The Jedi Kenobi, was now meditating deep into the night. His padawin was in his bedroom catching up on his Temple lessons, assigned by Jedi master Mace Windu.
He had been very excited when the queen and her handmaiden left. He told Obi Wan about his "tour" with the queen.
Obi Wan had looked at him amazed and even tried to reprimand him, saying that he was probably annoying the queen by now.
Anakin had answered that he knew it was their destiny to be together and it was inevitable. He said it with so much passion, that his master had almost been convinced. Instead Obi Wan looked at him, and instructed him to meditate and search in the force what his future with Amidala could entail. Obi Wan told him that desire such as he was showing, led to the dark side.
Anakin complained yet again. He had heard that lesson over and over again, and he knew that he would never go to the dark side.
And so he had left his master, determined to prove that he could still control his emotions.
Once he had finished cleaning the kitchen, Obi Wan himself walked to the cockpit of the ship. He looked in front of him and the stars stretched out. Obi Wan loved space travel. Being one with the stars. As a young Jedi he would go out at night and wander the temple grounds, searching for a good spot to stargaze. But now as a full Jedi, and a master, he no longer had the luxury of watching the stars.
So he now took this break to meditate close to the stars. He let his mind expand and reach like the stars reaching in front of him.
Time passed and Obi Wan no longer noticed, he was lost in the force now. Embedded within the interwoven fabrics, which the Force connects.

Anakin had gone in the training room to meditate after his lessons, as his master had instructed. He sat in a meditative position, and closed his eyes. As soon as he did, millions of images came to him. He opened them once more. Shock was there in his eyes.
This lost of control over his Jedi abilities, used to happen often in his youth, but he had gotten past that years ago. Such loss of control was not normal for any Jedi. In the beginning, the Jedi council had decided that this happened to Anakin, because of his strong abilities in the force, and the fact that he was untrained.
They had worked hard to teach him control. And now here he was, acting like a hormonal teenager.
He sighed, and tried once more to center himself in the force.
This time he could feel the control as he closed his eyes.
He tired to navigate his way through the Force, he wanted to find that point where his life Force connected with that of Amidala's.
He dove deeper into the force, he was now entering a deep meditative state. It was the only way he could find her. He was still perplexed that he couldn't instantly find her using the Force, even when they were near.
Time became irrelevant to him, as he felt her getting near. And as his breath came in regularly, his body muscles relaxed, and allowed him to see his future with the queen.
It was a cloudy one, but then again everything in Anakin's life had always been cloudy. But he could see that his life was interwoven with hers. And theirs would be an important relationship, one that would change the galaxy. Unaware, he began to smile. He was content with the little glimpse. It was enough for him. He continued to meditate however, now trying to build more control.
Anakin remained in the meditative position. More aware of the Force, than he had been for the last few days. He took advantage of the situation, to sharpen his meditative skills, something all Jedi masters encouraged him to do.

The queen sat up in her bed, gasping quietly, as sleep escaped her body. She had a vision of someone in her mind. The person was cloudy, but she knew that he was not a good person. She saw a black armor, and heard a deep breath. Her heartbeat raced, and she clutched the sides of her bed. The ship trembled a bit, and Amidala felt colder than she had a moment ago.
Who was that man?
Was he someone in the near future?
Amidala was now sitting up on her bed; her breaths were shallow and came in quick. She bent her head down as her body convulsed in fright.
She had never had such a frightening nightmare, and as a politician, she had many nightmares. She had been threatened many times, in her career.
She felt her head throbbing as she waited, as she waited for him to come.
A moment later she heard her door open, and somebody came in. There was no use in looking up to see who it was, because she already knew. She recognized his presence, his footsteps.
He bent down next to her and saw that she was truly shaken. He placed a hand on the small of her back, and sent calming thoughts to her.
Aloud he asked what had happened.
"It was a nightmare."Amidala answered her voice still shaky.
"About what?" he whispered.
She tried to answer, but shut her mouth. She could not describe what had happened in her dream. What she had witnessed. Instead of speaking, she raised her head and placed her hands on his head. She opened up the link she knew they had and let him see firsthand what she had seen. He was surprise at her move, but let himself take in what she wanted to give to him. And as he saw what had been in her mind, he was not surprised that she had been trembling. She wondered at her knowledge of their connection, as she looked at him close his eyes. Where had that come from?
He reopened his eyes and looked at her silently, his eyes searching hers for a reaction.
"I understand." He said. He came closer to her and held her in his arms for a moment, trying to calm her nerves down as well as his. What he had seen had truly been horrible.
He was tempted to say that it had just been a nightmare, but he knew better.
Amidala sobbed a little, finally letting out her complete shock of the visions. Although she felt safe, with the Jedi beside her, she was burdened with the sudden knowledge that something horrible was going to happen one day. She shook away the thought.
"You needn't worry, the future is always in motion." Said the Jedi trying to reassure her once more.
Amidala nodded and regained her composure. She suddenly looked down, and blushed as she noticed that she was in her nightgown. The Jedi seemed to realize as well that being together like this in the night, would not look good, stood up.
Amidala cleared her throat trying to clear the awkward situation.
"Jedi, how did you know that I was having a nightmare?" she asked.
He stood silently, his face solemn, and his hands held together tightly.
"How did you know it was me?" he responded.
She looked down at her hands and gave a slight nod. She understood.
"Well thank you for coming." She said sincerely.
"I'm always here for you your majesty." He said gravely. He turned and walked to the door.
She nodded once more.
"Yes, I know." She said quietly.
"Goodnight Padmé."He said closing the door behind him. She looked up just as he disappeared, noting the use of her handmaiden nickname.
"Goodnight Obi Wan." She said quietly as she heard his footsteps diminish.
I knew that you would come. Was Amidala's last thought as she let herself slip into the arms of sleep.
