Yeah…
I love you guys.
Remember that.
You signed up for this!
Also, after I uploaded my chapter I watched Spiderman: Homecoming and ate dinner and then I came back and realized that I had left "[WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE DIDN'T MAKE IT DOWN THE STAIRS]" in the actual chapter instead of removing it, so I had to update it.
She was still sleeping on the Falcon. She was sitting there, thinking about the decision that she'd made, messing around with a little squishy ball, and she heard the door open and close. She didn't look up. She knew it was him. "What's up, Ben?" He didn't say anything, and she just set her ball down on her end table and looked up into his face. It didn't matter; it was a rhetorical question anyway. "Where were we, Rey?" he asked. "I think we were here," she replied. She wrapped her arms around him and kissed him lovingly. "That sounds right." They kissed for a while. Eventually, she said, "Ben?"
"Yes, love?"
"You have to go now."
"Yeah… I do. I don't want to leave you."
"It's really fine Ben. I'll see you tomorrow."
"Okay." He slowly walked out. And, said her voice in his head, we share a mind, remember? He smiled. Neither could sleep that night, so they talked for hours. "My mother insinuated the most ridiculous thing the other day."
"Yeah?"
"Yes. When you were gone, when I realized you were gone, she basically said she approved of you, by saying 'she's already like a daughter to me'. I wanted to die." She laughed. "Really? General Leia Organa Solo said that?"
"Those words were lifted verbatim from her dialogue, Rey." She smiled fondly. "I love you."
"Yeah, me too."
"Shut up, Solo."
"I love you too."
"I know."
Eventually, they both drifted off to sleep, but the next day only brought more work and exhaustion. They pulled themselves grudgingly out of bed, but rushed to dress so they could see each other. Each day following, for many days, they continued a routine of talking until late, waking early, and coming to see each other as soon as possible. And then disaster struck, once again.
I'M SO EVIL MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I'm basically Rick Riordan. Someone tweeted at him, "I'm starting to think camphalfblood hates Percabeth" and he was like "No, I just don't think they'd be interesting if they weren't constantly in danger." This is me and Reylo. I'm amazing.
I love you all!
This is the last plot twist, I swear.
But, even when I'm done, I'm not going to change it to completed, because I'm going to have to ask something of you guys. Also, I've changed the rating, you may notice. I've decided that there aren't going to be any lemons in this story, for a couple reasons: one, I kinda suck at writing those, and two, it doesn't fit into my plot very well.
Thank you all for this!
Also, I'm starting to think I sorta need a beta so… let me know if you think I should get one!
Love,
Allie
