Amidala froze there, tears are gathering in the corner of her eyes. It felt like someone ripped out her heart and stomped on it, then place it in a blender and ripped up the remains.
"Let's go Ami, we need to get a check up on you." Bail grabs Amidala's arms with authority.
"Let go of me," Amidala swung her arms off. Her mind is with Anakin, and who knows her heart might be as well.
"You know what, I can take care of you too, you don't need that Jedi hanging around here." Bail finally snaps.
"What are you talking about?" Amidala replies furiously.
"I see the way you look at him, I am not blind." Bail whimpers holding back his hurt. "Ami, what WE have is real, please give me a second chance, I promise that I will make you see that." Bail stares straight into Amidala's eyes.
"Bail..." Amidala replies more out of confusion.
"Please Ami... for old times." Bail begs like a child. "I don't know what has gotten into me. I turned into this jealous monster. Just because I care about you so much. I can't lose you, I can't live without you. All the stars in heaven won't be able to replace you."
"All right." Amidala answers. She knows that she has already broken one man's heart and she is not prepared to break another.
~~~~At the Med center~~~
"Ahhh..." Anakin grimaces in pain.
"Easy Anakin, this is a pretty ugly burn eh." U'Loc lays his hand over the scorched skin. His palm sends out a light blue glow and the skin start to sizzle. Within ten minutes the leg looks good as new.
"Thanks buddy." Anakin breathes out.
"No prob." U'Loc grabs a glass of water and chugs it down in a hurry.
"You must be more in tuned with the force now that you have embraced the lights side. That took you no time at all." Anakin examines his leg.
"Yeah I guess." U'Loc never takes compliments well.
The door swishes open and it is Amidala, walking in. Anakin's face quickly glows with a huge smile.
"Your Majesty." The two Jedi bows in unison.
"Anakin are you ok?" Ami asks reaches out and holds Anakin's hand tightly as if she is afraid to lose it, again.
"I am fine Ami, don't worry about it." Anakin flashes one of his smirks.
"You majesty." One of her handmaidens reminds her.
"Oh right," Amidala has totally forgot about the matter, she is lost in Anakin's soulful blue eyes. "Bail wants you to forgive his earlier actions. Just that he was jealous of you that is all. You know he can't compete with a Jedi."
"And he still can't compete." U'Loc mutters to himself loud enough for the room to hear.
"But he doesn't have to anymore U'Loc." Rabe shuts her boyfriend up.
*What do you mean?* U'Loc sends to his other half. By the look in her eyes though U'Loc could have guessed. Somehow Bail must have managed to use that sly tongue of his to talk his way out of the last outburst.
Anakin bits down on his lower lip. Bail, the name disguises him. "Tell His Majesty that the incident has been forgotten, and I seek for HIS forgiveness to have endangered his... girlfriend..." Those words tear at Anakin like a thousand swords. "The only way I can to prevent this is to leave Naboo immediately."
Amidala sucks in a big gasp of air. With those last words, Anakin has drawn all the life out of that room.
