I do not own these characters except for some, Collin, Aaron, Anna, Jurny. I'm not making any money out of this, bla, bla, bla, etc. Ok, hope you enjoy my story.
Let's see, this is my first story about Anakin and Amidala. Anakin tries to explain to the readers how his relationship with Amidala started.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Tell me, Skywalker, do you really enjoy being a pawn?"
Amidala had called me a pawn. But what did she mean by that?
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I do not understand---"
She had cut me off.
"Don't call me that! Not in private, Ani."
I have forgotten again. She hated it when I referred to her as "Your Highness". It was either I called her "Amidala" or her nickname, "Ami". I prefer calling her Amidala. "Ami" was way too informal, or at least that's what the council has told me.
"I'm sorry, Amidala."
She rolled her eyes. Obviously she didn't believe I was sorry. And I'm not. I was always told to call her that and I will when at her presence. Except now. I'm afraid Amidala might just explode if I called her "Your Highness". That would not be good.
"Answer my question, Ani. Do you really enjoy being controlled by these Jedi? I thought you were already freed from slavery."
So that's what she meant by me being a "Pawn". Why is Amidala acting like this?
"Amidala, this is far different from slavery and you know that. Becoming a Jedi has always been a dream of mine. The Jedi didn't force me into this. I asked for it. I left my home and my mother, just to become a Jedi, yet you are not...proud of me?"
I walked closer to her, waiting for an answer. She did not look at me. She was...sad? Why would she be sad?
"The Jedi have warned you to stay away from me, haven't they? They don't want us together. Anakin, you can't let them keep controlling your emotions for me."
That's why she was sad. She wanted us together. And so did I. God knows I do. Everyone knows I do! She's right, though. The Jedi didn't want us together. Neither did the Naboo people at first, but after all that Amidala and I have gone through, they understood why we should be together. We loved each other dearly. Amidala is my life, without her, I'm nothing. I slowly moved closer to her until our bodies were touching. It was time. I looked into her eyes, those oh so beautiful eyes, moved one of my hands to gently caress her lips, then made my move. Slowly, we moved to the bed. Our breathing became rapid as I unbuttoned---
Wait a second. Do you actually think I'm going to let you guys in on what happened before I even tell you how we ended up together? No way! Our story is way too sweet to not be told. So here it is:
As you all may already know, Amidala and I first met on Tatooine. I knew we were meant to be together from the very first moment that I saw her. How did I know? Well, I don't really KNOW that we were meant to be together. I just had a feeling. You guys know what happens after that and all the way until the celebration. Now let me tell you what has happened with our relationship starting from that celebration. Unfortunately, Amidala saw my care for her as just a simple little childish crush and nothing more. Well, before the celebration, Amidala and I got together for a private talk. Obi-Wan and I couldn't stay back for the reception because the Jedi were to leave for Coruscant right after the parade. She looked so beautiful in that white gowned. She would yell at me for playing with the feathers. Hey, it was my last day here, so I made sure I had some fun before I left. We said our goodbyes, said that we'd see each other again, stuff like that. I wasn't able to tell her the one thing I really wanted to tell her, that I...I, um...care for her. Jeez, I couldn't even say the word. Well, that was probably because I was only nine years young!
During the parade, Amidala turned to look at me. I tried to give her a slyish smile. Thank the force that I did. For the first time, she blushed at my smile. Can you believe it? My smile! A nine-year-olds smile. She smiled back. It was a glorious day. Well, it wasn't all that glorious. I was still mourning from Qui-Gon's death. He was like a father to me, without him, I had no one. My mother was gone and I wasn't so sure that I'd see Amidala again. Obi-Wan said he would always be there for me when I needed him, which comforted me, but still, it didn't seem enough.
When the parade was over, I walked with Obi-Wan and the other Jedi's to a ship which would bring us back to Coruscant, where I would begin a whole new life as a Jedi apprentice to Obi-Wan Kenobi. I was very surprised to see that Pad...I mean Amidala was walking towards us.
"Jedi Kenobi!" She yelled out.
Obi-Wan and I turned to face her.
"May a have a word with Anakin?"
