An Innocent Evening for two.... or three.

[Garza]

I just smiled at her and tried not to blush as she said I was handsome. I took her hand and led her into the restaurant. Walking on behind the old woman, she was leading us to the back. I knew exactly where she was taking us. Here on Couscant, there are many levels. Each one with road systems. This one happened to be hanging over the top of others. I smiled as I had a feeling she was taking us to the balcony.

However, I turned to look at my love, her asking if her hair clashes with the dress. I shook my head and chuckled as we moved past the counter towards the back. Even as all the eyes were on us.

"No my dear. I think it's because of how bright you are."

Her pink skin was irresistible to me. And seeing as she was a Zeltron, and even now could tell was releasing pharamones, like all zeltron do, especially when this one happens to be pregnant. I am sure they could all, almost literally, feel the love between us. Even so, we were move to the back. Having to stop to wait for Em to unlock the door. Once opening it, I walked through to see an open balcony with a table set for two. An unlit candle, and even off to the side, a bar to choose an assortment of drinks.

After Maya had walked through, Em spoke.

"Now you two make yourselves comfortable, and I will be right in with the food."

She bowed her head to Maya, and then winked at me before closing the door. I opened my arms wide and looked out at it before looking back at her asking,

"What do you think?"

Walking where the lights was dancing off the walls. It was the art work that took her by surprise, it was simple but had its own beautify. Finding herself unable to speak for a while. Just looking first to Xander how at peace he was but feel with real joy to be in this special place. Bring herself up close to his side. "Breath Taking" smiling. Coming to slip her fingers with his to enter lock them. Just how much at peace she felt when with him. Even now with in her own womb there was at peace.

Just the wonder of him sharing some of his own world with her was enough to make her own self leap with joy. That moment she knew that the time would come but had nothing to run from any more. Nothing to go chasing after. It was her own duty that keep her from seeking the peace that she needed.

Good. It was breathtaking for her, and that was a good sign already. I smiled as we walked towards the table. I pulled out the chair for her to sit down in, and then helped push her in. I was going to be as kind and as much of a gentlemen that I could. I then walked over to the counter. Looking over the various drinks that were lined up. Noticing that most of them were "adult drinks" I didn't pick any of those up. Maya was not allowed to drink to prevent the baby from having anything wrong with it, or coming out with an addiction to the types of drinks.

Instead, I picked up a bottle of sparking juice, and poured two glasses for us. I closed the bottle up and sat it back down on the counter. Taking the glasses and setting them onto the table. One in front of Maya. and one in front of me. I sat myself down across from her. Scooting in the seat just enough, and then looked up at the beautiful woman. Even if she was pregnant, she was still glowing and beautiful. I have seen this woman at her best, and at her worst. And yet, I still loved her. She was special to me. And someone I would not so easily forget.

I smiled brightly as I leaned a little bit forward in the chair, "I hope that you are enjoying this to some extent."

Not helping but give a bit of a grin to the fact that Xander was already playing the protective father. Pouring her a simple glass of juice, this couldn't been more of a surprise. Okay maybe not but still it was something special at this moment in time. Just how much of her eyes took him in, the great features. Just the way he action where always towards her. Even when she had been at her lowest. Knowing that she thought couldn't get any worse. Coming along Xander always there to pick her up, even in the middle of the storm.

Trusting that their had been many of those storms knowing that many more would have to be faced. At less she knew one thing that was she wouldn't face them alone. Having Xander by her side made her stronger in every way. Even from the first lesson he gave her with lightsaber. This knowing that she would never be one of the strongest with a blade in the order. No her path was so much different then her own. In the end it would be the force and fate that brought them closer, to a bond only a few had every shared together.

Finding herself staring at him though her own dark pinkish eyes. "Xander, I love you even more then I every thought possible, could every understand, know you have my heart you only."

I stopped myself at her words. Said with true intent, and meaning from what I could tell. She spoke of her heart only belonging to me. And that meant a lot. After all that has happened, the shaky part, Maya's fall, my own leaving of the Silver Jedi for a time, Only for us both to return. Knowing that even through all of this, she was still willing to be with me, overlooking the mistakes and wrong doings I have done in my past, accepting me for the person that I am, and from first hand experience, I can be a handfull. Her words meant more than a lot to me.

Reaching across the table, I grabbed her hand with my own. Feeling the warmth once more, I smiled brightly. Looking down at her pink flesh. And then up to her even darker pink eyes with my own blue ones.

"I love you too darling. Knowing that your heart belongs to me, it's only right to say that you have already taken mine."

Yes audience, this thread is very lovey dovey right now. What do you expect, they are on a date! Nonetheless, I could feel the blooming between us. And I could feel a connection within the force that bonded with each other. Making the ends meet and form as one. I felt in connection with her as though I could feel the very happiness that she had. Making my smile become toothy and large. I felt good. And I felt like this was the best day of my life.

