AN: Hey guys! Sorry it's been two effing months since i lasted updated so i made this chapter SUPER LONG as a way of saying sorry. Also i'm gonna start doing small life updates. Right now i'm starting my collage process and it's so stressful and me and my parents are on bad terms and i'm pissed at them and mad at myself so i mostly keep to my room. it's odd because somedays they are very positive about the situation i'm in (i have a D in math and i need to bring all my other grades up) but other days they tell me that i'm not gonna get into collage and that i cant handle collage and i need to start being okay with the fact that i'm probably going to have to live at home and go to our community collage, so yeah it makes me cry a lot. But YOU GUYS ARE SO FLIPPING AWESOME I LOVE YOU!

Lux's POV

There are two factors that make my relationship with sleep dysfunctional.

Factor 1: I love sleep

Factor 2: I'm a senator

(We could also factor the fact in that I'm Seventeen the age when the average human needs the most sleep but gets the least of it.)

So when my alarm went off at the normal 5 Am I was pretty excited to get to push the snooze button knowing I didn't have to go into work today. Unfortunately for me the alarm clock in my room on Naboo was unlike other ones, in the sense that along with blaring a high pitch BEEP sound it also turns all the lights in my room on and opened the blinds. I must of hit the snooze button five or seven times before I realized something was wrong. I look at the alarm clock and noticed there was a message flashing across the screen.

The snooze button won't work until I reprogram it. Be in the Dinning room in ten minutes- Love Padme.

Did I forget to mention when Padme is mad at me she hacks in and messes with my Alarm clock?

Then minutes later I found myself walking into our dinning room, Padme was there drinking her normal morning tea when she saw me she smiled warmly as if nothing had happened.

"Goodmorning Lux, I'm happy to see you alive and well, between your work and my work how long has it been that we have been in the same place at the same time?"

this is going well, I thought maybe she isn't too mad. "Good morning Padme, I think it's been about three weeks" I said siting down as maid came over and poured me tea, before I even had time to finish saying thank you Padme said.

"Well in that case that's how long you are grounded for" she took a sip of her tea "You are allowed to leave my wing to go to other areas of the Palace and the Palaces grounds, but you are not allowed to go into town or get onto a ship or have friends over, and don't try to sneak out again the Palace guards have orders from me to not let you leave."

"What? Why? Padme that's not fair"

"oh I think its very fair, you disobeyed me and almost got kidnapped by terrorist you could have been died , Ahsoka could have been killed"

" Wasn't having Ahsoka save me punishment enough?! Way to send her to pick me up Padme, totally was not embarrassed at all to look like such an idiot in front of her."

"You could take a page or two out of Ahsokas book!" she snapped back "you have to understand that while it may feel cowardly sometimes the bravest thing you can do as a senator is to keep yourself out of harms way, and that if your trying to impress Ahsoka being reckless won't win her over"

I sighed "okay I understand- wait, I'm not trying to impress Ahsoka! Who said anything about that?"

Padme smiled "no one said anything, I just figured I should tell you that considering she is going to be living with us for now on."

I almost dropped my cup of tea "Ahsoka is going to be living here, with us? Why?"

"Well after I found out she left the Order you called me-"

"And you said you were going to take her back here but you never said anything about her living here." I said cutting her off.

"The Queen offered her a job here at the Palace and she took it, she will be living with us in my wing for at least a few months, in fact she should be in her room sleeping right now. Speaking of sleep you look awful, go back to your room and get some sleep, I fixed your alarm,"

I said goodbye to Padme and walked all the way back to my room I was about to open the door when another door a few down on the other side of the hall opened up and someone walked out.

I didn't know what was more awkward randomly running into the Ahsoka Tano former Jedi commander who once beheaded four deathwatch members at once and seeing her in a pair lavender Pajamas or Running into Ahsoka Tano the one girl the force seems to want me to look like a fool in front of and realizing I was in my Pajamas (I vaguely remembered waking up in the middle of the night to chance from my messed up work cloths into Pajamas thankfully at some point I had managed to put on PJ pants instead of just sleeping in a shirt a boxers, if she saw me dressed like that I probably would of just died.)

She walked towards me and I broke the silence "you are up early," smooth Lux I thought angrily to myself very smooth.

She smiled and my stomach gave a small jolt "I'm still adjusting to not being a Jedi anymore, they wake up early"

A feeling of dread washed over me.

I remembered how awful the past weeks had been, how much I worried about her how I felt when I heard the news and how I didn't believe it at all. Then when she want on the run I couldn't sleep at night not knowing if I would ever be able to look forward to randomly running into her again. And I remembered how angry I was that I was stuck on my Planet not able to leave, I wanted to go find her myself. I wanted to talk to her if only for a second to tell her I believed her. The once she was captured again I wanted to be at the trial but I couldn't. I remembered calling Padme up to seven times a day trying to get updates and holding on to her every word because that was my only way to get news from the outside world. And the relief I felt when Padme told me she went free only to be told she left the order. I rembered feeling awful for her and for all that had happened to her. But mostly I rembered feeling scared.

And then I felt like an Asshole. All that had happened and what I didn't even mention it once since I saw her last night, I did'nt contact her at all the past few weeks when she needed it most. She must of thought that I abandoned her but I didin't.

I knew it was probably dumb and the wrong time but I reached forward and hugged her wrapping my arms around her strong body.

"I am so sorry" I said softly (honestly I was trying not to cry)

Ahsoka was shocked for a few moments and stood very still not knowing what I was doing but once I said that her hands moved and she hugged me back resting her head on my neck.

"I missed you Lux" she said back chocking back tears

" You went through hell Ahsoka, and I should have been therefor you I should of said something last night but I-"

She cut me off "Shhhh Padme told me everything, thank you, thanks for not giving up on me" she hugged me slightly tighter.

My eyes had tears in them but I didn't want her to see so I kept hugging her "I could never turn on you wither you like it or not we make one hell of a team it's going to take a lot more then that for you to get rid of me"

She laughed and pulled away we did our best to dry our eyes she looked down and laughed.

"what?" I asked

"I'm in Pajamas" she said smiling a little "lavender ones, never thought I would let anyone let alone you see me in purple Pajamas"

"well good thing for you, you happen to rock lavender Pajamas in fact you should only wear lavender Pajamas for now on" I said slyly

"I have been thinking about getting some new clothing, anyway I'm going to go get something to eat and then probably take a shower and then go into town, have fun being grounded" she said walking away.

"She told you?!" I exclaimed watching her walk away she didn't respond all the did was laughed. And I could I stayed there in that very spot watching her walk away and listening to that laugh all day.


thanks for reading! I love you all -VF
