Now only one day until the wedding and Kylo has barely let you out of his grasp, knowing inside he still feels guilty for ignoring you is obvious, but enjoying the extra affection you've of course allowed it. Today he's promised to show you his fighter ship, to take you off base, show you the empire you'll soon rein over from above. Eagerly waiting for a droid to inform you that he's waiting, was quite boring after all you had already ate breakfast, showered, gotten dressed, chose a pair of thick black leather pants that squeezed and hugged at the shape of your legs followed by a deep red and black long sleeved shirt. It's knitted material was heavy forcing the right side of its neck to slightly slip down revealing a little bit of skin, shrugging having chosen this top because of its warm fabric, after all he had warned you of the cold bitterness feeling of space, something you've never fully experienced. At least not consciously, having always been sedated or knocked out in some way each time while being transferred to a new planet, in fact this will be the first time you've actually seen it up, seen the stars among the vast black abyss and there's no one you'd rather experience it with than Kylo.

A sudden knock at the door pulls you from thought, rushing towards it quickly flinging open the hatch surprised to see that it's actually Hux who stands beyond the threshold "Good afternoon (y/n) I was sent by our leader to fetch you, he informed me you'd be needing this." His hands rise giving way to a package resting upon both palms, feeling a bit confused but taking the gift slowly running a hand over its delicate wrapping, knowing Kylo himself surely picked out every aspect of the entire presentation of it. The wrapping was black in color with small intricate decals of velvet placed all around, topped with a large red bow and a card with your name beautifully written in his familiar scrip. Awkwardly opening the letter while Hux simply stares, wishing he had been a droid to avoid being watched like a spectacle. Sighing deeply then reading what is written upon the note *(y/n) knowing you, you have undoubtedly dressed for today's occasion having taken my word for truth about the harshness of space. But it's weighed heavy on my mind the thought of my love suffering it's cold embrace while I have my cloak to keep me warm, passing the thought back and forth of loaning you a spare before reaching the conclusion residing within this box. I am waiting for your arrival, I want to show you our empire, the stars, the silence I've grown to love, now hurry and follow Hux to the docking bay where you'll board my ship. Do not leave me waiting long.*

Glancing back up eyeing Hux as he continues to blankly stare, gently pulling at the ribbon it unravels effortlessly allowing you to pull at the beautiful wrapping until a black matte finished box is revealed. Slowly opening the lid, the sight of red peaks from behind its cover, upon letting the lid fall to the floor the full vision of a beautiful first order red cloak rests just inside. Happily pulling it out holding it up with both hands taking in its beauty, it's soft texture instantly reminds you of Kylo's but the fabric is new having not been subjected to wear and tear, slipping it around your shoulders hastily tying it around your neck, hugging its shape around your frame smiling like a little girl "oh it's perfect!" You say out loud almost forgetting that Hux is still standing by the door "sure (y/n) it's great, now could we please get going, I had other plans today...other things needing my...attention...besides just running errands for Ren." Slightly frustrated with his attitude but also excited to see Kylo, quickly walking straight past the stern red head striding straight towards the docking bay "you know, I really don't even understand why he sent you I'm perfectly capable of finding my own way to his ship." Hux grumbles from behind "yes of course, but you know Ren... his persistence...outweighs logic sometimes. Says he's afraid to leave you alone, something about bad things always happening while your alone." He shrugs while catching up to your pace, once arriving to the docking bay he gestures in the fighter's direction before turning sharply and storming off in the other direction.

The ship is huge, catching you off guard having never seen it up close before only from the window within his office. Nervously walking up the lowered ramp your hand glides along the rough metal frame before your figure dips into its entrance, inside everything is dark only illuminated by various machinery and glowing buttons, off in the distance Kylo can be heard quietly talking to himself something about lazy pit workers not preparing the ship properly even though he had informed them of this flight days ago. Heading towards his voice, it grows louder and louder before stopping completely, with a deep exhale it deeply fills the room "you've arrived...about time...come, I'm nearly finished we will be ready for takeoff as soon as you are seated." Walking further into the pit being a little surprised only seeing one seat and smiling at the large frame of Kylo peeking over its edges knowing his massive proportions are hard to contain, letting out a small giggle "what's so funny?" Finally standing next to him although he hadn't even noticed as you watched him hunched over flipping and pressing various nobs and buttons, staring at the way his hair hung along the sides of his cheeks slowly swaying with each move he made. Gently placing a hand upon his smiling at the feel of cold leather on your fingers, the sudden touch makes him jump quickly darting his gaze towards you "shit (y/n)! I swear you enjoy startling me!" Laughing at his panicked expression it quickly fades to a smile, scooting further back on the seat while slowly spreading his legs, quickly patting his inner thigh creating a leather upon leather clap, commanding "sit."
