We arrived at Coruscant a few hours ago, gave all the information we received to the council, and parted to our own separate quarters. All without speaking a word to each other and I had no idea why. When we were dancing, we talked, we laughed, we smiled. Then it all just changed and he's practically throwing me out of the cockpit to avoid being in the same room as me.

I sat on my bed and brought my knees to my chest as I hugged them. I was so confused. And force if I can't stop thinking about that kiss he gave me. I had never felt anything like that before and all I know is that I wanted more. But I couldn't have more, it wasn't like that for him, he hates me and I don't understand why.

"Psstt." My head shot up to the sound. No please not this again. I reached my hand over and pinched my arm, wincing at the pain. Well I'm not sleeping, "Psstt." I heard it again, coming from my closet. I swear if those clones are playing a joke on me, I'm killing them.

I stepped off of my bed and walked to my closet, "Whoever is in there is about to get a swift kick in the balls." I growled as I opened the door to only find it empty. I closed it with a confused look, I know that's where it was coming from. I sighed, I wasn't going to be able to sleep at all in here. In all my five years of having this room, I have never once had an issue like this. When I'm with Anakin, nothing like this happens, well except that one night but I'm not even sure if that really happened or if I was just tired. I groaned at myself, I'm so sick of using the 'I'm tired' excuse.

I turned to leave my room and stood in front of Anakin's door. I was hesitant. I lifted my hand to knock, then put it down, I did it again, then put it down. I sighed in annoyance at myself for being such a chicken shit. I was about to give up and turn away when the door opened and he leaned in the doorway, "I've been watching your shadow for the past two minutes, what are you doing?" He asked as he crossed his arms.

I shook my head as I sighed, "It's nothing, I'm sorry." I turned to leave but he gripped my arm and spun me back around to face him.

"What's on your mind Princess?" He asked as he stared down at me.

Maybe I should just suck it up and ask what I've been wanting to, "What the hell was all that today?" I asked and he tilted his head in curiosity, "One second you're dancing with me, then you're kissing me, then you're throwing me out of the cockpit and ignoring me. Why?"

He snorted, "I danced with you and kissed you for the mission, I thought that was obvious." He snapped as he glared at me with an annoyed expression,

"So that's it; just for the mission?" I asked slightly hurt, I was really hoping it was more. He nodded to me in response. I looked away from him to hide the sadness I was feeling, "Right, well sorry to bug you then, Goodnight Skywalker." I turned away from him and went back to my room.

I completely forgot about what happened with the closet and sat on my bed as I softly cried. A part of me had hoped that the kiss meant something to him, it sure as hell meant something to me. I was so stupid to think otherwise. Things were much simpler when I just hated him. "Don't cry my dear." I snapped my head up to the soft voice, but no one was here in my view. I grabbed a tissue and wiped my eyes as I got up to take a look. I had to look around to feel safe, since apparently I'll be staying in here tonight. I'll be damned if I go over there to him again.

"Hello?" I asked as I turned my bathroom light on to find it empty, so I walked out and closed the door behind me. I went to my bed to sleep for the night and, thankfully, nothing else happened. Although I did miss the comfort of having someone next to me.

2 days later

"Back off already!" I shouted over the holotable at Anakin who was trying to steal a mission from me.

He growled, "You had Felucia!"

I rolled my eyes while crossing my arms over my chest; I was five seconds away from resorting to violence, "If I remember correctly, you took that over and killed General Kalani."

He dry laughed, "Yeah that's because your dumbass decided to almost die."

The other Jedi in the room, including our Masters, were currently watching our interaction. Their heads changing direction on who was currently speaking.

I slammed my hands on the table, "You think just because you're Anakin Skywalker that you get to have whatever the hell you want. Well sorry you arrogant ass but this mission is mine!" Our anger with each other might be heightened due to recent events. It's been two days and this is pretty much the first time we've spoken since then.

He was about to walk over the table to me when Master Windu stopped him, "Enough, we have already decided who's getting the mission." He sighed at our childishness.

"Who?" We both asked simultaneously and we each shot each other a glare.

"(y/n) it is." My master spoke.

I looked back to Anakin who held and irritable scowl, "Sorry not sorry." I smirked.

You entitled ass.

