"If you are going to sleep, at least do it in your chambers where no one has to see you."

Hux's annoying voice woke you from your slumber. You opened your eyes to see him staring down at you, arms crossed and face set in a frown. You noticed that your positioning had changed from last night and you were now leaning against Kylo's chest, held in place by his large, muscular arms. Kylo was still asleep, or at least pretending to be, so you stayed as still as possible while acknowledging Hux from your awkward position. You fixed him with a deadly stare.

"I suggest you be quiet; if you wake him up he might kill you. What do you want?"

Hux ignored your angry comment, keeping his all-business attitude.

"We have it on good authority that there are a team of rebels in Coruscant on a mission to weaken one of our allies. I recommend that we intercept and destroy them, weakening what is left of the Resistance."

You thought about the matter for a second before nodding. "Have Phasma send her best stormtroopers as soon as possible. The Resistance fighters won't stay long if they find out we know where they are."

Hux raised an eyebrow. "Will you not accompany them?"

You stared daggers at him. "I hope for your sake that your troops are capable of handling a few Resistance fighters. There should be no need for the Supreme Leader to accompany them on such a trivial pursuit."

Hux swallowed nervously and nodded furiously. "Of course, Supreme Leader. They are very well trained."

"I will hold you to it, then. You are dismissed."

Hux stomped out of the medbay. You pivoted your head to look up at Kylo who's eyes were still closed but the smirk forming at the corner of his mouth gave him away.

You sighed in exasperation. "You didn't want to help me?"

He opened his eyes and smirked down at you. "You seemed to be handling it quite well."

"Asshole."

Just then, the door to the surgery wing shot open, revealing the same surgeon from the night before. Kylo loosened his hold on you and you sat up quickly, straightening yourself out. The doctor smiled as he approached you..

"I have fantastic news! Ms. Lenna had a very successful surgery and the child made it through the night!" He beamed.

You breathed a sigh of relief. "Can we see her?"

"Ms. Lenna hasn't fully woken yet but I'm sure she would be more comfortable if you were at her side when she regained consciousness. We will wheel her back into her room shortly."

You nodded and thanked the doctor who smiled and gave a small bow before disappearing back into the surgery wing. You frowned as a thought came to mind and turned to look at Kylo.

"This feels so weird. I can't even remember the last time something went right for us."

Kylo shook his head, "Me neither."

"Absolutely not. You can't name that poor baby after an ancient dead queen." Lenna wrinkled her nose. "That's weird."

"Exactly, exactly," Kylo agreed.

You raised your hands defensively. "It was just a suggestion, jeez."

Lenna was propped up in bed, smiling tiredly at you.

A nurse entered to check Lenna's vitals.

"Speaking of the child, when will we be able to see her?" Kylo directed his question towards the nurse.
