A/N Hi everyone how are you ? This story will be my first fan fic . It's inspired by the fan fic entitled "Blind Date" by Jedi Jesi Jiin. Please check it out someday. Anyway, I hope everyone enjoys my new story and please be nice with your reviews. This is my first time after all.
Disclaimer: I don't own "Star Wars". It's the property of Disney, George Lucas, and Lucasfilms. If I did own it, Anakin wouldn't become Vader, Padme wouldn't die, Luke and Leia would be reared by their parents on Naboo, Ashoka wouldn't leave the Jedi Order, and the Jedi Order would allow love and attachments. But I don't. Just playing in their sandbox.
Chapter One
After having spent another long, stressful day at her office, Chancellor Padme Naberrie Skywalker of the Galactic Republic was heading to her home at 500 Republica, the home she shared with her husband Anakin and their 11 year old twins, Luke and Leia. Anakin was currently with Obi-Wan on Corellia conducting diplomatic negotiations while Leia was visiting her aunt and cousins on Naboo. Luke was at home.
Ever since becoming Chancellor of the Galactic Republic 11 years ago, Padme's life was constantly busy and she hardly ever had time for herself. There were times when she wished she could just get away from it all, but Padme knew that her duty to the Republic was more important. That didn't mean she wouldn't enjoy a long moment of fun and relaxation if the opportunity ever arose. All of these thoughts passed through Padme's mind as she got closer to her home, and she decided then and there that after coming home and eating dinner with her son, she was going to curl up in bed and read her favorite holo novel.
When Padme finally arrived home to her apartment at 500 Republica, she found her handmaidens Sabe and Dorme waiting outside the door. The handmaidens were wearing conspiratorial smiles and holding a blindfold.
"Welcome home M'lady", Dorme said smiling as she stepped forward to greet her mistress, "you've arrived just in time."
Needless to say, Padme was both curious as to why her handmaidens were standing outside the door instead of waiting inside like they usually did, and was puzzled as to what they meant about her arriving in time. And what was with the strange smiles and blindfold the handmaidens were sporting ? Before Padme could inquire as to what the heck was going on and why her handmaidens were acting the way they were, Sabe spoke up next.
"It has recently been brought to our attention that you've been working very hard in your job as Chancellor and haven't had a chance to enjoy yourself due to your busy schedule, so we have decided to put together a special evening which we're sure you'll enjoy."
Sabe then moved so that she stood directly in front of Padme and held out the blindfold.
"Since what we have planned for you is a surprise, you'll have to wear this around your eyes until the moments we tell you to remove it."
At this point, Padme was really confused and trying to figure out what was happening. She had come home with the intention of having a quit, relaxing night with her son, yet here were her two handmaidens standing in front of her and telling her about a surprise they'd arranged. A sudden thought then struck her mind.
"Is Anakin responsible for whatever you two have planned, and where is Luke?"
Padme knew that Anakin should still be on Corellia with Obi-Wan, but maybe their mission had been concluded earlier than anticipated and Anakin decided to come home early and surprise her.
"Don't worry M'lady", Sabe answered her mistress, "all of your questions will be answered shortly. For now, please allow Dorme and myself to place this blindfold around your eyes and escort you to your bedroom. That is where the first aspect of your surprise is located. I promise you that this will all be worth your while."
It was at this moment that Padme realized she wouldn't be receiving any answers to her questions until she went along with whatever her handmaidens were up to. So with a shrug and a nod of accent on Padme's part, Sabe lifted up the blindfold and wrapped it around Padme's eyes. Afterwards, she and Dorme placed their hands on her arms and escorted her to her bedroom.
