She smiled.
"That's true. I guess I just wish we had more familiar faces with us."

"I wish for that, too. But I'm afraid you'll have to make do with me."
He playfully pecked her on the cheek.

"I'll survive." She said, smiling back.
She let her gaze wander the room. Actual wood furnishings, and the walls, too. While it wasn't a novelty, it was a nice change of pace from the ultra-modern materials used in buildings on Coruscant. Naboo, at least, had still used stone and marble.
"Now, we'll just have to figure out our money problem."
She pulled out what few credits she'd had on her.
"These won't last forever."
They were lucky that people here accepted them as viable currency, but she wondered how far the luck would stretch.

He didn't look down at the credits, just kept his gaze trained on her face.
"We can make them last...at least until we find a way out of here. So, just leave the worrying to me, senator."

She glanced back up at him, and smiled back.
"You sound so sure...is that regular intuition, or your Jedi senses?"

"A little of both," he laughed. "Now, if only my Jedi senses could make credits appear at will."

"Now that would be amazing."
Heaving a sigh, she moved over to the dresser and started putting away what little she had with her.

"Here, let me help you with that."
He followed her to the dresser and took from her various articles of clothing and other toiletries. He smiled down at her.
"You know, it might not be that bad here. Just you and me. Alone."

She smiled up at him.
"I couldn't think of a better upside. Back home, there was always something that seemed to keep us in opposite directions from each other."
She frowned as she tucked the last bit away.
"Politics or Jedi business, or both at once."
Part of that, she knew, was that no one had any idea that they were married, although she wondered about Obi-Wan: there were times when it seemed that he knew more than he let on.
She sighed.
"I wish..."

He understood what she was getting at. Perfectly so.
Back home, it seemed that they were husband and wife only in name. They hardly talked to each other in public, besides the few polite, strictly business-related words in passing; and they were always so caught up in concealing their tracks and watching themselves in whatever they said or did that it seemed a miracle when they were finally together alone.
He'd always felt that the entire situation had been more difficult for him than it had been for her. She seemed a natural at it. He smiled, knowing that a large part of it was probably due to her politician nerves of steel.
"You wish--?"

Her usual serious expression was underlined by a hint of sadness.
"I wish we didn't have to pretend."

He scrutinized her face and frowned.
"But we don't have to pretend here. We're safe."

"True...would it be selfish of me to say that I hope we're stuck here for a long time?"

"Not at all. If that makes you selfish, that would make me both greedy and arrogant. Intolerably so."
He bent down to give her a kiss.

She kissed him back, leaning into him a moment.
"Well, then we're both greedy and selfish." She said, kissing him again.
