I walked outside and sat down on a log as the sun rose, it was still early in the morning; Master Qui Gon had left earlier to check for any more bounty hunters and told me he would be back in a few hours, so I was left to guard the duchess. I did not mind watching over her, she was a very beautiful and innocent woman, who always seemed to talk, which was not a bad thing either, if she was going to be the duchess of Mandalore then her opinions would need to be heard.

I felt the log move and I looked straight into her beautiful, big, blue eyes, she smiled at me and I smiled back, "What are you doing up so early Satine?" I asked, she had told me to call her by her first name so I did, "Enjoying the warmth of the sun and the beauty of the world." She said dreamily and I sat there admiring the way that the sun shone on her face. She turned to me, "Obi Wan, I have heard your Master talk about the Jedi Code, what is it?" she questioned and my eyebrows rose, the code, well I could not tell her too much about it, but I was not surprised that she had heard of it, Master Qui Gon had been reminding me of the code ever since we started this mission. "The Jedi Code is a set of laws that the Jedi have to follow," I started, "They are all incredibly important and strict and the most important one of all is not to form attachments." I told her and she seemed sad momentarily. "So if I asked you to kiss me …" She trailed off as she went bright red and I was sure that I did too. "Then I would have to decline." I replied, she nodded and looked as if she understood but she still looked sad.

Then suddenly I caught a mysterious glint in her eyes, "Master Qui Gon told you that you have to do anything and everything that I order you to do," she said, this was correct, Master Qui Gon had decided that I should respect the duchess, especially as I seemed to be the one spending the most time with her. "So if I ordered you to kiss me …" She trailed off and a massive smile appeared on my face, "Then I would have to agree, only if you ordered though." I told her casually, hoping that she would because I had had a secret crush on this stunning woman since the moment that I met her, and my feelings for her grew and grew every time we fought, every time she laughed, every time she even looked my way I felt slightly closer to her than I had before. She looked me dead on in the eye to show me that she was telling me the truth, "I order you to kiss me then … if you want to." She whispered and I soon found my lips on hers which tasted of honey and flowers, "I love you." She murmured quietly, "I love you too." I murmured back.
