"I don't know if I can do it," Anakin sighed. He stood up, and so did she.
"I know we can get through this. You can trust me."
Anakin sighed, exhausted. He thought that maybe he could tell her his secret. Anakin turned toward Ahsoka and said,"Ahsoka, I trust you. I trust you with my life. What I'm about to tell you stays between us."
"I won't tell a soul," she promised.
"Let's start from the beginning. You know that I joined the Jedi Order at a very young age. I won a podrace and was freed from slavery-"
"Wait a second! You were a slave?"
"Um, yeah. Once I was freed I went to Courosant. I joined the Jedi Order. Then, when I was about nineteen, um, I had to protect Senator Amidala. And um, we errr…."
"You…what?"
"I fell in love with Padme'. And she fell in love with me. We got married in secret after the Battle of Geonisis. Then, while I was on a battle tour, she cheated on me. And now we're divorced."
Anakin and Ahsoka looked at each other in silence. Ahsoka looked at the ground nervously, fidgeting with her fingers.
" I have something to tell you, too" She said nervously. "I-I um, when I first met you I thought you were stupid and reckless. But know, one I got to know you, I um, I think, um, that I love you."
Anakin's blue eyes widened as she said it. She was about to talk when Anakin put two of his gloved fingers on her lips. She looked up at him. His face was flushed, and so was hers. At that moment she realized he felt the same way. He leaned downwards and she leaned upwards.
Their lips touched and Anakin's strong arms wrapped around her waist. Her arms wrapped around his neck, twirling his hair in her fingers. Their lips parted and Ahsoka smiled.
