The Makings Of Greatness | Obi-Wan Kenobi

Not Thinking

Obi-Wan P.O.V.

"Obi-Wan... Hey... Kenobi... Ah-"

I hear my name being whispered in the dark before a loud thud on the floor near my bed. Rubbing my eyes awake, I turn on the light beside my bed. Glancing over the edge of my bed, I see Vale laying on the ground holding her foot.

She's in her night clothes groaning on the floor. It's not that late, but just late enough for most of the Jedi Temple to be asleep. Giving her a sympathetic smile, I push my covers off me, asking in a soft tone.

"Darling, are you alright?"

"Yeah... Just give me a second." She grits out of her teeth before grabbing the edge of the bed and picking herself up. When she's standing, she lets out a breath and gives me a guilty smile, questioning. "Has that chair always been there?"

"Afraid so... Come here."

I offer her the same crooked smile and lift the cover for her to get in. She slides underneath the blanket and I drop it on top of her. Wrapping an arm around her, I pull her closer to my chest.

My hand skims down her waist lazily before grabbing the back of her thigh and tugging her leg over my waist. She sighs into my chest while hooking her leg around me as her arm wraps around my waist. When feeling her settle into me, my hands go back up her body to hold her back under her shirt.

"May I ask why you invited yourself into my room at this time of the night?" I mumble while rubbing my hand up and down her back before teasing. "Not that I'm complaining, just the entrance wasn't subtle."

"You haven't snuck into my room lately." She whispers before lifting her head to look up at me. Scrunching her face with an embarrassed smile, she points out. "It's been a few days since we've... You know... And I..."

"Vale, sweetheart."

I breathe out with a smug look, sensing what she's trying to say. Dropping my head and putting my hand on the back of her head, I offer her a sloppy, dramatic kiss. She squeals as my hand keeps her in place for me to give her a wet kiss.

Grinning into her lips, I slow my movements and kiss her with more attentively. My body moves to lie on top of hers and her hands come to hold my biceps. Tilting my head, I deepen the kiss and move my lips more possessively over hers.

I feel her legs hike my hips as I kiss her thoroughly. Lean my head back but still holding the back of her head, I catch her eyes with mine. Smiling with admiration, I whisper while shaking my head.

"I meant nothing by it."

"Really?" She teases and tilts her head, pointing out knowingly. "This is the first time we have done nothing for almost a week."

"It's been five days." I let out with my amused smile before kissing her chin. Vale sighs, making me lift my head again to look at her again. I find her frowning and whisper in concern. "The fourth day is usually your breaking point, Kenobi."

Staring at her curiously, I try to figure out what she's concerned about. She's not wrong. I usually can't help myself after the fourth day from the last time we've slept together. Though we have a mission to leave for tomorrow so I didn't think of try staying up for my own selfish needs.

I try not to the night before traveling in space. Watching her slightly worried expression, a thought dawns on me of what's really on her mind. Brushing my fingers through her hair, I ask, lightly offended.

"Do you think I'm getting bored with you, V?"

"No... Well, yes. Maybe." She stutters while sighing in frustration before pointing out the obvious. "Our first time was four years ago... At some point, the desire will fade."
