Rey's POV:

      "We're winning, but I have to give you guys credit you not give up." He says

"How many people are still alive?" I ask

"Few hundred maybe, but we plan to have them all dead in about 2 or 3 days." Kylo says throwing his helmet aside.

My heart feels like it drops into my stomach, when he says that and I know Kylo senses it too.

"So you've learned how to meditate." He asks

"Ya I checked out this book from the library and it taught me how to." I say

"If you would join the dark side, you would've learned to meditate far long ago and right now you would be one of the most powerful people in the galaxy." Kylo says

"I doubt that, and I felt your presence when you walked out of Snokes throne room, you had anger and rage but also you were afraid. I can tell your afraid of Snoke Kylo, I am sense it."

I could tell that I shouldn't of said that, because he starts getting really angry.

"You don't know anything! Your not a sith or a Jedi so how would you know!" He yells at me his face trying red.

"It's not like I can sense that your afraid too, you have someone special out fighting, don't you think I know what, why else would you be asking me about it every time the force connects us." He says

I feel my checks heat up and I can tell that I'm blushing but also I get angry too. We stand there giving each other the evil eye, not saying anything. Right as I'm about to say something I feel someone grab my shoulders and Shake me. I feel myself losing focus and the force link gets broken and, I open my eyes to see Finn shaking my shoulders with a worried look on his face. He sighs in relief when I open my eyes,
"What?!" I say

"Few your awake, man I thought you were diying or something your were shaking, and mumbling to yourself." He says helping me up.

"No I found a book on meditating and I was practicing it." I say

"Oh, ok" he says seeming embarrassed.

"So how's you get in here without a key?" I say trying to change the subject.

"Oh, BB-8, she knows a way to unlock anything." Finn says grinning and then looking at BB-8.

"Is the lock on my door broken now." I say raising one of my eyebrows looking at her.

"Ya, I made sure I fixed it and it still worked." She says beeping.

"Ok, as long as it still works it's fine." I say and she sticks out her lighter thumbs up, and I smile.

"So do you wanna go get supper?" I ask Finn then noticing that he's still in his mechanic clothes.

"ya, sure let me just go wash up and put on some fresh clothes ." He says

"Ok,meet you back here in about a half an hour?" I ask.

"Sure, ok, See you then." He says as he walks out the door.

I sigh and walk over to the mirror and notice how sweaty I am, I must've been sweating a lot when I was meditating. I think to myself,
"Hey BB-8, I'm gonna take a shower. Ok?" I say and hear her beep.

I take out fresh clothes, and walk into the bathroom, and start running the water. I take my hair out and get a towel out. I get in the shower and wash my hair then rinsing off my body before getting out, and drying off. I put on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt, the shirt seems, big on me, bigger than usual. Probably just the clothing. I think to myself and I shrug it off and walk out of the bathroom. BB-8 rolls over to me,
"you almost ready? You have about 5 or ten minuets." She says.

"Oh and that shirt look really big on you are you sure there the right size?" She asks.

"Ya its a small what I usually wear. But I'll try a and out on a different shirt if it looks that bad." I say seachring my drawer.

I find a brand new shirt, with the Resistance logo on it and put it on.

"Ugg it's still really big." I complain, but then the doorbell rings and I don't have time to change.

"Time to go."BB-8 says as she follows me to the door, I meet Finn there waiting on the other side and he smiles when I open the door.
"Ready?" He asks

I nod my head and we walk down the hallway together, BB-8 trailing by my heels.
"I wonder what the special is tonight." Finn says trying to start a conversation

"Ya me too, I hope it's not Galaxy goulash." I say smiling looking at Finn.

"I should've listened to you, I don't know what I was thinking." He says starting to laugh.

I smile
"But you learned your lesson right?" I say looking over at him

"Oh ya, I will never in my life eat that again, why don't they take it off the menu it's a health hazard." Finn asks curiously.

"Oh, because that's what the non human species eat. Well that's what they like anyway." I say

We get to the cafeteria and the special for tonight is a taun taun burgers. We go through the line and get our food. We sit down and Finn starts digging into his food. As usual I'm not that hungry, I eat a few pieces of my fruit and take sips of my milk. When Finn gets done with his burger, i just smile and look at him.
"Do you want my burger too?" I ask knowing I can't eat the whole thing.

Finn looks at me with sad eyes and says
"How about this I'll eat half of it, and you eat half of it." He says taking the burger and cutting it in half.

"That's ok, you can have it all." I say

"No you have barely eaten anything over the past few days, I'm worried about you Rey, please eat it." He says as he looks at me with kind eyes

"I, I guess I'll try." I say as I pick up the half sandwich that Finn gave me.

I watch him gobble down the other half of the sandwich. He looks up and frowns when he sees that I haven't taken a bite.
"I'm not hungry." I say frowning.

"Well then I guess we'll be here for a while because we're not leaving till you eat that sandwich." Finn says

I sigh and take a small bite out of the sandwich, I continue eating it until I have like five bites left and I'm so full I feel like I could explode.
"Finn can I be done I'm really full." I say complaining.

He looks me in the eyes, making sure I'm not lying and then says
"Ok" and I dump my plate.

We walk back to the rooms, but tonight I feel exhausted.
"I'm sorry Finn, I'm really tired tonight. I think I'm just gonna go strait to bed. I say yawning,

"Good I'm exhausted too, they gave me a raise and it's a lot more work than I did in the past." He says looking at me, and I could see in his eyes that he was tired too.

"Finn! That's great! I'm so proud tomorrow when you get off from work we're gonna celebrate ok?" I say smiling and hugging him. He doesn't hug back at first but soon he returns it.
We say good night and then go our separate ways to our rooms. BB-8 follows me, and I let her. When I get to my room I put my pajamas on and then go to talk to BB-8.
"So are you gonna stay here for the night?" I ask her

"Ya, I thought it'd be fun to have a sleepover." She says rolling back and forth happily.

"Ok, do you need to charge overnight or anything?" I ask smiling.

"No, I was charged all yesterday so I'm good for a while." She says

"Could you power me off though?" She asks

I nod and lean down and touched her power bouton.

I then get under the covers and close my eyes to go to sleep, but again the force connects me and Kylo, and I meet with him again. He's meditating, but he senses my presence,
"Update on the war" He says opening his eyes and grinning.

"We have killed most of the Resistance fighters, the ones that are left have retreated into space, but we have ships following them and it's just a matter of time before they run out of fuel." Kylo says looking at me.

My eyes start to fill up with tears but I push them back. I can't be weak in front of Kylo. I think in my head. "Please let the rest of the fighters retreat! Have them come back to our base. I don't even know if the person that I care for is alive I just want them to come home!" I plead hoping he'll listen to me.

"I'll do it under one condition, you'll join the First Order." He says
