Star Wars Imagines

Congratulations(Kylo Ren)

This was inspired by Congratulations from Hamilton. Enjoy!

Kylo Ren was walking down the hall. TN-6653, the leader of the TN squad of stormtroopers, walked up to him and removed her helmet, revealing long, jet black curls, a pale, freckled face, and green eyes. She smiled at Kylo Ren. "TN-6653," Kylo Ren said, nodding. She shoved him against the wall and pressed a kiss to his mouth. At that moment, (Y/N) walked down the hall with her half brother, Armitage Hux. She watched, frozen, as she thought she saw Kylo Ren cheating on her(though that was not what was happening). When TN-6653 broke off the kiss, she smiled. Kylo Ren looked shocked. "See you around," she said to him. When she saw (Y/N), she nodded and said, "Captain." Then she walked away with a smirk on her face. Tears welled up in (Y/N)'s eyes. Kylo Ren saw her, and his eyes widened. "(Y/N)," he said, taking a step toward his girlfriend. (Y/N) burst into tears and ran down the hall. Armitage marched up to TN-6653. "You're demoted," he told her. "Inform TN-6654 that he is now the leader of the TN squad." Armitage looked over his shoulder at Kylo Ren. Later, he mouthed, then hurried off to find and comfort (Y/N).

Hours later, Kylo Ren was sitting in his quarters, staring at his table. He heard a knock on his door, and when he opened it, Armitage was there. "General Hux," Kylo Ren said, surprised. Armitage gave him a cold, dark smile.

"Can we confer, sir," he asked. Kylo Ren nodded and opened the door wider so Armitage could enter. Armitage walked in. When Kylo Ren was facing him, Armitage slapped him. "Congratulations," he growled. "You have invented a new kind of stupid, a 'damage you can never undo' kind of stupid. An 'open all the cages in the zoo' kind of stupid. 'Truly, you didn't think this through' kind of stupid." Kylo Ren frowned.

"General," he asked, and Armitage glared at him.

"Let's review. You took my sister's heart, which she's given to few, maybe only you, and you smashed it by kissing a squad leader who is now demoted. I told you to keep (Y/N) happy, and you failed to. You're so afraid of what you're enemies will do to you, you're the only enemy you only seem to lose to. You know why the galaxy lets the Resistance do what they want? They don't dignify schoolyard taunts with a response! So yeah, congratulations! You've lost my sister. Congratulations!"

"It was a mistake General!"

"A mistake? I never approved of you dating my sister. I tolerated it only because no one can make her laugh like you. I look at you and think, 'Maker, what is she doing with her life, and what will it get her?' It doesn't wipe her tears or my fears away, but I'm the General of the First Order and I'm here to stay. You know what I'm here to do?"

"General--"

"I'm not here for you. I know my sister like I know my own mind. You will never find anyone as trusting or as kind. And a million years ago she said to me, 'This one's mine,' so I stood by. Do you know why?"

"No...."

"I love my sister more than anything in this life! I will choose her happiness over mine every time! (Y/N) is the best thing in our lives, so never lose sight of the fact that you could have been blessed with the best wife!" Armitage stalked toward the door of Kylo Ren's room. His shoulders dropped, and for a second he looked defeated. He opened the door of Kylo Ren's room as if he was going to leave, then looked over his shoulder. His eyes were filled with tears. "Every sacrifice you make is for my sister," he said quietly. "Give her the best life." Then he was gone. Kylo Ren stood still for the longest time. Then he made a decision. He just hoped it was the right one.

Armitage sat on the sofa in (Y/N)'s room. His half sister was curled up beside him. They were watching Revenge of the Sith together. It was (Y/N)'s all time favorite movie. Armitage thought it was good, for a documentary. They heard a knock at (Y/N)'s door, and she started to stand up. Armitage paused the movie and stood up. "Sit down," he told her. "I'll get it." (Y/N) shook her head.

"No, Amy. I can get it." She rose and walked toward the door. Armitage sighed. (Y/N) only called him Amy when she was really upset. He didn't think she could talk to anyone besides him without breaking down, but he let her get the door. He wouldn't baby her if she didn't want it. (Y/N) opened the door. "Kylo Ren," she said coolly. He smiled nervously down at her.

"Can we talk," he asked. (Y/N) narrowed her eyes.

"No," she said, and moved to close the door. Kylo Ren slid his foot between the door and the wall, and held the door open with his hand.

"Please," he begged. "I really need to talk to you."

"You want to talk to me. I don't want to talk to you. Go away."

"(Y/N)--"

"Hello Ren." Armitage was at the door, right by his half sister's side. He put his arm around her shoulders. "What are you doing here?"

"I want to talk to (Y/N)."

"Well, she doesn't want to talk to you, so I suggest you leave. Now." Kylo Ren scowled, then after a few seconds, he nodded.

"See you around," he said to (Y/N), then he was gone. Armitage shoved the door closed. "Are you alright," he asked (Y/N). She nodded, closing her eyes. Then she burst into tears. Armitage's eyes widened. He pulled her close to him. Even though (Y/N) was the same age as Armitage, having been born to Brendol and Maratelle Hux, while Armitage was Brendol's bastard son, Armitage still thought of (Y/N) as his younger sister. He looked out for her. That's why he was here now. He would take care of his little sister. So he held (Y/N) as she cried. He rocked her back and forth and sang the song Maratelle sang to them when it was storming and both (Y/N) and Armitage were terrified. "Little child, be not afraid," Armitage sang softly. "Though rain pounds harshly against the glass like an unwanted stranger, there is no danger. I am here tonight. Little child, be not afraid. Though thunder explodes and lightning flash illuminates your tearstained face, I am here tonight. And someday you'll know that nature is so. The same rain that draws you close to me falls on rivers and lands, on forests and sand, makes the beautiful world you see in the morning." (Y/N) drew a shaking breath and smiled at Armitage.

"Thanks Amy," she whispered. Armitage hugged her tightly.

"Anything for you (Y/N)."
