First Person POV
(Y/n)

My eyes slowly refocus, fluttering slightly as my sight becomes clear again.

The first thing I'm aware of: my head kills.

The second thing is I'm no longer under the dashboard, instead I'm laid across Anakin's lap as he continues to pilot the ship. Sensing I'm awake, his gaze drops down meeting my flustered face. "Stop looking at me." He snaps, and I instantly raise a small eyebrow, glaring at him.

"I beg your pardon?" I sit up, nearly at his eye level, waiting for an answer.

"If you don't shut up I'll knock you back out. The only reason you're sat here," he gestures to his lap, "is because my Master told me to be nice after I told him the mission details, and there was nowhere else for you to sit." Anakin grumbles the last part, voice dripping with frustration.

I'm guessing he doesn't like being told what to do or something.

"Hah, you have to get instructed to be nice. Shows how rude you are." His fingers glide along, flicking switches and pressing random buttons (excuse my lack of knowledge, I don't know how to fly), before the ship starts to autopilot.

Firmly, he uses his now free hands to shove me back onto the floor, making me land painfully on my ass.

"Doesn't mean I have to follow those instructions, Princess." He says my title like it's an insult, stretching his legs out towards me as he leans back in the chair.

"Move your legs, you're kicking me." I try crawl further under the dashboard, but my back hits the metal with a sharp thud. As if it couldn't get any worse, I hit my head too, crying out in pain as I crawl back out. I look up at Anakin, seeing his expression soften just slightly, before he reaches down and pulls me back onto his lap like I weigh nothing.

"Thank you." My voice is barely a whisper, the agony in my head only increasing.

"You're in pain." He states gruffly, looking at me.

"It'll pass." I respond.

"You've been through what I'm guessing is a horrible experience for the past six days, and you say 'It'll pass'?"

"Anakin, I'm fine."

"We aren't on first name privileges yet, Princess. And no you're not fine. I can feel your pain in the force, what hurts?"

"Everywhere hurts. Literally everywhere."

"Go to sleep then."

"You just want me to stop talking."

"Yeah, but I'm still meant to rescue you even if you're a stupid princess. Part of rescuing you is making sure you're okay." He says softly, using a hand to guide my head gently against his chest, before reaching down for his cloak on the ground and wrapping it around me.

"Aw, you can be nice." A harsh flick of his finger hits my forehead, exactly where I hit my head, resulting in a loud wince from me.

"Shut up. I told you, it's just part of my mission. I can't wait to get away from you. As soon as we're off that ship and you're back to your coddling parents, my life will be bliss."
