Summary: You and Obi-Wan Kenobi are to protect Duchess Satine of Mandalore. The plan was simple, you were to take her place and Obi-Wan was supposed to protect her in her quarters. But what happens when Obi-Wan stumbles into you thinking youโre Satine and admits his feelings for her to you?

โYou want me toโฆ What? Exactly?โ Master Yoda and Master Windu sighed. They knew this wasnโt a good idea.
โWe know the circumstances arenโt ideal, but youโre the only one capable of doing it. Youโre both the same height and have similar body types. All you have to do is lead the Alignment of Concordia, while Master Kenobi protects Duchess Satine in her chambers.โ You wrapped your arm around your torso and rested your elbow on your opposing wrist. You bit your thumb nail.
โDooku will do anything to get to Satine. He needs her to bait Maul into his ship so he can kill him, or worse.โ Obi-Wan explained.ย
โButโฆ How will they believe itโs Satine and not me? Satine isโฆ Sheโsโฆโ You couldnโt seem to finish your sentence. Obi-wan beside you probed your mind and found your self deprecating thoughts. He gripped his elbow tighter.ย
โThis you will use,โ Yoda held up a small choker.ย โChange you into Satine, it will.โ You rest your fist against your lips. You nodded.
โIโll do it. But,โ They leaned toward you and you blushed.ย โI donโt know a thing about Mandalore culture. Iโll need a refresher.โ You admitted. Obi-wan raised a finger and your attention was turned to him.
โI may be of help with that. I have extensive knowledge on Mandalore culture.โ You nodded and smiled. They dismissed him. Yoda walked up to you and gestured for you to bend down.ย
โWave of the hand will control this.โ You grabbed the choker from his small hands and nodded.ย โAnd Master,โ Mace added.ย โIf you get kidnapped by Dookuโฆ Donโt try to escape right away. Get as much information as you can. Local intel says heโs planning something big.โ You nodded and began to walk out.ย
โAndโฆ donโt let your feelings cloud your judgement. Mission over personal matter.โ He reminded you. You blushed and nodded, leaving the Masters.ย
Ah, yes. Your feelings. Youโve been in love with Obi-wan since you were Padawans. But ever since he was sent to protect Satine all those years ago, something changed. He changed. You shook your head. You didnโt have time to think about that now.ย
Three hours later, you boarded a ship. You sat in the pilotโs seat, setting course for Mandalore. Obi-Wan walked in and began to head toward the cockpit. He saw Satineโs figure and he nearly forgot how to breathe. You turned around and saw Obi-Wanโs starstruck face. You grinned as he walked closer.ย
โSatine?โ Your grin dropped and you laughed and empty laugh. You swiped your hand over your face, revealing you.ย โSorry to disappoint, itโs just me.โ You joked. Obi-Wanโs expression held steady as he approached you.
โDonโt be ridiculous.โ His comment felt empty. Obi-Wan then sat beside you and took out a notebook, ready to teach you about the Alignment of Concordia. You smiled.ย โReady?โย
After hours of Obi-Wan teaching you about the Alignment of Concordia and itโs importance, it led you here. โDooku and his men are planning to grab you as you walk off your platform. Itโs imperative you stay on that platform until I say you can go.โ Obi-Wan spoke into your ear. You spotted him from the window of the Duchessโ chambers and nodded slightly. The guard beside you nodded at you and you began to walk onto the floating platform before it began to float in front of hundreds of Mandalorians.
They all cheered for their leader as you smiled and approached the front of the platform. Your heart leapt out of your chest. How could politicians do this all the time? You felt like you were going through cardiac arrest. You looked back to Obi-Wan, but didnโt see his figure in the window. You looked at your feet disappointedly, but quickly recovered.
โPeople of Mandalore!โ You exclaimed. They all silenced.ย โThank you all for coming, for this momentous day comes only once every few years. With that being said, I hope youโre with your loved ones,โ You glanced at the window again, only to see it empty again.ย โOr theyโre close by.โ You looked down at the paper lantern in your hands and grinned.ย โSo please, write your insecurities, your bad moments, things you want to forget, and put them into your lanterns.โ Below, hundreds placed papers into their lanterns before pulling out their lighters.
