Another Path (Anakin Skywalker) (#Wattys2016)

Fifteen || Redemption

Anakin's POV

I stood in front of the council. I could sense Prim pacing outside the door. "You will remain a Jedi, you may be on this council but we take away your rank of master for now," they explained. "We will let this go for now, once you prove yourself you will be given the rank of master again," Obi Wan said.

They had me leave. Prim ran up to me, "so?"

"I'm a Jedi and I'm back in the council but I'm not a master," I explained.

"That's amazing!" she cheered hugging me. I wrapped my arms around her squeezing her close to me, I'm so happy to have everything back. I will redeem myself.

"Let's go home," I suggested.

"Sounds perfect," she smiled as we walked to the small ship and went home.

We got home and Prim went to change into her normal clothes and put her hair in a braid. She walked up to me and wrapped her arms around me crying. "What's bothering you," I asked wrapping my arms around her comforting her.

"Everything, I've been a wreck without you, Anakin I can't live without you," she cried.

"I can't live without you either, Prim?" I asked.

She looked up at me.

"Marry me?" I asked.

"Yes! YES!" She cheered. She jumped up and kissed me.

"I love you so much," I said.

"I love you more," she smiled. "Now please change out of that horrible armor and give me the helmet," she demanded.

I gave her the helmet. I followed her into the bedroom, she put the helmet in the closet. When she left the room I put on my Jedi robes. I put the Darth Vader armor with the helmet.

I walked out of the bedroom. I sat next to her on the couch. "Where will we have our wedding," she asked resting her head on my shoulder.

"I... don't know," I really don't, I didn't think that through.

"Well we could always get married on the balcony," she laughed.

I looked down at her, that's a good idea actually. "Oh you're serious," she said.

"Yeah, that's probably the only place we can," I said.

"True," she said.

"I have to redeem myself, I can't make it worse by them expelling both of us from the Jedi order," I explained.

"I know," she agreed, "I'm tired, I'm going to bed."

She walked into the bedroom. I sat on the couch thinking. Why did they forgive me so easily? I'm so happy they did though.

I'm marrying Prim. I'm marrying Prim! I can't believe. I didn't know what to say to her and the perfect words slipped out! She said yes! Oh this is the greatest moment ever! Until the wedding.

I still feel like they haven't forgiven me. They'll have to eventually right?
