Sorry it took me so long, but the explanation is at the bottom. Enjoy!
As the lift ascended upwards, Obi-wan turned to Anakin.
"How are you feeling?" he asked him.
"I'm feeling fine master." Anakin replied. He turned back to the front of the room. His master would not understand. His master did not understand his feelings for Padme. To Anakin, Obi-wan did not even feel emotions. Obi-wan was his master, and secretly resented him for taking his place as Qui-gon's favourite. That's what chancellor Palpatine said. And Palpatine was always right.
Obi-wan sighed. He could practically hear Anakin's thoughts. He had already lived through Anakin hiding and not trusting him once, and would not again. "I do feel, ya know? Anakin, I am not only your master, I am your friend, and I am very proud of you." He told Anakin. Anakin nodded curtly. He didn't believe him, not yet. The door zoomed open.
"Master Obi! Master ani! Mesa so happy to see you! Mesa shows you to mistress Padme!" Jar jar greeted them happily, and beckoned them into the next room. Grinning, the pair followed.
"Padme, Padme! Masters Obi and Ani are here!" Padme walked into the room; Obi-wan grinned happily at seeing her happy and well, not heartbroken and sick, then dead. Anakin thought that he had never seen anyone so beautiful. Padme smiled at them. "Obi-wan! So good to see you, I don't need any more security, though." She informed him, her smile turning into a stubborn frown.
"Hello Padme, it's good to see you too! It's like seeing my sister, after several years." It was true, she had become like a sister during the war, especially since she married Anakin.
"And who's this with you? A padawan learner?" she leaned closer to Anakin, and gasped; "Ani? Oh my, you are so grown up! It's great to see you! I'm sorry I didn't recognise you, but the last time I saw you, you were nine." Anakin smiled bitterly.
"You remembered Obi-wan" he told her, giving her a teasing smile. She laughed, and nodded her head.
"Well, yes, considering obi-wan had already stopped changing, and the only difference now are the hair and beard, whereas you were nine, and now you're nineteen!" Anakin ducked his head, blushing. Obi-wan laughed.
"Have you found out who has done this?" Padme asked.
"No, but I promise we will." Anakin leaned forward slightly when he said this, and Obi-wan frowned slightly. 'Time for some change' he thought to himself.
"Anakin, our mandate is to protect, not to investigate." He said, the same roughly as last time. As Anakin opened his mouth, he continued, "However, if we get a lead, I promise we will follow it, even if it isn't in our mandate." Anakin looked at him, surprised. He hadn't suspected his master to agree, he would have thought that he would disagree, just to bring him down. 'Maybe the chancellor is wrong, at least partially. Maybe Obi-wan doesn't hate me, after all. And he did get the council to send Siri to my mum.'
"I think I will retire, goodnight master Jedi's." Padme told the two, before heading off in the direction of her bedroom. Sighing, Obi-wan got up and headed into the corner of the room, before activating his comlink.
"Siri, do you come in?" he whispered into the comlink.
"Siri here, Obi-wan? Why are you contacting me? How are you? How is the mission? I'm in hyperspace, halfway to Tatooine." Siri's voice reassured him, and he sighed.
"It's going well. I just wanted to hear your voice, I'm fine, and Anakin will be glad to hear that." He answered, ticking off each of her questions in his head as he answered them.
"You have to keep on reassuring him that you trust and support him in everything, and to not let anybody tell him otherwise. Tell him I said hi. I have to go, mace is contacting me. Goodbye, may the force be with you, and I love you."
"I love you too, and may the force be with you too." With that, Siri disconnected. Turning around, Obi-wan knew that Anakin was now suspicious.
"Siri says hello, and that she is half way to Tatooine." At Anakin's nod, he sat down next to him. "How are you feeling? Being around Padme again must be good." Anakin sighed and turned away.
"It's intoxicating, master. Being around her again… I can't think clearly, I can't stop thinking about her." Obi-wan sighed and clapped him on the back.
"I will support your decision. However, if you find that you cannot bury your feelings, I suggest that you wait. Wait for the time when everything calms down."
"Every calms down, master? Everything is calm now!" Anakin stated, confused.
"Ah, I sense that things will not remain like this for long." Obi-wan breathed a silent sigh of relief that Anakin believed his poor explanation of why he said that. He couldn't believe that he slipped such a big clue. Anakin nodded, even more confused.
"Master, don't worry, I will do what the force wishes, and if I can't stop my feelings, I promise I will wait, if she even feels this way about me." Obi-wan smiled and turned away. Anakin sighed. He didn't think that obi-wan understood love. But as he remembered his master's conversation with Siri on the comlink earlier, he forced himself to rethink that thought. His master had been positively glowing after it, and he had blushed. If obi-wan liked Siri, what did that mean to Anakin? It would mean that obi-wan was breaking the code. And that he didn't care what that would do to Anakin. Sighing, he released his worries into the force, which obi-wan had been encouraging him of late to do. He smiled in relief when everything became clearer. All of a sudden, he felt a disturbance in the force. He jumped up and sprinted to Padme's room, obi-wan behind him.
"I sense it too, Anakin, I have your back." Obi-wan raced into the room, before spotting the droid in the window, he rushed over and slashed the window, but the droid dogged the slash and zoomed away. Making a decision, Obi-wan sprinted into the next room, Anakin following him. "We have to follow it, we need a speeder though."
"On it master." Anakin replied, running ahead of him.
