Who: Ferus, Padmé, Anakin, others (open)
Where: Ferus' apartment
What: Happy lifeday?
Padmé moved with deliberate slowness toward Ferus' apartment. She glanced anxiously at Anakin as they walked, worrying about Ferus' reaction when he not only saw her show up on his doorstep, but Anakin too. Never mind the inevitable difficulty there would be in convincing Ferus to come stay with them.
And there was the fact that Anakin was making a tremendous sacrifice in agreeing to this in the first place. More than anything, she worried that Ferus might end up saying something to send Anakin into a rage. The fallout could be catastrophic.
They stopped outside of the apartment.
Padmé looked up at Anakin again, silent as she carefully held the container in which she'd placed the cake. She wordlessly stood up on her toes to kiss him softly before sighing and turning her attention to the imminent situation at hand. She knocked on the door and they waited for Ferus to answer.
