He smiled, knowing that she spoke the truth. Padmé had never been one to keep less than precisely that which she had promised.
"I think I'd fight the entire Jedi council just to get back to you," he chuckled.

She chuckled along with him.
"Oh, but surely not Obi-Wan." She teased.

"Oh, of course that includes Obi-Wan," he laughed. "He'd probably make the biggest commotion about it, anyhow. I wonder what he'd say if--if he found out about us."

Her expression turned serious for a moment.
"I'm not sure. I know he'd be upset, but..."
She thought of everything she knew about him, all the times she'd spoken to the Jedi Master.
"In the end, I think, he would not abandon you."

"I should hope not," he said in an attempt to alleviate the sudden seriousness of their conversation. "He's devoted far too much of himself to ensure my training and growth. He considers me something of...a brother. Or, at least, that's what I hope."
He smiled tightly.
"If anything, Obi-Wan would worry for your welfare. He always says I'm far too obstinate for my own good and that no woman would want me."

"Well, he's obviously wrong about that last part." She said, chuckling.

"Yes, very wrong."
He gently stroked the side of her face.
"I love you."

She reached up and covered his hand with her own.
"I love you, too."
She knew he would continue to worry--it was the way he was. She just hoped that he wouldn't worry himself into exhaustion over it.

He managed to muster a smile, despite his obvious anxiety, and gently squeezed her hand.
"You should sleep. I can see the exhaustion in your eyes."

"You should sleep, too."
She didn't protest, though, and settled back down into the covers again, frowning very briefly at a wave of nausea. Whatever that was, she'd have to wait until tomorrow to figure out.

"I will," he automatically answered to reassure her, although he knew that he wouldn't be getting much slumber that night. By choice, of course. Because every blink, every lapse into darkness brought with it horrible afterimages of his beloved on that table, stretched out underneath the cold, white light, screaming in agony.
He shook his head, as if to clear his thoughts, and smiled tightly down at his wife.
"Now, rest."

She gave his hand, the nonmechanical one, a reassuring squeeze.
"Goodnight, Ani."

"Good night," he echoed.
He gazed softly down at her, as she fell asleep.
