Open To the Truth ~ Kylo Ren FanFic

Chapter 10 - Power

I was exhausted. And starving. And annoyed. And confused. Let's just say. All of the above. Kylo was confusing. Intimidating. Strong. Hot...

What? 

Pssh.

No.

For the first time in forever, I was able to wake up without sweat-drenched hair. Maybe because I actually showered the night before, or maybe the nightmares are slowing down. But either way, I was happy about it. But the low growling noises from my stomach were asking to be filled. I stood up from my bed and grabbed the first shirt I saw in my drawers. It was a skin-tight, black t-shirt. I then grabbed the first pants I saw, which happened to be black shorts that were perfect for moving around. They weren't too tight, but they still looked good.

I decided I would go out and grab something to eat in that cafeteria I saw earlier. 

Kylo wouldn't be to mad if I was late right...?

I left my room and walked down the long hallways. I took my first left, sure of where I was going. But boy was I wrong. I continued walking, but the further I got, the more confused I was.

"Ex-excuse me, sir. Could you possibly lead me to the cafeteria?" I saw a near stormtrooper and got his attention.

"And you are?" He turned around, fully looking towards me.

"Phoenix. Could please just help me, and I'll leave you alone." I looked at him with subtle puppy dog eyes. I didn't want to cause any trouble.

"Down the hall behind me, and then a direct right. It'll be the first door on the left." 

"Thank you!" I gave him a quick smile and jogged down the hall. I might have jogged because I was hungry. Or maybe because I didn't want to be seen by Kylo.

Once I reached the hall, I realized that the cafeteria was practically empty. I guess it wasn't time to eat yet. Hungry and annoyed, I turned around, ready to walk to the training room, but was stopped by someone grabbing my forearm.

"Hey!" I turned to look at who touched me and saw one of the most good-looking people I've ever seen. His jawline was perfectly chiselled, and his hair was a beautiful light brown. 

"Did you come to eat?"

His voice.

Oh my god.

"Y-yes. I didn't realize there were specific times to eat at. Sorry." I realized his hand was still on my arm, and I guess he noticed it too, because he immediately took it off, and brought it behind him. 

"My name's Asher." He took out his hand again, but this time, for a handshake. 

"Phoenix. Nice to meet you." I shook his hand and gave him my nicest, but slightest smile.

"You can still eat. Here. Come with me." He gestured for me to follow him inside the room. It was empty like before, but this time, I noticed workers in the kitchen.

"Wait here, I'll bring something for you to eat." He smiled at me and walked towards the kitchen. While he walked away, I noticed his perfectly sculpted body. He was wearing a black t-shirt, that showed off his body perfectly. He then looked like he had black scrub pants on. 

Is he a doctor here?

Damn. I hope so.

'Leave.'

"Huh?" I looked around, to see who just spoke to me, but couldn't see anyone.

"Leave...?" Am I going crazy? I swear someone just told me to leave.
