![]() But after ten years, he had run out of stories. He usually just told them an old space pilot story that he heard when he was younger. Once upon a time." he thought for a moment. He rolled his eyes and sat down on Leia's bed. Luke and Leia smiled sweetly up at their father. Anakin groaned, "But what about our aggres-" Padme put a finger to his lips, " After."Īnakin sighed as Padme left him in the bedroom. Padme looked up at her husband, "You've been requested." she motioned toward the beds. ![]() Padme sighed, "Okay, which one?" Luke shook his head, "We want a new one!" Leia smirked, "From Daddy," she added. Sweet dreams."Īnakin bent down and gave both of his children a squeeze, "I love you both, good night."īefore they turned to leave, Luke and Leia interupted, "Wait! Bedtime story!" they both cried. Padme hugged them both tightly and kissed the tops of their heads, "Goodnight my little Jedi Knights. M'lady."īy the time Padme and Anakin got upstairs, Luke and Leia were sitting in their beds awaiting hugs and kisses. Padme blushed a little, "Well maybe we can have a little aggressive negotiations after we tuck the kids in." Anakin grinned, "Anything you want. Anakin turned her toward him and gave her a kiss, "I prefer aggressive negotiations." you should try them sometime," she replied with a smirk. Padme layed her head on his shoulder, "I call them diplomatic solutions. Anakin leaned against the balastrade, "Sometimes I swear you have Jedi powers too," He joked. Now you two better be in bed when I get upstairs. They waved their hands in front of them slowly, "Five more minutes." Padme laughed, "Its gonna take a lot more than Jedi mind tricks to fool me. Luke and Leia groaned, "Five more minutes!" they begged. Padme smiled warmly at them, "Now, we better get ready for bedtime." Skywalker had not served in politics in a long time, her senator voice still had an effect on her children. And Luke, your sister has a right to privacy, so this better come to an end." Although Mrs. "Thank you, now Leia, if I hear that dirty language again, you're gonna be in trouble. Sorry guys, you're busted." he said to his son and daughter. What I was going to say was before you." he attempted to come up with an excuse but gave up. Anakin froze as Padme strode onto the terrace. "Before their mother what?" a voice asked. Anakin smiled, "Alright, now let's calm down before your mother-" Got it?" Leia batted her eye lashes, "Yes Daddy!" she peeped. ![]() I don't want to hear you calling anyone a Nerf Herder. "Yeah, about that." Leia put her hands on her hips, "Stay out of my mind Luke!" she demanded.Īnakin bent down to talk to Leia, "Its okay Princess, Luke won't do it again," he turned back to his son, " Right, Luke?" Luke nodded, "Yes Sir."Īnakin returned to the bitter Leia, "Now, you need to work on keeping your temper Young Lady. Luke put on an innocent smile, "Something wrong Leia?" Leia scowled, "Don't act like you weren't trying to read my mind again, you Nerf Herder!"Īnakin stood between them, "Again?" he asked, glaring at Luke. Luke suddenly jumped, "I think we're about to find out!" In a few seconds, Leia came storming down the stairs out onto the terrace. What would your sister say if she found out?" Luke lowered his head shamefully, "Sorry Father." But Anakin just patted Luke's shoulder, "Its alright Luke, just make sure this doesn't continue. However, you shouldn't be snooping in on your sister. Anakin's mind spun a little, "You continue to amaze me Luke. But when Leia writes in her diary, I can read her thoughts." he grinned proudly at his explanation. You just think about the person and you can tell what they're thinking. Luke nodded and smiled, "Yep, it's pretty wizard! Its just like when we talk to each other through the Force. Anakin ruffled his son's hair, "You can read her journal using your mind?" he asked curiously. Luke squirmed a little, "Alright, I'm trying to read Leia's journal," he finally admitted. you wouldn't lie to your father now would you?" Luke shrugged, "Nothing Dad." Anakin kept his piercing blue eyes locked on his son's. He could sense that Luke was hiding something, "What's going on?" he questioned. Its not like you to spend extra time meditating." Luke opened one eye to see his father studying him suspiciously, "Well, I." Anakin crossed his arms, " Luke." Anakin raised his eye brows, "We had meditation time this morning. "What are you doing?" he asked Luke, who was sitting on a rock with his eyes closed. Anakin smiled every time he looked at them. Luke and Leia never stopped making their father proud.
