A/N: Welcome back! How ya doin? Good? Good! I have no idea what to say so let's start! Shall we!? On WITH the fic.

(Lux's POV)

"Thanks," Janiyah said.

"Don't mention it. Anyway, I have to head back." I say trying to go out of the door, then the youngest sister/the only one actually related to me came in the room. "Aww, you just had you come when I was leaving huh."

"You know me. So, when did you meet her?"

"Who, Meg?" I ask, confused by the question.

"You know who. That really pretty Togruta girl that you were sucking faces with yesterday on the news." Megyn Kate said so nonchalantly that it made my face turn redder than it has ever been!

"W-what?"

"The one you were making out with! She is your girlfriend, right? That's what it said on the news."

"Oh, kriff."

"Language!" Sadie said, covering Megyn's ears. "Megyn is not lying. So, talk to us about Cassie!"

"Cassie?"

"That's what the news said you called her," Olivia said, walking into the room.

"Oh, Ahsoka. Well, she's not my girlfriend but we are friends."

"More like friends with benefits," Janiyah whispered underneath her breath.

"What did you say, dearest cousin?"

"I am good," Janiyah answered. I sighed, I was about to walk out the door then Megyn grabbed a hold of my leg.

"You have to give her a pretty necklace! It's a Bakura tradition!"

"Megyn, he's not from Bakura," Olivia said, shushing her adoptive younger sister.

"Well, he should be, we have the greatest city in the universe!" Megyn said, then breaking into song, "In the greatest in the UNIVERSE! Work, Work!"

"Angelica~"

"Eliza~"

"And Peggy!"

"The Schuyler sisters! We're looking for a mind at work, work!" The three sisters sang in unison. "Hey, hey. In the greatest city- in the greatest is Uni- Verse!"

"Ugh," I roll my eyes. "Are you done?" I ask, really anxious to leave.

"Yep." Megyn said. "Wait no! You gotta get her a necklace!" Dang, this girl is persistent.

"Ok, ok. Where should we go, Meg?" I keel down to be eye level with the little girl.

"Mama and Papa would know! I am gonna go ask-"

"No! I mean they need a cool down from the fight they had." Sadie said, interrupting her. "Plus I know a place."

At the jewelry store.

"I don't know jewelry, so what type of necklace should I even get?" I asked looking at my cousins, as soon as I said that they started SEARCHING the place. Scanning every single nook and cranny and asking me random yet important questions like:

"What's her favorite color?"

"Do we have a budget?"

"Do you think this would bring out her eye?"

"Can, you slow down?" I ask, looking at them.

"Fine~." They all say in unison.

"Thanks," I added, and then I started looking around myself. After a while I found a pretty looking necklace with a teardrop shape, with a ridged amethyst in the middle of I would say half a karat of small white diamonds, with a gold setting and gold chain. I pick up the piece of jewelry and turn to my cousins. "I think I like this one."

"NO!" They all yell in unison.

"Well, tell me what you really think," I sarcastically remarked.

"Ok, that necklace looks hideous." Sadie sassed, "You have to get something that has meaning, to you and her! Ya' dingus."

"Oh, now I get it… no I still don't," I whined, as the girls facepalmed.

"Get something that is significant to you and Ahsoka. A cute thing that you both like about each other!"

"Aaaa! I get it now."

"Finally." Megyn chuckled.

"Says the five-year-old." I joked, but also earned a glare from the littlest sister.

"Keep it up, wise guy." Megyn threatened, My own family, is going to murder me, geez! And then she hit my leg which made me fall. I stood up and then my eyes laid on a necklace. It was a simple design, a silver chain, a hook made out of small white sapphires, between the space of the hook is a round opal, with a silver setting.

"Wow, where is this opal from? I haven't seen anything like it."

"Oh, it's from our moon. Very rare, only a few hundred of those gems exist." The merchant said probably trying to upsell me. But the moon. I mean she did call me the sun, and if I am the sun she is the moon, mysterious and beautiful!

"Hey girls what about this one?" I ask, calling them over.

"I like it." Olivia replied.

"You do?"

"Sure."

"Ok, I am gonna get it."

"Yay!"

I paid for the necklace, said my goodbyes to the girls and went home.

And after a while Ahsoka and Bea came back.

"And then they acted like I wasn't even standing there!" Ahsoka laughed.

"Wait so your Master and the Senator actually did that?" Bea asked laughing with Ahsoka.

