Chapter One

Obi-Wan Kenobi stepped down from the transport and looked around. Where was she! he wondered anxiously. He knew that she was always here to meet him. Obi-Wan smiled when he remembered his wife's beautiful face and that she said that she had good news.
Obi-Wan turned to Anakin Skywalker, his former padawan, now a Knight. They grinned at each other. They were thinking the same exact thing, and they knew it. It was good to be home.

Padmé burst into a apartment, a level lower than hers. She looked around. Where was she? Blast. Padmé wondered anxiously. She just had to be here! Padmé rushed into the living room. Nope, she wasn't here. Padmé felt relief wash over her when she finally saw Ciana in the bedroom, fixing her hair.
"Ciana! Come on! They're home!" cried Padmé, while taking a hold of Ciana's arm and dragging her out of the apartment. Ciana looked at Padmé in shock and stuttered.
"Um..yeah..er, I was..yeah..I know they're home, Padmé! Just calm down!" Ciana said while untangling herself from Padmé. She put her hands on the older woman's shoulder and looked into her eyes. "Padmé, just calm down. I know you're excited to see Obi-Wan and I know you're really excited to tell him the good news, but first you must be thinking straight forward. You don't want to look all flustered when Obi-Wan sees you, right"
Padmé blushed, she shifted her weight from one leg to the other. She sighed. "You're right, but, just hurry! I know you must be excited to see Anakin." Padmé smiled when she saw a soft blush rise up to Ciana's cheeks. Ciana giggled nervously while Padmé laughed and linked their arms together. They walked down the hall.
Obi-Wan and Anakin grinned at each other as they saw the women walking down the hall. Obi-Wan mentally sighed in longing. Padmé looked absolutely beautiful. She was glowing. No. Not glowing. Radiating with happiness. He could just see it in her eyes. He frowned though, when he noticed what she was wearing. She wasn't wearing her normal tight clothes, instead she was volumous robes, that looked rather big for her. She also walked as if there was more weight on her...as if she had to carry a certain burden. Her hair wasn't up in any fancy hairdo either, it was down, and it looked lovely. He smiled at her when she beamed at him. He couldn't help himself, who couldn't smile when they saw her face? The men walked towards them as they neared. Anakin and Obi-Wan bowed. They took a hold of the women and drew them to a secluded place. When they were sure they were away from the sights of people (and creatures) Obi-Wan immediately kissed Padmé. He couldn't help himself.
Padmé laughed as they parted.
"Just couldn't wait, eh?" she asked, a sparkle in her eye. Obi-Wan snorted. "Heck no, I've been away from my beautiful wife for 5 months, I missed you so much"
Padmé put her arms around his neck. "I missed you too." she said softly. They kissed again.
Anakin hugged Ciana. He smiled at her as he noticed that she looked rather uncomfortable just standing there, looking at the ground. He nudged her arm, she looked up at him. He smiled and put his arm around his shoulder and held her tight against him. He bent down.
"Missed me?" he asked seductively, in her ear. Ciana blushed. "Anakin! I…well, as a matter a fact, I did." she said, smiling. Ciana raised an eyebrow and smirked. "Did YOU miss ME?" she asked.
Anakin sighed and rolled his eyes. "Well, duh! Why wouldn't I?" Ciana smiled and opened her mouth to say something. Anakin's eyes brows raised and he held up a hand for silence. "AH! NO! Don't answer that!" he said, hastily, laughing. Ciana chuckled and punched his arm softly. He held his arm, mocking hurt. "Owwww!" he whined, giving her the puppy eyed look. She just laughed some more and poked him in the stomach. He put a hand to his stomach. "OWW! MASTER! Come help me, I'm being harassed by a girl!" he whined, really loudly.
Obi-Wan and Padmé smirked.
"Awwwwww, poor Anakin! He can't even defend himself from a girl, boo hoo hoo." Obi-Wan said tauntingly. Obi-Wan moved away as Anakin moved to poke him. "Haha, missed me missed me now ya gotta kiss me!" Obi-Wan cried. The men froze, staring at each other. "Uh, yeah..um…don't do that." Obi-Wan said, putting his hands up and backing up as Anakin advanced on him, a smirk on his face. Obi-Wan gave Padmé a pleading look as Anakin advanced even more. But all she did was shrug helplessly, a silly smile on her face. "You're supposed to protect me, Padmé!" Obi-Wan said, a pleading note in his voice, a teasing glint in his eyes. Padmé raised her eyebrows and glanced at Ciana, who was trying not to laugh. "I? I! I am supposed to protect you? Well, last I heard, my Jedi husband, that YOU are supposed to protect ME." Padmé said, while coming towards Obi-Wan and moving him away from Anakin. She linked her arm with his and looked at Anakin. Anakin sighed in exasperation and rolled his eyes. He stopped walking. "Well, I guess I can't hurt Obi-Wan anymore, since his PROTECTOR, PADMÉ is here to save him. Plus, I better not hit her, she'll get all mad!" said Anakin, grinning like a little 9 yr old. His grin disappeared though as Padmé advanced on him, this time, a deadly glint in her eyes, a smirk on her face. "Uh oh…" he murmured, backing up and hiding behind Ciana. "HELP ME, CIANA!" he cried in a high pitched voice. Ciana moved away from Anakin. She grinned. "No, I don't believe I will." she said. Anakin's mouth dropped open in shock, he crossed his arms. "Well, of all the…" but he never got to finish his sentence as both Padmé and Ciana poked him. Anakin sniffled, he sat down on the floor and folded his legs, he put his head down on his knees and sniffled some more. Padmé, Ciana, and Obi-Wan all could hear Anakin murmur. "Meanies…" They all laughed. Anakin lifted his head and winked.

