"Anakin, I have to leave!"
"No, you don't! Listen, Padme isn't even there for me right now! We had an argument last week, and she left for her home in Naboo until I can straighten out all of the work I have!"
"But, Anakin, I have a mission to do for the Jedi Council in Polis Massa!"
"When are you leaving?"
"Early tomorrow morning. Before the sun rises."
"Well, since my apartment is closer to the ship dock, would you like to stay in our spare room tonight?"
"Anakin, let me think about this logically for a moment."
Even though Anakin was married to Padme, some deep feeling in his chest kept telling him that Obi-Wan was "the one". Over time, that monster kept growing until Anakin found out that being near his desire kept the monster at bay. At first, he felt guilty for feeling this way for another man, but sooner or later, Anakin realized that he always had feelings for Obi-Wan. Ever since the day that he laid eyes on him for the first time.
"Uh, Anakin?"
"Oh, what? Sorry, Master. I've had a lot of things on my mind for a while."
"Maybe you are right. I'll stay with you until I leave because of the state you're in. Maybe I could make some food to make you feel a little better."
Obi-Wan was right. He needed a good meal. Since Padme left, all he's had was a bottle of tequila and too many loaves of bread, and she's only been gone for a week.
"Let's go, Master."
Once Anakin and his master arrive in his apartment, Obi-Wan admires the delicate detail taken in every piece of ebony leather-coated furniture and scrap of pristine, white and gold molding in the room. The gentle maroon walls with an ivory swirl enveloping imaginary objects in the room captivated him with all of their detail. It must have taken years to paint this room, let alone the rest of the house!
"Oh, admiring the walls, I see. Padme and I paid for a good friend of hers back on Naboo to do this for us. Do you like it?"
"...I love it... It's so beautiful..."
Anakin said under his breath, "Just like you-..."
"What did you say, Anakin? Just like me...?"
"Obi-Wan..."
"Anakin, you know the rules. We can't be in a committed relationship. And besides, you're MARRIED! That counts as a committed relationship!"
"But they never said if two people with the same gender could. It states that an individual male or female Jedi Council member may not have a sexual or committed relationship with a member of the opposite sex. The Jedi Council, no offense, has a very narrow view of our society."
"You are right... But I cannot defy my own moral obligation."
"Your own moral- Whatthehellareyoutalkingabout?!"
"Anakin, I was just joking! Hahaha, you are so naive and impulsive!"
"SonnuvabitchI'llgetyou!"
With Obi-Wan's harsh statement ringing freshly in Anakin's ears, they chased each other from the living room to the bedroom. Once they rushed into the bedroom, Obi Wan tripped on one of Anakin's shoes and fell face-first onto the bed. Anakin arrived shortly after he tripped and flipped him over so he could be nearer to his beloved's face. Straddling his hips, Anakin timidly looks down.
"What happened to your cocky remark about you getting me?"
"To be honest, I thought I'd never get this far... I never planned out the rest of what I was going to do after I had you to myself."
"Ah, you wild daydreamer..."
After Anakin looked back up, all he could see at the moment was his master's gleaming smile and glowing complexion as he pressed his timid lips on Anakin's warm, tender ones................
