Chapter 4: Can She keep The Secret?
The next morning Ahsoka got dressed and got her lightsabers. She walked out looking around for Anakin. Someone put their hand on her mouth and dragged her into the closest quarters. Ahsoka recognized it as Anakin's quarters. The person let go of her and she turned around. Anakin closed and locked the door. "I didn't mean to scare you, Ahsoka," he said. "Which part? The part where you kidnapped me, our last night?" she responded. "Last night." He turned around and looked at him. His eyes were back to their normal color and he didn't have any fangs. "So I wasn't dreaming." He shook his head. "Obi-Wan figured it out after you left the other day. Otherwise, just you know." Ahsoka nodded taking it all in. "Why didn't you tell me?" "I didn't want to scare you. I didn't want to hurt you last night. That's why I ran," he explained. "You recognized me?" Anakin nodded. "Of course. I can recognize people. I just can't control myself sometimes. I ran so I wouldn't attack you by accident. If I did, I could never forgive myself." "Why?" asked Ahsoka. He walked closer to her. "Because I love you." Anakin looked at her and Ahsoka stared into his eyes. "I love you too, Anakin," she replied. Obi-Wan knocks on the door. Anakin groaned. "Why does everyone have horrible timing?" Ahsoka smiled. "Anakin. The council wants you. I know that's probably the last place you want to be, and the last thing you probably want to do, but they said they have more information. They wouldn't tell me so I don't know how much information they have," said Obi-Wan through the door. "You have at least five minutes to finish that conversation with Ahsoka and then you have to go to the council." With that, Obi-Wan walks away. Anakin turned towards Ahsoka and asked her one thing. "Promise you won't tell anyone?"
