It was the next morning, Rey had her cup of coffee and she drank her large latte as she sat down, today Lucas was going to be questioned, Lucas knew Jesse but he didn't know Gwen, nor did Rey.
"All rise for Judge Christopher Jackson... Case number 46810, Benjamin Solo against Reyhanne Kenobi for custody of Lucase Kenobi"
They began soon and then Phasma called Lucas to the stand. Rey gave him a small smile as he took his seat."Lucas, you're 15... What do you do in your spare time?" She asked.
"I play piano-"
"Did you want to play or your mother forced you to ?" She asked.
"I wanted to.. my mom said I could only play classical... But I've learned some rock and punk songs as well.."
"Lucas, what did your mother tell you when you were growing up about your father?" she asked him and then the sky outside began to grow grey.
"My mom told me his name was Adam, and that he was a strong solider she had met one day when she was out of town. Throughout her pregnancy she and him wrote each other, but he died in a plane crash over seas." he said.
"Did you ever question your mother's answer?" She raised an eyebrow.
"I wondered if he looked like me, never if my mother wasn't being honest...My mother would never do anything to hurt me" he said.
"Do you like your father?"
"He's cool... A couple times since he's been here I've ditched piano practice and we would go hang out, listen to music, get food... He calls me every morning and every night when Mom is asleep... He asks how my days has been.. I like him" he told her.
"Does your mother work a lot ?" She asked.
"Yes... She's assistant mayor, she has to go places, usually the afternoons.."
"What about night time?"
"Sometimes, but she usually has Uncle Poe and Uncle Finn or Grandpa Ben with me-"
"Usually... does your mother leave you alone often for work?"
"Rarely-"
"How many times out of the month ? Just an guess" she said.
"out of 30 days... Maybe about 12 or so" he sighed.
"How long will she leave you alone?"
"From the time she leaves in the morning till around 1 or 2... When things are messed up at city hall and all"
"So she leaves you alone from around the time she leaves , probably around 7ish to 1 to 2 in the morning?" she asked him.
"Not often-"
"But she does?" Phasma smirked.
Lucas sighed "Yes"
"No further questions" Phasma smirked at Jesse and then sat down and took a nice long sip of her coffee.
Jesse stood up and walked near Lucas. "Lucas, who would you be happy living with?" he asked.
"Objection!" Phasma yelled.
"Sustained" the judge.
"Lucas, would you rather live with your mother or your father?" he asked.
"I mean I love my mom with all my heart, but, I wanna know my dad..." he said.
"But would you rather have stability or a new stepmother every other year?" he asked.
"the stability" he said and sighed "but that doesn't mean I don't wanna know my dad" he said.
"So who do you pick your mother or your father?" he asked.Lucas looked at his mom then back at Ben then at Rey. "No further questions" he said and took his seat.
"Thank you both ... I will have my verdict tomorrow morning... You're all dismissed" he banged his gavel and walked out. Lucas walked over to Ben and hugged him quickly , he nodded his head and smiled. He then walked over to Rey.
"Mom? Dad and his parents are having dinner together, can I go with them?" he asked.
"You need to be home by 10, no later or your phone is mine" she said . He nodded and hugged her than walked over to Ben where Leia and Han were.
She watched them walk off then Jesse grabbed her hand. "Don't worry Rey" he squeezed her hand.
"I'm not worried" she said and then they walked out to his car. The sky was grey and the clouds were dark.
"It's gonna rain soon... we should get you home" he said and kissed her forhead. She nodded and then he drove to her little blue house with the cherry tree in the front and the white picket fence on Gilmore Street. "I'll see you tomorrow , I love you" he said when he pulled up.
"See you tomorrow... Bye" she kissed his cheek and walked to her front door. She was nervous for the verdict , Jesse asked Lucas all the wrong questions.. and that could mean he could be taken away from her.
