Rating: PG (for mild descriptions of previous sexy good times)

Morning breaks. Light streams in through shaded window slats, gradually signaling the rise of another day – a new day. Same planet, same rich, upscale neighborhood, same galaxy even, but new – now and forever changed.

Worried eyes gaze down at the figure – still sleeping soundly – curled into his torso. Her light, even breath tickled the hair of his chest, her smooth silken skin lovingly warming his wherever they touched underneath the sheets. He reached, fingertips silently moving to test the chestnut ringlets of her hair . . . but stopped short.


His brow furrowed. What have I done?

Oh I love this piece. So beautifully exquisite, gorgeous and intimate, it captures the emotions, the setting, the characters so perfectly.

At the end I'm imagining him being a little late in his return to the Temple!

A wonderfully inspiring fic as always Rosalie.

This was such a beautiful story! You really nailed the characters, and I just loved the atmosphere of the work throughout. Obi-Wan's emotions seemed very realistic to me, and that made reading this a real pleasure. Your descriptions were also very captivating. I really loved it!

Oh I felt like crying! This was so beautiful. You did a truly amazing job Rosalie, the characterisation was perfect and this was so angsty and romantic. I don't know what else to say. Sometimes I just get totally speechless and words aren't enough to illustrate my feels.

Just right mood - the sense that their friendship /does not/ have to end here - and whatever comes next, they can withstand it because they are stronger together. Lovely piece.

Oh, that's okay. I didn't need my heart in one piece or anything...

In all seriousness, this was an incredibly moving piece. I could see it all happening in my head. Your words painted such a vibrant picture. Beautifully done all the way around. Even if my heart's all broken now. :-)

Very nicely done, my friend. You managed to keep an otherwise OOC scenario, very in character for them. I couldn't have imagined a more perfect way for the situation to go. You got those two spot on.

First of all, thanks to everyone who took the time to read (so far!) and who commented. I appreciate it!

@ Danielle - Oooh! Sexy. It certainly would have been hard for him to leave after that!

@ Kate - That's so incredibly kind. Thank you! I'm really pleased you enjoyed it.

@ Nat - Aw! Don't cry! *hands tissues* Thank you for the compliments, my friend. You know me: angsty and romantic! Haha. And "speechless" is a pretty awesome compliment too, Nat. *Hugs*

@ pronker - Exactly! I'm really glad to know that my points came through. Thank you for reading!

@ Mel - NOOOOOOO!! *frantically picks up the pieces of your heart and tries to glue it back together* I'm glad you enjoyed the story though! When a story you write can make someone feel something like that?? That's an incredible compliment! *hugs*

@ Amelia - Aw, thankies! Compliments about characterization are the ones that mean the most I think. It's something I really work on so it's gratifying to know that they feel right. I'm honored that you think so.

[NoobianRose]
