This is the story you've all been waiting for. This is what happens before Secret Life. And just like Secret Life, it will have some songs in it. I don't own a single one of them.

Ahsoka went to meet up with Rex. It was their first anniversary. She wanted tonight to be special. He told her to meet him in the Room of a Thousand Fountains. When she got there, she was in complete shock. Rex had set up a picnic with candles lit all around the blanket. He stood by a fountain holding two glasses of wine.

"Hey there, beautiful." She smiled and went over to him. "Happt Anniversary."

"Happy Anniversary. You did all this for me?" He handed her a glass.

"Of course I did. I love you and I want our first anniversary to be special for you. I want things to be perfect."

"I love you too, Rex." They kissed, then sat down at the picnic. They enjoyed the fresh fruit and sweet pastries. When they were done, they went back to Ahsoka's room. Rex and Ahsoka usually slept together, but they never had sex. She was never ready and she still wasn't. Rex was positive that tonight was the night they finally would. Once they were in the room, Ahsoka kissed Rex and wrapped her tiny arms around his neck. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her back. He took this as a sign to go on. He picked her up by her thighs and carried her over to the bed. He laid her down and placed himself on top of her, never breaking the kiss. She wrapped her arms tighter around his neck to deepen the kiss. Rex was going to wait for her to make the first move, but he got impatient. He reached up and lightly grabbed her breasts. She pulled away in surprise. "Rex! What are you doing?"

"I'm sorry. I was going to let you make the first move, but I got a little impatient."

"Rex, we're not having sex." This took him by surprise.

"What?"

"Rex, I'm still not ready. You know that."

"I figured you were ready for this. It's been a year."

"That doesn't mean I'm ready to have sex with you." He sighed in frustration and got off of her.

"Dammit, Ahsoka. You should be ready for this by now."

"Well, I'm sorry that I'm not. I'm only fifteen."

"And I'm eleven. I've been ready for this for a year.

"Rex, you have the mind, body and testosterone level of a thrity year old man. You should be ready, but I shouldn't be. I thought you said you would wait for me."

"I figured you would be ready in a year." She stood up.

"So, you thought that in a year, you would be able to bang me?"

""Well, when you say it like that, it sounds bad."

"But that's what you were thinking."

"But I never said that. Come on, Ahsoka. I'm a man. I have my own needs. I've respected yours. I ask this little thing from you."

"Little? Rex, you're asking me to basically give you my virginity. That's not little. That's a huge deal for me. I'm not ready for this and you should respect that."

"Ahsoka, I have respected that for the longest time. It's run out. We are having sex tonight." She crossed her arms over her chest.

"No, Rex. We're not. If you can't respect the fact that I'm not ready, we'll never have sex."

"If that's how you feel, fine. We're done." He turned to leave.

"So, that's it? You're breaking up with me because I won't have se with you? Are you freaking serious?"

"Yes. If you can't do this for me, then there can't be an us." He left after that. Ahsoka was feeling a mixture of emotions: anger, guilt, frustration, but most of all pain and sadness. Rex just left her and she felt it was her fault. She laid on the bed and buried her head in her pillow. She felt the hot tears fall from her eyes and down her cheek. In a matter of seconds, she was crying her eyes out into her pillow. There was a knock at the door.

"Snips? You in there?" It was Anakin, her master. She didn't want to see anybody at the moment.

"Go away!" Anakin opened the door and came in anyway. He saw his young Padawan lying on her bed practically bawling her eyes out. He sat on the edge of the bed and slowly stroked her back.

"Ahsoka? Ahsoka, what's wrong?"

"Go away, Master. I don't want to talk about it." He could feel the mixture of feelings boiling inside the young girl.

"Ahsoka, talk to me. I'm your master and your friend. You can tell me anything. What's wrong?" She looked up at him with bloodshot eyes and tear stained cheeks. "What happened?"

"Rex is what happened."

"Rex?" Anakin was confused by this.

"Rex and I have been together for a year. Today was our anniversary."

"Did he forget?" She sat up.

"No, but he broke up with me."

"What? Why?"

"Because I wasn't ready to have sex with him. He said that a year was more than enough time to be ready and... I just can't..." She started to cry again. Anakin pulled her towards him and hugged her. She buried her face in his chest and cried. He gently stroked her montrals.

"It's okay. It's okay, Ahsoka. You're too good for Rex and he was too ignorant to see how stupid he was to leave you. It's his loss." She pulled her head out of his shoulder and looked up at him.

"You're not mad?"

"Mad? Why would I be mad?"

"I broke the rules by being with Rex."

"Ahsoka, I'm not mad at you because you broke the rules. I do all the time. You're upset and I'm not going to yell at you. Rex and I are going to have a talk later. Right now, you need a friend." She smiled weakly at him.

"Thank you, Master. You're a great friend." He smiled back at her.

"You're welcome, Snips. Get some rest." He laid her back down and stood up.

"Master?"

"Yeah?"

"Do you mind... staying with me tonight?" He was a little surprised by the quesion, but understood because of how upset she was.

"Sure, Snips." He climbed in her bed and laid next to her. She snuggled up against him. He hesitated, but wrapped his arm around her.

"Goodnight, Skyguy."

"Goodnight, Snips." He soon heard gentle purring from her. He was going to leave after she fell asleep, but he couldn't bring himself to. He just relaxed and drifted to sleep as well.
