Striptease Undercover

Confessions under the rain

It was hours later that Rey slowly opened up her eyes, giving a small start when she felt long arms wrapped around her, the length of his body was pressed to her. Rey could feel his breath against the back of her neck as it ruffled her hair gently.

"Go back to sleep," she heard Kylo murmur, "it's too early."

As she was too tired, Rey closed her eyes and went back to sleep.

Kylo woke up to the persistent noise of his cell phone. Muttering a few curse words beneath his breath, he rolled only to find the stripper gone. Instead, it was the shirt Rey wore to sleep last night the one by his side at that moment. He fumbled over the night table until finding his phone and unlocked it to answer.

"What the hell is it?"

There was a brief silence, "Sorry, sir, but I'm calling because it's 10:00 in the morning." Phasma spoke carefully to her boss. "Mr. Dameron had a meeting with you today and wanted to make sure if you were coming to the office."

He then took a glance at the alarm clock on the nightstand. "Tell Poe I will be there soon. Had a rough night but I'm fine. Anything else?"

"No, that will be all. So far things are running normally." Phasma answered audibly eating and sipping something. "See you then, sir."

"Alright," Kylo replied tapping the red button and ending the call. Tossing the phone aside, he sat up, seeing she was nowhere to be found. There was the scent of freshly cooked breakfast penetrating his nostrils. It was making his stomach growl from hunger. Throwing the blankets away, he rose and headed downstairs.

As he descended the spiral staircase the scent of food grew stronger. Rey was not in the living room nor the kitchen area either. Kylo wandered everywhere around the house also making sure things were still in place. Where was she? Could she be back at the club? Thinking about that made him exhale from frustration as he scratched the back of his neck. He entered the kitchen to find an impressive arrangement of breakfast plates. Banana Pancakes, waffles with some topped strawberries, scrambled eggs, and a large hash brown. At least she knows how to cook, he thought. There was a small yellow note glued in the refrigerator's door and Kylo took it in his fingers.

Thanks for all the things you did for me last night.

Because of my stupidity, I got you in trouble with Plutt and his men. This is a battle for me to only fight.

I really did not know how to repay you, so I made you some breakfast and left it on the counter. See you around,

-REY

He took a bite of the hash brown. Rey going back to Plutt was something he did not want. The men over there only saw the beauty as a sexual object for their nasty desires. Kylo was positively sure that Rey was more than an exotic dancer. That she had potential and a bright future ahead. If he could lend her a hand... Finishing the food, he then went back upstairs to get ready for the day. Unbuttoning his shirt, Kylo took it off, revealing his toned torso, and threw it on the floor as he headed to the shower.

Rey was stepping inside the apartment when she found Finn already standing by the door. She blinked at him nervously, felt her pulse get erratic and weak. His eyes widened when he saw the cut on her face. His expression was of terror now and before he could ask anything Rey shot first. "I know, I know what you are going to say. But please, let me explain the whole situation."

He stood there like an idiot, his eyes fixated on Rey's injured cheek. With a nod, he followed Rey to the living room and sat on the couch, side by side. Rey felt embarrassed but Finn was the only person she could tell things. He changed from being terrorized to seriously concerned. "Well? Start by telling me what happened."
