31-Remember

(TW: Blood)

(y/n)'s POV
"Okay, keep this on and call me if you have any trouble." Anakin placed a comlink over my wrist for me.

I nodded as I fixed it slightly, "Same for you," I turned and walked towards the door to leave, he followed closely behind me, "Stay outside the door like you're guarding it and let me know if you see him going towards downstairs. I'll call you once I have the data downloaded and we can get out of here." Thank god, I can't stand this place. I mean it's beautiful and I would love to live in a place like this, but you know, without Clovis being here. He ruins the vibe.

He opened the door for me and we both stepped into the hallway, "Sounds good, now go get em tiger." He slapped me on the butt as I walked away and I paused to shoot him a glare. He smirked as he placed his helmet over his head.

I sighed at his immature nature and turned around to get on with the plan. It was the middle of the night so no doubt he was sleeping right now. Well hopefully he is.

I made my way quietly down the stairs while avoiding any late night staff, there were hardly any, so it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be.

I made my way to the familiar room and slipped in secretly. I breathed out a sigh of relief for getting here unseen and walked up to the table. I pushed the drive in and began downloading everything I could find. I didn't have time to look through any of it, I was too afraid of being caught, so I just went ahead and got everything. I'll let the council shift through it and pick out what's important, "I knew there was something fishy about you." I jumped and spun around to be met with Viceroy Gunray, funny use of the word fishy since he looks like a damn frog.

I swallowed nervously, this isn't good, "I-"

He held a blaster up to me, "Don't bother making up a lie," He snapped in his annoying voice, "Clovis might be fooled by anything with breasts, but I don't fool so easily. I knew you were listening in on our conversation." He stepped closer to me while keeping the blaster raised.

I heard a low beep from behind me that indicated that the download was complete. I kept my eyes on him and slowly reached behind me to grab it without him noticing.

"Is everything going okay?" My comlink went off and Anakins voice filled the room.

"Tell him everything is fine." He demanded and I nodded while slowly bringing my com up to my mouth.

I sighed, he better get the hint, "Yeah Skywalker everything is fine." I never call him by his last name anymore; Only babe, Ani, Anakin, or big boy.. in certain situations.

He didn't respond so I'm hoping he got it and is currently on his way, "Skywalker?" Viceroy spoke with surprise, "As in.." He trailed off and his eyes widened slightly. Of course he would have heard the name of one of the most feared Jedi in the order. He stepped forward; keeping the blaster aimed right at my head. He gripped my shoulder and stood behind me while he pressed the cold metal to my temple, "If it's who I think it is, I know you found a way to warn him." I rolled my eyes at this inconvenience.

And just on cue, the door burst open with a worried looking Anakin; whose expression changed into one of anger when he saw the situation I was in, "Drop the weapon Viceroy." Anakin demanded him as he took a step forward.

"Don't move any closer," Viceroy threatened with a shaky voice, pressing the metal even harder into my temple; causing me to wince at the slight pain, "Just give me whatever it is that you've taken and I won't kill her."

I clenched my hand around the drive, I'll be damned if I give him this. I didn't suffer through two evenings with Clovis and have to taste his disgusting mouth, for nothing. I shot my head back and hit him right on his toad like mouth. And before he could shoot, I used my free hand to grip his arm and push it up; so the blast shot to the side of the room. I elbowed him in his stomach and spun around to kick him while I pulled the blaster from his grip, "I am not some damsel in distress Viceroy." I shook my head as I set the gun to stun and shot him before he could get back up.

I sighed victoriously as I threw the gun to the side and I turned to see my fiancé smiling at me with pride, "You didn't even need me did you?" He chuckled as I tossed the drive over to him and he caught it; placing it in his pocket.

I nodded, "Of course I did," I walked over to him and placed a hand on his cheek to stroke it softly, "You make a wonderful distraction." I winked as I tapped on his cheek and pulled on him so we could get the hell out of here in case anyone heard the commotion.

We rushed out of the door with our fingers interlocked, "Hey!" We heard a man shout with authority.

"Nope not this way," Anakin yanked me in another direction, I felt like I was being pulled around like a rag doll. We turned down a different corridor that was empty, for now. Anakin removed his hand from mine and opened the nearest window, "After you." He gestured to the now open window with a smile.

I could hear footsteps approaching so I quickly went through to the outside world and Anakin was right behind me. We ran along the grass and my heels were burning from these annoying shoes that I was wearing, but I knew I couldn't stop running, "These damn shoes." I complained out of breath.

"I got you." He gripped my arm to stop my movements and quickly picked me up bridal style so he could continue running with me in his hold. I truly admire his strength and lung power. I glanced over his shoulder to see us being chased by a few of Clovis' guards. I reached my hand out and force pushed them so they all flew back and hit the ground. "That's my girl." Anakin chuckled as we made our way off of this property and to our ship so we can finally go home.

