Chapter 8

Rey's P.O.V.

We spent the entire rest of the day training, working on different ways to lift it and throw things with the force, it was probably the most fun I've had in awhile. Ben also taught me how to do that pain thing, we've been working on that for a few days and I just finally got it right.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The days have been going by faster and I think I'm going to talk to him about going home soon. I get up from my journal, I just finished logging my last day of progress for bringing him back. Hopefully all will go to plan. I find him outside working, on a ship?

I walk towards him and clear my throat,"um Ben ?"

"Yes Rey" he asks with a bit of annoyance

"Um where did you get this ship from?" I ask out of curiosity

"Is that really what you came to ask me ?" He sighs

I scoff, geeze what's his problem? "No but I would like to know, out of curiosity. "I mumble.

I stand there rocking back and forth on my toes with my hands behind my back like a little kid.
He moves away from the spot he was working on and I try to hold in a laugh by slapping a hand on my mouth. He doesn't seem to notice and continues on.

"I got this ship from a guy in town while you were asleep last night." I nod

"Well uh I figured you were ready to go home and honestly so am I"

I grin ear to ear, and he returns with a disgusted look.

" why would you ask the question to answer you already know, scavenger?" he spits venomously

i stop and stare at him 

" because i miss the base and i didnt want to leave without you, and i thought you might have had a change of heart "i mumbled not even sure of my own words

" i will never change rey, i am not ready to go, i probably will never be ready so if youd like to leave please be my guest" he turns back to the ship seemingly done with the conversation 

" really youd let me go just like that?" i question a little hurt he would say that, but not fully surprised 

" of course i would, i said i would teach you, which i did and im done so if youd like to leave than go ahead, but when my mother tries to make you come back and get me, do me a favor and dont." he spits 

why are you like this you let someone in and then get scared and push them right back out 

" because rey im better off alone" he huffs moving to the other side of the ship

" what do you mean youre better off alone ben, honestly who has stuck that in your head, you are worse when you are alone, you hate yourself the most when youre alone" i cross my arms and move to the other side of the ship to stand beside him 

" whatever rey just leave alright, stop bickering with me youre acting like a child !" he yells at me as he shoves my shoulder making me stumble back

" im acting like a child, oh im acting like a child are you kidding i literally had to play babysitter with you ren, your mother made me pick you up, i wanted to get this over with but you always have to drag things out !" i scream my voice getting higher with each word 

" why did you do it then you rey huh, you dont have to be pushed around all the time you dont have to fix everyone, you just dont deserve it you idiot!" his eyes became black and his face was getting redder by the second and i couldnt stand looking at him having his stupid tantrum
