Anakin Skywalker's POV

8 months later...

Lux hasn't warned us about Savage Opress and Darth Maul yet, but I decided to move to Aldeeran to keep my family safe just in case.

I walked over to my drawer, my body and hair soaked by bath water. I tightened the towel around my waist and sighed.

Ahsoka was asleep, curled up into a ball. She breathed my name in her sleep and moaned quietly.

I smiled as I sat on the edge of the bed, eyeing her. I changed into my pants and laid next to my wife, shirtless. I wrapped my arms around her waist and rubbed her swelling torso.

She began to whimper quietly as she jerked a few times. I propped myself up with my elbows, staring at her in worry and fright. Ahsoka sobbed my name out a couple of times and tears trickled down her cheeks.

"Ani," She repeated, crying. "No, don't leave me! Please, no!"

I immediately shook her slightly, "Ahsoka!" I whispered, turning the lights on before sitting up, continuing to shake her. "Love, wake up."

She was sweating badly. Her tears mixing with her sweat as she dreamt.

I was really getting worried. "Ahsoka!" I shouted, weeping with fright.

Ahsoka gasped and sat up straight, gasping for breath. She coughed a couple of times before looking up to see me. I embraced her tightly as she shed tears. She trembled while I pulled away.

"Love," I breathed, wiping her tears away. "What happened?"

Ahsoka hesitated to speak; she couldn't hold back the tears. "I - I saw you, Ani. You were... Dying. I didn't know what to do but stay with you and hold you." her lips quivered. "Oh, Anakin!"

I held her closer to me as she wept against my chest. "Shh... Don't worry, My Love. I won't die then and now. If I die... We die together."

Ahsoka pulled back to smile at me. "Promise me?" she asked, eyeing my eyes.

I grinned. "I promise, Sweetheart... However, you have to promise me that you will die with me." I kissed her lips softly, tracing circles on her stomach.

Ahsoka laughed, "I promise, Ani."

I knew it wasn't the best idea but I don't want her to go through what I went through these past 6 years.

Ahsoka Skywalker's POV

I stretched my arms above my head, being careful of my baby. Anakin shifted to face away from me, the blanket covering his lower half.

I giggled as he made noises underneath his breath. I got up slowly before heading towards the bathroom. I washed my face and eyed myself before studying my swollen torso.

Suddenly, I gasped in pain. I clutched my stomach and screamed in pain.

"Ah!" I cried out, supporting myself to stand by holding onto the counter.

Anakin burst in and eyed me with wide eyes. "Sweetheart, what's wrong?" he questioned, supporting me.

"A - Ani..." I murmured, shaking. "My water just broke." I explained to him.

"Damn it!" He hissed. Anakin scooped me up into his arms as I began to breathe heavily. He raced out of our bedroom and into the hallway, looking for help.

Once we got to the hospital, he placed me down on the medical bed as the droids started barging in and out of the room.

The droids began to shove Anakin out of the room, reassuring him that he just needs to change into protective clothing. Ani looked quickly at me with sadden eyes until he was out the door.

My lips quivered as I held back the incoming tears. I couldn't hold them in any longer, I whimpered quietly as I rubbed my stomach, slowly.

"Ah..." I sobbed as I felt more pain.

The droids set me to a comfortable birth position before placing a shield-like dome around my lower half. Then, I was changed into a hospital gown.

I turned my head to glance at the door, waiting for Anakin. After a few minutes of waiting, I began to lose hope.

I closed my eyes and parted my lips, trying to at least relax.

A hand suddenly grasped mine. "What's wrong with her? What happened?" Anakin's voice sounded worried and desperate.

"She's just resting, Sir." One of the droids reassured him.

I reopened my eyes slowly, whispering his name. "Ani, you're back." I smiled weakly at him.

He chuckled, his eyes moist. "Of course, my love. Why wouldn't I come back?" he gave me a reassuring grin, running his hand between my montrals.

I giggled until I felt a harder kick. I caught my breath in pain, shutting my eyes.

Anakin held my hand tighter, kissing my forehead. "I'm here, my love."

Hours later...

I screamed in pain as it was time to push.

Anakin was still here, he held my hand tightly, whispering to me loving words.

My breathing stuttered as I frowned, trying to force my baby out. I let out whimpers and cries of pain as Anakin kept holding my hand.

After a few long minutes, Anakin's head jerked up to the side where a small baby's cry was heard.

The droid rolled away with the baby, possibly going to clean my child.

However, I wasn't finished. I didn't realize I had a second child until now.

Anakin's eyes widen once the droid announced that I had another baby inside me.

I had no time to be shocked; I pushed again along with screams of pain. Anakin resumed being with me until we heard another baby cry after another few minutes.

Anakin laughed in happiness and relief before looking at me with loving eyes. He stroked my sweaty cheek before kissing me.

I smiled weakly before laying my head back to the pillows. I chuckled in relief, too. I had twins.

My husband walked closer to the baby to cut the umbilical cord, his smile grew wider as he saw our second child.

The droid strolled away to go clean my second baby.

I eyed Anakin, pleading him to stay. He nodded and rested his head on the bed next to my hand.
He played with my wedding ring as I rested.

Minutes later, my babies came in, clean and wrapped in blankets.

Anakin took pictures of them, going overboard at one point. He lifted our baby boy and handed him to me.

I smiled slightly as my baby boy made baby noises, stretching his tiny arms out. His cute little mittens touched my cheek.

Anakin carried our baby girl. He, too, grinned as she snuggled closer to her father.

"What do you plan on naming them?" Obi-Wan questioned, walking in with Satine and Shmi.

I looked at the baby that I held before at Anakin. "I was thinking... Anakin... Anakin Zevark Skywalker." I smiled, seeing if Anakin agreed.

He smiled at me before kissing my cheek. "I think that's a wonderful name." he grinned.

"You get to name our baby girl." I noted, winking.

Anakin thought for a moment before saying, "Vesta Anika Skywalker."

Obi-Wan wrapped his arms around Anakin's shoulders. "They will become great heroes... And bring the Republic back from darkness."

Anakin and I glanced at our children.
