"Do you want to talk about it?" Obi wan asked as he walked me back to my room. Anakin was going to go to Naboo with Padme for her protection in the morning and Obi wan and I were going to keep investigating. My hands couldn't stop shaking.

"Amberlee, stop." He said grabbing my hands in his and looking right into my eyes.

"C'mon, lets get you to your quarters." He said. I nodded and kept walking totally out of it. I had no will to do anything right now. I never thought my past would come back to haunt me like this but I guess I should have seen it coming. We got back to my quarters and I sat down, Obi wan sitting next to me and started rubbing my back. 

"Why do you like me?" I asked him leaning up against his shoulder. 

"Well.....you're sweet and caring. You are beautiful and your determination to be the best that you can be and I like you more than a friend....." He said making me smile.

"I like you as more than a friend too and I feel I can trust you when I tell you what happened...but I have never told anyone this, not even Anakin knows this." I told him looking up at him to make sure he wasn't going to tell. I moved my hair out of the way, off my neck.

"You see this? This is the mark that slaves get when they are going to be...chosen for certain uses, as a slave..." I told him. He seemed clueless, I rolled my eyes.

"Think about it Obi wan......Zeltrons are known for their seductiveness, you said it yourself...so what do you think they would mark me like this for." I told him with an aggravated tone. 

"Ohhhh....Oh. Did anything ever?" He said fading off as I shook my head. I sighed before continuing.

"I was freed before I was sold for that but my nightmare that I was having was about when my father put this mark on me." I said tears starting to come out of my eyes. 

"Do you know that I have never been able to put my hair up? This mark doesn't go away and then tonight...tonight I saw him." I told him.

"Your father?" He asked. All I could do was nod because all the tears came out stronger. He hugged me more and tried to sooth me. I pushed him back and laid on his chest. 

"Yes...this is a symbol...a symbol that something worse is coming, a darkness Obi wan, darkness will fall." I told him. I could tell I scared him a little but I just felt it.

"Maybe you should go to sleep." He said.

"Will you stay? I don't want to be alone, at least wait until I fall asleep." I asked him. I felt him nod as I dozed off into a black abyss. 

I awoke slowly, on something hard. Wait...is Obi wan still here. My eyes opened all the way and my head popped up. He looked so peaceful sleeping, so calm and relaxed. When I tried to move out from his grip, it tightened and his eyes opened slightly.

"Good morning." He said. I laughed.

"Good morning...do you realize that I just tried to move and your grip tightened." I said smirking. He smiled. 

"Its probably because I don't want you to go." He said flirtatiously. I was caught in his eyes and looked to his lips to signal for him to lean in. We leaned in and met each other for our first kiss together, it was full of passion and emotion.
