After the attack against the rebel forces, Kylo Ren had stopped meddling in the affairs of others. He had been neglecting his duty as the new supreme leader and was constantly alone. For the past few days he had only been able to think of one thing...
Rey's p.o.v ---------------- I stared up at Ben with glossy eyes, wondering what he felt in that moment. I didn't know if he felt the same way I did, but I knew that he had felt something.
His dark eyes stared down into mine as a single tear slid down his cheek. I was right. I was shocked for a moment. I didn't think he was capable of crying.Whatever he felt that had caused him to cry I had no idea, but whatever it was it deeply affected him.
I knew that eventually one of us would have to say something, so I decided that it would be me. I walked a step closer to Ben as he looked at me with both curiosity and confusion. "Ben......" I knew that I had started to cry as soon as I said his name. Something inside of me opened up whenever I said it, or whenever I thought about him. "I need to know what that was. What did I just see?" At this point I had started to break. My voice was cracking and I couldn't bear to listen to the silence he was giving me any longer.
He looked down at me with fear in his eyes, and I realized that he knew why I had seen what I did, he just didn't want to say it out loud. I looked into his eyes and saw resolve as he started to walk towards me. We were only inches apart, and I could feel his breath against my face.
"Rey......" He was scared, and so was I. I somehow knew by the look in his eyes that he had seen the same thing I just saw only moments ago. H took a deep breath as he started to speak. "When I was a child, my father told me something; something that would change my life." I was even more curious now than I was before at the mention of those words.
"He told me that I would fall in love with the prime Jedi." The prime Jedi? I squinted my eyes, not knowing what he was talking about. "Of course I didn't believe him." He laughed, not out of joy, but out of sadness. He was about to tell me something I didn't want to hear. I could tell. "I had no life, no purpose in it. I was nobody." I felt his heart break as he spoke about himself, and to my suprise, my heart had started to break too. I felt how he felt, and I hated it. He must have been so lonely. He had no friends, no life, nobody to count on when he needed it the most.
"I never found out how he knew about my future. He never told me." He looked down at the ground as he spoke about his father, knowing all too well that he never would know. "Rey......" I saw another tear fall from his eye as he said my name. He was about to break, just as I almost had. "I have so much more to tell you."
