The rough movements of the ship as it came out of hyperspace made Siri Tachi feel sick. It did every time but now it was worse, always being in the darkness made her nauseous enough without adding to it. Everything felt like it was moving and spinning even when it wasn't. She heard the swoosh sound of the door opening and hoped that it was Adi Gallia or Qui-Gon Jinn and not Obi-Wan. She didn't have a personal disliking for his it was just being blind was bad but being helpless was worse. It wasn't something she thought she could take. But when she heard the voice she was surprised she wasn't mad.

"Siri, we're at the Temple." Obi-Wan Kenobi said in a soft but friendly voice.

"Thank you." She simply replied.

"Do you want me to help you to your quarters?"

"No, I can do it myself."

"Are you sure? It's a long way."

"Obi-Wan, I'll be fine." She said firmly, yet she also felt the urge to cry brewing.

"Alright…if you need anything you know my code." He closed.

Siri didn't say anything.

When she heard footsteps leave she got up out of her chair and stuck her hands out to feel her way to the door. She knew it was right in front of her but didn't know how far. After waving her hands around for a while she reached the touch pad to open it. When it opened she walked through and made a left, after that she had no idea how far down the cruiser's hall she was. So in not knowing she used her left hand to guide her down the corridor, unbeknown to her the hall came to an end and turned right. Realizing too late that she needed to change directions Siri smacked her face clear into the wall and fell backwards with a yell.

"Ow! Damn it." She spoke what she only thought was herself.

"Well, I see you're doing fine getting into the Temple." Obi-Wan smiled, leaning against the wall, watching her the whole time.

"I'm adjusting." She stated.

"'Adjusting'? To what, running into walls?" He joked. He then said seriously; "Siri, I promise I won't tell anyone that you asked for help."

Siri couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes any longer. She hugged her knees and cried openly. At this point she didn't care if Obi-Wan saw, she knew him well enough that he wouldn't make fun of her. In between sobs and sniffles she heard the footsteps of Obi-Wan draw near her. Though she couldn't see him she knew he sat down and was eye level with her. She turned in the general direction of him and used her hands to find his face. Before she did though he took her hands and placed them on his cheeks. She left them there for a few moments then locked her arms around the back of his neck. He put his arms around her and held her while she cried, soaking his tunic.

Obi-Wan wasn't at a loss for words he just didn't know if he should say anything, then Siri beat him to it.

"Why did this happen to me Obi-Wan, why?"

"I'm not sure…but the medics said that you would recover from it, that you'll get your sight back, be good as new." He tried to cheer her up.

"They said I 'should' not for sure. What if I don't get it back? I'll be useless; the Order would have no use for me." She began to cry a little harder.

"Of course they will, your Siri Tachi the most stubborn person I've ever met, you don't take 'no' for an answer." He now held her head in his hands and stared into her blank eyes. Tears had coated her face. Then he kissed her. A forbidden kiss. Surprisingly she kissed him back.

Siri moved her right leg so she strattled his body.

When she did so Obi-Wan pulled her closer to him to intensify the kiss. He ran his hands down the back of her tunic and under touching her bare skin.

His hands felt like ice on her flaming back. His every touch made her shiver, and she loved it, desired it, needed it, wanted it…and now.

"Obi-Wan?" She asked.

"Yeah?" He said in between mouthwatering kisses.

"Do we really have to go back to The Temple right now, can't we like, wait awhile?"

Obi-Wan stopped kissing her and pressed her forehead to his. "No, no we don't have to go back now." His eyes were closed as he panted from the erection he was getting and the irregular breathing from the kisses.

"Think we could go back to my room?"

"Are you sure? We don't have to if you don't want." He reassured her.

"You think I'd be asking you if I wasn't serious. You should know better then that Kenobi; I only say what I want." She smiled and could tell he was too by the way he was speaking.

"No, that wouldn't be like you at all." He stood up and helped Siri to her feet; he put one hand behind her back and the other under her legs scooping her up.

She laced her arms around his neck holding on. "I could get use to this, you know."

'What being blind? I thought you hated it."

"No, but the attention from you is nice."

"You always have my attention."

Obi-Wan stopped in front of the door, pressed the palm pad and walkthrough making sure the door closed behind him. He laid Siri on the bed and brushed a stray piece of hair from her face.

She reached out with her hand and touched his face as she smiled. "Kiss me Kenobi." Siri pulled Obi-Wan on top of her as she wrapped her arms around his neck. His warm breathe on her neck made her feel like there was no sight barrier between them, that she could look in his eyes like she used too when they were younger. As she got older she knew that she couldn't continue to have these feelings for him, her Jedi Master even once told her; "Everyone has hormones, even I did when I was your age. You just have to remind yourself that they are only hormones and that you are a Jedi." She didn't want to believe her but for a while she convinced herself that the further from Obi-Wan she was the easier it would be to stop them…but was she ever wrong…
