I have to tell him, he deserves to know! But how do I tell him! This is going to be hard!

She walked around her office for what felt like hours. Thinking of a way to tell Poe about his parentage. But try as she might, she couldn't!

Rey was playing with her mother's locket, looking at all the intricate details when she saw a piece of paper poking out of the separator, she tugged at the paper and another picture, smaller than the others, popped out. She gasped at what she saw, she turned over the picture, wanting to know who her mother was holding, the back of the picture read.

Poe, my baby boy, I wish I could tell you I was your mother. It breaks my heart to watch you every day, constantly putting your life in peril. Please be safe! I love you! Mom Xxx

She was one of 3, this is incredible. Earlier she didn't know she had a family, now she had 2 brothers, a mother and a uncle. This was amazing. Poe is like 32 isn't he? Rey was the youngest then. An 8 year aged gap is quite a lot. She felt like an outcast almost, 8 years younger than her youngest older brother. 13 years younger than her eldest brother.

Back on D'Qar, Poe was stood outside Leia's room. He felt her stirring earlier that day after he left to go talk to Finn about Rey and Leia, swearing him to secrecy. He wasn't sure if Leia or Rey wanted the galaxy to know about them two being related. Leia was unsettled. He could feel it. Somehow he had a feeling it was some basic version of the force, deep inside him. But that was impossible, his parents weren't force sensitive as far as he knew, none of the Damerons were, or the Beys. Must have been the force tree he used to have in his back garden from Luke Skywalker! One of his twin heroes. Leia, of course, was his other hero, and she was the most inspirational and loving person in his life. Sometimes it seemed as if she loved him more than his parents did, which is odd seems as he is not related to her to his knowledge.

Leia could feel Poe was confused, he was one of the few people she could feel through the force, only her family. She had an idea. She reached out in the force and sent a message out in the force.

Only my children and my family know how much this song means to me, and it means a lot to them, if you can hear this and it means something to you, report to my office or contact me.

Mirrorbright shines the moon, its glow as soft as ember

When the moon is Mirrorbright, take this time to remember

Those who loved you but are gone

Those who kept you safe and warm

The Mirrorbright moon lets you see

Those who have ceased to be

Mirror bright shines the moon, as fire dies to their embers

Those you loved are with you still -

The moon will help you remember

She waited and suddenly there was a knock on the door. She called through it, "come in!" She turned away from the door.

"Gene... Mom?" Leia felt warm, strong hands rap around her and she knew instantly who it was.

"I'm here Poe, I'm sorry," she turned and looked at her son. Looking into his brown hazel eyes. Her son, was finally her son. "Please don't leave me like your brother did." He smiled at her.

"I would never leave you, even if you weren't my mother. You mean the world to me, always have!" She smiled. She had one son on her side, even if the other one had gone and killed his father, tortured his siblings and almost killed them all, and his uncle. So, hopefully, Poe wasn't going to be like Ben. "Mom, I would NEVER be like him. One question though, am I fully Ben and Rey's brother, like I'm not a half brother or a step brother or something?" Leia shook her head.

"I gave you to Shara because I couldn't take care of you, I was, what 21? You wouldn't of had a good life, you were safer with Shara and Kes, they were older and had more experience. Ben would have probably killed you anyway." Poe laughed, it was true, Ben tried to kill him, and Luke and Han, Leia, Rey, Chewie, everyone actually!

"So, what do we do now?" Poe asked Leia.

"Now we catch up! Talk, eat! Anything! I barely know you. Not being able to love you like a mother fully for 32 years. We can do anything you want!" Poe grabbed her hand and dragged her out of the room.

"Poe! Haha! What are you doing? Stop!" But Poe wouldn't stop. When they got to their destination he shouted

"Surprise! Happy Birthday!" Leia gasped! It was her birthday, but not an age she cared to be.

"Poe really you didn't have to do this! And how did you know?" Poe pulled something out of his pocket, it was a planner. He flipped it to today's date, it said 'General Organa's Birthday'. Suddenly he whipped out a pen and scribbled it out and put. 'Mom's Birthday'.

Leia smiles and hugged her son, not caring about the crowds of people gathering around them. She whispered in his ear,

"I love you Poe!" He smiles to himself.

"I know, thanks mom!"
