Anakin P.O.V

"I said this one!" Padmé tells me, handing me the other leftover bag. "Do I get paid?" I ask. Padmé laughs. "Your funny." Padmé laughs again. "I'm not joking! I need the money." I reply. Padmé smiles. "Carry this?" She asks. "Sure, why not." I answer

I finish bringing in the leftovers. No money. I need it for an important event. How are my love and I going to get married if I can't by a stupid wedding ring!? Ye.. I wanna propose to her. I love her. I have to do it! It's my dream!

"Ani?" Padmé walks into my room. "Hm?" I ask. I turn and she her sitting in my bed. "What's up?" She says. I laugh. "Nothing much..how about you?!" I laugh again. "No seriously, what's wrong?" Padmé asked. I look up at her. "Nothing." I lie. I don't want her to know about my proposal.

As I convince Padmé that I'm totally fine, she leaves. Phew. I hate lying to people I love. It hurts my heart. But it's for the best off us! For the best off our futures...
