Ben woke up without Rey in his arms , he moved his body and sat up to see that her clothes still laid on the floor and the door open.

He threw his boxers and pajama bottoms on and walked out to hear the piano in his living room being played .

He smiled when he noticed that Rey was writing music . "Whatc'a writing?" He asked .

"Hmm? Oh ... Just ... Nothing" she said blushing from the piano bench .

Ben came over and sat with her on the piano bench and placed his hands on the piano , reading the music she had written.

"You make me feel like I'm loosing my virginity ... The first time , every time , when you're touching me" he sang from the sheet .

"It's embarrassing I know " she sighed with her face flushed red.

"It's not ... It's good Rey... Maybe if it's was a bit faster ... Not a ballad but more of a dance song... We could even try and finish it in time for our new album" Ben told her taking his hands off the keys .

"I don't know ... It's ... I don't want to share this .." She grabbed the sheet music and gathered it . "At least not yet"

"What do you mean you don't want share this ... The music or ... you and me?"

"Both" she noticed his face fall but she grabbed his hand "I just don't want people making their living off my dating life ... I don't even want the band to know ... Or Snoke , he'll make us sing some cheesy duet to milk money off us ... I just want you and me" she leaned and kissed his lips softly. "Is that okay Ben?"

"If that's what you want" he said turning his body and placing his arms around her .

Rey smiled and began to play with his black hair and straddle his lap.

"You want to be really reckless ?" Ben asked.

"We are NOT eloping" she said .

"No ... How about that tattoo ? I have a design I think would work for you... If you want to "

"I'd love too" she gushed and kissed him again .

"Though I do like you in your underwear and my old t-shirt straddling my lap more" he said with a smirk .

"Late Ben" she kissed his cheek.

"Is this gonna hurt?" Rey asked as the lady was wiping down her skin near her inner elbow.

The lady and Ben looked at each other and smiled . "Don't worry Rey ..." Ben sat down next to her . "She's gonna draw it with a sharpie first so she has an outline ..." He said with his Starbucks in his hands .

"Okay... " she said and the lady took off her sharpie cap and began to draw.

"You can't look" Ben said .

"What ? I need to be able to look if I want to see what will be on my body FORVER !"

"You'll love it" he said .

The lady finished and called Ben over to approve the sketch before she started inking.

"Great" Ben smiled and then went back to sit with Rey.

"All done" the lady said wiping off the loose ink . "There " she pointed Rey to the mirror .

Ben helped Rey get up and put his hands over her eyes and guided her to the mirror .

"3,2,1 look" Ben smiled taking his hands off her face .

"Oh my god !" She said smiling at the ink on her inner elbow .

"Like it?" He asked .

"Ben it's beautiful" she smiled softly tracing her hand around its design.

"I'm glad you like it" he said and she leaned to kiss his cheek.

"I love it!" She grabbed her phone and took a picture then posted it on Instagram .
