Disclaimer: I own nada, it all belongs to the Almighty Flanneled One. Cadi is, for the most part, me. You can credit her physical characteristics to my best friend, Guenever (Da2187Leia). I used some pieces of Blink 182's song "First Date" of the illustrious album *Take Off Your Pants and Jacket,* I know the lyrics are a little out of order, that was intentional, I know the song by heart, I just stuck the lyrics in where they fit. Trust me it's better this way; and by the way, Wink 136 = Blink 182, Star Wars style. I also borrowed a snippet of "Elephant Love Medley" from *Moulin Rouge!* Cuz what's a good Obi fic without a li'l Moulin Rouge?
Storyline: The title is pretty self-explanatory, but anyhoo. Obi is 15 years old, and he meets someone (me) and stuff happens. Muahaha! By the way, try to think of Obi-Wan not as THE Obi-Wan Kenobi, whom we all love and worship, think of him as a not-yet-known 15-year-old boy.
Note: Yes, I really treat guys like this. Yes, even if they're as hot as Obi-Wan Kenobi. Anyhoo, you should probably be forewarned I wrote this thing over a week between 2-4 in the morning every night, so this is perhaps the "purest" fic I've ever written, straight out my head and through my only subconscious fingers. Healthy, eh? So, I guess what I'm trying to tell you is: you should have fun reading this. I'm personally very proud of this one, so please review when you're done reading!
Obi-Wan Meets His Match
*1*
Obi-Wan Kenobi sat in his quarters, meditating. Only four more hours and his punishment would be fulfilled. Another prank, another punishment; he was seriously considering making that his motto. He could only pray that Qui-Gon's sense of smell would come back…
"What are you smiling about?" Qui-Gon asked as he strolled into the room. Obi hadn't even felt his presence approaching. He quickly wiped the grin off his face, replacing it with 'the Jedi frown.'
"Nothing at all, Master," Obi smiled nervously, "just, ahm (see "Green Sock Expedition" for my explanation of this term), enjoying my meditation."
"I bet," Qui-Gon eyed his Padawan, "I'm afraid I'll have to cut your punishment short, Obi-Wan."
"Oh no, Master!" Obi pouted dramatically.
"I am sure you're devastated. But no matter, we are needed at the Temple; there is a new arrival."
"Oh?" Obi raised a slender auburn eyebrow in question. Dozens of potentials were recruited every day, why was this one so special?
"Yes, I'm surprised you have not heard the buzz going around about it," the Master regarded his Padawan, "this one is - older."
"How much older?" Obi was starting to think they had found another Yoda.
"I believe she is your age. Apparently the Council could not overlook her potential."
"Really?" Obi grinned widely, he had a new girl to terrorize, or perhaps do something else with…
"None of that," Qui-Gon raised a long finger in warning, "be nice to this one, Padawan."
"Yes, Master," Obi muttered as they headed for the Temple.
***
Cadi was excited; at last her training would begin. She stood now before her heroes inside the Council chamber, bouncing with happiness. They were waiting for two more Jedi to arrive, Cadi figured they were going to be her escorts for the day.
"Patience, you must have, Cadi," Yoda said to her, a coy smile on his lips.
"With all due respect, Master Yoda, I've been patient for fifteen years," quiet laughter rippled through the room; she was happy to make them laugh. Suddenly the door opened and the awaited Jedi entered. The elder, Cadi presumed Master, was very tall, with long hair and a neat beard. The Padawan was…
"Ouch," Cadi whispered in spite of herself as her violet eyes fell on him. He was an inch or two taller than she was, with a body to kill for, and an equally nice complexion. She took in his features: fuzzy auburn hair that looked soft to the touch, the clearest eyes she had ever seen that shifted from blue to green to gray all at once, and an indescribably handsome smile. In a word: he was perfect.
"Ah, Master Qui-Gon," Mace Windu greeted the new arrival, "glad you could make it. My I present Cadi Din, our new arrival and future student."
"Welcome, Cadi. I'm Qui-Gon Jinn, and this is my apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi."
***
Something snapped back on in Obi's head when he heard his name, "Pleased to meet you," he said automatically, fumbling a little on his words. He had found it hard to keep walking when he'd laid eyes on her. Now, Obi-Wan had seen some pretty girls in his travels, but none as extraordinary as this one…
She was tall for a human female, almost as tall as he was, long limbed and curvy with pale, snowy-white skin. She had lengthy, silky, straight black hair that fell around her face and neck. It was her eyes that fascinated him the most: they were a glowing purple, almost ultraviolet. He began to wonder what they would look like in the dark, but soon enough that led him into thinking how much he wanted the be with her in the dark, which made him want to undo that tantalizingly low-cut tunic she was wearing…
"Hey, I'm up here," the girl extended her arm to tilt his head back up to eye level. Once again Obi-Wan heard something snap back together in his head. How could he have lost control so quickly?
