Part 2: I Only Have Eyes For You
A/N: As I write this, ff.net is not responding to my computer so I don't know what you guys think so far. But I hope you like it. This chapter is the Humor/Romance chapter. WARNING: This chapter is considerably silly. Just want to warn you. It's meant to be that way.

His finger stopped on a track somewhere in the middle of the list. Anakin listened to the sample for a moment, his lips curling into a mischievous grin.
He had found the perfect song.

Back at their booth, Padmé silently recalled the events of the past weeks. When she arrived in Coruscant, she never knew she'd be reunited with the little boy she first met on Tatooine just 10 years before. She never knew he'd be so handsome, and that they'd fall in love. Now she was sitting in a random club on a tiny planet in between her home and Coruscant, watching the little boy (who wasn't so little anymore), her husband, prepare to perform a song.
Anakin grasped the sleek amplifying device and found Padmé in the corner. Their gazes locked, and he grinned. A melody started to play from the speakers behind him, and he glanced at the screen.
A human man, maybe in his forties, appeared on the screen. His hat was slightly tipped forward and he wore a pinstriped suit, fashion that Anakin had never seen before. He took a deep breath and the words came on the screen.
WITCHCRAFT
By Frank Sinatra
ORIGIN: Planet Earth of Milky Way System
Those fingers in my hair
That sly come-hither stare
That strips my conscience bare
It's witchcraft
Anakin looked up from the screen and saw Padmé staring intently at him. He imitated the man on the screen as he sang. This caused Padmé to giggle like she was a young school girl. Anakin was glad she was relaxed.
And I've got no defense for it
The heat is too intense for it
What good would common sense for it do?
Padmé noticed the area in front of the stage filling with giggly girls in skimpy outfits. But Anakin only broke his gaze with her to glance at the words on the screen.
He only had eyes for her.
'cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft
And although I know it's strictly taboo
When you arouse the need in me
My heart says yes, indeed in me
proceed with what you're leading me to
Padmé sighed, being reminded of how much trouble they'd be in if anyone found out. She knew that Master Yoda might already know what was going on, he could read thoughts pretty well. Oh how true were the words Anakin sang in such a mockingly way.
It's such an ancient pitch
But one I wouldn't switch
'cause there's no nicer witch than you
Padmé laughed as the song ended and Anakin took a dramatic bow.
"What are we going to do?" she asked, once Anakin was back at their booth.
"I don't want to think about it right now," he responded. Anakin gave her one of his looks and before they knew it, they were sharing a long kiss. Padmé ran her fingers through his short, sandy hair as he pulled her closer. The kiss lasted for a while…at least until someone nearby cleared his throat and the lovers looked up.
"Captain Typho?!"
…to be continued.
