Chapter 10

The sound of tapping on the window woke Padme up rolling over and found the space next to her very empty. Her first thought was Anakin has left again and went into hiding elsewhere because she again had asked Anakin to leave with her and go back to Coruscant. He keeps telling her that he will but so far nothing, and that had been two weeks ago.

" Damn Anakin please still be here on Naboo." Padme said to herself as she also remember him telling that if she nagged him to come back to the Temple with her one more time he will leave Naboo and go somewhere else, and she will never see him again.

Getting up and looking for her clothes and finding them she put them on before going to the kitchen and looking for something to eat for breakfast.

While she looked around she noticed there was a note sitting on the table, picking it up she began to read the note.

" Padme, Malcom asked me to come into work and help him fix a speeder that was brought into the shop on my day off and I will be back home for lunch, love you and see you later." Anakin wrote in the latter.

" Well that's a good sign the he didn't leave." Padme said putting the note back down on the table and found some Nerf strips, and she began to fry them up along with an egg.

Twenty minutes later Padme got her stuff together and then headed home only to find her mother there.

" Hey Padme Master Yoda called and wanted you to call him or Obi-Wan and to let them know when you and Anakin will be coming back to Coruscant." Jobal said as she looked from her sewing that she was working on for a friend.

" Hey mom, oh ok then I guess I will call Obi-Wan then." Padme said going up to her room and closing the door so that way she will not be disturb when talking to the Jedi Master.

Padme kissed her mom on the cheek before going up to her room and closing the door. Going over to the small desk she took out her com-link and put in Obi-Wan's com-link number.

" Obi-Wan here." Obi-Wan answered as he came into his quarters.

" Obi-Wan this is Padme. I'm letting you know Anakin still will not give any date or time he wants to come back with me to Coruscant and before you tell me, yes I know my time here is about to come to an end." Padme sat down in the chair and relaxed some while she was talking to the Jedi Master.

" Ok but you need to be coming back next week so you have to tell Anakin that." Obi-Wan said as he sat down at his desk.

" I understand Master, but there is one problem with that, Anakin told me that if I keep bugging him about leaving he said he will leave but go somewhere else and we will never see again." Padme said as there was a small tap on the door and Jobal came into the room with a cup of tea.

" Then that could be a problem, then I guess it's time for plan B." Obi-Wan said knowing that Anakin will not be to glad to see him.

" Um… what is plan B?" Padme asked nodding thank you to her mom.

" Don't worry about it, I don't even think it will be put in use, well I do have a meeting that I need to get to but I'll talk to you at the end of next week." Obi-Wan said before cutting off his com-link.

" You think that your friend will be going back to Coruscant with you?" Jobal asked as she walked over to the door.

" I don't know mom, thanks for the tea, I think I will meditate for a couple of hours before taking a shower, I have to meet Anakin for lunch." Padme got up from her chair and went over to the bed and grabbing the small bag and pulling out her meditation mat.

" Ok then I'll see you later for dinner and don't forget that it will be at your grandmother's house." Jobal said before leaving the room.

" Great." Padme said sitting down on her mat.

Two hours later Padme got up from her mat and went to the refresher and cleaned up before going back to her room and getting dress.

" Hey daddy it's good to see you this afternoon, well am off but I will be back after lunch." Padme said kissing both her parents before leaving the house and heading into town.

" Hey Padme what can I get you this afternoon for lunch?" Valaree asked as Padme came into the café and sat down in the booth by the window.

" Hey Valaree Jawa Juice and I will wait for my lunch companion." Padme said as she saw the door of the repair shop open up and both Anakin and Malcom stepped out of the shop and began heading for the café.

" Ok, um… let me guess Anakin will be eating with you?" Valaree smiled as she saw Anakin look over to the café and began to smile when he saw Padme sitting in the booth.

" Yes he will be joining me so can you please make that two Jawa Juice." Padme said looking away from the window and smiled up to Valaree.

" Ok two Jawa Juice coming up, and I will give you both a few minutes to figure out what you want for lunch." Valaree said before she walked away from the table and head over to the drink machine.

" Hey Padme." Anakin said coming up to her and leaning down and kissing her in front of everyone who was sitting around in the café.

" Hey Ani, I ordered Jawa Juice to drink, but I didn't know what you wanted to eat so I didn't order our food yet." Padme said as she smiled at Anakin as he sat down in front of her on the other side of the table.

" Thanks for the drink, you know I don't know what I want to eat just yet, but I'm thinking about Nerf burger." Anakin said picking up the menu and looking over it.

" Ok that sound good to me." Padme said as she looked at the menu.

" So what are you doing for dinner tonight?" Anakin asked as he made up his mind on the Nerf burger.

" Well I have to be home after lunch and get ready to go over my grandmother's house for dinner tonight." Padme said as she saw Sola and the two nieces walking down the street and heading into the dress shop.

" I see, well then I guess I'll work late and then have dinner here before heading home for a cold and lonely night alone in bed tonight." Anakin said as he pouted to Padme.

" Sorry I didn't know about going there until I got home this morning my mom told me the news, but could ask and see if you could come with us." Padme said as Valaree came up with their drinks.

" Sure that sounds good just let me know, through my com-link." Anakin said as Valaree put their drinks down on the table.

They both order the Nerf burger and the just sat there and talked about things they wanted to do, and it was at this time Anakin let Padme know that he had talked to Obi-Wan and he was told that he was going to be leaving in two weeks, but he wouldn't tell Padme where he was going.

Padme was in somewhat shock that he had been talking to Obi-Wan this whole time but not surprised at all, because of the very close bond that they shared with each other.

After lunch Padme left the town and headed back home and asked her parents if it was ok if Anakin joined them for dinner at her grandmother's.

After calling Anakin to let him know that it was find for him to join her and her family at the grandmother's house for dinner, so that means he wasn't going to work late and Malcom even let him leave two hours early so that way he could get cleaned up and be at Padme's house.

What Anakin and Obi-Wan didn't tell Padme that when they leave Naboo, they will be heading off for a mission before they could face the council.

Five hours later, both Anakin and Padme showed up at his house and they just headed straight for the bedroom, where both of them fell into a peaceful sleep just wrapped into each other arms.