~*~•~*~

"Very well you did. Proud of you both I am." Master Yoda smiled up at us as Anakin placed the drive in his small hand.

I nodded with a relieved smile, I was so happy to be done with this mission, "Thank you Master, but please don't ever ask me to do something like that again. I can still taste rich douche." I complained as I scrunched my face in disgust. It's gonna be a long time untilI get those nightmarish events out of my mind.

He chuckled with amusement, "Ask you of this again, I will not." He reassured me with a proud smile.

"Alright, so I don't know what's on that, I didn't get a chance to look. I just grabbed everything that was on his holotable." I pointed to the drive in his hand and he eyed it curiously, "Also, we overheard talk about someone named Sidious and something about him waiting on his daughter; but that's all we were able to hear so I'm not exactly sure what it means." I shrugged as I gave him an apologetic look for not knowing more.

He nodded slowly without looking at me, he appeared to be in deep thought,"Hm, go to the council I must. Rest, deserve it you both do."

"Thank you Master Yoda." Anakin bowed to him respectfully and I did the same before my Master slowly walked away with his cane, "I'm so glad that's over with." Anakin sighed as he turned to look down at me with a relieved expression.

I smiled, feeling the exact same way , "Me too, now let's go sleep in the comfort of our own bed, I'm tired as hell and my feet are still sore." I complained, no doubt I have blisters. Note to self, never run in heels. Or better yet never wear heels again. I need to remind Yoda to not pack heels for me, not that they aren't beautiful and they very well with the dresses, but I'd much rather wear flats or nothing..

Anakin and I walked down the hallways side by side, "No doubt Clovis is punching the air right now." He smiled with amusement as we turned a corner towards our room.

I chuckled in response, "Poor guy really thought we had something. Too bad for him, my heart belongs to only one person." I smiled up at my favorite person in the galaxy who winked down at me in return.

~*~•~*~

I sat up from our bed and looked over to see Anakin sleeping peacefully on his back. His chest rose and dropped down slowly with every breath he took. I looked away from his beautiful figure and rubbed my temples with a sigh, I was woken up by an intense headache. It was aggravating, I felt like my head was going to split into two.

I stepped off of the bed and went into the bathroom to find the pain killers; only to see that we were completely out. I groaned in frustration as I threw the empty bottle in the waste basket. Luckily, I had an extra bottle in my bathroom next door.

I grabbed Anakin's robe and placed it over my nightgown. I stepped around the room slowly and quietly so I wouldn't disturb him from his slumber. I peaked out into the hallway to make sure no one would see me leaving his room and quickly tip-toed into mine; closing the door behind me.

I went to the bathroom and filled the cup in there with water so I could take the pills with ease. I swallowed them down and sighed; hoping they would work fast. I closed the cabinet and jumped when I was met with my reflection along with a dark figure and those piercing red eyes standing behind me, "No." I whispered in fear, this can't be happening. I dropped the glass cup onto the floor and spun around, only to see no one there.

Then I felt a searing pain on the bottom of my feet, I looked down to see the cup shattered and I had stepped forward, stupidly, so the glass was digging into my skin. How did that happen? I stepped back only to cry at the pain from pushing the glass in further. I jumped back so I was sitting on the sink now and I could begin pulling the glass out.

What the hell just happened? Why-why couldn't I remember?

"Babe what happened?" I snapped my head up to see Anakin in the doorway with a worried expression.

I shook my head, "I came over here for painkillers and then I- I guess I just dropped it." I looked down at the shattered cup. I couldn't even remember dropping it. My eyes were currently burning from lack of sleep and my head was still pounding, I just need to rest.

He sighed, "Hold on let me clean this up and I'll help you." He left and came back within seconds with the broom and pan that I had setting over by the closet. He cleaned up every shard while I continued picking the pieces out of my foot and throwing them into the sink, "Alright let me see it." He grabbed my foot gently and inspected before pulling tweezers out of my drawer and continued on to remove the glass for me, "You need to be more careful, you have too many accidents in this bathroom." He looked up at me before gazing back down on my bloodied foot.

I nodded with a sigh, "I know, I'm sorry." I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hands. I was so tired, I still felt half-asleep.

He finished pulling the glass out and got a bandage from my first-aid kit that I kept in here; he wrapped my foot expertly and placed a kiss on the bandage when he was done, "All better." He smiled as he brought his hand up and pinched my cheek, "Come on, I'll carry you back to bed." He picked me up and held me in his arms as he shut the light off. As he walked, I glanced over his shoulder and eyed the bathroom. I was frustrated for not remembering, and every time I thought about it, everything went fuzzy. I sighed as I leaned my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes.
