Ahsoka POV

Anakin and I had continued our make out session for sometime before we each confessed our feelings properly and Anakin explained what had happened with Padme. At first I was shocked at what the Senator had done and angry that she would betray her husband like that, but at the same time I was glad she had because it meant that Anakin and I could be in love.

'You have no idea how long I've wanted to kiss you.' I smiled, whispering against his lips.

'Not as long as me to kiss you.' He replied.

'But what about you and Padme?'

'We're over.'

'But just because a Jedi got away with being married to a Senator doesn't mean that two Jedi's in love will go unnoticed by the Council.'

'So what? I don't care anymore if someone finds out that I'm in love.'

'Anakin, I've already left the Order once and no offence to you, but I'm not ready to do it again.'

'I know, I'm sorry, that was a selfish thing to say.' He glanced down at the floor ashamed of himself.

'It's ok, but.... I sense that there's something you're not telling me, what is it?' He sighed and turned away.

'The Chancellor has requested that I become his personal representative on the Jedi Council.'

'What!?' I asked shocked.

'Yeah, but while the Council is allowing me to be part of it they won't make me a Master!' He growled furious.

'That....' I didn't know what to say, I could understand his anger, but it was very strange that the Chancellor had appointed him on the Council without even consulting Master Yoda and Master Windu. Something bad was in play here and I think that Anakin is at the heart of it, whether he knows it or not.

'It's terrible! It's unacceptable! It's never been done before and it just shows how low their opinions are of me! What did I ever do to deserve this?! I-'

I cut him off with a kiss, hoping to cool down that fiery mouth of his.

'Anakin, I understand that you're upset with the Councils decision, but all we can do is accept it and try to make the best of it, at least you're on the Council now, right?' I asked pulling back from him just enough so that we were still at arms length from each other.

'You're right, Ahsoka.' He nodded.

'I'm glad you agree.' I smiled. 'Now why don't we get out of here for a while, hmm? I think we have a lot to talk about.' He agreed and we walked out of my room, headed for the entrance to the Temple.

Alexa POV

I opened the door to my room just enough to see Anakin and Ahsoka walk out of her room and head down the corridor, something was definitely up with those two, but I know I shouldn't be prying. Which is why I shut the door again and lied down on my bed, staring up at the ceiling.

Over the last few days my mind has been going absolutely crazy, first there's this whole thing with Rendal and I, then there's Anakin and Ahsoka and whatever is going on with them, not to mention Lelo and I sense there's something is up with Anakin's meeting with the Chancellor....

I sighed, this is getting out of control.

I didn't turn over as I heard the hiss of my door when it slid open and a slightly sound of wheels turning. Neither of us said anything and I soon felt soft, gentle fingers on my montrals.