"Sorry," he mumbled, receiving a glare from his Master.
"You will be," she returned smartly.
"Moving on," Mace Windu eagerly interrupted them, "Master Qui-Gon, is everything prepared for Cadi's move to your quarters?"
"Yes, everything is set up for her stay," Qui complied. Obi's eyes shot up in surprise.
You never said anything about-
You were punished his master ended the conversation before it started.
"I'm staying with them?" the girl's face twisted slightly in dread.
"Temporarily," Mace assured her, "until we get you a Master to train under. But for the time being, why don't your new hosts give you a tour?" Mace looked to the pair of Jedi, as did Cadi.
"Of course," Qui bowed his head and gestured toward the door. Obi stepped out rapidly, followed by a relatively relaxed Cadi.
***
So far this guy was a muffin (see Da2187Leia's "Star Wars Universe" for a better explanation): painfully pleasing to look at, a total jerk personality-wise. But Cadi was not one to rely on first impressions, and so she hoped he would redeem himself. It was time to find out if he would. She snuck up next to him and delivered a sharp jab to his left arm. She saw him fight a wince.
What was that for? he sent to her, trying to be nonchalant.
For being a sex-obsessed teenaged boy she shot back.
I said I was sorry
And I said you would be
He sighed mentally, Can't we just forget it?
Can you remember not to do it again?
I think so he replied, rubbing his arm. Cadi laughed out loud, causing Qui to look at them. They both gave him their most innocent looks, and he turned away with a shake of his head.
He's on to us Obi sent warily.
Oh no! Whatever shall we do? came the sardonic response.
Hey, you've never survived an angry Qui-Gon Jinn he boasted.
Am I supposed to respect you because you have?
You could at least be nice to me he felt it safe to flirt a little.
Nope, not a chance Cadi watched him frown at the response; it was cute.
Why not?
Because, I'm not nice to boys
Not even a Jedi Padawan?
Nope
Well, we are going to be living together for the next few days…
Yeah, so? Where, pray tell, am I sleeping?
Beats me, ask Master
"Excuse me, Master Qui-Gon, but where am I sleeping?" she hoped he would have a good answer.
"Once we return to quarters, Obi-Wan and I will set up a cot for you in his room." Cadi stopped in her tracks; was he crazy? She saw Obi grin out of the corner of her eye.
"You're not serious," she exclaimed.
"I don't see why not. This is a strange place to you, Cadi. I think it is best for my Padawan to keep you company, as well as keep an eye on you."
Oh, he'll be keeping me company, all right she thought.
I heard that Obi snuck up on her, still grinning, My good old Master, sometimes he just doesn't think like we do
Don't get any ideas, roomy
But I'm the sex-obsessed teenaged boy, remember?
All too well she thought dryly Why on Coruscant would he stick me with you?
Why don't you just give me a chance? he asked candidly.
Why should I give you one?
Because!
Oh! Because! Well, why didn't you say so before? her thought was soaked in sarcasm.
Okay, okay! I- I'm at the top of all my classes…
Cadi rolled her eyes at him Impressive
I'm fun to be around…
Most impressive
I think you'll find I'm a very caring person…
Aren't they all? Cadi smiled to herself, this was very entertaining.
Oh, come on! Obi made the most adorable puppy face at her and she could not fight a smile.
A ha! I knew it! Obi flashed a triumphant grin, Cadi only rolled her eyes. I promise you I'm not a bad guy
You wouldn't be, in your opinion
He shook his head You are impossible
I know she sent back proudly.
Don't think I haven't given up. I will win you over whether you like it or not
Wanna bet?
No, just know that I'm irresistible! he gave her a dashing smile that made her want to melt. Cadi barely managed to keep her cool- this time.
Oh please, you're imagining things she lied.
Am I? he reached for her hand but Cadi yanked it away in time. Obi folded his arms and huffed with frustration, My friends are going to love you
I'm sure she walked ahead of him. He was certainly persistent; most would have given up by now. He couldn't possibly get any cuter though…
Suddenly she felt his hands creeping around her waist, "Or maybe I should keep you all to myself," he whispered into her ear from behind. Automatically, she stomped down onto his foot and elbowed him in the ribs. The boy "oofed" and rolled to the floor.
"What the hell do you think you're doing, laser brain?" Cadi exclaimed, digging her knee into his abdomen. His Master spun around and frowned at what he saw.
"Obi-Wan, I told you to be nice. Cadi, if you please, let him up?" Cadi didn't want to look like a troublemaker, so she obeyed and offered Obi her hand. He pulled himself up, and they met eye to eye for a moment.
"Come on, you two, we're almost there," Qui started walking again. Cadi broke their intense stare and sauntered after the Master. She found herself thinking about how good Obi smelled up close…
