Reylo - Unlikely Love

The End

I HAVE FOUR VERY IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENTS TO MAKE, ONE OF WHICH IS A CONTEST.

I would like to dedicate this emotional chapter to samilovessw She is my Reylo Sister, and I love her so much! We met on Instagram and her account is on point! I hope you enjoy this chapter my reylo sista! :*

The blood dripped from my soaking wet bandages, but I would not quit. Finn, Poe and General Leia told me to stay back, that it was too dangerous. Ben is more important than some stupid wound, I retaliated, making it very clear that I had no intention of waiting to rescue him. Hux's last words echo through my brain as I make my way to the crumbling remains of Star Killer Base. Even from far away the memories and the chaos that ensued play in my head, reminding me of the first time I saw Ben. I never knew how to explain it then, but when he took off his helmet for the first time my heart skipped a beat and I could not help but feel like I had loved this man a long time ago. As my ship touched down on the rocky abyss that Star Killer Base had turned into, I felt a pull in the force, something I only felt when Ben was close by. My feet crumbled beneath it's surface as I made my way to what was left of the interrogation room. It was not hard to find, most of the base had been blowed open, or ripped in half when the ground started to divide, but by some strange miracle, the interrogation room was still whole. Walking in, the memories start to flood back as I look around the room.

"Took you long enough" Hux spat out from behind me, causing my skin to crawl.

"Where's Ben?" I demand, getting straight to the point, trying to keep my tone even.

"Oh, you'll get him, I just don't know if he's going to be breathing"

"You monster" I spat at him, my heart pounding against my ribs, "What did I ever do to you?"

"You? WHAT DID YOU DO?" He yelled back sarcastically, walking closer to me, "YOU TOOK HIM, FROM ME"

"HE LEFT ON HIS OWN ACCORD" I shot back.

"BECAUSE HE FELL FOR YOU" Hux retaliated, the silence that follow was tense. It was clear why Hux was so hateful, Ben never loved him the way he wanted to be loved.

"I could never control that" I reply, trying to calm him down. Somehow, I felt pity for him, I knew the pain he was going through.

"Don't you dare pity me scavenger scum" Hux spat back, he knew that for a brief second he involuntary let his walls down, and now he was scrambling to put them back up again.

"I will never pity you" How could I allow myself to show any pity to this monster? "Give me back Ben" I demand, I have waited long enough.

"See, I don't think you deserve him" He suddenly became calm, yet his tone remained menacing.

"You bastard, I came and found you what more do you want?" anger was beginning to rise inside of me, and I wanted nothing more than to smash his teeth in.

"Fight me, show me some of your fancy Jedi tricks" he mocked me, causing the anger to boil inside of my veins.

"I could do that," I said stepping closer, "Or I could do this" And with that I punched him right in the jaw, my knuckles clashing with his face over and over again as he fell to the ground. It felt good to get my anger out, but I knew I had to stop at one point. Finally I backed off after one last punch, I gazed at my knuckles only to reveal that they were split and bleeding. I rubbed my hand as I took a deep breath, calming myself.

"Now, where's Ben?" I say mocking him tone from earlier.

"There" Hux pointed with a shaking finger. He was too badly hurt to move, serves you right bitch, I thought.
