Our first training

Rey's POV:
I am patiently waiting for his arrival in the woods. Finally we will have our first training together. I will teach him the ways of the force, the true force, the light. If he is successful maybe he will become a Jedi, just like me. The forest is not far away from the resistance base so he will be here soon. We both decided to meet in front of "The cave" as everyone calls it, but no one is bold enough to enter inside, I wonder what secrets does it have. Just as I stood on the entrance I heard footsteps. I turned and saw the man I was awaiting.
"Kylo, I am happy you came. I must say I doubted it, but you proved me wrong, I am impressed." He looks sad, his soul must be tortured, he is too deep in his own problems.
" Please don't call me that. Not anymore. " I was stunned, he wants me to call him by his own name, his real name.
"Ben..." I was scared to see his reaction because of his anger tantrums. He is still unstable, I am not sure how he is going to react.
Surprisingly he just smiled, his eyes wide open ,his face seemed to lighten up. That is good.
" First we will battle, I want to see how you do it. Your technic. " He nod and took his lightsaber. When I saw it chills ran down my bones. That thing brought back only bad memories, nothing good.
" You are not going to need that...thing...anymore. " I said to him. He just looked at me for a moment, and then he handed me his lightsaber. When I touched it more flashbacks found their way into my mind, I tried to dismiss them right away. I put it into my backpack and from the inside I took another one. It is beautiful and smooth with nice small details on the metal. I looked at him and slowly handed the lightsaber. Warm smile covered his soft lips. His eyes started sparkling with joy, I have never seen him like this. He gently took it from my arms and activated it. His happiness became even more greater than before. I bet I saw a small tear in his right eye.

Ben' s POV:
Familiar green light shoot from the weapon. It is my old lightsaber. The one that I used when I was training at Luke' s Jedi academy. When I took it into my bare hands after so many years I felt like the past is alive again. I feel like the man I was before, I feel good...again. Not like the monster the other one made me.
" It is my old lightsaber. How did you get it?" I am exited as a little boy that finally has his wanted toy. She stated at me, warmth in her gorgeous hazel eyes.
" Master Luke gave it to me. He found it in your old cabin, when you were gone, and he gave it to me, to protect it until we meet again. Until you join us, and I think now is a good time to return it to you. You are his only Master." I vividly remember the day I left that cabin, but I never thought I was going to see it again.
" Thank you Rey. I will not disappoint you." I know it is my only chance, if I fail everything will be forever lost. But I can't let that happen, she is the only one that truly believes in me. She always has. Flashbacks from our time together came to me. We were so happy without a care in the world. Then I helped her recover from her loss ( her parents) and now she will help me redeem myself.
"Nothing Ben. Let's start then." She prepared in fighting position and activated her blue lightsaber. I let her attack first. We fought with all our strength. Our energy floating between us. It is a pull like a magnet that echoes in our bodies with every single touch of the swords. It is so strong. Our bond is strong, our force is strong, and our feelings are strong. I know they exist, but still I can't understand them entirely. It will take time. Our swords crossed in the middle of the training area. It looked just like the fought we had a year ago.I started to sink into her enchanting brown eyes, I almost forgot we are in the middle of an important match. She seemed to forget too, looking straight into mine. What is this girl doing to me? She is torturing my mind and heart. She is capable to enter into the deepest part of my soul. She suddenly turned and kicked me hard. I fell on the ground. I will never be able to defeat her if she continues to mess with me like this.
"Ben, just ignore it." What is she saying?
" What are you talking about? I can't ignore it, it is too powerful."
She just glanced away from me, her face sad.
" You must. It is not right, it must desappear. "
" No, no Rey. It will always be there, you can't change that." I stood up to come near her, but she took a step back.
" Yes I can. Because I know it's not right." I felt a sharp pain inside, not physical but it hurt nor less.
" What is not right?" I said my voice shaky.
"Loving you." A tear ran down her soft rose cheek, and after seconds she disappeared deep inside the mysterious woods.
