79-You're Not Real

One month later: 7 months into pregnancy

TW:Blood, Anxiety, Panic Attack

(y/n)'s POV
"No, absolutely not." Anakin shook his head at Obi-Wan who has just asked him to attend a mission with him to Alderaan.

Our old Master sighed, "Please Anakin I need you, just this one time. It'll only be twelve hours tops." He tried convincing him to go but Anakin was not budging.

He reached over and held my hand, "You know I can't leave her, not with Shaak Ti out there." He squeezed my hand gently.

"Anakin it's been a whole month since we encountered her and even longer since any threat has been made on (y/n), she will be fine." He assured him and even though I didn't want Anakin to go, I felt like he should. He's been putting everything on hold just for me. I feel like he's going to start getting sick of hanging around me all the time.

Also, the only threats we've had this month are our nightmares. Anakin and I have hardly talked about them lately. Especially about his, it's preposterous, I would never kill him. Never.

I placed my other hand over his, "Go with him." I encouraged and his head snapped to me with a confused look on his face, "I'll be fine, Rex is here and we have the security detail that you placed in the hallway." I smiled to comfort him and I could see it slightly worked.

"I don't know." He sighed in frustration as he ran his hand through his hair.

Rex stepped forward to gain his attention, "She will be safe with me General, I promise you."

Anakin now gave out a defeated sigh, "Fine, but call me with anything Rex. I don't care if she did something as simple as stub her toe, you call me." He pointed a finger at him and Rex nodded with a reassuring smile.

"And if it makes you feel better," I squeezed his hand to get his attention, "I'll call you right before I go to bed."

He smiled at me, "It does." He leaned forward and pressed his lips to mine.

"Gross." Obi-Wan commented causing both Anakin and I to give him the middle finger without breaking our kiss.

~*~•~*~

"Promise me you'll be okay?" Anakin asked nervously as he stood at the door and Obi-Wan was impatiently waiting for him.

I stood on my tippy toes and kissed him one last time, "Yes, now go before Obi-Wan has a stroke." I chuckled and he gave me one last concerned look before sighing and leaving. I could tell he was extremely reluctant and I know he's going to be filled with worry the whole time. But I feel like this is good, we haven't been separated in almost five months.

I'm not saying I won't miss him. I miss him already if I'm being honest, but a small break would be good for us.

I turned around and Rex was standing not too far behind me in a soldier like position, "At ease Rex," I chuckled at him, "Go be with Padme I know you're dying to. I promise I'll be okay."I assured him and he finally relaxed his position.

Padme was in bed already with a stomach bug and I know Rex is going crazy not being there with her to comfort her.

He sighed, "Call me if you need anything."

I nodded, "You know I will." He turned away and went down the hallway towards Padmé's room and I sighed with relaxation.

I had the living room to myself tonight. Satine is off visiting family friends on Naboo so it's just me, Rex, and Padme here tonight. Plus the troopers that are standing guard at the hallway.
