Please note: This is my first ever songfic, so please be nice about it.
Also, I don't own either the song by Savage Garden or Star Wars.
I knew I loved you
Anakin Solo walked into the training hall in the Jedi Academy on Yavin IV. He wandered around the hall, not really doing very much at all. There were older people stood around making conversation, and he could see his brother and sister nearby with other Jedi students. He looked around to see if anyone wasn't indulged in talking to somebody else.
Maybe it's intuition
Some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future and amidst it
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy but I believe
Off in a corner, Anakin caught sight of a girl about his height. She had long, golden hair, green eyes and, he noticed with a somewhat amused look, bare feet. He walked up to her, noticing she was totally alone. He kept a straight face as he looked at her. She looked straight back at him, and in that instant, something passed between them.
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you here tonight
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
"I'm Anakin Solo," he said finally, offering his hand to her.
The girl shifted somewhat, smiled a little, and took his hand in hers.
"Tahiri Veila. Are you going to be a Jedi too?"
"Sure am. Where is it you're from, Tahiri?"
"Tatooine."
There's just no rhyme or reason
Only a sense of completion
And in your eyes, I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for, I think I found my way home
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy but I believe
"I was scared when I thought I lost you on Yavin IV."
She was silent, and Anakin lost his read on her, but he suddenly felt her shoulders quivering and knew she was crying.
Reluctantly, he reached his arm around her.
"I'm sorry," she sobbed. "I got you into this. Corran's right – I keep thinking I can be like you, and I'm not. You always win, and I always screw up. If it wasn't for me, you'd be back on the Errant Venture right now."
"But I'd rather be here with you." Anakin said
He couldn't see her face turn toward him or see the widening emeralds of her eyes, but he knew they were there.
"Don't say things like that," she murmured. "I know you think I'm still a little kid. I –"
She stopped, very suddenly, when he found her face with his fingers. Her cheek was smooth and cold. He found a stray lock of hair across her eyebrow and traced lightly over the raised scars on her forehead. Anakin rarely did things he didn't know he was going to do. But it never occurred to him that he was going to kiss Tahiri until his lips were already touching hers.
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you here tonight
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I found you
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you here tonight
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you here tonight
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I knew I loved you
I knew I loved you before I met you
I knew I loved you
I knew I loved you before I met you
I knew I loved you
