Hey, ready for another installment? Pit Droid, I'm going to take your advice and see how I can elaborate on the prior entry. Thanks for the reviews and of course: To enjoy or not to enjoy is entirely up to you. Set in VOTF.

~Morning smiles
Like the face of a newborn child
Innocent, unknowing.~
She awoke with a start. Skywalker... She was lying in his arms, her breath was coming in ragged pants, he stirred in his slumber. How long had she been asleep? Her gaze drifted downward to Luke. Luke...
~Winter's end
Promises of a long lost friend
Speaks to me of comfort~
He'd come for her. Probably thinking he'd perform some grand scale rescue. Typical Skywalker. He still hadn't told her exactly why he had not just allowed Kaarde's people to attend to her situation. Weren't there more pressing matters in the galaxy calling upon the omnipotent Jedi Master? Yet the urgency in his appearance had almost been palpable upon his arrival. The look in his eyes... The past few days had brought about a stirring... of what she was still unsure of... There was so much she wanted to say, so much he needed to hear. She was hesitant, awaiting a sign of his inclination to receive such information. Her hand hovered over his chest, his arm still spread, a gesture he must have provided in sleep. Her lips tingled with a memory, but uncertainty tainted such an idea.
~But I fear
I have nothing to give
I have so much to lose here in this lonely place
Tangled up in your embrace
There's nothing I'd like better than to fall
But I fear I have nothing to give~
He'd been running, far much too long. This dance they'd been performing over the past ten years had reached a critical impasse. The melody of the last decade had begun to escalate in the dank of the caves.
~Wind in time
Rapes the flower trembling on the vine
And nothing yields to shelter it from above
They say temptation will destroy our love
The never ending hunger~
She'd watched as other woman had been on his arm. The most painful had been Callista. Was he still searching for the fallen Jedi while lying here with her? Would he forever be on the hunt? Wasting away; drowning in his own anguish? Her fingers traced the line of his lips.
~But I fear

I have so much to lose here in this lonely place
Tangled up in our embrace
There's nothing I'd like better than to fall
But I fear I have nothing to give
I have so much to lose
I have nothing to give
We have so much to lose...~
She began to tremble as she pulled away to avoid any awkwardness upon his awakening. The barriers were there, even in sleep. How much longer...

Well what did you think? If you don't like it, tell me. I'm not sure about this one.
Disclaimers: George Lucas blah blah blah... Sarah McLachlan "Fear" none of which I own blah blah blah
Till next time boys and girls!
