Rey woke before Ben and marvelled in the fact that he was still there, weighing down his side of the bed and rising the temperature in the room by quite a few degrees. She propped herself up on one elbow and looked at him. His head was facing away from her.

'Are you watching me sleep?' he murmured with his eyes still closed.

Rey laughed.

'Apparently not.'

He opened his eyes and turned to look at her.

'How do you feel this morning?'

'Good, my memories are still somewhat hazy but I feel good, being here with you.'

He reached up and pushed a curl of hair behind her ear.

'How much do you remember?' he asked carefully.

'Quite a lot now. I remember us leaving, I remember reaching this planet, I remember that first night,' she trembled at the memory. So much need, so much desire. They had both quickly learnt that being Force sensitive was a huge advantage when trying to please someone intimately.

'What else?' Ben asked, his hand lazily running up and down her arm making little bumps form on her skin.

'I've lost my train of thought,' she said with a blush. Ben smiled and sat up, he cupped her cheek and gently pulled her close for a kiss.

'It will come,' he murmured.

'I like your hair like this,' Rey said, running her fingers through it. 'It's strange, everything is familiar to me and yet so different.'

Ben nodded.

'You just need time, and that's something we have plenty of.'

Rey smiled.

'I'm so happy I could burst. I'm your wife. I'm Mrs Rey Solo.'

'You are.'

'And Han and Leia and Luke are still alive and the Resistance are thriving, and the Force is stronger than ever. This is how it was always meant to be. This is how we were always meant to be.'

'My Uncle is fascinated by our connection.'

'Yes, that's what brought him back to the fold. He could feel us,' Rey noted as more of her memories fell into place.

Ben nodded.

'It was difficult at first, but with your help we are rebuilding our relationship. Of course, they all adore you.'

'And I them.'

Her eyes filled with tears. Ben frowned.

'What is it?' he asked, his concern filtering through the bond.

'It's just that, I just realised I have a family now.'

'You do.'

'I can't believe it. It's all I ever wanted. How can I thank her?'

'Thank who?'

'The woman, the woman who sent me back?'

'Oh, we've tried, darling, don't you remember? We've tried to contact her but to no avail. We think she is the daughter, one of the first force users. A powerful being even in death.'

'Say it again,' Rey asked.

'We think she is the daughter, but it seems impossible— '

Rey shook her head.

'Not that part. The part where you called me darling.'

Ben smiled and leaned close to her, his cheek against hers, his lips hovering near her ear.

'My darling girl,' he whispered.

Rey closed her eyes and bit her lip.

'You were somewhat distracting as Kylo Ren, but I'm completely at the mercy of Ben Solo.'

He groaned and kissed her neck. Rey tilted her head to give him better access.

'Can we stay in bed all day?' she murmured as her eyes fluttered shut.

'We can do whatever you want, my love.'

Rey sighed.

'It's too much, all of this. How can one person be awarded so much happiness?'

'After your start in life you deserve all the happiness in the Galaxy, Rey. But I assure you, no matter how happy you think you are, it won't even amount to half the joy you bring me every day. In the beginning I was convinced everything was a dream. My arms were red raw from all the pinching.'

Rey giggled.

'Okay, now back to this idea of staying in bed all day,' he said in a low voice.

He wrapped her in his arms and fell back against the pillow, pulling her down to his chest. She drew circles on his skin with her fingers.

'Just to be able to touch you like this is a gift,' she whispered. 'It was heart-breaking, being without you.'

Ben kissed her and she felt him flood their connection with loving thoughts, vowing he would never leave her again, vowing they would always be together. Their kisses turned urgent and Rey climbed onto Ben, straddling his chest.

'You are so wide,' she said.

'You always say that.'

She giggled and leaned down to kiss his nose.

She wiggled further down, positioning herself above him. Shaking with excitement as she saw how hard he was. For her.

Only for you…

He whispered through the bond.

She ached between her thighs in response to his words, lowering herself slowly onto him. He hissed and grasped at her hips. Rey started to move slowly at first and then faster and faster as her orgasm built. Her entire body tingled. His pleasure and hers blended together and her entire body burned with desire. Ben knew what she needed. He knew her body better than she did. He used the force to caress her skin, every inch of it, focusing particular attention on the apex between her thighs. She called out as she came. Crying his name much to his delight, it didn't take him long to join her, gathering her in his arms and holding her close as his body exploded with a series of delicious tremors.

Rey lay against his chest, panting heavily.

'Wow,' was the only word she could muster.

'Agreed,' Ben managed to say between pants.

Rey felt hunger pangs form in her stomach.

'You're hungry,' Ben said suddenly, gently moving her off his chest.

'Breakfast now,' he said firmly, standing up and pulling on some clothes. He held out his hand for her to take.

'I love how you take care of me,' she said letting him pull her to her feet. She put her arms up as Ben slipped a simple red dress over her head, then took her hand once more leading her to their small kitchen space.

'So, what's for breakfast?' Rey asked cheerfully.

