********************
The weeks flew by with no one even mentioning Ty. The Council decided it best to just act like he was never part of them, while in recovery. Anakin got out of the Healers fully healed, and Padme accepted the fact the she couldn't have any children. It wasn't an easy thing to accept but she did, for she couldn't change it, so there was no reason for her to sit around moping about it. She moved on, living her life to it's fullest, with Anakin at her side, she was happy and that's all she knew.
What she didn't know that Anakin was up to something. She did know that he had left class early several times and said it was nothing important, but she was beginning to get worried about him. Anakin on the other hand knew exactly what was going on and he wasn't telling her a word. Every since the trouble of the latest weeks he had been planning a surprise for her. He was going to take her away from the Temple for a nice day to themselves on the beach under the stars. The only problem was that not only did Corasaunt have no beaches it definitely didn't have a very nice sky, not to mention stars.
So Anakin worked it out. He was going to take Padme off of Corcaunt. But it wouldn't be easy. He had to beg the Council for permission and then there was the problem of getting a transport and getting her to keep her eyes closed the whole time. Anakin thought it through and he figured if it was for him she would do it, but he wanted to take her to a beach and the only place he thought of that had them was Naboo and there was no way he was taking her back there. Then an image of Alderran popped in his head. Yea! The have romantic stuff there! He thought to himself. He was taking her to Alderran.
Well, the day came that he was going to take her, and he was acting as suspicious as ever. Padme kept asking 'What was wrong' and "What he was up to' and he would just tell her 'Nothing' and 'Everything's fine', why do you ask. He got the transport prepared early that morning with things for a quiet picnic on a secluded beach and the only thing left he had to do was get her to keep her eyes closed. He had it all planned, they would arrive at sunset and he would make her open her eyes. And she will fall in my arms and smother me with kisses, cuz I'm the sweetest guy alive! He flattered himself.
He walked to the long corridor to Padme's quarters holding only a scarf in his hands he knocked lightly on the door. Depa answered with a bright smile lighting up her face, she was his helpful accomplice. He flashed Depa a smile and she nodded pointy towards Padme room motioning that she was in there. Anakin used one of his many Force tricks to go unnoticed through Padme's open door. Thank God it was open! He thought to himself.
When he entered he smelled the sweet lilac shampoo still holding it's scent in her hair, he inhaled deeply to get more of it, and to also get more control. He walked deeper in the room and saw that she was facing the window just looking at the passing traffic, he slowly walked up behind her shielding that he was there. He grabbed the scarf with his other hand a stretched it out and front of him and quickly jumped on her back and wrapped the scarf around her eyes. She screamed as loud as she possible could and she only stopped when Anakin flipped her over and silenced her with a deep and passionate kiss.
"It's only me!" He whispered.
Padme smiled widely her lips still lingering on his. "What are you up to?"
"Oh, nothing more than usual." He said picking them off up the floor.
"That's what I'm afraid of, Why am I wearing this, can I take off?" She said tugging at the scarf around her eyes.
"No" he shouted pulling her hand away from her face, " I have a surprise for you and you can't take it off till we get there."
"Get there?" She said grabbing his hand so she could find her way. "Where exactly is there?"
"You'll see." He smirked as he pulled her out of her room.
He grabbed her around the waist with one hand and led her down the halls with the other. Many passing Jedi gave him odd looks for walking with a blindfolded woman and not to mention holding her so close.
When he arrived at the transport he slowly walked her up the ship and took her into the passenger seat. "Just stay there and no peeking, Ok?"
"Your no fun!" Padme said as she patted at the scarf on her face. "Where are we going anyway?"
"You'll see just sit back and relax ok?" He soothed her.
"Fine." She sighed, and felt them take off and jump into hyperspace. "We are leaving the planet! Where are you taking me! ANAKIN! What are you up to?" She asked half way frightened.
"Just be quiet, and don't worry." He patted he hand lightly.
"Does the Council know about you KIDNAPPING me?" She shot at him after a moment of silence.
"Umm, I wouldn't exactly call it kidnapping, more like borrowing." He shook his head mostly to agree with himself.
"Sure..." She chuckled as they went off into the deep blackness of space.

