"Y'know, if you were actually a Jedi, You'd be dead by now." Daisy sighed, as she - once again - rehearsed the sequence for your fight scene.
"Jedi, more like dead-i." you joked, causing Daisy to bury her face in her palms dramatically. From behind you, you heard a muffled laugh, as Adam tried to suppress a genuine laugh to your shitty pun.
"wow, I didn't know we had a certified comedian on set." he smiled at you, carrying a steaming mug of coffee and leaning against the doorway to the dance studio.
"John Mulaney wants what I have.' you said with a false smugness which won a chuckle from Daisy.
"Go on then," she said, raising an eyebrow, "tell us a joke."
"Yeah," Adam chimed in,"make us laugh."
"uhm..." your mind completely blanked of any even remotely funny jokes you knew, perfect. "knock knock?"
"Come in." Adam said, a smug smile growing across his face.

Daisy burst out laughing as you playfully sneered at the man, squinting menacingly in his direction. "ha ha, very funny," you said sarcastically,"you're interrupting rehearsals"

You and Daisy had been rehearsing all morning, going over a lightsaber fight scene between your characters, but you always seemed to mess up at the same point-when you had to throw your lightsaber into your left hand as Daisy hit your right. Every time you managed to throw the shitty plastic pseudo-lightsaber at the wall, and a couple of times you managed to even hit Daisy. Lets just say your hand-eye coordination wasn't exactly the best.
"rehearsals?" Daisy said,"more like 'Daisy being beaten up by a lightsaber'"
"Twice. I hit you twice, and you can't expect me to get it perfect first go."
"Of corse not, but maybe 50th go?" She muttered.
"well I'm not gonna get it right by standing around and talking," you brandished your lightsaber above your head, swinging it down dramatically, "so en guarde, Daisy Ridley, and prepare to die!" "You do realise that I win this fight, right?" she said, raising an eyebrow.
"yes but shhhhh, you're bruising me ego" you said.
"Well I better leave you two to it then, Adam said, pushing off the doorframe and starting out of the studio, "try not to kill each other."
"tell her that!" Daisy said, incredulously.
He stopped for a minute, turning back around to face you two."pass me your saber for a sec?" he said, swinging it around after you handed it to him.
"What are you having trouble with?"
"The easiest part" Daisy muttered under her breath.
"hey! It's hard, ok?" you replied. "and it's the bit where i have to throw it into my left hand." "like this?" Adam said, completing the move with a smug flourish.

"yeah..like that" you said, with an embarrassed chuckle.
"here, i'll help ya" he said, placing the lightsaber into your hand as he stood behind you, mirroring your pose. He wrapped his arms around your frame making you realise how small you were compared to him. Grabbing your right hand he wrapped his fingers over yours, enveloping your hand and filling your chest with an unfamiliar tightness. The feeling of his taught chest against your back sent a tingle up your spine; even from under his shirt you could feel his muscly build pressed up against you.

"when you throw it, instead of throwing the laser first, throw the handle, almost like you're throwing it backwards." as he spoke, you felt the deep rumble of his voice behind your neck, throwing warmth into your cheeks. "like this." he jerked his hand to the side, tossing the lightsaber into you other hand which - for the first time - you caught effortlessly.
"There ya go, now you can stop attacking your co-star." He chuckled, turning his face to the side to face you. His hot breath hit your lips as he laughed, your faces inches apart.
"FINALLY." Daisy dramatically threw her hands above her head, breaking you out of the trance that surrounded you. "Thank you, now maybe we can release the movie on time." She chuckled.
"okay you two, try not to kill each other." Adam said, pulling away and making his way out of the door.
You scooped your hair away from your neck in a desperate attempt to soothe the growing blush on your cheeks.
"well then," Daisy said, brandishing her lightsaber,"shall we finally get this scene right?"

———————

You stood in front of the coffee machine, waiting for it to slowly make you a sorry excuse for an espresso, as Mark walked in.
"Heya, how ya doin'?" he said, grabbing an apple.
"Heya dude, I'm just chilling" you replied, staring as the coffee machine sputtered into your cup. "yeah? How's rehearsal going?"
"good, I finally got that fight scene down"
"Oh yeah, Adam was telling me about that," he said, taking a bite of the apple,"Apparently you're not the best with a lightsaber" he chuckled.
"Hey! I'm not that bad. Plus its like my first fight scene so you can get off your high horse." you said flipping your hair and grabbing you're cup in fake offence and walking out of the room.
"Okay, but just saying - you wouldn't last 2 minutes in the Star Wars universe!" he called after you playfully.
"well neither did you" you called back, walking down the drab hallway towards the break room. Sitting your cup down on a side table, you grabbed your script and opened to the next scene.
You looked down at the page and began to read the scene between Aria Luna and Kylo Ren.

'KYLO: who are you?

ARIA: [playfully] and i thought you could read minds?

Kylo Ren ignites his lightsaber and holds it to Aria Lunas throat

KYLO: it was a mistake to come here; to fight me. now the only way you'll leave is with a burning hole in your guts.

Kylo Ren raises his lightsaber and swings it towards Aria Lunas head, only to be frozen before he hits her.

ARIA: well then i guess its good that i didn't come to fight you.

She uses the force to fling his lightsaber across the room and steps towards him, leaning close to his visor

ARIA: i came to kill you.'

"Reading the new scene, huh?" A voice came from behind you, breaking you out of your daydream state.
"Oh hi Adam," You said, turning to face him as he leant over your shoulder. You could smell his aftershave from how close you were; It smelt of musky pine and redwood, slightly tearing you away from reality as you tried not to look creepy covertly smelling him.
"yeah, and you're aboutta get rekt"
"wait really?" he sat himself down next to you, tilting the script towards him."holy shit, I haven't read this scene yet."

You both sat there, reading the pages for a while, before Adam broke the silence.
"oh my god you beat me?"
"yeah, and i do it without a lightsaber - suck it, Ren!" you laughed as he feigned offence.
"just as well," he continued."with how you handle a lightsaber you'd probably end up sabotaging yourself."
"hey!" you replied."i got it in the end."
"yeah, after i took time out of my precious coffee break to teach you." Raising an eyebrow he turned to you, with a half-smirk painted across his face. you couldn't help think how cute his smile was, even if it was mocking you.
"Well I'm so so sorry to be such a hindrance to your daily schedule, Sir." You held emphasis on the 'Sir', mirroring his pose.
He laughed, and you detected a hint of anxiousness in his tone. Shit, did you say something?
"Oh damn, we should probably get back to rehearsals" he said, checking the time on his phone,"wouldn't wanna get fired"
"Oh yeah",you said, getting up from the curiously stained couch,"you comin'?"
"Uh, yeah - I just need to um... read...something. See ya."
"See ya." you walked out of the room and headed back to the dance studio, cold cup of coffee in hand; you'd been too enthralled in the script to even drink it.
You wondered why Adam had acted weirdly towards the end of your conversation. Was it something you said? You shook the thought from your head, eager to get back to rehearsals and perfect your fight scene.
"heya," Daisy said,"ready to finally get this right?" "hell yeah"
