anakin skywalker, padme amidala

Who: Anakin and Padmé
What: Post *eh-hem*, being silly, and Padmé has an important question to ask Anakin
When: Backdated to early afternoon Wednesday, home from work early and before school lets out
Where: Floor of their sitting room
Rating/Warnings: Well, they are nekkid – and ‘nekkid’ means they are up to mischief, so, medium to high?
Status: In progress/Closed

Despite having been married the previous three years, there were still many things Anakin had yet to experience. And Padmé as well, as she was just recently married herself. Their current state of varying degrees of nudity, lying on the floor, wrapped in each others limbs and a blanket summoned from the back of the sofa, blissfully ignorant to the concerns of the world beyond their front door was one such new experience.

A moment of heated passion proved too much for either to contain long enough for them to make it to the bed. The floor had proven quite sufficient for their needs. But had left the Jedi quite literally caught with his pants down twisted at his ankle. One boot still remained on his foot, blocking the complete removal of said pants, their eagerness to get on with things prevented him from placing this boot with its pair… which was currently Force knew where at the moment. Maybe on the other side of the table?

A situation like this would have been unfathomable to the secret lovers back in their home universe. Always watched, monitored from all angles by Padmé’s very public life and by Anakin’s Order, they had to be meticulously careful about every interaction between them; from the language they used to express their feelings, to the moments of physical contact. All actions disciplined until they were absolutely sure no one would catch them. Giving into their lusts whenever they felt like it without thought to their privacy, even in the middle of Padmé’s apartment, could very well have sounded the death knell of their highly structured house of cards.

It was nice to never have to worry about that again. Within reason – Anakin knew they would need to pick up the evidence of their sated appetites before younger, impressionable eyes (the owner of which having a right to barge through that front door, given how he lived here, too) stumbled upon them. But they had hours yet – hours! Oh, how glorious that word sounded when it was followed not by thought that it meant separation with no promise of when they could see each other again, but rather simply a need to get dressed before resuming their evening routines.

Anakin’s grin split his face wider and he may have even giggled – though he would deny it if questioned.

“I remember,” he said quickly to recover his reputation, “the removal of our clothes being a more equal affair.” A nod to the fact that his legs were still trapped (embarrassing for a Jedi – he was hardly prepared for a fight like this) and his undershirt had never quite made it completely off his torso while Padmé current favorite style of dress left disrobing for her a matter of shrugging her shoulders (so it seemed to Anakin) and she was disarmingly (almost) nude. Compared to the ornate gowns and regal headdresses she wore for her senatorial station back in their world, his perception on the subject was practically accurate.

Padmé breathed a contented sigh, then paused amidst the blissful scene to shift again and look up at Anakin's face. "Dates. Courting. Spending time together with the goal being romance and - us. Like the picnic."

"Or - like the picnic started out," Padmé had a time picking the grass out of her hair after that. She had finally settled on showering and had decided that next time they needed a larger picnic blanket. "At least."

Anakin expression of complete confusion set deeper. He had spent time with Padmé, they love each other, they expressed their feelings often, and in the past it was the same when they had time all to themselves. There was one small problem – he was Jedi. And Jedi didn’t ‘date’. They didn’t love, they didn’t marry, and they didn’t have families. Sure, Anakin had casually disregarded each of those restrictions, and happily so, but the fact remained his education on the activity was woefully inadequate. He had, after all, only a dictionary definition of the social custom.

He paused, considering Padmé’s request.

“What are you expecting?” As much as he would jump at the chance for more ‘picnics’, the weather was slowly dropping and the chance of a repeat of that afternoon was months off.

Padmé paused in figuring out how to respond to the question, as it was a loaded question in some aspects. She knew her relationship with Anakin wasn't necessarily a normal relationship, or she didn't imagine it to be so, since it felt so special to her; any romantic interests from the past paled in comparison.

"It's not a mission, Anakin. It's - hard to explain; there's no set of specifications that I expect. Maybe I can plan a date or two and we can go on them, then we can discuss anything if you find aspects confusing?" It was the most diplomatic solution she could think of in that moment.

Anakin chewed on his lower lip for a moment.

There went his one solid approach to unknown situations. If it wasn’t a mission then how was he supposed to figure out this new thing? And when Padmé said there were no set of specifications she expect, then the ominous feeling set it. There was do or do not, no try, but when you didn’t even know what you were supposed to do? That was a recipe for failure for sure.

And he was fairly certain he couldn’t consult the Force about this one.

“Alright,” he said at last. “You plan one and,” he’ll learn as they went? Given her insistence that there wasn’t some formulaic method to this activity he was sure taking notes would be prohibited. Observation only. Like what diplomats did… Oh, he was going to fail. “And we’ll try that.” It sounded weak, like he was already expecting disaster.

Padmé shifted and leaned up to give Anakin a quick kiss, not wanting to be teasing with the lip-to-lip contact but rather wanting to express her appreciation that he was going to try to go along with the idea. "We get to have fun and enjoy each other's company. Thank you."

Never mind the fact they did that normally. A date was - well, a date was setting time apart to do it under less than normal circumstances. Still, Padmé was determined not to focus on the future date but rather she wanted to enjoy their current time together. So, after the peck, she moved to lie her head down on Anakin's chest again, but along the way she planted a gentle kiss against his warm skin, right over the area his heart would be.

Anakin was about to protest and point out that they enjoyed each other company on a regular basis – a product of being married and sharing living space. And it was pleasurable time spent together. Usually. There were moments that were less than ideal, the Children’s Cartoon Incident one such example. But overall, Anakin would say their time together was immensely fun. So what was the point of adding courtship, that brought with it rules and expectations he was sure to mess up, into their relationship?

But with the right offensive move Anakin was easily subdued.

He groaned, all logical arguments evaporated from his mind in the presence of what Padmé was doing with her lips against his skin. “Are you…” his voice caught and he had to gather his wits about him before trying again. “Did you want to go again, Padmé?” The tone of his voice all but begging, hoping her answer would align with his desire.

	Padmé smiled at the question, the near request, and shifted enough so that she was making eye contact with Anakin. She bit the edge of her lower lip, trying not to let herself make the easy transition from a smile to a grin. "Unless you want to try and take your boot off first?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She was teasing him, he knew. But he also knew it wasn't in a way that suggested she was opposed to his request. In short, the best kind of teasing. He shifted, changing positions so that he could lean over and claim her lips. He only barely stopped kissing her enough to say, "It didn't stop us the first time, why pause to deal with it now?"
