Chapter 23. Sick

God i'm sorry its been so long. I updated all my stories tonight so hopefully that's better. I'm going to spend the rest of the night writing to catch up. Please enjoy this chapter and i love you guys <3

"God, I'm gonna miss you." You kissed Kylo fervently.

"I'm going to miss you too. I will send you holo messages as frequently as I can." He eagerly kissed you again and parted. He sighed. "Leo, come on," He called for Leo and he ran out of his room. You and Leo were going with Kylo to the launch station to see him off. You held Leo's hand as you walked through to the ship. Kylo had his mask on and was walking with his commander strut. When you reached your destination you quickly gave Kylo another hug.

"Be safe please." You couldn't see his face but you knew he could see yours.

"I will." He promised. Leo jerked forward and gave Kylo a hug. Kylo flinched but let him proceed.

"Ill miss you...Dad." Leo said hesitantly. You wished you could see Kylo's face, he was most likely crying.

"Be good, Leo." He said, and left to board the ship. You grabbed Leo's hand again and took him back to the quarters. You both ate in silence and you read him a book before heading off to do some meditating.

Several days went by without any word from Kylo. Finally, in the middle of the night, your holo pad beeped loudly. You woke up and scrambled toward it. The glowing hologram poured out as Kylo appeared in front of you. You sighed in relief as you noticed he looked no different than when he left. The hologram however, was glitchy. It crackled in some places and you sometimes could not even see Kylo. 

"(Y/N), I have to keep this short. Our ships power is being kept at low to conserve it. I wont be able to send you many messages." His form faltered and you struggled to see him. "I love you and miss you. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't wish I were with you and Leo." You gasped as the hologram cut out for several seconds. "-Care of yourself. Also I-" It cut out completely and you slammed your head against the bed in frustration. You were already awake so you kept yourself busy by painting and reading all night. In the morning Leo seemed disappointed that you weren't more energized. 

"Mom come on! We get to go fight Phasma! Aren't you excited?" He tugged on your arm and you gave him a weak smile. You hadn't seen Phasma since...the event. You made a vow to yourself that you would pretend it never happened and that everything was normal.

You entered the training room and Phasma was already there. She stood with her back to you and Leo while she bound her hands in wraps. When she turned around your stomach sunk. Across her neck and collarbone were large purple and green bruises. When she walked toward you it was obvious she was in terrible pain. Your eyes were wide and your mouth open. Leo broke the silence. 

"Phasma what happened?! Did you get in a fight? Did you win? Are they dead?" He asked and ran to her. She brushed a strand of hair from his face and looked at you. 

"Something like that." She smiled at him. She took him to the side and gave him a few tools to practice his force skills on. Then she moved to the sparring pad with you. You both maintained a stance and she threw the first punch. You dodged quickly and kicked upward. 

"Did Kylo do that?" You asked as your knee connected with her hip. If it hurt she made no sign of it. She swung her arm around in an attempt to put you in a head lock, which you dodged.

"Yes." She said simply. Her movements were staggered, as if she was hesitating before each turn. You quickly crouched low as her fist went toward your face. 

"I'm sorry, I didn't ask him to do that." You apologized and she nodded. 

"I'm aware." She said flatly.

"Does it still hurt?" You asked and you kicked her side with less force than you usually would. She stopped fighting and looked you in the eye. Pain coursed through her, but not the physical kind.

"No. It doesn't hurt as much as my pride. I don't want to talk about it, okay? I want to pretend I never did anything and I want to pretend I don't feel anything! Can we please just fight and not talk?" She asked and her voice raised an octave with each sentence. You stomach hurt and you felt woozy. You were so sad for her. You didn't want any of this to happen. Tears welled in your eyes and you felt sick. 

"I'm really sorry Phasma. You have to understand I-" You stopped. Worry crossed her face. You looked over and Leo was staring at the both of you. 

"(Y/N) Are you okay?" She asked and stepped toward you. You put a hand to your head. You felt faint. 

"No." You looked at her. "I think I need to go to the med bay." You stepped toward her and suddenly your legs gave out. 

"(Y/N)!" Phasma jumped forward and caught you before you toppled to the ground. "(Y/N)?! Whats wrong?!" She brushed hair from your face. Leo was suddenly next to you. He looked terrified and he was shaking. 

"Mom?" He asked quivering. Your vision blacked out as you felt yourself being pulled away.
