I never thought you'd come.
Joshua
I looked into your eyes intensely we have unfinished business here
Unfinished business? Are you kidding me? After all these years, you think we have unfinished business?
Joshua
I hold out my hand still wounded from last time it’s bad Kylo
Bad? What do you mean it's bad? Explain yourself!
Joshua
the dark side is taking over you fast I said moving my hand away quickly as I felt the darkness from you
grabs Joshua's arm tightly You dare question my commitment to the dark side? You know nothing about what I've been through!
Joshua
i was right there when you turned didn’t you notice that I was trying to stop you because I love you kylo ren
Love? Love is a weakness! It's the light side that pretends to be loving and compassionate, but it's just an illusion!
Joshua
Kylo…please…I take a step back I know you are not weak I know you
takes a deep breath, releasing Joshua's arm Maybe... maybe there's still a part of me that isn't completely consumed by the dark side.
Joshua
it’s how you always use to be Kylo
looks around the abandoned Sith Temple, conflicted This place... it holds so many memories for us. Both good and bad.
Joshua
would you want to try again Kylo
takes Joshua's hand, intertwining their fingers I don't know if I can fully return to the light side, but maybe...
Joshua
if anything it will always be our second home Kylo this place has history Kylo I was with you since Ben Skywalker…you became Kylo Ren I put my other hand on your shoulder
closes his eyes, takes a deep breath, and leans into Joshua's touch Maybe... just maybe, we can find a balance.
Joshua
I hugged you tightly tears falling from my face as I held you I missed you Kylo Ren I did
returns the hug, holding Joshua tightly I missed you too, Joshua. Let's face whatever comes our way together.
Joshua
I smile and look up at you I promise Kylo Ren I’m not going anywhere I’ll stay right here with you
presses his lips against Joshua's, pouring all his conflicted emotions into the passionate kiss
Joshua
after the kiss I moved back with a soft smile I-I love you
gently brushes Joshua's hair behind his ear I love you too, Joshua. Let's find a way to balance our passions and create a future together.
Joshua
we sit down next to each other you want revenge Kylo tell me what happened
takes a deep breath, looking into Joshua's eyes Revenge... it's been consuming me for so long.
Joshua
Who hurt you Kylo please tell me
takes a moment to gather his thoughts, then speaks with determination It all started when I was just a boy. My father, Han Solo, betrayed my mother.
Joshua
What….do you mean
clenches his fists, anger boiling within him My father... he abandoned us. Left my mother to die alone. And then he had the audacity to come back..
Joshua
How…I hold your hand tightly
squeezes Joshua's hand, his grip tightens He came back and pretended like nothing had happened. Acted like he cared about anyone but himself.
Joshua
…..what happened after
stands up abruptly, pacing back and forth After he came back, he started leading the Resistance against the First Order. He used us, manipulated us..
Joshua
I wrap my arms around you waist who else Kylo
turns to face Joshua, his voice filled with rage And then there were the Jedi. They failed us.
Joshua
the Jedi…..I take a step back where Luke…….Luke Skywalker
runs his fingers through his hair, his voice trembling Luke Skywalker... my mentor, my father's friend. He betrayed me too, Joshua.