When they arrived at Alderran, Padme was quickly working on Anakin's last nerve, annoying him, trying to get him to take the blindfold off. When he lowered the ramp and grabbed her to take her down her almost dropped her thinking of all the things that they were going to be doing that night crossed his mind. He grabbed her tighter around her around the waist and got a painful blow in the stomach for the act.
"OK for one." She started. "I can see your thoughts, and that stuff wont be happening if you drop me ya got it! And two, When can I take this thing off!"
"Calm down, soon, I promise." He kissed her deeply after the arrived at the end of the ramp.
He landed the transport from Coracuant on the high part of the beach so they wouldn't have to walk far when they arrived, and he thought that Padme was starting to get the idea, and probed her mind for a brief second and found out that she was beyond confused and had no clue what was happening.
"Wait here." He instructed her and gave her a quick kiss and walked away as she reached for him only grabbng the air in the cool breeze.
Anakin walked back in the ship grabbing a sack that had a blanket and a few other things for the night in it and as he walked back out the ship he looked out the windshield and saw Padme standing facing the sunset, yet not knowing it, with her hair flowing in the breeze and the sun casting a warm glow around her body. She really is an angel He whispered to himself, as tears filled up his eyes, from her beauty.
He walked down the ramp and threw the sack across his shoulder and it rested heavily on his back. He walked over to Padme grabbing her hand and spinning her around and capturing her mouth in an unexpected kiss. He pulled away and put his lips up to her ears and simply whispered, "Cover your ears." As he walked them down the beach.
"What? I'm not.." She blurted out but was cut off by another passionate kiss which she greedily accepted.
"Just do it." He answered back as he grabbed her around the waist from behind and pulled her close to his chest. So close she could feel his heart racing in anticipation against her back. she put her hand tightly over her ears, wanting so much to know what was going on.
When Anakin held her waist tightly and let her go no further, she began to take her hand from her ears only to have them pushed back. She stood in silence, hand over her ears. Anakin stood a moment to look at the Angel in front of him and then he sat up the 'bed' on the sand. A think blanket and a few other little necessity's and the bag thrown to the side, Real nice He thought and walked back over to his Lover.
He walked behind her a slowly brought her hands down to his mouth kissing them with all the passion he had in him. A broad smile crossed her face as she felt Anakin grab her around her waist from behind and held her close once again. He very slowly untied the blindfold and lowered it from her face. She felt the sunlight hit her face and she noticed a soothing breeze and a soft sound in the backround. I haven't seen anything yet and I'm in Heaven!
"Open your eyes." Anakin whispered in her ears.
A warm chill went down her back as his words lingered in her ears, she slid her hands down to his were they were resting on her waist and grabbed them tightly in her own. She slowly fluttered her eyes open and her eyes quickly adjusted to the remainder of the sunlight. Before her she saw the cute little bed Anakin made and the crashing of the waves permitting a soothing sound with the sun on the verge of setting. A silent tear made its way down her face and fell off her cheek and onto Anakin's hand as she turned around to face her husband.
She faced him with love filling her entire her soul. I can't believe Anakin did all this!
Padme turned slowly around to see Anakin staring deep into her eyes as if looking into her soul. "I love it Anakin, thanks you so much, it is so beautiful, I needed to get away."
"I love you." He whispered in her ear.
She looked up in his spirited blue eyes and was speechless. "This is perfect Ani. This is the best day of my life, this is.." She was captured by the best kiss they ever shared.
She could see stars, the world closed around them, they were spinning with the sound of crashing waves and each other breathes filling all existence. The world stopped. Everything stopped for them. For them. If anyone was meant to be together it was them. They were meant to be, and nothing could break through there bond, they could face anything.
She looked across the beach, the waves coming up and beginning to touch her feet, the sun just inches from a full set and the breeze making her her flow, everything was perfect, Ani was perfect.
"Do you know how much I love you?" He questioned.
"No." She said with a wide grin pressing against his lips. "Why don't you show me?" She wrapped her arms around his neck and she felt the tight squeeze around her stomach and she was lifted off the ground. She pulled out of this kiss and Anakin twirled her around, until she wrapped her legs around his waist and dove in and kissed him with enough Force power to knock a normal person down.
