A/N- if anyone cares, this is from one of the Aladin movies, I forget whether it's the second or the third. Anyways, it's also a favorite of a good friend of mine, and it was fun to do. Enjoy, and review!
Ayesha's world was in ruins. They'd been captured by the Leviathan, escaped the holding cells, killed Saul, fought Malak, found out that Ayesha was actually Revan, lost Bastila, and explained things to everyone on the Hawk. Of everyone, the only one who didn't accept things was the one she needed to most. Carth.
He'd denounced her in front of everyone before storming off to the cockpit. Ayesha didn't dare go in there to talk to him, and she didn't want to talk to anyone else, so she fled to her bunk.
How could he do this? Didn't he realize that this tore her up more than it could possibly hurt anyone else? Did he really think that she was the same Revan who destroyed planets and killed innocents?
These questions and others just as miserable circled in her thoughts while she sat on her bunk, devouring her secret stash of chocolate. She needed that chocolate badly.
"Query: Master, can I enter?" A familiar voice asked on the other side of the door. She blinked. What was HK doing here?
"Fine, whatever, go ahead HK." She replied tiredly, "What do you need?"
HK came in, looking embarrassed. How a droid with no changeable facial features managed that, she wasn't sure. "Embarrassed statement: Master, the rest of the crew chose me to come talk to you. Why they did so I am not sure."
Ayesha snorted. They would send HK, just to try and make her laugh, if nothing else. "They want you to cheer me up." She clarified, "Because I've been in here sulking about Carth for a day and a half."
HK stopped short. "Horrified interjection: Must I?" Poor HK. He sounded miserable at the thought, "I would rather eliminate the problem by taking care of the meatbag."
Ayesha smiled weakly. "No, you don't have to cheer me up." She said, patting his arm, "But you're not allowed to kill Carth either."
HK would have rolled his eyes if he had the programming for it. "Oh, please, master. Forget about that meatbag. All he's done is cause trouble."
Ayesha sighed. "If only it were that simple."
Forget about that guy
Forget about the way you fell into his eyes
Forget about his charms
Forget about the way he held you in his arms
Ayesha blinked. Someone had programmed HK with a… singing voice? Sort of. "I can't forget." She protested, "It's the most amazing feeling-"
Walking on air's obnoxious
The thrill
The chill
Will make you nauseous
Ayesha shook her head. "No, it's wonderful. If only he would hold me one more time"
You'll never get enough
HK was arguing with her. This in itself was a novelty, let alone his curious insight.
Just forget about love!
Ayesha sighed. "How can I forget?"
Forget about romance
Forget about the way your heart begins to dance
Then you feel the blush
When he's spouting out some sentimental mush
Love really is revolting
It's worse than when we're bolting
Ayesha laughed. "You have a point there. It is cheesy, looking back on it. Rather awful. But still… just give up on love entirely? I don't think I could."
HK interrupted.
Forget about this fluff!
Just forget about love!
Ayesha shook her head. "Can't." she said, "Too much an irrational, emotional human." She sighed dreamily.
I can't forget the way it felt
When he held his hand out for mine
My heart all-aflutter
HK emitted what could only be called a groan.
If I could
I would shudder
Ayesha glared half-heartedly at him, before going into another remembrance.
The first time we kissed
"For shame, master."
It won't be missed
Forget about his touch
Ayesha shook her head again
I can't forget about his touch
HK gave her his best imitation of a glare
In the scheme of things,
It doesn't matter much
Ayesha sighed
It matters so much
HK was getting annoyed.
You're better off on your own
A meal becomes a banquet
When you eat alone
Ayesha gave him a skeptical look
On this ship?
Hmmmmm…
Love's filled with compromises
HK had joined in, and Yesha dropped out
And don't you hate those big surprises?
Yesha looked uncertain
A cozy rendezvous
HK groaned again
Oh, please, master
Yesha went on dreamily
Candlelight for two
HK snapped back
Oh, jeez
Ayesha shook her head at him.
Look, you're calling my bluff
I can't forget about love
She smiled, a true smile this time. "I'll bet he feels the same way."
I can't forget about my heart
And the way it felt to fall right from the start
She looked towards his cabin, seeming to ignore HK entirely
Whatever we may do
You're here for me
And I'm still here for you
To wish, to want, to wander
To find the sun
Through rain and thunder
A cozy rendezvous
Or candlelight for two
No matter what
He won't forget about love
Ayesha looked over at HK to find him looking revolted. "Thanks, HK. You did good."
HK looked abashed. "Master, I don't think I will ever understand your ridiculous obsession with love."
Ayesha smiled. "It doesn't matter. You don't need to. But who taught you to sing?"
"I-ah do not recall, master." He said, looking uncomfortable.
"Oh, well." Ayesha replied, a grin on her face, "No worries. You can go now, I'm sure there are other things you'd rather be doing."
HK turned to leave, leaving Ayesha to her own activities.
"What about the meatbag?" He asked, pausing in the doorway.
Ayesha laughed. "He'll come around. I've just got to wait for his pride to settle."
HK accepted that answer, leaving silently.
Ayesha grinned. "Oh, he'll come around. I can feel it."
