This will have a few POV changes so just be mindful of who's POV you're reading x. I don't usually have POV changes this early in the book, but I just want to set everything out and that way it can introduce the characters a bit better!

•Ben•

You were so beautiful.

Ben couldn't help but gaze down at you fast asleep in their bed. All he could think about was how beautiful you were. Your gorgeous skin seemed to glow underneath the early morning sunrise. Ben took in how your hair framed your pretty little face, how your lips were parted slightly as soft snores left your chest.

You were all his.

It was just before six in the morning. Ben didn't have to wake up for another hour. But he couldn't sleep. He already had got himself ready for his second day of work. The thought of his brother being your boss was eating away at him.

Kylo was bad news.

Everywhere he went, trouble followed.

From Ben's memory, he knew Kylo was a trouble maker. He would often get into fights with kids at school, he would steal things and overall, just cause trouble.

But, nonetheless, Ben loved his brother. Ben adored him. Sure, Kylo was an asshole, and the two of them would have their differences. They fought like normal brothers did. But Ben still loved him.

Kylo would often do something stupid, and Ben would take the blame. But it only worked for a brief period of time when they were younger. That was before Kylo started losing control.

At the age of fifteen he was already smoking and drinking without their parents knowing. Ben didn't know how Kylo was getting ahold of cigarettes and alcohol, and Ben became increasingly concerned when he began finding different types of drugs hidden in Kylo's room.

Ben was terrified.

He hated seeing his brother in the state he was constantly putting himself in.

So he had to tell his parents.

Needless to say, Kylo wasn't happy.

A soft sigh fell from your lips, and Ben couldn't help but smile. He loved you so much. And now, he was worried sick about you being in the same place as his brother.

He took a shaky breath and exited the bedroom, fishing through his pocket for his phone.

He knew his parents would already be awake. They barely slept.

He wasted no time in dialling his mother's number. After two rings, Leia answered.

"Ben? Is everything alright?" Her soft voice came through the phone.

Ben swallowed thickly. "It's Kylo, mom." He sat on the couch, pinching his brow with his thumb and forefinger.

The line was silent. He knew Leia was just as shocked as he was. The three of them honestly thought Kylo had died. Ben would always work himself up with the thought of Kylo being dead in a ditch or an old decrepit house from an overdose.
