Hair Cutting

okay the headcanon about ahsoka cutting ani's hair got the most votes, so here's the fic abt  it!

Ahsoka ruffled her fingers through the dark blond locks, using her nails to comb it out.

"Brush," she called, pulling one of her hands out of the curls. Anakin passed the item to her. "Thanks."

"Mhmm," he hummed in reply.

She carefully began to brush it out, starting out gently to detangle the knots without hurting him too much. She worked her way through the top of his thick hair before pushing a bit harder, Anakin wincing as she pulled out the thicker knots.

"Sorry," she said quickly, trying not to pull too hard as she pulled apart a particularly large tangled mess.

"No, you're not," he scoffed. Ahsoka rolled her eyes, waving the brush in front of his face until he took it, placing it on the table in front of him.

She pushed her fingers through the now-smooth-tresses, proud of her work so far. She dropped a hand over Anakin's shoulder.

"Comb and water?"

He leaned forward, handing the tiny white bowl to Ahsoka, a black comb floating in the water it was filled with.

"Thanks."

"Yup."

She tapped the comb against the side of the bowl before lowering it onto the side of her master's head. Water dripped down onto his ears as she pulled the comb through his hair.

"Agh, you're getting water all over my neck!" Anakin exclaimed as she dipped the comb back into the water.

"Well, maybe that's why I'm cutting your hair," she hissed. "It's too long."

"Yeah, yeah. Whatever."

She pulled the teeth through the rest of the right side, then the middle, and then the left until Anakin's hair was damp.

What had been dark blond now resembled the color brown as Ahsoka handed the bowl forward, making sure to slosh some of the water into Anakin's lap.

"Snips!" he squawked, jumping as water ran down his front.

"Oops," she said innocently. "Scissors, please?"

"Here. And don't you dare cut off my ear again."

"What are you talking about?!" she exclaimed. "I brushed the scissors against the tip of your ear, and you screamed like a baby! I didn't even draw blood!"

"Oh, yes you did!"

"No, I didn't!"

"Yes, you did!"

"I'm going to if you don't shut up!"

Anakin muttered something under his breath before, indeed, shutting up. 

He handed the comb back to her before she asked for it, and she began snipping away at each section she brushed through.

Hair fell onto his shoulders, and some of it 'accidentally' into his face.

"Really?" he muttered, spitting the ends of his hair out of his mouth. Ahsoka shrugged.

"I don't know what you're talking about."

He sighed, rolling his eyes.

After a few minutes, a ring of dead ends surrounded Anakin's chair as Ahsoka combed the hair still on his head out.

"All done!" she said at last, brushing the hair from Anakin's shoulders onto the floor.

"Looks great," Anakin commented, lifting a hand mirror off of the table and analyzing his reflection.

"Yup," Ahsoka agreed. "I'm the best."

Anakin rolled his eyes. This was the sixth time that they had done this, and he was beginning to think that it would become a routine between the two of them- no longer just a 'learning experience' because Ahsoka wanted to understand hair.

"You're the best," he repeated, clapping her on the shoulder.

"Don't you think it's getting a bit long?" Padme asked, running her hand through Anakin's curls. He huffed, angrily turning away from her.

"It's fine," he insisted, just like he had to Obi-Wan when he had commented on it the other day. 

"You should really cut it. It'll get in your eyes, and-"

"I said, it's fine. I don't want to cut it."

"Look, I know your still upset about Ahsoka- we all are. But, you can't just keep forgetting to take care of yourself," she continued gently.

"What's it to you if I grow my hair out?"

"I don't know... it's just not like you."

"Well, you'd better get used to it," he snapped. "Because I'm not planning on cutting it any time soon."

"Fine. I'm just trying to make sure you're okay," she grumbled back before stalking off. She hated it when he got distant like this.

"I'm not getting it cut unless Ahsoka's the one to do it," he whispered to himself.
