Kylo's POV

"Mr. Ren, turn please." He turned and gave the camera  a sulking face. "Lovely."

The photographer walked around him. His face was grim and watched his movements. Kylo's strong legs were straining against the seams of his tight black pants. His black sweater was making him antsy and he continued to glare into the camera. 

"Beautiful." The photographer nodded and they finally turned the bright light off. 

"Now shall we get on to the interview?" 

"Yes." Kylo's face remained a steel mask. 

US: How does it feel to be bringing home more gold medals?

Kylo: It feels great. I am honored to represent our great country in the winter sports.

US: Now I know Armitage 'Armie' Hux is one of your best friends, but also a huge competitor. How do you two do it?

Kylo: We tend to keep comps out of it. He is dating our trainer so women are no problem, plus we have been rivals for long enough that he knows who will win.

US: Are you nervous in the start gate?

Kylo: Of course. I will probably never not be nervous. Nerves are just a part of the job. You learn that it will always be there so you control it. 

US: How does it feel to be named America's Bad Boy, officially?

Kylo: Umm *laughs* kinda weird. Being honest, I am still not used to getting tweets that say 'daddy' or Instagram comments saying stuff like 'I wish you could eat me whole daddy'. Stuff like that is so foreign to me. And Hux. He kinda was dragged along for the ride. 

US: Will you go for the next Winter Olympics?

Kylo: Yes!

US: Won't you be considered a little old?

Kylo: I mean, yeah, but I love to ski and no one is gonna tell me when I can or can't perform. I'll retire when I'm ready. 

US: Is there anything that happened when you were in Breckenridge that helped with your transformation into bad boy?

Kylo: I was always considered a 'bad boy.' But what kinda pushed it over was a girl. 

US: A girl?

Kylo: Yeah. She and I met and were quite taken with eachother. We began dating and with in 4 months of her leaving to go back home she was photographed with another man. 

US: Ouch.

Kylo: Yeah. So it definitely changed me. I am definitely a harder man. She simply proved my point.

US: How does it feel to be nominated for People's Sexiest Man Alive?

Kylo: Its weird. I was never considered conventionally 'hot' growing up. I was kinda just dated for my money or my social status. It was never because I was hot or anything. *shrugs* But hey. Just is kinda a slap in the face to those who doubted me.

US: Well I hope you enjoy your vacation season, and we will see you on the pipe. 

Kylo: Thanks.

Rey picked up the glossy magazine with his picture on it. His beautiful brown eyes pierced her soul. Her fingers trembled as she thumbed through trying to find his pictures and interview. 

                                   SIT DOWN WITH HALF-PIPE CHAMPION: KYLO REN

Rey's heart fluttered. Her mind spun as she looked at him. 

She read his article and her heart stopped. She was the reason? It was her? Now she knew she needed to get him back. Before he did something stupid. But would he ever believe her?