'I made bread yesterday, and we have some fruit left from the harvest.'

Rey rubbed her hands together.

'Goodie.'

She sat at the stark white table and giggled.

'What?' Ben said.

'This kitchen wasn't really designed for someone as tall as you.'

Ben's head was bobbing dangerously close to the ceiling.

'No, but I couldn't care less. I'd live in a hole in the ground as long as I was with you.'

Rey bit her lip.

'Don't say things like that or I'll never get to eat my breakfast,' she moaned.

'Don't tempt me,' Ben murmured as he handed her the plate he had prepared and kissed her forehead.

'Is there anything we need to do today?' Rey asked as they ate.

'I'm afraid I have a job,' Ben replied.

'Don't you mean, we have a job?'

Ben looked worried.

'Rey, I think you need to rest today, your memory is still sketchy. I can handle it…'

'Are you seriously suggesting I stay here alone? I feel like I just got you back, Ben.'

'I know it's just that… you know what? It doesn't matter. If you are with me, I can make sure you stay out of trouble.'

There was something else on his mind, but Rey let it slide. He would tell her when he was ready.

'Ha! Between the two of us who has the worst track record for getting themselves into trouble?'

'Point taken.'

'So, what's the job?' Rey said as she finished her food.

'Just a collection and then a delivery, no big deal.'

'What are we collecting?'

Ben snorted.

'We have a strict don't ask policy remember?'

'Ahhh yes. So, when do we leave?'

'As soon as I'm done,' Ben said popping the last crust of bread into his mouth.

'But you need to change first,' Ben said his eyes travelling over her body.

'Definitely,' Rey agreed, as she disappeared into the bedroom.

She reappeared wearing a black fitted tunic and black leggings. She located her black boots that pulled up to her knee and put them on.

Ben was fitting his blaster holster to his leg.

She cocked her head to the side as she watched him secure it in place and let her mind wander.

'Rey,' he quirked an eyebrow at her.

'What?'

'I can see your thoughts and if you keep projecting those images at me, we are going to lose this commission.'

Rey huffed.

'Fine,' she muttered and headed for the courtyard. Ben caught her wrist as she passed him.

'I would very much like to revisit that tempting idea of yours of me and you in the Falcon pilot seat later, if you feel up to it?'

Rey smirked.

'Absolutely.'

The collection was relatively easy, the delivery was not so easy. The planet they were trying to land on had strict air zone codes. Without a permit they were not permitted to enter the atmosphere.

'Bureaucracy,' Ben muttered angrily under his breath.

Rey leaned across from her position in the co-pilot's chair and placed her hand on top of his.

'We'll think of something,' she said with a smile.

'What if you say we're refugees? Refugees wouldn't have permits?' Rey suggested.

Ben nodded and relayed the message. After a tense wait, they were giving permission to land.

'That's my girl,' Ben said looking at her lovingly.

Rey bit her lip and Ben groaned.

'Rey, it's even harder to ignore your thoughts when I'm sitting in the very place that is the main location of your very vivid sexual fantasy.'

'I'm sorry! Stop being so nice to me then.'

'Impossible,' Ben said with a crooked grin.

'And don't look at me like that either, that's just going to make matters worse!' Rey complained, turning her head away from him. Ben laughed.

They brought the falcon in for landing and they both touched Hans dice for luck as they exited.

'I'm glad Han retired and we got to keep the Falcon,' Rey said.

'Me too,' Ben agreed.

Two men approached them as they unloaded the cargo.

'Is this from Griff?' one of them asked in a low voice.

Ben nodded.

The men took two bags each and hoisted them onto their shoulders.

One of the men handed Ben an envelope before they walked away. Ben shook the envelope at Rey.

'Nice and easy,' he said with a smile.

As they walked back on-board Rey had a troubling thought.

'Would Han be mad if he knew our operations with his beloved ship weren't exactly legal?'

Ben laughed.

'Be mad? He thinks it's great.'

'He knows?'

'Of course, he knows. He's my father, I tell him everything.'

Rey's heart squeezed in her chest.

'Of course, you do,' she said with a smile as Ben put his arm around her.

Once they were well clear of the planet and able to engage autopilot, Rey finally got to live out the fantasy that had been torturing her thoughts all day.

After slowly peeling off each other's clothing, Rey lowered herself into Ben's lap hissing in a breath as their bodies came together. His hands held her hips, as she moved slowly up and down on top of him.

She arched her spine, letting her head fall back, Ben ran a hand from her neck to her navel, whispering words of devotion, branding her a goddess and begging her not to stop.

She cradled his head to her breast as she kissed his silken hair.

'They came together, trembling within each other arms, sweat beads trailing down their bodies as the cockpit heated up around them.

She was asleep before they reached home. Ben carried her from the Falcon to their dwelling, laying her gently down on the bed and removing her shoes and weapons.

He looked down at her lovingly before planting a soft kiss against her temple.

'Don't leave me,' she whispered.

'Never,' he vowed, removing his boots and wrapping his frame around hers, holding her close.
