Rey stretched as she walked into the kitchen. She was simply wearing an overlarge shirt of his. Ben was leaning against the counter with a steaming cup of coffee in his hands. She walked up to him and took the cup from his hands.
"I didn't know you drank coffee," she stated before blowing on the drink and taking a sip. Her nose crinkled at the bitterness.
Ben took the cup back from her. "You never really had the chance to find out." He took a sip and hummed in appreciation. "I have missed this." He kissed her on the forehead. "Would you like a cup?"
"No, it's too bitter." She shook her head slightly. "What's for breakfast?"
"What do you want for breakfast?"
"Are you saying you'll cook me anything I want?" she teased.
"No, you will be cooking anything you want." He stood up straight and walked behind her.
"What?"
"You need to learn." He rubbed a hand on her butt before slapping it. She let out a surprised squeak.
"What if I was thinking of other things besides breakfast?" She wiggled her butt at him.
"I could maybe oblige you." He set his mug down on the opposite counter and pressed himself against her from behind. He pressed her hands against the counter with his own and kissed her neck. Her breath quickened. She pushed her hips back so she could rub his quickly forming boner. "Stop that," he gently commanded.
"Why?" she asked as she continued to rub herself up against him.
"Because it's distracting."
"I thought the whole point of this was distraction." She stifled a laughed as a small moan escaped from his lips.
He bit her neck. "Get on the counter." He stepped back releasing her. She deftly jumped up. He got on his knees before her and spread her legs. His hands pushed her shirt up as his head and tongue found her clit. He gave it a small flick with his tongue before starting to devour her. This would be the best meal he would hand, especially if she was cooking. He smiled at the thought and at the moan she tried to hide.
"Stop that," she said.
"Stop what?" he asked quickly before returning to his meal.
"Making me," she moaned again, "lose control."
"No."
"Why?"
"Because that is the point." As he sucked and nibbled, he expected her respond but she kept quiet. Good, he thought to himself.
She was quickly becoming incoherent. She tried to keep quiet. She didn't know how thin these walls were and she didn't want to disturb Rose or anyone else near here. It was becoming very difficult to hide her noises. Ben did something, she didn't know what, but it almost made her scream. She was getting close. She was slightly disconcerted at how quick of work her was making of her. As she descended into pleasurable oblivion, she was distantly aware of Rose walking out of her quarters.
"I hope you plan on cleaning that counter once you're done," she said dryly. "I hope your kitchen is stocked, mine isn't and I'm starving."
Ben didn't reply he was helping Rey ride out her orgasm.
She opened the fridge. "Yes, orange juice. I haven't had this in ages. It's super hard to find." She took it out of the fridge and set it down on a counter that wasn't occupied by Rey. She started searching though the cabinets for a glass.
Ben removed his head from between Rey's legs and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. "I'll make sure you get your kitchen stocked." He stood up and grabbed his coffee mug and took another sip. He had been thrown off by Rose's nonchalance and needed the fortification.
Rey leaped off the counter and grabbed a cloth to wipe down the counter with. She then turned to stare at Rose who hand found a glass and was enjoying her orange juice.
Rose picked up on the fact that they were off kilter because of her. "I used to share living space with Poe and Finn. If I had stayed in my room during the countless times, they were having sex in the living space I would have never left. I got used to it after a while." She shrugged her shoulders.
"Why were they having sex in the living space?" Ben asked. "It seems kind of rude."
"Their room was basically a closet. Plus, I didn't mind. I started to enjoy watching after a while." She sipped her orange juice. "So, what's on the agenda today?"
"Well, I will be getting debriefed about the weapon status this morning. While I'm on the bridge I plan on planting our little trojan horse. I want you with me. The more Hux sees you the more he will get used to you." He exchanged a glace with Rey.
Rose noticed. "What?"
"While watching the security of feed of your discussion with Hux," Rey started.
"You have security fee of that?"
They ignored her question.
"You didn't seem like yourself when you came back so we were worried and watched so that we could help."
Rose shrugged her shoulders and sighed.
"Well, what we noticed while watching that Hux kinda has a thing for you."
This threw Rose through a loop. "Wait, what? How? Why?"
"As he turned away from you in those last moments," Ben explained, "he was turning away to hide a boner."
"We also noticed," Rey said hurriedly before Rose could interrupt, "that you had a similar reaction to him."
"What is your plan?" Rose didn't like that they were scheming about her and Hux.
"We don't have a full one yet. All we know is that we need to push you together in some way. We need to keep him off balance."
"I'll give it a shot. But the moment I'm out I'm out. No trying to convince me otherwise."
They nodded.
"Now, Rey, my love, what do you want to cook for yourself?"

Hux tried not to stare as he watched Rose walk onto the bridge behind Kylo. He didn't know if he could be in her presence without reaction, without getting lost in thinking about the way he wanted to please her. He flexed his fingers behind his back.
"Good morning, Proctor." Hux stood rigidly, focusing his attention on Kylo. He didn't want to give her a second glance that she noticed.
"Good morning, General Hux. I believe I need to be debriefed on the status of the weapon."
Kylo's formality gave Hux, and the rest of the officers pause. Kylo was never formal or polite.
"Progress has been slow, two weeks ago a group of storm troopers sabotaged the weapon in such a way that we are having trouble fixing it."
Kylo looked around at the faced of his officers and noticed them looking uncomfortable and almost relieved about the status.
"Continue," Kylo urged.
Hux took a quick glance at Rose before speaking again, "It is estimated to take another three weeks to fix."
As Hux started talking again, Kylo removed the trojan horse from his pocket and slipped it into a port. Hux noticed the movement and watched as the device was placed.
"I am assured," Hux carried on, "that that is the fastest it can be done."
"How long would it take to completely rebuild the weapon instead." He didn't know how far they had gotten and what exactly the trojan horse sabotaged. He had to be safe.
"Five months."
"I know we are all eager for this to be completed but if it is to work it needs to be done right. Start over. Take tomorrow and the next day to disassemble what we have and then start anew after."
Something flashed over Hux's face. Kylo couldn't quite tell what it was.
Hux was relieved, after studying the plans in detail he knew how to incapacitate the weapon without anyone realizing it. He couldn't do it through without the weapon being rebuilt from the bottom. He looked at Rose and saw a small smile on her face. He didn't know why it was there, he just wanted to stare at it as long as he could. She felt his stare and looked at him and the wistful look in his eyes. When he noticed her looking back, he quickly looked away.
Rose didn't know if she liked the way she saw Hux looking at her. Her small smile quickly turned into confusion. She wanted to know why he was looking at her that way, and why she kind of liked it. Why she wanted him to look at her more and maybe without any clothes on her. The thought sent a shiver down her spine. She didn't want to be thinking that way, about him so she shoved the thought out of her mind. Well, she tried to. She couldn't help but imagine him walking around her taking the sight of her naked body in as she stood before him. Of him walking up to her fully clothed and running a gloved finger down her bare body. She mentally shook her head as the image brought heat to her face and crotch.
"I will make the order to disassemble the weapon right away," Hux said slowly as he forced his mind back to the matter at hand.
"Thank you. I will be in my quarters getting some other work done if you need me." Kylo whisked out of the room with Rose at his heels.
