Why this must be read: Because Anakin/Obi-Wan is my OTP, and I'm a hard sell for it. If I'm reccing it here, that means it is, in my opinion, outstanding. This fic is full of lovely description, absolutely bullseye characterizations, believable dialogue, and a real gut-wrenching ending that suits this angst-filled pairing. The sex scene is hot, but bittersweet. Diana Michelle just gets this pairing and makes it utterly believable in a way few others can. She will break your heart, as it should be broken, given the ultimately tragic end to Anakin and Obi-Wan's relationship.
When he opened his hand, he wasn’t surprised to see a small blue stone. The lettering was still crisp and clear, and Anakin’s energy signature had sunk even further into it in the past five years. It was warm in his hand, slightly warmer than body temperature, and he suspected that it always was.
It sang of Anakin and of dangerous things.
Of roads that should not be taken.
Of a promise that Obi-Wan should never have allowed himself to make.
But he’d made it, foolish as it had been. He couldn’t take it back.
And in the clarity of the moment, he realized that he didn’t want to take it back.
The Force told him nothing, one way or the other, but by the rules of the Order, this would be more than a mistake. He was already far too attached to Anakin and adding the dimension of the physical could only make that attachment stronger.
Even if he didn’t entirely see how that was possible.
But he’d been wrong about so much of this already.
And now he had two conflicting promises – one to the Order, one to Anakin.
In the end, the choice wasn’t a choice at all.
He already knew which path he was going to follow.