Anakin welcomely kissed her back and lowered them to the blanket laying on the soft sand, that he once described. Their clothes were quickly stripped and thrown afar from them. Out of all the times Padme had spent many sleeplessness nights in Anakin's Quarters she had never felt so much love. With every kiss came a new passion. With every motion came a new passion. For the first time she felt as if she was one with Anakin during their love. With every kiss Anakin gave her she felt as if she was being led deeper away from the world. Nothing could touch her in Anakin's arms, and she was never leaving them.
The once quiet and secluded beach on an Island far from the normal civilized Aldarran, was now filled with laughter, screams, and moans of pleasure. The soft breeze swept over the young couple, sending a shiver down Padme's back, and making Anakin huddle to her closer. Anakin laid on his back staring at the bright star shinning on his form and reflecting in his perfect eyes, Padme lay on his chest listening to his extremely quickened heartbeat from recent events slowly calm. She watched his expressionless face plastered with sweat look up at the stars in such wonder.
She didn't know how long she watched him, but it didn't seem long enough, he looked down at her his face lit up with a huge grin.
"What?" he question and laughed at her expression.
"I love you so much Anakin." She whispered back to him and laid her head once again on his heart. He brought his hand up to her face and stoked it gently and wove it through her hair, making her relax even more on to his body. She began to slowly fade into sleep of exhaustion, slowly tracing the muscles of Anakin's chest with her finger. With her head just inches away from Anakin's ear he could here her breathing finally slow as she slipped into a peaceful sleep on a perfect night on the perfect place. He decided he needed to tell her how he really loved her and now was the best time to ever do that.
"Padme.." He waited for a response.
"Huh?" She answered.
"I love you so much, you know that right." He tightened his muscles as her touch was starting to permit a feeling.
"Of course I do, Anakin." She replied.
"I love you with everything I have, which isn't much, that's why I wonder why you chose me, I have nothing to offer but myself, I'm no knight in shinning armor." he explained to her
He had her full attention. "I don't need money or a huge house, All I want is you, and I love you for that, it wouldn't matter if we had nothing, because we would still have our love."
Anakin finally admitted what he had kept to himself since her loss. "Padme, you had me scared for a while, I felt like you didn't love me anymore, and that was the worst feeling I have ever felt."
"Anakin." She began. "I am so sorry, I love you with everything in me, and I will never stop, I love you to much to stop. The hardest thing I'd ever have to do To look you in the eyes and tell you I don't love you. To turn around and just walk away, pretend I don't love you. To show no emotion when you cry. We are meant to be." She paused for a moment as she saw tears flowing freely from his beautiful eyes.
"I was afraid to tell you how much you meant to me, I was afraid you would leave. But you deserve to know, I will NEVER stop loving you Anakin, I swear it." She finished, with a sigh coming from her and a silenced sniffle from Anakin.
"You mean just as much to me. I do love you this much, nothing will stop that. I would give the Galaxy for you." He leaned up and kissed her lightly on her cheek, getting a loving sigh out of her.
"Anakin I don't care that you used to be a slave, or where you are from, just as long as you love me." She now had tears flowing down her face
"Padme." Anakin stated as he sat up, bring her up in his arms. "I promise you, from the bottom heart, I will love you, till death do us part, and even after that." He sniffed holding back tears at the thought of losing her crossed his mind. "I'm telling you as this as a love and a friend."
"Anakin, I never knew you felt this much." Padme said in awe. "You are my light, you are wild and free, everything I ever wanted, and ever want."
Anakin turned to her face his face still wet with tears and kissed her with all the energy he had left in him that night. Wrapping her arm around to the back of his head Padme pushed herself closer to him. Pulling apart from the kissing embrace, she could see the mischievous look Anakin had smiling down at her.... Telling her that it was going to be another long night.
The hours passed in the short night as the couple held each other close throughout the peaceful night. As the soft breeze and the soothing waves passed across them they laid sprawled on the blanket on the soft sand. The sun once again began to rise for another day. Anakin rolled over grabbing Padme in his quick action, and getting a quick giggle before he gathered her in another kiss.
"Is it possible for the happiest man in the Galaxy to get even happier?" He asked her as they sat up in each others arms, ready to watch the sunrise.
"Well," She kissed him, and turned back to the Sunrise. "If it happened, then I guess it is." She whispered falling into yet another one of his consuming kisses.
