A/N: Yo, Yo, Yo! It's me! I am back, babe! Now it is the long-awaited (not really) festival! So I wanna say, my friend (not that is helping me on "A Master and An Apprentice") she ships Bea and Ahsoka! I know! "Why?" You are asking. Well, she wants it to be a real love triangle, not a love uh… line! So the next chapter there will be something like that. But I want you to know no Beasoka kisses... or will there? On with the FIC!
(Ahsoka's POV)
"You have never been to a festival before?" Lux asked, looking at me strangely.
"Well no. I am a Jedi, we do nothing for ourselves." I say giving him a smug look.
"Well, then this is a good place to start. This is like the biggest festival ever!" He said with wonder in his eyes.
"I thought you said you were fifteen not five!" I teased. He punched my arm.
"Shut up! And I am fifteen and a half! So, take that Cassie!"
"Oh, good one E," I said, finishing the sentence with my signature smirk. He rolled his eyes then scoffed.
"Come on Cassie, we are almost there," Lux said as he grabbed my hands and walked backward over a hill. "This is the festival!" He added as one of his hands let go of mine and went to present the festival.
"It's-it's beautiful…" I say in awe looking at all of the rides and hear all of the laughter.
"Shall we?" Lux said smoothly.
"Yes, we sha-" I was saying but Lux started to run and since he was holding my hand I had to run as well. We both started to laugh as the festival came closer and closer. "Bonteri you better slow down!" I say as he is picking up speed. "Lux…" I say trying to get him to stop as we are about to go down another hill. "Lux!" I said as he fell over and I still held his hand as well. We roll down the hill, we then land far from each other. I sit up and pat myself to see if I am hurt. Only a few bruises! Thank the force! Then I look at Mr. Bonteri. He's not moving! Crap! I ran over and tried to see if he was okay. "Lux? Lux are you alright?" His face is to the ground still laying there not moving.
I kneel to turn him over. He is pulling a stupid face at me and was laughing. I yelp in mock fury and take a swing at Lux. He catches my arm. I try to move it but I accidentally move us. We rolled over in the grass laughing. Suddenly, we become aware of the contact between us. We let go of each other quickly and sit up, looking away. His face was red as my turned lekku black! Lux stands up and holds out his hand to me. I take it. He pulls me up. And now we are easy together, not self-conscious anymore.
"Come on. Let's go to the festival!" Lux says.
"Yeah."
15 minutes later…
We walked to the front and found the ticket booth.
"Hello, sir what- Lux?!" A boy around Lux's age, maybe a bit older says from the booth. Then looked at me. "Dude, who is this?"
"Oh, Leo this is Cassie," Lux says, I roll my eyes and punch his arm.
"My name is Ahsoka." I said then looked at Lux "I thought we were going to a festival not chit-chatting at the front of it."
"Yeah, yeah. It's just me and her." He said taking credits out of pocket.
"Ok, that will be thirty-six credits." He said. Lux handed it to him then looked at me.
"You go in, I will catch up," Lux said looking at me.
"Oh, ok then."
Lux's Pov
Ahsoka leaves into the crowd of people and I look at my friend.
"Dude, she is HOT!" Leo said bluntly.
"Leo!" I yell looking at him with anger in my eyes.
"What am I wrong? Wait, oh did you use your charm on her already?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Oh, you know what I am talking about Mr. Playboy! Every girl on the planet would do anything just to be kissed by you. But you have not kissed a single girl." He says then noticed my face turning red.
"Uh… I have kissed a girl…" I said rubbing my neck.
"Let me guess, it was the hot girl. Am I right?"
"Well, um… yes. But it was so much more than a kiss. *sigh* Oh, it was magical…" I smile to myself remembering the kiss. I thought about the passion and all of the emotion in that long… magical kiss. Well if we are being technical it was a bunch of long kisses within a short period in time and we only escaped for breaths. And I held her in my arms as she was messing up my hair… And, Oi! When she said my name! She was so soft-spoken, so adorable!
"Wait so you're telling me you and her actually sl-"
"NO! No, no, no, no! Force, Leo! We just met!"
"Ooh… Wait how does Phoebe feel about this?" He asked, tilting his head.
"She is cool with it. Why?" I ask, What does Bea have to do with it?
