"Start from the beginning." You commanded him as he exited the bath and sat down on the edge of a tan cot next to you

The rentable lot made Kylo's quarters seem like a palace. It was hot and dry, the walls were an off white instead of a dark grey, the entire room was decorated with Mandalorian paintings and different Nick nacks, wheras Kylo's quarters had nothing.

"Where?"

"Why were you so upset to begin with?"

He looked down, and with the action water droplets sprang from him black locks. "I felt a great disturbance in the Force. I knew it was my mother and I knew she was in trouble but--" he shook his head as his sentence trailed off. You placed a hand on his concealed thigh, and looked up at him

"Its alright. I'm not going to judge you"

"I can't go back and I can not heal her but I still mourn" he said simply, and placed his hand on top of yours, intertwining your fingers. "She tried to kill me-"

"What?!" You shook your head " when?! "

"When I was fifteen and she sent me off to my uncle. She was afraid of my power and she sent me to be killed! " you could tell he was gradually growing angrier by the second. He truly and whole - heartedly believed that Han and Leia sent him off to be killed. You didn't want to tell him he was right, because that would make him angry, but you didn't want to tell him he was wrong either because it would only cause more heartache.

You clenched his hand tighter.

"You want to know why I fell so hard for you, Y/N? " he asked randomly, but eagerly. You didn't give him a responce, but he continued on. "Because every single person in my life failed to protect me against the horrors of the galaxy when I needed them the most" he stated proudly , and turned more to the side so he could view you "but not you. You would protect me with your life, I know that about you" he narrowed his eyes as if he was confused "why?"

" Why? " You asked, making sure you heard him correctly "because I love you," you replied, but he shook his head, not accepting the answer.

" Its something else. I can't pinpoint the feeling, it is foreign to me. Describe it to me " he stated at you in amazement, his brown eyes dancing in excitement as his pink lips parted

You looked away and shook your head "I don't know, Kylo. I guess it's just because I've never had anybody stay this long in my life" you admitted "so now I'm so scared for you to leave me that I would rather die then lose you" the words slipped off your tongue like poetry, and Kylo narrowed his eyes and smiled like he was watching a newborn take its first steps.

"You're so.  .  . Incredible." He said, still staring at you like you were some ancient artifact in a museum.

" Tell me why you came to Mandalore" you changed the subject, focussing on him once more. Mandalore was mutual in politics. They had their own government but didn't do much to disturb The First Order's practices and certainly did not aid the rebelion. They were their own people, which was one of the reasons you were so proud to be half Mandalorian.

"I was searching for Tovi-Mruu " he said, referring to a counsellor. "Political issues. We thought we could use Mandalorian warriors to end the war."

You furrowed your brows, confused "why did you send a fleet to that village?"

"Because I believe they lied to me about the Counsellors whereabouts." He still did not look at you.

" something is not adding up, Kylo" you shook your head "What are you not telling me?"

That was it, there was no way Kylo would randomly venture to a planet in a while different system without consulting you first. Especially Mandalore.