That evening the quartet sat at Padmé's dining table, waiting for the food. Anakin fidgeted in his chair. Gods, he was so hungry! He groaned in satisfaction as Padmé finally came out of the kitchen and set a bowl of delicious looking (and smelling) food right in front of him. Once all the food was out and she had sat down Anakin immediately filled his plate full of food. He immediately began shoveling food in his mouth. Padmé, Obi-Wan, and Ciana all rolled their eyes in unison. Anakin swallowed quickly and smiled, innocently. He looked at Padmé. "SO, anything happen that's exciting while we were gone"
Padmé smiled. "Yes, we found out that my sister, Sola, is pregnant. When I, er I should say WE, since Ciana came with me, but anyway, when we visited them you should have seen Ryoo and Pooja! They were so excited that they are going to be big sisters." Padmé laughed at the memory.
Ciana nodded."Yeah, they were. I was so happy to be introduced to Padmé's family. They were so nice and liked me instantly. Well, that's what Padmé tells me." she said, winking at Padmé.
Anakin nodded absently. "Soo, I'm happy for Sola, but, anything else happened? Anything?"
Padmé and Ciana shook their heads. "Nope, nothing. Sorry, Ani, I know you're disappointed." said Padmé. Anakin shrugged and began to eat again. During all this Obi-Wan had been sitting there as a perfect gentlemen. When he saw how Padmé had said that Sola was pregnant, he knew she was truly happy. He also knew that she was hiding something, but he figured that she would tell him later.
And true to his thought, she did. Later that night, Padmé and Obi-Wan were sitting in the living room, drinking tea and reminiscing about old times. Padmé snuggled against Obi-Wan and sighed in contempt. "Obi-Wan, there's something I must tell you." Obi-Wan nodded and waited."Obi-Wan well…," Padmé raised her head and looked into his eyes, "I'm um..well, I'm pregnant…" she said softly, smiling.
OOHH! CLIFFHANGER! HAH! Sorry, I feel evil today. And YAY! FIRST CHAP UP! It seems kinda slow to me though, I don't know, maybe that's just me. lol. Please R&R! I'LL LOVE YOU ALWAYS IF YOU DO :)

P.K. - 91 out. (Padmé)
