15-I'm Sorry
(y/n)'s POV
Instead of waking up to the sound of my annoying comlink, it was to the sound of birds chirping and light talking from outside of the damaged ship.
"We leave as soon as she's awake." I heard him speaking to someone and I lifted my head to peer out of the holes in the wall to see an imperial ship with both Anakin and Piett standing outside of it. He was now dressed in his dark clothing with his hood up, looking like Vader again. Not the man that fell asleep crying in my arms.
"Yes my Lord." Piett saluted him before stepping onto the imp ship.
Watching him cry.. It was one of the most heart breaking things I ever had to witness, he cried like he had been holding it in for years.
Suddenly his eyes shot up and looked at the ship towards me and I could see the familiar yellow glow. I knew he couldn't see me but I'm sure he heard me.
I pulled away from the wall and stood up, I began to look around the room for my clothes. I found them dry and swung over the dashboard. I quickly got out of the rebels clothing and put my own comfortable ones back one.
They still felt slightly damp but nothing to cause me to feel uncomfortable. "Are you ready?" His voice came from behind me and I spun around to see him standing in the doorway.
"Uh yeah." I half smiled and looked away from his gaze. I wasn't sure what personality to expect right now. Was he gonna be sweet? Was he gonna pretend it never happened? Was he gonna be his usual attitude filled self?
I felt a hand under my chin and he lifted my head to look into his eyes, without a word he brought his head down and placed a kiss on my lips. He used the hand that was on my chin and brought it to my neck where he squeezed gently as he pulled me closer to him. He finally broke away from me and I was already beginning to miss the spell he put me under every time his lips touched mine, "Let's go." He spoke softly as he rubbed his thumb gently on my jawline before dropping his hand and turning around to leave.
I happily followed behind him out of the rebels ship and onto the imperialist one. "Good morning Miss (y/n)." Piett smiled at me and I was a little taken back, he's been extremely friendly lately.
"Uh good morning Captain Piett." I smiled back, I wonder why he's been so nice to me, he always waves when he sees me from afar, he almost always intervenes if another Captain is about to say something rude to me, and now this. And let's not forget the time they ran out of pudding in the cafeteria and he practically threw his at me so I could have it. That was a weird day.
I felt Anakin come behind me and he pressed his lips close to my ear, "Do you remember Captain Oldin?" He whispered into my ear and my body shivered at the feeling of his cold breathe.
The memory of the captain I had loathed came to mind. He had given me shit not too long ago over one of the droids I'd fixed and he called me a, and I quote, 'Stupid incompetent woman.' Luckily I haven't seen him in awhile, "Yes." I nodded.
"He's dead now." He admitted nonchalantly as he brushed my hair away from neck, "Thats why Piett is nice to you, he wants to stay in your good graces and doesn't want to end up like him." He pressed a kiss on my neck. Piett was facing the front of the ship so he wasn't seeing any of this.
"Oh." I responded breathlessly as I felt my body react to him being close to me again. What is wrong with me? He just told me he killed someone. Yet the only think I could think about was the way I feel about him. How good his lips felt on me.. I've fallen so hard, I don't know if there's anything I wouldn't look past for him.
"You have issues," He chuckled and walked away from me over towards the front of the ship where the Captain was punching in coordinates, "No." He spoke in his usual stern tone, "We're making a quick stop." He moved Piett out of the way and punched in something different.
After about an hour of being on this ship with these two, I was getting tired of the silence and I walked out of the cockpit and to the back of the ship where there was a cot so I could lay down. I closed my eyes, hoping to fall asleep so when I wake up we will already be there. I was never a fan of flying.
I felt a presence and I opened my eyes to see his eyes peering into mine, he smiled down at me, "Come, there's something I want you to see." He held his hand out for me which I accepted so he could pull me up to my feet. He kept his hand in mine as he led me back to the cockpit where Piett was but he was standing in the corner of the room.
Anakin shot him a glare, "Go away." He listened and hurried out of the room.
I don't get it what is he trying to show me?
He stood behind me and placed one hand on my hip and the other one pointed forward to the window of the front of the ship, "That." I followed where he was pointing and gasped at one of the prettiest sights I had ever seen. He wrapped his arms around my waist and placed his lips to my ear, "I heard your thoughts that you were tired of the boring stars, so I wanted to show you that space can be just as beautiful as nature, if you know the right place to go." (I put a picture on top of what I imagined it looked like but you can always picture it anyway you want.)
"Anakin it's so beautiful." I smiled as I kept my eyes on the shining stars all clustered together, some brighter than others with space clouds all around.
He spun me around quickly so I was facing him, "You're beautiful,"He brought his lips to mine and I instantly wrapped my arms around his neck to deepen the kiss.
My eyes shot open when I realized something and I pulled away from him, "Oh no we left my tools!"
"I'll get you new ones." He shrugged.
I shook my head, "No those can't be replaced, they were my dads." They were the only things of his that I had left and I can't believe I left them there. I wanted to cry.
"Don't cry," He rubbed my arm to soothe me, "I'll send someone for them." He assured me and I nodded. But I was still slightly worried that when they got there they would be gone, that someone would have found theml. He pulled away from me and dropped his hands, "Piett!" He shouted and the little man hurried back inside.
