The next morning Poe got up early to get ready to train Rey and show her some pilot skills. He was very excited to show her some of his own skills and impress Rey.
Jade was still on his bed, she had a late night shift tonight. He didn't want to wake her up.
He finished getting ready and dressed. He put on his jacket and left his room.
He knocked on Rey's door over and over again and there wasn't an answer. Maybe she was waiting for him at the training room.
Poe made his way to the training center, he decided to stop at the medical bay first to check on his friend Finn.
That's when he saw her sitting on his bed holding his hand, it looked like she was talking to him. He went into his room.
Rey heard the glass doors and turned around and there he was the man she couldn't stop thinking about all night long.
She smiled at him.
"Good morning" Poe said as he looked down at Rey still holding on to Finn's hand. He wasn't sure but he felt a bit jealous, he didn't know if Finn and Rey were more than friends. He's a nice guy and they both experienced a lot within one day. They saved each other but some how he wished it was him.
He heard about Rey from Finn, when Finn asked Poe to help him get Rey back from Kylo.
"Morning" she said back to him "I came to tell Finn about my mission, he's still stable. I hope he gets to wake up before I leave." She looked at Finn sleeping.
"Yea" its all Poe could say, Finn was badly hurt and he didn't know what to say to Rey.
"It should be me here instead of him, he went back for me and he ended up getting hurt and I got....-" Rey's sadness was getting the best of her
"Don't" Poe cut her off knowing what she was about to say to him.
Poe walked towards her and picked her up so she can face him.
"Stop blaming yourself Rey" she dropped her face to look down at the floor to fight the tears that were eating her up. He grabbed her from her chin to pull her head up. They both locked eyes, he saw her eyes getting wet.
"Rey none of this is your fault. Don't do this to yourself. " Poe cleaned away he tears that started to fall from her face.
"It's hard looking at the General and not feeling guilty Poe." Rey started to cry.
Poe hugged her and tried to calm her down.
"Rey we are all here for you, none of this is your fault"
Poe didn't want to let go of Rey, her body felt so right against him.
"I don't think I'm the right person to go on this mission Poe." She looked at him and noticed how beautiful his eyes were.
"Rey, don't doubt yourself you have something special and you're the only one who can do this. I believe in you."
Hearing that he believes in her ,meant a lot for Rey she wasn't use to people caring for her.
They couldn't stop staring at each other, they let that moment between them take over.
Poe knew that he wanted to kiss her, she was so beautiful and vulnerable. He felt like the need to protect her and always be there for her. He knew that she was a tough girl but she also needed someone to reassure her how important and special she is.
Rey noticed the way Poe was looking at her, it was different from the way he looked at Jade but a good different. Slowly her body started to feel numb, she couldn't stop staring into those brown eyes.
They're moment was ruined by voice they didn't expect to hear.
"I hope I'm not interrupting" she said
