Chapter 3: Time for breakfast
It was early in the morning and Padme was already awake. This was normal for Padme, she would wake up around 7am to start her daily routine. First she would prepare the children's pack lunch. Next she would prepare breakfast.
But today was different. Today was the start of the twin's punishment and Padme already had in mind the one thing that her mischievous children hated.
A scruffy looking Anakin appeared at the kitchen door. He had awoken only a few minutes ago. He was also disappointed to find that Padme was already awake andnot curled up beside him in bed.
He stood there in silence for awhile watching Padme flutter around the kitchen. She's so beautiful Anakin thought to himself with a slight smile.
"Morning," He said softly making Padme jump.
She turned round to see her rugged looking husband leaning against the door.
"Good morning," She replied smiling.
Anakin walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?" Anakin said looking down into his wife's eyes.
"Yes, all the time." Padme answered moving her hands up to his face.
"Well that's because it's true." Anakin whispered as Padme pulled his face down towards hers. Their lips met for a kiss.
"Ewwwww... Get a room," Leia moaned as she pushed past her parents.
The couple parted, they looked at Leia then at each other.
"Excuse me young lady?" Anakin asked.
Before Leia could answer Luke raced into the kitchen nearly knocking Anakin over. Luke dived onto his chair and grabbed the Jedi-O's cereal box and the jug of blue milk. Then he started shovelling the cereal into his mouth.
"Morning Luke," Padme said.
"Morning," Luke answered with a mouthful of food.
"Your such an animal." Leia complained.
"I know you are but what am I," Luke answered back spitting half-eaten food all the over the table.
Shaking his head an annoyed Anakin took his seat at the table.
Minutes passed, Luke continued stuffing cereal into his mouth while Leia slurped her blue milk loudly much to the annoyance of her parents.
"So um..." taking another mouthful of cereal "what's for lunch today mom?" Luke asked.
"Your stomach, that's all you think about Luke," Leia grumbled.
"Not true!"
"I don't no" Padme quickly answered before the twins got into an unnecessary debate about Luke's stomach.
"What do you mean, you don't no?" Leia asked
"Yeah you always make our lunches...unless..." Luke butted in before Padme could answer.
"Please don't say Dad is doing our lunches," Leia moaned
"Hey what's wrong with me making the pack lunches?" Anakin asked trying not to sound hurt by his daughter comment.
"What's right with it?" Leia replied.
"I'll have you know young lady, when I was on long missions with..."
"With Obi-wan I did all the cooking, we no!" Luke answered mocking his father.
"LOOK!" Padme yelled over the top of the noise her family were making.
"I don't no what your having for lunch today because today your having school dinners."
Luke spat out he's cereal in shock while Leia spurted out her milk.
"You can't be serious?" Leia worriedly asked.
"Absolutely serious," Padme replied trying not to grin.
"Mom, they put the sickroom next to the canteen for a reason," Luke exclaim.
"Yeah Luke's right. Also that's where all the low lives go for lunch. You surely don't want us mixing with them." Leia continued.
"That's not true I had Jedi dinners at the temple." Anakin mistakenly said realising he should stay out of the argument. Leia glared at her father.
"Your father is right. The food can't be that bad." Padme replied knowing to well the children hated school dinners.
"But Mom, the food in our school is so bad that theteachers hand out second helpings as punishment." Luke whinged.
"Well you two will get your fair share then." Padme responded, smiling to herself.
The twins were speechless, they couldn't think of anything else to say to get their mother to change her mind.
"Right, I'm going to get ready for my meeting, have a nice day at school." Padme said cheerfully as she got up from the table. She walked round to Anakin and kissed him on the cheek.
"I'll see you later."
"Don't work too hard." Anakin replied as he watched Padme leave the kitchen
Both twins turned to look at their father.
"Dad, Mom is joking right?" Leia desperately asked.
"Yeah she wouldn't do that to us would she?" Luke added.
Anakin's smile turned into a laugh. He got up and clear his plate then left the kitchen.
Luke and Leia sat there in silence both of them were lost for words.
This is the worst day of my life Leia thought.
"I know what you mean" Luke answered.
Both twins got up and left the table to get ready for school. Little did they know the day was about to get worse.
