"Sorry that was awkward." Lux laughed, rubbing his neck.

James eyed him down, then he looked over to me, as I remained to look down.

The party still continued, not caring about our situation, we weren't causing seen anyways.

"Who exactly did you think she was, Lux?" He asked, placing his hand on my shoulder.

'Shit Lux always was a bad lair.'

"Oh um." He tried to regain his posture to look calm. "She look like my old girlfriend Ahsoka... um we had a big breakup, um what's her name?" He blabbered, but James mostly bought it.

"Ah I see. This is, um well... introduce yourself dear." He totally forgot my name.

"Aria Sir." I mumbled looking down.

"Isn't she a prize. I got her at the best price...free!" They both burst out laughing. Then a few others came to talk about my 'quality'.

'Pigs. What have you become Lux.'

After Lux laughed, he looked at James in a serious manner then he spoke again.  

"James we've been friends for awhile, and I hate to ask but... Me and my ex Ahsoka left on bad terms.  Could I borrow your Slave for a few minutes?  I promise I'll leave her intact." Lux asked rubbing his.

James looked at him, studying his behavior.  Then another 'friend' of his came over to talk.

Caught off guard he laugh, and smirked.  He grabbed Lux's hand to dab him up. "Of course bother there's a spare room, go to the corner door, take a left, then second room to your right."

"Haha thanks man, promise I wont take long."  Lux said putting his hand on my back and started to walk away.

"Anytime Lux, but if this becomes more than a one time thing, then well have to talk about how I'll benefits from this."

With that, he put on his show stopping smile that made me sick, and started talking to other people.  

Lux started connecting me with his hand on my back, as we walked through the humongous crowd. He stopped and said hi to few people, but none the less we made it to the door.  Before we left the door I made eye contact with Barack, who looked furious.  I gave him a reassuring smile, and mouthed 'I'll be okay.'   He gave me a small smile, and was about to mouth something back, till James came and hit him on the side of the head.  

I tried to jerk forward, letting my emotions get the best of me, but Lux had a firm hand on my back; pushing me out the door.

As soon as we were out the door, and looked around to make sure there was no one around. 

He still had my hand on my back, and speed walked us towards the room.  

"Are you trying to get yourself killed!"  He yelled whispered.

We then turned the corner, to the right. 

"I could ask you the same thing."  I yelled/whispered back, still looking down paranoid someone might see us.

We finally reached the room, and he basically shoved me in.

I lost my balance for a second, then turned around to look at him.  He closed the door,  then turned around to look at me.  His eyes were filled with fury and confusion.  

He put his hand in his hair, and looked at me wide eyed. 

"What the hell are you doing here."

"I could ask you the same thing!"  I said defensively.

"No, no, no, your are not avoiding my question." he replied, walking a few steps closer to me. "and what are you wearing?!"  He asked mortified.

I rolled my eyes, annoyed with his pestering.

"I'm on a mission obviously, and I don't want to be wearing this as much as you don't want to see it."  I stated.

"Then we are are simply going to call the order, because this mission is way to dangerous for you."  He fired back in a matter of face tone.

I was token back in shock.  Then I widen my eyes and laughed, "to dangerous.  And who are to decide what's dangerous and not dangerous for me.  Last time I checked, the last time we saw each other it was me who was saving you" 

"I told you I had a plan, that didn't need you.  It was you who got our cover blown." He said pointing his finger at me, and lightly pushing my shoulder.

" because you went off, and made friends with terrorists who burnt down a whole village.  Great friends Lux." 

His eyes then burned in fury, and he walked up so close to where our noses almost touched  "I was trying to get justice for my mother."

"Justice, and Revenge two very different things Lux, and for someone who's trying to get Justice for their mother it's very funny to see what side you're on now." I said pushing him back not liking how close we were.

"I was doing what was best for my people." He yelled.

"And that's what I'm doing now.  The information this man has, can turn the side of the war."  I said trying to make him understand.  

'Ha.  That was pretty good maybe I should've been a Senator.'

Lux opened his mouth to argue back, but the I put my hand up to his face focusing. 

I could sense someone coming.

"someones coming."  I said looking up at him.

Lux didn't hesitate he quickly unbuttoned his shirt, and threw it off.  I was confused for a second of what he was doing then I quickly caught on.  He then pushed me on to the bed and got on top of me.  

the door then started to open, and he quickly smashed his lips on mine.  

he brought me back memories of Mandlore, and when he called me his "betrothed".  

I fought of the urge not to push him off.  

Someone walked in and stared laughing.  

"Lux, James told me to come get you, he's about to make a toast.  Sorry to ruin your fun." A Neimoidian came in and smirked.  

Lux brought his lips off mine to look up at him.  "haha, thanks man I'll come right out."  

With that the man left. 

Once he closed the door, Lux looked back down at me.  He looked deep into my eyes for a few seconds, and I started to feel weird.

"Um Lux.  Are you going to get off of me?" 

Lux came out of his weird trans, and shook his head "yeah sorry."  he mumbled, and his face turned red.  

He quickly put on his shirt, then turned and looked at me, "we'll finish this conversation later."

'Sure we will.'
