16 Chapter sixteen

You woke up to a droid patting your shoulder.

"M'am, I'm sorry for waking you up but the Supreme Leader's conditions have gotten worse during the night. We need to intensify the medicine."

You looked at him and realized that he was extremely pale. He was trembling and was soaked in sweat. You stepped away to let the droids take care of him and walked towards the door.

Suddently you heard him mutter something.

He didn't have the strength to talk, so he used the Force.

"Y/n, take care of everything until I heal. The First Order is in your hands now. Tell that ginger idiot that you are the new Commander."

You smiled proudly. "Of course Master, it'll be an honour."

You immediately went to the control room and looked for general Hux. As soon as he saw you he opened his mouth probably to insult you but didn't get the chance. He immediately was lifted in the air and choked with the Force and you two both heard Ren's voice in your head.

"Don't you dare Hux. She's your superior! I'll kill you if you don't respect her!", then the General fell on the ground touching his throat and catching his breath.

Being in charge of the ship wasn't as easy as you thought. You had to always stand to attention. Ren helped you once in a while by talking to you through the Force.

All the stormtroopers started to respect you and almost feared you. You had made yourself a name. During the day you were extremely busy with work, but every night you were by his side. You always reporters him what had happened during the day, never letting go of his hand. You knew he already knew everything but you liked to talking to him and he liked listening to you.

He realized it was the very first time someone was taking care of him with pure love. He felt happy and relieved. He allowed himself to show you his weaknesses, he knew he could trust you.

After one month one evening you got into his hospital room and found him standing and waiting for you. You smiled out of happiness. He was wearing his cloak and had his helmet ready to be worn. You got in front of him and he immediately grabbed your hand and kissed it. Your cheeks went on fire. He lowered his gaze to you and you realized that even if he had recovered he didn't look at you like the first days you had gotten kidnapped.

"Master, I'm glad you're fine. The First Order have missed you. I have missed you. I was terrified when I saw you get shot. I thought -"

You didn't have the time to end your sentence.

Ren grabbed you by your waist and put a hand behind your head, gently brushing your hair. You stared into each other's eyes and then you looked at his full lips. They were so close to yours. Your heart started to race. He didn't say anything for a few seconds.

Then he kissed you.
