First Choice. Anakin Skywalker x reader

Chapter 2

We have been on Naboo for about five hours now. Padmé has shown us around and we've got to see all the beautiful places she's been talking about.

"Y/n, we need to talk" I hear Anakin say from the other side of the room. He is looking so proud, but doesn't he always. "What's wrong?" I say and stand up so I can look at him while talking. "Just us, my room?" I turn over to Padmé's direction, she laughs and give me a weird look.

I walk in to the room. It's already messy and we came here just a couple of hours ago.

"I don't really know how to explain this" Anakin says but stops to look at me. "I like you, before you say anything, I know it's against the Jedi code." I cough and look him in the eyes. "I like you too, but the council, they can't find out about this" he turns his head down and walks over to a window. "We'll make it work, won't we?" He says as he looks over to my direction. I shake my head "Not now Anakin, it's not the right time" I can feel my heart fall in to a thousand pieces inside my chest.

I sit down on his bed and feel the silky duvet under my fingers, why would I have to be so stupid? I really want to be with him, there's lying I want more than that, but the Council and Padmé.

He sits down beside me and puts his arm around me. "I'm sorry, I just needed to tell you" why would he feel sorry? I told him I liked him too. "Don't be, I like you but this just isn't the time, when Padmé Is safe we'll talk about it again" I can feel a little warmth inside of Anakin. He was happy, I could feel it. "Anakin?" I say and look over to him again. "Yes y/n" he says and stands up. "Maybe  we could work it out, but remember, we need Padmé to be our first choice, at least until she's safe." He looks down at me and his eyes light up. He smiles and takes grip of my shoulders "Yes, we'll make it work." He takes me in for a hug and I feel a comfort I don't think I've ever felt before.

I don't think I've ever been this happy, my belly is filled up with butterflies. I can't believe I am actually dating the guy I've been in love with for seven years. "Seven years huh? That's a long time" I push him away from me and give him a kiss on his cheek as I start walking away. "You need to stop reading my mind all the time" I say and laugh. "I'm not reading your mind, it's something about you that I don't understand" I stop and turn around "you've noticed it too?" I say but more serious this time. He nods and looks me deep in the eyes. "I think we really connected through the force somehow" I clear my throat as I walk back to him. "I can feel when you're in pain" he says and stands up.

He could what? That's crazy.

I walk out of his room to find Padmé in the living room area with Artoo and Threepio. She turns her head and smiles at me. I smile back knowing exactly what she meant with that look. I walk over to my room and take of my Jedi robes, I put on a nightgown, it's not luxurious at all but it works. I also take out my hair and brush it. Then I go to bed.

~This part is a dream~

Anakin is lying on the ground next to me, he is missing half an arm, I hear footsteps approaching us from behind. My lightsaber is lying next to me, ready to be used any second. The anger inside of me is not possible to handle, I just want to hurt the person who did this to him. I turn around to see Count Dooku standing behind me with his lightsabers facing my head. I stand up and push mine through his stomach. He falls to the ground and his last breath comes out of his mouth.

~Not the dream anymore~

I open my eyes and I can feel the sweat falling down on my forehead, it's almost impossible to take deep breath's. I hear footsteps coming closer to my room and the door shuts open. In the doorway Anakin stands in his nightwear. I look at him with confusion. He looks at me and I can see the panic in his eyes.

"What happened? What's wrong" I manage to say. "You, you we're having a nightmare" how did he know that? "Yeah, how did you know?" I say and sit up with my legs hanging of the bed. I put my hand beside me as a gesture to show him to sit down. He walks up to me and sits down. "I felt it. I can feel that you're in pain, remember?" He says and puts his arms around me. I pull him closer and hold him as tight as possible.

I give him a kiss on his cheek, he smiles and gives me one on my nose.

"I also have nightmares, but I'm pretty sure they are true." I pull away from the hug and looks him in the eyes, "Wait what? Why would you think that?" I say and takes his hand In mine. "I don't know, but I've had the same dream for over a week now." I think we two have more in common than we know of. "Me too" I say and lay down on the bed, he does the same thing and now our faces are only inches from each other. Our lips touch and I can feel a spark going through my whole body. He's probably the best kisser in the whole galaxy.

Anakin sits up after a while. "I should probably go back to my room" he says and plays with my hair. He stands up and starts to walk out of the room. "Please, could you stay? Just tonight." He turns around and a smile appears on his lips. "Of course" he says and laughs.

He lies down next to me. I don't want to make it weird but I wish he could hold me through the night. He rolls over to my side of the bed and pulls me closer. The comfort I feel when I'm with him is unexplainable. I wish we could stay like this forever.

"Good night." He says in to my neck, it tickles a little bit. I turn direction and smile. "Good Night."
