Adore Thy Neighbor | Kylo Ren X Reader

Chapter Fifteen

A/N:

 This has been one of my favorite chapters so far, and it's a scene I've had in my head since the early stages of the fic were brewing in my mind. I'm so glad everyone is enjoying the story so far! Please hang tight, because it only gets better from here!

True to Kylo's word, the shoot only lasted about two hours. Part of that time was spent shooting and reshooting the scene where Kylo crawls into bed with the actress, part of the time was them embracing and kissing one another in front of the vanity, and the last few minutes was filming Kylo's hand as he set the bottle down in front of the camera. You couldn't believe how many times they had to redo the scenes for a commercial, especially for one where neither of the actors had lines. But you sat and watched as a shirtless Kylo passionately kissed the neck of the actress, held her in a loving embrace, and melted each and every time his eyes briefly met yours. Whether it be running his hands over the woman's thighs and midsection, or simply standing and waiting between shots, whenever he caught you staring back at him, at his near perfect body hiding behind a towel that barely concealed everything he had to offer, lust burned through your mind and body like a wildfire.

It was so strange to think that while Kylo was getting paid to pretend to be affectionate with another woman, Hannah was being far more affectionate with Hux behind his back. What Kylo was doing was acting. Although his incredible acting skills made the show convincing enough, you had seen how much he loved Hannah and nothing compared to that. You knew Kylo would walk away from this set without another thought of this other actress. Hannah, on the other hand, was far from as innocent as Kylo was. As everyone wrapped everything up and began packing up for the Thanksgiving break, Kylo and the actress both disappeared and quickly reappeared from the fitting room off to your right. He walked back over fully dressed, pulling his jacket closed around him and waving at Terry who was hurrying from the set to catch his flight. You stood to meet him, couldn't repress your smile as he eventually wandered back over to you.

"That was great," You exclaimed as you beamed up at him. "Never been on a set before, and your acting was amazing as always!" Kylo chuckled at you, reached into his jacket pocket and jingled his keys.

"You don't have to flatter me, Clo," He said, a look of pride flashing across his face. "But, thank you for accompanying me. It was nice having someone I know supporting me. I didn't feel so out of place." He confessed. You were elated to hear that your presence had put him at ease during his shoot because that was the plan all along. To support him, even when he seemed to be seducing you without even knowing it.

"No problem, boss. No problem at all," You said with a confident nod of your head. Kylo once again lightly placed his fingertips on your shoulders and began steering you toward the door.

"So, are you still up to having dinner with us this evening?" He asked as he held the door open for you to step into the long hallway back to the lobby. "Han's making it all. A big fat turkey, baked mac and cheese, homemade cranberry sauce. She says you're invited to have as much or as little as you'd like." You walked by his side as you weighed the option again. It still seemed safe as Kylo would be there to protect you, and truth be told you were looking forward to spending more time with him. Besides, maybe if Hannah and Hux saw you spending time with Kylo without revealing their secret they would be less inclined to threaten you.

"How can I say no to Hannah's amazing cooking?" You grinned at him. He grinned back at you, clearly proud of his wife and her skills as well. You were still nervous, but you reminded yourself that, at the very least, you'd get some good food. Hannah wouldn't stoop as low as to poison you with Kylo in the room with her. You were sure of that, and you wanted nothing more than to continue supporting Kylo for as long as you could.
