All the Way (Kylo Ren x Reader)

Conference Rooms

Kylo's POV

"Supreme Leader! We just received a message from the Resistance. It's about their prisoners."

Kylo turned around towards the small woman that had just delivered the message.

"Go on."

"They agreed. They sent us the coordinates, it's a neutral city in the outer rims. They want the meeting to be in roughly 12 hours. It's doable, we are preparing a crew right now, but we need to leave within an hour."

Kylo raised his hand, "I want Cardo, Ap'lek and General Hux. The General can decide which officers." he stopped briefly and watched the woman alert them. He turned back around, his arms behind his back and looked outside into the black nothingness, "I want MD-2442 as the commanding doctor."

He could hear her fingers tapping on the datapad.

"Sir, MD-2442 is just a combat medic. We would usually send a chief resident doctor."

"I trust her. Bring me one of the new stormtrooper armour. In her size. In the meanwhile brief Hux."

"Yes, Supreme Leader." The woman said and left the room, and so did the continuous tapping of her fingers on the datapad.

The dark endless depths of space were showing so much and so little at the same time. From this far away there was no way to see the planets orbiting the small glowing dots. So many of those planets had life on them, species were dying out and emerging to the top of the food chain. It was easy to get lost. It was even easier to feel small and insignificant.

How small and insignificant MD-2442 had been in the beginning. Just a combat medic that had been randomly assigned to follow him into the cave systems of Eks. She didn't stand out much at first. Somehow she had made it out of the caverns with him and the other stormtroopers. Her nervousness was almost unbearable as she got on the back of his speeder and what had been even more unbearable was how long she took to shoot.

Then he had gotten hit and she saved him. Not really anything unusual. What was unusual was her removing her own shrapnel shard by herself. At the time Kylo hadn't even noticed it, he had been too busy concentrating on the pain not getting any worse. Ap'lek had asked him whether or not he knew about it. Normally Kylo could easily tell the emotions of others, especially pain, with her he couldn't. He had not realized it until Ap'lek had pointed it out.

Her worry for him was what he had sensed mostly during the night. It had almost been protective, especially towards General Hux. Her work had been exceptional, one of the reasons he had kept her as his attending physician.

She genuinely cared about him, and not because she was afraid of getting killed. Apart from worry, admiration and the occasional fear, the only other thing he had ever felt from her was trust. Blind trust. Foolish. But he still appreciated it.

He would be lying if he said that he didn't like being admired. It was genuine from her though. Most people were just intimidated or wanted to get on his good side. Outwardly they were the same but their thoughts and feelings showed otherwise.

That's why he had allowed her to join the interrogation with 'Mr. Stares'. Stares was one of the more adept force sensitives Kylo had captured and while he was mostly useless he displayed a highly developed force sense. Somehow the Doc disrupted him. It was what had gotten Mr. Stares so scared. Why exactly he didn't understand back then but now...

Then there was her ability to sneak up on him. He usually sensed every other being around him. Every single one. Every man. Every woman. Every fly. It did not matter. But he could not sense her. There were a few exceptions to the rule, but she was the only one capable of sneaking up on Kylo Ren.
