Chapter 12: learning

Obi wan's Pov:

*knock*

*knock*

my eyes groggily open in unison with my mouth as i managed to croak out

"Alright already I'm up, I'm up."

i hear the feet outside my door move away down the hall to the living area. slowly my eyes adjust to the sunlight that illuminates my room, becoming accustomed to the yellow haze of the morning sun i stretch my legs and arms to awake them from their slumber. i receive the usual release of tension from my joints as i force them to pull me from my covers to stand on my carpeted floor. weakly i am able to pull myself to the cupboard. pulling from it some casual clothes, i put on my attire before i walk from my room to the living room.

entering the dining area i am met with a peculiar sight. rubbing my eyes, i try to clarify whether what I'm seeing is real. it is. Anikan is awake and ready before me. usually, it takes a little coercion to wake Anikin, but there are the rare occasions where he is up and ready before others. and these occasions usually had something in common and that, was that there was something very exciting for my adoptive brother. and understanding last night's events, i have a solid idea of what that might be. i noticed that anakin was giving me a questioning look as i sat down in the chair next to his. my father passed a bowl of cereal to me and i began consuming it, whilst me and anakin gave each other looks that could only be described as a non verbal comunication.

what is it?

nothing

no there's something.

oh really.

padme?

maybe

i finished our talk if you could call it that, by giving an inquisitive look trying to guess what was on anakins mind. while i would initially have believed it was linked to his date, now i am not so sure. finishing my cereal i turn to anakin who had long ago finished his, waiting or me as to continue our conversation. getting up from my chair i move towards our rooms for a more private conversation not knowing what anakin might say.

"Ok what is it?"

"What do you mean obi wan?"

"You know what i mean."

"Know i don't know."

his mouth began forming a grin, i hated when he did this, playing the fool.

"Is it to do with padme."

"kinda."

"what do you mean kinda?"

letting up anakin began

"look i thought about what i said last night."

"ok."

"About how it might be good for you to go on a date and more specifically one with satine. now wait a second and let me finish before interrupting. your going to be like we're just friends, but i can tell you like her. maybe you don't realize you do or maybe you do but your to embarrassed to tell your best friend, but you like her so i want to help you." 

"anakin. we are just friends."

"Knew you'd say that. but oh well when your ready to man up and confront your feelings I'm here."

and with that anakin walked into his room and out with a jacket on.

"Now get finished and ready we're gonna meet up with the guys at the diner, remember."

fives Pov:

anakin and obi wan shortly after we had sat in the usual corner booth. anakin sat next padme as they began talking about their date and when would their next one be. obi wan joined rex and cody as they were going over the upcoming assignments, echo me and lux were in our own conversation over the effects of Marty's time travelling in back to the future (idk just something). we all had taken notice to ahsoka's absents. she'd messaged the group chat that she was with bariss, but i doubted it, ahsoka had been quite despondent and seclusive recently. i don't have a clue why though, but everyone seems to be aware something is wrong.
