Padme lethargically plopped on the couch and started eating a snack. it had been a week or so since her husband had rescued her from Jabba the Hutt. Despite the fact that Padme felt she should have been thrilled to have been rescued, she still couldn't help but think about what the vile hutt had said about the green fluid

"Let's just say it will make the transition a bit easier"

What was that stuff? Was it designed to be some sort of pseudo love potion that would cause her to fall in love with him? Not that it really mattered at this point as her husband had made short work of him, but just the idea of becoming infatuated with that hutt made her want to puke. Either that or it was pregnancy that mad her want to vomit. She didn't know which.

That was also something that frightened her a bit. Ever since that night, Padme had notice that her mannerisms started to change a bit she noticed that she belched a lot more than usual, she felt extremely sluggish some mornings and at times she had real strong cravings for hutt food. The thing that frightened her the most however was the fact that she had gained over 20 lbs since they had returned home.

Yes women gained weight during their pregnancy she knew that. But something about this seemed strange. It seemed different though she could not put her Finger on as to why it seemed different. It also didn't help the fact that she was afraid to go outside do to it being more than noticeable.

Very rarely did she go outside, and the few times she did, she wore baggy clothing in an attempt to hide her expanding figure. But the person she was most worried about reacting was her husband. Anakin had to go help Obi-Wan deal with a separatist crises on Taris leaving her by herself most of the time the only company being her holovision and Rotta the hutt.

"What will Anakin think if he sees me like this? I don't want him to think he's married a hutt for a wife."

All of the sudden Padme could hear the slide doors open.

"Padme!" Anakin could be heard calling form the other room.

"oh no!" Padme whispered panicked. Right now she wasn't wearing the baggy clothing that she normally war. She had no doubt that Anakin would notice her what she considered unappealing changes. As she got up to try to hide, Anakin came into the room. Padme froze in a state of shock.

"Oh. Hi Anakin. I didn't expect you to be home early."

"You should have seen it! There we were. Droid forces to the left, droid forces to the right, Obi-Wan and I were trapped in the middle. All of the sudden here comes master WIndu he grabs the rubble of a building and just throws it and it crushes all of the droids. You should have seen it, it was aw…"

Anakin stopped midsentence once he saw a good look at his wife.

"Uh…wow Padme. You look different. Are you feeling okay?"

Padme just gave a disgusted look and crossed her arms. "Just say it. I've gained weight I look fat. Go on say it!"

"Well I was going to try to put it a little bit more delicately."

Padme started to tear up a bit. Anakin seeing the look of dismay quickly sat on the couch and snuggled her close to his chest.

"Padme it's okay. Do you really think you gaining a bit of weight is going to bother me?

"It's not just that. Ever since that night at Jabba's palace. I haven't felt like myself."

"It's called being pregnant." Anakin remarked "your bodies going to go through changes in preparation to deliver birth."

"Anakin you don't understand. While I was down there Jabba injected something into me. It was some sort of green substance. Ever since then I felt strange. I think something's wrong. I've gained over 20 lbs in a single week. Even for a pregnancy that is not normal"

Anakin couldn't help but chuckle a bit. "Well I'll tell you what. Since you are my wife and I am to please. If you are that worried about it, we can go to the doctor's office tomorrow.

He wrapped his arms around his pudgier wife. Padme couldn't help but giggle.

"Anakin stop it that tickles."

"Oh…really." Anakin had a mischievous grin on his face and all the sudden he made a playful growling noise and started poking her.

"Wait…Annie…stop…Hehehehahahah"

Padme started laughing trying to bat her husband away. Anakin had to admit, it was kind of cute watching padme's belly jiggle while she laughed. Course a lot of that might have been just thinking she was cute in generally.

After Padme's laughing fit ceased, Anakin hugged her again. "Feel better?"

"Yeah." Padme said with a blush.

"Anyway We'll go to the doctor and I am sure they will say like I am saying that this is perfectly normal."

Padme giggled and playful stuck her tongue at him, what Anakin saw however was something that horrified him.

"But that's not normal." Anakin slowly gasped.

"What?" Padme asked

"Padme…Your tongue."

"What about it?"

Anakin pulled out a mirror and told padme to stick out her tongue.

Padme did so and just about shrieked at the sight. Her small red tongue had been replaced with a thick, long purple one.
