AN: First of all, sorry about all the spelling errors in the first chapter but I wasn't able to spell check it on my laptop. Hope you enjoy this chapter and please leave reviews so that I know how you felt about this chapter!

Unkar had told Rey many, many, many times whilst he was away on vacation that she must not have new clients let her fix their car. After all, she was just his assistant. But she knew she could fix Ben's car, she would be able to keep the money for herself and maybe afford better food than cheap coffee and thai take outs.

Unkar was never nice to Rey, never. He would pay her the least bit of attention he could and did not care for her safety one bit, to the point where the school got concerned. She turned up to school with a large burn down her leg, and the nurse didn't believe her story that she burnt it on a hot car exhaust. Rey spent hours explaining that her boss was too large -and lazy- to get under a car, so he would often snap instructions at her whilst he sat and gulped down the coffee she had made for him.

But Rey always thought if she wasn't under a car or making Unkar his coffee, she could be on the streets, with no food, no home, no hope. Hope was the only thing that kept Rey alive and the only thing that kept her awake at night. Hope that she would one day meet her family or maybe hope one day she would have enough money to start her own. Rey was not focused on partying or boys, like all the other girls in her class, she had to focus on her studies and work and keeping a roof above her head.

She needed the money from Ben and she needed it now.

It's been three days since she last ate and she could hear her stomach calling for food every minute of the day. Unkar was paying her less and her rent her was going up, she had to earn money somehow and this was the perfect opportunity.

She needed the money from Ben.

She needed food.

Being winter, it was already dark at six o'clock when Ben finally arrived. The car was making the sound of banshee who had been drinking vodka, which usually means there's a hole in the exhaust. The part of cars Rey happened to fear the most.

Trust Ben Solo to drive a black 1967 Impala, the car Rey had always dreamt of driving along a road on a hot summer day when everything smelt of barley and the suns haze covered everything in sight. It looked slightly different in the dim glow of Unkar Plutt's auto repair garage.

Rey checked the rest of the car just to be sure she couldn't charge him more than she already was. There was a thick blanket draped over the back seat, and a pack of beer under the front seat.

Probably one of those guys that gets cheerleaders drunk in his car.

Ben sat quietly watching Rey attempt to fix his car, but began getting uncomfortable when he noticed how long she seemed to be looking at the back of his car.

Crap she knows. I knew I never should of come.

"Well you have a pretty big hole in your exhaust" Rey said wiping her hands on a dirty rag "Which means your gonna need to buy a new one"

"How much is a new exhaust?" Ben said trying not to look at her in her jumpsuit that was tied around her waist leaving her top half in a white vest, revealing her small shoulders.

"Cheapest about, umm" Rey walked over to look through a file and she suddenly realised how close she was to him "three hundred dollars"

Ben's eyes went wide.

"I only have about one twenty" He said as his cheeks flushed pink.

"One twenty?!" Rey said her jaw dropping

"How about I owe you?"

"I'm not allowed to-"

"I'll help you study" Ben interrupted "Any class"

Rey considered it and remembered her maths scores.

"Fine you'll help me study maths and give me hundred and twenty dollars and I'll fix your car"

"Deal" He said holding out his rather large hand

"Deal"