"Yep! Then they just acted like they didn't just break the code." Ahsoka added. The two girls could not stop laughing... until they saw me.

"Whatcha doin?" Bea asked, looking at me.

"Well, hi to you too."

"Sorry, hi. Now, when did you get here?"

"Like just now."

"Oh, that makes more sense…" Bea murmured as an awkward silence came. "Well, I should go." Bea added, and walked over to me to give me a hug or something. She hugged me and whispered. "This one is a keeper." She gave me a smile, then she waved goodbye to Ahsoka and left. I looked at Ahsoka and she looked different. She looked a bit shy and closed off.

"Are you ok, Cassie?" I asked with a concerned look on my face, she looked up and looked back down walking towards me.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just in deep thought is all."
"Ok, what are you thinking about?"

"Well, Phoebe told me something earlier today and I am still trying to wrap my head around it."

"What did she say?" I asked, concerned what my best friend told the girl that I am very much attracted to.

"Oh, nothing too important."

"GoOD!" I yell, quickly my voice cracking in the middle of it. Ahsoka starts laughing, my face turns red. "That mad?"

"Yep!" She laughed, "But, I mean it is understandable you are a teenager. I mean I wonder why it doesn't happen more often." She adds then we both look at the fourth wall, and then look back at each other. "So, is Padme and your mother here?"
"Not that I am aware of."

"Ok, so I should probably go upstairs," Ahsoka replied, then started walking inside as soon as I remembered: Holy Sith the necklace! Well, dang it Bonteri! I just have to wait for the right moment! Yeah, just wait!

Ahsoka's POV

I walked up to the guest quarters where I am staying and found a note on the bed of the room. I picked it up and read it in my head. 'Dear Ahsoka, Mina and I are not going to come back until much later tonight… So, your welcome! Have fun with your boyfriend! Also, I have the best outfit for you, check the closet. Love your favorite senator, Padme Amidala. P.S. You better be asleep before midnight, missy!'

"Oh, Padme! You just had to huh?" I walk over and open the closet and see my combat suit and something that Padme picked out. "I mean she won't know that I picked my combat suit." I scheme, but then I see another note on my combat suit that read 'Ahsoka Cassiopeia Tano! You better wear what I picked out or I will tell Anakin!" Dang it, Padme! I guess she knows me too well. I grabbed the one that Padme got for me and it also had a note on it saying. 'Yes, I do know you too well.' Oh, Padme! I take a look at what Padme gave me. A grey turtleneck sweater with a black overall like dress that hugs on the curves and a silver zipper in the middle of the dress that is about five and a half inches above the knee and white sneakers. I am going to be cold. Whatever! Then my comm started to ring: "Oh don't you-" I picked it up to see Barriss Offee my best friend's hologram.

"Ahsoka? Ahsoka where are you?!"

"Well, hello to you too."

"Ahsoka, this is serious your master is not happy. He can't find you anywhere."

"Did he tell you to comm me?"

"Yes, now Ahsoka where are you?"

"Ok, but don't tell anyone."

"Is it that bad?"

"You know me. I am the adventurous type."

"Fair point but where in Yoda's sake are you!"

"Raxus, I am on Raxus Prime."

"YOU ARE ON A SEPRITIST WORLD WITHOUT THE COUNCIL'S APPROVAL!"

"...Yes"

"Oh, Ahsoka, you are screwed."

"Yeah… I know."

"Wait… you seem different…"

"What do you mean, Barriss?"

"I mean you seem more, I don't know… relaxed maybe?"

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No, no, of course not. But you still- just forget what I said and come back to Coruscant as soon as you can. I will try to stall for you."

"Thanks so much, Barriss! I will come back when my business is done."

"Ok, May the force be with you, Ahsoka."

"And with you," I respond, turning off the comm. Well better put this loth cat on. All of a sudden I hear a knock on my door. I opened it to reveal one Lux Bonteri. "Lux? What are you doing?"

"Ok, so my mother and the Senator are not going to be here for a while so… do you want to do something?" He asked, rubbing his neck.

"Sure, like what?"

"So, not too far from here there is a lake, and I was thinking we could eat there."

"You what to go on a picnic?"
"Yeah, sure. Give me a bit to pack."

"Wait? What?"

"You asked me to go on a picnic, and I said yes."

