The clone wars one shots

Sleep (Anakin Centric 1)

Anakin paced nervously around the shared quarters he had. He shared with Ahsoka but they slept in bunk beds. He had a sudden burst of energy but was conflicted about leaving the room.

Ahsoka always seemed to notice his eyebags somehow and due to a minor error, his robotic arm wasn't functioning as normal. This made him more susceptible to pranks from Fives or a surprise visit from Kix.

Food. He wanted food. And sleep, obviously. But there was ration bar with his name on it and a meeting in five minutes. Grabbing the small bar of food, he sprinted out of his quarters to the meeting, hoping he wouldn't be late again.

Okay, he was now stood outside the meeting room with a malfunctioning limb and the very visible effects of sleep deprivation. Lovely. Just lift the working arm and everything will be fine.

Anakin pressed a few buttons on the panel next to the door and walked in, putting up his shields so Ahsoka or Obi Wan wouldn't sense his exhaustion. Just smile and contribute when needed. Easy.

"Ah, General, we wondered when you were coming, now we can get started." Admiral Yularen said as Anakin made his way to a seat in the large room next to Rex and Ahsoka. He started speaking about something but every word that came out of his mouth, made Anakin's body sink further into his seat.

His eyes were drifting shut now, everything outside his mind was white noise. Sleep was inevitable. But then someone nudged his awake, well, half awake.

"Wha?" Anakin murmured, it was Ahsoka. Good, she woke him up.

"You all right?" She asked, concern visible in her voice. He nodded tiredly and tried to pay attention to the meeting, even if everything was blurring together and there were two of everything.

The meeting ended, when did that happen? Standing up on unsteady feet, Anakin slowly made his way back to his quarters. Well, probably, he had no idea where he was going but could sense a rather snippy force signature behind him.

*pov swap to Ahsoka <33333*

He turned around, but instead of stopping to face Ahsoka, he forgot what he was doing and just span in a circle. Ahsoka raised a non-existent eyebrow at this.

"Heya Snips!" Anakin sounded happy at least, he wasn't going to be happy when she was through with him. "Hey Skyguy!" Ahsoka replied, getting ready to com Obi Wan so she could actually stand a chance wrestling him to sleep.

"Soo, how many hours of sleep didja get, and don't lie about it." She asked with a smug face, but also concerned for her master, he looked terrible.

"Enough-" he started but tripped suddenly, luckily Ahsoka caught him. Asleep already. Her Master was a terrible role model.

Okay, get him to Kix now, Kix'll fix him up. Maybe he will slap some sense into Anakin, though she doubted anyone could reason with him. He was breathing lightly against her arm, his hair brushing over his eyes. He looked so small in her arms. But enough standing around!

She dragged Anakin to the Medbay, eyes locked at Kix and with a stern expression said, "If he doesn't get enough sleep, call me." She handed Anakin - who was still deeply asleep - to Kix and walked out the room, proud of herself but also concerned.
