The Inner Battle



~Four Days Later~

Padmé sat on her window seat in her room. She looked up at the sky, it was a dull grey. It was going to rain. She loved the rain. Smiling smugly to herself, she brought her knees to her chest and hugged them tightly.

I wonder where Anakin is....she thought to herself.

Wait, what am I thinking? Anakin was a little boy when I last saw him. That guy was all grown up....

But then again, last time I saw him was 10 years ago. It could have been him. His voice was so deep and almost.....sexy?......

No no no no no no....I have a boyfriend! Darien's a great guy. Sweet and kind and giving and.....

Anakin was giving...He offered to get in theat podrace, for me!

Oh shut up! Stop thinking of Anakinwhen you have a perfectly good guy wrapped around your little finger! Darien's cute. I love his hair and his dark blue eyes.......

Anakin had light sky blue eyes. Almost crystallike...

Oh would you stop it with Anakin!It probably wasn't even him. Just a figment of your imagination. You THOUGHT you heard his say "Anakin" ...it could have easily been "Anadin" or "Anawin"

Yea.. see! it could have been any other name.....NOT Anak---

Her iner battle with herself was suddenly cut off by a shrill buzz on her nightstand. Shaking her head she walked over and pushed the holo-vid 'on' button. A familiar face popped onto the screen and smiled at her.

"How was your morning, Pookie?"

Did he just call me Pookie? Ewww....

"Hi sweetie! It was fine.. I just curled up on my window seat waiting for the rain to come so I can watch it." Padmé answered Darien, putting on a smile.

He crinckled his nose and his eyebrows furrowed. "Waiting for the rain? You LIKE rain?"

"Uh-huh. Ever since I was a child. It's soothing."

"Riiiight. Ok then. The reason I contacted you was to apolozige..."

"For what?"

"Well, I can't make it to dinner today. Master Bunta and I are going on a mission on Florenkina. We should be back late tomorrow night."

Padmé put on a disappointed look on her face and said, "Oh that's ok. We can't always see each other."

"Ok I'm glad your not mad....Oh! I asked Skywalker to watch out for you. He said it's ok with him if it's ok with you."

"Yea! Sure.. He's not ALL bad, I guess." she joked. "So, I'll see you tomorrow sometime. Bye sweetie."

"Ok, Bye Pad." he said before kissing the tips of his lips and blowing it toward her. Then the screen went black, and Padmé let out a sigh of relief.

Why am I being like this? WHY? Darien is so loving and all I do is lie and pretend I'm having a good time. Why am I doing this?

Because your bored with him.....Sure he's a great guy and he's fun loving but you need...Action! Adventure! and.....Kinky sex?

What the...Where are YOU coming from? Stop that nonsense right now!

Padmé stopped and rubbed her temples. "Look at what your doing, Padmé... You're having a fight with yourself!" she mumbled to herself. Standing up she grabbed a coat and let herself out the door. Looking both ways, she thought of who she felt like seeing.

Serena was to the right along with Tinga and Lita. The dining hall was down to the left. And straight ahead was the main recreational area for all the young Jedi. Buttoning up her coat, she walked straight thinking to herself what she was going to do.
