The first rays of sunlight were just beginning to break through the window. My eyes slowly crept open, squinting through the gloom of the room. My vision sharpened as my eyes adjusted to my surroundings. After I slowly opened my tired eyes and had stretched a bit, I felt a muscular arm wrapped around my waist...

I slowly turned my head to look behind me from over my shoulder. My eyes grow wide as I see Anakin's face sleeping behind me, his warm breath hitting the back of my neck everytime he breathes out. I felt frozen as I felt my body shiver under the overwhelming affection. How the hell do I get out of this situation?

I decide to slowly grab his hands and gently unwrap them from my waist, my body immediatly missing the warm touch. I quietly crawled away from his sleeping figure and out of the pillow fort.

I quietly speed walked out of the room and moved towards the living room. As you got closer you heard Piett's voice, it sounded like he was on the phone with someone.

"Father, please.. all I need is a bit more time..." he sounds desperate as he talked to his father. Wait—

Father?! As in Lex Luthor??

Oh no no no no, this can't be good..

"Thank you... I promise I won't let you down.." Piett ended the call with a loud sigh of relief. I finally decided to enter as I femt myself growing hungry.

"Oh, (Y/n). Good morning," he smiled, though I could tell something was off about him...

"Good morning," I returned the smile, not wanting to cause a scene. To be fair, I still barely know him, it would be weird if I meddle into his family business.

"So....how did you sleep?" He changed his smile into a cheeky smirk as he repeatedly raised his brows up and down. I frown a bit before answering, "uh, good I guess?" You smiled with furrowed brows.

"Yeah? Was it nice cuddling with Anakin..?" He was now grinning as he leaned his elbow on the kitchen counter and rested his chin on his hand. I freeze as my eyes grow wide and my cheeks turn pink. Of course, he saw it...

"I uh—" you stuttered before gettibg cut of by heavy footsteps behind you. You turned around to see a shirtless Anakim leaning on the wall with a tired look on his face as he rubbed his eye with his hand.

"What sre you to chatting about?" He asked a bit suspiciously as he crossed his arms while still leaning on the wall in only grey sweatpants and white socks. My eyes couldn't help but wander over his toned chest and his well defined abs. He had the body of a greek god— wait what the hell am I saying? I barely even know him. But... I guess eventhough he's kind off still a stranger he's still hot as fu—

"Earth to (Y/n)," Piett shouted from across the kitchen, making me snap out if my little...trance. I immediatly look away from Anakin's body and look only to meet his eyes. He was looking back at me with a slight smirk on his face as Piett started to speak again.  Shit.. he definetly noticed my little staring session.

"Anyways, as I was saying, why don't we take a night out, ut is the princess' birthday after all." Piett winked my way. I slightly rolled my eyes but couldn't help but grow a bit flustered by his words.

"You gotta stop calling me that," I chuckled a bit as I shook my head at him.

He just smiled back and shook his head. "Never, you live and look like a princess, so princess it is." He held a teasing smile on his face.