"No reason… Anyway, you kind of have a line beside you so I don't want to be fired, so if you could just go that would be great."
"Oh ok well see you around!"
I went around looking for Ahsoka. Then I felt someone poke me on the back, I turned around and saw no one, that continued to happen for a bit then I turned around before the person tapped me. I see Ahsoka pretending she was not doing that.
"Oh, hi Lux. Didn't see you there…"
"Sure you didn't."
"Oh... uh, come on," Ahsoka said as she started to walk into the crowd some more.
"So what do you want to do first?" I asked following her.
"Well, what do you do at a festival?" She asked and stopped walking.
"Well, we could-"
"Lux!" A familiar feminine annoying voice was heard in the crowd. Oh, force not Nevaeh! She came out of the crowd and was walking towards me and Ahsoka. Ahsoka looked at me then looked at her. Ahsoka motioned for me to lean forward so I did.
"You want her to leave you alone?" Ahsoka whispered.
"Yes, very much."
"Ok, follow my lead." She whispered and then grabbed my arm and started giggling. What the heck is she doing? Nevaeh is right in front of us looking at me in her gross manner.
"Hi, Luxy! Funny seeing you here!" She then looked at Ahsoka. Ahsoka gave her a warning look and went up into my ear.
"Start laughing." She whispered I let out a soft laugh. "Good now bring me closer." Wait, what? I put my arm around her waist and pulled her closer as she instructed. "Wow, Lux you are a bold one!" She laughed laying one of her hands on my chest. "Oh you're still here… What do you want with my boyfriend?"
"You have a girlfriend? Since when?!" Nevaeh said, pissed. Ahsoka wrapped her arms around my head and kissed my cheek.
"For a few weeks now… Oh, do you know how good of a kisser Lux is? He is sooo good." She said kissing me was not like our first kiss, this was staged, not real… I mean it still was not half bad though! She broke apart and smiled then sighed. "Aww, I must be the luckiest girl in the universe." She looked at Nevaeh, "Would you leave now we are kinda in the middle of something!" She said as she pulled me into another kiss, I felt like the whole fair was watching us, and I felt Neveah quickly leave once Ahsoka made a few noises. Ahsoka then pulled away looking at me then started laughing.
"What?"
"I think everyone is staring at us." She said with a laugh. "I think I overdid it."
"No, I think it was perfect."
"Well, I thought you would like it," Ahsoka said, nudging me with her elbow. Crap she kriffing knows! Red alert! She knows!
"Oh… uh… you are amazing at acting," I say sweating.
"Oh… thanks." She said looking a bit disappointed and gave me a sad smirk.
"You're welcome." I looked at her as we walked around the festival in silence.
Hours have passed and nothing really to say. Then we went on the Ferris wheel. The sky was dark, this was the last thing we were going to do before we returned.
"Are you sure that thing is safe?" Ahsoka asked, looking at the Ferris wheel in fear.
"The padawan of the all famous 'Hero with no fear' is afraid of heights?"
"I am not afraid! I-i just don't like being in a small capsule that I have no control over in the sky where I could fall to my death if it shakes a bit."
"Well, you will be fine!"
"If you say so."
"Come on."
"But if we die, I will kill you." She said walking into the 'capsule' as she likes to call it.
"Fair enough." I said walking in the small 'capsule' next to her.
"Dang this is small."
"Well, it is made for two people," I said as we began to go into the sky.
She looked at the city in awe… her face was SO cute. Her eyes were so big, looking like she was a kid in a candy store.
"Have you ever seen anything so beautiful?" She said in wonder, looking at the landscape.
"No, no I haven't," I said looking at her… Why are you so, so beautiful? She looked at me and lightly smiled. Then the Ferris wheel stopped, it scared Ahsoka so much that she wrapped herself around my side. YASSSS! She looked up at me then got off of me.
"Sorry, it was a reflex!" She said turned around looking at the ground, flinching at the sight of the height.
"Well, I don't mind," I said trying to be smooth. I was not doing a good job at it.
"Oh well, in that case." She said putting her head on my shoulder, then closing her eyes. "Today was awesome! I have not had this much fun since… well, ever!" She added, opening her eyes, and smiled.
"Me too, Cas… me too."
