Dream Plane: (reply to your review on Pregnancy Hormones: glad you liked it! I had a lot of fun writing it! If you like stories about their home life, you're in for a treat because I'm planning on writing a Modern AU all about their home life. After I drew a really cute modern pic of them in the rain, I got inspiration for this new story. Also, a story called Naboo in Winter by QueenMimi96 is really cute and funny! I also wrote a story called Moments in Time that you might like!) Obi and Ani reply: I get hot, so 65-70 is my comfortable range, so that's why the temp was only 75 XD. I'm sure it will be getting turned up quite often until Ani adjusts, XD!
El Droide: (reply to your review on Pregnancy Hormones: haha Padmé was being adorable, I agree. I loved writing it and I'm glad you enjoyed!) Obi and Ani reply: No way is little Anakin annoying; he's so cute! Phantom Menace is my second favorite movie, my first being Attack of the Clones.
Star Wars and Skillet: glad you liked it!
Rilme Caatl: ooh I'm looking forward to your new story! You'll have to let me know when it comes out! I'm so happy you're enjoying this story!
Ahhh, I'm so sorry this took forever! Ugh, I just couldn't get my head in the game! I forced myself to write it for you guys, so it might not be as up to standard as it should be :(.
First Experience with Rain
Ten-year-old Anakin Skywalker peeked out the window of the lodge they were staying at, astonished to see individual droplets of water falling from the sky. He stared in shock. He had never seen so much water at once before. And now it was just falling. No one was running out to catch it, to savor it. No one was worried about running out of water. Because here it was: falling from the sky in an endless stream.
"What are you looking at?" Obi-Wan asked, coming from the small kitchen.
"The water! It just falls and falls and nobody goes to get it cause they know it's not going to run out." Anakin's eyes were bright with happiness as he explained. "Master? Can we go out there?"
It suddenly occured to Obi-Wan that Anakin had never seen rain before.
"I don't see why not," Obi-Wan said, setting his mug of half-drunk tea on the table. "Come, into your robe and boots now."
Anakin scrambled to obey, hurriedly pulling his boots on his feet so he could go out in the falling water. He ran out the door, shoving his arms into his robe as he went.
"Anakin! Slow down!" Obi-Wan called after him as he struggled into his boots. But Anakin had already thrown open the door to the outside and dashed into the rain, the droplets soaking him from head to toe. Obi-Wan raced after the energetic ten-year-old, tugging his hood over his head.
"Woohoo!" Anakin laughed, spreading his arms and spinning in a circle. Obi-Wan watched from underneath the safety of his hood, smiling as the little boy jumped and splashed in puddles, threw his robe to the ground, paused to catch the water in his mouth, among other things. "This is amazing!" Anakin cried, looking up at the sky. "Master, come on!" Anakin ran back to Obi-Wan and grabbed his hand, pulling him to a large puddle and then jumping in, drenching Obi-Wan's bottom half.
Obi-Wan, instead of scolding, leapt into the air, and came down hard in the puddle, drenching the small boy head to toe.
"Master!" Anakin yelled as he wiped water off his face.
"What?" Obi-Wan asked innocently, cocking his head to the side.
"That's not fair! You're so much bigger than me!"
"Oh yes it is, my young Padawan. You're the one who dragged me out here in the first place." Obi-Wan tousled the boy's hair. "Now, let's go inside before you catch cold."
Anakin sniffled as if on cue as Obi-Wan ushered him back into the lodge.
"Don't blame me if you get sick, little boy. Rain will do that to you." Obi-Wan opened the door and held it open. Anakin ducked under his arm and went inside.
"What did you call it?" He asked, giving one last glance at the falling water before walking back down the hall to their quarters.
"Rain," Obi-Wan replied as he stripped himself and Anakin of their drenched robes. Tossing them aside, he bent to unbuckle his boots.
"I think that's my new favorite word," Anakin said thoughtfully, sneezing once. "Master? Can I please go back out there?"
Obi-Wan contemplated that question for a moment. "Alright," he said finally. "But it's not my fault if you get too cold and wet and you catch cold."
"Okay!" Anakin said happily, racing back outside. Obi-Wan watched him through the window for a while, until the little bot finally came back inside for dinner.
And wouldn't you know, the next morning, a certain little Padawan emerged from his bedroom with a scratchy throat, dry eyes and a snotty nose.
Obi-Wan bit back an "I told you so" as Anakin sneezed.
