I watched from a distance. The battle was right in front of him, but yet he stared at the ground. Guilt washed over me...is it because of me he seems so..down? Is it because I wanted to go into battle..?Nonsense, I'm probably just being really self centered... Right now I just wanted to comfort him, he never looked so depressed, not to mention the battle was going really well. It must be because of me!Or he is still mad about the whole deal thing that didn't work out....

I stood at the same place waiting for the battle to end. I just had so many questions. When it did end with the Resistance retreating again, I followed Hux back to his office,here he dropped in his chair all worn out.

"Why?.." he started, but probably understood that it was pointless asking again, why am I still here, so he adjusted his posture,that he would look like he is ready to work and handed me a datapad. No words said, which surprised me, ofcourse I know what I need to do, there is always a lot of work after a battle, but still Hux seemed so out of his character which made me really concerned. I didn't leave the room.

"General?" I asked quietly " Are you alright?"

"Of course I'm alright,what kind of question is that?" He growled and looked up.

He soon got back to his melancholic state and stood up in front of me as if implying that he is all fine and that I'm not needed here anymore.

"Sir, are you really alright?"

"What makes you think I'm not?" He smirked, probably knowing that I would be too scared to point out details that made me question him and yes on one side I was scared. I wouldn't be able to say that his stance was not as stiff as usual and that his eyes were glistening, but I did want him to feel better

"Would you like me to call a medical droid, for you?"

"That metal trash can!?" He sneered. Yes, calling a medical droid would be a bad idea, concerning his ego, if anyone saw a medical droid coming in to his office would assume Hux is not well and off course General "Strong Man" wouldn't like anyone questioning his health. "Anyway, as I said I feel fine and ,unless you want to get more work, I would suggest leaving."

As much as I didn't want to annoy him I wanted to make sure he's alright. The thing that he said about nobody caring made me feel really bad for him and now was a chance to show that I cared

"Is there anyway I could help, sir?"

Hux let out a sigh,but  didn't answer my question and I thought I must have gone too far woth the questions. He was looking at the ground, clearly lost in his mind, when he, with a move of a hand, instructed me to come closer. As a solder, my hands behind my back, straight I walked up closer. He giggled.

"At ease, lieutenant."

I was confused,what was it that he found funny? Maybe it was me? Maybe this whole situation? But I followed the order never the less and stood up a bit more comfortable, my arms now resting by my sides. I didn't think about it that much, but Hux did.

He ripped off his gloves of his hands and threw them on the ground and that confused me even more, but I didn't let that show.

Slowly he reached for my hands taking off my gloves and it sent me shivers when his slender fingers touched mine. At the same time I was in complete horror and pleasure. Hux finally raised his head and looked me in the eyes, starting deeply, like looking at a new not yet discovered galaxy and I guess he felt the same with me staring back at him, scanning his eyes  in hopes to find the answer to this whole situation. He leaned in... my mind,my heart racing ... he likes me...Closer and closer..

"I'm just a bit tired..." he murmured and let his head down, backing off a little" I am...just tired and a bit lonely too" he laughed. He was drawing circles with his thumbs on the back of my hands, like it was the first time in a long time that he held someones hands. Then he intertwined his fingers with mine. It was the most pleasurable feeling I have ever felt, but the only thing missing right now was...

"Would you mind...if I...if I...kissed you..?"he said looking up at me with an unsure expression, hoping that I was on the same boat with him.

I cracked a nervous smile,took a breath and whispered.

"I don't mind..."

His hands slowly made their way to my back. He leaned in,not really knowing how to approach this situation, but with a clear goal in mind his lips finally touched mine. It was just brilliant... I wrapped my arms around his neck. We were closer than ever. Hux let out a small moan as he deepened the kiss, we were completely lost in one another. Feeling his soft lips ,being so close was such a new and wonderful feeling, but saddly soon it all ended as we both needed some air. So we stood there, still hugging, blushing and giggling like two nervous wrecks we were, not really knowing what to do now...just blushing and giggling...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So I guess I'm finally done with the story... took a long time... didn't really know how to finish it, but I knew I had to do it...I still don't know if I'm happy with it or not (the ending) but the thought of an unfinished story haunted me for a long time...

So I hope you've enoyed it. Thank you for sticking till the end.

Aaand love you all ! ♡
