PART 1 HAS BEEN EDITED
Yeah so I originally didn't plan on doing a follow-up and technically speaking it isn't really a follow up since the setting is different but I edited chapter 1 and turned all the big changes I wanted to do on it into this. Which is why I'm posting it here instead of as a new work.
The setting in this one is a modern AU.
Obi-Wan is 35 and Anakin 29, Obi-Wan is a professor and Anakin a mechanic. They've been together for seven years and married for four.
Hope you'll enjoy!
As routinely as his day went, fatigue had the ability to make everything absolutely draining. The usual slight disturbances turned into catastrophes he wished he could avoid by staying in bed.
His warm and comfy bed, which suddenly dipped as Obi-Wan joined him on it.
"Everything alright, love?"
Getting over his reluctance to move his face from the pillows he currently chose as his hiding place, Anakin pushed himself up into a sitting position before lunging at his partner.
"Let's stay at home forever, babe."
Chuckling, the professor gently patted his husband's head. "You would miss seeing everyone too much, and we both have work." Groaning at the reminder, Anakin looked up to familiar blue eyes with a pout.
"However, we can spend the weekend at home. I'm sure the girls will understand and we can take a raincheck for the cinema." offered Obi-Wan as he played with strands of the golden crown of hair currently resting on his lap.
Hearing the proposition, Anakin suddenly perked up. "Really?"
He hadn't finish nodding that his husband tackled him down on the mattress. Hovering above his suddenly disheveled partner, Anakin beamed. "I just feel the need to point out you're the best husband in the entire galaxy."
Fondly rolling his eyes at the younger man's exuberance, Obi-Wan happily parted his lips when his eager partner leaned down to thank him in his own way.
Parting after a few minutes, Anakin took a moment to stare at his husband. His flushed cheeks, his freckles, his azure eyes. He bathed in the loving gaze focused on him and felt his week's worth of worries evaporate.
"Marrying you is the best decision I ever made." Loving the way Obi-Wan's widened at the confession, Anakin grinned. "Mind if I do it again?"
Confusion etched on the freckled face beneath him and the mechanic couldn't resist pressing a kiss on the tip of his partner's nose.
"What-"
Thumb brushing against the professor's kiss-swollen lips, Anakin stared straight into his eyes.
"Marry me again?"
Albeit muffled by an overjoyed kiss, Obi-Wan's eager yes still sounded like the sweetest melody to Anakin's ears.
the starting point was like chap 1 so "character A feels super tired and character B cheers them up" and I ended with a second marriage proposal but oh well
i also snickered like a dumbass when i wrote "straight into his eyes" because well it's hilariously inaccurate ya know
Hope you liked it!
