All Fun and Games Until... (Ben Solo/Kylo Ren)

Chapter 1: The Game Begins

Metallic cranking of lockers closing and opening and crinkling of brand new light blue scrubs filled the resident's longue as the nervous batch of new interns was huddled in each every corner listening intently to the residents barking out last names.

The intense, aggressive competitiveness hung thickly in the air. It has been like that since the mixer. Everyone wants to climb up ladder fast, faster than anybody else. Med school taught them to be that way. That even became their stereotype, bunch of people who holds a knife that have a superiority complex. And after the horrifying yet motivating welcome speech Chief Calrissian told them earlier ago, everyone was felt that a syringe of morphine was injected to them. Cathartic.

In the benches, Diana Montgomery fixed her watch. Raven black hair that complimented her skin already neatly tied at the back of her head. Upon her observation, they are 20 interns and 12 are women. And for some reason, that felt pretty good. Women making a statement and position in the competitive field of medicine.

She didn't want to look sluggish, she's the only one relaxing in the benches as every single one of them is on their feet. So Diana picked herself up and stood in the corner, listening to her fellow co-interns exchanging names, asking their assigned residents. In her mind, she is scoffing with all her might. They didn't even sound sincere, they just wanted to know the names of the people that they will spend almost a hundred per cent of their time with. Trying to remember the names of who will crack in the pressure and who will make it out alive.

The residents are standing outside the door of the room as names keep rolling. Frighteningly impatient, very on brand. On the side of her eyes, she saw someone approaching her. "Diana right?" A voice of a man asked her a question. It didn't sound condescending to her, he is really asking her if she got her name right.

Her ponytail slightly moved as Diana turned her head to catch the eyes of the man. "Yes, that's me. Hi."

His head bobbed, satisfied that he got the name right. "Dameron. Poe Dameron. Do you know which resident your assigned to?" Poe Dameron, as same as Diana, is wearing a blue scrubs. He has a stylish curly hair, stubble already forming on the entirety on his lower face.

"I got Kanata. You?" She answered, stretching her black long sleeve under her scrubs. Poe isn't wearing one.

"Really? I got Kanata too!" Diana was ready to take him as those overly-competitive co-intern that gets all-glary and jealous when one of them got a surgery. But that assumption went in the drain when he smiled. A genuine smile when he learned that they have the same resident.

Diana wasn't too cautious anymore. But still attentive. She was just glad that out of 4 co-interns she will be joining with, one of the is not an asshole. But there's got to be atleast ONE in the cluster right?

"Netal. Kenobi. Erso. Windu. Ackbar." A voice boombed, making the both of the look at the door. Kanata, their assigned resident, is still not showing up.

"You got Kanata? So did I. I'm Rose. Rose Tico." A gentle voice joined their conversation. A woman. Her bangs perfectly framed her tiny head. Her eyes flickered with amicability, Diana couldn't help but to smile.

She remembered both of them in the mixer. Their actions on the whole night were severely different from one another. Poe tried to meet people as much as possible, he shook many hands that night. The names must've mixed in his mind so he have to confirm that she was in fact, Diana. Rose on the other hand, stayed in one spot. Or so Diana thought. But she knew she didn't go around like Poe did.

Diana parted her lips, preparing herself to welcome Rose in their little, informal meet-up when,

"Tico! Dameron! Montgomery! Hux! Organa-Solo!"