"Wait… oh you tricky minx!" I exclaimed. Wow, he totally- wow! Ok then. He smiled and walked away, I giggled. Oh, Bonteri!

Lux's POV

Ok… this is your chance to give her the necklace. Ok, Lux! Stick to the plan! But, what if she- NO! Stick to the kriffing plan, BONTERI!

"Lux~ are we going or not?" Ahsoka whined coming into the room.

"Yeah give me a sec-" I explain as I turn around to see Ahsoka Tano looking super, No! SMOKING HOT!

"Are you ok?"

"No," I reply as she walks up close to me and claps on my chin with the thumb and index finger. What the kriff? And moves my jaw up.

"Sorry I thought your jaw was stuck, it wasn't moving and then you started to drool so I thought I would help you." Drool! I feel my face feel some silva right next to my mouth. Kriff! Ahsoka laughed, "Come on, let's go!"

"Yeah, ok…" I grab the food and walk out of the house with Ahsoka.

"So where is this lake?" Ahsoka asked, starting to walk with me.

"Not too far, I could get a transport if you want."

"Nah, I like walking.

"Ok then come on!"

At the lake…

"This is a really nice place," Ahsoka said as we arrived at the lake as the sun was beginning to set, but it was not at the point where the sky turns pink yet.

"Yeah… it's pretty."

"So… um, come on let's get this set up."

"What- oh yeah."

"Everything is in the bag, right?"

"Yeah."

"Ok, are you gonna take it out or not?"
"Right, right sorry."

"Not a problem… hey let me help you with it."

"No, I can handle it." Ahsoka laughed.

"Ok. I will see if… I don't know- wow that was poetic, I just will be right back."

"Don't be long."

"I don't worry, I'll be back!"

"And don't get lost, I have plans and they are not finding a lost Jedi padawan."

"Ok, ok…" She said walking away, I laughed to myself. I wonder why she had the urge to leave… She probably doesn't want to stand there awkwardly while I set everything up. Or she doesn't like sand. It is coarse, rough, irritating, and gets EVERYWHERE! Dang it, Lux you blew it! Ok, you are probably being paranoid… NAH THIS IS GONNA BE A DISASTER! Ok breathe, Bonteri! And everything will be ok. Well, let's get this stuff put up for when she comes back.

After setting everything up I went looking for her because she was not back. I found her, she wasn't far away or anything, I don't know why I needed to find her. I just might need glasses I don't know.

"Hey, is everything set up?" Ahsoka asked, I nodded. "I could have helped, ya' know. I could have easily set everything out with the force in like two seconds flat."

"Yeah, but I wanted to do it." I responded, Also I have a surprise I don't want you to see, but whatever.

"You have a surprise you don't want me to see?"

"YOU CAN READ MY MIND?!" I yelled… That was a good idea, Bonteri just yell at her… real smooth.

"Duh. And yes, very smooth." She said with her signature smirk.

"Wait...have you been reading my mind this whole time?"

"Oh, well… on and off. But not all the time."
"Thank the force!"

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmm… I have the picnic set up so let's go!"

"Oh, ok."

We began walking to the picnic, Ahsoka was quiet… it was weird she was obviously lost in thought. Why can't I be a Jedi and read her mind? Oh, did she hear that? Probably. I looked at her to see if she did hear me but she continued to look down at the water.

"If you are wondering, no I was not listening."

"How did you know if you weren't listening?"

"I can feel you staring at me. It was an educated guess."

"Oh…" I could feel my cheeks burning out of embarrassment. I hear a quiet laugh from Ahsoka. "What's so funny?"

"You get embarrassed so easily."

"I do not."

"Suuure, Bonteri."

"Oh, just shut up," I said we both laughed as we reached the picnic destination.

"Oh this looks nice." Ahsoka looked at it like she had never seen food before. "I am starving."

"Then eat girl." Ahsoka immediately got the food and started inhaling it, she was eating so fast. "I said eat not inhale."

"What? I am hungry."

"Soo, look at that nice sun set." I say, trying to change the subject.

"Yeah, I guess. If you think this is nice you should see the sun set on Shili. They are the most enchanting sunset you will ever see." Ahsoka confessed looking at the sky and then looking down at her hands.

"When was the last time you've been to Shili?"

"Well, I did go like I would say when I was about… four so even years ago. I went there to hunt and kill the Akul and make a headdress out of its teeth."

"Oh… so did you kill it?"

