Inspired by a post on my Insta thelonleycrouton after Ben has turned and he, Poe, and Finn are trying to get along.

Rey and Leia were in meetings all day and normally when Leia was in a meeting she would give Finn, Poe, and Rey busy work. Today she had just told Finn and Poe to keep Ben out of trouble and they promised they would. What better way to keep him out of trouble then by pranking him? Finn went and knocked on Ben's door, "Hello friend!"

"Um, hi," Ben gave a nervous smile, Poe didn't look to happy to see him but Finn was smiling brightly, "Can I help you?"

"Rey has a bunch of boring meetings with your mom so she said you could come help us with her part of the chores, it's kind of a training exercise mixed with team bonding," Poe shrugged.

"Sure sounds fun," Ben smiled, this was obviously one of his mom's plans to get him more acustom to people in the resistance and stop silently standing next to Rey and following her around all the time.

"Come on, we have to get suited up to go outside," Finn explained as he lead Ben and Poe down the hallway.

"Outside, what are we doing?" Ben questioned starting to get suspicious, Finn and Poe said they forgive him but he still didn't entirely trust them.

"We just have to shovel the snow off the roof of the base and brush off the bushes around it," Poe explained.

"Why would be do that?" asked Ben out of curiosity rather than mistrust.

"So the roof doesn't cave in from the snow melting on the heaters and then turning to ice when it gets too cold and to keep the plants from having all their leaves break off and die," Finn explained.

Hours later Rey got out of her meetings and went to find Finn, Poe, and Ben. Leia had told her that Finn and Poe were instructed to hang out with them. Rey knew nothing good could come of that but every time she reached out with the force to check on them they all seemed in good spirits. Reaching out again Rey actually had the intentions if finding them and they were...outside?

Rey passed Leia in the hall, "Do you know where Ben, Finn, and Poe are?"

"Outside, which I thought was weird, I was just going to see what they are up to," Rey explained.

"Care if I join you?" asked Leia.

"Not at all, we'll have to get snow gear, I really hate the cold," Rey added as they head towards the doors.

"I would imagine, being used to Jakku and all," Leia and Rey chatted politely as they got ready and went outside. The planet was cold and snowy but none was falling at the moment, "Which direction?"

Sensing with the force Rey pointed, "This way."

Finn, Poe, and Ben were having fun talking and beating the bushes with brooms when Finn noticed two figures approaching through the trees. The prank hadn't gone exactly as planned, they were actually enjoying each other's company and Finn didn't want it to be ruined by Ben finding out it started as a joke. Finn ran to great the two figures who turned out to be Leia and Rey, "It's a long story but we told Ben you always have us and Rey shovel the roof and brush snow off the bushes so we asked him to help us as a prank but we're kinda friends now, please don't tell him we lied."

"This wasn't what I meant by keep him out of trouble but you did a good job," Leia smiled and put a hand on Finn's shoulder.

"Well I've been in meetings all day and I didn't promise to keep him out of trouble," Rey spoke as she scooped up some snow and threw it.

Ben flinched when the snow ball hit the back of his head, " Is that all you got?"

"Come find out!" Rey yelled and sprinted at Ben who tackled her and dragged her down the hill.

"That's the future of the force," Poe pointed down the hill where Rey and Ben were laughing as they tried to climb back of and kept slipping.

"Well the past of the force didn't have a sense of humor," Leia shrugged.
