Chapter 1
"Daddy!!!!" Yelled Luke, running down the halls, being chased by Leia.
The twins were each three years old right now. They were both Younglings, however, Luke wasn't completely potty trained. He was still having trouble... How can I say this? 'Aiming'.
For the past three years, I could hardly sleep at night. They were always wining or crying, or having nightmares so I had to go in there and put them back to sleep. I could never train properly the next day, and I was always stuck with the twins in the afternoon in Anakin's apartment, while Anakin was left with the Council. Being a part time 'mom' and a Padawan was harder than it had sounded.
Thanks Padmè, I thought, grunting, as I went down the hall to get Luke and Leia. Quietly, I ran down the hall as well, with a fake smile plastered on my face. I bent down and swooped up Luke, and held him in my arms.
"What did Leia do this time?" I asked, looking at the innocent face Leia was portraying.
"She hit me!" Luke claimed, pointing at his sister.
Leia's cheeks fumed, and she stomped her foot. "Did not!"
I rolled my eyes. "Leia, are you telling the truth?"
Her cheeks turned an even more red, and she nodded. "Yes."
I bent down, and put Luke on the floor. "No you aren't."
She grunted, and crossed her arms. "I hit Luke," she admitted.
I smiled, and hugged Leia. "Good girl. Doesn't it feel better to tell the truth?"
She smiled, and nodded faintly. "Yes, (Y/N)."
"If you wouldn't have told the truth, and I would have believed you, and I found out later that you weren't telling the truth... You would have gotten into trouble," I said, looking at both of the twins.
The twins looked at each other, and widened their eyes. They both knew what trouble meant. And they didn't like that word one bit.
"Now, Leia, say you're sorry, " I said, pointing at Luke.
She quickly hugged Luke, and muttered," I'm sorry I hit you... "
Luke smiled and quickly hugged his sister back. "It's okay!"
I laughed, and heard a knock on the door. I reluctantly got up, and went to the other side of the apartment, and leaned against the door.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"Mail!" Shouted the apparent mailman.
I opened the door, and found a Trandoshian mailman standing there, with a blue uniform on, holding a package.
"Anakin Skywalker?" He hissed, holding out the package to me.
"I'm his roommate," I said, taking the package. He nodded and handed me the big box, and a pad and stylist pen with to sign.
I signed my name onto the pad, and waved him off. He nodded, and I closed the metallic door.
I walked back to the dining room, and laid the big brown box onto the table.
Anakin never told me we'd be receiving a package today, I said, I thought, staring at the brown box.
Suddenly, I felt a slight tug on my boot. I looked down, and saw Luke sitting there, with his blue beady eyes, and his short,blond hair, covering his eyes.
"Where's Daddy?" He asked, looking up at me.
I shook my head. "He's not here right now," I admitted, picking him up, and setting him on my lap. I started to softly stroke his hair, and he quickly fell asleep in my arms.
I whispered into his ear,"You were always a hard little sleeper." I got up, and went to Luke's room, which he has shared with Leia. I set him in his little twin sized bed, and I tucked him in the covers, and I softly planted a kiss onto his forehead.
I went back to the living room, and I sat down onto the couch with Leia, where she was playing with her little dolls. I watched her play for a while, and I fell asleep.
••••••
Bang! I shot up from my sleep, and found Leia sleeping next to me, as she snuggled into my arms. I quietly removed Leia from my shoulder, and I replaced my spot with a pillow.
I got up, and went to the door from where I heard the noise, and I heard a stressed out groan.
I knew it was Anakin, but I asked who it was anyway. "Who is it?"
"It's me..." He groaned, obviously being very tired.
I rolled my eyes, and waves my hand in front of the door, using the Force to open it. Since Anakin was leaning his head against it, he fell to the floor, and stayed there.
"Having fun, Master?" I asked, sarcastically.
He shook his head, lifting it off the ground, to look up at me. "No."
I laughed, and helped him off the ground. He ran his fingers through his hair, and looked around the apartment, along with closing the door.
"How did it get so quiet in here?" He groaned, looking at Leia, who was softly sleeping on the couch.
I sighed, and looked around the apartment as well, looking for Luke's room. "Everyone's asleep."
He shrugged, and went to the couch to sit down with Leia, and he removed the dolls that were taking up the room. He leaned in to kiss her cheek, and he started to stroke her brown hair.
"Thank you," he yawned, stretching his arms around the back of the couch.
I smiled, and raised an eyebrow. "For what?"
"For taking care of them," he said, about to fall asleep.
I nodded, and instantly thought of Luke. He's been wanting to see his Dad all day.
I walked to his room, and patted him on his shoulder, waking him up. "Luke, your dad is here."
He yawned, and sat up, "I'm still tired. "
I laughed,"Yeah, you can go to sleep after you see your dad."
He reluctantly got out of bed, and walked down the hall to where the living room was. He instantly spotted his dad, and run up to him.
"Daddy!" He said, throwing his arms out, running to him.
Anakin perked up, and removed his arm from around the couch, and swooped Luke up from where he was running and held him in his arms. "Hey Sport! How's (Y/N) treating you?"
Luke looked at me with his enlightened eyes, and he started to wave at me. "She my Mommy."
I blushed, and looked down at the ground. Anakin chuckled, and lifted Luke's chin, both blue eyes staring into one another's. "Hey, you can call her whatever you want, as long as its not Padawan. I call her that," he said, touching Luke's head with his.
Luke laughed, and looked back at me. "Mommy!"
I looked back at Anakin, who winked at me, and looked back at his children. "I don't know about you guys, but I'm going to sleep," he said, putting Luke down.
"Can I go to sleep too?" Asked Luke, looking up at his father.
Anakin bent down, and ruffled his hair. "Sure, my little Jedi."
Luke smiled, and climbed onto the couch with his father, and Anakin sprawled out on the large couch, and Luke and Leia slept next to him, Leia snuggling up to his leg. I smiled, and decided to go to my own room, turning away from the little trio.
"Hey," yawned Anakin, wanting me to wait. "Where ya going?"
I looked back at my Master, who was covered up in his children. "I'm going back to my room. Why?"
He shrugged. "Just wondering why you wouldn't want to nap with the family."
I smiled, finally being accepted that I was part of the family. "I just thought that you didn't want me too."
He shook his head. "Hey, we're all family. Kind of. "
I laughed, and calmly went over to where the little Trio was, and I laid down next to Anakin, as he wrapped his arm around me.
"Thanks, again," he whispered into my ear. "For everything."
I nodded, "Of course. Anything for the little Trio here."
He shook his head, and laid back. "We're all one big family. Even though you're my Padawan."
I yawned, and nodded, drifting into a soft sleep.
