A/N: I wrote this chapter at about 1 AM last night. Don't ask why. I just couldn't sleep. Anyway, I was listening to Blink 182's song "Feeling This" and started thinking, "I'll bet if Anakin and Padme had a song, it would be this one." And that inspired this chapter. So, if you want to add a sound track to this chapter, I suggest listening to "Feeling This".
Disclaimer: I don't own Star Wars. Or Blink 182. I'm just borrowing their lyrics for you're entertainment and mine. But I'm not making any money off this, so what do they care?
3. Ask him what his and Padme's song was, and sing it constantly.
Ariadne suited up in her uniform (a black jumpsuit, black boots, and a black cap with the Imperial logo on it) with a wide grin on her face. She was pleased that yesterday's task had gotten such a reaction for something so minor, and was eager to do more. She thought that today's task sounded pretty fun, but hoped that their song wasn't anything R&B because she couldn't sing R&B well if she wanted to. She straightened her cap, flipped her short crimson red hair behind her ears, and walked out onto the Avenger's main deck, softly humming "Defying Gravity" from Wicked.
ooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo
Wes looked up from his scanner when he heard Ariadne come in. He smiled at her, then went back to work. Ariadne smiled and went out in search of Vader.
She found him talking to Admiral Piett. When he left, Ariadne walked up to Vader and tapped him on the shoulder. "Morning Vader!" she smiled.
"Darth Vader," he corrected her.
"Whatever. I was just wondering. Did you and Padme have a song?"
Vader blinked in shock. "How- how did you know about Padme?" he asked/stammered.
Ariadne smiled wickedly. "Do not underestimate my powers!" she warned.
This girl really needs help! Vader thought, shrugging it off. "To answer your question, yes, we did. It was 'Feeling This' by Blink 182."
Vader remembered it well. It had been playing on the radio while he and Padme were driving back to the Lake House after their private wedding. He had deleted it from his iPod shortly after Padme's death. He stopped reminiscing when he realized that Commander Ayortha was singing while she worked on her TIE fighter, which still REALLY needed fixing.
Fate fell short this time
Your smile fades in the summer
Place your hand in mine
I'll leave when I wanna
Vader sighed, thinking of Padme. To be truthful, he hadn't thought about her much since about a year after her death. Now, it seemed like this annoying little redhead was trying to get her stick in his head, right where it hurt the most.
This place was never the same again
After you came and went
How can you say you made anything different
To anyone standing alone
On the street with a cigarette
On the first night we met
Look to the past
And remember a smile
And maybe tonight
I can breath for a while
I've gone in too deep
I think I'm falling asleep
But then all that means
Is I'll always be dreaming of you
That last part was the straw that broke the camel's back. Vader lost it. Using the Force, he picked up a wrench from her toolbox and hit her square in the eye with it.
Vader smiled at her yelp of pain. But that satisfaction was short lived. Ariadne whirled around, a hand pressed to her hurt eye, a smirk playing on her lips. "Now, now," she said, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Do you really think Padme would have approved of that?" Vader growled in frustration.
A/N 2: I'll try to update ASAP, but it's the end of the year and that means finals, finals, and still more finals. Plus, my swim team coach thinks I need therapy because I'm reading Carrie by Stephen King. It's a good book! But whatever. Read & Review!
