Time skip- 2022 winter Olympics. Arrival. Song for chapter-Say something by Agreatbigworld 

Rey stepped out of the plane. She stretched slightly and then yawned. The airplane had been tight and cramped. Beijing was aglow with preparations as the athletes headed to the terminal. 

Poe poked Rey in the rib. "Still alive there?" He smirked at her. 

She smiled but remained silent. The smirk he had given her reminded her to much of another person's smirk. A person she had not seen in years. 

As they were walking past the private airway a black jet flew in. The striking appearance made many stop and watch. 

The elegant mode of transportation was luxury at best. It looked to cost a few million and bore the proud stance of a knight. A man walked down the steps. A man that looked all to familiar to Rey. 

His wind blown hair was raven black and his designer jeans, watch, sunglasses, and shoes screamed wealth. Everything about him was dark and brooding. The muscular man carried a brief case and a black ski bag.

That was him definitely. Rey's brain fogged as she watch him stride regally to the awaiting Cadillac Escalade SUV. He handled his skis with care and tucked his boot bag next to them. His cautious movements were replaced by a hardness as the cameras went off and he pulled his sunglasses down to cover his eyes. 

Rey watched Kylo tuck his 6 foot 3 inch frame into the car and a woman with platinum blonde hair fend off the cameras as he drove away. 

Finn released a breath next to her. "Was that?" He looked around. 

"Yes that was." She sighed. Kylo had gotten older but as he aged he seemingly got better looking. He was now 32 and she was 25. He had been a friend to her when she had traveled to Breckenridge that one winter, but then when she left they had lost contact. She had seen pictures of them together that had been posted on the internet and had liked the idea of  dating Kylo even if it had simply been a crude fan theory. 

The fanfictions had gone haywire after the pictures had been posted and she had blushed when she saw some of the implications. 

Rose walked next to Rey and whispered something to her. She smiled slightly and sighed again. Her and Kylo had shared a mutual attraction but then he had changed. He became the jerk he was know as. 

She had walked away from that week hurt and confused. She had watched him these past four years grow harder on the exterior and more ruthless than ever. He was a man not to be messed with. 

His winning streak had been unbreakable and his tactics perfect. He was polished and he knew it. 

Leia watched Kylo with sad eyes and then straightened herself and moved to the baggage claim. 

Rey rolled her shoulders back and moved with the Alpine princess. Her friends followed and in short order they were all at the hotel. 

Rey looked around her room. She had a giant bed and a large bath. The hotel was on the expensive side but not nearly as expensive as where Leia was at. 

She unpacked and then wandered around the Olympic Village. She went from stall to stall and looked over the things, then wandered back to the hotel.

"The opening ceremony is tomorrow Mr. Ren." A snarky voice entered Rey's ear. 

"I am well aware Minka. I am well aware." Kylo was on his iphone not paying any attention to the grumbling man next to him. 

"Excuse me miss." A man's voice cut through Rey's fogged brain. 

"Oh um yes?" She looked at the man in front of her. 

"Are you Rey Andor?" 

"Yes I am." She smiled when she saw Kylo's head snap up from his phone. He looked directly at her and stared. 

"I was wondering if my daughter could get a picture with you. She is a big fan." He pointed at a young, hopeful girl of around 10.

"Of course." Rey motioned for the young girl to come to her. She could feel Kylo's gaze on her. She bent and smiled at the child. 

"Hello." She smiled at the girl. "What is your name?" 

"Connie." She whispered. 

"Well hello Connie. I am Rey." She put her arms around the girl in a hug. 

Connie smiled and her dad took the picture. She thanked Rey and ran back to her father. 

"So you are famous now I see." A silky voice met her waiting ears. A shadow was near her. 

"I guess so." She shrugged and ran off. Her heart was beating a thousand beats per second. He was here, he knew she was here. It was only a matter of time before she would be unable to avoid him.
