Jek had immense difficulty pulling away from Aeris in the shower, especially when she had touched him. He allowed himself to be uninhibited by her when they were alone in their quarters. During missions it was easier to focus than it was where he had permission and the ability to touch her. And he knew that with both of their self-control was worn down to the end. It took serious will power to leave her alone in the shower and get dressed, and the last of it when he left her alone naked in their room. But he knew that he had too, so he did so and headed up to the training room.<br/><br/>As he neared the door, he could sense that not all the recruits were there, but that a large number had stayed behind. He could also sense that they were not alone, so he paused outside the door, wondering how many he could surprise by barging into the door. He wished briefly their doors swung instead of sliding into the walls, the effect would be much greater. Taking a deep breath, he used the Force to aid in slamming the door open, causing the electronics to go haywire and spark as they were broken. He paid it little mind as he burst into the room, taking a secret pleasure in the way all the recruits jumped in surprise. “Hey! Who’s ready to train?” He took strong and wide strides inside, giving his best teaching look down at the recruits who had stayed. He looked them over, smirking when he realized they were exhausted and had likely copied Jax’s every move.<br/><br/>“Well I’m glad some of you had patience, none of you should be this tired.” He said, smirking softly as he took several steps in. “I should make you all run, and practice forms until you drop.” He said, though it was easy to see he was tired too. Though his came from a very different form of working out, so he walked to the opposite side of where Jax had settled and sat down. “I think perhaps the right thing to do right now, would be to properly teach you mediation.” He sat cross legged and set the back of his hands on his knees, a regular pose for the Jedi but it was also the easiest to learn sitting this way. “Sit as I am, and calm your breathing. Close your eyes and breathe deep.” He added, looking over them all to ensure they followed instructions. “I want you each to focus on your own connection to the Force. Feel it surround you and allow it to show you it is in every part of your being.” He told them, watching as each slowly found their own connections.<br/><br/>******<br/><br/>An-Lok continued to mediate, allowing the Force to surround her and fill every part of her. Her attention was on everything but herself, it was easy to have it turn to all the recruits on the training floor as they mediated and joined in the connection in the Force. Though her attention then shifted to Jax and how he too was meditating. A small smile came to her face as she felt the strength in the Force between them. She felt so elated at feeling him she was unaware the Force had picked up objects around them, circling and floating around her, unaware of it until one of the soldiers cried out in surprise as he floated. Everything crashed down to the floor when her eyes flew open, though her hand shot out to catch her lightsaber before it hit the ground. “Well, that was rude.” She quipped, deciding to get up out of the chair to collect her things and leave. She would return to hers and Jax quarters to resume meditation.
