Ch. 11 | Teeth

Some days you're the only thing I know
Only thing that's burning
when the nights grow cold
Can't look away
Beg you to stay
Sometimes you're a stranger in my bed
Don't know if you love me
or you want me dead
Push me away then beg me to stay
Some days you're the best thing in my life
Sometimes when I look at you I see my wife
Then you turn into somebody I don't know
Call me in the morning to apologize
Every little lie gives me butterflies
Something in the way you're
looking through my eyes
Don't know if I'm gonna make it out alive
Blood on my shirt
Rose in my hand
You're looking at me like
you don't know who I am
Heart in my hand's still beating
Fight so dirty but your love's so sweet
Talk so pretty but your heart's got teeth
Late night devil put your hands on me
And never ever let go

The Force doesn't connect you and Ben for a few days after you first arrive on Ahch-To. You miss him and you know he misses you, you can feel it. But after everything with Luke you want some space and don't intentionally reach out to him. When the Force does decide to connect you two, it's by far the most interesting experience to date.

While training on the beach by yourself, your neck begins to tingle, and the bond opens. After taking a deep breath, you slowly turn to find yourself in some sort of conference room on the Supremecy, or what you assume is the Supremacy. Ben is in his Kylo Ren costume, complete with the stupid helmet that you hate. He pauses mid-sentence while pointing at, who you think may be a high ranking member of the First Order, when he sees you. He stammers and doesn't finish whatever it is he was about to say. You chuckle and cover your smile with your hand. Hearing him stammer through the voice modulator in his mask is hilarious.

"Is everything alright commander?" An older man asks Ben nervously. Even though you can't see Ben's face you know he's staring directly at you. Not being able to see his eyes makes you extremely uncomfortable. It no doubt does the same for others which is probably one of the reasons he wears it. His hands are gripping the arms of his chair tightly while his head is titled in your direction. He's trying to determine whether or not you can see or hear your surroundings like you could the last time he saw you.

"Yes commander, is everything alright?" You ask with a smile as you slowly walk around the room, examining every person sitting at the long conference table. You're sure if you could see his face it would be devoid of color.

"Commander?" An older woman asks hesitantly.

"This meeting is over. We shall reconvene tomorrow," Ben snaps.

"Absolutely not! The Supreme Leader requested we have a solution to this issue with the Resistance at once!" The man with the bright red hair practically yells at Ben, outraged.

"Ohhh you better watch out for this one Ben. He has 'evil villain' written all over his face. Like. . he sits in a big chair and slowly spins to face you while petting a large fluffy cat as he plots your demise. That kind of evil villain," you say while eyeing the red head.

Ben snorts through his mask as he tries to hold back a laugh and the entire table turns and stares at him. He clears his throat and turns his head towards the red head but stays quiet.

"You need to leave immediately."

"I would but I'm enjoying myself immensely. You might want to answer them. You're silence is making even me uncomfortable."
