Heartbreak Hotline • Reylo AU

Chapter 3

Kylo and Rey pulled up at the house and from inside the car they could already hear the blaring music and excited shouts.

"We're here." Kylo stated looking at Rey through the front mirror. She looked nervous, tugging at the end of her braid and constantly picking at her outfit. He looked at her reassuringly. "Don't worry you'll be fine."

"I hope so." Rey went to open the door. "Are you coming?" She asked stepping out. Ren shook his head. "It's better if you do this on your own."

"But what if I mess up?"

"You won't. Here how about this?" Ren handed her a piece of paper. "Type my number into your phone and if you need help or want to leave, call me."

"Okay but are you sure you don't want to come?"

"I'm sure, now go!"

Rey nodded and got out of the car. Kylo gave her a reassuring smile before driving off. She watched as his car left from her sight and sighed. Rey was all alone now. She headed to the wide open front door. Two jocks (most likely Poe's teammates) held the door open and smiled as she walked in. "Damn." One of them muttered shaking his head. Rey bit her lip to keep from smirking, Kylo had done a good job.

The air smelled like sweat and beer. Crowds of students were dancing around, or just talking. Rey walked around awkwardly searching for Finn and Poe.

"Rey!"

She spun around startled as a arm wrapped around her shoulder. "Hey Poe!" She smiled and self consciencely touched her hair.

"Come on let's dance!" Poe led her through the crowd to where Finn was and the three of them started to dance and socialize.

Kylo sat quietly in his car listening to the radio. As he sat he glanced down at his phone, not notification so Rey must be doing fine. After a couple of minutes he decided to oh back home.

When he arrived the house was silent so his parents were most likely out. He made his way to his room and slammed the door shut. Kylo sat down at his desk and pulled out his computer and mic, he had an incoming call.

"You're on air with Kylo Ren on Heartbreak Hotline, how may I help you?"

"I need help."

Kylo could barely hear the persons voice. It was a guy, yes but his voice was muffled and the sounds of loud music and shouting filled the back ground.

"With what?"

"I'm in love with my best friend. But I don't know if he feels the same way about me."

"Okay, go on."

"I mean sometimes it seems like he does and sometimes it doesn't. To make matters worse he told me that my other best friend liked me. I don't know if it's true and if it is I don't know how to tell her I'm not interested."

"Uh huh," Kylo nodded in understanding as he listened to the caller speak. "For the friend that likes you I suggest not leading them on it acting flirty first of all. Second of all confront them about it to see if it's true, if it is let them down easy. Be nice about it and not harsh. As for your crush tell him, I'm pretty sure he likes you too."

"Thank you so much!"

Kylo smiled before ending the call.
