hardest. Thanks to brown eyes, realbluelightsaber, Gabi and aisker, I love
you guys, which I tell you all the time. I just hope I don't disappoint
with this next chapter. Enjoy..
The gentle pitter-patter of the rain filtered into her ears as she lay in a semiconscious state under their handmade shelter.
The next thing she was aware of was the strong, and quite heavy, arm of the Jedi hanging protectively round her slender waist.
She'd never woke to the feeling of someone holding her before and she found it a little odd but certainly not unpleasant.
She lay spooned against him and the contact between the bare skin of her back and his chest made her feel naked beneath the blanket that was his robe.
She heard him sigh from behind her and she snuggled further into the comfort of his arms.
She felt so safe within the confines of them and didn't have any intention of moving.
Her thoughts took her back to the events of last night and the awkwardness that had followed their kiss.
It had taken a lot to convince Obi-Wan that she wasn't angry with him and that it hadn't all been his fault, that she was to blame too.
Tension filled the air as they both lay down as far away from each other as possible, she on her side facing away from him and he on his back.
The eruption of feelings in her body had tormented her for a long time and caused sleep to elude her.
She lay awake listening to the sound of his breathing, wondering if she would ever feel his lips on hers again.
She thought it cruel that she should be allowed to experience the pleasure and happiness that his kiss brought but then have it snatched from her.
The saying 'It is better to have loved and lost than to have ever loved at all' sprang to mind but at that point in time she drew no comfort from it.
She didn't fully understand her feelings for Obi-Wan, all she knew was that they went far beyond friendship and a little girl's crush.
She was scared to put a label on her feelings for him, scared to acknowledge what they really were because once she did there would be no turning back.
It was torture and her heart ached to have him so close.
As she had slowly descended into sleep she'd felt him brush her hair and heard the whisper of his voice but had been unable to make out the words.
And that brought her back to the present and the wonderful feeling of being held tightly against his well-formed body.
She decided that she could live the rest of her life out here cradled in his arms and be completely content.
She wished that life could be that simple but unfortunately it never would be for her.
She would have to cherish this moment while it lasted, which wouldn't be for much longer as she felt Obi-Wan stirring to life.
She didn't want him to know that she was awake so she closed her eyes and faked sleep.

For some time the force had been gradually guiding him to the conscious world against his will and he was finally awake.
The soft smell of Jasmine filled his senses and he reached out with the force to become fully aware of his surroundings.
He was greeted by the strong presence of Padme wrapped in his arms and a quick peak with one eye and a deep breath told him that the sweet smell of Jasmine was coming from her hair.
He was certain he hadn't fallen asleep holding her like this and it was fairly obvious that the force had been at work through the night and forced this predicament upon him.
He didn't have a clue how he was going to explain this to her.
She shifted a little in his arms and the sensation of skin to skin contact struck him and he had to stifle a moan.
Her skin was pure silk and a complete contrast to that of the slightly rough skin on his chest.
His thoughts flashed back to their kiss last night and he struggled to find his centre.
That kiss had been a mistake no matter how much the force had willed its existence.
He should have been stronger.
Some Jedi he was turning out to be the first sign of temptation and he was giving into it.
But he'd learned last night that she wasn't just a temptation, no she was much more than that and it was that that worried him.
His feelings for her were very real and not just fuelled with desire.
The force seeked their union for a higher purpose, this much he knew but what purpose he couldn't tell.
It was when he'd kissed her that the reality of his feelings had surfaced.
He'd tried meditating over them but his centre had been elusive so he had settled for just lying quietly sorting through it all in his mind.
He'd come to the conclusion that he couldn't keep his feelings buried deep inside anymore and he had to confront them and speak them aloud.
He'd waited till he felt her slipping into sleep.
Then he sat up and looked down at her beautiful face and lightly stroked her hair away from it and prepared himself for the moment of truth.
In a hushed whisper he finally said the words.
"Padme, I love you."
The force had rejoiced with the admission and finally allowed him to fall into a deep sleep.
With it his troubles had disappeared only to resurface in the light of day.
He lifted his head to find her eyes closed but a quick probe with the force told him that she was indeed awake.
He thought it best if he went along with her little game; she'd only be embarrassed if he announced that he knew she was awake.
He reluctantly removed his arm from around her waist and used it to stroke her bare arm with feather light touches from beneath his robe.
He watched the corners of her mouth twitch as she fought to contain the fits of giggles that he knew begged for release as he continued to tickle her flesh.
He lowered his lips to her ear.
"Wakey wakey Padme."
She now had a wide grin on her face and he began to tickle her more vigorously.
She broke the silence with her high pitched laughter and she wriggled violently to try and stop him.
He didn't know why he'd decided that this would be the best way to 'wake' her.
Her rash movements against his body were only serving to arouse him and he knew he should stop her but he didn't want her to.
He tickled her sides and she began to cry out for him to stop.
"Obi-Wan, please, oh oh please."
She was out of breath and her face was flushed, if anyone were to go by right now they would easily get the wrong idea as to what the two were doing.
.......................................
.......................................
She couldn't take it any longer.
She thought she was going to pass out from the lack of oxygen her body was receiving.
She somehow managed to turn so that she was facing Obi-Wan.
He became distracted at the new angle and she took full advantage of it.
She quickly nudged his shoulder so that he would fall onto his back and straddled his hips while she pinned his arms above his head.
Her grip was tight but she had no doubt that he could free himself if he wished to do so.
Her face was only a couple of inches above his and she had to fight the desperate urge to kiss him.
She moved her hips against his to make herself more comfortable and she felt a bump beneath her and moved over it again.
She watched his eyes roll back into his head and heard the quiet groan that escaped his mouth.
She knew all about sex but had never put the knowledge into practice and right now her naivety was getting her into all sorts of trouble.
She couldn't help herself as she let her hips rock against his for a third time.
He let out another groan and his face was a mixture of delight and pain.
The moment was short lived though as he suddenly grabbed her hands and flipped them over, his face deadly serious as he looked down at her.
"Please don't do that."
He had to control his breathing before speaking again.
"I'm sorry I should have had more control over myself."
"I'm sorry too, my curiosity got the best of me and I didn't think."
"It's ok, it's all forgotten now."
They were silent for a few minutes as they still remained in the same position, but Obi-Wan soon spoke.
"I think its time we started heading back."
Tbc...
I hope you guys all liked it, sorry to cut the action a little short but you have to build these things up slowly, I have to remember that I did put this in the angst category. Let me know what you think and if I did ok with this chapter. Please review!!!!!
