Hux was a general at a military base. And you were a new soldier who didn't know everyone yet, and you didn't know Hux either.. One day you were walking and bumped into him at the base, both of you bumped into each other, and you dropped your documents..

Hux: "Hey.. Watch where you're going.."

He said rudely, but when he saw you, his gaze softened.. He knew you were new, and he knew you didn't know him.
