Disclaimer: I own nada, it's all Lucas's. Damn. On with the story!
Senator Padme Amidala was taking care of some work she had leftover from her day in the Senate when she heard the familiar sound of her entry pad. The door opened and her husband Anakin burst in. He tugged Padme to her feet and swung her around before kissing her soundly.
"Ani, what has gotten into you?" she laughed as her husband finally released her.
"You've heard about the civil war on On'ab, right?" he asked her.
"Yes, I have," Padme agreed. "Go on!"
"Well, Supreme Chancellor has recommended a group of Jedi be sent to work out a peace treaty. There aren't many Jedi on Coruscant because of the war, but the Council has appointed three Jedi to this mission. And they chose me!"
"That's wonderful, Ani!" Padme exclaimed.
Anakin was grinning from ear to ear. "Tonight, we celebrate!" he exclaimed. Padme's heart was singing as Anakin bounded out on his way back to the Temple. His outbursts had been becoming darker and more violent of late, and she was beginning to get frightened. This mission was an answer to her prayers - her husband was coming back to her.
~Later that night~
Candlelight flickered off the walls and the faces of Anakin and Padme as they enjoyed a quiet meal together, and Anakin told her all about his upcoming mission, and Padme shared the goings-on in the Senate. As they started dessert, Padme noticed Anakin staring pensively into the fire. "Anakin is everything all right?" she inquired softly.
Without looking at her, Anakin asked, "Padme, are you happy? With me, I mean?"
Padme was startled, but replied, "Of course I am, Ani. Why are you asking?"
"I know it's not easy, not telling anyone about us..." Anakin started before he was silenced by a kiss.
"I have no regrets, my love," she whispered. Anakin grinned boyishly before claiming her mouth with a passion that left Padme breathless. He then picked her up effortlessly and carried her into the bedroom. Anakin's love- making that night was fierce and possessive. It frightened Padme at first, until Anakin's lips and hands drove all thought from her..
A/N: Yay the first chapter is up! More will be up soon, I promise! Anyway, you know the drill people. Read and review! I want to know what you think.
