of the day off, when you leave the office today. Padme sat down at the small table and reaching for the cup of Caf that was sitting in her spot at the table.
Ok, that sounds good to me. Here you go: eggs, bacon and fruit. Dorme put the plate of food down in front of Padme, before putting down her own plate in her spot at the table.
They sat there, eating breakfast and as they ate, Padme was telling Dorme about her month off at home on Naboo, and her trip to Satturnline. Something told Padme that there was something not right about that place.
Well, that was great. Thank you for breakfast. Well, we need to get going, and just let 3PO clean up this mess. Padme looked over at the golden droid, who just walked into the room.
Yes, Milady. I will clean up the dishes here. You must be get going or you will be late for your meeting. 3PO came up to the table and began clearing the table for his Mistress.
Thank you, 3PO. Let us get going, Dorme. Oh and 3PO, can you make sure that lunch will be ready, before twelve? If Anakin and Obi-Wan get here before I get here, make them at home, please? Padme walked over to the door, before she opened the door.
3PO just nodded and took the dishes over to the washer. He put them in there, before getting the pan and also putting it into the washer. Hitting the start button, he went on to the daily chores for the day. Twenty minutes later, Padme and Dorme walked into the office. Dorme went over to her desk and sat down, while Padme walked into her office and got things together for her meeting that will be happening in about five minutes.
Ok, everyone. I will see you all next week. You all have a great day and week. Padme motioned for the small group that the meeting was over.
Everyone got up, said goodbye and headed out of the office and noticed that Dorme was not there. She had left shortly before the meeting was over, so she could head back to the apartment, to make sure that lunch was ready for the small luncheon that Padme was having. Padme followed the small group out of the office and locked up. Then, she headed to her shuttle and back to her apartment, so that way, she can have a quiet lunch with her close friends and husband.
Hey, guys. Am home. Oh, Prince Branndyn. This is a total surprise. Padme walked into the room and not only did she see the two Jedi, but sitting with them was the Prince of Satturnline.
Senator Amidala, I am sorry to come here uninvited, but I was here on some business. I stopped at the Senate Building and one of the Senators told me where you lived. When I got here, I met up with Jedi Knight Skywalker. Prince Branndyn nodded over to Anakin.
I see. Welcome to my home and I can make room for one more for my small luncheon. Padme came over to the Prince and shook his hand.
Well, thank you for the invite, but I really cannot stay for lunch. I was hoping that you can join me for dinner tonight? the Prince asked, as he looked at Padme, as he was undressing her with his eyes.
Thank you for your invite for dinner, but I am sorry to say that I already have dinner plans for tonight and for the rest of the week. Padme moved away from him, because she was feeling very uneasy to be around him.
I see. Maybe lunch then. He bowed his head to Padme.
Um, sure. I cannot leave the Senate Building, but we can have lunch down in the restaurant at the Senate Building, if that is ok with you? Padme nodded and knew that she would feel a lot better, if she was surrounded by other people.
That is fine. How about in two days? Prince Branndyn nodded and gave Padme a smile, before he started heading for the door.
Two days then. Hope that you enjoy your stay here on Coruscant and have a great day. Padme nodded back and followed the man to the door and opened it up for him.
Padme shut the door and then leaned back against it for a parsec, as she was trying to ease the eerie feeling that she got from him. She straightened herself up, and walked back into the living room, to where everyone was still sitting.
Are you ok, Padme? Obi-Wan gave Padme a worried look.
Yes, I am fine. Am just glad that he is gone. Padme came over to the chair and sat down.
There is something about that man that I do not like. Dorme looked at the small group.
Excuse, Milady. Lunch is ready. 3PO came into the room and announced that lunch was ready.
Everyone got up and headed for the kitchen. They sat down at the small table, as two serving droids began putting down the plates, in front of the people sitting around the table. Two hours later, everyone left and Padme went into her room and had the shades lower, all throughout the apartment, so that the late afternoon sun would stop coming through the windows. Getting undressed down to her under clothes, Padme then climbed into her bed and laid down for a two hour nap.
Later that night, after a very quiet dinner with Anakin, they went into her tub. They just laid back in the hot water and just relaxed, before heading off to bed. They just cuddled up in each others arms and fell into a deep sleep.
