Loyalties (Armitage Hux X Reader)

Loyalties

You walked down the walkways of The Supremacy, on your way to the throne room for the Supreme Leader had called for you. It was not unusual, being a General in the First Order meant that you had met him a few times, but something felt off this time. You were not force-sensitive but your lover was, but still could not help the feeling deep inside you that begged you to turn tail and run, run so far away that no one would ever find you again and somehow it felt like him.

You and Hux had been lovers for a long time. The two of you started out as friends. When the two of you were Arkanis, you first met him in one of those galas for high ranking officers. You were bored beyond belief, so you decide to go out for some fresh air and you bump straight into him. The two of you start talking that day and become fast friends. He would come and find solace and serenity with you, something that he would never find anywhere else. One day he opened up to you about his abilities with the force, how it disappointed his father and how he would get a beating from him everyday, and you helped him through it all. He knew that no matter what happened, you would always be by his side. So when Armitage was taken away by the Supreme Leader for training, you buried yourself in your studies topping the Academy, and when you left you were offered a job as a General in the First Order, and you readily agreed.

You obviously saw Armitage there again and he was so different from the boy who had left you back on Arkanis. He was confident and authoritative, he commanded respect and fear, but you knew underneath it all he was the same boy for whom you had feelings that had confused for so long. The two of you went back to your friendship, but one late night and way too many drinks than the permissible limit, the two of you ended up in each others arms. The next morning he confessed his undying love for you and the two of you had been together since.

General Kylo Ren, your friend and Armitage's sworn enemy often made fun of the two of you, but it was only lighthearted, it never meant anything, but that did not mean that he did not hate Hux, for how could he not, he had stolen the girl he had pining for such a long time. Kylo had loved you since the first day he saw her when he reported for his position of General along with you. Your fiery attitude and intelligence had lured him like a moth to a flame, but he saw that you were happy with Hux, so he said nothing to you, for that was his first wish, to see you happy. But that did not mean he did not hate Hux, also it did not help that the force-user irritated him at every chance he got, perhaps because he knew of Ren's feelings.

Armitage had recently been very tensed, his training was nearing an and Snoke had been pushing him a lot. He always came back tired and always cuddled with you as he always he did, but there had been something about the way he held you recently, almost like he was afraid of losing you or something. You thought about this and then decided on talking to him about this later an stepped onto the elevator that would take you to the Throne Room. Perhaps after all of this you would tell him about that.

Hux's POV

You were the love of Hux's life and he would kill for you. You were his serenity and the calm in the eye of the storm. He knew he loved you the day you first sat down and patched him up after a particularly intense beating session with his father. You always knew how to react to whatever he said, and honestly he saw a future with you,a family. But there was always a voice at the back of his voice that told him that it was not possible which sounded surprisingly similar to his master, but he always ignored it. And then the nightmares started, in which he would always see you bleeding on to a blood red floor and dying in his arm, and everynight he would hold you tighter. He knew about General Ren's feelings and sometimes he wondered if it was better if you were with Ren instead of him, but he always pushed that thought away and went to find Ren, so that he could disturb him a bit more.

He went to meet with the Supreme Leader in the Throne Room as he always did, right on a time and found General Ren standing there but in a corner. Hux bowed to his master who said " You have grown well. You are stronger than I expected you to be. You have truly improved a lot from the small boy that I found on Arkanis. You have completely finished your training, you just have one last thing left to do" and he paused and before Hux could ask what his final mission was, there was a sound of the elevator door opening and he turned around only to come face to face with you and for someone unknown reason your stomach immediately dropped and for some reason he felt that your life was in danger.
