Chapter 11: Recovery

"Master Obi Wan?" Ahsoka's small voice began to fill his head, her smooth hand drifting by his own hand.
"Ah…Ahsoka?" he heard himself whisper, shocked at his coarse voice.
"Its ok Master Obi Wan your ok now" Ahsoka whispered into his ear again.
"Obi Wan your alive!" Anakin's shocked voice, hearing someone move around the room.
"Obviously" he said sarcastically.
"He survived!" Obi Wan heard Anakin shout out before he let himself drift of into a unknown world known as sleep.

Obi Wan let himself sink into his covers, the warmth taking his body deep into the force. The cast on his leg itched like crazy, but he tried ignoring it knowing that it was just a process of recovery. He felt the brace hold his bone in place, feeling it pierce through his skin as he moved gently. He slowly lifted himself up into a sitting position and rested his back on the headrest, letting the cool metal cool his neck. Smells of linen continued to fill his nose as he let the blanket drift slowly of his arms.
"Obi Wan?" Anakin's voice sounded from beside Obi Wan as he turned his head slowly to see Anakin walking in towards him, his robes now clean and removed of all signs of blood and sand, behind him Ahsoka walked in after him each of her steps bouncy and filled with happiness. He saw a small smile come to Anakin's face as he walked to his bed side and sat beside him, gripping his hand gently and yet firm enough to let Obi Wan know that Anakin felt pain beyond the darkness.
"Anakin" Obi Wan began gripping Anakin's hand slightly and pulling himself into a direct contact position, seeing the remorse in his eyes and the awkward smile on his face.
"You did everything you could. It wasn't your fault"
"But it was. If I had gotten there quicker, if I hadn't let Ventress grab you, you would be ok now" Anakin shouted, a few tears dripping down his cheeks as he held Obi Wan's hand tighter.
"Anakin none of this is your fault" Obi Wan said again tracing the slit that lay on Anakin's wrist, feeling the skin fold across his finger. "Anakin " Obi Wan said again, holding onto his wrist and making him look at him, his eyes shining brightly into his own. Anakin tugged his wrist free and moved away from him, feeling Obi Wan's aura sadden.
"I'm going to get a drink" at that Anakin walked from the room, not turning back to face either of them. Obi Wan sighed at that, he could sense the darkness that his former apprentice held and it was consuming him.
"Ahsoka?" Obi Wan asked, turning his head to Ahsoka who was still looking through the door.
There was a small silence between the two of them, perhaps the awkwardness of the situation making Ahsoka feel nervous.
"Yes Master Obi Wan?"
"Keep an eye on Anakin for me" Ahsoka nodded her head slightly and held onto Obi Wan's hand tightly, his rough skin connecting with her smooth. "Keep an eye on him"
Final one :cries: for real this time!
