Reylo AUs

Road Trip

Authors Note: image above was created by multifandom_bxtch and she said I could write a road trip AU based off of it. So here I am XD

The small wet drops of rain landed on Rey's face with a soundless drop and cascaded down. Her fingers wiped at the drops mindlessly as they kept coming. The suitcase sat still on the ground and her backpack was slung loosely on her shoulder.

Her eyes squinted, scanning the road ahead. They soon wandered over to her phone, the screen still dark.

"He better pull up or I'll —" she paused as an old vintage van came into view. The driver scrolled down the window and smiled. "You coming sweetheart?"

"What did I say about calling me that!" Rey groaned before swinging the passenger door open. "What's this garbage anyway?"

He sighed, looking down then at her. "My car is getting repairs and it's too small for a road trip."

"Oh okay." Rey looked down at her phone once again. "Where the hell are Poe and Finn?"

"They're not coming."

"What?" Her voice was quiet.

"Last minute plans, they said."

"Oh." Rey looked down, avoiding his gaze.

"It's just us now."

She scowled, looking out the window. Her and Ren weren't the best of friends. Poe and Finn were basically the glue that kept them together and prevented chaos between the two. Without them, they would have major problems.

"Oh yay, one week with you." Her words came out harsher than she expected.

"It won't be that bad, sweetheart."

"Don't call me that!"

"Whatever."

"Jerk."

"Scavenger."

"Asshole."

"Baby."

"Prick."

"Weakling."

"Monster."

"What'd you call me?"

"A monster, cause that's what you are!" She turned her back so that the only thing she could see would be the scenery outside and not the sad look on Ren's face.

••{•}••

"Where are we now?" Rey asked her voice quiet. The two hadn't spoken for a few hours. He didn't answer for a moment, his gaze focused only on the road ahead.

"South Carolina."

"Oh okay." 

She turned back around, facing the window once again.

Kylo glanced at her only for a moment before his eyes found themselves ahead once again.

After hours of driving they arrived in Virginia.

Rey's eyes fluttered opened and closed, she yawned glancing at Kylo. He looked at her, his eyes cold.

"Sleep."
