You sneer at the control panel as you press a big green button, sliding the door open. You step through the doorway, a wave of cold air blasting against your face.
Ben is standing next to the bed, looking down at the crumpled blankets. His mask is on them and it shines in the dim light. The room is freezing, and you start to shiver slightly. You realize he's breathing heavily; he's literally panting. You walk over to him slowly, rubbing your arms to stay warm.
You glance down and notice he's holding his lightsaber.
"B-... Kylo?" You quietly call out to him. He whips around and attempts to force-push you back, but you respond instantly and push him back.
The two of you stand there for a moment, staring at each other, pressing against each other with the invisible strength. Neither of you had moved due to your force techniques being equal in strength.

"... You surprised me," he said quietly, letting his hand drop.

You let yours fall to your side as you sniff. "I can tell..." you say while hiding a small smirk. It made you slightly eager, knowing that you could match his power in the force.
He lets out a long sigh and steps towards you.
"Where were you?" he asks, looking at the floor. You smile, suddenly realizing that he was worried about you.
You reach up and tug on his scarf. "I walked around the ship," you laugh and smile, "it's really, really big."
Ben reaches up and takes off his mask. He has a smirk on his face as he puts it on the bed. "Yes, it is big," he replies, looking down at you.
When your eyes meet, you feel a sudden flush of emotion fill your body. It overcomes you so quickly you feel your knees begin to shake. You feel weak. Your core, the strongest, unbreakable center, has become sensitive and unstable. You feel your eyesight go blurry around the edges. You fall forward and Ben catches you, enclosing you with his arms.
"Are you alright?" a panicked Ben asks gently. You pull your heavy arms up and wrap them around his waist. You look up at him and rest your chin on his chest. You smile and close your eyes.
"Yeah, I'm great," you say quietly. You feel him start to softly stroke your hair and relax.
"Alright," he answers.
You reach up and put your hands on his soft cheeks. You study his face, taking note of what has changed since he left. Some baby fat he had on his cheeks was gone, his lips were more plump, his nose seemed less pointed, his brow more distinct. You stand on your tiptoes and kiss the tip of his nose.
He closed his eyes and smiled a true smile. You saw blush rise and rest on his face.
"Oh, my dear Benny... I've missed you so much..." you say, sadness rippling in your tone.
His eyes open and look into yours. You can see the triggered flame of anger begin to spark in them. You know you shouldn't have called him that, but you couldn't resist. It was almost necessary to say it.
You press your face against his chest, the soft dark fabric giving off his distinct essence. You are still, hoping his madness won't get the best of you in this moment you share.

He softly pets your hair again, and you know you have succeeded in not completely spoiling the scene.
You press your ear to his chest. His heart is pounding faster than yours, and you bite your lip as not to giggle.
You pull away and look at him. You feel a depression of happiness suddenly in you. You hate this. He is so far lost. You think of all the things he has done and might have done to get where he is. You feel your heart dip and sting. This hard, nearly emotionless man has changed so much from the soft, shut-off boy you once knew.
You feel tears prick your eyes. Bens' expression suddenly changed into a worried state.
"What's wrong? Y/n?" he reaches for you, but you pull away. You just... Can't touch him. You feel guilt begin to crawl all over you and consume you. You remind yourself again and again that it wasn't your fault that he was taken. You couldn't have done anything. You did your best.
You wipe away the tears and pull his face to yours, and you kiss him.
He is startled at your sudden action until he pulls your body to his. He begins to kiss you back with soft passion. You put your hands on his chest as you relax into the his reply to your kiss.
You feel him pull his lips from yours. You look up at him with dazed eyes.
He is swift to press his lips to yours again, and with more passion, as he pulls you up closer to him with little effort. You wrap your arms around his strong neck as he releases you from the kiss to stare into your eyes.
He smiles at you.

"I love you, y/n."

The statement hits you like a hurricane. Once you comprehend what he said, you blush and smile widely.
"I love you too," you say with a laugh at the end of your reply. He smiles and hugs you, pressing his face to the crook of your neck. You laugh and smile, holding him.
"I've loved you for so long," he says into your shoulder. You sniff as you feel tears of a different type form at the edges of your eyes. You can't say anything because you know it will cause you to cry. You simply nod your head and hug him tightly.
He looks at you.
"Please... Stay by my side. I don't ever want to lose you again..." he says. You know he's become extremely emotion, more than you knew he could be.
You put a hand on his cheek.
"I'm here now, and I'm staying with you. You're not going to lose me," you say without hesitation.

He smiles and kisses you again.
