I was looking over some papers in my study, when I heard a knock on the door, "Come in." I say, and I look up and see Anakin, my crush.

Anakin and I have been best friends since we were ten years old. Obi-Wan and my father were really good friends, and I still remember the day I met Anakin, I was a princess at that time.
•
"Y/N, will you please come down here?" I heard my father shout from the hall way. "I'm coming father!" I shout and started walking down the stairs, and that's when I see him. A boy with dusty blonde hair, and looked like he was the same age as me.

"Yes, father?" I say, looking at the boy.

My father gestured for me to come over to him, and I walked to him, "This is Obi-Wan Kenobi, a good friend of mine." He says, and I walk over to Obi-Wan and do a courtesy bow, which I was taught to do when I met someone new. Obi-Wan bowed back, "It's nice to meet you, Obi-Wan." I said.

He chuckled, "The pleasure is mine." He replied, and I looked over at the boy, "And this is Anakin Skywalker,
Y/N. He is Obi-Wan's Padawan learner." My father said, and I did the same bow.

But Anakin grabbed my hand and shook it, "It's nice to meet you." He said. And I answered, "Likewise."

We continued to stare at each other, until my father asked me to to show him around the palace, so I did.

We talked for what seemed like hours,
"I've always wanted to be a Jedi." I say, and Anakin smiles at me, "What's it like to be a princess, and all?" He asked, and I sighed.

I plopped down into the grass, "It's kind of boring, actually. My mother doesn't let me do certain things, I'm just suppose to sit here and look pretty." I say, and Anakin looks at me,

"You are really pretty." He said and I smiled.

Then, we got older, and things started to change, I started to develop feelings for Anakin. But I kept those feelings locked away, because I knew he would never feel the same.

He came to visit me, while Obi-Wan visited with my father. We were seventeen at the time, and were walking through the beautiful gardens, and we went to our spot. It was a tree that was on a hill that over looked the entire kingdom, and we sat down together.

Anakin laid his head on my lap, looking up at the sky, while I messed with his short hair. We always did this, even when we were little, we would talk about our lives, he would ask how the princess life was going, and I would ask him question about the Jedi. But today was different, and I knew something had to be wrong with him.

"Anakin, what's wrong? You seem kind of off, and don't tell me it's nothing. Because I can read you like an open book." I say, and his beautiful eyes met mine, I prayed that he couldn't see the sudden colors rise to my cheeks.

He stared at me for a moment, and then his gaze turned back toward the sky, "Y/N.. I think I'm in love." He said, and I stopped playing with his hair,

"O-oh.. Okay.." I said, and it felt like someone stabbed me, but I continued to play with his hair, and act as if nothing was wrong. We sat there in silence, until my curiosity got the best of me.

"Well, is she beautiful Ani?" I asked, and a smile tugged at his lips, "Very beautiful. Her eyes glisten with every move, and her hair is so beautiful. But don't get me started on her beauty.. She's beautiful inside and out, she would risk her life for someone else, and that makes her even more beautiful..." He said, and I began to dislike this girl, even though I've never met her. I don't want to know her name, but I envy her.
"When she smiles, it's like time stands still, but when she smiles at me, my heart stops." He says, and I 'accidentally' yanked his hair, "Ow!" He shouts.

"I'm sorry! And she sounds quite lovely." I say, clearly lying to him.
•
To this day, I still don't know who Anakin was talking about. Back then, he would bring this mystery girl up sometimes, but now, he doesn't mention her at all. We both have changed a lot, I am a Queen now, and Anakin is a Jedi Knight. Plus, we're older now, we're both twenty-one.

I was looking over some papers in my study, when I heard a knock on the door, "Come in." I say, and I look up and see Anakin.

I get up, and he walks over to me, engulfing me in a hug, and I breathed in his scent.

I ran my fingers through his hair, "Your hair is so much longer." I say, and he smiles, "Do you like it, Y/N/N?"

"Of course. You look hand- great with it." I say, sitting back down in the chair, and he sat in a chair across from me, looking a bit disappointed.

We were talking about some things when he suddenly blurted out, "I'm going on mission." He said, and I looked up at him, "Ani, you always go on missions." I say, and look down at my papers.

"But this one is different... It's dangerous, and it's one of those ones that will last until I get the job done. And we're looking at up to five months, or even a year." He said, and my eyes met his.

I didn't know what to say, "And I could die on this mission." He said, and looked down, and I walked over to him, and hugged him. It felt like it was the only thing I could do, since I was speechless.

"W-when are you leaving?" I ask him, and he replies, "Tomorrow." He said, and I looked over at him, and I walked out onto my balcony, "I came here because, I might never get the chance to say this." He said, following me.

"Say what, Anakin?" I ask and he comes closer to me, and his hands brush over mine, and I could hear my heartbeat in my ears, "I love you." He said, and he pulled my chin up, and I had to tip toe, but his lips eventually met mine.

It felt like millions of fire works were set off in my chest, I was screaming internally. His lips were soft, and our lips synced together, we both had to pull apart to breathe, and his forehead leaned against mine,
"I've always loved you, too. But, what about that other girl you were always talking about when we were younger?" I ask him, and he grins.

"That girl was you, Y/N. When I met you when I was a kid, I fell in love with you. I was just too little to know what those feelings were, and as I got older, I fell in love with you more and more everyday. And I lied to you that day because I wanted to see if you liked me back." He said, and I smiled.

"Oh." Was all I could say and we began to laugh, I couldn't push the thought of how I envied myself.

Then I remembered about his mission, and my heart dropped. When we finally both say 'I love you' he has to leave for a long time, how cliché is that?

He picked up my chin, "Y/N, I promise I will be back. I will try to get this mission over with as fast as I can." He said, and I pulled his head down so I could kiss him. He hugged me, and I hugged back, bit wanting to let go of him. "I'll be back." He whispered,
"I promise."
