Royalty was something that everyone dream off . But not her . She hated being a princess . She hated the dresses and the jewels .
She hated that she had just been forced into an arranged marriage... But it was her "duty" off all to marry the Prince...
When she woke up she was in a ship, they are almost at Naboo. She yawned and then felt Maz hand her a cup of warm tea , the steam went to her nose .
"Thank you" she said taking a sip of the warm tea.
"Well ... We must be getting you ready... You will meet with her majesty Queen Leia and then your betrothed" Maz smiled at Rey .
She was put in a bath and quickly scrubbed of any dirt thy dared linger on her body .
She was wrapped in a fluffy towel and then placed in a chair. Maz took a comb to her long hair , it went well past her waist . Maz did intricate braids in her hair , pinning them and then added a warm brush to her hair , twisting till there was a nice curl to her hair .
Rey was placed in a corset and such then was shimmied in a beautiful gown. It was definitely more regal than she would wear every day , especially since she helped Poe so much.
There was beautiful and hand done beading along the writs and the train. Maz places her in a pair of brown flats thatched her gold and brown dress well.
The last touch was her crown , it was gold, as we most of her jewelry. The soft white jewels went around the beautifully wired crown , holding many designs.
When Maz wasn't looking Rey put on her gold locket , the small diamond necklace was her mother's before she passed .
"Ready dear?" She asked . Rey simply nodded , fearing what was ahead of her.
Poe was there , dressed nicely in a dark garment , very similar to her father's.
"What ? What are you doing here ? I thought-"
"Your father said I was to be your escort since he couldn't come ... He also figured it would be good for you to see a least one familiar face" Poe said.
"Thank you" she smiled and then the doors opened. Rey blinked until she was comfortable with the sunlight that Naboo had.
There were lush trees surrounding the palace in front of her. Poe grabbed her hand and placed it on his arm.
She didn't want to look foolish so she held it as if she would hold her father's.
Rey and Poe walked up the long stairs to the doors of the palace . A guard opened it then they walked straight.
"You say the word Rey and I get you out of here" he whispered . Rey smiled , thankful for her cousin's kindness .
Soon enough they reached a throne room , inside was a woman. She was older , and she had clearly seen her share of princesses .
"Say something" Poe whispered under his breath .
"Dia duit do chuid mhaorga Banríona Leia , tá sé mar onóir chun bualadh leat ... Is é seo mo choimhdeacht agus cosuin , Poe Dameron , an ceann na roinne ag eitilt Jakku ar" she let go of his hand and said loud enough for the queen to hear. Rey curtsied too.
( in Irish: Hello your majesty Queen Leia, it is an honor to meet you... this is my escort and cosuin , Poe Dameron, the head of Jakku's flying department )
The queen smiled at her "is deas bualadh leat chomh maith ... Ach is féidir liom Creid againn ar fad a labhairt Béarla, tá sé i bhfad níos éasca más rud é nach miste leat" she chuckled .
(Irish : it is nice to meet you as well...But I do Believe we all speak english , it's much easier if you do not mind)
"Oh , I am so sorry your majesty... From what I've read the native language of Alderan's people on Naboo they speak Irish" Rey said softly .
"Only on certain circumstances... But feel free to speak it if you would like... My son doesn't speak it as much as I would like... Speaking of which ... R2 where is he?" The Queen Leia asked a droid .
"I'm right here mother" a young man said . Poe was right. He was tall , most likely 6'3 or 6'4 and he had broad shoulders and a larger masculine build to him. He was handsome too ... Very handsome ... Strangely handsome.
He was pale skinned , which she found strange since the sun seemed to beam easily on Naboo. He had dark black eyes , that were some how soft and a larger nose. His hair was much longer than she expected. But it was a ravenous color that bounced off the lights above.
"You must be Princess Reyhanne... You may call me Kylo Ren"he said and bowed , Rey let out her hand and he kissed her knuckles softly. "And may I ask who you are" he looked at Poe .
"This is my cousins and escort , Poe Dameron ... He is the head of Jakku's flying department" Rey said.
"Nice to meet you" poe let out his hand. Kylo took it and shook his hand in a mainly way.
•[•]•
Rey was in her new quarters , Poe was with her talking with her.
"What did you think of him?" Rey asked as she took her crown off and placed it on the stand in front of her.
"He's tall... I'll give him that... Other than that ... You could do better" he smirked .
"What's that supposed to mean?" She raised an eyebrow.
"He's pale ... Like unhealthily pale... Almost sick ... His hair is almost as long as yours" which was clearly a joke since his reached her ears fanned out while hers was almost to the floor. "And his nose -"
"What about his nose ?" She asked her cousin .
"Nothing ... I just hope it doesn't get in the way when you're kissing on your wedding night" Poe chuckled. She grabbed her fan and slapped his arm.
She didn't like how her cousin was speaking of him , she found him untraditionally attractive, quite handsome in her opinion and clearly others if girls had told Poe how handsome he was.
