Ohhh Moddy thanks for posting that list, I had forgotten about some of those, like royal protector. Could we see some nor eof that one please? Obis point of view on moving forward with qui? How is anakin doing/does he know?
Their
real relationship exists only
behind closed doors.
For
the court they are still play
the roles granted them.
Qui-Gon
as the Star Emperor, benevolent
and straight backed with smile wrinkles around his mouth and eyes
bluer than the sky above as he sat on his throne to rule his kingdom
with the fairness and kindness they had known through his entire era
as Emperor.
Obi-Wan
is still the Royal Protector, Lord Protector at his post, straight
laced and serious with piercing eyes that never let the courts
secrets pass him by as he watched them like a hawk to let no danger
close to the royal family as he stood by the dais of the throne.
That’s
who they were to the public, to the court but behind closed doors…
Laughing
as as Obi-Wan pulled him down by a grasp on his neck, Qui-Gon wrapped
his arm around the other and allowed himself to be pressed to the
closed door. “That constitute as manhandling royalty you know.”
He teased against slick lips.
“Mmn,
you like it.” Obi-Wan returned and gave no warning before he
jumped, only Qui-Gon’s quick reaction catching his thighs as the
redhead’s legs wrapped around the tall man’s waist. “And this.”
Obi-Wan kissed him deeply, distracting Qui-Gon utterly and
spellbinding him with ease.
He
could feel Obi-Wan messing with his hair as they kissed, unbinding it
to fall around Qui-Gon’s shoulders and it made him chuckle into the
kiss and pull away to peer at the panting man with pink lips. “Well,
you’re not wrong but I think you like it just as much.” He bumped
their noses together.
“I
like everything about you.” Obi-Wan wiggled in his grasp, sighing
in pleasure as Qui-Gon squeezed his rear. “From
your big hands to your long hair.” For point he ran one hand
through it while keeping the other arm around the shoulders for
support.
Chuckling
huskily, Qui-Gon carefully walked towards the bed, settling a knee on
it to drop down with Obi-Wan pinned beneath. “And I love everything
about you, dear protector.” He rumbled deeply before stealing a
deep kiss.
Things
may have gone further if there wasn’t a knock to the door, both
jerking their heads towards it warily despite knowing it was locked.
“Yes?” Qui-Gon called out, his voice deep.
“Dad?”
Came Anakin’s hesitating voice and both winced.
Qui-Gon
slowly unwound himself from his lover, standing. “Yes Anakin, was
there something you needed my boy?” Qui-Gon questioned while
pulling up his hair into some semblance of order in case Anakin
needed him.
There
was a short silence as Obi-Wan was fixing his shirt, knowing that
nothing would happen further after this disturbance and feeling
faintly annoyed it.
“Do
you know where Obi-Wan is dad? I’ve looked for him but he’s not
in his rooms and I can’t find him.” Anakin finally answered.
Glancing
quickly at Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon seemed to weigh his opinions even as
Obi-Wan stared back quietly, awaiting whatever the Emperor would
decide to answer his son with… but Obi-Wan would admit that his
heart was lodged somewhere in his throat as he waited, wondering…
“He’s
here Anakin, with me.” Qui-Gon finally said.
Obi-Wan
pushed to his feet slowly, walking quietly across the floor to his
lover to press himself against the others back at the continued
silence, wrapping his arms around Qui-Gon’s waist. A large, warm
hand settled on his hand in return as they waited.
“Oh…
I-I see. I… Goodnight than.” Anakin’s shaking voice got out and
before Qui-Gon could reply, they heard steps leading away quickly.
Pressing
his cheek to the shoulder blades, Obi-Wan squeezed the taller man to
him. “…I’m sorry.” He whispered.
“Don’t
be.” Qui-Gon sighed deeply. “He has to understand… to learn.”
He turned slowly in Obi-Wan’s arms, cupping his face with his
hands. “Emotions… we do not control them and love…” Qui-Gon
ducked his head to steal a tender kiss. “Is the hardest one to
control.”
Letting
himself melt into the loving kiss, Obi-Wan allowed the other to back
him towards the bed again, knowing that tonight would now only be to
sleep.
He
didn’t mind.
Obi-Wan
just hoped that Anakin wouldn’t feel too hurt.
