Obi-Wan jerked around to stare at Anakin in shock, eyes wide. Had he - Could have - No. No, there was no way he’d heard that right. Anakin did care about him, Obi-Wan knew, but enough to want to... ? It seemed impossible.

It was impossible. There had to be another reason for it. If Anakin wanted to leave, it had to be motivated by something else; it had been terribly narcissistic for Obi-Wan to think himself the primary motivation, even if only for a moment. Whatever the ‘something else’ was, though, Anakin still didn’t want to leave him behind, and Obi-Wan supposed that was rather flattering in itself. 

He took a breath and made himself relax again as quickly as he’d tensed, releasing the brief roil of emotion the question had elicited into the Force. The entire reaction had taken only seconds, but Obi-Wan still felt in a much better position to deal with the situation than he had before it.

“Great to see you have finally come to your senses somewhat.”

“Since we’re getting leave today I don’t want to do anything but stay here with you.” Anakin spoke in a serious tone as he wrapped both arms around Obi-Wan, hugging him tightly and a bit possessively, even. “What do you say? If you want to we can go out at night when the corridors of the Temple are emptier and there are less eyes on us. Maybe a bar, or a restaurant. No explanations to be given, just you and I.” he kissed Obi-Wan’s neck, smiling against his skin.
