I'll Be There For You [ Book 1 ]

Chapter 16

"You seem jumpy about this next mission." Cody commented, coming up to hug his boyfriend from behind.

"It's not the mission I'm worried about." Obi Wan said slowly, but Cody knew better.

"You can tell me, I do believe you promised to tell me things from now on."

"Hmm I know, it's just, I had a vision."

"What's that?"

"Well it's basically seeing the future of what could happen, it's a warning to the jedi so they can try and prevent what they see from happening."

"Oh, so what did you see then?" Cody asked as he lightly pressed kisses to the jedi's neck.

"You dying in my arms." Obi Wan whispered quietly making Cody freeze.

"What?" Obi Wan shook a bit in his arms, fighting to keep himself from crying once more.

"You died in the battle. I held you in my arms as you died." Cody turned Obi Wan around and placed his hands on either side of his face.

"Obi, my love, I promise you I will not die in this battle. You know as the Commander, as the Marshal Commander, I have to be there." Obi Wan nodded slightly as he placed his hands atop of Cody's.

"I know Cody, I know. I just worry, visions are not to be taken lightly."

"Then learn from it, I know you will not let me die on the battlefield."

"You put too much faith in me sometimes my love." Obi Wan stated with a small chuckle before kissing Cody gently on the lips.

This time on the surface below as the battle raged Obi Wan was ready and as the second wave of droids came in, so too came a new wave of reinforcements for the republic, Obi Wan having been able to call them in time to prepare for the needed aid. Obi Wan also made sure to stick close to Cody's side, never once letting his commander from his sight.

"You don't need to babysit me general." Cody quipped as the battle began to die down. He understood his boyfriends concern, but it was out of the ordinary for Obi to hover so close during a fight that he was worried his brothers would notice.

"I don't know what you're talking about Commander." Obi Wan quipped back with a small wink to the clone before walking off to talk to Plo Koon, the general who had come to their aid.

"What's with him?" Wolffe asked, walking over to Cody.

"He had a vision I died in this battle." Cody replied, glancing at his batchmate.

"Oh. Dad had a vision about one of our battles once but none of us died." Wolffe replied as the two clones nodded. Neither understood the force and neither wanted to, content just seeing it as some weird magic.

"So your dad huh?" Cody asked with a joking smirk.

"Shut up and go bang your boyfriend." Wolffe retorted.

"Oh I plan to."
