Like Master, Like Padawan
Chapter One: What She Feels
Disclaimer: I own NOTHING but the words in this story.
AUTHOR'S NOTE: I've written many Star Wars: The Clone Wars fan fictions; this is just the first one I've put online. I hope you enjoy. And If you are NOT a fan of Barriss/Cody, Luxsoka, Obitine, or Anidala, then don't read dipstick! (though if you know what dipstick actually means it's not entirely an insult, but if you don't know then it's entirely an insult. Lol) Oh! And shout out to my friend AhsokaTano141516! (boy, you have a long name! Lol!) Thanks for your review. The story which you should DEFINITELY read is Back To Raxus which is by the author previously mentioned.
She knew, from the very first time she met him, that there was something different and unique about him, something that set him apart from the other clone troopers; at least, there was to her. Like her, he was a rule follower; he wouldn't bend or break a rule unless absolutely necessary. That was one thing about him. Then there were his eyes. She only had the chance to look into his eyes for longer than a brief meeting of gazes a handful of times. If she had to give his eyes an overall description, she'd say they were chocolate brown; but she knew from those handful of times of really looking into them that they turned a different shade of brown for every different emotion. There was a certain type of brown that was frequently painted across his eyes; it was a glow like that from a burning flame; it was a look that most experienced clone troopers had, but she had never seen it so strongly before she met him. It showed his willingness to do anything for a brother or an innocent in need and/or in trouble and to do anything to protect and never fail his general. Those were some of the things that qualified on his necessary-to-break-the-rules list. If someone would listen and promise to never tell, she could talk all day about just his eyes, but really, who has that kind of time? Certainly not her. But his eyes weren't the only part about him that she frequently found herself thinking and even daydreaming about. He certainly had a heart of gold, there was no doubt about that. She'd seen him put himself in harm's way to help a fallen and injured clone trooper and get him to safety. She remembered how her heart would hammer inside her chest as if trying to escape to shield him from the enemy fire. Then there was his body that had to made of steel. She'd never seen him pick up anything he wasn't able to carry, and he wasn't picking up tiny mouse droids either. She remembered how he had once carried three troopers to safety. There was also the time a few of the higher ranked clones, after a few drinks, had decided to have a "weight lifting contest", and the man she had spoiled her eyes with looking at and spoiled her mind with thinking about scooped her and her best friend, easily and effortlessly holding both girls above his head. She blushed furiously, her cheeks turning a deep green while her best friend only smiled and laughed, being her typical carefree, happy self. Everything about him: everything that was him and everything that described him added up to one thing: her downfall. For she knew, from the very first time she had met him, that her heart would forever belong to Clone Commander Cody. She, Padawan Learner Barriss Offee, had fallen in love, and with a clone commander no less.
AUTHOR'S NOTE:
The little scene with the weight-lifting contest is something I made up, but I thought it'd fit. It will also be what I start the story originally off with in chapter three. This next coming chapter is about how Cody feels. And if you're a fan of Luxsoka, Obitine, Anidala, or any mixture of the three don't worry! I am too! I encompass all of my fav shippings (or couples or pairings as I like to call them) in my stories. I will also make a Luxsoka main story too. Or well put it up. Thanks for reading and please review!
