Rekindled - A Kylo Ren & Rey College Story(DISCONTINUED/PERMANENT HIATUS!!)

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

"Mother." Kylo said in surprise. "What are you doing here?"

Leia shoved past him and strode into the room before answering her son's question.

"We need to talk."

"I agree. When did you get here?"

"I arrived this morning after receiving an urgent call from Jessica to come and help out Rey , and to talk some sense into my dumb son."

Kylo tensed, realizing why his mother was there.

"I can explain he pleaded with her. Jessica probably made it sound worse than it actually is."

At those words Leia scoffed in disbelief. "I highly doubt that. I'm so angry with you right now that I could scream."
"What the hell where you thinking doing the stuff you've done recently?"

"To be fair, Rey started this whole mess by lying to me about the baby. If she hadn't, none of this would have happened."

"Would you wake up Ben! Rey is not the problem here, you are! Yes, she may have lied about Satine but she had a pretty good reason for it, the way I see it. And, she didn't tell you to sleep with that woman, you made that decision yourself."

"Rey had suggested that we see other people. I was only trying what she suggested. It's her fault really, if she wouldn't have said it, I never would have slept with Michelle."

Hearing these words, Leia snapped and slapped her son hard across the face. "Will you grow up and start taking responsibility for your own actions. This is why Rey doesn't want anything to do with you, you blame everyone for everything except yourself. You're father and I raised you better then this Ben, we are very disappointed in you."

Kylo scoffed at this. "There's a surprise, you and father are disappointed in me again. If I had a quarter for every time you said that to me, I'd be rich."

"Stop with the drama Ben, I'm right and you know it. Your sister would agree with me to you know?"

"Don't you dare bring Kat into this. Besides Rey and Jessica, she was the only other friend I had when I was a child. Don't go turning her against me like you did everyone else."

Leia sighed in frustration. "You are so damn stubborn, just like your father." You two are more alike than you care to admit."

Kylo turned red with anger at these words. "Don't you EVER compare me to that man. I'm nothing like him. Unlike him I'm going to make something of myself. I won't be some deadbeat pawn broker like him."

Leia slapped him really hard this time. Kylo actually held his cheek after this one, and his face had an imprint from where she had slapped him.

"He wasn't perfect, I'll admit that, but he did his best to do right by us. Don't ever forget some of the sacrifices he made so you could start realizing your dream of being a musician."

"Fine. He did one thing right. Good for him. Where is he these days again?"

"Your impossible. Nothing I say or do is going to get through to you, I can see that now. This is why I'm glad I didn't talk to any other lawyers about your full custody idea. With the way your acting, and the stuff you got up to after you left home, you'd never win the case. Speaking of your actions when you left home, did you tell Rey about that?"

Kylo paled considerably at these words. "No I haven't told her and nor do I plan on telling her. Promise me you won't tell her? I can't lose Satine because of some stupid thing I did in the past.

"Oh don't worry Ben, I'm not going to tell her. Believe it or not, I do want you to spend time with your daughter. I also firmly believe that it's up to you to tell her that news."

Kylo nodded, glad that his mother would keep his secret.

"I have one more thing to tell you before I head to my hotel. I think it'll make you happier. Your sister Kat has decided she isn't happy at Coruscant college and wants to transfer here at Christmas time. I've already helped her get the paperwork started."

"Kat's coming here? Let me guess, to keep an eye on me right? Why else would she leave a good college like Coruscant?"

"Not everything revolves around you son. She misses you and would love to be closer to you here at Naboo college. She'd like to see Rey as well. And no, I didn't tell her about the baby. That's up to you when you decide to tell her that."

"I'm glad you respect me enough not to tell my sister of my stupid mistakes. It'll be nice to have her here, even if she ends up hating me later."

"She won't hate you and neither do I. We love you Ben and just want to see you live a responsible, adult life."

"Whatever. Do you want me to drive you to your hotel?"

"That won't be necessary, I have a rental car. And besides, I need to go to the Dean's office and give her a cheque."

Kylo looked at her with a frown. "A cheque? What for?"

"I figured to make things up to Rey and to make her life a little easier, I'd pay for her daycare for the year."

"Thank you. I know Rey will appreciate that, and so do I." He looked down at his shoes for a moment before looking back up at his mother. I know I haven't been a great son, and I know I can't fix all my mistakes, but I'm going to try to be a better person. Someone you and everyone can be proud of."

"Those are big words Ben. I hope you mean them. If you ever need anything I'm less than a phone call away."

"I'll keep that in mind. How long are you going to be in town? I'd like to take you to lunch or something before you leave. Maybe to that place grandfather was always raving about."

"I'm staying until Sunday. I'd love to do that with you. Maybe Rey and Satine could come with us if they want to." She gave him a kiss on the cheek then left.

Alone once again Kylo thought about what he and his mother had just discussed. As much as he loathed to admit it, she had made some good points. The only thing was, is how does he go about getting Rey to forgive him? He worried his actions were unforgivable, he had to try though, he wasn't going to lose Satine because of his stupid actions.

"I'll make it up to her if it's the last thing I do." He thought to himself.

To Be Continued....

A/N- I had a hard time writing this chapter. I rewrote it twice before I finally found a direction I liked.

I decided that Leia wasn't going to be a total b***h with her son, she loves him, even if he does do stupid things. It would be out of character for her to totally hate him. I did add the slaps though because he did deserve those.

I hope you don't mind that I added a sister in for Ben. A new reader of mine suggested it and I liked the idea so I went with it. We will see her a little later on.

Also, we discovered that Kylo has a secret he's keeping from everyone about his life after he moved out. What is it? We will find out later on.

Special thanks to katbaggins82903 for the suggestion of a sister for Kylo. I really appreciate it and hope you are happy I used the idea. You'll like her when I bring her in, I promise!!

And once again thank you to all my fabulous readers for reading this story. I hope you liked this chapter and will continue to support it and me in the future. As usual please leave your thoughts on this chapter!! Also if you have any suggestions on what you'd like to see next please let me know!!
