As Freya sat down reading on her cot, a knock came at her door, "It's open!" she called, not having the energy to get up. The door opened revealing her brother who wore a smile on his face.

"Hello, sister," he greeted happily with the biggest smile on his face. Freya raised her eyebrows, closing her book and casting it aside.

"Why are you so happy? Are you and Padme a couple?" she asked, whispering the last part, obviously not wanting to get her brother in trouble.

"Yes, we are. I'm escorting her back to Naboo and I wanted to see if you wanted to come," Anakin spoke, the huge grin still not leaving his face/

"Oh, I'm sorry, Ani. Master Mundi specifically told me not to go on any assignments," she responded apologetically.

"It's just escorting Padme home," Anakin replied as if it was a simple task, which it was when she didn't have people trying to kill her.

"Do you remember how I hurt my wrist in the first place?" she asked, holding her injured wrist up.

"That's a valid point. I wish you could have come," Anakin told her as he looked sadly to her red carpet. Freya's eyes scanned her brother's sad face. He was up to something and she knew it.

"I know, me too. Naboo is very beautiful," Freya replied sadly, she wished she could go to Naboo without an assignment. It was the most beautiful place she'd ever been to.

"Love you, Reya," he spoke, giving her a kiss on the forehead as he hugged her. He stood from her bed and exited her room.

How did she not see it? Isn't it too quick though? Yes they've known each other for ten years but they'd only been reunited for a couple of days. But then again this was Anakin. He always rushed into things. But there was no way she was missing it. So she snuck out of her room and to the Jedi landing bay. Climbing into her fighter, she rushed towards Naboo.

She arrived in time to see Anakin and Padme get married. They seal their marriage with a kiss which made Freya go awe and want to be sick at the same time. Anakin turns to the sound and sees his sister stood there.

"Reya?" Anakin asked, shock fell upon his face, he wasn't expecting her to be there.

"Did you really think I'd miss my brother getting married?" Freya asked in return, her signature smirk taking over her lips.

"How'd you figure it out?" Anakin questioned her, he had never told her they were getting married.

"You're not that hard to read, Ani," Freya responded, tears started to build up in her eyes as she looked at her brother and her sister-in-law. Anakin looked happy and that made her happy.

"What are you going to do about your master?" Padme asked, Freya looked around at her beautiful surroundings.

"I wanted peace and quiet so I came here to get it," Freya answered with a shrug.