โRelease those bad thoughts! Release them into the Moon of Concordia and Concordia himself will rid of them.โ In seconds, hundreds of paper lanterns burned into the atmosphere and the Mandalorians below cheered.ย
โNow, dance into the night! Explore new things! The alignment of concordia is day of new beginnings, taking risks!โ The crowd cheered and you smiled. You watched your lantern lift into the sky as the platform started moving back to the building. You foolishly stood on the platform, waiting for Obi-Wanโs signal. After 5 minutes passed you whispered.ย โObi-Wan? You there?โ After 5 more minutes of radio silence, you huffed and went into the building. Where the hell is Obi-Wan?
You and 4 guards ducked into a different hallway before a blaster went off and shot a guard, effectively shooting him to the ground. The guards pushed you behind them as they held up their blasters. Suddenly, their blasters were ripped from their hands. A shot went off and their eyes rolled to the back of their skull, the guards easily falling to their knees. You then caught sight of Cad Baneโs stupid hat. You huffed, of course Dooku would hire him. Behind you, someone shot a blaster, shooting you in the shoulder. You groaned in pain when you hit the ground.ย Your vision became spotty before he leaned down real close and whispered,ย โGood night.โย
โWake up!โ Obi-Wanโs familiar voice awoke you as he shook your shoulder.ย โObi?โ You slurred.ย โOh, thank Maker,โ Obi-Wan took you into his arms. You held him back with a sigh of relief. A pain in your shoulder flared and your groaned.ย
โIโm sorry, my love.โ You sobered at his nickname and widened your eyes.ย โโMy love?โโ You choked out. Obi-Wan took you by the shoulders and looked you deeply in the eyes.
โIโฆ Yes. Iโm in love with you. Iโve loved you since,โ Obi-Wan laughed and shook his head.ย โI honestly canโt remember a time when I wasnโt loving you.โ A bright smile etched into your face. โIโve loved you since I met you on that mission andโฆ and I-โ Your smile dropped. He wasnโt talking to you. Heโฆ He was talking about-
โSatine. Say something.โ Obi-Wan practically pleaded.
โObiโฆโ You swiped your hand over your face and revealed you.ย โSorry to disappoint. Good speech, though. Very believable.โ You whispered. Obi-Wan eyebrows knitted together.ย
โY/N? Butโฆ Satine-โ You cut him off.
โIsnโt here. Sheโs in the other cell. Here,โ You handed him a choker like yours.ย โGive this to her. Wave a hand over her face, sheโll transform into me and you both can escape.โ Tears sprang to Obi-Wanโs eyes.ย
โWhat? What about you? You have a blaster wound! We have to take you home. I have to take you homeโฆโ You placed a delicate hand on his shoulder.ย โIโll be fine Obi, just take Satine to the temple and Master Windu will tell the rest.โ Obi-Wan shook his head as tears fell from his blue eyes.
โIโm not leaving here without you.โ You smiled and caressed his cheek.ย โObi-Wan, you donโt have much time, and I donโt either. Please, go.โ You whispered. His tears fell onto your chest as he openly cried. What if he lost you? Your death would be his fault, this is his only chance to get you outโฆ
โObi, for once in your life, listen to me! I will be alright, I will see you within the week, okay? If not, Iโllโฆ Iโll bake you that cake you love so much, okay?โ You reassured him. Obi-Wan sighed. Here he is, a woman with a blaster-shot wound, and heโs the one crying.ย โIโll hold you up to that.โ Obi-Wan whispered. He kissed your forehead and laid you back down on the concrete floor of your cell.
You craned your neck up to watch him leave to Satineโs cell. You dropped your head back down to the cold floor, your headed bouncing with a thud. You hissed in pain, staring at the beige ceiling. You laughed at yourself.
You just got the confession of a man youโve loved for Maker knows how longโฆ And it wasnโt even for you.ย
The thought made your vision cloudy.
