Rey's POV - -

I woke up to sun streaming through the lone window. And no warmth next to me. I looked over and saw the door connecting this room to the room next to us was open. I smiled and got up and got dressed.

I walked out to see two figures sitting on the ground. The younger one looked at me when I came out.

" mama, " I knelt down to embrace the four year old boy, with black hair, and with green eyes and freckles to match mine, that was running to greet me.

"Good morning Luke." I said to him as I hugged him.

"Daddy's teaching me to use the force."

"Oh really, does this lesson include throwing rocks?" I kissed him on the head and looked over at Ben.

"No," he said laughing. He got up.
" go practice Luke. "

"Okay daddy. " he went over to the water and sat down with his sister.

"Good morning you." I said to him. He kissed my forehead and wrapped his arms around me as we watched our son try to levitate rocks.

As I watched him I realized that for the first time I didn't feel alone.

And for the first time....

I felt....

At peace.

The End.
