A Familiar Face

“Look who I have to save again,” The voice came from behind her.

Padme recognized the voice instantly and turned around to give her husband a hug. Anakin returned the favor and hugged her back. After a while, she let go and faced him.

“We’d better head back to the ship,” Anakin suggested.

Padme saw that Anakin kept her close by and had his lightsaber in his hand, raising it every time someone gave her a look. They walked through Mos Eisley and back to a Republic Gunship that landed on the outskirts of the town.

“Why’re you here, I thought you hated sand?” Padme asked him.

“Someone had to come get you.” Anakin replied.

“How’d you even know I was here?”

“A clone distress signal reached my ship just before they were destroyed and they mentioned you were here. So I had to come,” He explained.

As they boarded the gunship she noticed the clones looking around nervously, even Captain Rex.

“Hey, Rex!” Padme greeted him.

“Senator,” Rex said.

As the ship ascended to the Venator in orbit, Anakin managed to get another feel of Padme’s ass.

“You should dress like this more often,” He whispered in her ear.

“Very funny, Ani.” In the back of her head, she knew she enjoyed doing this with him.
