I just....

This.

I...no words. Well...a a lot of words but...

I can't...

I have loved her for years. Even when I hadn't seen her, I still loved her. Love her. Not a day has gone by since I first met her I haven't thought about her. She's the only person I've ever felt this way about and she....

*strangled laugh*

Not like I ever had much of a chance anyway.

Going to go see how many remotes it takes to shoot me until I go numb now.

[Yes. He's an idiot. I know. Thank you.]

She said there were probably plenty who didn't love her and I said they were misguided so she said she supposed she'd just have to be content with my love. And I said I'd rather her be happy instead of just content.

...And that doesn't sound like flirting to you? Don't you do anything in that Temple of yours?

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*trying for scathing but mostly just sounding tired* They don't teach courses in flirting, no.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

Is there a suggestion box? Because it sounds like you need it. *lightly squeezes his shoulder* Women aren't psychics. Well, in general, we're not. If you don't tell her that you love her, in a way where she has to respond and can't mistake your meaning, then... *shrugs*

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

That could be useful. And... *a nod* I'll keep it in mind.

*turning his gaze to her belly, moving a hand toward it, but stopping halfway* How are things with you?

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

*glances at him and gently takes his hand, setting it right above the spot where the baby's kicking with a smile, if a wry one* I'm really, really tired of being pregnant.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*feeling the baby kicking, it's kind of like suddenly all the tension he's feeling in relation to padme gets brushed away for a few moments, a smile lighting up his face* It's not too much longer.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

I know. *face softens* He's ready to come out, too. *rueful* He kicks almost nonstop. It's amazing, especially for everyone else, but after a while, it gets old for me.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*grins* He is ready to come out. I can feel it. Impatient to start his life.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

Oh, good. Impatient like his father. This is going to be wonderful. *but she's grinning* What's he feel like?

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*laughs, closing his eyes, looks like he's listening to something* You're going to have your hands full.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

Oh?

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*solemn nod* I foresee lots of running after the pitter patter of tiny feet.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

*smiles and kisses her fingertips, resting them on her stomach* Sounds perfect. Can't think of a thing I'd love better.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*smirk* You keep that in mind when he's running you ragged all over Creation.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

*glances at him* Well, that's when I'll call you to babysit, of course. Michael'll love his Uncle Anakin, I'm sure.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*did NOT just bounce in his seat. Oh no* I'd be glad to.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

*grins* I was hoping you'd say that. *sighs, content* Think I'll be a good mom?

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*takes her hand and squeezes it lightly* You'll be amazing.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

*grateful smile, squeezing his hand back* This is the one thing I can't mess up. I'm a little terrified, I think.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

*said with that amazing tone a Jedi can get of absolute calmness and certainty* You won't mess it up.

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

*tilts head back and studies the ceiling* I did before.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

You did?

[shadowed-kat.livejournal.com]

Mm. *nods after a moment* This is my second pregnancy.

[morally-cryptic.livejournal.com]

Oh....I didn't know.

*well, obviously. you are stupid.*
