I'm sticking with this! I will finish it! I just don't know when. BTW Rey. It's not safe to pet wild animals.
Rey watched him sleep. She had spent all week following him, hiding herself. Getting ready for the ultimate tag. She slipped across his room as soft as a shadow. Her prey was sleeping on his back, torso bared.
Stopping at his bedside, Rey knelt down. The plan was simple. Run her fingers across his chest before tickling him awake. While he was still struggling with waking up and laughing she would jump back, call "tag" and be gone before he knew what hit him.
First problem was that he was so tall that she couldn't reach him while sitting on the floor. She stood and gently eased herself down onto the edge of his mattress. There was a moment of silent contemplation. She liked him this way. Relaxed, unguarded, and most importantly, Silent.
Ben talking had it's high points too. He had a hypnotic way of speaking with his amazingly deep voice that instantly relaxed her. Cautiously, she traced a finger over his lips, testing the depths of his sleep. They were smooth to the touch.
Since she was there, Rey thought to herself, might as well enjoy it. The curious fingertips trailed up and down the bridge of his nose, running across his cheekbones until they buried themselves in his silken hair. Damn. What kind of world is it where a guy has better hair than any girl alive?
After twisted on errant lock around her finger a few times, Rey decided it was time to get down to business. A hand caught her wrist. He's awake!
Kylo met her eyes as he sat up, his sheets pooling around his body. "What were you doing, little scavenger?"
"I was trying to tag you." Why was her voice so breathless?
"Did you?"
"Yes."
"Good." He whispered in a voice like silk. "Now it's my turn."
Kylo flipped her around smoothly so that she lay pinned beneath him. "Tag."
He captured her lips with his own.
And that's why we don't pet wild animals. Next chapter will be this scene from his point of view. Ikr? It finally happened.
