Connections || Kylo || Poe Dameron || Book One - IN PROGRESS

II. 10 years later

I was scavenging with my sister in the old flighters that adorned Jakku's waste land.

The heat was getting to me and the sand was making it hard to breath, my eyesight was blurred from the bits of junk that kept hitting my glasses.

Basically overall, Yeh, it has been a pretty crappy day so far. I'm so gonna need talk to kylo when we get back.

'Rey!' I shouted over at my sister. 'What water do you have left?' I used the rope I was hanging off to swing over to her.

'None'

I huffed.

'Well none for you!'

'Rey!' I tackled her and we fell to the ground.

We rolled over and over. Me finally winning while having my whole body on top of hers, keeping her down.

She slapped my leg twice and I stood up. 'I win again.' I offered my hand to her.

She took it a I pulled her up.

'You still can't have any water Cas.'

I brought a bottle up in front of her face.

'It's alright, Ive got some anyways.' With that I ran off, Rey's screams of protest ringing in my ears.
My laughter leaving a trail behind me.

------------------------

My tears blocked my ears
as I sat crying for years.

I sat on my bed crying, this happened sometimes.

Things getting to me.

Reality getting to much.

My mind getting too overloaded.

My life breaking me down piece by piece.

I felt his soft arms around me.
Nothing better for me than he.

I felt kylo's presence.

Chocked with the tears that tear him apart.

He put his arms around me. A bear like hug to make me feel better.

No words are needed.
Only actions are heeded.

He placed a sweet kiss on my cheek.

A sign of friendship.
A sign of love for another.

He hummed a melody. Rubbing soothing circles on my back.

As I look up I see his deep, dark, dreamlike eyes.
Eyes so beautiful they would never tell me lies.

His eyes were a distraction, his smile was comfort, his presence was a dream.

I snuggled into his chest, my tears subsiding.

The love of my life and he didn't even know it.
So caught up in him I forgot to even show it.

'Thank you kylo.'

'I'll do anything for my princess.'

------------------------

I slid down the sand hill, ridding my scrap metal more like a hover board then a sled.
(Rey's always soooo over cautious).

I jumped on our hover bike thing and drank the little water left in the bottle. We really need to get bigger bottles.
