Chapter Text
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth"
Genesis 1:1
One.
“Ben, your father and I need to have a talk with you,” Leia says sternly, hands folded neatly on the table. “We've noticed some behavioral changes here lately and we are worried.”
Kylo struggles to keep his eyes from rolling as he picks at his nail bed. “About what exactly?”
Han slams his fists on the table, clearly frustrated and losing patience with his teenage son. “With this attitude of yours, Ben! Your mother and I are sick of it!”
Leia puts a hand on her husbands back, attempting to soothe the red faced man. “So we have a solution,” she takes a breath before telling her son that, “we are sending you to your uncle's house for the summer and the next year of highschool.”
The boy’s eyes widen dramatically. “What? No!” He stares desperately at his mother. “Mom, no! You can't do this to me! You can't move me in my final year of highschool!”
“We can and will,” Han replies easily. “And maybe when you come back your uncle will have taught you some manners.”
Kylo huffs and stomps off to his room. “This isn't fair!” he shouts down the stairs before slamming his door shut and burring his face in his pillows.
This isn't fair.

A week passes by and Kylo has his bags packed and is getting ready to board a plane to the middle of Nowhere. Literally.
Leia grips her son tightly as she tells him to behave himself. Kylo rolls his eyes at her. “I would behave myself better at home.” Leia smiles at her son without saying anything before stepping back.
“You had better come back with a better attitude, Ben,” his father says, slapping a hand on his shoulder. “Have fun, kid.”
“Whatever.”
“Flight 138 to Nowhere now boarding”
“Oh, Ben,” Leia flings her arms around her tall son once more. “We will miss you so much!”
“Then why are you sending me away?” Kylo mutters under his breath as he walks towards the gates.
Kylo is not ready for this summer or the school year that follows. He does not want to be there and briefly considers running away, but all too quickly he is on the plane and half bored to death, preparing to brace himself for the 8 hour flight ahead of him.
