Chapter 4: Skyguy?

POV: Ahsoka

I woke up with Jess leaning on me. I was leaning on Kelya, and she was lying on the floor. I smiled until I remembered how I got into this position, and what happened last night. Yet again, I had trusted someone and they had betrayed me. It was only a small thing that he did, but that fact that he was one more person to add to my list of people I couldn't trust was what made it so upsetting. I slowly pushed Jess of me long enough for me to get up. I found a notepad and pen and wrote them a letter just letting them know that I had left. I also thanked them for their support yesterday. I folded the note in two and left it on Keyla's bed. They would find it when they woke up. I closed the door quietly on my way out and began my walk back to my dorm. It was going to be awkward going back there after what happened last night. Before I got there I saw my Master looking for me. I turned my face away from him but he saw me. He pushed through all the people and came towards me.

"Ahsoka!" he called. I couldn't turn away now, everyone had heard him. If I pretended I hadn't heard him that would be a bit pathetic. I turned to him and he ran over to me.

"Where were you last night?!" He said worried. He pulled us into our dorm and I sat on my bed.

"I spent the night with Keyla and Jess." I said coldly. He sighed. Last night our newly formed bond had been broken. As soon I became his Padawan, I trusted him, even though I didn't know if I could. I just assumed he wouldn't do anything to hurt me. But after the stunt he pulled yesterday, I don't trust him anymore. I broke the bond. At least he can't go picking through my head anymore. I thought.

"Ahsoka, I want to apologise for my actions yesterday. You had already opened up to me more than you wanted to and I was greedy. I wanted to know more. I'm really sorry that I invaded your personal boundaries and I hope that you will be able to trust me again one day." He said truthfully. I was surprised, most people didn't apologise, but he did. I was thankful and couldn't be happier with the apology.

"I appreciate that you apologised Master. I can't say that I still trust you, but I'm glad you owned up and said you were sorry." I said, smiling.

"Ok, I'm glad we cleared that up. So, what do you want to do today? I thought we should start some sparring; see how good your skills are. But if you have another idea I'm happy to listen." He said.

"No, sparring sounds good." I said. I was actually excited, I was looking forward to sparring, and I had never done it before. As a youngling we always practiced the techniques, but never put them into combat. So this was all new. It was nerve-racking, but exciting.

"Alright. Have a shower and meet me in the training halls when you ready. I just need to meditate on something for a while…"he said. He walked out of the door only to return a few seconds later. I was in the refresher.

"Oh and Snips?" He said loudly from the door.

"Yeah Master?" I called out.

"Don't forget your lightsaber" He shouted into the refresher.

"I won't", I shouted back. I heard him close the door as I undressed. I turned on the shower, making it nice and hot. I liked a good hot shower; it relaxed and soothed my muscles and joints. I let the hot water rush down my body, steam evaporating as it did. I stayed in for another few minutes before turning off the water and stepping out. I dried myself and changed into my Padawan combat outfit. I grabbed my lightsaber and looked into the mirror, nodding at myself in approval. I remembered back to that night at the pub. The next few days my body had looked terrible. Purple and blue bruises everywhere, my eyes were all puffy and stained from tears. I hadn't stopped crying for days after that night…A tear trickled down my left cheek as I snapped back into reality. I wiped it away and sniffled. I had to be strong. It was my dream to become a Jedi Knight one day. I had to prove to myself that I could do it despite my terrible past. I took a deep breath and started towards the training halls. I arrived and my Master wasn't there yet. He must still be meditating…I thought. I sat down on a nearby bench and waited patiently for him to arrive. Doing a bit of meditation on my own.

Meanwhile…

POV: Anakin

I sat in the chamber that I always meditated in. I used this particular one every time there was something on my mind that I needed to really think about. I don't know what it was. I think it was just the mood of the room. It was very relaxing and soothing. I was thinking about Ahsoka. I know I'm not supposed form attachments, and I haven't until now, she's just so, amazing. But I know that she would never go against the code. I have no choice but to let her go. We would never be together and even if we could, I don't think she would be comfortable. She was only sixteen and I'm twenty-one…By the end of my session I had come to a conclusion. If she wanted to be with me, I wouldn't hesitate to be with her either, but I wouldn't try to win her affections. It wasn't exactly a very good plan, but it was what I had come up with at the time. I stood up and left the room. Mind relaxed. I entered the training halls to see Ahsoka sitting-well lying down on a bench in the corner. I walked over to her.

"Did I take that long Snips?" I asked, chuckling a little.

"You took your time that's for sure," she said rolling her eyes.

"Come on. Let's get started," I said, nudging her arm. She stood up excitedly and happily started a warm up. We spent about 10 minutes warming up and stretching then I decided to teach her how to hold her lightsaber properly.

"Ok Snips, show me how you hold your lightsaber." She ignited her emerald lightsaber and her twin yellow shoto. She decided she wanted to use two when fighting so she constructed a twin shoto. She stood holing her lightsabers in a backwards V position. It was an ancient style of fighting I hadn't seen in a long time. She looked at me expectantly and I raised an eyebrow.

"Snips why do you use that position?" I asked.

"I've always used this style. The other styles just didn't work for me and I can move faster using this position." She answered.

"Ok, as long as it keeps you alive I'm happy for you to use it. Ok let's see how you go in combat."

I felt through the force she was a little bit nervous, but excited. I smirked and ignited my own lightsaber. We began our duel. I pushed forward, and then she pushed forward. She retreated back, and I retreated back. We continued for about 5 minutes and I was so far very impressed with her skills. She was very focused and was always paying attention to what was going on. I decided to take it up a notch. I pushed down on her harder and used more advanced techniques. I could see she was struggling but I wanted to see how much she could manage. I slowly continued to increase but difficulty on her. She was panting and retreating more often now. Exactly as I expected her to. Eventually she reached a point when she just couldn't go any longer. She let her guard down only for a second and I knocked her to the ground. She landed with an "oomph". We were both panting as I helped her up.

