Chapter 13

Keep Quiet

Note: Told in Anakin's view.

She was about to scream when I grabbed her mouth and kicked the door closed. I scrambled to keep her from getting away. She was grabbing at my arms trying to pry them off her mouth so she could speak. I finally got a good grip on her and pinned her down on her bed. I leaned into her and said,

"Listen, I'm not going to hurt you," I let go of her mouth and continued to speak. "If you would just not say a word about this I will let you go about your party. Promise?"

She gave me no response. I closed my eyes and let out a sigh. From my stiff grip, she broke loose and wrapped her arms around my neck and started kissing me. I was in utter shock as she then twisted me to pin me down. She came up and hit my cheek. She got up and ran downstairs. I didn't even know if I would yell or just stand there. I called into the comlink,

"Abort the Crash!" Elzi ran into Padme's room and hugged me.

"What's wrong?" She asked me. I ran my hand through her brown hair and said,

"Padme found me."

I could hear Rex and Ahsoka's signals from them running to a hiding spot. Padme's black stilettos clomped down the steps as she ran to the back door. Elzi and I ran down there to see where Rex and Ahsoka were. We found them in the kitchen hiding. All of a sudden we heard something a loud crash to the floor and then shattering glass.

OMG! Cliffhanger again! Review Again and again if you'd like!