Obi-Wan nodded his head and left me alone with Amidala.
"I know we already said our goodbyes, Ani, but I..."
She started crying as she gave me a hug.
"I'm going to miss you, Ani."
I couldn't believe it! The queen was crying over me! Boy do I feel special.
"Goodbye, Ani."
"Goodbye...Padme."
I just had to say it. It was the first name I had ever called her and had believed was really hers. She smiled and released me. I turned around and walked up the ship ramp. Just like Padme did back on Tatooine, I didn't turn around. I knew that if I did, I would've started crying like crazy.
**************************************************************************************
Let's see, five years has past. Sad thing is I wasn't able to see Padme within those five years, nor was I able to speak with her. I've dedicated those five years into my training. I trained from morning 'til bedtime. Obi-Wan said that I should sleep very early so that I would grow, unlike him. He was teasing his self. I thank Obi-Wan for making me sleep early. Why? Because I have grown. Grown to be about the same height as Obi-Wan was and at the age of fourteen. Let's just see if Padme still thinks of me as a little boy the next time we meet. And we would meet sooner than I had ever expected. Obi-Wan and I, along with many other Jedi, were invited to attend Naboo's annual Winter Festival. Winter. Oh how I hated winter. As you all know, I was raised from a warm planet, a very warm planet, so I'm still not used to the coldness. Coruscant's winters were mild. On Naboo, well, IT'S FREEZING COLD! That's what I've heard. But even though it would be cold, I didn't care, well, much. See, Naboo had tons of snow, so I would be able to play in the snow with all my Jedi friends. I'd ask Amidala to join, but I don't really think she would. She's a queen, and she's nineteen years old. Besides, Obi-Wan said to kind of keep away from her. He feels that Amidala will jeopardize my training. I can't disobey Obi-Wan, he's my master, so I guess the only thing I could do is keep away from her. If I can.
**************************************************************************************
"Keep your hood up, Anakin, and stay close to me." Obi-Wan said.
We finally arrived on Naboo. Obi-Wan said to stay close to him, so that's what I did. We were showed to our guestrooms. Unlike the other Jedi, Mine and Obi-Wan's rooms were inside the palace. The other Jedi were brought to a hotel near the palace. I'm guessing Amidala was the one who had arranged these rooms for us. They were beautiful, but Obi-Wan didn't approve of them. He said they were to sophisticate for us. Damn Obi-Wan. Why couldn't he just accept the special treatment just once? I preferred to stay. I'm tired of sleeping in such bad quarters.
"Padawan, you know this is inappropriate."
I knew I had that coming. "Inappropriate", I hate that word. Everything Amidala seemed to offer us was inappropriate. She treated us like royalty. Nice rooms, great food, great service, things I never expected to ever get, but have always wanted, Amidala offered. Did she only do this because she thought she owed us for saving her planet? I'm guessing that's what Obi-Wan was thinking. Why couldn't he just think of this as a friendly gift from Amidala? Amidala thought of us as friends of hers. I was sure of that. We ended up keeping the room after all. Obi-Wan had a change of mind and just accepted the room. Obi-Wan and I got dressed to join everyone outside for the Winter Festival. There were games, entertainment, snow sports, and many other things outside. It was beautiful. Children were playing in the snow. I spotted a few of my Jedi friends, Aaron, Collin, Anna, and Jurny. I joined them and left Obi-Wan with Master Windu.
"What took you so long, Ani?" Collin asked.
I walked up to him and said, "Master Kenobi was still debating over the room."
"Oh." He replied.
"Common guys, stop talking and let's play!" Aaron said.
Aaron and Anna had already started chasing each other with snowballs. I grabbed some snow and threw it at Collin. Jurny hit me from behind. It was a fun day. I thought I saw Anna so I threw I snowball at her. Someone tapped me from behind. I turned around. I was surprised. Anna was behind me.
"Anna, but you're over the--- then who did I hit?"
I was in for another surprise. The girl I had hit turned around and revealed herself. It was Amidala!
more to come soon, I promise. sorry about other fanfic, I lost my work for that, but I will post the rest of my story on my site.