"Wow Snips. Your very advanced for your age and experience. I wasn't anywhere near as good as that when I became a Padawan," I said, still panting. She laughed. I loved her laugh….No. You need to let her go Anakin. Let her go…

"I highly doubt that….Master. You were, probably, way better than me. I'm just, and ordinary…Padawan." she said, panting as well. I laughed at her modesty.

"Ok we're even. Is that better?"

"Yeah alright Skyguy." She said, smiling.

"Skyguy?"

"Yeah. I'm your Snips and you're my Skyguy." I laughed again.

"Sounds good to me Snips. Come on. I bet your hungry. Let's head to the mess and grab something to eat."

"Finally! I'm starving!" I laughed at her eagerness. She grabbed my hand and tugged me out of the room, "Race you to the mess Skyguy?"

"You're on Snips!" I ran down the hall before she was ready, laughing as I went. I could sense her frustration as she dashed after me. I reached the mess and stood against the wall with my arms folded, waiting for her. About five seconds later Ahsoka emerged from the door, panting.

"What took you so long Snips?" I asked sarcastically smirking.

"You cheated!" She shouted at me. But she was smiling; I could see she was having fun. That made me happy, knowing she was enjoying herself. We laughed it off and went to grab some food.

We loaded up our plates and sat at a table at the back corner of the cafeteria. This was the table I sat with when I was Obi-Wans Padawan, and now it would be mine and Ahsoka's to cherish. Then Ahsoka would share it with her Padawan, but I wished it could be ours forever…We took our time eating in a peaceful silence. I enjoyed my meal, and I think Ahsoka did too. After we ate it had gotten pretty late, so we decided to get changed and get ready for bed. Again, she wore comfortable pants and a lose crop top – which made her look cute. Oh man…She's so cute...Ugh stop it! Breaking this forming attachment may be harder than I expected it…

"Snips I'm going for a shower you can stay up for a while or go to sleep it's up to you," I said calmly.

"Ok Master, thanks," She said. I raised my eyebrow.

"What happened to Skyguy?"I made a sarcastic sad face and she laughed. I loved to see her laugh…

"Ok Skyguy," She said, smiling. I smiled proudly and walked into the refresher, closing the door. I turned on the hot water and stepped in. I closed my eyes and enjoyed the warm water running over my body.

POV: Ahsoka

As soon as I heard the water turn on, I dropped to the floor and reached under my bed and grabbed my sketchbook and pencils. I smiled as I found them and lay on my back on my bed. I looked through all of my drawings – happy ones, sad ones, scared ones, all finished and perfected – then I reached my portrait of Anakin. That adorable pose of him where he smirks and scratches the back of his head nervously. I had a love heart around him at first, but I rubbed it out in case he saw it. I smiled as I thought about him…I'm forming an attachment, but I have only just become a Padawan, and I didn't plan on breaking an rules any time soon. I began to work on my work. I began with the eyes, making them look caring, and gentle, as they were in reality. Then I moved to his nose and lips. I made the lips look soft, and slightly pouted. After a few minutes of working on the facial features, I held it in front of me and smiled in approval. I heard the door slide open and I looked towards him, he smiled at me. He had pants and again, no shirt. Cute! I thought. I looked away and continued on my work. He sat next to me on my bed and I quickly pulled my drawing into my chest, hiding it.

"Come on, you've showed me everything except that one. And it's the one I want to see the most! Whatever it looks like, I won't laugh, or criticize. I won't even say anything if you don't want me to. Just trust me," he said, his eyes mesmerizing me.

But that's the thing, I don't trust you. I can't trust you…I thought. I decided that there wasn't anything that would cause suspicion about my feelings for him in the drawing, so after looking at him for some time, I slowly pulled it away from my chest and revealed it. His eyes widened as he took it from my hands and inspected it closer.

"It's…it's amazing. Ahsoka this is unbelievable. You don't even realize how talented you are," He said, his jaw wide open. I pulled it back and continued working on it.

"It's not finished…" I mumbled under my breath.

"Well then I can't wait to see it when it is finished." He smiled at me. I smiled back. He watched me work on it for another ten minutes. I started to feel a little annoyed and he must have sensed it.

"What?" He asked.

"Why are you watching me? You're probably bored. Save yourself the time and go do something you enjoy, instead of pretending to be interested in my drawings." I said. I didn't want to sound harsh, but he didn't seem all that interested.

He seemed very taken aback. "But…I am interest in your drawings. I'm mesmerized. They're amazing. I want to watch you…" He said, a little embarrassed.

"Really?" I asked.

"Yeah."

I looked down. "I'm sorry I accused you then." I said sadly.

"Don't worry. No big deal. Keep drawing." He said warmly. He was so caring. I internally sighed. I wish I could have him…but I can't. I felt like he had re-earned his trust. I couldn't say I trusted him with my life, but he had earned some back. I re-connected our minds in a bond. Once he realized this, his eyes widened as he looked me.

"You…we have a bond again," He said, smiling widely. "Thank you for trusting me."

"You're welcome Master." I smiled.

He watched me draw for another few minutes, and then we got into our separate beds.

Goodnight Skyguy I said through our bond.

Night Snips. He replied. I smiled to myself and fell asleep.

I'm sorry if it doesn't make much sense guys, its late and I haven't proof read it. I hope its ok! Please review if you're liking it so far!
