She should have been more strict with it and told him the Code was very important to follow. After all, unlike him, she had grown up on that very code from the time she was a young child. It had been the basis of her life for years, as taught to her by not only her parents, but Master Luke as well. And yet, he did have a point. After all, her own grandfather had been in love, despite what the code said. Even if he had been in hiding, he had still been a Jedi and had broken that part of the code, marrying and starting a family of his own. Besides, hearing Ben say he loved her left her feeling as though such a thing as love couldn't possibly be wrong. It left her feeling warm, wanting to stay with him like this forever and continue kissing him just like this. Even more so when he said, out of all the paths he could take in controlling his own destiny, he wanted to be with her. when he cupped her face in his hands, she smiled gently under his lips before laughing softly at the statement they should probably stop kissing, [color=deepskyblue]"That and with the others in the next room, it might not be smart to continue like we are." [/color]She mentioned, giving him one last kiss before they slowly moved apart to sit where they had originally been sitting, looking over at him with a small smile as he thanked her,[color=deepskyblue] "And thank you, Ben. For loving me."[/color] ... The next morning Odette found herself waking up sitting in the same place she had been sitting next to Ben just as she had been the night before. The only difference was her head rested ever so gently against his shoulder as she had slept. It was a comforting feeling, one that made her feel at peace for the time being. Had they really...kissed last night? Had Ben really confessed his feelings to her? And had she done the same through her actions? The way she sat next to him, leaned up against him like this, was proof that yes she indeed had done just that, and everything that had happened last night had not been just a dream. Yawning softly, she sat up and looked around. It was still very early and it seemed none of the padawans or Luke were not up yet. Good. It would have been hard to explain why she had been leaning against Ben like that had they walked in and saw them like that. It wasn't as though she regretted what had happened last night between them, because she didn't Not one bit. But she also felt it might be better to keep what was between the two of them a secret from the others. At least until they finally gained the title of Jedi Knight from Master Luke. Right now though, even though they were older than the others, they were still young in the eyes of Master Luke and as such were still under his command as his padawans. Standing up, she glanced out the window of the ship. All seemed calm and she didn't feel any disturbances in the Force for now at least. So, from what she could tell, everything was safe. Walking over to one of the tables in the room, she sat there and started digging through the cloth bag she carried around with her, pulling out one of her books. She tended to, in her free time, read often. She didn't have many books, just the ones Master Luke had given her. They were all books for studying, though she didn't mind. She had a passion for learning new things and so studying was something she didn't mind doing when she wasn't busy with anything else. She sat there silently as the others slept, reading and learning to pass the time.
