You entered the medbay and immediately opened the food container. Rosie's meal smelled delicious, it was some sort of curry and gone within a few minutes. You didn't really know where you'd change Kylo Ren's bandages so you opted for waiting in the medbay. Taking a seat on one of the chairs you started to look through the prisoners' records again.

You changed a few errors in the documentation and clarified things you had thrown in a very chaotic manner.

At five past eight, the doors to Kylo Ren's room opened, you immediately sprung up from your chair.

He looked at you and turned back around to where he came from, you took it as a sign to follow him.

The sterile grey, black and white of his room still surprised you. What surprised you more, however, was the huge window opposite of his bed. Either you hadn't noticed it previously or his wall had been replaced. Or...he just had some high tech blinds that looked like walls. That was also an option. It was also the one that was most likely, given that the walls just moved in front of it.

"Come to my quarters at eight in the future.", Kylo said and you nodded.

While helping him out of his shirt you noticed that he was not really comfortable so you did your best to do it as quick and casual as possible. With any other patient you wouldn't have minded, but he wasn't any other patient now, was he?

You carefully removed the bandage and took a look at the wound. Still draining, but this time only clear fluid.

"It's looking good, Sir. I'll be cleaning it up and then rebandage it."

He made a sound that you interpreted as a 'yes' and you got your stuff while Kylo lied down on the bed.

Taking a seat next to him, you looked at him briefly. His long strands of black hair were partially covering his face and the scar on his left side. Some part of you wondered how he'd gotten it, but not a single part of you was willing to ask.

He turned his head towards you and you quickly looked away, back at his wound.

"Thank you for allowing me to see the interrogation, Sir", you eventually said, trying to break the silence between you two. You'd spent the whole day talking to patients about all sorts of irrelevant stuff, you could atleast try to have an actual conversation for once. Most of you doubted that the rather quiet Supreme Leader was the one you were going to have a proper conversation with but you could still try.

"I hope I did not hinder you from getting information from Mr. Stares. You know, because he reacts weird to me and all.", you only realized that you'd used your nickname for him by Kylo's raised eyebrows.

"A fitting name." he turned his head again and looked at the ceiling, "No, it was easier to get into his mind when he was staring at you."

"Oh really? I don't get him, I mean, I really dislike doctors but I ain't afraid of them."

"Aren't you a doctor yourself?" he asked, eyeing you.

"Yes, I still don't want to visit them."

"Mhhh", was all you heard from him for a while. It hadn't really been a long talk, but it was better than perhaps 80% of the discussions you'd had today.

It didn't take that long until you were finished, given you just had to wipe it off and rebandage it.

The next few days were uneventful. Like the days before, you checked on the prisoners in the early morning and then went to eat early lunch because you had skipped breakfast. Afterwards you went back to the ER and helped out. It was stressful, but only because of the sheer amount of work. At eight in the evening you changed Kylo Ren's bandages. You exchanged probably less than a dozen words over those few days but it did not bother you much, given how tired you usually were by the end of the day. You still enjoyed it, he was a great patient that did not complain and stayed down as still as possible when you cleaned his wounds.
