That One Crazy Summer-Reader X Kylo Ren

Now What?

You giggle. "You made me really mad."

He sighs and holds his hand to your cheek. Suddenly, he is very serious.

"Y/N, I am so sorry for all of this. If it wasn't for me sending people to look for that stupid map, none of this would have happened in the first place." He looks away shyly. "And I'm sorry I lied to you from the beginning."

You feel a tear roll down your face. "I know."

He wipes your tear away with his gloved thumb. You take in a breath to speak.

"But I never would have met you. We never would have found each other."

You reach over and pull his face to yours so you can kiss him. This kiss is deeper, more sensual. You can't believe you went a whole day and night without him.

He pulls away suddenly. "And you're right about the slaves."

You raise your eyebrows. He looks at you with enormous guilt.

"Everything about that was wrong. I was in such a dark place that I didn't care about anyone but myself. I am outlawing slavery the minute I get back to the First Order."

You smile widely and kiss him again.

You start to sit up on the bed but fall right back over. Kylo puts his hands on your shoulders and forces you down so you can rest. He starts to pull away but you hold on to his shirt. He has that sexy half-smile as he realizes what you want and lets his body lay next to you, almost on top of you because of the size of the bed. He wraps his muscular frame around you, caging you in.

You need to talk about Poe. You know you have to. Just rip the bandaid off.

"I'm sorry..."

"For what?" He looks at you, thoroughly confused.

"...for Poe."

Kylo stares at you for a long moment. You're afraid he's going to storm off and leave you there. You're positive your heart can't take anymore ups and downs from him.

"I'm not happy about it," he speaks slowly. "But...I did lie to you, and you did think I was trying to make you my sex slave..."

You nod and let out a breath you didn't know you were holding. His voice has a thin veil of humor covering his pain, and it makes you hurt.

"I thought you were gone forever. When Hux said those things to me and Jaygrin and Grenjin..."

"I know." He interrupts you. He bites the inside of his mouth while he looks at you. "I know."

There's a long pause before you speak again.

"So...what now? I don't want the resistance to arrest you. And those lizard freaks are on their way here."

Kylo furrows his brow while he thinks. "I don't think I can get out of being arrested. I knew what coming here would mean. But you're in no condition to fight right now."

He moves away from you and gets up to pace the room. He rubs his chin with a gloved hand.

"You need to see your father," he says with confidence. "Let them arrest me. We can figure it out later. It would be wrong of me to take you away from John right now. Plus, I know where you can hide when they attack so you're safe."

Your eyes widen. "But what about you? You'll be down in a cell when they attack."

Kylo smirks. "I'm Supreme Leader of the First Order. I'll be fine."

You roll your eyes and laugh. It's strained, but it's a laugh nonetheless.

"What about the First Order?"

"I have to get back there the minute this battle is over and retake my position. Jaygrin and Grenjin will have to die and so will their supporters. I'll let you deal with Hux."

He shoots you a devious smile and you shake your head.

"I'm not saying no to it." You raise an eyebrow.

He laughs.

"Well...let's get this over with," you mumble as you finally sit up. You can feel everyone outside your door waiting anxiously. "I'll walk out first."

Before you can stand, Kylo takes two giant strides over to you and grabs your face with his hands. He kisses you passionately, deeply, as if you're an elixir he's needed desperately for years. You hold him around his neck and run your fingers through his dark, silky hair. You both finally pull away, and he helps you stand.

"We'll figure this out," he whispers.

You nod and place your hand on the doorknob and start to open the door.
