---Nova POV----

After the comms conference with Blastech, you grabbed your dress for the First Order Annual Dinner,as it was a black tie event. You had packed a small bag with anything else you would need, and headed toward the Night Buzzard where you'd meet Kylo and the Knights. Trudgen and Ap'lek were trailing behind you, having gone one at a time and grabbed their own bags. There had been several comments about you and Vicrul and your shower quickie,which you joked off with them. You had been slightly worried how it would change things between you and the Knights, but it seemed they really didn't care. What you each chose to do, was yours alone, and they didn't judge one another for it.

You climbed aboard the Night Buzzard,and put your bag and dress in the quarters you had used previously. You found that someone had cleaned it up, gotten new bed linens, and made it more... 'Nova'. You smiled, and sat on the edge of the bed,this was so sweet. You put your dress and bag away, and headed back to the common area. 

"Which of you had a hand in my quarters?"

The Knights, barring Kuruk who was readying the Buzzard for take off, and Kylo all looked at you. The most dangerous men in the Galaxy, and they all looked like sheepish little boys caught in the act of something naughty.

"We all did it. Thought that seeing as you're gonna be doing more with us, and stuff, that you needed your own quarters properly," Cardo shrugged. 

"Yeah." The others agreed. 

"You like it then, Major?" Kylo asked, hisface genuinely concerned that they hadn't done a good job. They were not the men to do anything of the sort, but they had wanted Nova to feel welcome aboard the Buzzard. She was Kylo's apprentice now, forall intents and purposes. She was their friend, and they didn't have woman aboard so hadn't had to consider a space for one before.

"It's probably the sweetest thing anyone has ever done for me. So I owe you guys. When we get back, I will cook for you all. My quarters. Movie and meal night. I'll do 3 courses and everything. I may even play barmaid and keep your beers filled."

"There'll be dessert right?" Trudgen asked hopefully. "Like lots of it?"

"Yes.I will cook a feast."

"I'm in," Kylo broke into a smile,"The last food we had that you cooked was the best I think I've ever eaten."

Everyone settled in for the ride to the Steadfast. It would take a few hours. The Knights went over their plan, and watching Holodramas. Kylo worked a little, and you listened to music after curling your hair and putting the curls in clips to set. It would make getting ready go a lot faster. Kylo came and sat beside you, and you looked up at him. 

"When we get aboard. We get ready and head straight for the Dinner. Keep Pryde and Hux busy while there so they don't wonder what the Knights are upto. But don't spend too much time with Pryde. And don't tell him anything about your new life, or anything you remember or have found out,okay?"

"Yes, Commander." You nod, giving him a small smile,"That's not a problem. I never told Pryde much about my life anyway, or wanted him around me much. He won't be suspicious about my being standoffish."

Kylo chuckled, "Works well then." He then looked at you, and opened his mouth, as if to say something, and then closed it.

"What?" You frown, "You were going to say something."

He huffed in amusement, "I was going to ask how you were doing. You know, after your... Post work out, work out?"

"Oh for the love of the Maker." You face palm,"You are all way too close to one another."
