Close Talking

Shout out to emuisaollie who I know adores psych and still continues to read this trash for some reason
Also shoutout to Fictonloverthefirst and MusicalSithPizza10 who are rather really really sweet and warms my cold dead heart!!!
Thank y'all!!!
And as usual inspired by the clip above, also I listened to a lot of journey while writing this so you can thank them to,
also as usual, only the beginning is like the clip above which you should totally watch
but also this kind of got away from my original thing I was going for but I think it turned out better anyways and I'm going to assume y'all will agree
hope this will be a little more sweet then last week, but I also have two more chapters written and if I finish up this last one then I can start weekly updates which I think is better then radio silence so I hope that's ok
and please do comment it puts the sweetest smile on my face!

Rey for all intents and purposes does not push him back when he leans in. She breathes deeply, staring right into the most beautiful brown eyes she has ever seen. Those lips stop just shy of her own, finding their place with barley any space. He just looks down at her. She feels like she should almost complete the kiss. A little push forward and they could never come back to what they have now.

"I don't want to ruin this" She says, not expecting his lips to pull with her own when she does.

"I understand" Kylo's lips ghost over her own. Breath tickling the sensitive hairs on Rey's face.

"I want to" Lost in the moment. His lips are so close, it's so hard to focus.

"I know" He moves then, kissing her forehead before resting his own on hers.

"I don't want you to leave me" He pulls her in to himself. Hugging her close to himself. He's so tall it feels like his whole body is trying to eat her when he pulls her close to his chest.

"I won't" This close she can feel his reply reverberate in his chest. His head rests on her own. He's got a fiery temper, but he also has a fiery temperature. It almost reminds her of her home in the desert.

"I know... I know" She tries to hide her face the best she can in the fabric of his shirt. "I just don't want to be left behind again"

He pulls her away from him then. His grip semi-tight on her arms, holding her just out of reach. His eyes flicking between her own. "Rey, I will never ever leave you. You are my life. My world. You saved me from myself"

"You did that all on your own"

"I did it because of you. Because of your light. I have been many things in my life Rey. But I will never let myself become the person who abandons. I would rather die. I would rather die a thousand deaths then to see you suffer one day. I understand if you don't want this, if you'll never want this. And I would never push it on you. But I swear on my life Rey, that I will never ever consciously hurt you, in any way shape or form. Please tell me you believe that, believe me"

"Kylo, I-"

"You don't need to answer, you never have to do something you don't want to. Just understand, that if I had the choice between you and the Galaxy, I would choose you every time. There is nothing I wouldn't do for you. If you want a family I would do it for you, if you want me to leave and never come back I would do it for you. I wouldn't want to Rey, but I would do it for you. I would do anything for you. Please understand"

Rey can see him searching her eyes again. More feverish this time. Trying to find some sense of understanding, of acceptance.

She does the only thing she can think of,

She kisses him.

It's a simple press at first. Just a smashing of faces that leads to two hurt noses and some hurt pride.

After fiddling with her nose for a second, because oww that hurt. Rey catches Kylo on the cusp of doing the same thing. As soon as his eyes lift, they lock. The air around them seems electrifying now. Like touching someone would shock them just slightly. Then the looming dark mass moves towards her, and their lips are touching again. Slow and soft and entirely unreal. It feels like a movie scene. His hand rests on her cheek and his thumb slowly caresses her face. Both of her hands make their way through his hair, trying to keep herself present before she loses herself completely in the kiss. His lips move like poetry on her own, sweet and sensual and over entirely way to quickly. Kylo rests his head between her shoulder and her neck while he catches his breath.

"You don't know how long I've waited to do that" his eyes peak through his hair and Rey can't help the smile on her face.

"Five years three days about... Give or take 7 hours" He puffs out a breath of laugher.

"I guess you do know" The smile reaches his eyes, making him look like an entirely new creature.

"I guess I have a new reason to count the days"

"Oh?"

"Now I can start a page for all the days you love me"

"You would never stop filling it"

"I think I can live with that"

They kiss a lot more after that.
