Edit: I just realized that Rey is actually underage so I will be aging up all the characters by one year. That means Rey will be 21, Ben's 31, Finn's 25, and so on. This applies to chapter two(last chapter). Sorry guys :/ Now onto the story!

Rey's POV:

I woke up the next morning, feeling refreshed and relaxed. A beam of sunlight danced to the sounds of birds singing. I lay there for a few minutes before getting up and taking a shower.

Looking through my closet, I decided on a more stylish clothing change. I didn't have to wear practical clothes - the war was over. I ended up picking out some tan leggings and a fawn brown shirt, highlighted by white gloves and a belt, along with some knee-high boots with a considerably high heel. A white scarf draped over my neck and tucked into my belt. I was about to tie my hair up again, but then decided against it.

I stepped outside, pulling on a long black cloak - it was almost D'Qar's winter. I shivered as a brisk wind swept through, hurrying along to the mess hall.

Two beloved, familiar faces greeted me "Ben, Finn!" I called out, both greeting me with a smile and wave. "New look, huh?" Finn asks. "Yep!" I reply, grinning.

"Wow . . . you look amazing . . ." is all Ben manages to say and holds my gaze for a few moments. Those deep, dark eyes, once filled with hate and anger and betrayal . . . now full of light . . . and something else.

"Thanks," I say snapping out of my trance and I give Ben a smile. I turn to Finn "wait, where's Poe?"

"Oh, just out cleaning up some boring stuff at the control room . . . or, at least, that's what he told me," Finn replies looking sheepish "Oh wait!" he said suddenly and I nearly jumped out of my skin. "Poe also said there was a surprise and something about a ceremony . . . ?" Poor Finn. He looks just as confused and Ben and I.

Right at that moment, Poe comes barreling in through the door, catching quite a few onlookers from the people innocently trying to enjoy their breakfast.

"GUYS!" he yells.

"HUGE NEWS!"

He got a lot more onlookers as he torpedoed over to our table. I think I caught a muffled "It would be huge news if you learned to shut up" from Ben along with a groan from Finn. "Ok," Poe whispers.

"Wow is the huge news you finally learning how to whisper?" Finn says, sarcasm dripping from the statement. Poe glares at him but continues on "I got. The biggest popstar. In the galaxy. To sing at the party next Saturday. Xylina Stellar!"

Time stops.

Ben and Finn's jaws drop to the floor.

I just sit there, dumbstruck.

Then time begins again. I unleash the most girly shriek ever you could hear it three galaxies away. I don't really know what the entire mess hall did, but when I closed my mouth there were considerably fewer people. Poe, Finn and Ben are looking at me like their scared to take their hands off their ears.

"Wait you're not kidding, right?" Ben asks. Poe shakes his head "No way."

I opened my mouth to shriek again, only to be tackled from behind as Ben covers my mouth with his hand. He explains it as "so no one suffers from permanent hearing loss" at which the four of us all burst out laughing.

Finn's POV:

I walked along the rows of military arranged huts, heading into the forest. I needed some wood. You may be surprised, but carving is one of my hobbies. I love the intricacy of it. Now I was searching for something I could use as a mini lightsaber. I thought it would be cut for some of the kids.

I continued walking, stopping when I heard . . . laughter? I knew I should have walked away, but curiosity got the better of me and I investigated. The sound eventually led me to a clearing, bordered on one side by a pretty little stream. And who should be walking by?

Rey. Holding hands with Ben. I knew I should trust him, but I don't. The two continue talking and laughing and rey stands on her tip toes and gives Ben a soft kiss. Something stirs inside me. Jealousy.

It was weird. I've never felt this way about someone before, and come on, Rey's in love with the guy who's sweet, charming, and hot. Not to mention he has a six-pack. No wonder I don't trust him.

"Dude" I hear a voice behind me "Why are you . . ." at this point the speaker struggles not to laugh "in a bush." I look behind me. It's Poe. I should have known. I roll my eyes and just pull him over. "Look" I whisper.

Rey and Ben continue walking, until Rey stops Ben and kisses him. I have to look away "tell me when it ends," I say to Poe. "What's up? Squeamish about a kiss? What are you, ten?" Poe snorts, that trademark smirk on his face. You would be surprised he had never met Han Solo.

I just glared at him. Eventually though, I turned back to Rey and Ben, who were still kissing. I sighed.

Just then I heard a roar behind me. Poe and I turned around, greeted by a furry beast "Chewie!?" we both exclaimed at the same time, in complete disbelief. He too squatted down next to us, to see what was going on.

At this point, Chewie lost his balance, sending the three of us tumbling out of the bush . . . right to the feet of a very embarrassed Rey and Ben.

Poe points to me "It was his idea." I immediately point to Chewie "It was his fault."

Poe, Chewie, and I all get to our feet "Yeah I'm just gonna gooo . . ." I say awkwardly, backing away and then turning around and sprinting, Poe and Chewie right on my heels. As we reached the main base, we all agree that when this entire ordeal is over, we will never, ever speak of it again.

A/N:

I'm not feeling too confident on this chapter, I did it in a bit of a rush lol. I thought adding some humor would be nice, but tell me what you guys think! Since I'm posting a day early(ish) I think I might get chapter four out on Wednesday, maybe Tuesday. I have tests to study for. Don't count on it lol ;). Also I was going to put more . . . fundamental-to-the-storyline stuff in this chapter, but I realized that this will have to be good enough because school sucks. What else is new? Again, please review! :)
