❝ After years and years of asking, and asking, and asking, I finally said yes. ❞ ani @ padme
She was happy. After ( countless ) near death experiences for solely being a senator, a high name figure in the Senate, after hiding in the safety of her home planet, she was happy. Because her home planet brought her peace, brought her security, and it brought her him. Had he not be assigned to protect her, had they not have had to reside in the safety of the fields of the planet at all, she may never would have fallen in love with him. She may never would have learned more about him, about the man he’d grown to be - about the Jedi he’d become. She was happy, and she was thrilled, that though kept secret, this was their life.
A joyous laugh passed Padmé’s lips, the fullest of smiles spreading across her face as she looked over toward him. “You really know how to make someone smile with all the joy in the world,” she mused as she threw another smile in his direction. She walked toward him, now that they were alone. Free to be as they were, free of eyes that would result in either the demise of their marriage or their jobs. Gentle hands rose to rest against his cheeks, and her smile softened. “I’ve missed you, Ani.”
