"Ani-" she faltered, carrying her pain with her words. Anakin smiled sadly and cupped the woman's face in his hands.

"You'll be okay." He whispered and kissed her temple. "I love you so much." She took his hands off her face and stared into his ocean like eyes, getting lost in the moment. She teared up, seeing her true love leave for war. He then went for a deep, loving kiss.

She breathed out and let go and parted him as he aflew off. She stood, watching him leave into the sunset. She left the hangar secretly and went back to her room without making any appearance to the other people socializing.

When she got there, she immediately collapsed on her bed and cried for the longes. She rarely cried, and this seemed to be a valid reason to break down. She lapsed the times she had with Anakin and the tears seemed to flow harder.

"Syla?" A man's voice came from behind the limp woman. She wiped her eyes quickly with her robe and turned to see a man with the most ginger of hair on his face staring down at her. She stood and fixed herself, transforming from weak to authoritative. Her eyes gazed beyond him towards her door, making a note that she wanted him to leave.

"Yes? Is there a problem?" Syla asked. She stepped away from the bed and went next to the window, opening the blinds.

"You were crying. Why?"

"I'm fine." She faltered again and held back her tears.

"It's because of Anakin isn't it? You lo-"

"Can you leave, master? I have... Work to attend to and you are distracting me."

The man shook his head and took a step into the girl's room, putting out his hands as he spoke. "This is wrong, it is against the Jedi code to have-"

"Kenobi" Syla boomed. She looked back out the window and closed her eyes to erase the intruders face. Obi-Wan planted his feet where he stood.

"I want to convince you to stop this." He pushed. She clenched her fist and whipped her attention to him.

"Why does what I do concern you so? Just leave me be, I know what I am doing."

"You have no idea. What this could do, who it would hurt."

The last part ran through her mind and scoffed. 'Who it would hurt'. She was the only one hurting.

She glared at the man and looked him up and down, yelling in her head for such a rude person he was being. She wanted him to leave so she could cry in private.

"Go." She sneered harmfully.

Obi-Wan, this time, walked towards the girl and grabbed her wrists swiftly. Syla restrained his grasp and pulled away but was not able to break free. He grabbed her tighter and looked deeply into her honey eyes. She was soon backed up to the window sill, with no way of escape. She then stopped fighting and waited to hear his words.

"Syla, you know what is going on."

"Kenobi, leave me alone, please." She cried, then continued to wiggle out of his hand.

He loosened his grip, but saw that she didn't leave his hand. He put his other hand up against the wall, cornering her fully. Her eyes were filled with fear. She breathed calmly, but inside, she was screaming for help.

With the mere thought, Obi-Wan closed the door using the force and Syla became antsy. She shook in his grasp. Obi-Wan then looked at her sincerely, like he was trying to get into her head. "I love you, Syla. And you love me, you know it."

"My god, this again? I did! Now I don't. I am in love with someone else and have eyes for only him. After what you did Obi, after what you did!" She faltered and looked away.

Obi-Wan let go of the woman and clenched his jaw. He couldn't bare to look at her after what she said. Rage balled up inside of him. He tried not to burst but soon, nothing could have held him back.

Obi-Wan grabbed Syla's cheeks and pulled her face uncomfortably close to his face. She pushed his body back from using just her weak arms.

"The past is in the past, when will you come to realize people change?" His gaze turned into agression.

"Kenobi!" Was all she could get out before he abruptly kissed her. It was violent and desprate. Syla resisted, but soon fell in and kissed Obi-Wan back. He pushed her back against the wall and shared no more than a breath before Syla turned her face away and scoffed.

"What the hell" she shook her head towards the ground and clasped her temple. Her blood became hot and a deep pit grew in her stomach. Obi-Wan analyzed her face and developed a sense of pride and hope.

"You enjoyed it, admit it." Obi-Wan pushed in a half lust half angered voice. Syla looked at him in his eye then pushed him out of her room like a mad woman. She yelled distasteful words after slapping his cheek.

As he stumbled out the room and fell oh his behind, he felt he was still in a position to speak. Obi-Wan smiled, "I will make you fall in love with me again." he tested. She spit at him and slammed her room shut, leaving him sitting in the hall.

She leaned on the door, rubbing her wrists as they throbbed. Syla replayed what happened with confusion. They had not kissed in years, and she felt a small nostalgia rising in her.
