Star Wars Imagines

Story Time (Kylo Ren x Reader)

"I wish you were coming with me," you groaned as you changed into your official attire.

"I do too, Y/N," Kylo frowned. If he weren't so busy himself he would have certainly accompanied you to the meeting. "But all the Knights are going with you. They'll keep you safe."

"I know. But I want you to keep me safe," you pouted as you handed him your necklace.

He gestured for you to turn. You moved so your back was facing him and tilted your neck downwards.

"Oh, cold!" You shuddered slightly as Kylo's fingers danced over your skin.

"Sorry love," he let out a small laugh. When he finished putting the necklace on you his hand lingered. He moved one around to cup your chin and gently ushered you turn back and face him. You gave him a sad smile as your gazes met.

Kylo sighed, reaching down to kiss your forehead, "You'll be back in four days... both of you." Kylo added as his hands moved down to cradle your stomach.

You put your own hand on top of his and gently stroked it with your thumb, "Four days is a long time for a pregnant Senator without her husband."

Kylo quickly placed a kiss to your stomach before looking back at you, "I know it is, Y/N. If it gets to be too much for you, say the word and my men will escort you right back home."

You nodded, but knew that you wouldn't do that. Your might be pregnant, but you wouldn't let that get in the way of your work as a Senator.

"I'll have the Knights meet us in the Hangar in 5 minutes," Kylo said as he threw your overnight bag over his shoulder.

"I wouldn't eat that if I were you— unless you want an upset stomach."

You smiled gratefully at the Knight who had just whispered in your ear, "Thank you."

You scraped the food to one side of your plate before looking around. It was the first day of your diplomatic mission and the host planet was holding a banquet in honour of your arrival. You and the Knights had all been seated at one round table, and ballroom was scattered with tens more, each filled with important dignitaries you would no doubt be acquainted with during the meetings.

"So... How long have you all been Knights?" You asked when the conversation at the table had lulled. They looked to one another before one responded.

"The same as your husband—ma'am," he added. Some of the other Knights nodded their head in agreement while the rest each gave you their own response.

"And how about you, Senator Y/N?"

"How long have I been a Knight?" You laughed.

"No, no," the Knight also laughed, "How long have you been a Senator?"

You mulled it over before replying, "Almost three years now."

"Is that how you met Kylo Ren?" One Knight asked, "As a Senator, I mean?"

You smiled and nodded as you recalled the day you met your future husband. "My first task as Senator was to go to the First Order and meet with the Commander."

"Were you scared?"

"Terrified. When I was first told about it, I nearly resigned on the spot," you admitted, earning a laugh from the Knights, "But I wouldn't be here now if I had done that. I just wish our first encounter wasn't so embarrassing," you said.
