--------- Steve knew he should have been minding his own business. But he could hear the way that the woman’s boss was yelling at her (( Rey, he could have sworn he saw on her name tag )) and well, he was doing EVERYTHING in his power to offer her some kind of way to get a smile on her face. He made sure to be as polite as possible while ordering and he had been going out of his way to add a few jokes into the conversation. He had been sipping at his coffee, looking out the window briefly before he heard small footsteps approaching his table.

The check. Of course.

He’d been sitting here for a while, but truthfully, he’d been enjoying a bit of relaxation. He left home weeks ago -- he’d been exploring ever since. He was tired of the same old day to day activities. He needed ADVENTURE. And sure, maybe packing up all of his things and traveling the country in some beat up truck wasn’t the best option, it was what he decided on. “Thanks.” He said as he took the black booklet from her, putting a twenty in it before handing it back to her, keeping his hold on it as he looked at her. The diner was practically empty -- he wasn’t even sure if this place got much business at all. 

“You ever think about getting out of here ??” Maybe he was being too forward. Not maybe -- he was DEFINITELY being too forward. “I fully enjoyed the service, but it’s kind of obvious that you hate it here,” He said, unable to stop a soft chuckle from escaping his lips. “‘Cause I can help with that.” Did he sound like a stalker ?? He was positive he did, but it didn’t even matter. Not at this point. Even if she thought he was the creepiest person alive, he could just leave and never see this place ever again.

You’re not alone. It sure felt like she was. Maybe she was being a pessimist -- maybe she was just thinking about things the wrong way. But is sure as HELL felt like she was alone. More alone than she’d been in a long time. It had been over three weeks since she had talked to her dad. Maybe it was for the better. Maybe it wasn’t. Honestly, she hadn’t really been close to him -- not since her mom had died. “That’s what EVERYONE says. But I am, Rey.” Olivia looked around her room, sitting against the headboard on her head and pulling her knees up against her chest. “I guess it doesn’t really matter though, right ??” A sigh. If her father didn’t care, well, neither did she.

This wasn’t a place he’d ever wanted to come to again.  He’d been back twice since the Lars’ family’s murder-- once to rescue Han from the clutches of Jabba the Hutt, but the second time he had in fact come back to this exact place, looking for answers.  He’d known his way through the Jundland Wastes, out past the Dune Sea; but for Rey to find this place, she would have needed a guide.  That was exactly the point-- the person who had lived here had not wanted to be found.  

“We should go inside,” He said softly as the two suns dipped below the horizon and darkness began to fall.  “It will be cold soon, and the Sand People will be out.” The break in the day’s heat brought all manner of creatures out from their homes.  

Luke pushed the door to the small dwelling open, held it for Rey.  It smelled of age-- was something of a wreck since the last time Luke had been had included a fight for his life-- but most everything was still intact.  Artoo rolled into the interior and lit up the inside of the home.

secret relationship starters from ( here ) / @bxwtothefirstorder​ as much as rey wanted to sate his fear and say that poe wouldn’t tell a soul, she knew that if given enough alcohol he would sing it. it was a huge secret, and after much deliberation she decided to kiss at the nape of his neck to distract him. “are you tired of running around?” rey asked him curiously, her lips pressing at the warm skin as she felt the throb of his throat when he choked back slightly. she wouldn’t have necessarily minded if the truth came out; they were both consenting adults and though it was an unlikely match to have happened she was grateful to have crossed paths with him. “you’re the one with all the money. maybe you should pay him,” she teased, her breath hot against his neck as she laid more soft kisses to ease his fears about the pilot.

Hux sighed at Rey’s question. Yes, he was tired of running around. He was tired of having to keep this all in secret, he was tired of being afraid when would Snoke or Ren snuff him out. He knew Rey wanted to spend their time together without worrying all the time, but this didn’t stop him from planning their life in advance. As a matter of fact, he was three steps ahead of Snoke and Ren, but he still thought this was not enough.
