We trained for weeks, and Alexia was becoming more and more powerful. It came easy to her, she was natural, and she flowed with such concentration such power. She looked so beautiful. She made me feel ways I couldn't understand. I was attached and apart of me KMEW it was wrong, but apart of me didn't care.

Alexia said they were coming, she could feel it. She knew now, after talking to like that her dreams were being shared by her sister, they both had these that's why she could see Kylo and Kya and we could only assume Kya could see Alexia and Luke, we had to move.

We decided we'd sleep for tonight, head out first thing in the morning, it was a hard life to live but until we could defeat the first order it's all we had. While Luke and a media trained in the courtyard, I was finished and I laid on the grass and look at the clouds. This was the only peace I would have for a while, I could feel it.

When Luke told me to train with Alexia it was then I could see her power, she's improved so much and it was such a short amount of time. She parried all of my attacks, but I learned off of her and Luke as well. Our lightsabers clashed and Luke praised her improvement. But there was something wrong, she was hiding from me.

I sat in my room, brushing my hair out it was longer than it looked. I was exhausted, leaving tomorrow had me anxious as well. Where would we go? At least we were with Luke, he would know what to do. Alexia walked in, tired out but well trained. I turned to her and she froze, she rarely ever saw me with my hair down. Her cheeks turned red and she stared at me for a moment, I stood up and walked to her, smiling.

"What is it?" I wrapped my arms around her neck and looked into her beautiful blue eyes. It's been so long since I've showed her affection. She hesitated, but rested her hands on my waist.

"What's... Um..." She stuttered and I laughed a little, kissing her gently. Alexia kissed back slowly, hesitantly. I could feel her worry. 'I'm not supposed to be attached' she thought... And I pulled back a little. 'Fuck it' and she held me tighter, tangling her fingers into my hair.

I couldn't express how much I missed her, from all this time we finally just got to be together. And as much as I shouldn't be attached, I needed her, every part of her, her mind her strength. The physicality. The dim light lit up her glistening skin and I ran my hand softly across her collarbone, she trembled and grabbed my face, kissing me roughly, intimately. It only felt this way with her. The heat of her skin against mine, the shortness of breath, none of this Would mean anything with anyone else.

I ran my hands on her sides as she exhaled a shakey breath, kissing gently on my jaw, then down my neck, then my collarbones. She shook, I shook, we shook together. She held me tightly, running her hands down my back. This wasn't the way I knew, this wasn't the way she knew either but it was what felt right.

We laid together between the blankets with our arms wrapped around each other, I felt so close to her in this moment as we looked into each other's eyes. She brushed my hair behind my ear and held my cheek. It felt like electricity running through my entire body as she touched me. I thought I'd never be like this, not with anyone. But God Alexia, there was something about her. I ran my fingertips gently across the skin of her shoulder now and she kissed my lips one more time.

"I love you" I breathed. And her eyes widened slightly. She held me closer, our skin touching.

I woke up when the sun shone in my face through the window. My hair tangled and all over my face. I stretched out, smiled and turned to face her. My stomach dropped and I felt sick when the side of my bed was empty. I already knew what happened, but I spotted the note at the side of the table. I picked it up and with shaking hands I opened it.. She couldn't do this to me again, she couldn't!

It read:

"Don't come after me"