"Yeah that is what's on my head now… duh."

"Oh, that makes sense… I guess."

"Yeah it's one of my people's traditions and I am glad to have done it. That's a fun thing about being a Jedi. You can still do your people's traditions even if you were taken from them." She murmured looking a bit mad.

"Touchy subject?"

"Yep." Then she just starts laughing, "Why do all of our conversations have to be depressing?" She asked and started laughing even more than before, I joined her. Why does that always happen? The sky started turning a dark purple. So tacky. (A/N That was a joke I had with my Mom and I love it so I am not taking it out so if you are confused then, I am sorry) This is your chance Bonteri! You should give her the- wait she can read my thoughts I can't say it. "Are you good Bonteri? You are awfully silent."

"Yeah, I was just lost in thought. Wait did you-"

"Nah. I didn't feel like it. So tell me what you were thinking of or ya' know I could just see."

"Right… I- um… Oi you know my cousins?"

"Sure what about them?"

"Well, on their planet has a tradition…"

"Yeah?" She asked, looking into my eyes, looking as confused as she was beautiful.

"They give like jewelry to people that are important to them and stuff…"

"Oh so you are thinking about giving something to Phoebe."

"NO! I mean it is a kinda romantic thing and Bea is my best friend.

"Oh, ok then… so do I know who it is?"

"I would sure like to think so. So anyway I bought a necklace and-" I was cut off by her using the force to get the necklace out of the bag.

"Uau, isso parece muito caro. Você deve realmente gostar dessa garota, hein? Sinceramente, estou meio com ciúme…"

"Huh?"

"Oh I was saying this looks really expensive."

"Oh it was. But I just hope she likes it."

"Well I love it so if she doesn't I can steal it." She laughed with the most adorable laugh in the universe's history. Why does she have to be so cute!? Wait stop stalling and give her the kriffing necklace!

"Well you don't have to steal the necklace because it's for-" Ugh why is everything cutting me off this is just being stretched out now Sadie! Sorry Lux! You're lucky you are the author or I would kill you!

"Lux stop fighting with that kid!"

"Finne. But what cut me off?"

"Look behind you young man." I heard my Mother's voice. I turn and I do see my Mother, Mina Bonteri staring at me with anger in her eyes. I have a bad feeling about this.

"Mum! I thought you were out with Senator Amidala."

"I was then I wanted to check up on you and you weren't home so I went here and- wait I don't need to explain that to you! I am the parent here, not you little boy."

"Mother, how did you know we were here?"

"I have my ways. Now children, you are going back to the house you now! Do you understand?"

"But Mother-"

"Don't give me that tone! Now come on."

"Yes, Mother."

"I am sorry about my son Commander Tano," Mum says to Ahsoka as if I forced her to come!

"There is nothing to be sorry for Senator Bonteri, I willingly came along." Ahsoka said in response as we all walked towards a speeder. She looked at me in a 'Are you ok?' look. I silently nodded. We get into the speeder as I see some maids picking up my setup I put up as we go back home. This kriffing sucks!

Once we arrived…

I get out of the speeder and I go back inside of my house. Seeing Padme Amidala Naberrie (possibly Skywalker, from the stories Ahsoka has told me), in the hall. She looks at me and ushers me to come with her. What the what? I follow her and she starts to say something.

"I am really sorry about that. I tried to stop her but her Momma instincts kicked in."

"Wait so what actually happened?"'

"She forgot something here she thought the both of you would be here so then she looked at where you were by tracking your comm. And I had a good feeling you too would go out so I tried to stop her but then it happened."

"Wait… SHE CAN TRACK ME?!"

"Duh! That is like parenting trick 101. For someone top of their class you are not that bright," Senator Amidala says with sas I have never seen her have. I never knew she acted so sassy! Well, I also haven't seen her in a hot minute. Fair point, Bonteri. Thank you, Bonteri. Well, you are- STOP THAT! Wait did she say something else? "Ok, were you listening?"

"I am sorry, can you repeat that?" Padme blinked and most likely rolled her eyes suddenly all politicians can do.

"I said that the Senate meeting is tomorrow and that means we are also leaving tomorrow."

"HOLLY SITH!"

A/N: I am so sorry if it just started to drag on I was not honestly being that creative. But I hope you somewhat liked it. And I am super sorry you guys had to wait forever and get this piece of crap but whatever. I hope you have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Years!
