There were nights when she woke up screaming, others where she almost wished she could. Even when no sound came, there were always tears, frustration, pain.

Then there were nights when he had the nightmares. Waking up with a jerk, never screaming but not quite silent, breathing too hard, tears in his eyes, because that darkness was creeping on him again.

They never said much. Silently, one would reach out to the other, then somehow, the peace and comfort of both the light side and the love they shared spread between them.

Only then could Rey and Ben sleep again.
