PROMPT: can you write something with hux where he and the reader escape the first order bc everything has gone bad
SUMMARY: post!tlj. kylo ren has rejoined the light, phasma is dead, the first order gone. all that's left is armitage hux and the reader. and rather than falling victim to the first order and it's doom, they decide to run.
WARNINGS: mentions of war obviously
WORDS: ~1.8k
Sirens sounded and the red light of the ship's warning systems flashed as "full system failure" blared on the PA system. The bridge had been filled with officers but when they realized that this was the end of the First Order, they fled and filled every escape pod, in hopes they would escape with their lives.
Even Kylo had fled, looking for a quick escape. He and the Jedi Rey, who had convinced Kylo to rejoin the light, took his TIE-fighter and rejoined the Resistance ships. Phasma had been killed.
The only remaining life on the Finalizer was General Armitage Hux and you, his right-hand admiral and the love of his life.
"What do we do, Armitage?"
He looked out the windows of the Bridge Tower and then down to you. He saw fear swimming in your eyes and it was then he realized. He realized the Order had taken everything, ever since he was a child. The Order had been all he'd ever known, and it had consumed him. The Order had taken every choice, every freedom and every luxury from him.
The only choice he had ever made was the choice to love you, to allow you to get close to him, to give you his heart and every bit of him that came with it.
Armitage loved you, but now you two were going to die there, in space, with no one to remember you.
A final light blinked on and off on one of the control panels controlling the ship's main hangar. He realized it signaled there was one last ship left in the bay. Kylo's ship.
And then it hit him.
"We leave. We run to some far off planet and we live the rest of our lives in peace. Together," he said, confidently.
Suddenly, everything seemed to click into place.
"Look," Armitage said, pointing to that last light, that blinking beacon of hope. "It's Ren's command ship. It wasn't taken because only him and I know how to completely bypass its security. It's big enough for both of us and it has enough fuel to get us out of this system. If we hurry, perhaps we'll have a chance."
"Kriff, Armie, I love you." You sighed, and the next thing Armitage registered was your lips on his and your arms around his neck. His heart sighed a gasp of relief and swelled with his love for you. All he could think to do was kiss you back in the brief moment in which he still could before you pulled away, a new sense of hope and excitement invigorating you.
