Ahsoka Tano's POV
I sat on my chair as my mother served our plates of food. Anakin decided to help her and set them on the table.
My father grinned and by that I could see that he approved my boyfriend. He chatted with him and asked a question that I knew hurt Anakin.
"So, how are your parents like?" he asked, smiling. "I'm sure they're proud to have a son like you."
"Father..." I hissed, frowning directly at him.
Anakin gave me a weary smile; his eyes seemed okay, not a single hint of hurt or anger. "Love, its all right." he winked at me before turning to face my father. "Uh... Well, Mr. Tano... My Mother is dead and I never knew my father."
My mother gasped, she laid her hand over her heart. "Oh my God." she whispered, her face completely taken over by pain and sorrow.
My Father's face was the same as her's but also apologetic. "Anakin, I am so sorry. I didn't -"
Anakin held up one hand to stop him. "It's all right, Sir." he gave him a smile.
My father sighed and glance at Anakin. "Please, Anakin, call me Guillermo."
Anakin beamed, nodding. "Guillermo."
The rest of the night Anakin showed them what his combat skills were like, what I learned, how he and I could use a shoto, his skills of being an artist, and being a musician.
He played the piano for a few minutes, playing 'The Lion Fell In Love with The Lamb' by Carter Burwell, and then played that same song but this time with a guitar.
I sat next to him, watching his fingers move as he played the instruments. I fell in love with such a talented man that at times I always think that I wasn't good enough for him.
"Wow, Anakin." My mother sounded so... Like she didn't believe what just happened. As if he just took her breath away.
"Can you sing?" My father asked.
I smirked once Anakin nodded. "I think so."
"Well, can you sing for us?"
"Do you have a place where there's a band? Like a Karaoke thingy?" he asked.
My mother nodded. "Yeah, there's one an hour away."
"Good... Let's go." my father sounded so excited.
The next hour we drove to a city that was I don't know about 20x larger in population than my small town. My parents and I sat on a table while Anakin went to go a sign up.
I held his hand and smiled once he came back.
Anakin Skywalker's POV
Ahsoka's family and I watched the contestants sing to their favorite songs. Some were pop, which I wasn't a major fan of, some were alternative rock, rap, hip-hop and metal.
A Human twenty year old female began to sing 'Hang On' by Plumb.
She began to sing and I could feel Ahsoka's emotions... mostly all of her sadness.
I'm so stubborn,
That's how I got here.
So Alone.
Feels like forever.
I wanna swim away and breathe the open air.
But I feel so afraid.
Then I hear you say.
Hang on.
When the water is rising.
Hang on.
When the waves are crashing.
Hang on.
Just don't ever let go.
I'm so hungry.
How can I stay here?
Starving.
For what I hold so dear.
Like a hurricane.
It takes everything from me.
Wake me from this dream.
Hang on.
When the water is rising.
Hang on.
When the waves are crashing. Hang on.
Just don't ever let go.
Hang on.
When you're barely breathing. Hang on.
When your heart's still beating. Hang on.
Just don't ever let go.
Three days thirty years.
So hopeless doesn't matter.
Don't say it's too late,
if you blink your eyes the sun is rising.
The sun is rising...whoa!
Oh!
Hang on.
When the water is rising.
Hang on.
When the waves are crashing. Hang on.
Just don't ever let go.
Hang on.
When you're barely breathing. Hang on.
When your heart's still beating. Hang on.
Just don't ever let go!
The crowded applauded as the girl smiled and waved at the crowd.
The host thanked the girl and then announced my name. I got up and went up stage as Carolina, Guillermo and Ahsoka applauded.
I began to play 'Phobia (Intro)' as we thought of what to play.
We finally decided and began to play 'Evil Angel'. The drummer began until we started playing the electric guitars and the bass guitar.
Hold it together.
Birds of a feather.
Nothing but liars and crooked wings.
I have the answer,
Spreading the cancer.
You are the faith inside me.
No, don't leave me to die here.
Help me survive here.
Alone, I don't remember.
Remember.
Put me to sleep,
Evil Angel.
Open your wings,
Evil Angel.
A-ah.
I'm a believer,
Nothing could be worse.
All these imaginary friends,
Hiding betrayal.
Driving the nail.
Hoping to find a savior.
No, don't leave me to die here.
Help me survive here.
Alone, I don't surrender.
Surrender!
Put me to sleep,
Evil Angel.
Open your wings,
Evil Angel.
Oh.
Fly over me,
Evil Angel!
Why can't I breathe?
Evil Angel?
We continued playing the instruments for a few seconds before the lights dimmed through 2:51 to 2:55 and then the lights began to strobe.
Put me to sleep,
Evil Angel.
Open your wings,
Evil Angel.
Oh.
Fly over me,
Evil Angel.
Why can't I breathe?
Evil Angel?
We continued playing until I stopped and the crowd applauded. I bowed and went back to Ahsoka.
She smiled at me and leaned against my arm. "You didn't tell me you could sing..."
"What about yesterday?" I said.
"You only sang a couple of lines of a song... I didn't know you could sing and play the guitar at the same time... Especially in front of a crowd."
"Eh," I shrugged, holding her closer to me. "You were here so that took all the nervousness I had in me."
She rolled her eyes and laughed.
Ahsoka Tano's POV
Once we made it back home, my little ten year old brother was watching a cartoon... Minding his own business.
'I smell the smelly smell of something that smells smelly.' was all I heard from the HoloTv.
Anakin and I went to bed in our... Separate rooms. I couldn't sleep so I went downstairs to my mother.
"Mother, what are you watching?" I asked, sitting down on the couch next to her.
"Oh, the Togruta voted already for the new president but now they disapprove him and want him out of office... Even some of the Togruta colored out the red and green out of our flag to black..."
I looked down. "Maybe they're against something... That the President is doing." I suggested.
She nodded. "Well, that may be true, CariƱo." she kissed my forehead before getting up. "Well, I'm going to bed."
"All right, mother. Goodnight." I smiled weakly as she went upstairs.
