Authors Note: This is one of those song related Oneshots, forgot what they are called, anyways, the story will be linked to a song. This is pure AU btw, I don't really see Obi-Wan or Satine doing the things describes in the song but I felt like most of it fits them.

Song: Need You Now by Lady Antebellum.

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor.

A blonde haired woman sat on the floor in front of her messy bed. Her hair was ruffled and unorganized, she stared at a hologram photo of her with someone she cared for deeply. She has no luck sleeping that night, her mind just drifted to him...

Reaching for the phone 'cause I can't fight it anymore.

The woman glanced on the holo-tranciver, and then away from it. She couldn't - He was a Jedi, he couldn't do this. Besides, he probably wasn't even awake at this hour...

And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
For me it happens all the time...

"Oh Obi..." she let out a heavy sigh. "Do you ever think about me? About us?" Her head now hung low, long lockes of blonde hair drooped over her eyes. After moments of silence she spoke again, "I do..."

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.

Satine glanced over to her clock by her bed, it was past midnight on Mandalore. "I need to sleep..." she spoke to herself, however she couldn't bring herself to get back into her bed.

Said I wouldn't call but I've lost all control and I need you now.

Something came over Satine, she rose from the floor and to the holo-tranciver. She quickly types in the code to reach Obi-Wan's personal tranciver.

And I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now.

It has been months since he aided her with the Death Watch, she just needed to hear his voice.

Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door.
Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before.

The ginger haired Jedi Master sat alone at a local bar down on Corascant. Obi-Wan generally wasn't the type for a bar, however now he was missing someone. He didn't know where else to go.

The lone Jedi took another drink or the odd liquid in the small glass handed to him by the bartender. He thought back to a time when he protected the Duchess many years ago and their secret rendezvous. Obi-Wan would wait in a bar similar to this one. Then she would come in the door, usually desguised as a mere peasant, however to Obi-Wan she was mich more.

And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
For me it happens all the time.

The Jedi stared down at his drink. Her name dashed across his mind. He couldn't think like this, he was a Jedi, he made a vow to the order. However there was an uneasy feeling in his heart...

It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now.

It had been months since he had last seen her... Yet it felt like ages.

Said I wouldn't call but I've lost all control and I need you now.

The Jedi just needed to check in on her and make sure everything was alright, yeah, that was his excuse...

He typed in the code to reach Satine's private tranciver. After a few seconds the holo-tranciver buzzed and displayed a "line busy" message.

And I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now.

Obi-Wan sat the tranciver down on the counter top and took another sip of his drink.

Oh, whoa
Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all.

This was probably for the best, for both of them. Satine didn't need the distraction and Obi-Wan would possibly be expelled from the Jedi Order.

It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.

Satine dropped the holo-tranciver onto the dresser where it originally sat as she slumped back down to the floor. "Obi..." she paused, "I need you here."

And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now.

Obi-Wan planted the small drinking glass down on the counter after finishing another one.

"You want another, Master Jedi?" The bartender asked. Obi-Wan simply shook his head no. He had a really dumb and risky idea, something like what Anakin would come up.

The Jedi rose from his chair and ran out of the bar and toward his starfighter parked in the bay nearby.

And I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now

Tears rolled down Satine's cheek, she remembered Obi-Wan's words when he saved her only months ago.

"Had you said the word, I would have the Jedi Order..." those words where burned in Satine's mind. She wished and longed for a time when things where different.

The elegant woman found herself drifting of to sleep as she propped herself up against her dresser.

Suddenly the sound of a starfighter engine awoke her. She had no idea how much time had passed, but she rose and sprinted to her balcony.

A triangle shaped starfighter approached, almost like a Jedi starfighter. She tingled with excitement and the thought of that being Obi-Wan. Why was she setting herself up for disappointment? She pondered the question. It probably wasn't him, she was probably imagining this.

I just need you now.

Obi-Wan landed the starfighter without haste. The city was quiet, not a guard or civilian in sight. The Jedi master sprinted down the sidewalks toward her palace.

He reached the steps and stopped in his tracks as the large mosaic doors before him shifted open...

Oh, baby, I need you now.

Satine rushed down the stairs to the first floor. Her guards and other maidens were all off duty and most likely asleep. She had to see for herself who had landed.

She reached the first floor and stood before the large glass doors, through the colored panes she could see a familiar figure.

She rushed to open the set of double doors, and there he stood.

"Obi" Satine said, her voice in shock.

"Satine" Obi-Wan replied as he began to ascend the steps toward her.
