Hello everyone! Sorry for not updating sooner! Really sorry! Enjoy this new chapter! ( Sorry Badkidoh )

Richard Cypher : We all know that Anakin has a temper. :)

Animekingmike : Quotations fixed !

Padmé opened her eyes to see her husband gently rubbing her belly. She smiled and passed a hand through the young man hair. He smiled at her and leaned down to kiss her.

" Good morning, Angel" he said softly.

" Good morning ,my Jedi knight."

Anakin shrugged.

" I'm not a Jedi anymore."

" You will ever be my Jedi knight." She smiled.

They kissed and were interrupted by the beeping of the comlink. Anakin groaned and reached for the comlink.

" Skywalker."

"Anakin, good morning." Obi-Wan greeted.

" Good morning, Master."

" I arrived just now, can I stop by ?"

" Of course Master. You will always be welcome here."

" Then I'm on my way."

Anakin turned off the comlink. Padmé sighed.

" What it is, Angel ?"

" I don't want you to leave, but I have to let you go."

" I'm not going anywhere."

She smiled softly and kissed him tenderly.

" You should get dressed or you will be late."

" We have a lot of time, Angel."

" Obi-Wan will arrive shortly." she replied tersely.

" Why are you so tense ? I'm not going anywhere before mid-morning."

" Well, Obi-Wan doesn't need three hours to go to your apartment, even if he respects speed limits."

" He's coming here, Angel."

Padmé blinked.

" What do you mean ?"

" He will meet us here."

" Us ?"

" Yes. Well... If you want to stay in bed, you can but..."

" Why is Obi-Wan coming here ?"

" I asked him to. I want him to know now. I'm tired of hiding it from him."

" When did you asked him to do that ?" Padmé asked in surprise.

" Yesterday night."

She slapped him in the chest. " And you didn't tell me !"

" I didn't ?"

" No!"

"I forgot then."

" You forgot ! Your Master is coming here and you weren't going to tell me ! What were you thinking!"

She slapped him in the chest again.

" Padmé, please could you stop slapping me!"

" Oh! I'm sorry my love, Did I hurt you ?"

" That was your purpose, isn't it ?"

" Yes It was!" she replied, slapping him again.

" Who would have thought that I will be a beaten husband ?" the young man muttered.

Padmé glared at him.

" I'm sorry my Angel, but if you wish to slap me all morning, you will have to do it while we're getting dressed or Obi-Wan will find us still in night clothes."

" Fine! "

She got out of the bed as fast as she could in her pregnunt state and headed to the refresher. Anakin smiled and waited for his turn to go take a shower, not wanting to disturb his angry wife. She finally got out and get dressed, avoiding her husband's appreciative gaze. The young man had just put his left boot on when the doorbell rang. 3PO got the visitor and lead him to the living room. Anakin and Padmé found him on a sofa. The Jedi Master turned his head and smiled. Padmé let out her breath.

" Welcome, Master!" Anakin said.

" I'm not your Master anymore, Anakin." the bearded man replied.

" Did 3PO offer you a drink ?"

" Yes. Good morning, Padmé." he said turned toward her and bowing.

" Good morning Obi-Wan. Congratulations on your mission on Utapau."

" How did you do it, by the way ? " Anakin asked, curious.

Obi-Wan smiled. " In an uncivilized way. "

Anakin raised an eyebrow. His master laughed shortly and waved his hand.

" So you wanted to speak ?"

" Yes. Well, you know that we're having a baby girl..." Anakin started.

" Baby boy." Padmé interrupted.

" Baby girl!" the soon-to-be father replied.

" Baby boy!" she countered.

" It's both." Obi-Wan intervened, completly forgotten by the two.

" Both ? How can a baby can be a boy and a girl in the same time ?" Anakin asked, confused.

" When it's twins." Obi-Wan smiled.

" Twins ?" Padmé asked.

Obi-Wan nodded. Padmé stayed still for a moment then slapped her husband on the shoulder.

" Why didn't you tell me !"

" I didn't know! We wanted the surprise, remember ? Besides, the med droid could have told you! "

" You could have felt it with the Force ! " she replied.

" If I did, I would have known the gender! Your med droid would have told us without revealing the gender!"

" You could have asked !"

