Luminara rubbed her eyes and looked up to see Gree's handsome face. He was very warm. She loved waking up in his arms. Gree slowly opened his eyes and looked at her. Smiling, he stroked the back of her head.

"Good morning, General."

Luminara laughed. "I think we passed the formalities last night, Gree." She wrapped her arms around him and held him close. They lay there for several minutes, enjoying one another's company. Gree was the first to break the silence.

"Well, we'll be landing soon, so we better get ready before we're missed," he said.

"Alright," she mumbled, reluctantly getting out of bed. She walked to the Refresher to take a shower.

Gree got out of bed and put his sweatpants back on.

She's beautiful. We will make this work. We always figure these sorts of things out.

As he sat back down on the mattress, the shower turned off. He heard the metal door slide open a little.

"Gree," she whispered.

"Yes, Luminara? What do you need?"

"I uh . . . accidentally forgot my robes," she said, embarrassed.

Gree laughed a little. He walked over and grabbed her robes, but then stopped. Luminara, now with her head sticking out the door, looked at him with a confused face.

"Gree, could you bring them over here?" Her voice had a hint of panic.

"I don't know," he said with a playful smile, "this is a rare opportunity."

She rolled her eyes at him.

He is such a child . . . How cute.

She lifted her hand and used the force to pull the robes from him. "Ha, I win," Luminara said, quickly sealing the door behind her.

Gree laughed again.

Damn, she's too smart for me.

After a while, Luminara came out fully dressed in her robes.

"Nice try," she said, smiling softly.

Gree gave her a quick smirk. "We will be landing shortly. But before I leave, what do you have planned for the rest of the day?"

"Well, I have to report to the Jedi Council once we land. After that I am free. Why do you ask?"

"Let me take you out after your meeting with the Council. I have some leave time when we get back and I know how much you hate eating the rations they give us."

She blushed. "Alright, where should I meet you?"

Gree smiled, "Outside the front entrance of the Jedi council. Don't worry. I'll make sure to look like I'm escorting you until we get a good distance away from the temple."

"Okay good, now go back to your quarters before someone suspects something." She went behind him and began to lightly push him towards the door.

"Fine," he said in an upset tone. He turned quick, kissed her on the cheek, and left the room.

She smiled and prepared for the rest of her day.

The day continued steadily. The ship was supposed to dock around 3:00, so Gree had time to go to the mess hall. There were a lot of his brothers in there. No Luminara or Barriss though.

They are probably training.

He grabbed his food and sat down next to Cody. There were two other clones at the table. As he sat, Cody greeted him.

"Hey Gree, how are you doing?"

"Fine, thank you." Gree started to eat.

"Gree, can I ask you a question?" Cody asked, his face completely serious.

"Sure, what is it?"

"Is there something going on between you and General Unduli?"

Gree began to get nervous, but kept a straight face. He did not answer.

"Come on, don't make me order you to tell me," he said with a smile.

Gree dropped his head in surrender. "Yes," he muttered.

Great, I'm dead.

Cody put his hand on Gree's shoulder as comfort.

"Don't worry, your secret is safe with me. I think it's sweet," he stated.

Gree gave Cody a small smile. "Thank you." Then, his smile widened. "So, what's with you and Barriss then?"

Cody quickly put his helmet on. "I've got to go."

"Sure you do," Gree said, laughing.

Cody grabbed his tray and left. Gree finished eating and continued with his duties.

Luminara, now finished with training, entered the bridge. She passed some clones working at their stations. Respectfully, she greeted the Admiral.

"Hello, Admiral."

"Greetings, General."

"When will we be arriving?" Luminara asked.

"Very soon, General. I suggest you get to the exit ramp."

"Thank you, Admiral."

Luminara got below deck just in time to leave. She grabbed a ride on a gunship to the temple and gave her report. It included their victory and the casualties. It was hard for her to talk about. As she left, Kenobi caught up to her.

"Good evening, Master Unduli," he said.

"Good evening, Master Kenobi. Is there anything I can help you with?" she asked.

"Actually, I have a question for you. What was Gree doing in your room two nights in a row?" A smile grew on his bearded face as he asked.

Knowing that Kenobi could sense lying, she was honest. "He helped me with a slight sleeping disorder I got as a side-effect of the intense battle on Geonosis."

"Oh, I see. Did that require him to sleep in the same bed as you?"

Luminara just stood there with a scared expression on her face. "H-how did you know?"

Kenobi laughed. "Do you forget I'm a Jedi? I can read your thoughts and sense your feelings for him."

She sunk her head in disappointment. "You're going to tell the Council, aren't you?" she mumbled.

