Ahsoka was mostly fine with being alone over the holidays. She was supposed to be resting in the Halls of Healing after the last mishap, and while she knew she should be grateful for the rest, she found that she was more restless than anything else. Ahsoka spent some time with the younglings, made a few calls to Master Plo before he went off to his own missions—back to the front.
So right now, Ahsoka was lonely. She watched snow drift down from the sky, gathered her knees up to her chest and watched the sun slowly set. She could visit Senator Amidala maybe, but she didn't want to bother her at this hour…especially now that the Senate seemed to be in a busier time than ever these days.
Ahsoka rested her chin on her knees. More than anything, she just didn't want to be bored and alone. Resting wasn't any fun when there was no one else around.
Ahsoka heard someone clear a throat behind her, and she turned around to find two familiar faces waiting by the door.
"You guys are back!" Ahsoka said, practically jumping off the bed. She grinned as Obi-Wan and Anakin reached her side first, probably in an effort to keep her from running, but she didn't really care. "I thought you guys wouldn't be back for another few weeks!"
"We got finished early," Anakin said loftily. "Because you know…best generals and all that."
Ahsoka laughed as Obi-Wan shot Anakin a semi-exasperated look. But all the same time, Obi-Wan looked glad when he re-focused on Ahsoka. "We were allowed to come home earlier," he explained, folding his hands behind his back. Judging by the way her grandmaster smiled, though, Ahsoka couldn't help but wonder if perhaps there were more reasons for why the two were back so early.
Home.
Ahsoka beamed. "I'm glad," she said, and the three walked out of the halls to actually celebrate the holidays.