" How ? You told me only ten days ago and I never had the time to meet him. You had seven months to do it and you didn't!

" Fine! You are right and I am wrong ! Happy ?" she shouted.

Anakin blinked.

" I am ?"

" Yes !"

Anakin smiled widely.

" Master! I'm right !" he said happily to the bearded man who had seen the exchange, not believing his eyes.

" I'm happy for you, Anakin." he answered, cautious." So you're having twins, but I feel that there's something else."

" Yes, we...We are married. Since the beginning of the war. I'm sorry that I didn't tell you sooner but I have no choice.

Obi-Wan thought about It for a moment.

" Are you mad at me, Master ? " Anakin asked, feeling the surprise in the Jedi Master.

" I'm surprised, that's for sure. I have always knew there was something between you two, but I would have never suspected this."

" I wanted to tell you but with the Code, I couldn't." Anakin explained. " It doesn't really matter anymore, I'm no longer a Jedi so..."

" So you choose to leave ?"

" Yes, even with the changes that will come, I won't stay. Maybe I will come back to the Temple to test the children if they want to become Jedi, but that's all.

" You want them to become Jedi ?"

" If they want to yes. But I won't force them."

" Nobody forces somebody to stay in the Order."

" That's were you're wrong Master. Think about it. Children are taken away from their family at a young age to be trained as Jedi. They're not old enough to be able to choose whether they want to or not. Then, after they know nothing but the temple life, how could you quit everything you have ever known for something you don't know anything about? All the people you know have told you that it wasn't safe. Only a fool would quit a safe world and even if he did, the Temple would forever be the safest place to him."

Obi-Wan thought about it for a moment.

" Anakin, to raise a Force-sensitive child can be hard."

" My mother did." he countered.

" Not all women can do it."

" As not every mother can do It with non-Force-sensitive children."

" Force-sensitive children are more difficult to raise."

" So those children should have to be privileged ? Believe me Master, lots of children would kill to have the Temple life."

" I believe you. But how can you judge the Order's way ? You have been a part of it." Obi-Wan replied.

" I had another experience before that. I experienced the two sides of the Galaxy. The Jedi side and the other. And guess what ? The Jedi side is the smallest and it has a great influence on the galaxy. A minority has more power. Is that Justice, Master ? Not to me. Listen to the Force, Master. Understand me, Master. Not the Light side of the Force, but also the Dark side."

" You start to worry me, Anakin." Padmé interrupted.

" I didn't explain it the good way. You said that nothing is black or white. There's grey. So why do you say the Force is black and white. The force is life. Life is not good or bad. It is. So the Force is not black or white, not only that. There's something between. And the Force wants us to be on the middle.

" I'm not sure it does, Anakin."

" Why ? Because it's against the Jedi teachings ?"

" How can you be in the middle ?"

" Simple. Have feelings. Allow yourself to love, to have anger, to have hate, but control them. Don't let them interfere with what you are doing. Like everybody in the galaxy.

Obi-Wan dug in the Force. What Anakin was saying was so out of the way he knew.

" Master. I can make you face this. I can make you know what the Force really wants, but know that it killed Master Nu."

Obi-Wan raised an eyebrow.

" She was to afraid of leaving the life she had always known. With you, it's different. When you left the Order, you foresaw that the Code was wrong. That's why the Force choose you as my master. "

The elder man looked at the younger straight in the eyes ,then nodded.

"Padmé, I would prefer that the twins stayed out of this."

The senator nodded and went out of the room. Anakin sat comfortably on the sofa and began. Obi-Wan closed his eyes and suddenly felt a rush of fear coming through him. He blocked it but somehow, he understood that blocking was not a good idea, so he let the fear rush through him, controlling its speed and its intensity. Then when he was only a fearful core he thought about what Anakin said. He decided to accept it and the fear diminished to be reduce to a core. A core that was to little to take control, but big enough to make its presence known. Then the Force whispered to him what her will was. And it was what Anakin had just said. Obi-Wan had taken oath to always follow the will of the Force, so he would now. He opened his eyes to see that Anakin was radiant. He smiled at his brother.

" So, how do you think that we will be able to convince the Council to change iy's point of view ?"

" We will attend to the meeting. We will succeed." Anakin smiled.
