The next day passed without incident, Anakin waking up early to meditate with Adeana, and the news that the queen would need the Jedi to go with her to a large celebration tonight.

Anakin was on edge all day, he was already ready to go and it wasn't even noon yet.

"You do know, Anakin, that nerves are something you will have to over come in order to be a Jedi." Obi-Wan said as he sat on the floor in their suit, meditating.

"It's not nerves, master. It's anticipation." Anakin said in return, starting to pace.

Obi-Wan opened his eyes and followed Anakin with them.

"There's another thing you'll have to overcome."

Anakin ignored Ob-Wan and kept pacing.

"Why don't you go and see what Adeana's up to?" Obi-Wan asked out of the blue.

Anakin stopped his pacing. "Why?"

Obi-Wan shrugged. "I just thought it would give you something to do, your beginning to wear on my nerves."

"I thought Jedi weren't suppose to have nerves." Anakin said, razing an eyebrow.

"Oh, Jedi have nerves, they just know haw to control them." Obi-Wan said, standing. "Now will you please leave? I can't concentrate with you in here passing up and down."

Anakin bowed his head to Obi-Wan and walked out of the room. He didn't know where Adeana was but he decided to try the balcony. She was there, standing at the railing, looking down over it into the water three stories below. Anakin walked up to stand next to her, also looking down into the water where two swans were swimming idly. Nether spoke for a moment, both just happy to be in the others company, thoe nether would ever admit it.

"Did Obi-Wan send you out to?" Adeana finally asked.

"Yeah, he said I was bothering him."

"That's what Master Windu said to me."

Anakin put his arms onto the rail, clasping his hands together.

"Are you looking forward to tonight?" He asked.

"Yes! I've been about to go mad in boredom!"

"Funny, you don't show it."

Adeana turned to Anakin. "That's because I've been trained in how to hide my feelings." She said, looking straight in his eyes.

Anakin felt himself being pulled into her gaze, she was so beautiful, did she mean what he thought she meant by that last statement? Anakin slowly began to lean forward, not really knowing why. Adeana closed her eyes, her lips parting slightly. Anakin's lips brushed against hers lightly, as if he were asking for permission.

Not knowing why, Adeana tilted her head up and waited for his lips to meet hers again. When they did she allowed her self to accept the kiss, allowed her self to let everything else just melt away, everything but Anakin and the soft touch of his lips.

When Anakin felt Adeana kiss him in return he tilted his head to one side and kissed again, this time a little deeper, a little more passionate.

Realizing what was happening Adeana put her hands to Anakin's strong chest and pushed away from him. Her face was flushed and he breath was coming a little harder than normal.

"We can't do this." She whispered, not knowing why she whispered.

Anakin stood up straight, his face flushed as well, he looked at the ground, as was Adeana.

"Your right, I- I'm sorry." He turned and hurried out off of the balcony, his mind whirling.
