Just a little bit ;)

When Anakin came back with the food, he sat it down on the small table in the kitchen. "Here's your food," he handed me a box, "and here's mine." He placed his box in front of him, practically drooling. I laughed to myself the way he looked at his food, it was cute. 

We began to eat and I moaned, "This is delicious." He smirked, "You just love to moan today." I could feel my face turn red. He did not just say that. Anakin chuckled when he saw I was embarrassed.

Deciding to get back at him, I tightened my hand from under the table once he took a bite of bread. Realizing what's happening, he held his neck.

Letting go, I acted like I was innocent. "Are you okay, General?" I asked in a concerned voice. "That was low." He spoke, giving me a playful childish pout. Smiling at each other, we went back to our food.

Continuing to eat, I asked once I swallowed my food, "What do you think your regiment will be like?" Anakin replied, "Well, they're called the 501st so they sound badass. The clones themselves though, they're loyal which is key. I've already met a few of them and they seem strong. I can't wait to fight with them."

"Are you excited, General?" Anakin grinned, "Very. I'm gonna have my own military unit. How awesome is that?"

"It's very awesome Anakin." I laughed at his cuteness. 

"I'm sure you'll get promoted to a General soon. Obi Wan told me that they need more Generals. More Jedi for that matter." My face lowered as I finished my food, "Oh." I got up from my chair and threw my box of empty food away. "What? You don't want your own regiment?" Anakin questioned.

"It's not that. I just don't want to fight in a war." Anakin got up and threw his empty box away. "I don't either, but it's what we have to do to protect the Republic, to keep the peace." I sighed, "I know. You're right." 

We walked back to my room and laid on the bed. Adjusting myself into his side, I noted, "You smell nice." He looked down at me with an eyebrow raised, "That was unexpected." I said. "I'm just stating the obvious." Anakin's scent smelled of musk and amber, giving a dark essence to him.

Anakin placed his finger under my chin and lifted my head to his. "I love you." Grinning, I replied, "I love you too." He pressed his lips against mine gently. We wrapped our arms around each other's waist prior to adjusting on our backs, staring at the ceiling in a comfortable silence. It was peaceful, the most peace I've gotten this past month. Sure enough, it came to an end when Anakin's com link went off.

Seeing who it was, he tilted his head to me, "It's Obi Wan. I'll be right back." Getting up, he walked to the bathroom and closing the door. A few minutes went by and Anakin came out. "What'd he want?" I asked. "Just to tell me.." he looked around and avoided eye contact, "where to meet my regiment."

He felt nervous.

"Are you sure that's what he told you?" I was suspicious as to why he was nervous. "Yup." He said. "Positive?" Getting up from my bed he replied, "Mhm."  Standing in front of him, I put my hand on his chest, "100 percent?" Trailing my hand down, feeling his sculpted stomach, I slowly progressed my hand to his crotch. Tensed, he questioned keeping eye contact with me, "What are you doing, y/n."

"A hundred percent?" I asked again, grabbing it through his pants. What just came over me to do this? 

His breathing hitched. He kept the intense stare, towering over me. He smirked down at me. "Are you sure that's what Obi Wan told you?" I moved my hand up to his waist band, trailing my hand over his defined V-line. I had goosebumps with how intimate this was. This was a very new experience. 

Dipping my hand into his pants, I ran my finger tips along the outline of his hardening erection. His smirk only grew, making me realize. He enjoyed this. He chuckled, gripping my wrist and pulling it out of his pants. We stayed staring at each other, waiting for the other person to break. I noticed how different his eyes were. They were darker, dimmed by lust. 

"The council wants me to keep an eye on you to make sure you don't do anything." He finally spoke. Stepping away, I was confused, "What? I don't need a babysitter. Why do they think I'm gonna do?" Anakin took in a deep breath, looking down at his erection. "I'm sorry, y/n. I don't know why they ordered this. They're just worried about you."

Sitting on the bed with my face in my hands, I felt angry at the council. Why would they do this?

Anakin sat down next to me, rubbing my back lightly. "I'm sorry." I motioned down to his pants. "It's okay. It was smart." He chuckled. "Let it out." He was right. I needed to yell, scream even. But I was mindful of where I was. If anyone heard me scream, they'd barge in thinking I got killed or something.

Shooting up from the bed and letting go of his hand, I huffed, "This is embarrassing and not to mention, they think I'm untrustworthy! How dumb is that? I'm a Knight, not a child! I don't need a babysitter!" I shouted while walking around the room.

"Y/n. They're just worried for you. Don't take it personal." Anakin reassured me in a calming tone. I took in a breath, "You're probably right." He raised an eyebrow, "Probably? I'm always right." I laughed and sat back on the bed with him.

"What you did earlier was not fun." He said with a pouty expression. Smiling, I responded, "I had to get you to talk somehow." Laying my head on his shoulder, he laid his head on mine, "You're smart, that's for sure."
