12 Chapter twelve

You got out of the training room and headed to your room, but you did a long walk hoping to run into your master.

You found him walking around checking if everything was in order.

You couldn't know that he was doing exactly the same thing as you.

As soon as he saw you he was almost afraid you'd have heard his heartbeat racing. He immediately felt vulnerable to feelings, his mother's words echoed in his head "you love her and she's the one who can give you happiness". He understood that for once Leia's words were true. He needed you.

And there, standing in the middle of the corridor, Kylo Ren decided he was going to be human for once, not just a destructive weapon. He had never loved before, so he had no idea what to do, but he promised himself to put all his effort on this.

He walked to you and said "What are you doing here?". He blamed himself for having kept his mask on, he always sounded cold and aggressive in that robotic voice. That was how he wanted to be seen by everyone, everyone but you.

"Sorry master, I'm heading to my room". Why were you there if you were going to your room? Maybe you had taken the wrong way. An idea popped up in his head.

"Maybe I could show you around so you won't risk to get lost."

You hoped he wouldn't notice you were blushing. "It would be extremely useful, thank you master ". That was the second kind thing he had done to you, you started to daydream for a second. Was he ACTUALLY trying to be kind to you? Was he trying to court you?

You two started to walk through hallways and rooms. Then you got into an empty hallway. There was no one to be seen except for you. It was really long. "Where does this corridor lead master?"

"It leads to the landing platforms or to the weapons depot. Which one would you be interested to see first?". You thought about this a moment and then said "Maybe the weapons depot if it doesn't bother you, Master."

"That's good for me. Anyway... you can refer to me as Kylo Ren. No need to call me Master."

"Oh... well thank you, Ren". You were really surprised by that, but you didn't know he was more surprised than you from how much he already adored how his name sounded coming out of your lips. He secretly imagined you saying it whispering and moaning in his ear. He immediately cut off those thoughts not to completely loose self control.

You got into the weapons depot and he gave you a tour explaining you every weapon there was. Your attention was caught by what clearly was a lightsaber. Before you could say anything the lightsaber flew behind you and as you turned around to face Ren you found him without his mask, looking at you and handing you the lightsaber. You gave him a questioning look.

He couldn't stop looking at those eyes full of questions and a light reflection of hope. You looked like a little girl, and your height didn't help you to look older.

"This is for you if you want it. You need to defend yourself.". There was your smile. That smile he was realising he loved so much. You took the lightsaber and ignited it. A wonderful red plasma came out cracking.

You stepped back in order not to risk to harm Ren and pointed the weapon at him with a mocking angry face.

Kylo Ren smiled.
