LIVE IN YOUR LIGHT | anakin skywalker x fem oc

19.

I am awakened by the sun gradually blinding me. I rub my eyes before opening them. A huge headache makes me automatically close my eyes. I stand up and put my hand on my forehead remembering that I ended up drunk yesterday with Anakin in a bar.

But I don't really remember what I did or said or even when I got home. I get up and walk out of my room and into the kitchen. I heat up some coffee and pour it into a cup, I also take a pill to get rid of my headache. I take my cup before taking a sip.

I look at the buildings through my bay window. The sun had risen only a few hours ago, it illuminates the apartment perfectly, I am about to take another sip of coffee.

"Good morning."

I jump abruptly before turning around and seeing Anakin, a cup in his hand. I place my hand over my heart.

"You scared me...

- Sorry...

- I forgot you were staying here for a week." I say with a sigh.

I then scan him before I see that he was dressed in a white t-shirt, molding his muscular arms and a grey colored jogging suit. It makes a change from his jedi outfit. But I have to admit, the outfit was distracting.

"I was drunk last night, wasn't I?" I said as I turned around, grabbing my coffee cup.

I was honestly afraid I had said or done something stupid, so I preferred to ask, I hear Anakin answer me, I then turn back to him.

"Yeah, you confused a lamp with the sun.

- What an idiot." I whisper.

Anakin stifles a laugh before leaning against the counter behind him, he runs his hand through his jogging pocket before taking a sip of his coffee, he looks down at me, a smile on his lips.

Why does he have to look at me like that? It's so destabilizing. After a few seconds of hesitation, I finally decide to ask him what I might have said or done last night.

"Did I... Did I say or do anything... Weird last night?"

Anakin frowns as he tilts his head to the side while keeping his gaze on me, he speaks up.

"Why? Are you afraid you told me something I'm not supposed to know?"

I stifle a laugh as I frown before I start to stutter.

"W-What?"

Anakin flashes a sneer at the corner of his lips before walking over to me, he sets his coffee cup on the counter behind me, he lets his hand rest on it. He lowers his face to mine, inking his gaze into mine.

"I said, are you hiding something from me Oriana?" He says in a hoarse voice.

I breathe quickly and hard, making my chest move up and down. This closeness with Anakin reminded me oddly of that moment six months ago in the kitchen on Naboo. I was starting to lose my temper, and the fact that he was able to do this annoyed me to no end.

I still took it upon myself to show him that he didn't have that hold on me, even though he did. I take a long breath before answering Anakin.

"No, I'm not hiding anything from you Anakin."

He stifles a laugh, causing a sneer to appear on his lips, he lowers his eyes before raising them and stepping back, he picks up his cup again and takes a sip before speaking.

"You haven't said or done anything weird."

I am relieved, I finish my coffee before leaving in my room to get dressed. I head off to shower then put on a tight white tank top with low cut khaki green cargo pants. I tie my hair in a glued braid, I let the braid fall on my chest.

I put on black patent boots. I walk towards my bedside table before opening the drawer and taking my lightsaber that I hide under my pants. I walk out of my room before I see Anakin in his Jedi outfit, sitting on the sofa.

"I'm off to buy a new sword, I'll be back in less than an hour." I say.

I needed a new one after the elves took it from me in the arena 6 months ago. I had waited to go to Coruscant to buy a new one.

"I'll go with you." Anakin said as he stood up.

I spoke up, turning to Anakin.

"No, I won't be long.

- But I have to go with you, there are people out there who want you dead."

He wasn't wrong, many people wanted me dead after what happened in the arena. Bounty hunters are paid a lot of money to capture me, politicians would like to lock me up and keep me under surveillance for the rest of my life.

"Okay, if you want."

We head to the elevator before getting off and walking away.