We sat there in silence just us in peace. I bet you are all thinking right now one of these two things 'Awww! They are so cute together!' or you are not a teenage girl, that writes/reads fanfics in her spare time, 'Dude, you just met her! You don't know anything about her. Why are you kissing, flirting, and being playful with her?' My answer to that is: I don't know. I just have a strange feeling when I am with her… like… Well, I don't know! But I have a good feeling about her!
"Lux are you ok?" Ahsoka asked moving herself to where she could look at me.
"Just thinking, that's all."
"Ok then, um... Lux?"
"Yes, Cassie?"
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"For winning me the loth-cat plush earlier. It is so cute!" She said, grabbing the little push and hugging it.
"Well, you technically won it. I just tried, you actually won."
"Well, that might be true but, it was still sweet, so thanks."
"You are welcome, Cassie," I said as the ride stopped.
We exit and begin walking back after the awesome day we had but before we could exit the festival a Rodian female comes up to us.
"You are the son of Mina Bonteri, correct?" The woman asked.
"Yes. What do you want?"
"Is it true that this young Togruta is your girlfriend?" The Rodian woman asked. I looked at Ahsoka and her lekku turned dark then she looked at me with a smirk. I didn't see her mouth moving but I swear she said: "This is where the fun begins!"
"Why do you want to know? Are you interested?" Ahsoka asked sarcastically.
"Of course not! I just want to know if you are dating this… thing." She said looking at Ahsoka then at me. Ok, I am not dating Ahsoka but there is no need for a comment like that! What a jerk! I looked at Ahsoka and I could tell that she was beyond pissed.
"Wow, just wow! Just because I am not the same species as Lux doesn't mean I love him any less! And I hate how people like you think you are a kriffing JERK!" She yelled perfectly in character and ran off fake crying or real crying because, well, that comment was not a nice one.
"Don't you ever talk to her like that! Cas!" I yelled going after Ahsoka.
Ahsoka's Pov
I-i why do I feel this way? I know that scum is just being scummy but still… She acted like I was a monster! Just because I am not an all-powerful human! Well, she is not even a human so she has no kriffing-
"Cas, are you okay?" Lux asked, coming from behind me, I stopped walking so he could catch up.
"Yeah, I am fine," I lie, looking down at the loth-cat plush that was in my hands.
"Ahsoka, tell me the truth, are you okay?"
"Bonteri, I am fine. Why do you care?" I ask, trying not to sound rude.
"I care about you, Cas." He says putting his hand on my shoulder. "I know we just met and we are on opposite sides of the war, but I care about you, Ahsoka Casstopia Tano."
"I care about you too, Lux Eros Bonteri… I care about you a lot… it's weird."
"You're telling me? Come on let's get a lift." Lux said, removing his hand and started walking.
"Aye, aye captain!"
"I can't hear you!"
"Aye, aye captain!"
"OOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Lux yelled we both laughed.
In the guest quarters…
He is sooo sweet! And handsome, smart, kind, compassionate, funny, quirky… the list goes on and on… And I always have a weird feeling when I am with him. I don't know what the feeling is but, I like it! It feels like the type of thing that is in cheesy rom-coms like- love. Am I in l-love? That is against the code! I can't be in love, right?
"A million thoughts in my head
Should I let my heart keep listening?
Cause up 'til now I've walked the line
Nothing lost but something missing
I can't decide what's wrong, what's right
Which way should I go?If only I knew what my heart was telling me
Don't know what I'm feeling, is this just a dream?
Ah-oh, yeah
If only I could read the signs in front of me
I could find the way to who I'm meant to be
Oh-oh, if only
If only
If only
Every step, every word
With every hour I am falling in
To something new, something brave
To someone I, I have never been
I can't decide what's wrong, what's right
Which way should I go?
If only I knew what my heart was telling me
Don't know what I'm feeling, is this just a dream?
Oh-oh, yeah
If only I could read the signs in front of me
I could find the way to who I'm meant to be
Oh-oh, if only
Yeah
Am I crazy?
Maybe we could happen, yeah
Will you still be with me when the magic's all runout?
If only I knew what my heart was telling me
Don't know what I'm feeling, is this just a dream?
Oh-oh
If only I could read the signs in front of me
I could find the way to who I'm meant to be
Oh-oh
If only, yeah
If only, yeah
If only, yeah
If only, if only
If only"
I sit on the bed for a moment.
"If only…"
