Ben Solo has always had trouble fitting in. Since young his life had been planned out - take over the family business - so things like making friends never seemed that important.

It’s his first semester of college at YU and an admin mixup leaves Ben stuck with what feels like the most annoying roommate in the world.

Poe Dameron is fascinated by his roommate - Ben Solo might be super hot with a extremely dry sense of humor, but he’s also a huge asshole. Behind the assholishess he seems a little lonely, and Poe has the perfect plan to draw him out of his shell.

What shenanigans will occur at dear old Yavin U? How will Poe fare in his quest to make Ben Solo popular (poepular) ? Will they realise their feelings for each other? Will Ben get a date to the ball or will he Defy Gravity/Let It Go?

Kriff, where had that gone?

”You’re shivering,” Kylo said, frankly.

Poe sighed. “It’s a little cold.”

”Sit with me.”

Poe supposed he didn’t have much of a choice, and he would admit that when Kylo slung his cloak about Poe’s shoulders, it felt warmer than it had any right to feel. It felt a lot, Poe thought, like resting in the wings of a great beast. Though this beast wasn’t entirely evil. That Poe knew. Mostly he just seemed angry and sad.

The way Ben sounded, it seemed like Poe’s very presence was a miracle. Poe wondered, absently, if Ben would feel the same way if he knew exactly why Kes was in medbay.

“I know.” Poe’s voice trembled a bit, like it was on the edge of a vibroblade. Then, “It’s my fault. Papa,” and it struck him that he was regressing back to what he called Kes as a child, “Got hurt because of me. Because he wanted me to come back.”

”Don’t say that,” Ben said. “Don’t you dare say that. He chose to go after you. He loved you and believed in you.” A beat, like he wanted to say more. “Anyone would."

Poe swallowed. Of course Ben would say that. He of so much faith in Poe, even when Poe blatantly didn’t deserve it.

”Hey.” Ben squeezed his shoulder, and Poe wondered when exactly Ben’s hands had gotten so big. So strong. "I’m here for you. You’re not alone.”

Poe nodded. He didn’t deserve it. He could believe, though, that Ben believed it.
