The sun peaked over the horizon in radiant gold beams as birds chirped pleasntly outside in the rich green trees. The breeze danced with the flowers in the valleys and fields. Water rustled and flowed in streams and rivers that led to the mystifying waterfalls. There was peace over all things living or inanimate, in all beauty of the young day.
Padme watched all of this come to life on the balcony which was gracefully covered with ivy and fresh growing flowers. Her silk nightdress swayed a little with the breeze as she covered her bare shoulders with a white lacey shawl. Naboo was such a perfect place. There is always calm instead of panic and peace instead of chaos. She loved her home. Watching the sunrise brought back memories of being a little child. Her mother would be up already making breakfast and Padme would sit with her sister Sola outside until their mother called them in. She wished for those days again, when life wasn't so complicated or so.dangerous.
The morning was Padme's favorite part of the day. All the world's problems would be hidden and time allowed her to think. She had been doing a lot of thinking lately. Everything had fallen apart so quickly. The Senate, the people, practically the whole universe! And.her ability to say no. As a queen it was easy to rule her duty over her emotions, it was a must in order to be a good politician. As a senator she had spent so much time arguing nothing was as important as getting her point across. Padme remembered all those sessions of arguing fiercely, passionately. The Senate seem to be losing their minds or maybe they just didn't care anymore. She had to work hard to make them see that people's lives are at stake.didn't they realize that?
All this time Amidala stood up high as Padme was buried deep within. Her career was the major role in her life and everything else took a backseat. Her personal life was put on hold so that she could make a difference in the universe. And when that was denied because her safety was in question she was forced to live as a regular person. She hated it. But time took an odd twist. Anakin came back into her life. He's no longer the curious child but an ambitious young man. For the first time Padme felt her heart beat. She hated this feeling. The feeling of her pounding heart screaming to reach out and hold Anakin in her arms. Love. Padme denied this feeling.their love would be impossible, a scandal. Against the laws of the Jedi code and against her morals. She couldn't live a lie.
But she couldn't live without him either.
"Good morning m'lady," Anakin smiled at breakfast that morning.
"Good morning Anakin," she smiled faintly. It was coming back again.
Silence followed. It was suffocating. Padme felt like all the air was being taken from her, she wanted to tell him so badly. But her reason is stubbornly strong against her will.
"It's very lovely today," Anakin said, trying to start a conversation.anything to break the silence.
Padme stared at her half eaten plate. She was scared to speak. Scared of what she would say.
"I have to leave this afternoon," he continued. "Obi-wan is probably waiting for me."
"Yes, you should go back to Coruscant," she said softly. "They need you there."
"Right," he sighed.
They stopped talking.
They walked down the cobblestone pathway where Anakin's speeder sat. He was going to ride into Theed and leave for Coruscant there. Padme looked up at him, memorizing his face. The feeling remained since breakfast bottled up inside of her.
"Well, I guess this is it," Anakin said at the end of the pathway. He looked into her eyes sadly. He didn't want to leave her and wished she felt the same.
"Good-bye Padme."
He placed a kiss on her hand and turned his back to climb into the speeder.
"Anakin.I."
He turned to face her again, tears were falling down her cheeks.
"Don't leave me!" she cried and threw her arms around him.
Anakin held her close as she continued to cry.
"Anakin please don't leave! I love you! I love you so much and I can't stand hiding it any longer! I need you and I know you need me.I just love you so much and."
"Marry me," he whispered.
Padme looked up at him again. He used his good hand to wipe away her tears. "What?" she asked.
"Marry me. Then we'll always be together. I love you Padme. I always have and always will. Please marry me?"
"Yes!" she laughed and kissed him.
He kissed her back and they stood holding each other. It didn't make sense and it wasn't going to be easy but that didn't bother them. At the moment they were in a perfect state, in a perfect world that melted and danced around them.
Padme and Anakin gave into their love and for once there was no pain, no sorrow, no worry. The crumbling universe could fall apart entirely but they would still be there, embracing one another, loving until the end of time. Just two people.and one love.
