The first thing Rey did was to step out of Hux's car when the three of them finally arrived at Chandrila's city. They were stuck in traffic late that night so Rey took the opportunity to walk home instead. "And don't you dare follow me, Plutt!" She warned him almost yelling before slamming the car's door angrily. 

"Do we follow her?" Hux then asked Plutt who sneered at the fiery girl. "She's walking away from us with that attitude of hers." 

The blobfish looking man wanted to make the girl pay for the way she always treated him. It was Kylo Ren's fault that Rey became this feisty. Plutt hated Ren more than the girl, though. "No. Let her go this time. Sooner or later she'll be back at the club."

Hux gave him a quizzical look, "How are you so sure about it?"

"C'mon, Mr. Hux. I got my ways." He replied smirking maliciously. "Both of us have a grudge against Ren and in the end, he'll pay." 

They turned to look at Rey who was walking far ahead already planning their next move.



Kylo drove back to the city searching everywhere for Rey. He needed to find Hux's car and take back the woman he loved. The wealthy businessman spent hours trying to find her with any luck whatsoever. He tried to phone her but Rey wasn't answering either. "Answer the phone, dammit!" he cursed, taking shortcuts and driving insanely around the streets of Chandrila. 

After so many failed calls, Kylo went back to his pent house and had the urge to trash the whole place. He felt miserable, empty and very enraged. Perhaps hurting himself would alleviate the anger consuming him at that moment. Even after she lied to him all this time her presence would calm him down, gave him some sort of peace. There was only one solution for his problems; alcohol. He then headed to the minibar at the corner of the living room and poured himself a glass of whiskey. As he drank the hot heavy liquor, Kylo remembered the first time they made passionate love in that same room. It was on that rainy night were both discovered their intimacy.

He loved this girl like no other woman before. Hux might have failed on his attempt to frame him but still took the dancer away from him. Kylo thought he did succeed in breaking them apart. "Why, Rey?" He asked himself, drinking from his fourth glass of whiskey. 

Sitting on the floor with his back on the sofa, Kylo had the liquor bottle on his side while drinking the pain away. It was a quiet night at home. Drinking every day was going to be his cure from now on since it will make him forget for a while.

The way her warm skin felt under his hands, the smell of her chestnut colored hair, those tempting lips being devoured by his... Brushing those thoughts away angrily, he stood up and went upstairs to his room. There was the bed where their entwined bodies slept. Then, he walked towards the bathroom and contemplated the tub where both bathe together. 

"Why can't I despise you?" He wondered, gripping the glass tightly. 

Kylo wanted to call her phone again but instead continued drinking until he passed out on the bedroom's floor. Strangely, tears grew full in his shut eyes.



Rey walked back to the apartment sobbing and hurting, braving the cold breeze of the night. She wanted to disappear, never be seen again. The phone was turned off as Kylo kept calling and sending her messages. This made her feel worse. Obviously, he was going to insult her after knowing the truth of her past with Hux. Rey wouldn't be strong enough to listen to the man she loved fully hating on her.
