Secret Flame Ch. 7
The next morning the landing areas were full of hustle and bustle. The Resolute was getting loaded and Anakin was helping Barriss give her star fighter a tune up.
R2 was standing off to the side of the two jedi and was handing them tool as they asked for them. Denal was up early that morning for an early shave. At that moment Colt walked into the room.
"Getting rid of your whiskers old boy?"asked Colt
"That and I am thinking whether or not to dye my hair blue or to just leave it black."replied Denal.
"Now why would you want to dye your hair blue?"asked Colt hoping to get something out of it
"Well I promised Ahs...uh...I mean I lost a bet."stuttered Denal.
"You lost a bet?"said Colt in disbelief
"Hey it was either this or take a trip to the local gay bar!"returned Denal
"OK lets dye that hair then shall we!"said Colt shocked by the remark

Back in the landing bay of the Resolute Anakin and Barriss were finishing up with her fighter. It was a black fighter with different shades of green mixed in with it.
"That should do it hon."said Anakin
"Ani its perfect. You have such a good knack with machines."she said as she leaned down and kissed him.
Her lips were so soft to the touch that he could have stayed frozen in that position. The kiss was a short bit of pleasure for the both of them. She broke off the kiss to Anakin's disappointment. Barriss was rather reluctant to break off the kiss but Ahsoka had walked into the room and was shocked at what she had seen.
"Master...Barriss...wha...you...whats going on here?"asked Ahsoka
"Oh c'mon Snips this isn't the worst thing you've caught me doing."said Anakin
"No Anakin I can expect this kind of behavior from you but Barriss? I thought we were friends. How could you do this and live with not telling me?"said Ahsoka
"Well Ahs..."
"I don't care to hear it and I don't care to see you anymore. Stay away from me! I HATE YOU BARRISS OFFEE!"screamed Ahsoka as she ran off toward the engine room.
