Chapter 3- Hitting It Off -Part one

Ashoka's P.O.V-

We filed onto the ship, and sat down. We lowered our restrictors and took off. The maids were giving me curious looks, and Padme was still talking with Mina. I stared into space, letting my mind blank out and my body relax, until I heard a certain name being mentioned….

"…Lux? Oh, he's doing fine my dear. Top of his class in school. He has a very bright future ahead of him. I hope he goes into politics like myself, nut unfortunately I think he's leaning toward a military career like his father."

"Military? That means that there's a chance that I may fight him in the future…" I felt my heart sink, my throat tighten, and my mouth dry up. "Come ON! You're a Jedi! You should have better control over yourself! You haven't even met the guy yet and you are already falling for him! Get a hold of yourself!"

But I couldn't for more than 5 minutes at a time. I soon found myself slipping back into a daydream, picturing him as my perfect guy. That's when I snapped out of it. There was NO way he was THAT perfect. I had to think realistically here. There had to be some fault with him…. Besides the fact that he was a Separatist. I felt a warm hand suddenly come down on my shoulder and I jumped, I can't be sensing movements like that all the time.

"Were you that deep in thought? Sorry Ashoka but we're here."

It was just Padme. I sighed.

"It's okay. I should have been paying more attention to my surroundings."

"You sure you're fine?"

"Yep." I flashed her a smile to try and back up my statement. I stood up. "Just a bit tired from the trip, that's all." I flashed another grin and made my way over to where our luggage was secured. I swear I caught Tina giving me a concerned look.

"Yeah, well, she's another story to explore another time. Waxer and Boil? Why would she be so concerned about them? She's on the side trying to kill them! Why would she care about a Republic Solider, especially a clone! Some JEDI don't even appreciate them giving up their lives for the Republic."

The ramp lowered, and I took a deep breath and followed Padme out of the ship to meet Lux for the first time.

"Lux come down here and help our guests with their luggage please," I heard Mina call out.

I was looking around, observing the platform to see if I could spot Lux anywhere. Then, I saw him walking down the stairs to the platform. My heart skipped a beat, fluttered then sprang to life again, thumping four times too hard. I frowned not liking, yet liking, the feeling that this boy was giving me. I had to be cautious; I still didn't know what he was like.

I saw Mina give Padme a one armed hug. She said something, but my blood was pounding too hard in my ears to hear what she said. Then I saw Lux walk up to Padme. I heard his voice loud and clear.

"Please, allow me." He gave a slight bow when he said that, and took her luggage. Then he saw me. He gave this kind of look that I really couldn't describe. I halfway felt like he was examining me. I did yet didn't like it. "May I?"

He practically dove for my luggage, his hand brushed up against mine. It sent an electric shock up my spine. I snatched my hand away, still unsure of him.

"I think I can handle it." I glared at him and frowned, observing every detail of him. It was confusing. He seemed pretty polite and nice. His green eyes just melted my heart away. His eyes met my glare. He didn't back down, he didn't even flinch at my glare. I continued to walk, following Padme and Mina, Lux following me. The maids? Force knows where they went.

Mina led us up to two rooms across from each other. My room was to the left, Padme's to the right. Lux handed Padme her luggage, bowed and left, I saw his eyes dart and linger on me as he walked away out of the corner of my eye. Again it sent a tingle up my spine.

My room was nice, a lot nicer than what I was used to on the Resolute and Jedi Temple. It had a high ceiling, a canopy bed. The wall was pained a grayish blue color, and the door to the walk in closet would have been completely concealed if it wasn't for a control panel to the side. The bedding on bed was a bright white, along with a bright white chair and desk, and couch in the corner. There was a walk out balcony with a weaved and weather worn chair and potted plants. The room was pretty and tastefully decorated. But what was really breathtaking was the scenery that I saw as I stepped out on the balcony. There was a knock at the door and I turned to see who it was as the door opened, just Padme.

"Ashoka? I'm going down with Mina to talk and have a drink or two, would you like to join us?"

Short I know. The next part will be their conversation in the garden. It should be up in about a week, give or take a few days. It may even be over the weekend if I don't have much homework... To tell you the truth I dont even know exactly. Keep the maids in mind they MIGHT serve as bigger characters in the story... MIGHT.

PLease Read and Review I luv to kno wat you all think!
