Chapter 5
"What's going on Dad?" Obi-Wan asked.
"I just want to discuss something with the two of you," Dan told him, quite seriously which made Obi-Wan and Siri share a look.
"About what Dad?" Siri probed whilst Dan took her guitar off her and she sat on the floor next to Obi-Wan.
To answer the question Dan handed them each a folder. Obi-Wan instantly recognised his music folder. He skipped to the last page with writing on to see if he had passed his grade 8, the last grade he had taken. To his surprise he had passed with a near perfect mark.
See his surprise and correctly guessing what his son was looking at, Dan laughed whilst opening his arms to Obi-Wan who accepted the hug. "I'm so proud of you."
Obi-Wan smiled and sat back down on the floor. "And you as well," Dan told Siri whilst sweeping her up into a hug.
After putting Siri down, Dan considered them both very seriously. Qui-Gon shot Mace a confused look to which Mace just shrugged.
"Obi-Wan?" Dan asked.
"Yes Dad?"
"What lessons do you have on friday morning?"
"Double French with Uncle Xanatos and Litrature with mum," Obi-Wan told him.
"You're not behind in either are you?" Dad checked.
"No Dad!" Obi-Wan was shocked and let it be known in his tone of voice.
Qui-Gon shot him a sharp look.
"Good," Dan brushed over his son's tone. "You'll be coming with me into Della."
"Della?" Adi questioned.
"A town about an hours ride away be speeder," Dan told her. "And Siri you'll be coming with me two weeks after that."
"Good! I need to practice!" Siri told her Dad.
"You'll be fine," Obi-Wan told her.
"So will you. What was your last score?"
Obi-Wan moved his music folder well out of Siri's reach. "Doesn't matter," he mumbled whilst looking at the ground.
"Not gonna work!" Siri told him! "You're my older brother and i know you're not going for a re-sit! You never fail grades! Now what did you get for your grade 8?"
"27," Obi-Wan sighed.
"27 out of 30? For your grade 8? You definately don't need to worry about your grade nine on Friday!"
Obi-Wan brust out into laughter. "Thanks Siri," he said leaning over and pulling his younger sister into a tight hug.
"And you?" he asked after they broke apart. "What did you get for your grade 4?"
"22."
"That's great!"
"Thanks!" Siri's face broke into a smile.
Mace chuckled slightly and opened his heart to the both of them. They jumped up and wrapped their arms tightly around the godfather that they had almost lost.
Ruffling Obi-Wan's hair slightly, Mace gave the boy a push towards Qui-Gon. "Go on you two, no doubt you've got something to do. Homework or training or something." Obi-Wan groaned once Mace had finished speaking to be greeting by a stern look from Qui-Gon who led him out of the room.
Once in the corridor Qui-Gon gave his apprentice a sharp cuff around the ear. "Less of the attitude and cheek please, young man."
"Yes Master," Obi-Wan said politely.
"It doesn't hurt anyone for you to be polite, especially to your elders," Qui-Gon continued.
"Yes Master," Obi-Wan drifted off into his own thoughts.
When they reached their quarters Qui-Gon was still droaning but Obi-Wan had switched off completely.
"Obi-Wan, are you listening to me?!" Qui-Gon used the stern tone for Obi- Wan's benefit.
"No Master," Obi-Wan hung his head out of shame, he knew that he should be paying attention, one day it could save his life, but he was only a teenager afterall.
Qui-Gon lifted Obi-Wan's chin and held him there, so the boy had to meet his gaze. Looking straight into his apprentice's eyes Qui-Gon saw the sincirtey blazing out of them and smiled.
"Play your grade 9 piece for me," he asked whilst holding out the lad's guitar to him.
Obi-Wan smiled, took the guitar and settled down to play. Two hours later he was still playing but Qui-Gon didn't mind. His apprentice was good, even he could tell that even though he didn't have much of a clue about music.
Right up until last minute on Friday mornign Obi-Wan was practising his piece. Qui-Gon could tell he was nervous and pulled the boy into a tight hug. He'd be fine and Qui-Gon knew it.
Bruck came round before lessons started for the day. The two hugged each other tightly and Bruck walked with them down to the hall to meet with Dan. "Don't forget to get the work for me!" Obi-Wan told Bruck.
"I won't" Bruck told him.
Dan came along for Obi-Wan a few minutes later and after another hug from Qui-Gon Obi-Wan and his dad left.
They would return later that day but Obi-Wan wouldn't know his results for a while.
Please, please review!!! *gets down on knees and begs*
