Kylo hooked his thumbs into his pockets. “Maybe you could show me a thing or two sometime.”

“I’d be glad to.” He reached out and trailed his fingers up Kylo’s holster to the grip of the blaster, making Kylo’s pulse jump at the proximity. “You’ll need something better than this.”

“I like this one,” Kylo said, wholly focused on Hux’s face: the sultry curve of his mouth and matching flash in his eyes.

Hux moved infinitesimally closer, his hand still on the holster. “Keep it for posterity, but you should carry a weapon that suits your hand and your style. I’ll choose it for you. I know a good fit when I see one.”

Kylo’s throat worked as he swallowed. “You don’t know my style,” he said, quieter than he had intended.

“Not yet,” said Hux. “I’ll have to watch you shoot. Do you get nervous when someone watches you?”
