The First Gifts

Padme was flanked by two gorgeous women, first was Ahsoka and the other Barriss. Both where dressed in their usual Jedi attire. They where on the elevator heading towards Lux's apartment. She could tell Ahsoka was happy but Barriss was indifferent to say the least.

'Ahsoka's outfit was suited for what she wanted. A tight top with a cleavage window, an extremely short skirt and stockings. Why does the order allow Ahsoka to dress like that. She looks more like street walker from the lower levels, then a Jedi.' thought Padme.

Then she took a glance at Barriss. She was wearing her usual long black Jedi robes. They cover her completely and didn't nothing to show off her body.

'I'm curious, what does Barriss looked like underneath those robes. She couldn't be that unattractive. The Order at least kept their Jedi great shape.' Thought Padme.

The elevator stopped, the three girls left the elevator. It was a short walk to the apartment. Padme ranged the door bell. After couple minutes someone answer through the inter com.

"Who is it ?" Asked Lux.

Padme smiled, "It's me Lux, aunty Padme. I brought you a pair of nice gifts." Said Padme, smirking.

Ahsoka giggled a little, Barriss just huffed.

"Thanks." Said Lux, in a surprise and awkward tone. The door slid opened and the girls entered.

Lux was shocked to see Ahsoka of all people. He glad, as he was getting extremely lonely. Then he looked at the other girls. He didn't know her but guessed she might be Ahsoka's friend Barriss. He remembered Ahsoka talking about her.

"Have you been eating and sleeping ?" Asked Padme, as she pulled Lux into a hug.

He felt awkward but quickly returned the hug.

"Eating sure, sleeping." Said Lux, followed by a sigh. Padme looked him over and noticed the dark circles under his eyes.

"I know it's hard, I miss Mina too." Said Padme, giving him a warm and motherly smile.

Lux smiled back, "Thanks, you been very helpful." Said Lux, giving her another hug.

"Anyway, like I said. I brought you a pair of gifts." Said Padme, smiling. She then pointed to both Ahsoka and Barriss. Lux looked at her with a puzzling stare.

"They're your bodyguards." Said Padme, smiling.

"Really, you got me two Jedi bodyguards ?" Asked Lux, as this made him a little worried.

"Dooku is still after you, so I got the best bodyguards in the galaxy." Said Padme, smiling.

Lux let out a small laugh, "Thanks." Said Lux, smiling. He was glad Ahsoka was here, at least he now had a friendly face to talk to.

"Don't worry Lux, Dooku cronies won't dare come around while I'm here." Said Ahsoka, smiling. Lux smiled back. He looked at the other girl.

"Barriss Offee." Said Barriss, in a cold but polite manor. Lux smiled and waved but Barriss just looked at him. Ahsoka sighed.

"Anyway, I have to get going. If you need anything just call." Said Padme, smiling. Then she gave Lux a hug.

Then she left the apartment.
