Krell's Ex Padawan

Chapter 7

Eve's POV:

"Ok, ok. I know this is incredible but we have guests who have been assigned to take us back to Courosaunt." I said signaling them to get off of me.

"Who?" One of the shines, I think his name was Suite, asked.

"Masters Skywalker and Kenobi, along with Padawan Tano." I said keeping my voice from showing how happy I was talking about Ahsoka.

Gram offered me his hand and he helped me up. I brushed the dust off myself and nodded in thanks.

"Why did they send that many? Couldn't they have just sent a transmission?" Lieutenant Mully asks.

"I don't know." I was lying through my teeth.
I knew the Jedi were running extremely low. I knew what came next but I didn't want to get their hopes up.

Gram knew that I was lying and I sensed he felt confused and maybe hurt.

I felt a twinge if guilt but shook it off. He was my best friend. I should tell him. Later.

"Alright everyone! To your stations! Suite, tell the pilots to set course to Courasant! If you don't have anything to do you can keep celebrating." I said turning on my heel.

I felt Gram follow me out.

I quickly turned towards my quarters hoping he would leave. I didn't know if I could tell anyone my suspicions yet.

"I know what your doing Eve."

"No you don't." I said playfully.

"Yes I do. You know something. Something good."

I pouted.

"Why are you so good at this?" I ask typing my passcode in the door to my quarters.

"Because I know you now tell me!"

"Or what? In case you forgot I outrank you Captain" I said playfully.

I plopped down on my bed and leaned my head against the wall.

He didn't say anything for a while. Than he sat down on the edge of my bed.

"You don't have to tell me now. But know I'm here if you need to tell someone."

"I know. I just- I don't want to get your hopes up."

"So it is good news." He said mischievously.

I frowned.

"Darn it."

He looked at me a big smile on his face.

"Come on. We still have something to celebrate."

"Fiiinnnneee." I said scooting forward.

Gram was already up and he offered me his hand.

I took it and he pulled me up.

"Sooo you wanna tell me yet?" He said jokingly.

I groaned and put my head on his chest.

He froze up for almost a good twenty seconds and than gave me an awkward hug.

"L-lets get going Eve." He said quickly after the hug.

"Where too? Master Kenobi doesn't trust me near the other Jedi. And everyone else is probably working or drunk off their minds."

"W-well you should still stay with the Jedi then."

"Fine."

"Good"

"But your coming with me"

"Alright fine."

I finally lifted my head off his chest.

He was standing stiffly and the way he was standing was clearly uncomfortable.

I noticed he was feeling uncertain but happy.

I've seen him act stranger but this was still strange.

Oh well.

"Let's get going."

Two updates in a day! I'm proud of myself! I still need to remember to update this. Thanks for reading. Love all of you!