"Yes my lord." He stood up straight.
"Send someone to collect her tools from Kashyyyk, make sure they are found." He instructed and Piett nodded.
"Right away sir." He quickly walked to the communicator on the dashboard and I could hear him speaking to someone.
I took deep breaths, even if they weren't found, I needed to remember that they were just tools. That I shouldn't freak out over lumps of silver. But the fact that they were my dads and they're last thing I had of his since I lost everything else when my home was destroyed, I felt an attachment to them. He taught me everything I know with those exact tools.
I sighed and tried to think of something else, I looked up to the man that had my heart, "So, you never did tell me if you found what you were looking for on that ship."
His soft stare turned into a different, more serious one, "I found everything."
We finally arrived back at the Death Star and I walked off the ramp and the first thing I wanted was a shower and a different pair of clothes.
I was also nervous, now that we were back here, would things be different?
"Go to your room, I'll come by when I'm done." He instructed me in his now serious tone. I nodded to him and gave Piett a wave goodbye, which he gave one back.
I walked to my room, hoping to not run in to Adam. I may have forgot to cancel breakfast with him and I have no doubt he was going to be annoyed. Not only that, but he's going to ask a million questions about where I've been.
I reached my room and thankfully never saw him once. I took off my clothes and jumped in the shower, it felt so good to have the warm water touch my body.
Vader's POV
I reached my office and turned on my holotable to call Palpatine. I kneeled on the floor when he answered, "Ah Lord Vader, I have been expecting your call. Did you do as I asked?"
I looked up to him, "Yes Master, It was just as you expected. I've found the locations to several of their hidden bases."
He smiled his evil smile that always gave me a sick feeling, "Good Vader good. We must act quickly, these rebels are becoming a bit of a nuisance." He growled.
"Right away Master." I stood up and I watched him eye me curiously.
"Something is different about you," He tiled his head to the side, "Is there anything I should know?" I felt my heart stop, he can't know about her.
He just can't, he would kill her and make me watch.
I shook my head, "No Master, just a little tired from the trip."
He half smiled, "Very well my apprentice, make sure to launch attacks on all bases. I want you at every single one to ensure a victory. Keep me up to date."
I nodded to him, "I will not fail you."
"I know you won't." He hung up and his image disappeared. I let out a deep heavy breathe.
I was playing a dangerous game by allowing myself to get close to her.
All I knew is that she made me feels things Ive never felt and when I was around her, I felt happy. And happiness isn't something I've felt since.. the day before Ahsoka was accused of murder.
"Listen SkyGuy I know what I'm doing." She twirled her lightsabers in her hand and got in a stance ready to attack me.
I chuckled, "Alright show me what you got then." I stood straight up closed my eyes while putting one hand behind my back, "Here I'll make it easy for you."
I felt around in the force as she came towards me and jumped to the side and kicked the back of her leg causing her to fall to the floor, "Damn it!" She growled as she jumped back up to her feet.
"You were saying?" I smirked.
She put her sabers away and sighed, "One day I'm going to beat you, I'll even become a master before you do." She smirked knowing damn well the topic of being master irritates me since the council doesn't see me fit to be one.
"In your dreams snips, now come on we're not done." I stepped back waiting for her to get her weapons back out.
She whined at me, "But I'm hungry, can we finish later?"
I stood there for a moment, thinking, "Alright how about this, if you spar with me one more time and If I find it impressive enough, I'll buy you all the bantha biscuits you want." I smiled knowing those were her weakness.
Her eyes widened with excitement, "You're on!"
I punched the wall in my office with my mechanical arm, creating a dent.
I hate all of them. It was their fault she's gone. Their fault for everything. The lights in my room flickered before completely shattering.
"Is everything alright Lord Vader?" A mans voice filled the room and I turned around held my hand out to him. He was just a common worker that should know not to come in here without my permission.
"Who said you could come in here?" I growled as he struggled to breathe. I squeezed tighter causing his neck to snap and I threw him to the ground in a fit of rage.
All this anger, all this rage, what if I can't control it when I'm around (y/n)? What if I do hurt her? What if Palpatine finds out and kills her?
If I continue to allow myself to get close to her, it would be like signing her death warrant.
(y/n)'s POV
I sat on my bed and was eating a little snack as I waited for Anakin to show up. He was taking longer than I thought he would, it's already been a few hours. I sighed and set the food down on my table as I leaned my head back onto the pillow.
There was a knock on my door and I quickly jumped up to answer it and my face fell when I saw it wasn't him, but it was Piett. "Captain Piett, what are you doing here?"
He half smiled and handed me a piece of paper. I eyed him curiously before grabbing it and opening it to see small writing.
I'm sorry
I looked up to the Captain, "What does this mean?"
He shrugged, "I don't know, he told me to give it to you and then he left."
My eyes widened slightly, "What? He's gone?" I felt tears in my eyes.
He nodded, "Yes ma'am."
"Well, thank you." I responded sadly. He nodded one last time before turning to leave and I closed my door while letting out a broken whimper from my lips.
I knew it.. I should have known something like this would happen. Last night, today on the ship with the stars, all of it was too good to be true.
I sat on my floor and began to sob into my hands. Why does everyone always leave me?
