chapter thirteen

Freya was sitting in front of a window admiring the stars of the galaxy, it was her favorite part of traveling.

They were heading to Mustafar, where her little hideout was located.

Freya sensed someone's presence and turned towards the entrance, motioning for him to sit next to her.

"Have you seen the stars yet?" Freya then laughed at the silly question.

"Yeah..." Anakin looked up at the sky and then looked back at something more interesting to him. Freya, "there is a special one, that I can't stop seeing"

Freya's green eyes lit up so beautifully when she saw the stars that Anakin thought he could get lost in them and not look for the exit, just to stay a little longer.

"I know," Freya says, still focused on the sky, "just like me, it's that one over there, isn't it?"

"Yeah, that one over there" Anakin replies with a blank stare admiring Freya's profile.

"She is beautiful"

"She is and she has me mesmerized," he confessed.

“Whenever I see her I think that she is Jordie, my brother. he told me that when he was not there he would take care of me from a star "

Anakin saw in that moment how Freya had a moment of humanity. No jokes that covered up her injuries or suffering covered up with amusement. It was her opening, it was genuine.

Freya looked at Anakin several times to meet her gaze. Freya frowned.

"What do you see?"

Anakin smiled, Freya nudged his shoulder.

"You're so weird sometimes, Skywalker"

They both looked at the sky for a while longer, in complete silence, feeling comfortable in each other's presence.

"You know, I feel like we'd make a good team," Anakin says suddenly.

Freya nods, "Actually, between my brains and your strength, I'd say we make a good team."

"Yes, although technically I have brains and strength"

Freya laughed, Anakin looked at her happy to make her laugh like that.

"Maybe, but I have the smile and the winning personality, so-"

Anakin laughed, lowering his face so Freya wouldn't see him. She still looked at him.

"Are you laughing? Did I make you laugh or are you laughing at me?"

"Consider both," Anakin tells her between laughs, "you're funny too, little witch."

Freya poked him by the shoulder again. "Agh, don't call me that, Silas says it to annoy me"

"So what should I call you?" Anakin asked.

"I don't know. Maybe you'll know when we meet again, if that happens" Freya gave him a tempting smile. Anakin thought that he would do anything to make their paths cross again.

"We have arrived," Silas announced.

Everyone overflowed the ship, Nessa and Theos are there at the entrance of the hideout waiting for them. Silas turned to Anakin and held out his hand. Anakin looked slightly surprised, but still he shook his hand.

"Thank you jedi, I like you so a Little bit More.  Maybe next time I'll invite you to a barbecue" he told his then he walked away so Freya could say goodbye.

"Ignore him, we never barbecue" Freya tells him.

"A barbecue sounds good," Anakin agreed. Freya slapped his arm mockingly.

"You don't even know what it is"

"Well, if they invite me, I'll know" Anakin tells him mischievously.

They both remained silent, just looking into each other's eyes, as if they still refused to say goodbye.

Anakin then approached Freya, showing off her F-shaped necklace.

"I got it back from the things they took from you when you went to prison" he tells her in a lower tone, lowering his face to be closer to Freya's.

Freya looks at the necklace with a sad smile, reaching out her hand and clenching Anakin's fist and pulling him closer.

"Keep them"

Anakin looks at her surprised, he knew that her necklace was important to her.

"In case we don't meet again," she adds, "take good care of them, okay?" Freya began to walk away slowly.

Anakin held her fist with the necklace firmly over her heart.

"I will. Also, don't forget we have a date," Anakin yells and Freya looks at him confused, "you have to show me it's a barbecue."

Freya laughed, "You're a fool, Skywalker," she tells him before entering the hideout.

Anakin kissed the necklace, "it's time to go, RD-2"
