part 2 bc i am a slave to your demands (i say that while vehemently avoiding the eyes of people who are waiting on request fulfilments)

   
   

   
   
Surprisingly, this is your first time on a ship. Anakin has tried in the past to take you for a ride, but you've always refused. The idea of floating in a metal vessel seemed insane and terrifying to you, but for him, you'd do much worse.

"So," Fives begins after a long silence. You've been flying for a long time, now, and finally Dagobah has come into view. "You must be very close to General Skywalker for him to fly you out all this way."

You look over to him with wide eyes, not sure how to label your relationship, and not particularly wanting to reveal that this is just an elaborate booty call. So instead, you choose to lie. "Actually, General Skywalker and I are just acquaintances. I am a... a bug specialist."

He gives you an odd look and tilts his head. "Oh?"

"Yep," You reply, trying to look and sound as casual as possible. "That's why I was needed on Dagobah. To help with the... bugs, and stuff."

Fives nods once. "Oh."

Soon after that awkward encounter, you finally land on the planet. It's as swampy and damp as you've heard from friends, and you suddenly aren't as excited to be here.

The ship landing has caught most of the team's attention and by the time you and Fives are stepping off the landing bay, a small crowd is there to welcome you. Anakin is the only one you notice, though. He steps forward, lips parting as he prepares to greet you, when suddenly you hear a loud yell.

"Oh, fucking, shitting fuck!" The man screams, clutching his leg.

"What's wrong, Master Kenobi?" One of the troopers ask the man who is screaming in pain, while Anakin uses the distraction to pull you to the side.

"Hi, starlight," He says, giving you a bright smile.

You take your eyes off the injured man and smile back up at Anakin, forgetting the fact that things other than him exist. "Hi, Banani."

"How was the journey here?" He asks, placing his hand on your arm and stroking your skin with his thumb. "Was Fives nice to you?"

Nodding, you do your best to ignore Kenobi's yelps. "He was a gentleman."

"Good," Anakin mumbles with a smirk, his eyes flickering down to your lips and exposing him for what he truly wishes he could be doing right now.

"Hey, Miss Y/L/N!" Fives suddenly calls out, snatching your attention from Anakin.

"Yes?" You ask while you and Anakin walk over to where a group is crowded around Kenobi.

"We came just in time," Fives says with a wide grin, pointing down at Kenobi's leg. "He's been bitten by some sort of bug!"

"Oh?" You ask, your heart beginning to race.

Fives directs his words to everyone as he yells, "Fear not, everyone! Miss Y/L/N is a bug specialist; she came precisely for this reason!"

Everyone visibly relaxes, including Kenobi, but your anxiety is hitting the roof.

"What are you talking about?" Anakin asks him quietly, narrowing his eyes.

"That's why you flew her out here, Sir," Fives tells him with a stupidly large smile. "To handle the bugs."

"Yes," You say quickly, causing Anakin to tilt his head in confusion. "Fives is absolutely right. This is... exactly why I came to Dagobah."