He huffed and left the room, Obi-Wan shook his head at his former padawan, but stayed in here with the rest of us. They gave me the details, I was to take my battalion and assist General Mundi who was currently in the middle of a space battle with the separatists, right above Geonosis.

Finally, some action, the boys are going to be so happy. They dismissed me and I left the room to get my squad ready. We had to leave in less than an hour. To my annoyance, just outside of the briefing room, was Anakin, "Waiting for me or something?" I snapped as I walked past him.

He snorted, "Yes actually, I just wanted to tell you not to do anything stupid. I already told you once before, if you get caught, I won't come for you."

I rolled my eyes, "You didn't need to wait for me to tell me that. I already knew." I smiled sarcastically, "Besides if I ever was to get caught, your face is the last I'd want to see, I'd much rather see Master Windu." I snapped as I started walking faster to get away from him.

He huffed as he quickened his pace with me, "I really do hate you."

My chest tightened and I pushed him up against a wall, "I know, you don't have to keep reminding me." I growled and I could feel myself wanting to cry. I quickly turned and walked away from him before he noticed how upset he actually made me.

~*~•~*~

"Alright boys," I spoke through my headset while flying my purple starfighter near the separatist fleet, "Let's do this quick, I have a pudding cup and a bed with my name on it."

"Yes General."

"Let's give these seps something to cry about."

"Now I'm hungry."

I chuckled at Jimmy's response, "Oh Jimmy you always have food on your mind." I directed my fighter down and fired at the separatist cruiser. A shot was sent my way and I pulled myself up so it would miss me, "I really hate flying." I sighed as I turned to the left.

"It's not that bad General." I heard Max over my head set, "Besides didn't you steal this mission from General Skywalker?"

I narrowed my eyes even though he couldn't see me, "No I didn't steal it and how would you even know that?" These clones lately have been knowing everything, they truly do have eyes everywhere. Besides, I didn't know this was a flying mission when I fought for it, I just wanted it because I know Anakin did.

Petty, I know.

"General on your right!" I heard Edge yell over my set and I looked to see a blast headed for me. I pulled my fighter to my left and went back towards the cruiser.

"Thanks Edge. Alright men, give it everything you got. Mundi and the republic fleet are already too damaged to take anymore hits." I pushed my fighter down towards the cruiser and shot out a few of their ray guns.

"Uh what are those?" Jimmy came in through my set and I looked around to see small robotic creatures coming towards us.

I sighed heavily, "Buzz droids, don't let them get to you men, they'll tear your ship apart." I informed them as I pulled myself up to avoid them. I aimed my fighter down and shot at the robots, causing tiny explosion whenever I got one.

"One is on me!" Dax shouted and I quickly flew to him.

"Don't move too much." I instructed him and aimed at the small droid that was creeping its way up his fighter. I fired one shot and knocked it off. I smiled at my victory, "What would you boys do without me." I chuckled as I flew away.

"Die." Jimmy responded bluntly causing all of us to laugh.

"Thanks for the save General." Dax spoke in between his laughs.

We all got into formation and fired shots all around the cruiser, fire and explosions erupted when we saw it finally going down. I could hear cheers through the headset from my men, "Nice job boys." I pulled my fighter up and watched as the cruiser continued falling apart.

"General what the hell is that?"

Before I could respond, a shadow had crept over me and I looked up to see another cruiser. But much bigger and it definitely wasn't ours, "Oh shit." Was all I could say.

"General (y/l/n) I presume." I heard a robotic voice in my head set and instantly knew who it was. I felt my ship get caught in his ray shield, "Count Dooku said you would be here." How the hell did Dooku know I would be here?

I saw my men try and come to my rescue, "Stop!" I instructed them, "I'm caught in a ray shield, if you come any closer then you'll be caught too and you can't help me that way." I knew they could hear me because they stopped, but for some reason, I couldn't hear them. Like my communications was being hacked, "Get out of here. Now. This ship will destroy you." I saw that they weren't moving and I know it's because they didn't want to leave me, I sighed, "That is an order troops." I watched as they finally listened and turned their fighters away from me.

I then felt myself being pulled into the big ship, "Welcome aboard the Malevolence General."

Damn it Skywalker, he fucking jinxed it.
