The next afternoon, the clones were still in medbay resting, I snuck in at sunset to go see Fives. I looked at every one of the clones back and forth since they were covered with black curtains for privacy I'm guessing.
I finally found him at the end by the window. The sun from the sunset shinned bright on the side of his face.

He fluttered his eyes open to see me, he only woke up to hear my gasp for air.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you." I felt bad. I wanted to walk out but he grabbed my arm and I turned around, looked straight into his eyes.

"No, it's fine. Please stay, you actually make me feel better." He smiled and I couldn't help but smile even wider, he was so cute.

Suddenly I felt a rush feeling in my heart. I just thought he was cute in a way where I had feelings for him. Fuck!

I sat in the comfy chair beside him and we whispered. " I a-actually had a dream about y-you." He said, sheepishly, I just rolled my eyes and smiled at him.

"Was it about us falling in love?" I said jokingly, giggling it off. He just looked at me with admiration in his hazel eyes. I stopped smiling, there goes the heart- rush feeling again in my heart.
Fuck, I do like him, I thought.

"Yes, actually it was. When I saw you I felt happy." It was random to say that of him. "You know we can't form attachments Fives. I know you truly love me." I began to feel tears, flooding my eyes.

"You have no idea how long I've loved you. Nazari, I just want to be with you, even if we have to fight for our lives." I burst into quiet tears.

I tried wiping my tears, but they kept falling down my face. He sat up and pulled me into a tight embrace. My muffled crying was all he could hear, I loved him too.

I pulled away, wiping the rest of my tears away.
"You really do?" I questioned him, trying to smile.
He smiled at me.

"Oh Fives, you know you're not allowed to and neither am I. I also love you too but it's too risky." I felt my heart shattering, even at my own words.
He took my hand.

"I go crazy just thinking about you or even seeing you Nazari." I gave him a tight hug, a tear fell on his shoulder. He felt it since he gripped his arms around me tighter and pulled me closer, like he was protecting me, trying not to hurt him more from his shot.

I pulled away and looked at his adorable eyes. He scooted over and patted the bed, motioning me to come sit next to him. I climbed into bed next to him and laid down next to him.
I look over at him.

"Now what?" I was thinking of what we should talk about. He shrugged his shoulders, then I got an idea. "How is your chest feeling? Do you have enough strength to do anything?" I smiled slightly. "Actually I feel better than before. What was on your mind ?"

He tilted his head in confusion, it reminded me of a lost puppy. I quietly laughed for a moment. "What's so funny?" He gave me a little smirk and then he started laughing too, I swear we were so loud.

"Do you just want to sneak back to my room for the night? You know so we can actually talk ?" He smiled, god I love his smile. "Yeah, that'd be so fun." I smiled as we sat up and started sneaking out.

It felt like a detective game, where we sneak around and make sure the coast was clear. We both couldn't stop laughing.

There was someone coming around the corner, although I didn't notice and tried walking ahead. His strong arms pulled me back, I blushed uncontrollably.

"You know I see you two back there." It was Anakin, at least he was the least of our worries we'd expect. We walked out from behind the large pillar and nervously smiled at him.

"Hey there Anakin, how's it going?" I tried playing cool, he could definitely sense how nervous I am. He crossed his arms and gave us the "look". Were we in trouble ?

"Where are you two sneaking off to?" Me and Fives shared an awkward look before he spoke up. "We were just walking around a bit. You know to hang out." Fives sounded so genuine, Anakin looked at me again.

"This true?" Of course he asked me. I let out a loud sigh. "Yes, we just want to hang out tonight since we never really do." I tried sounding sad, so he'd feel bad and let us leave already.

"Aww how cute." I gave him a glare. He just laughed and walked off.
"Don't do stupid things Nazari!" He yelled back at me.

"We won't!" Me and Fives continued walking til we got to my room.

I punched in the code and we went in while the door closed behind us. "I'm going to change into my sleep wear, okay." He nodded as he laid back on my bed.

I was in my refresher, taking off my clothes one by one. I put my clothes in the laundry basket and put on my rather revealing sleep wear.

I wore thin shorts, halfway through my thighs. My top was also short, with lace off the shoulder style. Oh no, I forgot to do my laundry today. It was all I had to wear.

I walked out feeling very comfortable actually. I could see Fives just as comfortable.

He had his black pants on along with no shirt on, I knew he didn't like it on.
I chuckled when I saw him, my face was red.

I climbed into bed next to him and smiled at him.
"Girl, what?" He questioned me and both burst out laughing.

"Honestly me as a Jedi, I feel more emotional and happy than most." He smiled brightly.
We had a lot of smiling going on.

"I don't feel tired, I kinda want to stay up all night and talk to you." Fives tucked a strand of hair behind my ear.

"That'd be wonderful, Fives." We laid down next to each other, locking hands and looked at the ceiling.

I looked at him, and he looked at me. We both felt the same spark.
I wanted to talk to him forever.
