"i hate him."

"who?"

"that prick who now lives across the street with his mother."

"and why is that?"

poe looked almost amused as rey struggled to piece together her reason.

"because."

"because what?"

"because i hate him and i know that i hate him. nothing you say will change that."

"do you even know the guy?"

"no..."

"then why would you hate him?"

poe continued to scrub at the countertops, whilst listening to rey's rant about her new neighbor across the street.

"because...he just has that aura about him, something that makes you hate him."

he simply rolled his eyes at rey's response. knowing that what she said wasn't her reason.

"that's not a real reason you know?"

"well it's a real reason to me, now leave me alone."

"okay, okay. chill rey."

she crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes, facing him.

"i am chill."

poe made face.

"sure rey sure."

"i am though!"

he laughed nervously, setting down the rag for a moment to face his friend.

"people who are calm and chill don't hate random people for no reason."

"i have my reason," rey crossed her arms. "i just don't feel like saying it."

"uh huh, sure."

"you're so exasperating sometimes poe."

"why thank you, i try," he flashed her a smile before walking off to the back.

"i hate you dameron."

"love you too reyhanne."

"what did i say about using that name?"

"that you'll kill me if i ever said it!" poe replied from the back room, laughing.

"i'm not backing down on that threat!"

"i know!"

rey smiled before running towards the back, only to be stopped by an annoyed cough.

"excuse me? you work here right?"

"yes i do," rey went fully behind the counter top to face the customer that had just come in. "but why are you here? i don't mean to be rude, but we are closed...wait how'd you even get inside?"
