The Dark Side of Things Chapter 8
Holy fudge, I'm already on chapter 8. I want to say a very, very, very big thank you to Richardblue1987 for reviewing! Thank you so much bro, you legitimately made my night when I saw that you reviewed. Anyway, on with the story.
TWO WEEKS AFTER LAST CHAPTER
;-
Anakin got out of bed that morning and walked out into the common area of his and Ahsoka's quarters. Ahsoka wasn't out there before him as she usually was.
"I guess I have to wake her up this morning" Anakin thought.
He walked up to her door and slightly pushed it open. He saw Ahsoka peacefully asleep on her bed. He and Ahsoka had gotten very close over the past two weeks and Anakin was loving every second of it. He walked over to her bed and gently shook her shoulder trying to wake her up.
Ahsoka began to stir, when she finally woke she looked up and saw a smiling Anakin standing above her.
"Goodmorning Skyguy" She said as she yawned and stretched.
"Goodmorning Snips" Anakin replied as he sat down on her bed.
Ahsoka got up from under her covers and she kissed Anakin on the lips. He eagerly returned the kiss, as they came apart Anakin said it first.
"I love you Snips' Anakin said passionately
"I love you too Skyguy" Ahsoka said with an equal tone.
They had been on a mission for the past several days. The Separatists had tried to attack one of the Core worlds and had put up quite a fight, but in the end the Republic won the battle and drove the enemy back. 4000 Clones had been killed in that battle. Captain Rex had been quite upset after seeing the amount of brothers he had lost.
Anakin's comlink went off and an irritated noise.
"Skywalker here" He said as Ahsoka got up out of bed.
"The Council would like to see you Anakin" Obi-Wan's voice came though.
"Yes master" Anakin replied and the signal cut off.
"I wonder what they want this time" Ahsoka said.
"Better not be another mission" Anakin muttered as they both walked out of the door.
;-
When they got to the Council chambers they both bowed as a sign of respect.
"Greetings Masters" Anakin said in a humbled tone.
"Worked hard you have Young Skywalker?" Yoda said
Anakin didn't see the point
"Master?" He replied confused.
"We want to give you and Ahsoka some time off Anakin" Obi-Wan replied with a smile. H could sense Anakin and Ahsoka's shock.
Anakin coughed "Time off Masters?
"Yes Anakin, you just went through a difficult mission." Shaak Ti said.
'Two weeks you have, enjoy yourselves you should" Yoda said with a smile.
"Can we go offworld?' Anakin asked.
"You may" Obi-Wan said.
Anakin bowed. "Thank you Masters." He said.
"Dismissed you are" Yoda said.
Anakin and Ahsoka bowed and went out of the doors that led into the chambers.
When they were finally out of the doors Anakin spoke. "Where do you want to go Ahsoka"
"I think I want to go to Naboo Master" Ahsoka said enthusiastically
Anakin would have to keep that a secret from Padme, he hadn't spoke to her in a while, he also knew he would have to divorce her eventually, and tell Ahsoka he was married..
He wouldn't let those thoughts dominate his mind right now.
"Naboo it is Ahsoka"
Ahsoka thought of something. She thought she would try to do something nice for Rex. That way they could tell him about her and Anakin, which they had been meaning to for a while now.
"Hey Anakin?"
"Yes Ahsoka" He replied
"Can we take Rex with us, he never gets to do anything but fight" Ahsoka said sad that Rex never got to do anything.
Anakin pondered her question. She was right, Rex never got to do anything.
"Let's go ask him shall we" Anakin said with a smile on his face.
Ahsoka got a huge smile on her face as he said that. It would be a good time to get closer to one another.
;-
Anakin and Ahsoka had left the temple and went to the barracks on Coruscant where his legion was. He requested to the officer at the post that Rex be sent out.
When Rex finally got to where Anakin and Ahsoka were standing he could see that they were both smiling.
"I wonder what this is about..?" Rex thought.
"Pack your bags Rex." Anakin said.
That worried Rex, no Clone ever wanted to hear those words. Its usually meant you were being transferred.
"S-Sir?" He asked
"Me and Ahsoka are taking you with us on a vacation." Anakin said with a smile.
Rex was relieved, but wait. Did he hear the word vacation?
"Vacation, what?" Rex thought.
"Vacation sir?"
"Yes Rex you are coming with us, pack some swim wear too" Anakin added.
"Yes Sir!" Rex said with a smile on his face as ran for the Captain's quarters on the base.
"Meet us in the Temple hanger at 0600 tomorrow!" Anakin Yelled.
Rex shoved a thumb up into the air as his disappeared back in the door of the base.
"I think you made him happy" Ahsoka said.
"Ya think? Let's go shopping for some things while we are out." Anakin said as he laughed
;-
Ahsoka's pov
We finally got to the shopping center when Anakin handed me some credits.
"What are these for Master" I asked.
"Go buy some swimwear. I'll wait here" He told me
"Alright Master" I told him
I walked into the shopping center and I saw a sign that said swim wear (Women only) Which relieved me. I didn't need some guy to bother me.
I walked into the store and a woman approached me.
"Can I help you dear?" the lady asked
"No, Thank you though" I replied with a smile.
I watched as she walked away and I started looking around until I saw a black bikini, I walked up to it and took it off its hook.
"This looks just my size" I thought.
I walked into one of the dressing rooms and I tried it on. I had to admit it didn't look bad on me.
"It even looks kind of sexy, Anakin will probably like this, I just hope He doesn't get jealous if Rex started staring at me" She thought and smiled.
I took off the swimwear and put my regular outfit on. I Walked up to the counter to pay for the bikini and handed over the correct amount of credits.
"Thank you" The cashier said.
"You're welcome" I replied with a smile.
I walked out of the store and I tossed Anakin the remaining amount of credits he gave me.
"What did you get?" he asked.
"You will see when we get there" I replied.

General POV
Anakin and Ahsoka left the shopping center and returned to their quarters in the Jedi Temple.
They started to pack for the trip that would last for two weeks. They each packed a few sets of clothes and the required things for hygiene. The cabin Anakin had rented only had two beds so they would have to explain to Rex about them when they got there.
"Are you ready for this Snips?"
"More than ready Anakin, What are we going to do while we are there?" She replied
"I have some things planned." Anakin said with a smirk.
"Like what?" Ahsoka replied.
"You will see when we get there" Anakin replied to her
"Fine, be that way" Ahsoka said with a pout.
"Oh you'll be fine" Anakin said smiling
"Whatever" Ahsoka responded.
It was getting quite late so Anakin decided to go to bed. Ahsoka asked him a question.
"Can I sleep with you tonight..?" Ahsoka asked.
They had never slept in the same bed at the temple.
"Are you sure Snips?
She nodded.
"Come on" Anakin gestured with his hand into his room. They both got undressed and got into the bed. Anakin was in his boxers and Ahsoka was in her bra and underwear. This was the first time they had been this exposed around eachother. They both pressed up against eachother. Savoring the warmth. The last things that was said was.
"I love you Anakin"
"I love you too Snips"
