She wakes up in the small gazebo overlooking the water and smiles as the sun starts to creep over the dark corner where they took refuge. Afraid to wake him she rolls over quietly onto her side away from him and grabs her datapad.

Naboo is magical. It always has been for me. Kay and I took over when Kiyo and Geryn left Landsend in our hands. We hope we did them proud with the way that the town thrived and grew. It gave people a get away from what was happening in the galaxy. A safe haven. The lush green grasses and flowers were always a contrast from growing up in the sands of Tattooine. I learned how to swim in Naboo. Strange as that sounds for a grown woman to learn how to swim, it was one of many firsts that planet has always kept in my heart. My son was born there, I started a family there...I headlined there.

But tonight, a new memory or maybe a dream. Put into my head by the constant unrest and abuse of chemicals into my bloodstream. Either way I don't care. It was amazing. Better than any visions I've been having for the past six months. I could smell him, feel him on my skin. His warm breath hovering over my ear and into my hair. He said those words I had dreamt of. I miss your smell...why that in a galaxy full of languages and words that would be something I longed to hear? Words can be so artificial, maybe its just me being jaded but the words love, desire, need even have lost their meaning.

He stood there like nothing had ever happened. Like there was no lag in time between when he was captured and him just walking up to me at the Nomad's market. It was surreal and I'd still think I was dreaming if he wasn't next to me on this cold cement floor. No one catches my eyes or my heart like he does. Then the rain. Gods...the rain just... fell all over us in that field. Like it was rinsing us new for each other. At that point it didn't matter what had happened, or what was going to happen.

She turned back towards him watching him sleep. She suspected that he might be awake just enjoying the warmth of the sun peeking its rays into their forms. She hesitated to touch him for fear it would all evaporate into waking up alone in her room. She bit down on her lower lip as she watched his body rise and fall in the light. He looked the same as when he left, only less hair. She didn't mind the way the small hairs on his head where magnified in the stream of sunlight.