"No. Attachment is dangerous, but I know you are capable. Just try to keep it on the down-low, and make sure to keep your mind clear of such thoughts around other Jedi." He gave her a reassuring smile.

"Thank you, Kenobi. That is very thoughtful of you." The two exited the temple. Kenobi saw Gree and smiled.

"I'll leave you two to your . . . business. Farewell," Kenobi said.

"Farewell, Kenobi," Luminara smiled.

Gree raised an eyebrow as Luminara approached. "Let me guess; you told him."

"Yes, but we can trust him. So, where are we going?"

"You'll see," he said, smiling playfully.

He grabbed her hand and led her down through the streets. Feeling the warmth of his hand made her ecstatic, reminded her of the night before.

She noticed he was wearing new clothes."Where did you get those?" she asked, gesturing to them

"I bought them. I might not get much, but I can afford a new suit and dinner for two," he answered.

She blushed.

He cares enough to spend the few credits he has on me. Well, he sure knows how to make a woman blush.

Gree led her into a small, nice restaurant. It was pretty fancy, but yet it was cheap enough for a clone to be able to pay. A service droid greeted them.

"Table for two?" the droid asked.

"Yes, could we get a booth?"

"Of course. Right this way." The droid led them to a corner booth.

They took a seat next to each other. Gree decided to break the silence.

"So, what is it like being a Jedi?" he asked.

"It's exciting, but meaningful," she explained. "However, it does take its toll over the years."

She felt his fingers entangle themselves in hers. "I know what you mean." He looked down, thinking hard about previous battles, and squeezed her hand tighter.

She smiled and laid her head on his shoulder. Even soldiers need to be comforted once in a while. Their food came and their hands stayed entangled; they simply ate with their other hands. The warmness of being together relaxed them. Both of them finished and sat quietly, enjoying each other's company. Then, Luminara got a devious idea.

"Gree?"

"Yes, darling?" he said softly.

"What attracted me to you?"she asked with a smirk.

"Well, where to start?" he said,smiling.

He opened his mouth to speak, but then froze, staring at something. She raised an eyebrow, still holding her smirk.

"You're trying to avoid the question, aren't you?"

"No, but I think you will be more interested in this." He pointed to a booth on the far side of the restaurant.

Luminara peered over to see Commander Cody sitting with a black robed figure. Barriss Offee.

Gree smiled at the nervous look Luminara made. "I guess the padawan doesn't fall far from the master," he said, pulling her out of her seat. Luminara started to sweat a little.

"Come on, let's go say hi." He pulled her along to the couple as they were getting up to leave.

"Hey, Cody," he said, smiling.

Cody froze and turned completely red. Barriss dug her face into Cody's arm, trying to hide herself.

"It's alright, young one. You're not the only one who found somebody," Luminara said, kissing Gree's cheek.

Barriss stood there with a shocked expression on her face. To calm her down, Cody suggested they head back to the temple.

The couples began to walk. Cody and Gree slowed a little to leave Luminara and Barriss to themselves. Besides, Gree did not mind taking the time to talk with his brother.

"So, you and Barriss. No surprise there," he said with a smile.

Cody blushed. "Yeah, she's great. She's a little shy, but it's cute. What I'm curious about is you and Luminara."

Gree smiled. "She is perfect. She's patient, caring, and beautiful."

Cody started to laugh.

"What?" Gree asked, confused.

"You're a love struck fool. I'm happy for you." They continued to the temple.

Luminara put her hand on her padawan's shoulder. "Are you alright?"

Barriss wiped the tears from her eyes. "I'm fine master. I just didn't want you to find out."

"Why?"

She began to cry. "I thought you would be disappointed in me."

"Barriss look, you're not the only one trying to keep something a secret. We won't tell anyone. This will be our secret."

Barriss relaxed a little. "Thank you, Master."

"No problem," she said, smiling. The clones caught up the Jedi. Cody started to comfort Barriss, holding her close as they walked. Luminara wrapped her arm around Gree and squeezed him tight. He smiled at her in response. The couples finally came to the temple and went to their separate rooms. Luminara dragged Gree into her room, so they could talk.

They sat on the mattress, holding each other's hand.

Gree pulled her closer and kissed her forehead. "Are you still having those nightmares?" he asked softly.

She looked up at him and smiled. "Well, I don't know. But I didn't last night with you around . . ."

"Good. I'm glad," he whispered. He gave her a kiss and let her lay on his chest.

As they lay there, Luminara whispered in Gree's ear, "I think I found my cure. Thank you."

She gave him a long kiss. Luminara pulled away and lay back down. Gree stroked the back of her head softly. "My pleasure." He kissed her again and the two drifted asleep.

I plan on ending it here. However, if anyone has any ideas on hoe to continue the story, I would be more than happy to hear about it. :)
