Padmé smiled, leaning back in her chair. She chewed on her lower lip, that still tasted faintly like Anakin. An idea struck her. She got up from her seat, and picked up a silver comlink.
"Sabé?" She said into the device.
"Yeah, I'm here." Was the response.
"Put your work away." Padmé ordered. "I'm taking you out to lunch."
"Give me an hour, kay?" Sabé requested.
"All right, meet me in my rooms." Padmé ordered.
"Sounds like a plan."
"That's because it is." Padmé reminded.
"Duh."

"So what's the deal?" Sabé asked.
She and Padmé were at a restaurant at the top of the tallest building in Naboo. It was circular, and all of the walls were made of glass, so you could see the beautiful day below. One thing Padmé loved about the restaurant was that humans still worked there, not droids.
Padmé smiled. "You were right."
"Padmé if you were supposed to order me to stop working and treat me to lunch every time I was right I wouldn't get anything done and you would get really sick of having to pay to eat lunch with me." Sabé insisted.
"I don't think I could ever get sick of you, Sabé." Padmé laughed. "He asked me." She explained.
"Really." Sabé smiled, not sounding surprised at all.
"You already knew, didn't you?" Padmé asked, reading her friends expression.
"He told me he was going to. He asked me for advice." Sabé white lied.
"And you told him to kiss me?" Padmé asked in curiosity.
"HE KISSED YOU?!?!" Sabé exclaimed, her mouth hanging open.
Padmé blushed. "He did." She admitted.
"Oh Padmé, that's EXCELLENT!" Sabé exclaimed. "Yes! This is perfect! Everything is going so well!"
"I know." Padmé agreed. "It really is perfect."
However, what the girls didn't know was that someone was watching them, as always.
"Perfect?" They murmured. "We'll see about that."
"Sabé?" She said into the device.
"Yeah, I'm here." Was the response.
"Put your work away." Padmé ordered. "I'm taking you out to lunch."
"Give me an hour, kay?" Sabé requested.
