Morning came, and Anakin awoke to an empty room. He was feeling much better, despite all that had happened, and so he decided to get up. He climbed out of the bed, and found a clean shirt and pair of pants on the chair Padmé had been sitting in. He looked around, spotted a bathroom, and went in there to change. Once he was done, he went back out into the room, and padded into the hall.
It was deserted. There was no one he could hear, or see. Tuning himself into the Force, he reached out, and looked around. He searched for someone, Padmé or Obi-Wan. No, not there. He thought to himself, as he scanned the Palace. Or there. How about…Aha! There you are! Anakin had found both Padmé and Obi-Wan in the same room. He located the room with the Force, and headed in that direction.
Anakin found them in the same room, and almost pushed the door open until he heard a bit of the conversation.
"What were you thinking, Master Kenobi?!?!" Padmé shouted. Anakin pressed his ear to the door.
"For the last time, Amidala, I don't know! One minute I was training with him, and the next I had him pinned to the floor! Do you really think that I did it on purpose?" Obi-Wan exclaimed.
"How am I supposed to know, Kenobi? I was walking by and I heard Anakin begging for help. Did you think that I was going to let it by? Absolutely not! Anakin is my friend." Padmé stressed the word 'friend' as she spoke.
"I understand that you are worried, Your Highness, as am I. Do you think that I wouldn't be? Anakin is like a son to me! I am just as shocked as you are by the whole ordeal." Obi-Wan insisted.
"Ordeal? Ordeal? Is that all you can call it! You almost killed your own Padawan! Do you know what could have happened if I hadn't shown up?" Padmé yelled.
There was no response.
"You would have killed him! Then he'd be gone from both of our lives! How would that make you feel?" She was nearly screaming now, and Obi-Wan didn't make any response.
"I'll tell you how you would feel! You'd feel lost. Horrible. You would know that you are a bad person! I'm onto you Obi-Wan. You may have everyone else fooled, but not me. I may be a little girl, but I am NOT as ignorant as you believe." Padmé stated, and Anakin heard footsteps walking towards the door. He jumped back, as Padmé put a hand on the door, and looked back at Obi-Wan.
"I'm watching you, Kenobi. Always." Padmé promised, and stepped out the door.
