After the kiss, the two of them made an extreme effort of avoiding each other, and did a good job of it.

Anakin slowly walked through the halls towards the dinning area. Taking a quick glance at the holoclock he noticedhe was pretty late. Walking as fast as he could Anakin eventully found the dinning area.

Obi-Wan impatiently sat at the long table hoping that Anakin would come soon. Just as he was about to get up and find him, in came Anakin.

Anakin walked down towards the only seat left, which was oppisite Obi-wan, who gave him a look that clearly said, 'Your Late'. Frowning, he sat down and started eating. He noticed that Padme had been watching him for quite some time, Looking up, He smiled at her. *God, shes beauiful* he thought. Sighing he got back to eating, while vaguly listening to the conversations. He only started fully listening when he heard his name mentioned. 'So, young Skywalker, I hear you are the one with the big reputation around here.' Bail said. Anakin smiled nervously. *Man What the hells wrong ! Get a grip, your nervous, AND sweeting like hell ! What the hell's wrong skywalker !* Anakin thought angrily to himself. 'Son, is it true that you were only Ten when you destroyed the trade federation ship ?' Bail asked. *You know, I really don't like you !* Anakin smiled. 'yes, its true' The conversation went on, and Anakin did his best to try and stear it away from him.

Padmes gaze never left Anakin. *Hmm.... he doesn't seem to like attention, I thought people with his kind of personality WOULD like attention.* The feeling of his lips on hers ran through her. *Don't think like that, its not going to get you anywhere.*

The night went on, and Anakin did his best to look and sound interested. *Damn, can't these people talk about anything not related to politics ?*

*****************************

'Goodnight Mi'lady' Anakin bowed. 'I'm glad your back Ani, I really missed you.' Padme smiled brightly as she stood at her door. 'I'm glad I'm back too' he replied. 'Padme, I....' he began. 'No Ani, don't' She looked really uncomfortable. Anakin looked at her knowing that he had to go on. 'Padme, we really talk about this' he said 'No, we don't' Her voice was Heavy. 'We do' he persisted. 'No' She looked down 'Alright, No talking' He moved forwards, wrapping his arms around her, he pressed his lips to hers. Through a long kiss, Anakin proceded into the room, closing the door behind them. With the weight of his body against hers, he pressed her up against the wall. 'We shouldn't be doing this' She breathed heavily. He nodded agreeing. 'I know.' It seemed so short, yet so quick, the kisses went on forever. *OH MY GOD !* she throught as she realised what they were doing. *STOP AT ONCE* a part of her yelled. *NO ! DON'T STOP !* the other part screamed.

Anakin began to trail kisses down her neck *DO you have any idea what your doing ?* he asked himself, about to anwer himself, his throughts were suddenly interupted when she shoved him away.

'Stop it Anakin STOP' she yelled, Anakin just stood there stunned and confused. 'Anakin, What....We....' She couldn't find the words. Pacing around she tried to unjumble the mess her mind had become.

Anakin just watched her for a while, but he soon got annoyed by her pacing. Grabbing her by the sholders he stopped her. 'Padme, Calm down' he said. 'Just calm down.' He looked her in the eyes. 'CALM DOWN !' She shreiked. 'YOUR TELLING ME TO CALM DOWN !, Ani, you have GOT to be kidding. Don't you have any ideas what we have done ? DO YOU ? ? ?'

'Padme, I'm not dumb. Yes I do know. Really, Padme, you can't hide it forever. I see it in your eyes, your actions. Can't you just for once, act on your feelings, not hide them ?' Anakin looked straight into her eyes, capturing her gaze, and holding it. 'No, Ani I can't Its, its just to dangerous.' She held back tears. *Gods ! Hes grown SO much. Why does he have to be like this. Why !* 'Why, Padme, Why ?' He asked, his voice urgent. 'Why ?'

'Its forbidden Ani, This between us' She sighed sadly. 'Its forbidden, We can't It'll destroy us, it would contridict everything that we live and stand for. It'll take us to a place we just couldn't go ! I'm a senator, you're a jedi, we live to very different lives.' Anakin knew she was telling the truth. 'I know it is. But it would also destroy us to deny that we feel this. Padme, Either way we'll get destroyed.'

'What do you mean ?' Padme was confused. 'I mean it would destroy us emotionally' He replied.
