A Long Time Ago, In a Galaxy Far Away

Chapter 13

The alarm sounded all too early, destroying a wonderful realm of peace and joy that Luna had dreamt up. She wasn't that upset though. After all, it was only a dream.

Luna rushed through her morning routine, her thoughts of what she was doing later that day causing her to run, jump, or skip to whatever she was doing next as she tried to find an outlet for her excitement.

She dropped off the other's breakfast on the way to school and was there extremely early, a first for her.

Luna then went through her classes, not really paying that much attention, but still managing to get the jist of everything. She also managed to force herself to get all of her homework done instead of daydreaming the school day away like she wanted to do, constantly reminding herself that if she didn't get it done, it would infringe on her time with Anakin, Padmé, and Obi-Wan.

Once the bell rang, she all but ran to her locker to unload her school books before running out of the building. She stopped at a store to buy hand warmers and then at a fabric store for her Halloween costume. Unfortunately, she didn't immediately find what she was looking for and was way too excited to get going to take the time to look for what she wanted, so, instead of hunting down every piece of fabric needed to make a Jedi costume like she was going to do originally, she just found the needed materials to make a Leia from A New Hope costume. It also meant it was quicker to make, and more free time to not be working on something and be somewhere else. It was also cheaper, which meant she wouldn't be draining her savings with her costume and also meant more money for more important things. Besides, she was already draining her savings for a different reason.

However, Luna did splurge a little. When she had gone to a costume store to see what was there for accessories, something had caught her eye. There were heavy looking cloaks, like the kind someone dressing up as the Grim Reaper or something simulare would wear. They seemed to speak to her. She just had to by them. Luna got one for herself, and then though that she might as well get adult sized ones for Anakin, Padmé, and Obi-Wan. Maybe they would want to walk around during Halloween and the cloaks would help them both blend in and stay hidden.

She stopped for food before heading on over to the hideout, a spring in her step. Luna hadn't been this happy or carefree in ages.
