You forgot about sleep and focused on your father's journal because it was the only thing that reminded you that you weren't insane.

He wrote the rules and effects of your abilities, one of the things that you kept in mind is that when you teleport in a realm and stay there for less than a minute everything would still be the same when you back and time will not pass, however, if you spend more than a minute in that place time will resume.

You managed to take a small nap before you were called by the Supreme Leader to go to the training room, you were tired but you knew that it wouldn't be an excuse since you felt like he as already doing you a favor by training you even if he goes on missions. When you entered the room, you were greeted by the usual silence.

"Sit," he instructed you, you nodded and sat beside him, copying his position as well. "You look exhausted."

"I am. Thanks for noticing." You sighed, you put the notebook down beside you on the floor.

"Where were you last night?"

"I went back to my 'world' and... I talked to my mom about stuff, it's not that important." you shrugged.

"It's bothering you." He said. "That's not going to be very helpful with what I'm teaching you today." He stood up as you stayed on the ground. He took the staff you worked with on your first day and threw it in your direction, this time you weren't able to catch it.

You cursed under your breath as you picked it up, you pushed yourself up from the ground.

"We're really doing this now?" You asked.

"You need to gain your focus again." He stated.

"And this is how you're planning to do it?" You whined, you already regret not sleeping at all.

"Can we do something else?"

"Like what?" Kylo furrowed his eyebrows. You could see his frustration coming up. "I don't know, eat something?" Kylo scoffed at your suggestion.

"I'm serious."

He groaned in annoyance before nodding.

"Really?" you beamed at him widely.

"Yes, I'll have someone send us some food," Kylo replied, he looked at you for a moment, he couldn't help but let his lips curl up into a small smile as well, your effect on him is definitely uncontrollable.

----

You were om the floor, already digging in your food, you noticed that Kylo wasn't eating yet.

"Why aren't you eating?" You asked once you swallowed the food in your mouth.

"I'll eat later." He said in a low voice.

"Come on, I feel uncomfortable here just eating by myself while you're just standing there." He looked at you and rolled his eyes, you grinned at him and motioned for him to sit in front of you. "I've succeeded once again."

"Just because I need you to focus."

"So when am I like.. going to a fight with you guys?" You asked.

"When you've trained enough." He answered.

"But-"

"Can we just.. sit here in silence? Please?" He sighed for like the millionth time in the past hour. "You're very talkative."

"Alright, I'm sorry." After that, you stopped talking like he asked, you just stole some glances at him as you ate, you couldn't help but admire his dark hair that fell on his shoulders.

You felt comfortable around him, and you didn't know why. You've only just met him and knew so little about each other and yet you felt like you could trust him. Hell, you just talked to your work mate for the first time even if you've seen each other for years!

Your eyes lingered to the notebook beside you and remembered what your mother said about something pulling you back, maybe your mother was the one that kept you dad in your world, and she was the reason why he stayed. You don't know a lot about him, mainly because he died when you were young and never actually got to know him.

A few moment later both of your were finished with your meal, you rested for a while before you start with your training again.

"Why can't we train with the force stuff? I mean, I've already learned enough about this whole defending myself thing. Can you still not use it on me?"

"I can only use it on you if you let me, if you let your guards down." You nodded and then shrugged.

"Can we practice with it?" You insisted. "I wanna know more about it before I go home."

"Go home?" Kylo furrowed his eyebrows.

"Well, after I find out everything I know and do what I have to do." It wasn't like you missed it, it seemed like the only thing you'll miss about home is that you get to spend time with your mother. "It's not like I'll miss everything about it though, to be honest almost everything sucked back home."

"What's it like there?" Kylo grew curious about your realm, and how different it was from his. "Peaceful?"

"I wouldn't say it's peaceful. But it's beautiful, it could be so much more if only the people took more care of it." You picked up the notebook from the floor and looked through the pages. "I'm sorry If I have been.. very tiring to work with, my only explanation for it is because there was nothing like this back home, I think it would be more fun if I had... companions but I chose not to."

Kylo hummed in reply, then asked "Why not?"

"Most people out there aren't worth talking to, I wanted to find someone interesting." You said. "Then I found you, the scary and powerful Supreme Leader from outer space, who's actually a bit cute." He looked at you weirdly.

"I've killed a lot of people and you think I'm cute." He scoffed. "I could kill you here already."

To his surprise, you just laughed at him. "Alright, scary man." You twirled the staff around. "Let's get back to work."

----

That night, your whole body was sore and it felt like it was going to fall apart if you don't get some rest. You sat down your bed and took your shoes off, you thought about Kylo and how closed off he was.

He barely smiled and if he did, it would be just a smirk, you realized that everyone was so afraid of him aside from you. But why weren't you? He already told you about how he could kill you in cold blood, but everytime you think of it... all you saw was someone so misunderstood.

You rubbed your eyes and lied on your bed, you let out a breath and tried to relax. You were sure that the reason you were here was because of him, but why him? The supreme leader of the people who wants to take over the entire galaxy.

You picked up your Dad's notebook, something that you wanted to focus on more. You looked for the last page you read and saw a small sketch of your mother's face in one of them, you smiled to yourself as you looked at it, your heart warmed as you thought of how they were so in love.

Something you wished you could experience soon.

What do you guys think? I wanted to add on how Kylo and Y/n aren't very close and aren't even friends yet, so that if ever they become close you could see the progress.
