A is for Adorable
He had always been adorable.
As a child, the wide-eyed innocence that he possessed endeared even the most indifferent people. Obi-Wan had never thought that a "puppy-dog" look would work on him. He realized how wrong he was when he took Anakin as an apprentice.
As he got older, the childlike chubbiness was gone from his cheeks and Obi-Wan stopped calling him "kitten" as a pet name. But he wasn't any less adorable.
It was always in his eyes and smile – an sweet combination of innocence and softness with, now, a maturity mixed into the lines of his boyish features.
B is for Brave
There were so many of them.
The young padawan looked out of his hiding place with wide, fearful eyes as he watched the ominous droidikas, advancing forward, closer with each clanking step they took. Anakin looked back at his master who was slumped half unconscious against the durasteel wall. "Master, there are so many of them!"
Obi-Wan reached out and squeezed his shoulder. "It's up to you padawan…I'm rather incapacitated for the moment. Be brave."
The boy nodded. For Obi-Wan he would be. He had to be.
The padawan stood and stepped out into the light to face the blasters.
C is for Caring
For all the time that Obi-Wan could remember, Anakin had always been there for him, sharing in the good and bad.
Anakin had come to his room the night Qui-Gon died, mug of tea in hand and a silent offer for comfort. Anakin stayed with him when Siri died, sitting with him quietly through that first eternal night. Anakin was the first thing he woke up to in the healers' ward after being injured.
There were the good times. Anakin taking him out for drinks, or Anakin throwing him a surprise birthday party.
It was all in the small things.
