So this has some fluff but also a time skip. Time skips will become very common in this story and they will be random. Also sorry for the glitches.
Ben's POV:
I've been waiting for either of them to wake up. Padmé usually woke up early but she seemed to be sleeping in today, just like her mother.
Rey will always astound me. She has put up with everything that life has thrown at her and she's still standing.
I pulled her closer to me, pressing my lips against her sun-spot covered shoulder.
Her fingers laced into mine as she pulled my arm closer to her chest.
She has such soft and pure skin compared to mine. I was all scars. I traced my fingers over her body, mirroring where my own scars were on her.
I felt the heat of Jakku on her skin and it felt so good to have in my hands.
What time was it? There was no light in the room.
"Hmm..."
I looked over at Rey's face.
"Ben... Stop."
I raised an eyebrow and pulled myself over her.
"Stop this?"
I rubbed my hand on the inside of her thigh.
"No... I mean yes. I'm going to kill you."
"How much faith should I put into those words?"
For as dark as it was, I saw the red on her cheeks.
She grabbed my face and yanked me down.
Round 2.
Rey's POV:
Ben was braiding Padmé's hair when Leia and the boys came by. Her hair was just long enough to make the thinnest, tiniest braid.
Her eyes lit up when she saw the visitors. She got to her feet and stumbled across the floor. Padmé tripped on herself but Poe caught her and swung her into his arms.
"Poe!" She said giggling. That was the only thing she could say other than 'Ma' and 'Da'.
"Wow look at you! You've gotten big!"
She giggled. I noticed Leia pull aside Ben.
Finn looked at me before piping up. "How's he doing?"
"Why is that always a question?"
Finn sighed. "I'm sorry. You know worrying is my thing."
I smiled. "And that's why you're my best friend."
Poe leaned into our conversation. "Yeah I kinda wanna see him freak out, you know, test his dad skills if you know what I mean?"
I shook my head, confused. "What?"
Poe cleared his voice and spoke loud so that Ben would hear him.
"Yeah I think I should take Padmé out for a ride on an X-wing, what do you think Rey?"
Finn and I looked over at Ben. His glare burned over at us. We doubled over in laughter, while Poe kept a cool smile.
"No guys I'm dead serious. Padmé seems like the flying type."
We looked back up and he was still looking over at us.
"Oh my gosh, Poe stop!" My stomach began hurting.
I heard footsteps behind us.
Oh no. He was actually angry. Poe went too far. He's never like this unless something gets to him and a piece of Kylo Ren comes back.
Even Padmé could feel his energy. She reached out for him.
"Dameron, I swear if you take my daughter anywhere I'll-"
Poe raised an eyebrow. Ben remembered then looked at Padmé. He can't show who he was to her. Please don't.
He sighed.
"You'll what?"
"Nothing. Go ahead. I dare you."
My mouth dropped. "Ben!"
Poe took her and brought her outside with him.
"Poe!"
Of course he brought his X-wing with him.
Ben's eyes bulged once we got outside.
"Why're letting him do it?!"
"I didn't think he was serious!"
He put his fighter helmet on her and strapped her in before getting in himself.
For some reason, I relaxed. Seeing her in that helmet reminded me of myself at a young age.
I took Ben's hand and leaned against him.
"She'll be fine."
Poe did flips and turns and everything crazy but I knew she was safe.
He landed and took her out.
She had the biggest grin.
