A/N: So I saw TFA and I'm now Kylux trash. Sorry… you guys are going to get all the nonsense from it. So enjoy this Soulmate AU.
Hux's POV
The first time Hux met Kylo Ren, he was not at all in the best of moods. The First Order had just lost a major fight with the Resistance, and none of his Stormtroopers were complying. Hux's flagship ship was in disarray, and only Captain Phasma was competent enough to even attempt to make repairs. And now, he had this… this supposed knight of Ren to deal with. It wasn't as if he hadn't read Kylo's file the night before. Apparently Supreme Leader Snooke trusted Hux with his prized pupil. And of course this 'child of darkness' had quite a bit of a temper. All of this, and the news that Ren was the reason Luke Skywalker left in the first place, really didn't help any opinions Hux might have formed.
However, none of that should have justified his actions. Before Kylo Ren had even given his greeting, Hux had already spoken;
"I hate you."
The black swathed figure in the doorway stiffened, and Hux could have sworn he saw Ren grab at his wrist. However, Hux brushed it off as him grasping for his light sabre, as it was resting in his hand a moment later. The air was thick with tension, and for a brief moment, the general almost regretted his words. Almost… until Ren spoke up.
"General." The man nodded stiffly at Hux, then turned to leave. There was a fleeting moment when Ren's cold presence seemed to linger, and the entire room seemed frozen.
"What are you dimwits looking at?!" The troopers stuttered out apologies, and returned to their work. The general let out a sigh. Just perfect…
Kylo's POV
The knight of Ren made his way back to the make-shift quarters assigned to him. His arm throbbed uncontrollably, and his movements were brisk. After all, it wasn't every day you met your soul mate. Of course, most people's soulmate's first words to them weren't 'I hate you'. Normally, it was 'hello' or 'sorry', but never an expression of utter hatred.
However, it was what it was, and Kylo Ren had been stuck with those three words since birth. The poor boy had grown up seeing that every day, and never one feeling as if the world gave a damn.
Now, he sat in his room, trying to stop the words from burning even more. There was no way this stupid Irishman was his soulmate. He was rude, seemingly cold, and distant… oh wait. Yeah, Kylo Ren now understood exactly why this was his fate.
