"Leia really must care about you for her to just let you go." General Pryde says, he has taken over Hux's position after his death.

"Yes, she does." I say.

"Why are you questioning her?" Kylo says through his mask.

"Don't you realise Ren?" Pryde starts, "She is like Lady Ren's family."

"I know that, I'm not stupid." Kylo says, Force choking Pryde, "Do you think, your leader is stupid?!" He throws him across the room.

"No... sir..." Pryde chokes out, coughing.

"Good." Kylo takes my hand and we walk out of the room.

We walk into our quarters and sit on the couch, "I can't really believe that Leia just let us go like that." He takes is his mask and puts it on the coffee table.

"I can, she's always been like that, she cares." I say smiling.

"I don't know much about her." He says, looking down.

"I know."

"What's my mother like?" He asks looking at me and holding my hand.

"She's lovely, she's really caring, she only cares about her friends, she's selfless." I say smiling.

"I guess that's where you get it from." He says chuckling.

"Maybe." I say giggling, "Everyone likes her."

"What about my father?"

"I only knew him for a little bit, I met him before I left to go training with Luke." I sigh, "Han, he was the only man that could look angry but happy at the same time." I laugh.

"Really?"

"Yes, I see a lot of your parents in you, Ben." I say, "It's a good thing."

"How?"

"It just is."

"(Y/n)..." Kylo says, "I love you..."

I look at him, I'm shocked, he just told me he loves me, really?

"Yes, really." He sighs, "I didn't think I would. I thought I would hate you."

"Me too..." I look at him and smile. "I love you too..."

He smiles and kisses me.

"Tell me." He starts, "You tell Leia that you are neutral. Do you really think that?"

I shut my eyes and think, do I think I'm neutral? I'm married to the leader of the First Order. Can I call myself neutral?

"Be honest, I know you're conflicted. So am I." He says putting his hand on mine.

"I don't know..." I sigh and look to him, "I mean, I think I'm neutral but I'm married to the leader of the First Order."

"Yes, but, you also killed Snoke." Kylo points out.

"I've betrayed both sides."

"Technically." I giggle and smile at Kylo, he always found a way to make me laugh.

Someone knocks on the door of our quarters. Kylo grunts and sighs and tells them to come in, he puts on his mask as soon as General Pryde enters the room.

"General?" He says, his voice distorted my his mask.

"Uh, Ren, we are getting transmissions from a neutral planet." Pryde says, nervous after Kylo's previous stunt.

"Which planet?" Kylo questions.

"They won't say..." Pryde says looking down, he's really scared.

"Well, figured it out!" Kylo heels, immediately Pryde leaves the room and shuts the door.

"I could be the Resistance." I say to Kylo.

"That's what I'm thinking, if they don't state their planet, it would very well be the Resistance." Kylo says standing, "Come, we need to make sure Pryde does his job."

We walk over to the bridge where the transmission was coming from.

"Please state the name of your planet." Pryde says into the communicator.

"If you are willing to help us, then you won't need to name of our planet. We just want some food and water to get by." A female voice comes from the communicator.

"Yes, but to help you, we need the name of your planet." Pryde says, grunting.

"I do not wish for our planet to fall into the hands of the First Order!" She exclaims slamming her hand on what seems to be a desk.

Kylo walks up to the communicator and he slams his hand on it, "Tell ya the name of your planet... now..."

"Kylo Ren?" The voice questions, "Will you help us? We just need some food and water."

"Maybe, if you tell us the name of your planet!" He screams into the communicator.

The employees looks terrified. I mean, I know Kylo's "Ben" side of him, I'm not scared of him. He cares about me.

"I do not want to tell you the name of the planet!" She exclaims, "You're the First Order, surely you can track our coordinates."

He turns of the communicator and looks at Pryde. "Track their coordinates, and do it quickly, I would like to get this done by tomorrow."

"Yes, sir."

Kylo grabs my arm and he drags me to one of the closest rooms.
He opens the door and shuts it, locking it.

"It's the Resistance." He says taking off his mask, the hissing filling the room.

"How do you know?" I ask, taking his mask and putting it on the table behind me.

"I can feel it, surely you can too." He says, I see the conflict in his eyes.

"Yes, I can, I didn't think they would try again." I say sighing.

"Yes, me too, this is disturbingly quick." He sighs, "Do they never leave their lesson?"

"Apparently." I say giggling.

"They want to take you back." He scoffs, "They have to go through me."

I giggle and sit up on the table behind me, "They might not get past you."

"Of course they won't." He walks up at me and standing in front of me.

He gives me a hug and squeezes me, "I've had enough is this."

"What do you mean?"

"I'm sick of this war." He says, "I want it to end."

"I know, me too." I sigh, "I don't even know what we're fighting for anymore."

"How about we run away?" He says letting go of me, "We can live in Naboo, that's where my Grandmother lived, maybe..."

"That would be nice." I smile at him and giggle.

"We can run!" He exclaims taking my hand, "Please..."

"I want to, but how?"

"We'll find a way, I want to start a new life." He says smiling at me.

"I would love that."
