Kylo Ren One Shots

Love Me For Today

Warnings: Fluff! Cursing!

From dawn to dawn i ran back and forth between the High command aboard the Finalizer. Passing off Battle plans, execution notices, budget plans and so on but i was never actually involved in any of it. I was just the delivery girl, a runner. I'm that panicked person you see bolting down the hallways, papers clutched in her hands- it's great cardio. My uniform is distinguished by the material and large 2 red stripes going down the pants leg. It was the standard black on black but it was flexible and moisture wicking- but i still looked sharp as hell. i also have unrestricted access to most of the ship...added bonus. There are currently only 4 runners to "run" the Finalizer, so every morning at 5am, the 4 of us meet up for a warm-up before the hectic day starts. We are a team vital to communication on the Finalizer but outside of the workday, we are all very different.

my 36-hour shift finally ended as i passed along the last papers to Captain Phasma. I'm beyond exhausted. it went like clockwork, a 36 shift then a 12 break. i walked back into the private housing sector until i reached my door. i lazily punched in the 6 digit code and the doors slide open quietly. i stripped off my uniform as i headed towards the bedroom, throwing it into the heap of clothing that was forming in the corner of the room. As quietly as possible i tried to get ready for bed but the sudden stop from the snoring bed and the ruffled of sheets made me cringe. i woke him up...again. "Y\N?" the groggy voice asked. "Sorry, Kylo. I'll be there in a minute," I spoke softly and headed to the shared bathroom. I stared at my reflection in the large mirror after i took off my makeup. My eyes were not bright blue anymore. they sunk in with large purple bags underneath them as i felt the burn of a nosebleed start. the human body was not meant to do 36-hour shifts and i was paying the price. Luckily though, i had the weekends off. i stuffed tissue up my nose and left the bathroom, scurrying across the cold floor and under the heavy black blankets. i wasn't even all the way under before Kylo's heavy arms swarmed me and pulled me close. it took a very long time to get here, to get this amount of trust from him but through all the fighting and trying to understand each other- it was worth it. already i could feel my body begin to relax as the sound of Kylo's heavy, slow heartbeat pattered away softly. It wasn't long until my body let go and drifted into the abyss...

"Y/N" A low groan sounded from under the big black comforter. I responded with a grunt and tried to turn away. "You have off today," Kylo's morning voice croaked but he kept me from moving, trapped in his warm hold. "Then why are you waking me up?" i snapped quietly and pulled me crusted eyes open to see Kylo looking at me, his gaze soft. "I don't get much time with you, at least time when you're conscious," he chuckled lowly his hand now playing with my hair. "So you wake me up on purpose?" i moaned and threw my head into the pillow. "Maybe you have off, but i don't," He muttered and his hand still played with my messy hair. "Sorry, i know you have to go,"I mumbled my eyes already heavy again but i managed to tangle myself with him one last time before he had to go take a shower. i pulled my eyes open once more and looked into his, the feeling of love and affection pouring over me. "Ok," i whispered with a smile and put my head down, darkness already swirling in my head. "Ok, what?" Kylo asked a slight sound of concern in his voice. "You still love me for today," i sighed. "For today? I'll love you as long as you live Y/N. i love you more than just today," i could sense his confusion. "I fear the day when someone better comes alone Kylo. Someone who meets all your expectations,"I felt the tug of sleep piercing my consciousness. "No one will be better than you," Kylo growled, a bit annoyed. "That force sensitive scavenger is, she's everything you ever wanted. i know because you told me this before we got involved and i was just your friend," my words started to slur. "That's stupid Y/N, to think that," Kylo's deep voice sighed heavily. "We'll talk about this later but for now, I'm glad you love me today," my words trailed off into silence as i fell back into the abyss of sleep...
