Love, Mrs. Skywalker

Dear Diary,

       Anakin is back home!

       I haven't seen him since our honeymoon and I've missed him so much! This last month has been miserable without him. Sure I've had plenty of work to do in the Senate, but without my darling husband, life just doesn't feel right.

      I probably sound really corny, but after only a short time together, being pulled away from Anakin is torture.

     The moment he walked through the door, my heart stopped. He was home! I threw my arms around him and showered him with kisses. He held me close for a long time. He murmured sweet words in my ear between kisses, "I've missed you Padme. How did I ever let you go? Oh, I love you. Oh, Padme!"

     I couldn't help but cry tears of joy. He was safe! I had been so worried! But now I knew he was safe! I only managed to whispered his name over and over while he kissed my forehead.

     But sadly, we only have tonight to be together. The Council needed him sooner than expected so he has to leave in the morning. Its bitter sweet having him home, I'm so excited he's back but at the same time, I dread looking him again.

     Right now, Anakin is speaking with Master Obi-wan. I don't know what it's about but it seemed important.

     Anakin says that after this message, he's shutting off his communicator for the night and giving me a special evening!

     I'm just so happy to have him back!

                                         Love, Mrs. Skywalker
