Kylo's POV:
"You never told her!"
"I've been meaning to."
"No. You should've told her the first day! No wonder she still hates me."
Luke shook his head. "She doesn't hate you."
I thought of our shared moments together and clenched my fists.
"I need her to fully trust me."
Luke spun around. "Need her? Since when do you need someone."
I didn't want to tell him about our Force bond.
"If you don't tell her I will."
"You don't make things easy do you? Fine I'll tell her when she comes back."
I wanted her to believe in me. The more I was around her the more I felt what she was feeling and the less pain I felt.
When was the last time I felt this warm inside?
I began walking down the mountain. This girl, I knew from so long ago, was changing this monster.
I didn't want to be there when he told her because I knew how she'd react.
She was sitting on a rock, meditating.
"Uh Rey?"
She looked over her shoulder then scrambled off the rock.
"What's wrong?"
I shook my head. "Nothing. Luke wants to talk to you."
"Oh okay. Look I got those rocks to balance."
She looked over her shoulder and was smiling gleefully.
I gave a small smile. It was a small practice that most young Jedi first learn.
She looked back at me. "I'll go talk to Luke."
She began walking away. "Kylo.. I-"
I looked up at her and she was running up the rocks.
Rey's POV:
I was hidden, holding in my energy as much as I could.
"You never told her!"
"I've been meaning to."
"No. You should've told her the first day! No wonder she still hates me."
There was a pause. I already told him I don't hate him. "She doesn't hate you."
"I need her to fully trust me."
He just said that? He didn't say that I need a man to protect me or some crap like that. Maybe he does need someone to protect him from himself. "Need her? Since when do you need someone?"
There was a pause.
"If you don't tell her I will."
Tell me what?
"You don't make things easy do you? Fine I'll tell her when she comes back."
I began sprinting. I stacked rocks one on the other then sat on a bigger rock to look like I'd been meditating.
"Uh Rey?"
I looked over my shoulder then scrambled off the rock. I barely made it.
"What's wrong?"
He shook his head. "Nothing. Luke wants to talk to you."
"Oh okay. Look I got those rocks to balance."
I looked over my shoulder and was smiling, hoping he'd buy it.
He gave me a small smile.
"I'll go talk to Luke."
I began walking away. "Kylo.. I-" I wanted to tell him how I really felt but decided against it. Now wasn't the time.
"You wanted to talk to me?" I've been dying to know what I supposedly don't know that Kylo and Luke do know.
Luke cleared his throat. "Yes. Rey I've been meaning to tell you this."
I stepped forward. "Tell me what?"
He sighed and sat down. "A long time ago I had a Jedi academy..."
I began stepping back.
"Now Rey you have to understand I had to do it to protect you."
He reached out for me but I shook my head.
"No. No! I didn't want any of this!"
