Hello! I'm back with chapter 3! These chapters are short I know, but I just can't seem to get into writing this story :/ I am going to finish it, no doubt, but I don't know how long it will be. Anyhow! I hope you enjoy!
After Ahsoka and Lux's conversation ended, the two slowly made their way to the control room. Ahsoka was worried that Padme' would reveal her lie to Lux. Maybe she should have been honest, but if Padme' went along with her lie, then it would be well worth it!
Lux found it quite awkward that he would be attending a slumber party, but then again, he liked the idea. He hoped he and Ahsoka could talk more.
The door slid open bringing into view the sight of Anakin pushing buttons and flipping switches.
Anakin heard the door and turned to face them," We'll be arriving at Couriscant momentarily so collect your things."
"Yes sir." Lux said and walked back out the door to the other room.
Ahsoka knew what she had to do, but she was embarrassed to.
Come on Ahsoka! Don't be a wuss! She thought to herself as she finally got the courage to admit her lie to Padme'.
She walked up behind Padme' and taped her shoulder lightly.
Padme' turned to face her,"What is it Ahsoka?"
"Do you think we could talk….alone…" She asked in a whisper.
Padme' reverted her eyes back over to Anakin and realized he had everything under control,"Sure."
So the two walked to the storage room in hope that they would have all the privacy they needed there.
"What's wrong, Ahsoka?" Padme' asked curiously.
"Well…" She began as she leaned against a crate," I kind of told Lux that we were having a sleep over when we got back to Couriscant…"
Padme' was confused,"We aren't having a sleep over, Lux is staying with me until he gets back on his feet."
"Well you see, he said he would stay some where else and I told him not to worry about it that he wouldn't be a problem…" Ahsoka's headtails darkened.
Padme' thought for a moment, then it hit her," Ahsoka!"
"I'm sorry, Padme'…" She said lowering her head.
"Ahsoka, you can tell me anything, you know that right?" Padme' asked as she moved to sit beside her.
"Yes, it's just hard to talk about things like this when I've been taught to hide it all my life…" She admitted.
"Ahsoka, you can tell me…" Padme' said starting to rub her back now.
Ahsoka thought it over, and made her decision,"It's just…every time I'm around him, I get this warm fuzzy feeling deep inside my stomach….what is it?"
Padme's eyes widened," Ahsoka, you like him!"
Now Ahsoka's eyes widened," No I don't!"
"Come on, Ahsoka! You just admitted to it; Don't hide it!"
"Fine! I do find him…attractive…" She said as her headtails grew dark.
"Why are you so embarrassed to admit your feelings?" Padme' asked placing a hand on Ahsoka's shoulder.
"I don't know…I just don't like talking about love when…"
She was cut off.
"Love! Ahsoka, I wasn't asking if you loved him!" She said excitedly.
"You weren't?" Ahsoka asked with a confused expression.
"No! I just asked if you liked him as more than a friend! But you must feel more strongly for him then I thought!" Padme' said growing even more excited.
"Padme', please don't tell Anakin! I know he doesn't like Lux, I can sense it…." She said lowering her head. Why didn't her master like him?
Padme' nodded in agreement when suddenly the door slid open.
"We're here!" Anakin said.
"Very well!" Padme' said as she stood and walked out the door.
Anakin looked over to his padawan; her head hung loosely and she seemed pale. He walked over to her and sat next to her.
"How you doing, Snips!" Anakin asked merrily.
Ahsoka only shrugged, she had just remembered the vow they had made to tell each other everything.
"Ahsoka, I don't know how close you feel to me, but I feel as if I am your brother! I can sense something is bothering you, and I want to help!" He said placing a hand on her shoulder.
"I'm afraid…" She spoke quietly.
"Of?" He asked attempting to catch a glimpse of her face.
"The code…I like Lux, but I'm afraid to disobey the code…" She finally admitted.
Anakin had know idea what to say about that.
"Well…I can't make decisions for you, you are your own being….connect with the force and meditate for an answer." He said taking his hand off her shoulder.
She turned to him and smiled," I will! Thank you!"
He returned the smile," No problem! If you are ever in need of advice, please come to me!"
"I will!" She said as the both stood up.
"Good, lets go." He said as he led the way out the door.
Well? Please rate and review! Hearing from your guys really motivates me to keep writing!