It took nothing at all to let his much larger hand come over hers. Even so it was so gentle with her as if one could forget for a time that he was a season warrior. Even so she could see into a piece of his very soul. What made Xander what he was before her tonight. In this moment she knew that this was a very special moment more so then anyone knew.

Even the galaxy could be ripped apart tomorrow even now it was doing just that with the way the sith was invading planets. One thing was clear one couldn't see the future so one must embrace the now. Time will stand still for this night, to make this such a special bonding time for each other.

About to say something as it seem that their was a leap of joy coming from with in her. Knowing that it was something more it was the life forms that now grew with in her. Any day now they would be born. To be born in such a time like this, it wasn't the unknowing that scared her the most.

Knowing that they created life with in her was saying something more then the galaxy itself. Life was such a precious thing only the force could know what had been created that time by the waterfalls on Voss.

"Xander my sweet sweet dear, I can think of no other that would make the best father in the galaxy then you, I"m proud of what we made between us. I'm glad you never gave up on me, I couldn't be with out you, my life is complete now that you are by my side.

I looked at her. She looked at me. And no we didn't get to the kissing part just yet.

I listened to her words. Saying that I would be a great father for the two children. As well, thanking me for never giving up on her. Still to this day, she is my most successful apprentice. Well, kind of. I had taught her some lightsaber forms so she could protect herself when I couldn't be there. But now? She was a Master Healer, And yet, had a boyfriend who was close to being the best Lightsaber wielder in the Silver Jedi. Both of us have faced many battles. Taking part in different sections to help what we are best at.

Her taking care of the wounded, and me, fighting the Sith and causing harm to the others who were unfortunate to be told to fight me. I smiled at that thought. My face turned a little pink from the words that she spoke to me. I really felt like hiding myself and saying that there are other people who are better than me. And it's true! There are better people than me. However, I thought about it for a moment to realize that I might be the perfect person for Maya. And not anyone else. I needed to set up an idea that I would have to play out later when we weren't occupied with war, and at the current moment, a Date.

"Thank you. That means a lot to me, Maya. I am glad to stand on your side, and you, mine."

Her smile made me smile. Simply seeing she was happy made me feel the same way. It was like this for a lot of couples. Knowing that they were happy, made you feel good about yourself because you may have done something right. Something that would not be remembered for all time by that person. And all I wanted in return for helping Maya, was to see that she was happy.

Opening the door, Em walked in with a tray of food in one hand, and walked over. Her old grin was large as she saw our hands clasped together. She decided to not press as she spoke.

"Here you go."

Placing the platters on the table in front of myself, and in front of Maya, Only to set the little tray down, and take the tops of both platters in her hands and pull them up to reveal a steak that was in the fashion of a 'king cut' The finest cut to meat from any animal no matter what it was. There were some greens, even a potato, and then in a third separate platter, was an assortment or rolls, and other food items that we could choose from.

"Eat up, and enjoy your meal."

With those words, she left the room.

The smell that come floating from the tray only gave her a grin upon her lips. To have forgotten how hungry she was at the fact that she was not only eating for herself but for two extra. After all she let her eyes come to rest on the food that had been left.

"Em is great, to bring in such wonderful food to us. Your lucky to have such one like her growing up.", He couldn't help but feel as those she could be looking at what her son or daughter like like. This would bring such joy to see them look more like their father. As she couldn't let this much get a head of herself. What mother wouldn't want the best for her children.

Reaching out for one of the warm steaming rolls, breaking off a piece before reaching out to, "Open up my sweet darling,", as she let the piece of bread slip into his mouth. Playing with his hair, even the first time she knew something was different then just her trainer.

"Really? Feeding people already?"

I let the piece of roll slide into my mouth and chewed it. Smiling and shaking my head a little bit. Her comment about Em, and how I had her earlier on in my life. In all truth, she was only there because I stole from her. I wasn't proud of it, and after she learned of my story, she let me in. I owe her. She didn't raise me. She just allowed me to stay here for free when I was on Courscant.

Now, I rarely saw her. She knew that I was a Jedi. And even liked it that I was gone instead of here. Out saving the Galaxy and whatever else. I cut part of the meat and took a bite. Thinking all of this over.

"Eat up darling. There is more than enough for the three of you."

Knowing just how to get her to laugh it was the way she laugh that made her even more in love with him. After all they been through he had been the first to rush to her side when self imprison in the temple. Knowing that she would never fall to the darkness. The goodness that she had deep with in her make up for the light that would always shine through her.

"I guess you can say its a mother instincts.

Little by little she cut her own steak to start the most wonderful moist meat in her mouth.

Everything is so tasty so very tasty...

AS she thought of other things until she couldn't help but smile.

I know darling we don't know what they are going to be yet, but what would some of the names you think we could name the darlings.
