A/N: hey besties hope you like this one! I had so much fun writing it :)

"Ani, they're going to be here any minute! I need you to zip me up!" you called out to your husband as you stood in your bedroom, holding the fabric of your dress up against your chest.

"Oh Y/N, what would you do without me?" he chuckled as he approached your backside, pulling up the small zipper before snaking his hands around your waist, his head leaning down to place a gentle kiss on your bare shoulder.

"Eh, I'd get Threepio to help me" you joked back, "Seriously though, they're going to be here any minute, are you ready?" you asked, turning to face him. He had tamed his normally unruly locks and abandoned his usual Jedi attire for a more formal outfit. He nodded, placing his hands on your shoulders, now looking at you with slight concern.

"There's no need to be nervous, darling. It's not like we haven't had dinner with all of them before" he said, moving his hands down your arms, lacing his fingers with yours.

"I know, I just get so nervous when we host everyone, especially since we just moved into this place" you admitted. You and Anakin had invited your close friends over for a dinner party in your new home, but the stress of moving and trying to be the best hostess possible was beginning to overwhelm you.

"Everything will be just fine, you're not the only one hosting, you know" he reminded you, nudging you with his elbow before exiting the bedroom. You followed close behind him, entering your home's main living area, surveying the space for anything that might be out of place. Your focus was interrupted by a knock at the front door, and you rushed over to it, taking in a sharp breath before pulling the large door open.

"Ah, Y/N it's so good to see you" the comforting voice of Obi-Wan spoke, his wife Satine beside him. You greeted them both with a quick embrace as they stepped through the doorway, Anakin engulfing his former Master in a brotherly hug as he stepped into the living room. You shut the door behind them, following the group into the living room to await the arrival of your other guests.

"Your interior decorating skills are amazing, Y/N" Satine complimented, looking around the open floor plan before her gaze settled on Anakin, who looked at her with an exaggerated frown. "Oh, come on Anakin, I know all of this was Y/N's idea" she teased, giving your husband a knowing look.

"He helped a little bit, mostly just with the heavy lifting" you replied, giving your husband a teasing smile. There was another knock at the door, and this time Anakin answered, opening the door for Padme to step inside, her boyfriend Rex following suit. She headed directly towards you, wrapping you into a hug before presenting you an intricate bottle of wine.

"I found this bottle in my wine cellar the other day" she explained, "I thought it would be perfect for the occasion." You nodded and smiled, making your way into the kitchen to retrieve some glasses, setting them on the coffee table so Padme could pour the lightly colored drink. Clinking your glasses together, you and the two other women sipped the wine slowly, savoring the tart yet sweet flavor of the liquid. 

Meanwhile, Anakin was showing Rex and Obi-Wan around your new home, making sure to point out that he was the one who put all of the furniture together. While waiting for your last two guests to arrive, you left Satine and Padme in the living room as you made your way to the kitchen, where C3PO and R2D2 were at work preparing dinner.

"How's everything going in here, boys? Need any help?" you asked the droids, watching as they clambered through the kitchen.

"Not to worry Mistress Y/N, dinner will be ready shortly" C3PO replied, to which R2 let out a beep of agreement. You thanked the pair before heading back out into the living room, where your last two guests were finally stepping through the front door.
